章節 191: Can’t You Hurry and Come Out Already?
A few days had passed ever since the couple had returned to the human realm. However, everything was eerily peaceful. The enemy hadn't plotted against them at all. Even when Lilica had asked Rena whether the enemy had ordered her to do anything, Rena had told her that there were no orders.
"Kazuya, I think that the enemy might be preparing something big. It's been too peaceful these days." Lilica decided to consult with him.
"I also have a feeling that he's prepared something big. I've already replaced all the servants in this villa to people that can be trusted so there shouldn't be any spies left. In a few days, grandfather will come to the human world to help us search for the enemy. Apparently, grandfather knows who the enemy is." Kazuya replied, trying to make her worries disappear.
"I know but I can't shake this feeling of uncertainty off. I'm scared that I'll wake up one day, not finding you next to me anymore. I still think that staying in the demon realm might be safer. The human world is the enemy's territory after all." Lilica said as she held his hand. She wanted to go back to the demon realm since she felt that there were more people in the demon realm that could protect them.
"In the human realm, the enemy can't just approach us and try to kill us so blatantly using magic. If you're worried, you know you can stay in the demon realm, right? Being too near to the enemy is quite dangerous after all." Kazuya replied. Even though he didn't want to be separated from her, he still wanted her to stay out of harm's way.
"But staying with you makes me feel the most secure. Can't you just let someone investigate instead?" Somehow, she was feeling very insecure. Perhaps it was because she was pregnant.
"I can't. This is part of my responsibility as a prince. When there is danger that is approaching the demon realm, we royal family members have to fight and eliminate any threat as quickly as possible. What are you worried about anyway? I won't just suddenly disappear." Kazuya sighed helplessly. Actually, he could leave the investigating role to the ministers but some of the ministers were already suspected of being a spy so no one could be trusted right now.
Lilica just frowned. She also didn't know what she was so worried about.
"Don't worry. For now, just focus on our cute little twins." Kazuya said in a gentle tone before he bent his head down to kiss her stomach.
Lilica's stomach was bigger than the average since she was pregnant with twins, but it was still a little too small for twins, making Kazuya a little worried. This could mean that their babies wouldn't be so healthy after birth. Not only did Lilica not have enough energy for them, they were going to be premature too, and now, the size of Lilica's stomach was a little worrying. Although the doctor had said that the babies were developing just fine, Kazuya couldn't help but feel worried.
"Okay." Lilica replied as she caressed her protruding stomach lovingly.
"Another 6 months to go… Can't you just hurry and come out already?" Kazuya talked to the babies. If they could quickly come out to see the world, one of his worries would be gone!
Lilica chuckled at his sentence. She also couldn't wait to meet her babies!
"Should we get a doctor to stay in this villa too, just in case?" Kazuya asked as he rubbed her stomach lovingly.
"That might be a good idea. Travelling back and forth every month may increase the risk of miscarriage too. Plus, I don't want to experience the plane being hijacked again. I can just return to the demon realm during the last 3 months of my pregnancy to wait for labor." Lilica agreed.
"Okay. I'll get one of the best imperial doctors to come by next week then." Kazuya then hugged her stomach before he stood up to go eat breakfast. Today was a weekend so they didn't have to go to work. Kazuya had decided to go assist the investigation team today together with the knights. However, he was still worried about Lilica, so he ordered Ven to stay with her at home, guarding her.
After breakfast, Kazuya took off and Lilica was left at home with Ven.
"So, I heard that you won't be going back to the demon realm until the last three months?" Ven asked as the two walked inside the house after seeing Kazuya off.
"Yeah. Why? Sad that you can't meet Tina every month now?" Lilica teased. As Ven was a knight, usually, he wouldn't even have time for his family when they were threats to the demon realm. This meant that he had to accompany Lilica and Kazuya for the whole time, meaning he couldn't go back to meet Ventina in the demon realm until the mission was over or until Lilica decides to go back.
