I Was Chosen as the Saint’s Husband

239 – Part 2, Episode 67, Clear skies after the rain.

About a week has passed since I went on vacation.

Since the attendants and I start working next month, we are resting at home for the rest of this month.

Since I have no time to rest, I am taking care of Luna diligently.

If your wife goes out to work, it’s natural for you to stay at home and take care of your children, right?

I didn’t notice it when the mite was crying, but my daughter, who can talk and walk freely, seemed quite busy taking care of her.

He is so curious that he has become a child who cannot rest unless he explores every corner of the house.

Is it that much fun?

Since I moved here, I’ve been wandering around and seeing things whenever I have time…

“Dad!! Peck!!”

“Where? Bathhouse?”

Luna came up by elevator and pointed to the bathhouse with her finger.

Luna has never used the bathhouse on the 5th floor before, and this is her first time coming up here, so she seems to find it interesting.

For reference, after Luna was born, we called in carpenters to install a door on the stairs.

A safety device was installed to prevent Luna from falling down the stairs.

Well… as long as that bear spirit is with you, you won’t get seriously hurt.

Rather than thinking about it and regretting it because you didn’t act, it’s much better to sigh that it’s a waste of money because you don’t have it, right?

“Hmm… It’s still too early for Luna…”

“I want to go in!!”

It’s still too early for Luna to go to the bathroom.

Instead, I fill the baby bathtub in the shower room on the first floor with water and let the baby take a bath.

The entire bathtub is slippery.

In particular, because the bathtub was quite deep, I had no intention of bringing him to the bathtub until he was at least 5 years old.

I can’t help it.

Anyway, I can’t take a bath because the maids drained all the water while cleaning.

I have to go in a little bit, show the inside, and then come out.

With that in mind, I grabbed Luna and held her in one arm.

“Are you just showing me? There’s no water inside anyway, so I can’t take a bath.”

“huh!!”

After confirming that he nodded energetically, I went inside.

Luna, who learned that there is nothing worse in this world than lying to her mother, must have understood.

Jump up! He made a noise and entered the bathtub.

All the water had been drained and the door was open to let out moisture, so the floor wasn’t that slippery.

Large bath and shower area.

And even a wet sauna.

And to the small courtyard in the center.

I really like the bathroom at my house…

The resort at the resort was pretty good, but I think it wasn’t as good as my house.

“Wow! It’s big!”

“Isn’t it big? When Luna grows up, she can take a bath here with her mom and dad.”

I’m already looking forward to it.

I can’t join you right now because I can’t even stand up in the bath, but…

Because I’m short.

Even if you stand up, your head will be submerged.

Ah, it’s kind of cute.

Should I take you into the bathhouse?

“Daughter, just stand here.”

“cellar?”

I don’t know why, but Luna nodded and said that she understood because it was her father’s request.

They stood motionless and angled, as if a new soldier assigned to his unit was in an unmoving position.

Of course, there is no need to turn on the water.

Our bathtub always automatically fills with water to a certain depth, so you can compare Luna’s height based on that line.

Hmmmm… of course…

It might be difficult for Luna to get into this bathtub yet.

“Come on, let’s go out~”

“Boo…”

I feel like I’m a little dissatisfied, but there’s no point in having it in the bathroom.

I patted his back and lured him outside, drank a bottle of milk, and took the elevator down to the third floor.

Luna’s favorite places in the house are her room and the living room.

And my watch room and the rest area outside.

The shelter is the one I created a while ago.

“Luna, do you like watches?”

I asked him just in case, and he shook his head.

Well, there’s no way a girl would be interested in watches.

So why do I like clock rooms?

When Luna comes here, rather than looking at the clock, she lies down on the sofa and gently closes her eyes.

As if it were a room where he could rest comfortably.

There doesn’t seem to be anything Luna would like.

“Hehe, it’s cold~”

Luna, who entered the clock room, smiled brightly, asked to chill, and lay down on the sofa as usual.

Does cold feel good?

It is currently early February on Earth, so the weather outside is very cold.

So, if you want to enjoy the coolness, you should go outside, not in the clock room.

Hmm…I’m not sure.

My daughter comes from my DNA, but I don’t understand.

Luna lay down and her eyes were already closed.

Since it was obvious that she wouldn’t sleep here anyway, I gently covered Luna’s body with the black blanket that was next to her and went outside.

After sleeping for about two hours, he will go to the living room or kitchen and say he is hungry and ask for a snack.

I guess I should ask the maids to prepare hotcakes today.

***

The next day, after having such a happy day.

Rain, which rarely falls in the Church of Christ, began to fall again.

It’s raining in winter.

It made sense that it would rain in the summer, but I never imagined it would rain in the winter.

The rain fell hard, as if warning us that the peaceful days we had had up to now were the eve of the storm.

Lots of thunder and lightning…

Well, it only rained for one day.

When I woke up the next morning, the sun was shining and the sand grains were sparkling.

But, something unexpected happened.

They say babies always come to couples unexpectedly, right?

Our Luna was like that, and our second child, who will be born later, will be like that too.

No one knows when their child will come visit them.

We can only guess.

Naturally, the moment for Eri and Dave’s child was also very sudden.

I thought today would be a normal day, but Eri’s labor pains began.

…it’s too early.

The baby started to come out before the 10th month was complete.

premature birth.

If a baby is born before reaching 9 months, it is called premature birth.

This week was Eri’s 33rd week.

I heard that on Earth, there are extremely premature babies born after barely reaching 22 weeks, but Earth and this world are very different, even if the textures are different.

First of all, there is no incubator.

In the district, incubator treatment is provided to children under 34 weeks of age.

A machine that creates an environment similar to that of a mother’s stomach.

That incubator does not exist in this world.

“Ah!! What should I do!!”

Dave has been holding his head in worry for fear that something might go wrong with the child.

I don’t even know if such a thing exists because there are no incubators in this world to begin with, but that doesn’t really mean much at this point.

Even if there is no incubator, there are premature babies.

Dave and Eri, who grew up in an orphanage, would be very aware of the many premature deaths of premature babies.

First, I calmed down Dave, who was running wild.

Since we couldn’t calm him down humanely, we asked Yongyong to cast a sleeping spell on him.

Eri is only getting more anxious because of you.

Since there was no need for such an idiot, I put him to sleep and asked Aria and Ether to leave him under the bed where Eri was lying.

Still, it would be better to sleep next to you than to sleep outside.

After seeing the priests dragging Dave in, he went to the kitchen and grabbed the top bottle of elixir.

This is the only thing I can use.

And since there is purification and recovery magic, I think it will work out somehow.

The incubator must first be sterile on the inside.

This happened because I could make it sterile by using purification with my holy sword…

Humidity and temperature.

This is okay because people who do livestock farming also use magic scrolls and use them accordingly.

“I think this is enough to make an incubator…”

A glass box that can accommodate one child.

And the small bed Luna used when she was young.

The small bed was small enough to fit in a glass box.

Lastly, air.

There is no problem as you can inject air from the room that has been purified.

This can also be easily solved with magic scrolls and magic stones.

“Whew… that’s a good thing.”

You’re lucky I have you.

If it wasn’t for that, it would have been a really big problem.

With that in mind, I took the elevator up with the assembled incubator.

The labor was still going on, and in the meantime, I sat down with the thought of cleaning up the incubator and drilling holes in the glass box and attaching hinges.

“I feel sorry for Stella~”

He said that when Eri’s child is born, he will love it like his own child.

Unfortunately, I think he will be disappointed that he cannot be by his side because he has entered a cardinal’s meeting.

And after some time.

Eri’s screams stopped.

Same as with Stella.

It looks like he finally passed out at the end.

But… there was one thing different…

Why can’t I hear the baby crying…?

10 seconds… 20 seconds… time passed, and when about 25 seconds had passed, the maid inside came out with a pale face.

“Yes… Your Majesty… A big problem… A big problem has occurred… The child… has lost his breath… and the mother…”

Her words made my mind go blank for a moment.

The reason why no crying was heard, and the screams suddenly stopped.

The baby isn’t breathing… and the mother…?

What is that…

Let’s calm down… Let’s calm down…

And think! Think!

Let’s do the best we can in this situation.

Isn’t that my duty in bringing in Mr. Eri as a guardian priest?

As I thought about that, my head instantly became cold.

To the point where I wonder if I’ve ever been this cold before.

First of all, I have a total of 5 bottles of elixir.

I quickly grabbed a bottle from the box next to me and ran into the room where the mother and child were.

Even as I ran in, I didn’t want to waste time, so I broke the glass of the ampoule bottle I was holding in my hand.

Because I broke it so hard, there may be glass fragments in it, but they will disappear when I use purification later, so I didn’t worry too much about it for now.

As you enter the room, a large curtain catches your eye.

As I grabbed the curtain and tore it down, the attendant priests were shedding tears and casting a healing spell.

Prioritize Eri over the child.

It may be difficult for the child, but the will to save the mother at all costs shined on my retina as vividly as a burning flame.

First of all, feed the elixir first.

He pushed aside the attendant priests who were casting recovery magic and poured the elixir into Eri’s mouth and the baby’s mouth.

It may not be good to touch someone’s body carelessly, but since it is an emergency, I hope you understand.

We massaged Eri’s throat and the baby’s throat to help open the blocked esophagus.

Did he notice it when he saw it?

The attendants began massaging Eri and the baby’s esophagus.

I don’t know the identity of the potion.

However, I guess he thought it would have meaning given what I made him drink.

The elixir was made to drink.

The effect will occur in at least 30 seconds.

Even a dead person can be revived within 30 minutes.

It will revive all dead brain cells and even restore the cause of death.

Eri will probably return to her pre-pregnancy condition.

I feel a little sorry thinking that way, but there is nothing more important than life.

Then he took out his sword and threw it on the floor.

Since it was our house, I threw it away without a second thought.

And activate purification.

The holy sword glowed white and made the room sterile.

Then he took out a piece of paper from his pocket and wrote a scroll.

This is a bit difficult… but it’s a good thing I learned it in my past life.

And the magic stone… the magic stone…

Ah, here it is.

I tore off the magic stone that was helping the ceiling’s magic power shine and placed it on the scroll on the floor.

Now, in this room, recovery magic will be activated every 5 seconds until all of the magical power of the magic stone is consumed.

And….and then….

All I can do is pray to the goddess.

What if I do this and it doesn’t work…

Those thoughts made the inside of my mind dark, as if a dark curtain had been drawn.
