Chapter 170: Congratulations!

Translated by AmaLynne

“Congratulations.”

“—Huh?”

In a room of the Amemiya residence, Sam and the others who had laid the fallen Lise on the bed had called the family doctor to examine her.

However, upon hearing the doctor’s words, Sam furrowed his brow, approached him in anger, and grasped his collar.

“In what context do you say ‘congratulations’ when someone has collapsed? Huh?”

Not only Sam but also Hanae behind him stared at the doctor quietly.

Günther and Kurando were not present in this scene.

Günther had apparently been tasked by King Clyde to capture Kurando.

Kurando followed Günther and headed to the royal palace.

Mizuki was worried about the fallen Lise, but she was also concerned about her father. Thus, she entrusted Lise to Sam and followed them to the palace.

“I-I apologize, it’s a misunderstanding! I’m sorry, my words weren’t sufficient! There’s nothing wrong with Liselotte-sama! It’s just that she must have collapsed due to being too tense, probably from stress.”

“So, how does that lead to saying congratulations?”

As Sam pressed the doctor for a clear answer, his frustration grew.

Perhaps realizing his own words had been inadequate, the doctor hastily explained,

“—She’s… pregnant.”

“—Huh?”

Sam’s odd exclamation showed he hadn’t understood the doctor’s words.

“Liselotte-sama is pregnant. It’s not surprising she collapsed under stress. Has she been feeling unwell recently?”

“W-Wait, what?”

“Lise was complaining about feeling tired, sleepy. Also, she mentioned having abdominal pain and occasional vomiting.”

In place of Sam, who was flustered and couldn’t comprehend the term「pregnant」, Hanae conveyed Lise’s recent symptoms.

“These are early pregnancy symptoms. It would have been better to consult a doctor at that time. Anyway, she is pregnant. So, I offered my congratulations. I apologize for not explaining properly.”

“Oh, uh, thank you?”

Without fully understanding the situation, Sam managed to thank the doctor just as Lise woke up.

“Uh, uhh.”

Lise regained consciousness.

Sam hurried to her bedside and greeted her.

“Lise-sama, thank goodness! How are you feeling?”

“Oh, right… Kotomi-chan!”

Remembering what happened before collapsing, Lise tried to get up, but Sam held her back.

“Kotomi-chan is safe. She’s resting in the room.”

“And Kurando-sama and Mizuki?”

“After Kurando-sama received treatment from Magnolia-sama, he and Mizuki-sama went to the palace together.”

Sam, too, had been treated by Magnolia.

The previous day, after hearing from her granddaughter, Magnolia had appeared as if she had timed her arrival perfectly, knowing her assistance would be needed. She healed Sam’s wounds.

There was a possibility that she had received orders from the king.

Thanks to that, Sam’s injuries had healed.

“To the palace?”

“It’s a summons from the king. Apparently, Günther also had a duty to escort Kurando-sama to the palace.”

“…I see. I feel bad for Sam, who fought, but I hope the punishment won’t be too severe.”

“I agree. Well, according to Günther, it won’t be too serious. After all, it was only me who was targeted, and in the first place, the Michel family took Kotomi-chan hostage.”

“Yes, that’s true… Speaking of which, are you okay, Sam? Your injuries… they’ve disappeared, you received treatment, right?”

“Don’t worry. I’m completely fine now.”

Sam was relieved that Lise had returned to her usual energetic self.

Hanae patted Sam’s shoulder.

“Sam, but there’s something you need to tell Lise.”

“Oh, right! Lise-sama, it’s amazing! I was so surprised I couldn’t believe it, or well, yeah, that’s right! We need to tell Master and Mistress soon!”

“C-Calm down, Sam. I don’t understand what you’re talking about.”

“That’s because!”

“—Lise is having a baby in her belly.”

“Huh?”

As Sam struggled to articulate his announcement about the pregnancy, Hiren straightforwardly blurted it out.

“Hey, Hanae-sama! Why did you say it before me?”

“You were taking forever to say it, and it was irritating.”

“Oh, come on.”

“Huh? Is it a joke?”

Lise’s eyes widened in disbelief, and she looked around the room until she spotted the doctor. He smiled and bowed to her.

“It’s true. Congratulations on your pregnancy.”

“—Our baby is in my stomach?”

Lise’s voice trembled as she asked to confirm.

Sam answered with a smile.

“Yes! It’s our baby, Lise-sama!”

“But, we haven’t been together for that long…”

“There’s no mistake about the pregnancy. It’s still early, but I can feel the baby’s magical power from Liselotte-sama’s stomach. They will likely be born with magic.”

A single tear rolled down from Lise’s eyes.

“L-Lise-sama!?”

For a moment, Sam worried that Lise wasn’t happy about the pregnancy.

However, her next words would give him a tremendous shock.

“I… I thought I couldn’t conceive. I felt sorry for Sam because of that, but I still wanted to be with you. So, I thought about having other wives too.”

“…You’ve been thinking about that?”

In hindsight, perhaps he could have noticed Lise’s anxieties. Considering her past where she was mistreated due to her inability to have children with Julian, it wasn’t unreasonable for her to believe she couldn’t conceive with him either.

Still, the fact that she wanted to be with him despite that made him happy.

However, it seemed like she had carried this guilt. That’s why she didn’t complain when Kiren and Stella became his fiancées.

(I should have been more considerate of Lise-sama.)

But now, she didn’t need to carry such anxieties any longer.

Because, at this very moment, a new life was growing in her womb.

“Lise-sama, please don’t worry anymore. Even if you have doubts, don’t hide them from me.”

“…Sam.”

“—Thank you, Lise-sama.”

Touched by Sam’s gratitude, tears streamed down from Lise’s eyes.

“Congratulations, Lise.”

Next, Hanae offered her congratulations, wearing a short yet clear smile.

“—Ah, thank you.”

Overwhelmed by the blessings of her fiancé and friend, Lise started to sob.

Feeling her preciousness, Sam gently embraced her with affection.

“Let’s all be happy together, or rather, I’ll make sure we’re happy.”

“—No, I’m already very happy.”

With tears moistening her cheeks, Lise wore her biggest smile yet.
