Chapter 2 Youth
A New Life
The life in Nemophila Kingdom started.
I was surprised when I used Teleportation over from the Moon Palace. I thought I had come to Okaa-san’s room, but the room’s look had changed entirely. I go all around with Okaa-san and take a look to see how it has become.
First, it’s the living room. It has become more than twice as spacious as before, and as for the space where you can have tea, there’s a 3-person sofa with 2 chairs and a table. There’s also a table and a chair like the ones you place in a study. In front of that is a large sliding glass-door, and you have the balcony as well outside of that.
A luxurious king-size canopy bed is placed in the bedroom, and in the toilet, there’s naturally a bidet as well, and it’s separate from the bath. There are two dressing rooms that are linked to the bath, and Okaa-san’s dressing room is fully equipped with both a make-up table and a full-length mirror.
“Okaa-sama. This room transformed quite a bit huh. Is this not wider than 2-rooms-share of the previous room?”
“Eeh, it seems so. It seems they apparently renovated 3-rooms-share huh”
“I somehow, feel bad. It is better to pay for the expenses, no?”
“Tsukuyomi doesn’t have money, right?”
“No. I do. Since the proposer fees have come in from the undergarments’ sales, I already easily have more than the amount that you need to build a house with, you know”
“M-, my! Even though you are still 5 years old huh! But there is no need to pay. They were about to go as far as to build a palace for Tsukuyomi’s sake after all”
At that moment, there was a knock on the door.
“Excuse me. Tsukuyomi-sama. Armeria-sama”
It was the voice of Okaa-san’s maid, Nina.
“Go ahead”
When the door opened, 2 maids came in after Nina. Nina is also not in her shrine maiden’s getup, but is wearing this castle’s maid-use servant-wear.
And then the 3 of their heights are beautifully aligned for some reason. I guess it’s probably about 160 meters.
“Tsukuyomi-sama. Armeria-sama. From today onwards, I will be taking care of your needs with these people and not just by myself”
When the 3 young girls are lined up like this, my attention is drawn to the appearance of Nina, which I wasn’t conscious of until now. Nina has beautiful shoulder-length golden hair with light green eyes. Her small nose and small face give an endearing vibe. I did think of it since some time back, but she’s a very cute girl.
“Ni-, nice to meet you. I-, I am Marquis Noa Richter household’s second daughter, Ria Ri-, Richter”
Ria huh, this girl has bright brunette hair tied on both sides and brown eyes. She’s a refreshing beauty.
“Ni-, nice to m-, meet you. I-, I am Marquis Teo Meier household’s, thi-, third daughter, Mira Me-, Meier”
I wonder what’s Mira’s hair? Golden hair? But it also comes off slightly pink. What beautiful hair. Perhaps it’s hair that the person herself is proud of as well, she has grown it all the way to around her waist. And then her eyes are red.
There are such humans around huh. Because this place is a country to the north, they have lesser melanin, so people like this are born. She’s a pale-skinned beauty with a well-defined nose. But she feels incredibly frightened. I wonder if she has a meek personality?
All the three of them are beauties. Nevertheless. Both the newcomers, they’re beyond nervous. Their voices are shaking, and their knees are also clattering. Their complexions aren’t well either. I have a feeling they likely became like that after seeing my face.
“I see. House Richter and House Meier’s daughters huh. Ria, Mira. I am Armeria. Here is my son, Tsukuyomi. I’ll be in your care from now on, alright”
“Nice to meet you. I am Tsukuyomi”
“Ye-, yes. I-, I will be in your care”
“I-, I will be in your care”
“Nevertheless, is 3 people not a lot?”
“Yes. It is only today that there are 3 people. From tomorrow onwards, each person will rest for 2 days a week, so it will only be once a week where there are all 3 people; most of the time, we will be serving you with 2 people”
“Ria, Mira. How old are the two of you?”
“W-, we are both 15 years old”
“Is that so. And from what time until what time is your respective working period?”
“Er-, erm. Bo-, both of us, will work from the morning, when Tsukuyomi-sama and Armeria-sama wake up, un-, until you go to bed”
“That will be too long. Let’s make one of you work from morning until 16 o’clock, and another one from 11 o’clock. On the day you three are on duty, please make it 2 people from 11 o’clock. Also, when your menstruation comes, please rest for the first and second day”
“Tsu-, Tsukuyomi. I-, in that case, there will end up being only on-, one maid during dinner. Furthermore, uh, ev-, ev-, even rest days for menstruation……”
“That is fine. Right. Okaa-sama”
“Eeh, that will do fine. Ask Nina about those parts beforehand, alright. I’ll also talk to Matilda the head maid about it beforehand afterwards”
“Ye-, yes. As you say”
“As you say”
“Nevertheless, Okaa-sama. Is it normal for a Marquis’ daughter to do maid’s work for the Royal Family?”
“Eeh, it is normal. It’s just that, originally, they would send those who are slightly older and more experienced though”
“Yeah. If both Ria and Mira are 15 years old, then is it not their first time working?”
“Ye-, yes. I-, I think we will be lacking. O-, our sincerest apologies”
“No, I was the one who told Hahaue and had her arrange girls who just came of age”
“Why so?”
“It is because Nina just turned 15 years old, and there is one more reason”
“Eh! Nina. You’re 15 years old?”
“Ye-, yes”
“I mean, you were around since I was born, right?”
“Yes”
“Tsukuyomi. I will talk about that afterwards, alright”
“Huh? Ah. Yes. Understood”
“I think Nina already knows it well, but since Ria and Mira don’t, let’s talk about it from the start beforehand, shall we. Ria, Mira. What kind of things did you hear about Tsukuyomi?”
“Ye-, yes. Tsukuyomi-sama is a God-sama, and on top of that, h-, he is our Saviour”
“I-, I also heard the same. Furthermore, h-, he possesses incredible powers, and h-, he can heal the illnesses of people……”
“Yeah. There are indeed such parts as well huh. But as you can see, his appearance is one who just turned 5 years old. That is how it looks to the two of you as well, right?”
“Ye-, yes. I was very surprised”
“I-, I was really surprised”
Aah, because my appearance is a 5-year-old child, they were so surprised that they ended up shaking huh.
“But, you know. He came here not to be God Tsukuyomi, but to be 5-year-old Tsukuyomi. The inside of Tsukuyomi is actually far older than me, his mother. That’s why I thought Tsukuyomi would end up not being able to be a 5-year-old if the ages of the maids that are always nearby are close”
“So young girls whose mental age is as far apart as possible is better. That’s why, it’s fine even if you girls have no experience as maids. Please don’t be stiff just because Tsukuyomi is a God, I would like you to treat him as a 5-year-old child. I’m sure I’m saying asking for something difficult though”
“Ye-, yes. Understood”
“Yes. I will do my best”
“Nina. As their senior, teach Ria and Mira about Tsukuyomi, alright”
“Yes. Armeria-sama”
“Well then, let’s go and greet Otou-sama and others from now on, shall we”
“Yes”
I brought Okaa-sama and the three maids and entered the saloon. On the way there, Okaa-sama spoke to another maid she was seemingly acquainted with and asked her to call the family to the saloon for her.
When we entered the saloon, the maid in charge of the saloon started making tea right away, and Nina and Ria carried them over for us.
As we were waiting while drinking tea, every member of the Nemophila Royal Family entered the saloon one after another.
“Welcome, Tsukuyomi-sama, Armeria. To our Nemophila Kingdom”
“Otou-sama. It is not Tsukuyomi-sama!”
“Ah! Tha-, that’s right. Oh Tsu-, Tsukuyomi”
“Ojii-sama. Thank you. From here on out, I will be in your care for the 10-year period until I come of age. Also, I am grateful that you arranged such a magnificent room”
“It is nothing. We were supposed to arrange a palace originally after all”
“Again, Otou-sama!”
“Yea-, yeah. Why, sorry”
King Viskam, who’s the King and Okaa-san’s father, has platinum hair with blue eyes like me. He’s a handsome guy with pale skin and a well-defined nose. I guess his age is around fifty-four, fifty-five.
“Armeria. I am so happy, you are back here again”
“Yes, me too. Okaa-sama”
Okaa-san’s mother. Wisteria is a beauty with semi-long golden hair and blue eyes. I suppose she’s likely in her late 40s.
“Speaking of which, it seems Mari gave birth to a boy huh. I heard from Tsukikage”
“Yes. Silenus-okaa-sama. Mari-nee-sama gave birth to Shuukou in August”
“That is also, thanks to Tsukuyomi-sa-, u-, un! Thanks to Tsukuyomi huh”
Queen Silenus is the First Queen and Mari-kaa-sama’s mother. A brunette short-cut hairstyle with brown eyes. I guess she’s probably in her early 50s.
“Silenus-obaa-sama, if you would like, how about going together when I return to the Moon Palace one month later?”
“Eh! Can I go? Ah! But is it through Teleportation?”
“Yes. It is though?”
“B-, but that is……”
“It is instant and doesn’t feel of anything, you know”
“I-, is that so?”
“Eeh, there is nothing to be afraid of”
“Then, maybe I shall ask you to”
“Yes. Please do”
“Tsukuyomi. Is there anything you want to do here?”
Mari-kaa-sama’s younger brother, Stuart-oji-san, takes after Silenus-obaa-san. He has short brunette hair with brown eyes. He looks like a very gentle person. I guess he’s probably in his 30s.
“Oji-sama. Yeah. I want to learn horse-riding from Okaa-sama”
“Aah, that’s nice. Are you going to ride on Sonia together with Armeria? Or shall we arrange a different horse?”
“Yeah. First, I will try asking Sonia. The other horses as well”
“Eh? Ask the horses? is it?”
“Eeh, I am able to talk to animals with Telepathy”
“Eーh! You can talk to animals! Amazing! How nicee～”
“Romy-nee-sama. In that case, how about I act as the intermediary and talk to them? What kind of animals do you want to talk to?”
Romy is an 8-year-old who takes after her father with short-bob-cut brunette hair and brown eyes.
“I want to talk to, the birdie that comes to my room’s window!”
“Aah, birdie is it……that is……”
“Impossible?”
“No, it is possible. But a birdie’s brain is small, so their words are few”
“What is a ‘brain’?”
“It is a spot inside your head, which thinks about and remembers things. Do you not have the feeling that, normally, you think about things with this part of your head?”
“Yeah. I have a feeling that this part becomes hot when I think about things!”
“Eeh, exactly. A human has a big head, so their brain is big as well, and they are able to think about plenty of things and are able to talk. But a birdie has a small head, right? Which is why its brain is also small, and it does not think about things like humans”
“Is that so!”
“But they are able to talk nevertheless. Let’s try talking to the birdie while feeding it next time, shall we”
“Un. Thanks!”
“No problem”
“Anything else other than horse-riding?”
“Yes. I want to learn swordsmanship”
“Hoo! Swordsmanship huh! It is something you would certainly like a boy to do”
“Yes, I was told to go receive training from the Royal Palace Chivalric Order by Gyougetsu-ojii-sama”
“I see. I’ll talk to the Royal Palace Chivalric Order’s captain then”
“Thank you”
“Erm. Tsukuyomi”
“Yes. What is it? Torenia-oba-sama”
Torenia-oba-san has beautiful red hair that grew all the way to her waist with red eyes. Romy’s mother, Shion-oba-san, has elegant golden hair in a bob cut with blue eyes. Both of them are still not in their 30s. They’re beauties with well-defined facial features.
“Erm. It’s about Shion and I. We only gave birth to Annika and Romy. So……”
“You want to conceive a boy?”
“E-, eeh, that is right. Could we ask for your help?”
“Oji-sama. I am going to end up asking something rude since I do not know about the Royal Family, but for the Royal Family’s successor, I think there is already the eldest son, Forlan. Is it alright to conceive even more boys despite so?”
“Aah, it’s fine. Torenia and Shion’s maiden home is of the Duke and Margrave’s heritage, but both families have no successors. That’s why, they’re thinking about the things over on that side”
“Understood. Have the both of you noted in the basal body temperature chart?”
“Yes. Ever since we got it from that Moon Palace’s shrine, we have been continuously recording in it the whole time”
“Eh? Then it has already been close to an entire year? And yet you have not gotten pregnant?”
“No, we have only been recording in the basal body temperature chart”
“Why, have you not had sexual intercourse? Is there something that you do not understand?”
“That is not it. Since we knew that Tsukuyomi-sama was coming as such, we wanted to borrow Tsukuyomi-sama’s strength like Mari-nee-sama”
I wonder if the people of this world have no ‘sexual desires’? I actually find it strange. Why, are they able to stay sexless for an entire year?
“That is what it is huh. I got it. Well then, I will take a look at both of your basal body temperature charts afterwards. Let’s have you have sexual intercourse on the next ovulation day. I will be asking various questions at that time”
“Thank you!”
“Tsukuyomi. You are in front of children, you know”
“Ah! I went and did it again. Sorry. Okaa-sama”
“Now, now, it is not something that both Tsukuyomi and we can get used to right away. Let’s take our time getting used to it, shall we”
“Ojii-sama. Thank you”
“I’m the one to say that. I’m counting Torenia and Shion on you”
“Yes”
“Alright, let’s make tonight’s dinner Tsukuyomi and Armeria’s welcome dinner”
“Uwaーh!”
“It’s a partyy!”
Louisa, Annika, Romy, and Forlan all jumped up together.
If I’m not wrong, Louisa should be 14 years old and will come of age next year. She has semi-long brunette hair and brown eyes. A beauty who takes after her father. Annika is 11 years old with long brunette hair and red eyes, and as expected, she’s a beauty who takes over her father. Forlan is 5 years old like me. He takes after his mother, Audrey. He has golden hair with green eyes.
I wonder how the Royal Family’s people live. For 10 years from here on out. I’ll be living here.
