zChapter 86 - Extra Volume 2 Chapter 1 – Child-making Competition (1/2)

It’s been a while since my father gave me the throne.

At first, I was puzzled by a lot of things a king has to do, but I was able to digest my work in a more stable fashion eventually.

It was all thanks to the increased number of officials employed in the castle.

“With the population steadily increasing, the number of travelers visiting us has increased too”

Sitting at the office desk, I looked at the documents at hand.

Various information my retainers had brought together was recorded there.

Not only the population of the country, but also the progress level of our businesses has increased too.

Based on the report, the number of foreigners visiting our country has more than doubled compared to the last time.

“Though the numbers weren’t so great as it was originally small, once these people know this is a good place, more and more people will come.”

I intended on bringing up tourism as a new industry in this country.

This kingdom is surrounded by forests all around, so I can’t just open up an industry here, where people are opposed to destroying nature.

This leads to the reason to develop it as a tourist attraction, so it won’t lose its original shape.

If you walk a little from the town, there are various places such as hot springs and others that will surely catch your attention here.

“For the purpose of the development of the forest, the construction of a tourism facility is needed. We don’t have enough hands, so I’m afraid I have to leave this to the elves”

Elves have higher physical capabilities than humans.

Even only a few of them can work at the same level as a heavy industrial machinery.

In order to proceed with the plan, it was necessary to increase the number of subordinates.

“Thanks to that I was able to make important decisions and orders at ease”

There is also paperwork to go alongside it, but based on the quantity, it will be finished in an hour.

After that, I’ll give instructions to my subjects.

Then we’ll proceed to check for any kind of fraudulent activities.

Well, most of them were left to my subjects.

What I’m focusing right now? In a sense, the most important part as a King.

It’s to make an heir.

In other words, having sex with Cecil and the others.

It seems that my father had a hard time making a child after getting older, so it was strongly recommended to me, who is still at my youth, to have one this early.

Well, my father was in the war with the demons when he was still young, so he had no time for it back then.

However, the issue of lack of successor really gave him a lot of trouble.

Because of this, I was told to make a child early, and I decided to do so.

“The queens including Cecil cooperated with me, and so four of them are now pregnant.

Cecil, Fran, Helena and Effie.

“It was Cecil who became pregnant first. I remember Father being really overjoyed by this”

Because of their long lifespan, Elves have a low fertility rate.

To be honest, I though Fran or Helena would be first, but it really betrayed my expectations.

Of course, both of us were happy and blessed by my subjects and the people.

Now we’re just entering the period of stability.

“Then, it’s followed by Fran, Helena and finally, Effie”

Just telling you, spirits have a longer lifespan than elves, and it is even common for them to have a child born once in a hundred years.

Moreover, it is a child with me, an elf, a race with a low fertility rate and a long lifespan too.

I think I’m probably the first in this world.

I’m looking forward to seeing what kind of child will be born.

Still, I couldn’t help to be bothered. Will he or she spout wings at the back too?

These three girls too, are quietly resting in bed for now.

Helena was really anxious, but she settled down after visiting her many times.

For Fran and Effie, a specialized doctor is on watch so it’ll be alright.

“I’m finally going to become a father……I still can’t believe it”

I leaned on my back and think, but nothing comes in my mind.

After a few minutes, upon realizing it’s useless to think further, the door of my room was knocked at once.

“Come in”

As a king, I shall do my best to show my dignity from now on.

However, because my previous life is that of a commoner, I don’t really look very cool.

This is one of my present troubles.

I was severely lacking compared to the Kings of other countries who are full of dignity.

“It is I. I’m coming in”

The one who opened the door was Beatrice.

The Demon Lord……though she’s the same as me in position, she acts as a Queen Consort in this castle.

Though the Demons decide the King by their strength, she has not only the ability but also the talent and intelligence to do so.

As for me, I want her to stay as a Demon Lord all the time.

Even some of my behavior as a king was taught by Beatrice.

“Allan, are you done with your affairs today?”
