Oh no! After I Reincarnated, My Moms Became Son-cons!

I hugged Nier who was curled up in my embrace crying due to overjoy. I stroked her head and back while she gripped my clothes tightly. In my arms, she excitedly murmured: “My child…… My child with his majesty…… My child with his majesty…… Finally…… We finally have a child…… Your child……”

I stroked her back as I nodded with a smile. I said: “That’s right, that’s right, Nier, our child. This is our child. I told you didn’t I? I told you we’d definitely have a child.”

“Uhm! Uhm! Our child. Our child…… Your majesty, this is our child……”

Nier hugged me tightly, wiped the tears at the corners of her eyes, looked up and kissed my lips with excitement. We kissed each other passionately. I was a lot more excited about Nier’s pregnancy than Lucia’s because it was harder for Nier to get pregnant. Further, descendants had more meaning for humans. News that Nier was pregnant virtually shocked everyone in the palace.

Even the empress was so excited her hands shook, not knowing what she should do. I could only pray that mom wouldn’t make Nier that soup. She’ll die. And it’ll be one corpse but two lives.

Nier released me and then wiped the corners of her mouth. She looked at me with puppy-eyes and softly asked: “Dear… are you going to the desert? I heard it from Freya. You wanted to go to the desert to find something, right? I don’t really know what you’re doing… but… do you have to leave?”

I shook my head and hugged her tighter. I replied: “No, I’m not going anywhere anymore. I’m not going to the desert anymore. I’ll stay by your side. I’m just going to stay with you and our child.”

Those were honest words. Nier wasn’t pregnant yet when I was starting to get ambitious. I know that Nier can look after herself, plus she has the empress and Freya, so I could leave her here and head to the desert alone. But, not now. She’s pregnant now. She’s carrying our child so I can’t let Nier stay here alone with our child, and there’s no way I can drag her along with me. I need to stay by her side. They are my most cherished treasures.

I never even had a girlfriend, but I was now a father. How could I ditch my wife and child? A man’s ambition is flimsy in front of his family. A man feels more accomplished if he can put a smile on his family’s face than being way out somewhere in the world. Put another way, a man’s career pursuits are just for the sake of giving his family a better living standard and home.
