Reborn as a Holy Knight (Remake) WN Extra Story 1 (Patreon)

Valiant Novels 5th Anniversary Short Story – 5 Years of Child Making – Part 1

Today is Emmy and I’s 5th anniversary.

Because of my position as a holy knight who has relationships with many people and procreates children, Emmy and I are not married.

So we have made the day we met our “anniversary” of sorts.

As usual, I travel around the world, fulfilling my mission and siring children with many different women.

But today was the only day I couldn’t bring myself to have sex with other women because it was our anniversary, so I gave Xaneela’s blessing to several men to help them regain their virility. Still, more people wanted it than I expected, so I ended up being late.

“Xaneela, please!”

I ran through the darkening city to the temple and prayed to Xaneela, the goddess of wealth and fertility.

[Good work. You’re going back to Emmy’s place, aren’t you?]

“Yes.”

Xaneela’s authority had been strengthened, probably thanks to the increase in her followers as a result of my mission.

Thanks to that, I can now use the teleportation function more freely than before to teleport to any temple that has her enshrined.

[Then let’s go!]

The scenery shimmered, and my vision was bathed in light.

When the light faded, I found myself standing in a chapel in the town of Lambda.

“Welcome back, Sir Alf.”

I turned at the sound of a soft female voice, and there was Alma, the priestess of this temple.

She must have known I was coming back today and had come to welcome me, as she did every year.

“I’m home, Alma.”

“You’re home very late this year.”

“Yes, it took me a while to get here. Have you been waiting for me all this time?”

“No, I received an oracle from the Goddess some time ago.”

“Ahaha, I see.”

Why do I have the feeling that the oracle is a kind of call bell now?

[You’re just behind the times, Alf]

(Shut up.)

“I’ll go then.”

“Yes. Please come back and see her again.”

Saying this, Alma patted her slightly swollen belly.

She was now pregnant with her third child.

The father, of course, was me.

“Yes. Take care, Alma. And good night.”

“Good night too, Alf.”

After leaving the temple, I ran through the town and managed to get home before the sun went down.

“I’m home. Sorry, I’m late.”

Emmy stood up and smiled at me.

“Welcome home, dear.”

This moment is good, no matter how many times I experience it.

I reheated the rest of the dinner I had prepared for today and ate it.

I felt sad because I wanted to eat it with Amber, but it was my fault for being late.

I’ll save the fun for tomorrow morning.

“Thank you for the food. It was delicious.”

“As expected of Auntie’s cooking.”

The food for the day was prepared by the cook at “Cat’s Forehead”. Cat’s Forehead is the name of Karina’s inn.

Emmy is good at everything, but cooking is the one thing she can’t do.

So I am basically responsible for the meals in our house.

Since I am away from home most of the time, I try to prepare as much food as possible, but there is a limit to what I can do, so I have the others prepare it for her at the inn.

I’ve managed to teach her how to make baby food, which is just mashing and boiling ingredients, but when it comes to seasonings, there’s nothing I can do.

I suspected she might be cursed, but Xaneela told me she just has hopelessly bad taste.

So what?

Emmy’s a good wife and mother, even if she can’t cook.

Besides, it would be more endearing if she had a flaw or two.

After dinner, we sat side by side on the living room sofa and had a few drinks.

We were both dressed in loose nightwear.

“I’m sorry, I came home in a hurry, so I didn’t bring any souvenirs.”

I really wanted to buy something to remember the day, but the shops were all closed when I was released.

I should have bought something beforehand, but yes. I was careless not to see this coming.

That’s probably why I wasn’t popular in my previous life.

“It’s all right. I’m already glad that you’re by my side like this.”

Emmy said this to me in a tone that said she really did not mind.

I felt even more sorry.

“But I want to make it up to you. Is there anything you want?”

As I asked, Emmy looked up and saw me.

Her gaze was somehow hot.

“That… Amber’s not a handful anymore, so… maybe it’s time to get a second one?”

My heart jumped at the words.

My arm around her shoulder stiffened as well.

It wasn’t that we hadn’t had sex.

But with the responsibilities of raising Amber and my mission, it had become much less frequent.

And unlike other women, my skills as a Holy Knight didn’t work on Emmy, so having sex didn’t necessarily mean she’d get pregnant.

“Me too. I thought it was time I wanted one too…”

Still, if we both wished hard enough, the chances of conceiving a child would increase with the blessing of Gigliola, the Goddess of Love.

I want to have another child with Emmy.

With this wish, I held her body close to mine.

She leaned against me without resistance, but then she looked up.

Her eyes were on the bedroom.

“Amber is asleep.”

“Then we’ll do it here.”

She nodded silently and put her arms around me, bringing her face close to mine.

We closed our eyes in silence, and our lips slowly met.
