One more month after.
A day with strong snow.
Sylphy went into labor.
There were no particular problems, it was a normal delivery.
It was neither a breech nor premature birth as well.
If there was a problem, it would just be to the level of the snow being too high, so going to call the doctor wouldn't make it in time.
If it were my previous life then that would be something to panic over I'm sure, but reliably in my house there is Lilia.
For she who has an abundance of experience as a midwife, even without me asking anything, she quickly moved together with Aisha following her orders.
While teaching Aisha the process, Lilia carefully said each thing one at a time.
Just in case, if anything comes up Roxy and I are on standby at the side.
There's a big difference between being able to use healing magic and not being able to use it in an emergency after all. [2]
Even though I say that, I was completely spaced out at the time.
Something like healing magic was nowhere near entering my mind.
I was doing my best just tightly holding Sylphy's hand as she was suffering.
"Seeing Rudeus-sama right now and it reminds me of the lady..the time of Norn-sama's delivery."
After hearing Lilia speak those words I remembered the past.
Norn was a breech birth, both the mother and child were in a dangerous condition.
Paul was useless and just got all nervous on his own.
That time I moved calmly, but right now I'm in this state.
That I was able to handle things well as a child are the same whether it be this world or my previous life.
"However, please rest easy. Rudeus-sama. Sylphy-sama is fine. There's nothing to worry about all."
While saying that Lilia indifferently continued her work.
That handling was enough to be charmed by.
Even after being told it was fine, my trembling wouldn't settle.
Holding onto Sylphy's hand, calling out "hihhiffu", and wiping the sweat from her forehead were all I could manage to do.
Sylphy was making a painful face, but after looking at me in a fluster she giggled a bit and smiled.
"Umm..It would be better for Rudi to relax a bit more."
Aisha suddenly whistled out those words.
Lilia hit Aisha's head with a [peshiri]. [3]
Seeing that Sylphy lightly smiled.
"Nn!!?"
The instant the place loosened up the wave came.
"Sylphiette-sama. Okay, please take a deep breath."
"Nn..!"
I quietly watched over as Sylphy gave it her best.
The only things coming out from my mouth were just the words of give it your best.
I did have the feelings that I needed to do something, but I couldn't do anything.
In rhythm with Lilia's voice heaving, Sylphy made a painful face.
It was born.
The baby was safely born into this world raised an energetic first cry.
It's a girl.
With the same color of hair as me, it's a cute girl.
She was held in Lilia's arms and then passed over to Sylphy.
Sylphy embraced the baby and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank goodness..her hair, isn't green."
Hearing those words that Sylphy whispered out I caressed her head.
Sylphy's beautiful white hair.
It used to be emerald green hair.
"..I guess so."
Even if the child was born with emerald green hair I had no intention of blaming Sylphy.
Obviously.
In my regards, the emerald green of this world is one of my favorite colors after all.
Green is Sylphy's color and it's also Rujierd's color.
Even Roxy's hair color, in some light it reflects as if it shines emerald green.
I like the color green.
If they're going to discriminate against emerald green, then even if the enemy is the world I'll show you.
"Good work, Sylphy."
"Yeah."
