Rute would probably be the world’s first to use divine power, not holy power, in such a way.
Of course, it was for a good cause!
But I didn’t want to know such detailed circumstances!
“Didn’t you want to enjoy your honeymoon more?”
Jin asked while sipping fragrant tea, having pushed away those unpleasant memories.
Ordel shrugged her shoulders.
“Five years was enough enjoyment. We traveled together a lot, just the two of us.”
The two had traveled everywhere together under the pretext of the Holy Maiden of the Sun God’s imperial tour.
While healing many dying patients, Great Holy Maiden Ordel’s name became even more renowned.
Sometimes they would take leave and venture beyond the Empire to enjoy honeymoon-like travels at secluded duchy beaches.
This continued for five years.
When Ordel finally suggested they should have a child, Rute cried.
He was a little sad that their happy honeymoon life together was coming to an end.
“I thought you might not want to have a child. If Rute didn’t want one, I was fine without children too, so I suggested we just continue living like this.”
Then Rute’s face took on a strange expression.
It seemed his desire to spend a lifetime together and his wish to have a child resembling both of them were split exactly fifty-fifty.
“How about you?”
Jin asked while looking at Ordel’s round belly as she approached childbirth.
Unlike Rute, who usually had firm opinions but couldn’t decide either way this time, it was Ordel who made the decision.
The result was that belly before them now.
“Did you want to have a child?”
Though Ordel had been pregnant for over nine months already, Jin had never asked that question until now.
But thinking she would soon meet her only niece or nephew, she suddenly became curious about her friend’s thoughts.
“You never said you wanted children when we lived on Earth.”
“That’s right.”
Ordel nodded with a smile.
In her first life, second life, and even now.
Jin had never once thought about marrying someone and having children.
So naturally, she rarely discussed such things with Cha Siwon either. But being old friends, she knew that Cha Siwon also had little interest in marriage and childbirth.
Yet now that Cha Siwon had become Ordel, she was married and about to give birth.
Jin was curious when her heart had changed.
“Right, I had no such thoughts on Earth. That’s because I had you. I already had a perfect family, so why would I need anyone else?”
Ah.
Her heart pounded at those completely unexpected words.
Honestly, she had worried that her presence beside Ordel might have interfered with forming a new family.
“Jin, are you crying?”
At her friend’s unexpectedly sincere words, tears welled up before she could stop them.
“Wow, I hardly ever saw you cry when we lived on Earth, but since coming to this world, I see it all the time. I’m really glad we came here.”
“Ahem.”
Embarrassed by her friend’s admiration, Jin quickly turned her head to wipe away her tears.
The tears stopped, but her reddened eyes and nose remained the same.
Jin glared at Ordel, who couldn’t help but laugh loudly.
No matter how much she loved seeing her friend laugh, being laughed at was rather unpleasant.
“This is definitely something I didn’t expect either. I never thought someone as precious to me as you, someone I’d even want to marry, would appear in my life.”
Ordel gently stroked her greatly swollen belly.
“In my entire life, Rute is the only person besides you I’ve wanted to become family with. Well, actually, even when I told Rute I wanted to enjoy our honeymoon more, I wasn’t thinking about children.”
“…”
“But as time passed, I naturally began wanting our child. I became curious how lovely a child resembling both Rute and me would be.”
Ordel saying this looked truly happy.
“…I know.”
Jin nodded with a grumble.
Honestly, Rute’s existence was quite bothersome, as if he had stolen Ordel away.
The only reason she didn’t bother separating them was because her one and only friend was so happy like this.
Of course, if he hurt her even a little, she’d kill him immediately.
Such a man wouldn’t deserve to be by Ordel’s side.
“When this child is born, I’ll inevitably treasure the child more, but still, Jin.”
Ordel firmly grasped Jin’s hand.
“The fact that you’re my first family and first friend will never change.”
“…”
Jin, who had been staring at her friend conveying her sincerity, suddenly stood up and sat beside Ordel.
Then she leaned over and rested deeply against her friend’s shoulder.
Like when they were young, as they often did even after becoming adults.
And Ordel, as always, tilted her head and gently rested her face against Jin’s head.
“Same here.”
Probably even when they grew old, the two would lean on each other like this and continue holding hands.
That was enough.
“When your child is born, after you, the child will become most precious to me too. My only niece or nephew.”
Jin very carefully and gently stroked her friend’s belly.
As if recognizing the person who would become their godmother, the child in the womb kicked the belly with little thumps.
Even that small movement was so lovable that Jin burst into laughter too.
“I want to meet you soon too, Guwon.”
“That nickname, I call it often too, but it feels really strange.”
Guwon.
That was the child’s nickname.
Actually, this world doesn’t have the custom of giving prenatal nicknames.
But Jin, who had become more accustomed to life on Earth than in this world, naturally asked about a nickname as soon as she heard the pregnancy news.
Rute, who learned about prenatal nicknames for the first time then, had said:
‘Guwon, Guwon would be good. You who saved me chose me, and you’re even carrying our child. So let’s make the nickname Guwon.’
Seeing him place his hand on Ordel’s still-flat belly and speak seriously without a trace of laughter, Jin was momentarily speechless.
She knew better than anyone why he chose such a nickname.
‘Who knows? Maybe in the next life, a savior will appear to rescue us wretches.’
Those words she had left for Rute before dying in their first life.
And as wished, Jin found a savior named Cha Siwon in the new world.
She came to this world and became Rute’s savior.
She even fell in love with him, married him, and they were having a child together, so naming the child Guwon was only natural.
【’Light of Indomitability and Faith’ expresses regret, saying ‘Taeyang’ would have been good as a nickname too.】
The previously quiet Sun God interjected.
The Sun God, who had consistently advocated for ‘Taeyang’ since the nickname discussion began, still occasionally showed such regret.
【’Traveler Guiding Souls’ says they still don’t understand why the nickname wasn’t ‘Bulsa.’】
“What a crazy god.”
Jin’s face contorted at the Eternal God’s message that followed.
That Eternal God suggesting the child’s nickname be ‘Bulsa.’
Was he sane?
【’Raging Sea’ complains about how long they have to listen to ‘Traveler Guiding Souls’ nonsense.】
The Sea God, the only one who didn’t participate in nickname suggestions, finally added a comment.
Jin felt relieved as the gods’ messages quieted down, as if they had gone off to fight.
“The child should know that mommy was a savior who rescued people. Think of it as prenatal education.”
Jin, who had thrown away Taeyang and Bulsa and enthusiastically voted for Guwon, sang “Guwon, Guwon” every time she met Ordel.
It was the thing she liked most among everything that bastard Rute had done.
“I agree with that too.”
Just then, the door burst open and the disgusting sight of Rute appeared.
