“There’s nothing bad left in the world now, and even if there is, you’ll be fine because Del and I, and though he’s quite unreliable, the Sun God is protecting you.”

When I heard that Iliya had awakened divine power the moment he was born, I was so dumbfounded.

Ordel, who had fallen into a deep sleep right after giving birth and heard this news belatedly, was also incredulous and confronted the Sun God about it.

No matter what, was it right to just grant divine power immediately upon birth?

‘I didn’t awaken it because I wanted to either! It’s my first time having two people with divine power have a child, so I didn’t know! Really!’

The Sun God apparently sent a frantic message in response to Ordel’s momentum, as if she might rush over and grab him by the collar at any moment.

Ordel and Rute had also expected that their son would eventually awaken the Sun God’s divine power since they were special…

But who would have thought he’d manifest Holy Sage-level divine power right at birth?

After briefly glaring at the sun floating outside the window, Rute gently reasoned with his son.

“Of course, if you don’t want to be a Holy Sage, you don’t have to. Don’t worry about such things and do what you want to do. Mom and Dad will support you.”

Since he couldn’t hear whatever the Sun God was ranting about in the sky anyway, Rute spoke without reservation.

He had already finished discussing everything with Ordel, so there was nothing to hold back.

“Well, if you take after your mother, you’ll be just as stubborn, so you’ll do whatever you want anyway.”

Even Rute, who was famous for his terrible temper, had never once won against Ordel’s stubbornness.

Since Iliya was the spitting image of Ordel, he would ultimately do what he wanted.

“Yeah, that’s for the best.”

Rute smiled and kissed both cheeks of his beloved son.

He was so small and adorable that kissing him had become a habit.

“Mmph.”

“Sleepy? Let’s sleep.”

The gentle baby yawned widely and soon fell asleep leaning against Rute’s sturdy shoulder.

He held the baby and slowly walked around the room until he fell into a deep sleep, then carefully laid him on the bed.

“I love you, son.”

Rute whispered quietly so as not to wake the baby and went outside without making a sound.

The nanny waiting in front of the door bowed her head.

“The baby is asleep. I’ll come back when it’s time for his feeding.”

“Yes, understood.”

No matter how busy he was, Rute would come when it was time for his son to eat and personally feed him milk.

He was also eagerly learning from Linda how to change diapers and bathe the baby.

Of course, when the Grand Temple and trading guild work piled up too much, he would leave it to nanny Linda, but he tried to do it himself whenever possible.

And when his son fell asleep, he would take care of Ordel, who had suffered giving birth.

Thanks to his divine power giving him abundant stamina, he devoted all his time except when working to his family.

“Are you awake?”

When he entered the bedroom, his eyes met Ordel’s as she sat at the table eating.

As Rute strode over, Monica, who had been serving the meal, greeted him and immediately left the bedroom.

Because if she was even a little late, she would see Rute showering Ordel with kisses.

“Nothing uncomfortable or painful?”

As soon as the door closed, Rute kissed Ordel’s forehead and both cheeks, then checked on his wife’s condition first.

“I’m really fine now, I told you. I’ve completely recovered. I could go out and run around.”

Ordel, who had been heartily eating meat, swallowed and nodded with a smile.

However, Rute was firm.

“No. You said in your country, you have to be careful for at least a few months after giving birth. You said if you don’t take proper care of yourself then, you’ll suffer for life.”

Faced with his resolute expression that wouldn’t let a needle through, Ordel was troubled.

When Rute was pregnant, he had been curious about basic postpartum care and postpartum complications from Earth.

Thinking he was curious about the differences with this place, Ordel had told him what she knew in moderation.

She didn’t know then.

That Rute would remember all those words.

“Honey, there’s no divine power on Earth. So of course everyone has to be careful. But I’m different.”

Of course, Ordel’s body had hurt quite a bit right after giving birth too.

She suffered for about three days with pain as if all the joints in her body had been shattered.

But after about five days, her divine power and the blessings of the Sun God, no, the Three Sovereign Gods that were tantamount to overprotection, began to show their true power.

Thanks to this, when it had been ten days since giving birth, Ordel’s body had perfectly recovered to how it was before childbirth.

‘Long live divine power.’

To think recovery was this easy just with divine power.

Of course, she was special in being able to receive both divine power and the blessings of the Three Sovereign Gods.

Still, even just receiving divine power from Sun God priestesses would allow mothers to spend their postpartum period more comfortably.

‘I should send word to all temples. To provide free divine power treatment for two weeks to mothers who have given birth.’

Over the past few years, Sun God temples had become very numerous and were now beginning to spread not just throughout the Empire but across the entire continent.

This should be enough to save many mothers from danger.

“Still…”

However, seeing Rute still unable to let go of his worries, Ordel grasped his hand tightly.

“Honey, I want to live long and healthy with you and Iliya too. But do you think I would lie about my health?”

“That’s not it.”

“Right? You’ve been stuck right by my side for two weeks taking such good care of me, even bringing in a postpartum specialist to give me massages, so my body is perfect now. So stop worrying.”

Ordel pulled their interlocked hands and kissed the back of Rute’s hand.

Once again, Rute lost to Ordel.

“Alright. You must have been frustrated being in the room for two weeks, shall we take a walk after you finish eating? Iliya just fell asleep.”

“Yes, good.”

As the words she had been waiting for finally came, Ordel quickly finished her meal and reached out her hand to Rute.

Having become completely accustomed to Rute’s gentle escort over the past few years, taking his hand to stand up had become natural.

In the past, she would have found it disgusting, saying she could stand up by herself.

Rute was so devoted that before she knew it, she had become used to such behavior and now reached out her hand first.

“Hm?”

But this time was different from what she expected.

Rute took Ordel’s outstretched hand, made her wrap it around his neck, then immediately lifted her up.

Settled in her husband’s arms, Ordel blinked.

“I said I was fine, but walking on my own feet for a stroll still isn’t allowed?”

At those words, Rute was startled.

“Ah, right. I guess carrying you around has become a habit.”

Rute looked embarrassed and put Ordel back down.

From when her due date approached until after giving birth, whenever she tried to move even a little, Rute would rush over like lightning and carry her, moving her himself.

Like Ordel, this had become a habit for Rute too.

“Actually, it would be fine to keep carrying you around.”

Though he had reflexively put her down, Rute seemed regretful.

Well, for someone who openly showed his desire to carry, hold, and lift Ordel around whenever he had the chance, it was natural.

“No way. I need to rebuild the muscle I’ve lost.”

However, Ordel firmly refused.

From late pregnancy until now after giving birth, she couldn’t exercise or even move properly, so much of the muscle she had worked hard to build had wasted away.

The thought of building it up again from the beginning made her quite excited.

“Come on, just escort me.”

Rute took Ordel’s outstretched hand with a sullen expression.

“Oh my, Holy Maiden!”

Seeing Ordel walking outside after coming out of the bedroom for the first time in a while, the priestesses who had been working throughout the temple were surprised and gathered around.

“Is your body alright? Is it okay for you to be moving around already?”

“It was such a difficult birth, wouldn’t it be better to rest more?”

“Goodness, you’ve become half your size.”

The priestesses looked at Ordel with tearful expressions.
