Reincarnation into the Barrier Master

It was already the sun leaning west that Linos returned to the junction village.

"... hiccup"

He stops Illimo near the entrance to the village, whining unexpectedly. There were a handful of Crimeana soldiers' bodies lined up. And around it were the friends and families of the deceased soldiers, ready with the Agarta soldiers to solemnly mourn.

The remains of the soldiers all looked terrible. As one, no one was satisfied with the five bodies. Moreover, there was a tragic sight there, that everyone was smiling and desperate.

I found Linos, Lafayence is approaching. And the two of them line up their horses and make a report to each other.

"All Crimeana soldiers crusaded. Unless I was desperate, I struggled because I would get up and challenge the fight as many times as I could, but I stuck my heart in a poke and stopped my breath. I didn't want you to suffer too much. This kind of sweep is heartbreaking."

"Thank you, General. If you're Kassel, you've been tight. Perhaps you will not die, but you will continue to experience more painful pain than death"

"Right...... He was a hell of a guy, but on second thought, that one's just a kid. Thinking about it, a country called Crimeana is a terrible country."

"Yeah, we have to be careful what we do after this."

The old general nods silently, and he looks at me again.

"Lord Linos, leave the rest to me. You go to Matokal..."

"Let me do that. And then thank you."

That's why I moved to the medical lab in Agarta.

Once inside, he was put through to Mae's room. I always think this facility is always beautiful and clean. The staff and researchers who work for me greet me with ease. The Katai atmosphere, which is common in laboratories, is not even dusty, thanks to the efforts of the Mays. After waiting awhile with that in mind, May came.

"Thank you for waiting"

"May, how's the mato?

May nods small.

"I regained consciousness. There's nothing else in life."

"Right...... I'm relieved. But why were you bleeding so much? The line was perfectly tight. I knew they were slashing you somewhere in your body?

May looked at me in such a way that it seemed difficult to say anything, as she swam her eyes. Eventually, as she decided, she opens her mouth.

"It's hard to say..."

"What? What's up?

"In Mato's stomach, there was a baby"

"What?"

"I was pregnant"

"What... Wait a minute. The tomatoes were down, right? And..."

"Yes, presumably at that time, it was an abortion"

"Ri...... abortion?

"I was only in my early stages of pregnancy. Mato seemed to have a few symptoms of consciousness too..."

Often I get stunned. How long has it been? I squeeze out words desperately.

"What about the mato... how are you doing?

"I'm putting him to sleep with medication now. I don't know unless you look at the progress, but you probably don't need surgery. I just need to be at rest for a while, so I'd like to put you in the hospital here for a few days"

He said that Roni was attached to me as the attending physician. I told Roni to give him my best and took Illimo back to the Imperial Mansion.

I suppose I would have to tell Lafayence to do it, but I didn't really feel that way. Everything was up in the sky, stunned as I returned to the mansion. For now, I'm headed to my bedroom and I'm gonna be a big letter on the bed.

"What is it, Linos?

Rico came to the room to see how things were going. She slowly lowered her back to the bed and gently held my hand. I told her that Matokal was pregnant, about today's fight, and that she had an abortion. Rico listened to the story, but eventually when he finished listening to it, he stood up resolutely.

"Linos, Roni said that abortion in the first trimester is nobody's fault. It's nobody's fault. It's not Linos's fault, it's not Mato's fault, and... it's not Crimeana's or Vieilles' fault. Never... don't blame the tomatoes."

"Oh, I know"

"Hold on, hold on, Linos. Linos, you're the one who can save the tomatoes."

So Rico kissed me and left the room.

I didn't feel like going down to the dining room, and I thought Bo without eating a mesh. If I had known I had children, I would not have served the mato. No, my extraction was wrong. If Mato had stopped trying to take his lord, this would not have happened. In the first place, if that fucking kid hadn't done that... No, no, if only we had taken better measures for Crimeana......

I think a lot, but I don't get the answer. I wonder how long it's been. Rico came into the room again.

"At last."

Patapata, Eryl and Alilia come into the room.

"Come on, Linos, that's about all you think about, take a bath with Eryl and Alilia. I'll come in with you."

Rico forced me to take a bath with Rico, my two daughters. They are the grandmothers themselves in the bath. I have never stood still. I go after the two of them with bubbles everywhere. That made me feel a lot easier.

When I lift my daughters out of the bath, Sidi and Soleil wipe their bodies and make them change. I was finally able to take a slow dip in the bath. Rico tells me that Mae told everyone about Matokal when he came back, and they all seemed shocked. Talking about that for a while, Rico stops by me. And then he got on his knees and hugged my face.

"Linos, when the mato returns, don't give him a hug like this. You don't have to say anything. This is how I give you a hug."

"Rico......"

"It's the tomatoes that are hurting me the most. I don't think you'll be able to heal right away, but that's when Linos will stay with you. When you're hugged, the wound heals."

"Ok...... Rico, thank you..."

That night, Rico kept holding my hand with those little, soft hands, all night.

The next morning I saw Matocal with Rico. I thought she was in shock, and she looked surprisingly healthy.

"I didn't think I had a child. Hey, I thought your body was not feeling well, but it was unexpected. No, I'm fine now. Worried."

"Matto, you mustn't force me. You have to rest."

"I'm sorry, Master Rico...... By the way, how'd it go with the Crimeana guys? Their strength was unusual. Any damage to the Agarta army? Will Lafayence and everyone be safe?

I tell her not to worry about that.

"Matto, you need to get better soon. Eryl and Arilia also miss their tomatoes"

"Right. Then we must return to the mansion as soon as possible. Eryl and Arilia are good kids."

That being said, Matokal slowly pointed his gaze at the hospital room window.

"... were you holding it in this hand by the next spring"

"Mato?"

Matocal's shoulder was trembling in small pieces.

"I'm sure... you've got a heavenly punishment for me.... I have killed many people. I guess it's that punishment.... I've been too good before. Don't let me be happy.... but I wanted to give birth. Eryl or a child like Alilia... me too... Nevertheless...... I was prepared to accept any punishment... This punishment is... painful..."

Matocal's voice keeps crying. I unwittingly hold Matocal's hand. Rico holds that hand with me, too.

"Mato...... I'm sure the baby didn't think it was time to be born right now. I'm sure you'll be back at the best of times. So, Mato, heal your body quickly for then."

"Dear Rico...... Dear Linos......"

For the first time, Matocal showed tears in front of us. Me and Rico, we were just silent and all we could do was keep stroking her back.

"Right...... I didn't know that was happening..."

Lafayence, who heard the report from me, couldn't hide the shock.

"Not a rare story...... When the matocalypse I've been dealing with like my daughter does, don't hang out a bit. Actually, I was looking forward to it. Matocal and Lord Linos."

"General..."

"No, forget it. Old man, that's bullshit."

Lafayence smiles bitterly, waving his hands hilariously. And he became resolute and began reporting yesterday.

The burial of the Crimeana soldiers is said to be complete. Exactly, the village residents seemed upset, but there was no particular confusion. And as we talked about the upcoming Crimeana, suddenly one of the soldiers jumped into our place.

"Report! The villagers are shaking off our stop and gathering in the square one after another! Apparently Vieille is gathering villagers!

In a hurry me and the old general head to the village square. There was a figure of Vieille speaking in front of a large number of followers, in a voice that often passes.

… the content was shocking.
