Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

It took three weeks, but we were able to make our way through the four kingdoms and two more other nearby kingdoms.

This was all because of the efforts of the fourth prince.

If it wasn't for him giving me advice on how to avoid commitment with the nobles that tried to get closer to me, I really wouldn't have been able to avoid being swamped by them.

That would have caused us to stay even longer in these kingdoms.

But because the fourth prince was with me, I was able to keep each visit short and precise which allowed us to reach the dukedom earlier than predicted.

I had to admit that while I was against the fourth prince coming with me in the first place, he was showing just how useful he was and my opinion had completely changed about him following me.

When we arrived at the dukedom, the party that was there to greet us was…a bit lacking.

There were only a few people that were there and these people clearly weren't as impressive looking as the ones that had welcomed us before. They looked no different from civilians based on what they were wearing.

But it turned out that one shouldn't judge a book by its cover.

That was because these people were…the duke and his family.

The duke didn't bring any important people with him, he just brought his family along to welcome us.

It was the duke, his wife, his son, and his daughter, along with some of their guards.

When we landed, the first thing that happened was that the duke's son came forward and said, "Can I ride on the back of your wyvern?"

I was certainly caught off guard when I heard this as I never expected this to be the way that I was welcomed to this Nergiante Dukedom. However, it wasn't as if I was unhappy or offended by this.

Rather, there was a smile that appeared on my face when I saw the little boy come forward to ask this with a curious look on his face.

But I didn't get a chance to say anything as the duchess quickly came forward to grab her son before apologizing to me, "Your lordship Duke Zwein, I'm sorry about our son's lack of manners. He's just a young child, so I hope that you will not mind his rashness."

I just looked at the boy with a smile as I said, "Of course not, I'm happy to see that he's filled with curiosity." Then I said to the boy, "If there's time, I'll bring you for a ride on the wyverns. But that's only if you can get permission from your parents first."

The boy's eyes lit up when he heard this before he quickly gave a strong nod.

Seeing this, I couldn't help feeling a bit sorry for the duke and duchess for inciting him like this.

But I was happy to see that not everyone in this world was afraid of the wyverns.

Everywhere we went, we were looked at with fear when we arrived on the back of our wyverns. Even if we didn't mean any harm to them, there wasn't a single person that was able to overcome that fear and see us as we were.

I couldn't help admiring this little boy for the open way that he saw the world.

Not judging things because of prejudice, but because of what he wanted.

I knew that he would be one that would go far in the world.

But I was pulled back to my senses by the fourth prince coughing beside me.

When I heard this, I turned back to look at Duke Nergiante and said, "Your lordship, it is an honour to meet you."

Duke Nergiante said with a smile, "No, no, your lordship, it should be my honour to have you visit our small country like this."

Pleasantries were exchanged between our groups before we were invited to go back to the manor of Duke Nergiante.

Right now, we were standing outside the city that was the capital of this Nergiante Dukedom, so this really wasn't the place to talk about this.

As we were about to leave, I could see that the duke's son was looking at our wyverns with a longing look, so I called for a stop before we could leave.

Then I went over to the duchess who was still holding her son back.

She looked at me with a surprised and confused look, but I said, "Madame, how about we let the boy stroke a few of the wyverns before we go?"

The duchess had a slightly worried look in her eyes when she heard this.

But in the end, she couldn't do anything against the boy's enthusiasm.

At the same time, the duke gave her looks as if he was telling her to accept this.

His reasons were much more impure than the boy's, but I didn't say anything about it.

So in the end, the boy was allowed to go over and stroke a few of our wyverns on the head.

As he did this, his eyes were wide up and sparkling.

During this, Cecilia couldn't help coming over to ask, "Why did you do that?"

I didn't say anything at first as I looked at the boy with a smile on my face, but then I leaned in closer and said, "I was just wondering if our kid would be as cute as him once he or she grows up."

Cecilia was taken aback when she heard this before a blush quickly appeared on her face.

She just gave me a soft punch in the chest before walking back to her position.

I just looked at her walking off with a smile on my face, but there was a trace of bitterness that soon appeared in that smile.

That was because…even though we had started trying to have a child, we hadn't been blessed with luck so far…

After this trip, I should take some time off and focus on that with my wives.

It was just to make babies, not for anything else…

A smile crept onto my lips as I thought this.
