Thus spending time at the inn.

　In the middle of the night, Anastasia's attack is expected, but Lunamaria avoids it by attaching a rope.
　Just to be sure, the door is securely locked.

　During the night, I go through what happened today before falling asleep.
　Anastasia, the ancient elven wizard. Commander of the Kingsguard and hero of the tree.
　Regardless of her origins and character, the information she brought me was surprising.


"Master Will, you are royalty of the land. You are a prince.


　I never thought the day would come when such a thing would be declared.
　I once asked Ronin, the God of Swords, once.

"Hey, Father Ronin, where was I born?　What are real mothers and fathers doing?

　I was told from the beginning of my life that I wasn't related to them. (Well, there's no hiding it.)

　At the time, Dad Ronin said, "Look, Will, you came from a tree.

"Look, Will, you came out of a tree, so you didn't have a birth mother. So you didn't have a birth mother.

　Of course, I knew at once that it was a joke. Ronin did not seem to want to mention this.
　Later, when I asked Milia, the god of healing, the same question, she said, "You gave birth to me.

You were born of my stomach ache. Or the stork brought it in and then I ate a cabbage and I got pregnant".

　This too is obviously a lie.

　I can't help but ask Vandal, but he starts talking about how to make a child and what life is all about.

　For three days and three nights he talks about life. Then, when it started to cover the birth of the universe, I cut it off and asked the all-powerful god in the branch of the big tree.

Do I have a real father and mother, Reus?

　Reus, in the form of a raven, said bluntly.

"Somewhere in this world. Somewhere in this world.

Why did they leave me?

I don't know. Maybe there were compelling circumstances.

"Hmm.

"Will you want to meet your real father and mother?

　I shook my head immediately at the answer.

"-No, I'm just curious. And I already have my mom and dad. Four. I don't want any more.

I'm glad to hear that. But maybe in the future you'll meet your real parents. Then feel free to meet them. I'm sure they look just like their real parents.

"Yeah. I'll just show you my face. But my fathers are Reus, Ronin and Vandal, and my mother is Millia.

"Tell them that, they'll be happy with tears in their eyes.

Instead, they're going to hug you for three days and three nights.

Hmmm, yeah. Well, the conversation is over. Ronin is looking for you.
Oh, yeah. Today is sword flash day.

　And so I went to Ronin's side at that time.
　My consciousness returned to the inn.

My real parents.

　As a matter of fact, Anastasia's statement was shocking, but not upsetting.
　I already have four parents. I can't imagine two more on top of that.
　And even if you say that one of them is the king of this country: .......

"It's not like I'm going to be a prince and inherit the throne.

　I had never been in a court, but I was familiar with it from novels.
　It is a glamorous but scheming place.
　Every day, the beautiful princesses of the court jostle for power in fear of being poisoned.
　That's all I can imagine.
　From what the vandal has told me, that image is not off the mark.
　Wouldn't a lifetime in such a place be no different than living in prison?
　but I was still going to go to King's Landing.
　I wondered what kind of people my birth parents were.
　And I wanted to say thank you to them.

"Thank you for giving birth to me.

　and.

"Thank you for teaching me about this world.
　and.

"Thank you for letting me meet my mom and dad at Table Mountain.
　And .

　That was my untrue intentions.
