By all means, thank you!

　A mother holding her newborn baby and a father cuddling with her.
　They bowed more to me and then walked out of the tent, looking slightly dejected.

"It's unusual for me to slump back down from you.

　In its place, Eliza came in.
　Eliza came in again, this time as a sneak peek.

　Looking even more beautiful today, she walks into the tent and comes to my side.

"What's going on?
They asked me to name it.
"Name?　Oh, to a newborn baby.

　Nodding to me.
　A newborn baby in the arms of a young couple.

　It's a commonplace scene that I don't particularly care for, but it's also a distinctive sight that can't be mistaken for anything else.

"We want you to name your newborn, and today alone is the fifth pair.
The fact that you were cold feet means you said no. Why?
I think it's best for children whose parents are still alive and well to have their parents give them a name. A name is the first and most important gift you get from your parents, and it will be used until the end.

　Yes, that's why I take the name "Alexander" too.
　Even though I have memories of my previous life, in my senses, my father and mother are younger than me - younger people.
　Still, I cherish my name, a gift from my parents.

　I still remember my former name well, having used it for decades, but I haven't used it since my rebirth.

　My name is not the same as "Markosias" or "San".
　I don't think it's right for me to name your child after your parents.

So what about true names, baptismal names, and so on?
Hmm?
You God.

　Eliza stood and pointed at me with a snap.

...... Yeah, yeah. Technically, I'm a goddess.
"It's okay to be a god, as far as humans are concerned.
Yes.
"I actually do god-like things, I have goddesses and angels under my command.
"...... Yes,

　I feel a little bit embarrassed just by being able to enumerate all the things I've been doing.

Especially as of late. To these people of Avalon, you're like a god. More than a lord.
I see.
Then give him a name that God will give him, a name that only God can give him, apart from what his parents give him. Just give them a name that only God can give them.

　The solution offered by Eliza was pretty simple.
　Rather.

Maybe I've been thinking too complicated.
"It's Alec's habit.
"My habit?
You're a softie.

　Zubizh!
　And for the second time today, it was pointed at me.

　It was a rather refreshing assessment.

"Well,
"Or too service-oriented . Okay?　Alec, your essence is 'one step ahead'.
"One step ahead?
Whenever I have to solve something, Alec always goes one step further than the usual solution and has an even better solution. Is that because he has the power, or is that just his personality?
"Hm. ...... I see.

　I'll take a moment to think and reflect on what we've been up to.

　I can think of a lot of things that come to mind at .......

Well, it's amazing that you can do that all the time--or at least it's outrageous.

　Eliza gave a dumbfounded smile.

But it's basically a softie. Again, if you want to turn it on, turn it on, or don't turn it on. It's a good thing that you have your own ...... reasoning, and because it's contrary to that, you were thinking of something that would satisfy your parents if they would let you wear it. So it bothers me.
"Wow, you totally know my thoughts.
I'm not a fan of longevity.

　ELIZA.

Well, it's okay. Because of that mindset, you've been doing a lot of new things lately.
"Oh ......, I see that's where it comes from too.
"So I don't say it's bad, I think it's rather great. And I'm going to say it on top of that - you're a good-for-nothing!

　Three times.
　Three times, and when the explanation is carefully given.
　I'm starting to get excited.

Well, there was something I wanted to talk to Eliza about.

　I changed the subject a bit.

"What?


Like that baby I just saw, I've seen dozens of babies born since I've been here.
"Yes.
They all got a B grade or better.
"Yes.
Yeah, that's not very responsive.
That's right. I'm afraid it's going to happen.
"Huh?
The rank of the soul is also reflected in the place of birth. The higher the rank, the better place to be born.
Yes.

　That's why I'm a duke, and most emperors are A or S grade.

"Alexander Carlyle's restored utopia of Avalon. It couldn't have been a better environment. I have reason to believe that good souls will be born here as long as you live.
...... Eliza is amazing, the power of man - the power of a ruler alone controls the flow of the soul.
It's much more than Alec doing it, though.
It's fine, but the fact that this is where the good quality souls Elisa says are gathered, I think it means that there are other wrinkles.
"Consult it?
"Yes.

　I nodded.

"And Alec is worried about it, but I have no intention of stopping the development of this place.
"...... oh

　I could feel my face flushing and blushing just a little bit.

　I was supposed to change the subject, and now we're back to the same story.

　Yes, I'm not going to stop there either.
　I'm going to manage the wrinkles as well, assuming that I don't stop and continue to develop Avalon.

　That's exactly what Eliza pointed out.

It's also a trap for me.
"Huh?
By making this kind of distortion, Alec will eventually save the region, a conglomeration of low-ranking souls, and its people, who will go down in history. And they will be remembered in history.
Wow, Eliza. You think that far ahead.

　Honestly, my hat's off to you.
　The way you tried to squeeze all my strength out of me--a godsend.

"Don't make me say it again,

　Eliza smiles at you.

"What's really great about it is that it's done, Alec. I just want Alec to go down in history.

　I was still amazed, I thought.
