Reborn: I'm A Dragon Girl With An OP System-Chapter 358 Graduation Part 3
Chapter 358 Graduation Part 3
I now know that doing everything myself may be easier, but if I allow the people under me to think that I will finish everything for them, they will become lazy, and when a really powerful enemy emerges, we will be stuck in a tight spot. This I did not wish for. So I will no longer stand in the front but in the back unless the enemy is too powerful for such a thing.
“Faith!” Adel and the girls all jumped me at the same time, hugging me. Diablo placed his big hand on my head. “We will have a party tonight~!” Adel continued.
“Then let’s have a party. We will invite all our friends to the estate.” I actually hoped that Gesel and Fred were in town since I had not seen them in years.
“Don’t worry. We already knew you would agree, so we sent out word, and people will be heading to the estate tonight. So let’s go back and get ready!” Sophie replied as she wagged her tail back and forth. I couldn’t wait. To be able to have a calm relaxing time together would be a very good change of pace.𝗳𝗿𝐞ℯ𝙬𝗲𝗯n𝗼νel.𝒄𝑜𝘮
When I got home, I was surprised to see so many people were already here. Grace and Annie were taking control of everything, and many grills were already lit up, cooking meat and other kinds of food. There were many colorful tents and streams all over the lawn, making it quite the colorful scene.
When I walked in, everyone who saw me began clapping and congratulating me on my graduation. But I only got two steps into the party when I felt danger. I quickly drew my sword and swung it behind me to have the ground under me, sink in. “Tch! You have gotten so much better!”
Hearing the familiar voice, I turned to see Gesel, in all her muscular glory, standing there with a big grin on her face. “Gesel!” I yelled out as I jumped on her and hugged her.
“Haha! Faith, long time no see!” Gesel smiled as she hugged me back. Fred stood at the side as quiet as always.
“So, how have you been?” I asked as she went to sit down at one of the tables.
“Fred and I have been working hard at leveling up in the dungeons. We are also doing our best to get skill stones. I have gained quite a few abilities that have allowed me to take on thousands of monsters at once.” Gesel began telling me about her adventures in the dungeons and how she had almost died quite a few times. And that was when she hit me with a bombshell.
“Now, though, I need to take a break from adventuring,” Gesel said with rosy cheeks. “I will be having a little Gesel soon.”
“What!? Who’s the father!?” I yelled out even though I already knew, causing Gesel to laugh. Poor Fred stood there speechless, unsure of how to react to my outburst. “I am just joking. Fred, Gesel, congratulations.”
“Faith, when the child is born, I was hoping you could become he or she’s godmother. Is this okay?” Gesel asked as she rubbed her belly. Now that I was looking, I did notice she was starting to put on some weight.
But how could I say no to my long time friend? “Of course! No matter what happens in the future, they can count on me if they need me.”
“Knowing you will be willing to protect my baby in case anything happens to me puts me at ease,” Gesel said as her normally stern eyes grew soft as she rubbed her belly. It made me wonder how I would feel in the future when I have a child of my own.
Just thinking of having a child of my own was still a scary thought. I mean, would I be a good mother? Would I be able to raise a child properly? Would they even like me? These kinds of questions were things I had no answers for at this time, nor did I wish to think about them too hard but knowing one of my good friends was with child made my own maternal instincts come out.
The graduation party went on well into the night. The whole estate was packed with people I had met throughout my life. The dwarves supplied alcohol which really got the party fired up as some people had mini bouts in the yard, causing people to cheer. There were even a few people who were dancing like fools on top of tables. It reminded me of the movies I have watched and the manga and novels I have read that depicted these kinds of scenes in them.
It was a very fun time. Even after the party, when people were passed out on the lawn, I could only smile as I sat with my fiancees and fiance under a tree, looking up at the stars. If only peaceful days like this could last forever. But I knew this would not be the case. I reached up with my hand wanting to grab those stars, but I guess, for now, this was far from my reach. Maybe one day in the future, we will achieve space flight and see the worlds beyond.
But I have a feeling interdimensional travel would come first. Although I think the dungeons are already considered a dimension of their own. But the thought of maybe one day taking a peek back at Earth would not be so bad. To see how the planet itself is doing. I no longer hold any more attachment to that world, but it would still be nice.
I had the girls using me as a pillow, so I leaned against Diablo to make him my pillow as I slowly closed my eyes. It was a busy day but a very eventful one. I do hope I will be able to live up to the expectations of everyone around me and become a queen… No Empress of the Gravos Empire. This would be my first order. Changing the name of the kingdom to Gravos Empire as it has already grown too large to be considered a kingdom any longer.
