A God Killed Me By Accident, But I Reincarnated As The 4th Son Of The Marquis

Volume 9 Chapter 1: Morning With Espresso And Cuteness

 

"Mhmmghh," As Keith tried to take a breath, everything felt muffled. Something is on my face. He tried to move his head to shake it off. However, it seemed this mysterious creature latched on tight, refusing to let go!

"Cuu!" A cute cry came as it nibbled on his face! There was no attack damage there. Picking the creature up, 

"Ruby, why are you sleeping here? Shouldn't you be with your mother?" 

"Cuu!"

"Alright, alright. I'll wake up." Keith looked down to see Fira still sleeping.

Taking another glance down, he saw the little spirit sleeping on his stomach. He patted the spirit's head and slowly moved her onto his pillow. He turned to Aria, who flapped her wings, knowing what he wanted. Like so, Keith and one white creature walked out. 

First thing he needed for his morning was espresso. As he waited for the drink to drip, he diced a mango.

"Cuu!" The little fella quickly nibbled on it. Keith patted his head, "You're still growing, so eat more." 

"Cu," As the baby continued to eat, 

Hug.

Keith looked behind him to see it was a silver-haired beauty who looked up to him with a big smile, "Good morning."

"Morning to you as well," Keith nodded as he patted the princess's head. Some things have changed these past few days. One thing that changed was the increase of one person on the island. And it was none other than this girl right here. Also,

"Cuu!"

"Ruby, did you go and bother Daddy again?" The white creature flew over to Carolyn. 

"I'm not his father." A flat reply.

"You're his daddy. You found the egg, and I hatched it," Carolyn grinned. 

"Cuu!" Ruby sounded off as well.

"...That doesn't mean I'm his dad." Keith groaned. However, he couldn't deny the rest. Ruby came from the egg he obtained in the S-rank dungeon. However, the man thought it was just a regular stone since it didn't react to anything. Never did he expect it would hatch in Carolyn's hand. 

Everyone was quite startled by Ruby's sudden arrival. 

"Hmpf, Daddy is being a tsundere." Carolyn pouted as she turned to Ruby. 

"Cuu!" Ruby sounded. 

"Hah," Not going to say anything about that. Keith raised the kettle up, "Want some?" 

"I'll take milk tea instead," "Sure." Keith brewed black tea and swirled in some condensed milk. Sipping on it, "Delicious." 

"Mmhmm," Keith sipped on his espresso. 

"I feel like nothing has changed with me being here." It had been two days since her birthday party. Everyone was going about their day like any other.

"That's because you have been one of us from the start." Carolyn had come to his island many times before. It was like another Tuesday for the rest of them. 

"True," Carolyn chuckled. While they talked, 

"Po!" Mir summoned himself into the kitchen.

"Sup, Mir." Keith patted the snowball's head. It had been some time since he had seen him. 

"Where have you been?"

"Po! Po!" Mir jumped up and down. 

"I see, so you've been training." 

"Mir! It's been so long!" Carolyn quickly hugged the little snowball.

"Po!" Mir was content as he licked the girl's face, showing how excited he was to meet with her again. But as he did so, 

"Cuu!" Ruby sounded from the girl's shoulders. 

"Po?" The snowball was now staring at the cute creature. Carolyn grinned, "Mir, this here is Ruby. Please take care of him; he needs to learn many things."

"Po!" "Cuu!"

The two were placed on the table where Ruby tilted his head before he hugged the snowball.

"Po!" Mir sounded when the creature jumped on his body.

"...To adorable," Keith held his mouth while Carolyn nodded.

"I'm going to go to the garden now. Help me collect the ingredients." It was time to prepare breakfast. 

"Sure." Carolyn grinned as the group headed to the second island. When they did, 

"Cu!" "Po!" Mir and Ruby started to run around. It was much more open on the second island. Keith could only shake his head while Carolyn held his arm, 

"Don't you think this is so nice?"

"...Yeah?"

"It's like we're on our honeymoon." 

"...You're really going all out." 

"Mmhmm, I told you before that I'm going to make you fall in love with me." A declaration of war. This girl confessed her love only to know it would get rejected. 

Yet, that didn't stop her. She vowed to get this man to look at her. 

"..." While Keith was lost in thought on what to say, 

 

"Hah!"

  

"They're going at it." To the ends of one corner of the island, Herrick and Melor facing one another. 

"Trying to change the subject, huh?"

"Let's head to the farm." Keith quickly headed over with a grinning Carolyn following behind.

"Good morning, Eldi." When they arrived, they were first met with a giant red bird. 

 

"Cooo!"

 

"Can I get some eggs?"

 

"Coo," Eldi moved away from the nest, and there were already a couple of eggs. Keith nodded, "Nice. Thank you." 

Carolyn's eyes glimmered, "Even when I see it again, these are just giant eggs."

 

"I know." The size of these eggs was quite unbelievable.

 

"What are we making today?"

 

"Do you want sweet or-"  "Sweet!"

 

"Of course," This girl would always choose the sweet option. It was not a surprise.

 

"Then I will be making chocolate pancakes with honey and whipped cream," Keith already had an idea of what to do.

 

"Yipppe! Breakfast is going to be great, Mir! Ruby!" "Po!" "Cuu!" Carolyn started to twirl the two around with happiness. Keith shook his head as he brought the ingredients into the kitchen, "You go and play with the two. I'll deal with breakfast."

  

"Gotcha!" Carolyn didn't deny his words as she quickly went out to play with them.

 

"Diana, we are going to be making a lot today."

"Hehe, understood." Diana appeared before him. She had heard the entire conversation between the two. And she was quite excited by the breakfast as well.

Chocolate pancakes. 

 

Making the pancakes was simple enough. Mix flour and melted chocolate. Afterward, add the wet ingredients, such as milk and eggs. Then, pour that mixture into the pan; it was good to go. The only thing Keith and the great spirit had to do was rinse and repeat.

 

"Keith, is breakfast ready?" Sarah questioned.

 

"Yeah, We'll-"

 

"Can we have breakfast at the pergola?"

 

"Hmm?" "It's a sunny day, and I think everyone would be glad we do something like this.

 

"That's a great idea." "Mmhmm,"

 

"Let's-""Carolyn and Herrick have already called everyone outside."
