Takes place in episodes 11-12.

"Hm..." Alaric is putting another herb in a stone bowl, as he mixes them all together... He has been hard at work, doing so to... Well... Fix Rudeus. Well, he did inform that Fitz might be a woman... Alaric can't disclose it but... Rudeus is finally on the path to rediscovering Sylphy herself.

And upon another test...

"Seems we got a working one." Says others, as Alaric was over the moon! Finally, a working mix!

"But... If we let this out to the public... So please, do not attempt to sell this until we're finished finalizing the formula. Since we've verified that the facility that made these aphrodisiacs was destroyed alongside its recipes." Says the assistant, as Alaric nods, wearing a white coat.

"Ever since I graduated I was imminently taken in by the Magic Guild. I've been helping them progress in different cures and the such for different diseases and poisons. Millis being the far most medically developed kingdom, I was hoping maybe someday I too can learn something from them." Alaric thinks as that was from 8 to 3 in the afternoon. He should be tired but his large mana pool allows him to use a ton of it without much worry.

But then... It happened.

...

...

...

The marriage...

It all happened.

But ever since then, the worries of the overdue baby, things weren't looking so hot.

"... Everything will be alright, Kristene." Lilia sat on a chair next to her bed, as she was worried,

"I-I never expected... I... This isn't right..." She pats her stomach, the baby was supposed to be due!

"It'll be alright. A few babies were overdue... And you have Alaric to help keep the baby safe." She explained as Kristene sniffed,

"R-Really...?" She wondered as a ring made of brilliant gems was on her finger. Sparkling with light, it was beautiful...

"Yes... I'm sure Alaric is working hard to ensure the baby is safe and healthy... I read that some babies stay in the womb for a whole year... Granted, these pregnancies are due to the baby not developing quickly enough." Lilia explained as Kristene felt a little bit better.

"... Do you think they'll grow up normally?" She wondered as Lilia assured her,

"Everything will be fine." She explained, as inside the Magic Guild...

"Mr. Greyrat?" Says a researcher, as they knock on the wooden door.

"Come in," Alaric says, in a uniform unspecified over his linen shirt.

"We just got word that this "pill" thing you call affects certain men. Some show signs of overcirculation of the blood and some don't feel the effects at all. It seems we still have work to do if you want to continue this project." Says the researcher, a magician, as Alaric sighs,

"I have a question." Asked Alaric, as the researcher wondered,

"What is it?" They wondered, a higher ranking B Ranked in the guild,

"I've heard overdue pregnancies are thanks to the baby being underdeveloped... Is this common amongst women?" He wondered as the researcher could tell he was nervous.

"Being a father must be nerve-racking, especially after you took a good month's break. Don't worry, Alaric, as long as you're properly monitoring your wife, everything will be fine." They explained, as Alaric thanked them, before being handed some papers.
