|3rd POV|
The people of Shadowfall City are cheerful and jolly. The reason? They celebrate two good news. The first is the victory against the traitors, and the second is the pregnancy of their beloved Young Ladies.
The people of Shadowfall and Cunningham County, now Duchy, are happy for their beloved Young Lord.
The church even celebrates this pregnancy because it is a sign of good fortune for all. A pregnancy alongside victory is a symbol of everlasting prosperity. There is also the fact that they don’t want to offend Goddess Tiamat, who tells the world that he is her child.
The people from the church don’t know that Gwyndolin already summoned Tiamat because he promised to summon her for tea.
"Oh my~ Oh my~ Another children~"
Standing in front of Hilda and Silva is a two-meter-tall woman with a pair of breasts that make any man blush, and thighs that can crush a watermelon. On top of her head is a pair of curly horns that gleam under the light. This woman is Tiamat, the Primordial Mother and the Creator of the Sea of Life.
"Yes~ I will soon be a Grandmother!"
"Congratulations, my child~"
"Thank you, mother!"
Gwyn can only shake his head in amusement as he sees her mother become best friends with the Primordial Mother. He doesn’t know how it happened, but the minute he summons Tiamat, they become best friends.
Crafting more Tiamat’s Orbs takes time, but he manages to craft one and summon Tiamat. Lucky for him, she appears not through a massive crack in the sky but through a portal she created.
Tiamat said something about her being able to tell the intent behind his summoning, and when she felt him summoning her not because of battle, she only needed to create a portal while she was in humanoid form.
Gwyn shakes his head and looks at Jonathan, who stands next to him.
"Jonathan, how is the preparation?"
"They are doing great, my lord. Sadly, a few rabble from other territories do drunken brawls near the palace."
"Right. Is that why Jullian is not here?"
"Yes. He is taking them away and making sure they sober up by giving them his training regime." The source of thɪs content is novelfire(.)net
I wince a little at that news and hope they have a good time training while drunk.
"Right. That is good news, at least. Anyway, you can go and have fun, Jonathan. We will be fine here."
"Of course, my lord."
Jonathan bows a little and leaves the room to patrol. Gwyn hums a little and takes a sip of his coffee. Alexander, his father, also takes a sip of his coffee while smiling at the sight of his wife and Good Daughters celebrating.
The Gods truly bless him to have a son like Gwyndolin and Good Daughters like Hildegarde and Silvanna.
In the past, he wondered if others would always look down upon the southern territory. Never in his wildest dreams did the southern territory prosper. His son fixes the land and returns Nature’s Bounty to the Southern Territory.
However, the miracles do not stop there. He creates a defensive barrier against the monsters. He pushes back the monsters and lets them regain the lost territories that the monsters and the empire took away from them. He defends against the invasion and makes sure they do not have too many casualties.
He truly lives a blessed life.
"Father? What are you thinking about? This is a celebration, you know? You should smile more."
"Hmph! I am happy, you know? I am celebrating right now."
"Then what with that face?"
"It is nothing. I am just happy."
"Right... Anyway! Where’s Rachel? It is not like her to not attend a celebration."
"Oh, she will be here. You don’t need to worry about that.
As if summoned, the door to the room opens up, and Rachel arrives holding two cut dresses in her hands.
"Brother! Which dress do you think will fit me?!"
She looks at her brother with a giant smile, but stops when she sees Tiamat, who looks at her with a gentle smile.
"Eh? Who are you, pretty lady?"
"Oh my~ Oh my~ Pretty lady~ Oh my~ You are so cute!"
Before she can even blink, Tiamat appears next to her and picks her up. She rubs her cheek against Rachel’s and starts to pat her head.
"Eh? Eh? Eh?"
The poor girl looks around in confusion as Tiamat pampers her. Gwyn grins and decides to answer her question.
"I think the white and blue one is perfect for you, Rachel. What do you think, mother?"
His mother smiles and nods her head.
"Yes. The white and blue dress is perfect for you, dear. The pink one is cute, but the white and blue one is more appropriate for this celebration."
"I see! I will use that one then! However, can I ask you a question, mother?"
"Of course, dear. What is it?"
Rachel looks at Tiamat, who happily rubs her cheek on her head.
"Who is she?"
Cecilia smiles and says.
"She is your Great Grandmother, dear."
Cecilia decides to take Tiamat as her great mother. She is not the type of person who complicates things. She prefers a simple and direct way. If Tiamat is the Primordial Mother, then she is her great-grandmother. Simple and easy.
Rachel looks at Tiamat with widened eyes and says.
"Grand Grand?!"
"Kyaaa~ You are so cute!"
Tiamat raises her and hugs her tightly. After a few seconds, she looks at Rachel and says.
"I shall pamper you! Come on. Let’s put on your clothes and we shall go around the city!"
"Really?! Thank you, Grand Grand!"
If Tiamat’s smile could get any bigger, it would rip her mouth. Gwyn can only shake his head, but the smile on his face tells how happy and amused he is.
He looks at his parents and wives, and says.
"I will go with them. I don’t want anyone to anger her or something along those lines. Tiamat is gentle, but there is a reason why she is Incarnate of Destruction."
"Of course, dear!" Cecilia smiles at her son, "While you are away, I will ensure Hilda and Silva are ready for the ceremony."
Gwyn nods, kisses his wives, and follows Tiamat and Rachel.
==||==
A golden-haired woman looks around the city in awe and shock. Her eyes can see the thick and happy nature energy in the city. However, that is not the only thing her eyes can see. She can see spirits flying around, happily playing in the city.
Spirits are creatures that cannot survive without a lot of mana and natural energy. Because of this, they usually stay in a forest where they can grow and stay alive. The only time they leave the forest and their birthplace is when they make a contract with someone.
When they become a contracted spirit, they will get their mana from their contracted person and grow stronger from the constant supply of mana. In return, the spirit will be helping them by enchanting their elemental spells and making them ten times stronger.
Back in her home, spirits are a rare sight, and it is even more rare when there are a lot of them in a single place.
However, in this place? They are everywhere.
She walks through the street and looks around in wonder. She comes here on a mission, but after arriving in this place, she starts to forget about it and instead enjoys her day as if she were on vacation.
However, as she walks around the city, she stops as her eyes catch something. Something big and powerful.
She is looking at a tall woman with a pair of horns on her head. To the others, she must be a beastman, but to her eyes, she is a massive dragon. She starts to sweat from the sight, and it gets worse when the woman notices her and walks toward her with a smile on her face.
"Oh my~ What do we have here~"
Her legs start to shake, and darkness claims her.
