Volume 3: The Dazzling Fruit of Eternity
1. Hatching
“Little Reina’s belly is swollen again. It’s so cute~”
Calysia pressed her face against the clearly swollen belly of the young woman leaning against the headboard.
Her delicate limbs and beautiful face all indicated that she was a beautiful young woman, and the azure scales shimmered faintly in the darkness. She was also a beautiful dragon.
But the other party didn’t seem to want to pay much attention to her, continuing to caress her swollen belly, completely ignoring the head that was pressing against her.
“I can’t imagine what Agnes and Light will look like. After all, they’re twins, so they must be very beautiful.”
Saying that, Calysia nuzzled her head against Reina’s chest.
And the sleeping pregnant dragon finally opened her slightly resentful eyes, as if in silent protest:
“If Master keeps this up, I’m going to get angry, you dummy.”
But her eyes were still filled with a gentle severity.
She moved the dragon egg to a place where Calysia couldn’t see it.
This way, Calysia would surely regret not being able to see the dragon egg.
But after thinking about it, Calysia hadn’t done anything wrong. She just wanted to see how the baby was growing. So Reina had to pretend not to be angry again and used her two legs to block Calysia’s view of the dragon egg… But she discovered that Calysia seemed to just like looking at her legs.
“No, Master… aren’t you interested in our dragon egg? You haven’t asked about the dragon egg for half a year, even during hibernation…”
Speaking of which, Reina remembered that Liya and White Miry were on vacation.
They had taken a whole winter and spring off, and it was now July in the Eternal Night Era. There was no news of their return… And without even thinking, she could imagine what they were busy with.
During this time, Holsey and Delsey had taken over for Liya and White Miry… The efficiency of the two spirit cat girls was also quite high, but their “resurrection” in the God Slaying Society was an almost impossible thing, so it was a little ambiguous.
As the Dragon Queen, Reina had no rest.
She used her clone to run around constantly. If it weren’t for the end of the reincarnation, Reina would even think she was busier than before, and the most hateful thing was that she still had to incubate the egg! It wasn’t that incubating the egg was bad…
The current Reina was a pregnant dragon, with two eggs in her belly and in her arms at the same time. Instinctively, on the one hand, she didn’t want to be harmed or have her energy drained, and on the other hand, she didn’t want the dragon egg to be snatched away by bad people.
The existence of these two instincts made Reina a little confused, but she had no choice but to accept it.
“You take care of the baby, and I’ll incubate the egg, okay? Anyway, you don’t want to incubate the egg…” Reina said. Although the clone was indeed very convenient, after all, she had to get out of bed to comfort the baby, and she didn’t know how many eggs she would have to incubate next.
It was all for the dragon race’s birth rate!
To be ashamed to say.
Every time she felt a little wronged, Reina would complain to Calysia. Although she would regret it very much each time, the other’s comfort and acceptance became a good medicine for her to regulate her emotions. Therefore, she had survived so corruptly.
“Little Reina doesn’t have to worry. I will definitely be full of love for you both. I will definitely be responsible for you to the end and let you lay many, many dragon eggs~”
“It’s not for you…” Reina said, blushing.
“Leave the matter of taking care of the baby to me. Wait a minute, Reina, look!” Calysia was suddenly excited.
Reina followed her gaze and looked at the dragon egg. Although she didn’t see anything different at first, she thought that Calysia was just changing the subject.
But the next second, she also discovered that a barely perceptible crack had actually appeared on the surface of the dragon egg… Before she could even lay the second egg, the shell of the first egg had already begun to crack!
Reina’s first reaction was that the dragon egg was damaged, but why would a crack appear? It must be because she was too careless! Just like when she accidentally broke a toy as a child, for the dragon egg to have a crack in front of her master, and to have discovered it so late, was a sign of not paying enough attention to the child.
Her strong exterior was instantly melted, her eyes filled with tears, and for a moment, she was flustered. The dragon egg in her belly was frantically absorbing magic power, making her body a little weak. She could only hold the dragon egg and look at Calysia with an aggrieved expression.
“Mmph…”
Calysia’s eyes were playful, as if she were waiting for some strange reaction from Reina, and these reactions finally appeared as time passed. Reina blushed, like a small beast who hadn’t protected its important thing, and let out a cute cry for help to the stronger herself:
“Sob, sob… I’m sorry, Master, I’m sorry…”
“I don’t know… I might be… sob, sob… I say I like the dragon egg, but I’m sorry, I’m so dirty…”
This series of apologies directly confused Calysia as well.
“It’s not your fault, Reina. The dragon baby is hatching, ah…”
“Wh… what?”
“It’s not your problem. Dragon eggs are all like this. Reina is not wrong.”
Reina’s tears were still flowing, as if no matter what Calysia said, it was her own problem.
It was said that the first time a mother dragon saw her egg hatch, she would show her truest side.
Of course, she also knew this, but she still couldn’t help but blame herself.
When she came to her senses, she was a little angry again… because Calysia was also a mother, and she wasn’t so emotional, which made Reina look a little foolish. But no matter what, Reina had noticed a fact that was worth putting aside all “distractions.”
—The dragon baby is being born!
“Master, sob, sob…, Calysia, sob, sob…”
Her hard work had been rewarded, and their love had borne fruit. This commemorative moment was not a smooth one, but a winding and undulating one.
At least that’s what Reina thought.
She no longer held the dragon egg with her body, but got up and sat beside the dragon egg, touching the one in her belly and looking at the larger one before her.
“Sob, sob…”
“Reina, don’t cry. Such a beautiful dragon egg, the daughter will surely be very cute.”
“It’s all your fault, making me pregnant, making me like this, sob, sob…”
“Alright, alright, I’ll protect Reina. It’s not like I just casually knocked you up.”
“Sob, sob, sob…”
Reina was crying her eyes out.
It took her a few minutes to calm down, and she rested her head on Calysia’s shoulder, breathing in her scent.
“By the way, what should we name our child?”
She asked, her voice choked with sobs. In the depths of her heart, it seemed as if she had accepted something, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly.
“Didn’t we already discuss the name last time?”
“Mmph?” Reina tilted her head and quickly remembered what Calysia was talking about. Her tears had already stained Calysia’s clothes:
“Then I’ll listen to Master. Our first child will be named Celes.”
