Chapter 188 Promise
"What are you talking about, Veli?" Surprised by her son's request, Daphnia looked at him with her eyes wide open.
Even Lyra, Naomi, Sariya, Elda and Juno couldn't help but get up from their seats in surprise, but they soon calmed down as it wasn't something impossible.
All of the knew someday they are going to do something like that, but none of the expected Velian to bring up this topic so soon.
"I'm okay with that, but Elda is too young-" Sariya thought she was already pregnant since Velian came inside her but, she didn't know Veliam used his skill to lower the effect of his sperm.
He just used fire magic and precisely killed the sperm without harming any of its organs of Sariya.
Some might consider it cruel, especially in this medieval world where medical knowledge is almost on existent, but Velian knew sperm is not something that is considered as life.
Only when it is combined with an ovum and forms an embryo, it can be called a life.
"Woahhh~ Wait! Wait!" Velian quickly tried to clear the misunderstanding.
"It is true, I want to have children with every one of you, but we still have time, we should first stabilise the kingdom before thinking about something like that," Hearing Velian's words, Sariya and Daphnia both nodded their heads approving it.
They knew losing valuable skills like theirs right now would affect the kingdom, so they clearly understood what Velian meant.
"Then what do you mean?"
Everyone sharpened their ears to listen to Velian's reason and suddenly, he pulled something out of thin air like he was doing some kind of a miracle.
But Daphnia and Lyra, who knew about this weren't that surprised including Naomi.
"...."
Others had their mouth and eyes wide open letting insects fly into them without any hesitation.
"This is a dragon egg, Mother and Lyra knew about this but I didn't want to reveal it for now,"
Showing a big egg, which looked like something out of a mythical fantasy story, Veloan carefully touched it and looked at it with a sad look.
"One day, I met this kid's mother, she was on the verge but still she could have killed me, but she let me go and asked me to take care of this," He started telling his story and how entered the cave after deceiving Daphnia, and he came to the most important part.
"Do you understand everything until now?" He questioned all the girls, since he didn't want to leave anyone out of this circle.
"This is almost like a fairy tale, Veli," Elda said with an excited look like she was a little kid, who heard a bedtime story for the first time.
"I never knew dragons were real until you showed this to me, this is enough for every kingdom to attack us if they knew we have a dragon egg," Sariya thought for a minute.
"Not only kingdoms, but every race would also try to steal this, this isn't something which can be measured in value," She corrected her mistake after realising how she was underestimating the value of this.
"And what do you want us to do master?" Naomi questioned, she had a wild guess after remembering Velian's first word, but she couldn't even imagine something like that happening in real life.
"As I told you, I want each and every one of you to be this kid's mother," Carefully touching the egg, Velian muttered confusing everyone in the room except Daphnia.
"I want to hatch this egg because that's the only way I can save this kid, but I can't do it alone," Looking at Daphnia, he muttered.
"Usually dragons have the mana quality of both male and female, so they can easily hatch the egg without any problem,"
"But I only have the mana quality of male inside me, so I need your help and power," Everyone got a vague idea about what Velian was talking about.
"Veli, tell them the most important part," Daphnia quickly interfered with him because she knew any ordinary woman can't be useful to him right now.
"That woman should be at least above SS rank, otherwise your mana won't work with mine and hatch this egg," Sariya had enough shocking information at the same time, she felt like she was dreaming for some time.
"No way, such people exist, maybe stainless from the hero party is like that, but she's already dead,"
"..."
"Mother, you didn't tell her?" Belgian looked at Daphnia. She avoided his eye contact with quick motion and muttered in a tiny voice.
"I guess, I forgot,"
*Sigh
"Sariya, listen to us calmly," Velian went in her direction and looked at everyone in the room.
"My mother is SSS ranked and both of my sisters are SS ranked, Naomi is S rank, but she will reach there in time, Juno and you two are the people remaining," This was the last piece of information, she wanted to know before her brain enters into the protective mood.
She felt like the reality in front of her is getting warped because of how absurd these words were.
"Haha~ impossible, no way, so all of you were legendary mages and warriors?"
"No, they were normal A-ranked or B ranked, I used my bloodline skill and helped them to rise to that rank and now you're going to do the same if you want. I won't force you," Giving her support, Velian mumbled.
"Do you need all of us? You can just ask Daphnia to help you, she's the most powerful one among us," Juno took all this information rather calmly than the other two, but even she had her mind jumbled by how absurd they were.
"Well, that's true but-" Velian paused for a moment and looked at everyone.
"I want all of you to be there with me for this special moment, didn't I promise you, in the beginning, no matter what I do, I won't abandon you," Giving smile, Velian easily seduced everyone in the room with his words as everyone had their faces blushed because of how considerate his words were.
"Hehe~ I feel like attacking you, Veli," Daphnia said while wrapping her hands around, Velian's neck and looking at all the girls.
"You heard him, if you don't want to be a part of this, we won't force you, choose here and now,"
Everyone looked at each other hoping to see them answering, but suddenly Naomi and Lyra raised their hands.
