Chapter 490: Arche

"Nope." Lyca shook his head. "I don't understand why you would want to name him Kale. Reminds me of the vegetable."

"It's the name of the moon. One of the planets. I think it suits him."

"That is a disfigured moon," Lyca argued, she stared at him, unimpressed. "I don't want to name my child… Kale."

"Then are you going to name him Ares? Like the God of War? Isn't he like an evil god or something?"

"Number one. Ares had problems with his morals. He has some good qualities, too. Like his abs. Second. He is the spirit of battle." Lyca said.

Shen Qui frowned. "If you want Spirit of battle, then… let us use Mars. Mars is also the God of war and also considered a guardian. The agricultural guardian."

"Mars Shen? Doesn't sound too good, no? I'll stick with Ares."

"Ares Shen doesn't sound too good too."

"But it's better than Mars." She shrugged and ate some dried mangoes that Shen Qui was holding in a bowl. "Ares Shen. Ares sounds sexy, and it is short."

"Are you too lazy to call your son's full name?" he asked.

"Kind of. If my son is named Felemon, I would call him Fel. Ares is short. I can't call him Ar or Es. So… I would always call him Ares."

"But Mars is short too."

"I'm not naming my son after a planet!"

Shen Qui shook his head. "Let's talk about this later."

"I'm about to give birth. We needed to decide his name now or… I will use Ares."

"You can't use Ares!"

"But I'm not using Mars!"

"Why are you naming your son after gods of wars?" he asked, confused.

"Then give me a name that's not God of War?"

Shen Qui shook his head and let out a sigh. "How about Arche?"

"Where did you hear that name?" In her previous world, Arche is a term used to call an origin or the beginning. But in this world, it is the name of a moon of some ringed planet.

He shrugged. "I thought it was cool. I thought I heard it from somewhere."

"Hmmm. Then let us name him Arche."

"Really?"

"Really?" Lyca smiled. In her previous world, people believe in many gods. It was kinda like the Greek and Roman gods. But there were more gods in her previous world. There were gods of poisons, gods of archers and knights, and many others. However, there was this one legend. About a God known as Arche.

They say he was the first God, but he wasn't the most powerful one. They say that Arche's greatest ability is his brain. He was brilliant and could travel in different worlds.

Obviously, not many people believed this story. In fact, she never heard of anyone worshiping this god.

Lyca smiled as Shen Qui held her hand. "I think that would be a perfect name for our Son." Arche the Origin and it could also be called a moon. It's perfect. Lyca traveled into this world because of a moon necklace and now she was naming her son Arche. "Aw!" her face changed as she held her stomach.

"What's wrong? Is it time? Are you going to — Oh my god! I should get the car!"

"Stupid!" Lyca elbowed him. "He kicked." She pointed at her stomach.

"He kicked you?"

"Stop glaring at my stomach. He was could hear you." She laughed. "He must be excited about his name." She smiled when Arche moved. This time, she could feel him move his body. It was as if he was turning his body. It felt weirdly satisfying and frightening at the same time.

"Why is he moving so much?"

"I don't know?"

"You're about thirty-nine weeks, right? You can give birth anytime, right?"

"Can you stop panicking?" Lyca reprimanded. "You took classes and even started acting like a doctor. How could you show signs of panic? So embarrassing."

"I — " He was still glaring at her stomach. How childish. "I was just scared."

"Scared of what?"

"Why was he moving so much already?" he asked.

"He likes to move. Just like me."

"…" Shen Qui deadpanned.

"Aw! There you go… he is moving so much." Lyca slowly stroked her stomach. "He must be excited or he could feel you glaring at my stomach like you are about to remove him from my belly." She rolled her eyes inwardly. "He is scared of you."

"How could he be scared of me? I am so good-looking and kind." He snorted. "He should be thankful he has a father like me."

That made her laugh. Soon, her low chuckle turned into a giggle. "He will be prettier than you."

"That… That is something that I cannot argue with."

Lyca let out another burst of laughter. This man… is really funny. "By the way, why are you here? You are supposed to entertain our guests. The Ye Family with my parents should have arrived, right?" Until now, Lyca still addresses them as someone from the Ye Family. It wasn't because she wasn't very welcoming or that she doesn't like them.

In fact, Lyca actually thought that the Ye Family are very reasonable people. However, she still has this feeling that the Ye Family is looking at her as if she was… some sort of goddess. To be honest, Lyca expected the Ye Family to demand that her child have the Ye Family name. She was prepared to cut contact if they said something like that.

However, not one of them said that they wanted her son to become a Ye. All they did was celebrated with her parents and sent her expensive gifts for her child. They were very supportive and actually made her feel like a part of the family.

"Hey, pregnant lady!"

The peaceful atmosphere inside the entertainment room was interrupted when Tang Ruyi walked in with a huge smile and a bag of popcorn in her hand. Without wasting any time, Tang Ruyi looked at Shen Qui. "She can eat popcorn, right?"

"Ummm… Excuse me? I am the pregnant lady here. Not Shen Qui. Why are you asking him like he was the pregnant one?" Lyca immediately complained.

....

I have been away for so long. Real life is not very good for me right now. I got sick then my sister in the police got Covid. T.T It's pretty sad. Sigh.
