Chapter 945: Katarina's Hatching and Otherworlder Beasts.
When the first crack of the egg occurred, Cecile's pupils shrunk as she looked downward to see the cracks around the egg nestled between her large wings. Even before realizing it, she called her soulmate instinctively. "Yasenia."
Almost without any delay, Yasenia appeared by her side, arriving from who knows where. "I am here, Sweetheart. Don't worry."
Cecile looked at the gorgeous dragoness and smiled happily, her tails swinging around. "Mhm. Good."
Yasenia smiled and looked down as well, saying. "The little one is finally going to come out."
Cecile hummed again. "She took her time." Then, Cecile asked. "Do you think that she will have any problems?"
The dragoness shook her head. "To be honest, of all the children, Cecile, ours is the one I expect to have the least amount of problems of them all if she or he has any. We are [Interlocked Souls], so we are basically fated with each other. Our children will be healthy and strong."
Cecile nodded a few times. "I see. I believe so, too."
Yasenia poked her nose and laughed. "Silly, I can sense that you are still nervous."
Cecile rolled her eyes. "Have you forgotten that the connection is two-way?"
The dragoness coughed, and Cecile laughed, lighting up her peerlessly beautiful facial features. The dragoness smiled softly, and Cecile asked. "By the way, I can sense that you are a bit disappointed... Well, it's not the feeling of disappointment, but something like you would have loved something that didn't happen to happen. What is it?"
Yasenia blinked and coughed. She didn't bother hiding anything from Cecile. "Well. It is the truth that I am delighted with all my little ones. However, there are no males between all the children. I would've loved a little boy or two to pamper as well." Yasenia muttered. "I mean, I am really happy that there have been children of my gender, Futanari. However, one or two boys would've been nice..."
Cecile laughed. "I see. Well, don't worry. There are quite a lot of chances in the future to have a little boy."
Yasenia nodded. "I also don't believe all my children will be girls. But, well, even if they were, I wouldn't mind. I would eventually have a few male grandsons to pamper either way."
Cecile smiled. "That's true, I guess."
The dragoness looked down at the egg and pondered for a few seconds. "She is taking her time."
Cecile blinked. "She really is. Is she lazy?"
Yasenia teased. "Perhaps she feels super comfortable between your wings, and she doesn't want to come out."
Cecile took it seriously and spoke to the egg. "Baby, if you are out of the egg, I can hug you directly. That will be much better. Moreover, you need to eat your egg, and while doing it from the inside is not bad, it is better if you first get out. That way, Mama and Mommy can take care of you."
Yasenia looked at Cecile and suddenly realized something. Cecile was a chatterbox through their soul connection. However, usually, she kept silent outside. Now, though, the little one was not going to be able to communicate mentally with Cecile, so, probably, Cecile would become a chatterbox with the child.
And, to confirm her doubts, Cecile started talking non-stop. "Also, while taking care of you, I can also breastfeed you. Did you know that drinking mama's milk will also strengthen you? It is really good for your health. Not to mention, if you later drink Yasenia's milk, that's like the most delicious thing in the world. You can't drink it from within the egg, right? So, how about coming out to greet Mama and Mommy? I can also give you kisses and nestle you to sleep like I've been doing in a more direct manner. Oh, right, you might want to cuddle with your Mommy as well. She has enormous breasts that are very comfy to sleep on. How about..."
The dragoness sat by the said as the monotonous tone of the phoenix constantly rang around. Yasenia smiled, amused. 'Thankfully, my Sweetheart's voice is pleasant even in her monotonous tone. If not, this would be quite a burden for the little one...'
Crack!
Yasenia paused and looked down. 'Hm? Is it working?' The dragoness's eyes danced with laughter. 'Are you coming out to shut up your mother, darling? Hahaha.'
Suddenly, a dragon snout pierced the egg, making Cecile lift her eyebrow. "Hm? Is she a dragon?"
Yasenia hummed. "I don't think so. She should have a phoenix-like body, no?"
As Katarina's snout continued poking at the shell and widening the hole, her body slowly came out, and in just 10 minutes, Katarina was out.
Cecile hummed. "The feeling of you drinking and Katarina drinking is so... different."
The dragoness was speechless for a few seconds. "What did you expect? For it to be similar?"
Cecile shook her head. "I knew they would be different since I wouldn't feel arousal toward Katarina. However, the difference is really big. Are you sure you are not using an obscure spell or something?"
Yasenia laughed. "Why do you ask?"
Cecile, blunt as always, commented. "Well, you make me clima..." Cecile paused, looked down, and then corrected her wording. "You make me feel in heaven just with that action. I can't believe they are similar actions with such different outcomes."
The dragoness smiled helplessly. "Silly. I love you so much."
Cecile blinked a few times and smiled. "I love you too, my love."
Yasenia laughed and then looked at Katarina. 'With you, every single little one has been born. I guess it is time to start looking outside the World. In case the Divines' signals and other otherworlders were sent out, detecting a threat far before it arrives is ideal.'
The feeling of everything coming to a close felt extremely satisfying. However, she didn't relax. Her adventure was just beginning. She had a vast universe to explore, with myriads of mysteries to uncover and endless challenges to overcome.
The dragoness paused and suddenly remembered. 'Wait, what happened to those beast otherworlders?' They had been so irrelevant during the global events that Yasenia had actually forgotten about them.
Thinking of them, she scratched her cheek and said. 'I guess I can go and give them a visit soon.'
And so she did. Taking part of her army, just in case, Yasenia went to visit the domain the otherworlder beasts occupied.
It was one of the largest mountain ranges in the Distancia Continent and a big part of its surrounding land. The place was quite large.
Tatyana asked. "So, what do you want to check?"
Estrella repeated. "What to check, Mommy!"
The other children parroted one after another, creating a lively atmosphere. Yasenia decided to bring everyone over because the Skeletal World Jumping Warship had protective formations that even she, going all out and using the [Celestial Pearl], couldn't easily breach.
This boat was a powerful Transcendence Level treasure, and it showed.
Yasenia laughed and answered. "Well, I want to check what they are doing. Are they friendly? Are they... I don't know. Planning something? Like, they've been completely isolated from the last few conflicts; they might be up to something, no?"
Tatyana snorted. "You are giving them too much credit. They are just beasts."
Yasenia deadpanned. "I am one as well, you know?"
Tatyana blinked. "Oh, sorry, habits are terrible, aren't they?"
The dragoness rolled her eyes and stopped the concealing formation. Evelyn muttered. "Being beautiful even while rolling your eyes should be counted as heaven-defying.'
Skye giggled. "Mommy is pretty!"
Evelyn wholeheartedly agreed with her daughter. "Your Mommy is indeed pretty. I really am sorry for your future husband or wife, Skye. With such a creature as a mother, won't your aesthetic sense get twisted beyond belief? You will look at normal, handsome men and beautiful women and think. 'Ugh! How are they so ugly!?' And mom will cry, thinking that if those are ugly, what am I? Do you understand, Skye?"
Skye looked at Evelyn with an empty gaze, clearly having understood nothing. Evelyn hummed. "It seems that your intelligence isn't quite there yet, eh? It doesn't matter, really. You are so pretty that a smile of yours is enough."
