While Lux, Aina, and the cute troublemakers were having fun on Earth, some unexpected guests arrived on the Floating Island of Heaven's Gate.
The original floating island had been completely destroyed by Daniel. However, since the Floating Island and the Giant Earth Turtle were merged into becoming a single entity, the Half-Elf was able to resurrect it.
For the time being, members of Heaven's Gate used the Royal Palace of the Fynn Kingdom as their temporary lodgings while their Guild Headquarters were being rebuilt.
Everyone's gaze landed on the old man wearing an eye patch and then on the extremely beautiful woman behind him.
Aurora, who saw them, smiled sweetly and immediately approached Queen Rhiannon, who was holding her little sister, Dia, in her arms.
Iris, Cai, Valerie, Aurelia, Ali, and Ari immediately figured out who the woman was and the baby that she was holding.
The ladies didn't move from their spot and only looked at the Succubus Queen warily, which amused Queen Rhiannon.
Aurora knew what her sisters were thinking, so she decided to take the initiative to introduce her mother to them. 10:38
Aurora knew what her sisters were thinking, so she decided to take the initiative to introduce her mother to them. "This is Queen Rhiannon. As you already know, she is the Ruler of the 13th Layer of the Abyss," Aurora replied. "And this cute baby in my arms is none other than Dia, Lux's baby. Isn't she adorable?"
Aurora, who was already holding Dia in her arms, walked toward her sisters and allowed them to have a better look at Lux's first child.
Iris fell in love with the baby the moment she saw how chubby Dia's cheeks were.
She lightly poked the baby's chubby cheeks, making her feel something warm spreading inside her chest. Dia, who had been poked, smiled immediately, making her whole face brighten up. She then made gurgling sounds as if trying to communicate with Iris. This gesture of hers was too cute, making everyone's heart melt.
"I can't take it," Cai said as she gently touched Dia's small hand with her finger. "Can we keep her?"
"No," Queen Rhiannon replied with a smile. "But you can play with her anytime you want."
As if confirming her mother's words, Dia's hand curled up to hold Cai's finger, making the High Priestess press her hand over her heart due to how moved she was. "Dia says we can keep her." Ari was quick to comment because she could sense Lux's bloodline flowing inside Dia's body. "Any objections?"
They were too tiny and insignificant for someone like it to actually care, so despite someone leeching off him, he couldn't care enough to wake up from his slumber and continued to dream.
An hour later, the atmosphere between the ladies became lively.
Everyone was smitten with Dia, so they no longer thought of the Succubus Queen as their enemy.
Since she was still a baby, Dia got tired easily, and soon, she was peacefully sleeping in Valerie's arms.
'So this is what it feels like to have a baby,' Valerie thought as she lovingly and carefully held the child in her arms as if holding a priceless treasure.
Seeing this, Aurelia couldn't help but touch her abdomen. A few months from now, she would also give birth to Lux's child. She was certain that she would also be very happy once she saw and held her own child for the first time.
"That's it," Cai said softly. "When Lux returns, I'll ask him to get me pregnant as well."
"Me, too." Iris nodded. In the past, she thought that she would be the one to give birth to Lux's child first. When she discovered that Valerie and Aurelia were already pregnant, she uncontrollably felt sad, feeling like something important had been taken from her.
Even so, this feeling didn't last for long and was replaced with the happiness of knowing that their family was getting bigger.
She knew that a year or two from now, she, too, would be holding her baby in her arms, making her feel complete.
For the time being, she decided to treat Lux's babies as her own.
The funny thing was that she wasn't the only one thinking along those lines.
Cai, Ali, Ari, and Aurora were all thinking the same.
They also wished to hold their own babies in their arms as soon as possible.
But for the time being, they were content with taking turns kissing and holding Dia and looking forward to her growth.
Several years in the future, Dia would step out into the multiverse to find her own destined one—a man who would have to overcome the hurdle named Lux before he could hold hands with the young lady, whom he was going to share forever with.
