Darius Supreme

Fergie snapped out of her thoughts when she noticed that an increase in aura from both the recovered women. Berry and Kirstien's aura swelled and exploded just like hers did, reaching the Grandmaster stage right away!

Fergie was left speechless! She had risked her life countless times, only reaching enlightenment after Gunner had agreed to spar with her on her level, yet all it had taken for the other Masters to breakthrough had been one drop of the purple liquid?!

What's more, how could Gunner have been drinking that stuff casually?! What the heck!

Suddenly, Fergie's eyes narrowed. Wait, could it be that… Gunner was a God? And that drink was Godly Dew or Divine Ambrosia?

That would explain everything!

The Branded Servant, not realizing that the silly Fergie had mentally elevated him to the status of godhood, was now bored as he waved his hands. "Get it done."

He then left the city area on a stroll, looking unbothered. Deep down though, he was steadily searching for his ride which he might've blown up… accidentally!

Kirstien opened her eyes and ripped her armor off her body with raw strength, displaying her naked body to the world. She was surprisingly rather beautiful, with deep caramel skin that gleamed in the sunlight due to her sweat and a full body that did not lose out to Fergie, and was even superior in some ways.

One thing was for sure, the women in Fraterina were of high quality. Descended from Valkyries, it was the least one could expect. How many empires had wanted to annex this place and capture these high-grade women for themselves but had failed?

Now, they had crumbled to a contingent of around 17,000 troops and one man. Just one man, though he was quite the man…

Fergie, Kirstien, and Berry couldn't help but blush when they noticed that all three had the same thought run through their minds. Kirstien sighed as she touched her skin and regrown hair, shaking her head.

"Henceforth, I solemnly swear to never wear metal armor again."

The experience had traumatized her, and she would fight wearing armor made of non-reactive materials. Perhaps Dragonbone or the like, she wasn't sure yet, only that it definitely wouldn't be metal.

Fergie nodded in understanding, while Berry couldn't help but comment. "You two are still buck naked, you know?"

Fergie and Kirstien shared a look and shrugged. "It's actually kinda liberating. Besides, is there anyone to see us like this?"

Berry looked around at the devastated city and sighed. "You're right."

She then ripped off her torn-up robes and joined the duo in their nakedness. The three shared a look and began laughing. They laughed so hard and for so long that they were soon breathless, unable to even stand.

When Gunner returned and saw three naked women cackling like crazy, even the callous half-giant got goosebumps and quickly exited the scene.

The devastated Fraterina was revitalized on this day by three naked women amidst a pile of rubble, the three new Grandmasters of the kingdom. After they were given HoloBraces and their next orders, Gunner directly left Fraterina and marched back with the troops.

The casualty rate was utterly perfect. Among the 17,000-ish troops, only about 20 had perished, though not for long. Each troop carrier had stored Lunar Dew for situations like this.

As for the 500,000 conscripts, nobody really cared about them. Everyone had known that they had been sent out to be useful one last time before they died.

The only ones who might shed a tear and remember them were their aggrieved family and friends, who hated Gunner to the core, but were powerless in front of him.

Gunner managed to return to Safemoon 3 days before Celia gave birth. On the due day, the fellow was like a restless beast, pacing up and down while Darius had taken a break to witness the event.

He was amused by Gunner's antics, reminding him of himself shortly before Solena's birth, yet he helped calm the large lad down and guide him through it. After all, Darius had done this three times and by the time Martin came around, he was a seasoned veteran.

Soon, the birth was complete and a thunderous baby's cry came from the room. Gunner rushed in with Darius following behind. Within the chamber were Xela, Luna, and some midwives who were here to help Celia.

Celia lay on the bed, tired after having given birth to a quarter-giant with Royal blood. The size of the crying baby alone was about 27 inches and its weight was easily above 5 kg. If it wasn't for the fact that Celia had a monstrous Constitution, this would not have ended as pleasantly.

Gunner, as if mesmerized, looked at Celia and the small baby in her arms that was already in possession of spiky green hair from birth, a notable difference from human babies.

The little lad was like a carbon copy of Gunner, only that his lighter skin tone and his hair color came from his mother. However, his face and body were similar to Gunner in every way, only that his features were a bit softer thanks to his beautiful mother.

Celia giggled when she saw the dumbfounded Gunner and called him over. The now father walked over as if in a trance and received the baby from his beloved woman and held it in his arms.

Without planning to, Gunner activated his Earth's Guardian as a lovely green aura manifested around him that was absolutely pure and potent. What shocked onlookers was that the baby stopped crying and became peaceful, manifesting the same aura, though much weaker and not as concentrated.

Gunner and his son continued to resonate their bloodlines for a while until they both naturally stopped. By now, the half-giant was calm, he still wore a smile of happiness as he returned the child to his mother's arms carefully.

Gunner then sat beside the bed and held Celia's hand. She had already recovered somewhat from the tough event, but Luna provided her with a glass of Lunar Dew to drink.

Celia had already been accepted into the family, so she came to know just how wasteful they were. However, the psychic was a bit naive and ignorant thanks to her upbringing. She didn't 100% understand the value of the liquid, thanking Luna before drinking it.

Immediately, Celia glowed with purple light as her body recovered to its perfect state, and any sequelae or problems from this birth gone right away. If they gave her and Gunner some private time, they could conceive another child right away.
