The seasons had shifted, autumn had come and passed and winter had done the same. Today was a day at the peak of summer, the Sun was directly above people's heads.
Inside his room, Harry was nervously looking on and Evis was performing her operation on Lilly who had gritted teeth.
As the curtains gently floated in the wind and the song of birds gently sprinkled into their ears, the sound of a baby's cry rang out. Making Harry wake up from his daze and look at them.
Evis breathed out and with a wave of her hand, which made many Powers activate and protect the baby in all necessary ways.
She also made it easy for the baby without an injection or painful processes due to her powers.
Evis then looked at Harry with a gentle smile and said, "It's a baby girl Dad. But she is quite fragile, so take her with care."
Filled with nervousness and unknown emotions, Harry took the baby into his arms. "Lilly, look at her... She is such a cute thing already. Evis, let mom and grandma in!"
Nodding, Evis went to let them in. They hadn't been allowed inside the whole time.
Lilly looked to the side with a sweaty and tired face. She could faintly hear the baby's cries and Harry gently held her hands.
"You did it, Lilly. You did it! We now have an angel of our own."
Lilly nodded but then shook her head weakly. "We did it. I wanna see her face before I fall asleep."
Harry smilingly showed her the red-faced baby and smiled. Lilly also smiled and said, "She can't even open her eyes."
It was at this moment that Emma and Valeria entered with relieved expressions. Their bellies were also very big but they didn't mind that and Emma gently took the girl from Harry.
"Mom..." Harry muttered in dissatisfaction but went to his Lilly's side regardless. She was too tired and weak.
Emma smiled at the baby, and said proudly, "I am finally a grandmother."
Harry just toned everything out and kissed Lilly's forehead and said, "Rest, you deserve it."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSilently, Lilly drifted off into sleep. But even as she left, she clung to his hands as her whole life depended on it.
Harry gently let her do what she wanted and looked at his Mother and Grandmother who was happily caring for the child.
He took a deep breath in pride and happiness. This was it, right? What he always wanted.
Even being this far, he could sense her body was covered in a sense of protection. Even if a Stage 5 Gifted of Mystry wanted to harm the little one, he would need a day to leave a scratch on her.
"Mom, give her to me... Lilly won't let me move."
"Ha, suffer. You were always with her even though we were pregnant too. Now don't come. Let me spoil my granddaughter!" Emma was too happy to bother and played around with her granddaughter.
"Yes, Such a cute girl doesn't deserve a Dad like you! Come baby, your great grandma will be your dad!" Valeria exclaimed in her own way.
As they were playing around though, Emma and Valeria didn't fail to notice the visible strength in the little body.
Other than the protection Evis left behind, there was also the baby's body that felt too strong for a baby. It seemed fragile and strong at the same time.
Harry sighed and knew he was not going to get his little one any time soon. He had been a bit negligent on Emma and Valeria the past few weeks. Lilly was nearing her labor and she was kind of an attention seeker.
He had to be there most of the time through her pains. But for them, those were precious memories.
Smiling at the happy thoughts, he turned on his System. "Hey, System, tell me my little one's status."
[Yes, Host.] The system replied. It had long gotten back the once-sacrificed sentience.
[Baby, Name yet to be given]
Bloodline: Dragon Bloodline of Seven Sins.
Strength: 3
Defence: 4
Agility: 1
Stamina: 1
.......]
Harry chuckled at the status. Indeed, she was no kid of a human after all. She was the baby of a Seven Sins Dragon.
He had long evolved his bloodline of Lust Dragons by combining all the bloodlines he found in Mystry and transforming them into this. His Body grew much stronger and his descendants will also benefit from it.
Of course, Lilly had been impregnated way before he became a Seven Sin Dragon, but with Evis' help, it was easy to make her bloodline stronger just after she was born.
Both the baby's previous bloodline and the current one were of the same source. So she just completed it when she was born using Harry's bloodline as a catalyst.
She also gave her the protection alongside it.
Thinking of all that, Harry smilingly looked a himself in the mirror. He had become much more mature in the last few months than he had in years.
Not only because of the small beard but also his mind. He had changed from a simple lustful young man who was ambitious.
He had become a Dad. A husband. A warrior who had fought wars and a Cultivator who had long surpassed this land's meaning of strength.
Silently, Harry fell asleep beside the bed, his head resting on it with Lilly's hands held tightly in his hands. He was also tired after all of that.
He needed some respite after the 10-month-long training he had gone through.
Evis, his Grandma and Mother gently looked at the duo sleeping and smiled.
"Both of them are truly of the same type. Really, I don't understand how both of them ended up being the ones who had the most progress all throughout the competition." Anna came in from outside and said with a smile. She had long become a woman who had put her shy and silent side aside.
Chuckling, Evis said, "Lilly was way more talented than you guys in the mind department. Only Emilia stands a chance against her progress."
Emma said with pride, "Of course, they are my children. They would obviously be special."
The women chuckled and then they looked at the baby girl. Immediately, their hearts melted.
"She should be the first child royalty for the past decade or so, right?" Valeria asked, "So, is the Isiah family not going to hold banquets?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Banquet?" Evis chuckled, "We wi feed the whole world on her behalf. But first, let my stupid Dad wake up and give her a name."
Anna gently held her finger for the baby to hold and the silent girl clenched her hands. Causing surprise to flash on her face.
"So strong!"
"Her body might seem like a baby, but it is a dragon body. As of now, she doesn't have any draconic characteristics but she will have it with age. Her body is far stronger than Human adults."
Anna's body was much stronger as a Cultivator, so she didn't get hurt but that gentle hold would have snapped a regular human's bones.
"What do you think he would name her?" Emma wondered, gently patting the girl's head.
She was also a bit more developed from birth than a baby. Her head wasn't all soft, nor was she any fragile.
But for the current people in the room, she was really like a kid. To them, she was as weak as a Baby.
Harry suddenly muttered in his sleep, "Luna... I will name her Luna Isiah. My...second daughter."
Evis looked at his sleeping form with a warmed heart. But she also felt a twinge of sadness.
The girl, Raina had viciously cursed Harry and abandoned her position as his daughter. It was a reasonless betrayal that nobody had expected.
Even though Harry had cared for the girl like a precious person, she had abandoned him and went away with a Cultivation Method in her hand that Harry had passed down on a good day.
Some of them had been enraged at her, but Harry only said one thing. "She will come back. But I no longer have a daughter by the name Raina."
Nobody knew what really was up, but Harry didn't speak about it. Only her brother Rome knew that it was all Raina's selfishness.
Hardy had been so good to them, that he had never even laid a hand on her. But she had still left. Why? Her brother also did not know, but he knew, it was probably not Harry's fault.
Harry then said in the same sleepy mutter, "...as for the rebellious girl who wants to prove me wrong, I...am not wrong."
The ladies in the room looked at him and couldn't help but pause their conversations.
A young lady who was climbing up a tree in an ancient forest looked back and took a deep breath.
No matter what, she will prove him wrong. No matter what!
Harry chuckled in his sleep. A long, deep and relieved chuckle.
