Chapter 181: The Two Children Blessed By Heaven

-----

My mother, my sister, and then the rest of my disciples were allowed to see my babies one after another through the day. I stayed by the side of Urbosa and Merkite through it all. In fact, I was completely glued here, and I really didn’t want to move anywhere else.

Why?

Well, they were simply too precious! They were the most beautiful, pristine, radiant, wonderful, valuable, heavenly, primordial, immemorial treasures of the entire universe, cosmos, and reality!

Just giving them a look made my heart stop! It literally stops the moment I look at them! They’re so strong, my love for them is like a lethal poison that might eventually kill me!

Because… because I just can’t imagine a world, a life, a future, without these babies now! It is as if I’ve gone through an incredible awakening, a feeling of enlightenment that changed my entire psyche.

Everything I am now in the past became a “me” before my children were born, and now I’ve been completely reborn; I live for them, and I must make a better world for these precious treasures to live happily forever.

I didn’t even give birth to them, and I feel this way!

My mother was right when she told me that someone changes the moment their children are born; it is as if a switch turns on, and everything you once were just becomes the past.

The new me is someone that must procure their survival no matter what… How ironic! I am so powerful, yet I simply can’t resist the intrinsic instincts of my body and mind.

And it makes me feel… so complete now.

Have I ever smiled so much before? So genuinely?

Never…

I think I need to calm down a bit though; I am getting too agitated!

Which is weird because I am who I am—a Primordial Immemorial Venerable!

My mind is always calm, and yet… I’m so agitated and excited, I can’t stop thinking about them.

And when I look at their cute faces sleeping, I just want to kiss their cute baby faces so much!

Uwaah!

By the Nine Heavens, someone help me.

“They’re adorable,” said Yanisse, glancing at the children in the room, staying in silence. “Oh my gosh… My heart can’t take this anymore.

“Baby… Adorable little treasures! Must protect babies, so tribe continues living!” said Fiery Hair. “Fiery Hair will have a baby too, soon! Big family soon! Big tribe! Prosperity.”

“Ahh, they’re really adorable; I never imagined the fluffy cuteness of Urbosa and Merkite could merge so well with Bing Xue’s grace and charm,” said Mursha. “Their hair and eyes are the same color as her too! But they also have many of the traits from their wolf tribe family…”

“Uwaah…” Peperina muttered. “I-I’m afraid of even touching them… They look so delicate and cute… Look at their ears, though! They’re so fluffy…”

The two babies were still drinking milk while being in a state of sleepiness, with slight awareness of their surroundings. Merkite and Urbosa were thankfully very strong and had eaten a lot before giving birth, so they weren’t exhausted from having to produce so much milk.

Nonetheless, I brought them dinner and also gave them special Energizing Potions and Pills, which gave them lots of calories and nutrients to keep them healthy, so they can also give our kids the best milk.

… Maybe that sounded weird; I just want them to not be tired.

“They’re cute, aren’t they? And so very strong! Their Auras exude so much power, I’m amazed.” I nodded.

“I feel so sleepy though; I think I’ll sleep,” yawned Urbosa.

“Me too,” agreed her sister.

“Oh! Alright then, everyone, let’s go outside. Let’s leave them in their room for now; we can’t let the mothers be exhausted, alright?”

“Ah, yeah, sure…” Yanisse nodded. “Sleep well, girls.”

And like that, the seventh day inside of my Inner Realm passed. It felt as long as a whole month because of everything that happened.

I finished the day by having some tea with my family, and I invited Yanisse and Peperina, because they were pretty much my girlfriends right now after everything.

“I am really happy for everything, Katherine, and don’t get me wrong, I will try my best to be a good grandmother,” said my mom. “But I have to ask you something: how are you planning for the kids to grow and develop? Are you going to let them go to kindergarten? And a school? Or you’re planning to homeschool them?”

“I was planning the latter; I mean, I would do it the same way I’ve raised many children in Murim! A sect is both a family and also something similar to a dojo and an academy; the children are taught how to read, mathematics, language, alchemy, and so on as they grow up,” I explained. “So it’s technically not homeschooled if I own an actual school, right?”

“Uh, I guess you’re not wrong; maybe we could do that for their first years,” nodded my mother. “But once they grow up, Katherine, you need to take into consideration their social development. Growing up sheltered in this pagoda, where they have everything and never have conflicting opinions with other people, making friends and rivalries, is not good either… I think you should definitely let them go to some school at least.”

“I agree! You can’t let the kids be homeschooled, sis; they gotta go to a good school; we can send them to one where only rich kids go, so they’re treated well and don’t go through any bullying if you’re worried about that,” said Ruby with a smile.

“I had… not considered that at all,” I said. “Honestly, I don’t know what I would even do to anybody that were to make my children upset or even cry… I would go on a murderous rampage, most likely. So by keeping them here, I would be sparing the unlucky fools that would dare do such a thing to begin with…”

“K-Katherine, you can’t think like that though!” said my mother. “I know you’re going to be an overprotective mother; I can tell! But your kids will still need to be socially capable. Isolation is not good when growing up. Why do you think you and your sister came out as such good girls? You were able to socialize in school and had childhoods interacting with people and had friends and everything, no?”

“Eh, yeah, I guess?” Ruby nodded.

“Hm,” I mumbled. “Fine, I’ll think about it. But if it ever happens, it won’t be in some backwater school, but the best available, not in the country but in the world. I’ll also need to check on everything myself. Who manages the schools, their hygiene, what they offer for food, the students that assist, every single one of them, then also every single professor, and…”

I continued addressing all the things I would check when the time came, making my mother grow more frustrated as she looked at me with disbelief.

“Come on now, isn’t this too much already?” she sighed. “Okay, I get that you’re worried and everything, but this is something your kids will have to confront one day. Look, I know there’ll be years until all of that happens, but I just wanted to tell you right now, so you have plenty of time to consider things and think through them.”

“I know…” I nodded. “I’ll think things through and see what I can do. I’ll also begin some investigations around the globe. Is there no academy or school for children with supernatural abilities yet? For awakened young’uns?”

“There are a few,” said my sister. “But the world… well, it has gone through a lot of stuff; most of the society’s energy has been spent rebuilding what was destroyed and trying to reinforce the defenses of the cities across the world. Hmm… but yeah, there should be a few; I sometimes remember seeing ads about that.”

“Okay, I’ll investigate them one by one then,” I nodded.

And if I can’t find a perfect school, then I’ll make it, or make someone else make it; I’ll find it, supervise it, and everything.

Well, wouldn’t it be easier to just purchase the best one I find and improve it until it becomes the perfect environment for my babies?

Yes, that’s a good idea!

“The kids may not stay as babies for too long; due to the factors of their own cultivation levels, their energies, and having their mother’s bloodlines, they’ll grow very quickly,” I explained. "Honestly, if it were up to me, I would love to have them as babies for a thousand years, but it's for the best of their own safety if they grow quickly as well.”

“G-Grow quickly? How fast?” My mother asked.

“I’ll boost their growth and mental development in the incoming five months using my techniques,” I said. “I’ve already discussed this with Urbosa and Merkite, and they agreed quite quickly, saying that if they could move on their own and also defend, it would be much better than having them as helpless babies. And well… usually it takes humans six years to reach the stage they’ll be once we come out of my Inner Realm, but for their tribe, it’s usually one and a half years, or two.”

“E-Eh?!” gasped my mother. “Isn’t that an incredibly fast growth?”

“Yeah…” Ruby gasped. “Woah, okay… I mean, if the girls are fine with that, I can’t say anything.”

"Honestly, even after that, they’ll still be adorable, always, forever. Even when they grow up into adults or even when they become old, my babies will always be my babies,” I nodded, smiling. “Ah, but well, I doubt they’ll ever become old. I mean, they were already born as Immortals! Or well, more like… Well, as they grow up, they’ll unseal all the power I sealed, so they should end at the beginning ranks of Primordials.”

“W-Without training?!” My sister asked.

“Wooow! My siblings are going to be super-duper strong! Can’t wait! So exciting!” Hekita, who had been eating her dinner with us, was only listening in silence but burst into joy after hearing that. “Does that mean I’ll get to play with them too, mama?”

“Yes, of course! Though I’ll have to give them a bit of training first,” I said. “As I’ll have to teach them how to properly control their strength… Seeing how they’ve inherited my powers and cultivation and are most likely imprinted with my own cultivation techniques and martial arts into their physiques and souls, they will be lethally strong! A little mistake and they might end up destroying a whole city, hahaha!”

I took it very carefreely despite the dangers, because imagining those two cuties doing such a ridiculous thing was a bit funny in my head.

However, my mother and my sister, and everyone else there except Hekita, didn’t take it as a joke.

“Y-You have to train them well, okay?!” My mom asked. “Promise me!”

“That’s scary af…” said Ruby. “Sis, please don’t let them do that!”

“They’re cute but contain so much power…” said Mursha. “W-Wait, are our kids also going to be this strong? Hmm…”

“Fiery Hair is shocked… Must raise kids well with Bing Bing… Maybe more than one would be too much for Fiery Hair, unexperienced in these things…” even Fiery Hair was shocked.

“Well, seeing how your son from the future was stronger than you, according to what you said… I can believe that,” said Yanisse.

“What’s up with all of that future son thing though?” Peperina wondered.

“Ah well, that’s…”

“We are back! What did we miss?”

Suddenly, as I was about to explain more, Merneith appeared, walking inside the palace accompanied by Heba and Sara, two of the hunters from Egypt that I had recruited as disciples too.

Heba was the “Queen of the Dunes,"  and Sara was “The Sacred Child."  The first was a powerful Sand Magician, capable of controlling the dunes back home, while Sara is a strong “Saint” archetype, a powerful healer, guardian, and enhancer.

They can also conjure holy elements and exterminate evil beings, like demons, ghosts, and other creatures… I’ve seen that Belze is not quite fond of Sara because of that too, haha.

“Well, a lot happened!” I said. “Well, come in and eat with us; I suppose a lot happened.”

At the end, I ended up going to sleep quite late as I talked a lot with all these wonderful people I’ve made my family too.

Sleeping in between Urbosa and Merkite and my two babies was heavenly though!
