Chapter 1629: The Baby’s Power 2

“A-Ahaha, okay, okay, sorry, I mean, I think your baby is connected to another realm or plane of existence, maybe another world,” Gardenia said out of nowhere.

“Wait, what?!” I asked. “W-What do you mean?! Is that dangerous? is my baby getting kidnaped to another world or something?”

“None of that! Calm down, geez…” Gardenia rolled her eyes. “You see, what’s happening is that, just like the fairies here who are born connected to Avalon, your baby is being born connected to some other world or realm.”

“…But why?” I asked.

“No idea, maybe it’s a thing that they got from you…” Said Gardenia. “After all, a child is connected to their mother until birth, and it could be said that both are one single living being in a way. Your baby is, right now, sharing your powers and constantly assimilating them, turning them into their own. Probably it’s also inheriting this connection you’ve got with… Arcadia, most likely.”

“Eh?!” I was shocked. “T-To Arcadia?”

“Yep, I believe the boy might be connected to that world, I don’t know if that connection will continue after they’re born though…” Gardenia said, rubbing her chin. “But it’s interesting. That probably means that, like you, it might awaken some sort of Avatar.”

“E-Even without creating an account?” I wondered.

“Yeah, but that’s just a theory, nothing really confirmed there,” she said. “But even then, doesn’t that make it pretty exciting? That baby might be the first ever to be born connected to Arcadia and even the System… it could mean that in the future, other awakened like you may do it, creating a whole race that is born with two bodies, one in this world and another in Arcadia.”

“That’s strange though… And I don’t know if that’s something the Gods intended either,” I said. “Or whoever designed the game or the system…”

“Hmm, BNLO is certainly a joint effort between the gods, the system, and another third party, most likely the developers. I assume they might be all powerful magicians with… well, that might be masters of Technomancy, a really rare type of magic probably only possible in Earth,” she explained. “Whatever the case, aren’t you curious? All this time you’ve never thought about visiting that company and just asking them some questions. Like what’s the purpose behind BNLO and so on… I think you have the right to ask those things, based on everything you’ve done for them.”

“Hmmm, well, I don’t know… I also fear it might not be possible, I mean, it shouldn’t be that easy right?” I wondered. “But yes I am quite curious… I think they’re in Japan though.”

“Huh, well, once you make the trip there, we could go check them out and ask for some answers,” she said. “I’m sure they’ll have to comply; you’re right now their biggest asset and the one that has been helping them the most. I doubt they will ever try to harm you. I even believe they could welcome you with warmth.”

“Hm, well, they’re really mysterious… I have no idea what’s even their plan anymore,” I sighed. “Whatever the case, stopping the Demon Kings seem crucial not only to save Arcadia but our world… as you can see, they can now invade Earth and even Avalon now.”

“Indeed… thing are getting more dangerous, but aren’t you excited?” giggled Gardenia.

“E-Excited? About what? There’s no way I would be excited about danger…” I sighed.

“I know but you’ve got dragon blood inside of you now, they’re really good fighters, they love battles. And to be honest, I’ve seen how you enjoy them, even if you dislike admitting it… Elayne~ you’re getting pretty good at fighting and you’ve adapted really well to this new world,” Gardenia said. “Honestly, I’m quite proud of what I’ve shaped you into! Hm!”

“W-What are you even talking about…” I groaned. “Ah, whatever… I’m hungry… Mark? Mark…”

I quickly woke him up, as he slowly opened his sleepy eyes, smiling at me.

“G-Good morning…” he yawned. “What hour is it?”

“Like ten in the morning,” I said. “Let’s have breakfast, I’m hungry…”

“Sure, sorry about oversleeping,” he said waking up and stretching his arms. “Huh? Wait that belly, isn’t it a tiny bit bigger now?”

“Y-You noticed? Wow, you really are observant, haha,” I laughed. “Well, yeah, Gardenia here told me that the baby can grow faster in this Realm due to Spirit Energy and Mana concentrations being so rich.”

“Huh? How does that work?” he asked.

“Well, apparently our baby is a spirit too,” I said with a smile. “And… well, as she said…”

I explained to him the whole conversation I had with Gardenia, as Mark finally understood what happened, I also told him about what could the baby be, and while we took a shower in that little bath and went down to the inn’s tavern to have some local breakfast, he learned about the baby inheriting his flames, which made him really happy.

“So that’s what’s going on… That’s kind of a lot to take in but I think I get it,” Mark said, as he drank some of the creamy Flower Dew Milk. “I mean, I’m ready for anything, even if the baby is born out of nowhere, I’m ready. I’m really am.”

“Well, thank you Mark, I appreciate it,” I said, caressing his hand. “But don’t worry too much, I think things are just fine for now… Uh, so where should we get going, Katherine?”

Everyone else had already walked to the tavern after waking up and taking a bath, sitting around a wooden table with us, and enjoying a huge breakfast of local food, which had a lot of fruits, flowers, syrup, and milk. Ah yeah, and pastries, Fairies love their pastries.

“Oh yeah, about that, I think we’re moving through the road, if we get going soon, we might be able to get through the Crystal Forest and then reach the village nearby, it’s mostly composed of Gnomes, Brownies, and Goblins. It’s a mining village,” said Katherine.

“Mining you say? I do have a knack for that, we could mine some rare materials while we are on the way, right Elayne?” Lily asked.

“Sure thing,” I nodded.
