Path To Godhood Begins With Marrying Wife And Gaining SSS Rank Skill - Chapter 473:X Rank Warrior Aptitude
Chapter 473:X Rank Warrior Aptitude
Ethan finally finished the work load after which he opened the system panel.He had forgotten to take a look on wedding night with Amber.
The next day he had hardly waited when urgent reports poured in about troubles brewing with trades routes blocked by novels.
He was sure it was created by the Ambrose family.
Thankfully it was solved as he offered a few chests to them and dresses to their wives.
[Host’s partner has an aptitude of X rank warrior and is at the Middle Stage of Legendary Knight.]
[Host has gained X rank warrior aptitude.]
The sudden information shocked him.
For a moment Ethan simply stared at the notification screen in silence.
If the situation had been any different, he might have completely forgotten about this ability of his bloodline.
His bloodline had the power to draw out potential from his wives.
But until now, most of the women he married had relatively lower aptitude compared to him. Because of that, the improvement he gained each time had been limited.
This time was different.
Amber possessed much higher potential.
“Oh my god…X rank…”
“Damn…”Ethan couldn’t help cursing in disbelief.
From the stories he heard,Sir Lancelot was a commoner by birth yet he has such a huge potential.
“Truly one in a billion.”
Ethan slowly leaned back in his chair and smiled faintly.
“So it finally happened,” he murmured.
He raised his hand slightly.
“Collect.”
Swoosh!
The moment he gave the command, Ethan felt a powerful surge of energy spread throughout his entire body.
It felt as if invisible chains deep inside him were suddenly snapping apart.
His bones trembled slightly and his muscles tightened while mana began circulating rapidly through his veins. The energy flowed from his chest toward every corner of his body.
The process was not painful.Instead, it felt like a heavy weight had been lifted from his body.
Invisible locks that once restrained his strength slowly broke apart one after another. His foundation felt stronger and more stable.
The energy refined his body layer by layer.His breathing became deeper and calmer.
His senses grew sharper.
Even the flow of mana inside his body became smoother than before.
Ethan quietly sat there and allowed the power to settle within him. His fingers tapped lightly on the armrest of the chair while the last traces of energy slowly faded.
After several minutes the surge finally calmed down.
Ethan opened his eyes and exhaled slowly.
“Not bad,” he said quietly.
“System…Compared to this,the SSS origin bloodline feels inadequate, doesn’t it?”
[Host,you are underestimating it.]
[SSS is the peak power from your world.It feels low because the ceiling of this world is higher compared to that one.]
“Oh!”Ethan nodded with an understanding gaze.
…
Meanwhile another piece of good news soon arrived.
Amber had become pregnant.
When Duke Lancelot heard this news, his first reaction was pure shock.
“What?”
His eyes widened slightly in disbelief.
“I did not imagine there would be a child so soon.”
He rubbed his forehead and paced slowly across the room.
“My own daughter still behaves like a child sometimes.”
“How is she supposed to take care of another child?”
His expression looked both worried and confused.
But after thinking for a moment, he gradually calmed down.The estate was full of experienced women and servants who could help.
Amber would not be alone.
There were many people who would help raise the child.
With that thought, Duke Lancelot sighed deeply.
“Well… I suppose things will work out.”
Meanwhile inside the estate Amber received careful attention every day.
Servants and attendants made sure she rested well. Doctors visited frequently to examine her condition.
Ethan himself often came to see her whenever he had time.
Sometimes he simply sat beside her and talked quietly.Other times he checked the reports of the doctors personally.
As the months passed, Amber’s belly gradually grew larger.
At first she felt a little embarrassed by the sudden changes in her body. She would sometimes hide behind blankets when people visited her room.
But slowly her mindset began to change.
Feeling the small life gradually forming inside her womb changed something deep within her.
Her thoughts became calmer.
Her behavior became more mature.
There was a quiet sense of responsibility in her eyes now.
A faint but unusual aura slowly began surrounding her body.
Ethan noticed the change immediately.
Normally a person’s aura weakened slightly during pregnancy.
But Amber’s aura seemed to grow stronger instead.
It became more refined and more stable.
It almost felt as if her entire being was slowly transforming.
Ethan could not fully understand the reason.
Perhaps it was the emotional transformation of becoming a mother.
Or perhaps something deeper was happening inside her body.Either way, she had clearly changed.
Half a month later the long awaited day finally arrived.
Amber was pushed into the delivery room.
Ethan naturally waited outside the door.
He stood quietly in the corridor with his arms folded.
Several servants moved nervously through the hallway while preparing hot water and clean cloth.
Doctors and midwives hurried in and out of the room.
The atmosphere felt tense.
Ethan remained calm but his eyes never left the door.
Time seemed to pass slowly.
Then twenty minutes later a loud cry suddenly echoed from inside the room.
The cry of a newborn baby.
At the same moment a powerful aura fluctuation burst out from the delivery room.
The entire building trembled slightly.
The air itself seemed to shake.
Even the ground beneath their feet vibrated faintly.
Ethan’s eyes widened.
This was the first time he had experienced something like this.
“Ah!”
“What’s going on?”
“Are we under attack?”
Several servants and guards panicked immediately.
Some guards even drew their weapons.
Ethan quickly stepped forward to stabilize the situation.
But before he could say anything, Mareti spoke calmly beside him.
“Don’t worry.”
“This is just a normal process when a strong individual is born and the world recognizes it.”
Ethan paused and looked at him.
“Normal…?”
“Yes,” Mareti replied calmly.
“Children born with powerful talent sometimes cause this kind of reaction.”
Hearing this explanation, Ethan slowly relaxed.
Then another notification appeared before his eyes.
[Detected the birth of history offspring.]
[The child is born with X rank Knight potential and hidden talent Berserker.]
[Reward: Special Gift *1]
Ethan froze for a moment.
“X rank…”
“Hidden talent…”
He sucked in a cold breath.
Even for someone like him, this was shocking.
But after a few seconds he slowly calmed himself.There would be time later to examine everything carefully.
Right now his attention remained fixed on the door of the delivery room where his child had just been born.
His expression slowly softened.
For the first time that day, a small but genuine smile appeared on his face.
