Time passed to a few days later.
Just as they had guessed, Mayibeia's due date fell within these few days.
And today, Mayibeia suddenly felt as if her stomach was being tightly bound. It began to tighten and harden, accompanied by wave after wave of intense pain like being cut by a knife.
This sudden sharp pain made Mayibeia furrow her brows. Fine beads of sweat also appeared on her forehead.
Galdaruf, who had been quietly accompanying Mayibeia by her side, was startled when he saw this.
He immediately realized something was wrong and quickly tightly held Mayibeia's hand, anxiously shouting, "Landlady! Mayi is about to give birth!"
His voice was especially loud in the quiet room. Even the landlady downstairs heard it clearly.
Hearing Galdaruf's shout, the landlady couldn't be bothered with what she was doing. She hurriedly put down the things in her hands and rushed toward the tavern entrance like the wind.
Because she knew that at this moment, time was life. She had to find the midwife on this street as quickly as possible to help with the delivery.
Although she had already rehearsed it many times in her mind, when the day actually came, she still couldn't help feeling nervous.
During the time the landlady was gone, Mayibeia's stomach pain became even more intense, as if the child was stirring inside her belly.
However, it was surprising that despite such pain, Mayibeia, relying on her strong physique as a member of the demon race, actually endured it without making a sound.
She only kept her eyes tightly closed. Her lips were slightly pale, but cold sweat on her forehead kept rolling down like broken beads.
Watching Mayibeia being so strong, Galdaruf only felt heartache for her.
He didn't dare to delay in the slightest and immediately began chanting a healing spell, hoping to relieve Mayibeia's pain this way.
As he chanted, a soft green light gradually enveloped Mayibeia, seeming to bring her a trace of comfort.
Not long after, the landlady hurried in from outside the room with several middle-aged women.
These women were all experienced midwives in this area who were skilled at delivering babies. Moreover, they all knew Mayibeia and would not discriminate against her because she was from the demon race.
...
Some time later, Dan Feng and Roxy came over from their house and walked into the tavern together.
However, what surprised them was that the first floor was completely empty.
"Hmm? Where's the landlady?" Roxy muttered in confusion.
Just as she was feeling puzzled, Dan Feng suddenly sensed some unusual sounds.
The footsteps on the second floor sounded somewhat chaotic. This meant there weren't only the landlady and Galdaruf upstairs—there seemed to be other people as well.
Moreover, judging from the direction of the sounds, these people should be in Mayibeia's room.
These clues intertwined, and a thought instantly flashed through Dan Feng's mind: Mayibeia was giving birth!
"Mayibeia is giving birth. Let's go up and take a look first," Dan Feng decided immediately. He grabbed Roxy's hand and rushed up the stairs without another word.
"Eh???" Roxy was completely stunned by Dan Feng's actions. She hadn't even had time to understand what Dan Feng had said before being dragged all the way up to the second floor.
As soon as they reached the second floor, their eyes fell directly on the landlady standing outside Mayibeia's room with an anxious face.
Hearing the footsteps coming from the stairs, the landlady quickly turned her head.
She saw Dan Feng tightly holding Roxy's hand as he quickly walked up.
"Dan Feng! Roxy! Mayibeia is giving birth!" The landlady's voice carried obvious anxiety.
Dan Feng and Roxy had just come up when they heard the landlady's somewhat anxious words. Just from her tone, they could hear her concern for Mayibeia.
"Landlady, there's no need to worry. With Mayibeia's physique, giving birth isn't a difficult matter. It's just a bit painful," Dan Feng said words to comfort the landlady, but his body instantly transformed into his Vidyadhara form.
Immediately after, Dan Feng condensed energy in his hand. A pure white lotus flower instantly appeared in his hand.
"Landlady, place this on Mayibeia's body. It can eliminate her pain," Dan Feng controlled the lotus flower to slowly float down into the landlady's hand.
Feeling the cool touch in her hand, the landlady nodded, opened the door, and quickly walked inside.
At the same time, Dan Feng changed back to his human form.
"Dan Feng, is Mayibeia really okay? Is giving birth very painful?"
"Don't worry, Roxy. It'll definitely be fine. As for whether giving birth is painful, I've never given birth, so I don't know."
...
When the landlady carried the white lotus flower and slowly walked into the room, the atmosphere inside was clearly heavy.
At this moment, Mayibeia was at the critical moment of delivery. Her body trembled slightly from extreme exertion. The veins on her forehead were bulging, showing that she was using all her strength.
Galdaruf beside her nervously watched Mayibeia. He was casting healing magic, continuously pouring magic power into Mayibeia's body in an attempt to relieve the immense pain she was enduring.
The landlady quickly walked to Galdaruf's side and said anxiously, "Galdaruf, take this and place it on Mayibeia." As she spoke, she handed the snow-white lotus flower to Galdaruf.
Galdaruf's peripheral vision happened to catch sight of this lotus flower. He immediately associated it with Dan Feng, because Dan Feng had used this kind of flower's ability before.
However, he didn't hesitate in the slightest. He quickly reached out to take the lotus flower and carefully placed it on Mayibeia.
The moment the lotus flower made contact with Mayibeia's body, it seemed to come alive. It quickly bloomed with dazzling light, then turned into a stream of white light and instantly merged into Mayibeia's body.
In that instant, the pain in Mayibeia's body rapidly disappeared, and an unknown force was even helping her complete the delivery.
As time passed, Mayibeia used all her strength. That unknown force had completely transformed into Mayibeia's own strength.
With one strong push, she instantly relieved the weight from her body.
A baby's cry was heard. The baby was born smoothly.
"Congratulations, Mayibeia and Galdaruf. Your child is a girl." The midwife placed the child beside the bed. Mayibeia only needed to turn slightly to see her own child.
Seeing this, Mayibeia revealed a motherly expression and used her left hand to stroke her child.
"Husband, this is our child. She's so ugly," Mayibeia chuckled, as if the pain she had just experienced didn't exist.
"Mm, you've worked hard, Mayi. Rest well from now on," Galdaruf tightly held Mayibeia's hand that was resting on the child, conveying his love for her.
The two of them completely ignored the baby's crying.
