Marcus eyes hadn't left Constantine face and his continued murmuring and shaking of his head was not reassuring him one bit he couldn't help but ask. What is wrong with them Constantine you're the royal healer you can't tell me you don't have any answers yet.
Oh i have answer's it just the answer is give me questions i can not answer, question that no one has ever encountered and i am more than scared for the world if this child is born.said Constantine as he stops his observation.
What is wrong with my child Constantine, said the panic voice of the soon to be mother, Amelia Miles wife of Marcus Miles the Duke of Crantins.
Well nothing is wrong really it's more what the child has done that disturb me said Constantine.
Speak Constantine and stop wasting our time with those murmuring of yours said the impatient and increasely annoyed Marcus.
Fine no need to get triggered Duke Marcus, your child as done something that is supposed to be impossible,he has awaken in the womb.
That impossible no one awaken before the age of thirteen,that the lowest age of awakening said a completely surprise Marcus.
That what i can't understand, because to awaken the body needs to select an elemental affinity that the core will from with enabling us to use said elemental ability, but your child just keeps absorbing Mana which means he's already awaken at five months.
Incredible so what do i need to do about my condition said Amelia looking at increasingly skinny self.
It simple actually my lady, you just need to be in a place with high density Mana so you both can have your feel and also eat a lot because the child we need the nutrients in other to continue to process the mana.
Thank you Constantine I'm greatfull for your assistance and I'm guessing you will be reporting this to his highness right.
As i have to,my lord,he permitted me to assist you he will most definitely want to know how things went.
Fine tell him i will be coming to the palace tomorrow so we can discuss on some important issues.
I shall do that my lord ,i will take my leave and please take good care of yourself my lady what you carry is most definitely the future of humanity.with that he left.
The Palace (The next day).
King Augustus Celeste sat in his throne room contemplating his next move while digesting the news he heard from Constantine yesterday, such power must be brought under his control or stopped from existing enterally.because if nothing is done before the child is bron and allowed to be strong enough he might as well be the last Celeste to sit on this throne. No the child will be under the Celeste name or not be allowed to see the world, and he has the perfect plan to facilitate his idea. Hmmm,he has arrived, said King Augustus to no one in particular.
Marcus greet his royal highness.
Welcome Marcus,i must say congratulations are in order, to father such an extraordinary child must feel you with great pride.said the king
You honor me your highness I thank you for permitting Constantine to assist my house hold. Marcus replied.
Please it's the least i could do for your continued support after all we friends must stick together in this brutal world were power in the wrong hands can be seen as dangerous.
Marcus (face tighten).is his highness feeling threatened by my unborn child. Immediately he said that the clouds changed above the palace and lighting started to strike randomly with the King's (SS+) power began to full the room.
Marcus standing there had to use his own (SS) power on him self to be able to stand and look at the king who has already prove his point with this display though he didn't release it outward as that could be seen as challeng which he his not trying to imply.
Marcus i will let that stupid statement pass because you are my friend do not insult me like so ever again.said the king
Marcus bow his head while saying, forgive me your highness (yeah with that look on your face it shows that your first taught was definitely to kill the child) taught Marcus.
Well i shall forgive you this time and as a show of my trust in our friendship i shall unite our house after all there is no one more fit for such an extraordinary child than a prince or princess.said the king with a little smile.
So that was his plan to begin with he just needed a reason, infact anything i do or said would have ended with the same speech from him.taught Marcus but he actually replied with
As you wish your highness.
Good said the king with his smile actually increasing to a full laughter.then he continued saying,my daughter Serena is going to be two by the time the child is bron if it's a boy they should make a good match but if it happens the child is a girl even better she shall marry my second son Victor he should be four by then.this must be sign from the Gods that our house be united.
It's as you said your highness i listen and obey.
Good i shall announce the proposal so every vulture out there knows to mess with your child his to mess with me.
Well i guess this is the best i can hope for even though he's greedy he is also a greater deterant in the protection of my love and the child she carries taught Marcus.
I thank his highness for such consideration,i shall take my leave now Amelia still in need of my attention as some arrangements are yet to be completed.
You may leave while i carry out the engagement announcement the queen must also be informed so arrangements can be made on her side as well.
Marcus bow and then left the throne room to return to his home.
(Some days after the announcement)
A meeting was being attended by humanity strongest with the exception of just one,it was his decision that they are here to discuss, the six in attendance includes
Bennett Tellus the king of Tel
Ariana Tenebrae the queen of Ebrae
Vincent Aeris the king of Agoris
Camila Estelle the queen of Estel
Lucius Augustus the king of August, and lastly
Caius Adamaris the king of Maris.
Though they were not all physically present except for one which is King Caius who is hosting the meeting through a call.as he began the meeting by saying.
I know you all must have heard the news so i will ask does anyone know why he has made such a decision. He saw everyone shaking their heads except Ariana and thought to himself just like i suspected she knows something and so did the other, after all she is the queen of shadows for a reason.he then say to her.
Ariana if you would please enlightened us all it will be much appreciated.but she just looks at everyone like they were a joke and remain quiet. Caius sighs and said what he knows she wanted to hear,we will all give you two S rank cores each, the other didn't even bother to argue because they know she will take nothing less even if the information is totally useless.after hearing that and seeing no one disagree Ariana finally smiled like she was among her best of friends while saying.
Thank you all for such generous contributions i really appreciate the gift. Everyone thinks (contribution my foot more like extortion you greedy bitch).
Since i am among friends off cause I will share the information you all wish to know.(Now for those thinking what if they don't give her the goods, well the pride of kings and queens will not allow such powerful people to go back on their words,so as much as they hate to they will pay). Everyone rows their eyes but remain quiet so she continues. I have on good authority that Marcus and Amelia child seems to be very special,so much so that it can already affect it mother physically after five months in the womb,so Augustus decided to tie it with his family even before it's born in other to claim it.
What is so special about the child though asked Vincent looking annoyed at her lack of complete information.
That i don't know yet there Vincent but if my guess is of any importance i will say it and awaken child
Everyone screams: IMPOSSIBLE
I never said it was true just it is most likely reasonable considering how quickly he acted after his royal healer check on the mother and child.
If this is true then a terrifying existence is about to be born we can not allowed that to happen Camila said with a serious expression on her face.
While you are right unless we plan to attack ourselves or send in overwhelming force don't bother because Augustus already assigned two of his generals to protect the mother and child to make sure it's carried to term also do not for get the fact that the father is a Duke meaning he is of SS rank and even for any of us Marcus would be a problem to deal with that without adding that old woman and her husband don't know about you but we will lose to much and gain nothing in return.
Off cause you are still talking through your greedy mouth you would lose everything if that child is bron and become to powerful to put under control said Camila.
That where we're different love i don't plan to control any one just looking for more partners, if he does become more powerful than us he will most definitely be able to pay more for my service that good business to me.
Enough of this nonsense even though i don't like the fact that the child might surpass me i still refuse to get rid of it said Bennett with a smile on his face.
And why do you think that asked Caius.
Simple actually we are the weakest in this world that used to be ours now we are literally only still standing because we put our heads down and will require a little effort which the other don't want to waste to make us extinct, this is no way to live so if someone strong is to be born in the human race that can actually protect it why not support the child after all if he's to rule he will most definitely start from Ceste which is not my domain so all is good.
That is actually a good point,then all in favor of letting the child live show of hands Caius asked while raising his.everyone did apart from Camila who snorted and hang up ending the meeting with the desion to spear the child if only for now.
