Crocus Garden Hotel.
Caesar returned to the suite he shared with Mirajane.Mirajane had just finished showering and was stretching.
Her beautiful figure and tight sports clothes were a perfect sight.
"Are you done with work?"
Mirajane smiled as Caesar walked in.
"I am done, but something small happened."
Caesar walked over, hugged Mirajane's firm body, and pressed her gently onto the soft bed.He told her everything that happened in the Alvarez Empire.
Mirajane listened quietly.She nodded.
"That is fine. Giving them a proper status is better than starting something and abandoning it."
"Hey. That sounds like a personal attack. When did I ever abandon anything?"
Caesar was speechless and buried his face in her chest.
"Let us stop talking about that."
Mirajane held his head softly."But about zeref..."
"It is not a big problem."
Caesar's voice was low."I do not know what other tricks he has. But we can handle them. If we are strong enough, there is nothing to worry about."
"So we just wait?"
Mirajane looked confused.
"Of course not."
Caesar shook his head and enjoyed the soft warmth of her hands.
"When I finish everything here, I plan to complete the century quest that Gildarts failed. I also need to go to the Northern Continent to deal with something."
"Do you need me to come with you?"
Mirajane gently stroked his hair.
"No need. You should rest.Also, keep an eye on the others for me.I do not want Master scolding me when I get back."
He raised his head and touched Mirajane's belly.
"And this little guy has been staying here too long."
Mirajane laughed."Need help?"
"That would be perfect."
...
After more than an hour of work, the two fell asleep.
But not long after, the fetus in Mirajane's stomach suddenly became active.
No.It was the magic.The high concentration of magic made the fetus react.
The sudden wave woke both of them.They quickly sat up and sensed the changes.
It was not only Mirajane.
Far away in the Alvarez Empire, Timalia and Brandish were sleeping in the palace.Both women suddenly felt the same phenomenon.
Brandish ran into Timalia's room.
Timalia leaned against the headboard, stroking her stomach.
"What happened?" Brandish asked.
"It is about time for their magic to awaken."
Timalia spoke calmly.
"When magic awakens, the little one becomes restless.It is lucky His Majesty and Irene removed half the divinity and placed it into your bodies.Otherwise normal people would not survive a child playing with magic in the womb."
Brandish sighed in relief.But then she became nervous again.
Playing with magic inside the womb was terrifying.
Normally a fetus might grab the umbilical cord or drink amniotic fluid.These little ones treated magic like toys.Children born like this would be extremely powerful.
"I hope my child awakens something quiet."Brandish prayed silently.
Timalia touched her belly again.Based on her magic and Caesar's magic, she expected a child who inherited divine power.
"Child of the divine soul. When you are born, I will train you into the strongest warrior."
She murmured with pride.
The magic slowly calmed.Then she felt the temperature rise sharply.
"Temperature.Fire magic?"
She felt disappointed.The child did not seem to inherit Take Over magic of the divine soul.
But then she sensed deeper.The little one was trying to use magic.Timalia froze.
Inside her womb, the baby shone like a sun.
And then the baby began devouring the divine soul inside Timalia.Stripping divinity.Absorbing it.Growing stronger.
"This..."
Timalia trembled.
This was not fire magic.This was god slaying magic.
God Slaying Magic.
On the other side, Brandish also froze.The space around her belly twisted slightly.
This was dragon power.
Back in the Crocus Garden Hotel, Caesar and Mirajane sat stunned.
Dark magic leaked from Mirajane's stomach.As the little one stretched and kicked, her belly bulged sharply.
Take Over magic.Pure darkness.The awakened magic of the child.
Unlike Mirajane's demon soul, this child's Take Over was deeper.Purer.True dark soul magic.
Caesar felt uneasy.A child with pure darkness could go astray easily.
Power itself was not good or evil.But darkness was dangerous.
"It is fine. I feel okay."
Mirajane rubbed her belly.The child immediately quieted.
"The Demon God Mirajane.It is normal for the Demon God's child to be a little dark."
Caesar swallowed as he looked at her smiling face.
"Son. Do not be fooled by your gentle mother.If you ever go rebellious, your dad cannot save you."
He stroked her stomach.Silence for three seconds for the future of the child.
The baby lightly tapped Caesar's hand.Then stilled when Mirajane placed her hand there.
Caesar sighed.There was no chance of the child going astray.
If he tried, Mirajane would beat the rift out of him.
Are you scared, little guy?
