The celestial dragon coiled around amon for a short while as though she was playing with him, while vela watched with a faint smile on her lips.
Just then, the door swing open with a loud rumble and a middle aged man with disheved clothes and hair stepped inside.
His long black hair was a mess as he rushed to stagger inside the room, his gaze immediately shifting to the duo.
"I'm sorry I wasn't there the moment he was born," he apologized as he stepped forward reaching to caress the smooth face of his wife.
Vela stared at him for an instant, "from a star gate?"
The man nodded.
She let out a shaky breath then turned to amon still cradled in her arms, "meet our son,"
The man's gaze shifted to amon, his piercing red eyes looking through the youth.
A smile softened his cold facial features.
'my father in this life...' amon understood, but another thing tugged at the corner of his mind, 'star gate?'
Yet another mystery about this world he didn't understand.
He still didn't feel disheartened. It was only a matter of time.
'at least a unique new world is opening itself to me gradually.'
Abrubtly, amon felt something internally, and a feeling of immense hunger surged through every fiber of his being...
He struggled to keep it in but...
Waaaa... Waaaa
Like a dam that had been broken his cry poured out from his eyes breaking the thoughts of the couple.
"err, what do we do?" Anna turned nervously to stare at her husband.
Seth looked panicked as well but he tried to keep himself calm throwing out a series of questions.
"did you mistakenly pinch him? Have you fed him ever since? Does he not like me?"
"wait! I... Haven't fed him ever since!" vela gently interrupted then immediately pulled down her dress and amon finally felt a warm liquid enter into his mouth.
Vela turned to seth, her face still red as a tomato then said in a shy voice, "g—go and take a bath in the mean time. You have to get yourself cleaned up."
Seth nodded, however for a brief moment his gaze shifted down to vela causing her embarrassment to heighten.
...
A short while passed before amon finally felt sated and stopped sucking on his mother, instead he closed his eyes and pretended to fall asleep.
Noticing this, vela quietly placed him gently into his cradle to not startle him awake then tiptoed out of the room.
The moment she stepped out, his eyes swung open.
He glanced around briefly and seeing no one in the room he let out a relieved sigh.
'it's truly too difficult being a baby.'
With that he closed his eyes back and continued his absorption of primordial energy.
The silence reigned in the room for a long while and soon amon felt someone enter the room.
Thinking it was his mother, he lightly opened his eyes to not be startled like the previous time.
However rather than his mother all he saw was a maid.
Dressed in a black and white serene robe she radiated an air of purity.
'is she here to check up on me?' amon thought, however noticing her glancing around to check if anyone was coming before shutting the door he had his suspicions.
He noticed the moment she confirmed that no one was coming she retrieved a gleaming dagger from her leaves and silently approached his location.
'an assassination?'
Amon was shocked!
His mind screamed internally at him as all sorts of thoughts crashed h to his mind as he pondered on a way to get out of the crisis be falling him.
'status panel!' he called out internally.
The runes twisted and shifted before materialising the same information as before.
Amon glanced through then, once then a second time.
There was really no other way...
Would he die just a few hours after coming to this world?
Many thoughts flashed through amonvs mind as he struggled to find a way to survive the crisis.
The maid didn't give him the time to ponder for too as she was already at the edge of his cradle.
'what do I do?'
Amon watched as she raised the gleaming dagger above him when suddey he thought of somethibg.
'that's right! I can absorb primordial energy from the air and they enter into vein like networks in my body. What if I...'
He didn't have time to ponder in the plan and could inky bet his life on this.
Bang!
Amkb inhaled briefly, feeling primordial energy surge through him, then he exhaled forcing out most of the primordial energy in his veins.
The process created a wave of excruciating pain through out his body and for a moment he felt he was being burnt alive.
A transparent immaterial glow burst out from him the moment the main poised to strike, colliding with her and colliding with the dagger, sending it flying and crashing onto the ground with a loud land.
Subconsciously, a milky-white glow appeared briefly on the main, and a panicked expression appeared on her face.
She turned her body around and bolted towards the window, however her movements froze and the door swing open.
She stiffly turned her gaze to a middle aged man, still soaked in water as he entered into the room with a bang.
A chill spread through the air as his gaze landed on the maid.
"you—my lord it's not what you think!" although the maid said this, a little creature the side of a youth's arm had already condensed from her midsection.
Seth, filled with anger didn't hesitate to send a punch flying in the direction of the little celestial dragon before she could fuse with it although it wouldn't matter much.
He took a step forward and was already In front of the maid whose eyes went wide in shock.
Then, his fist struck towards her abdomen and the sound of glass shattering was heard.
The maid whose face had drained of color the moment her celestial dragon was killed, became weakened once more the moment her celestial core was crushed.
Misty liquid surged briefly from her spreading into the air and dispersing into light breeze.
Seth turned to a few guards who had entered the room at some point in time.
"take her to the cell for questioning. I will be with you shortly."
After giving the order he no longer paid attention to the guards.
Once someone's core was destroyed they would immediately lose all sense of strength within their body for a long time before regaining themselves
And even after regaining themselves they would be no different from ordinary humans, possessing no divine path.
Seth took a few brisk strides towards Amon's cradle.
He finally exhaled in relief upon seeing the little baby still alive.
Hie eyes were wide as though he had finally seen something truly surprising!
'this... Power! Power! I must have it!!!'
Amon's mind was filled with thoughts of his father's strength and the strength of the maid…
