?648 Descendants Of Orion
Four and a half months later
Orion paced restlessly outside the room.
"Don't worry, they are going to be alright," Crystalia said, looking at Orion with a warm smile.
"Yes, Crystalia is right. Ursa, Reena, Greta, your mother, Ingrid, and the others are all strong won. I'm sure they can handle this," rida said, agreeing with Crystalia's words.
Though they understood the reason for Orion's anxiousness, they didn't want to see him pacing up and down worriedly like this.
Orion heard their words and sighed in response.
Although he understood their thoughts, there was no way that he could stop himself from worrying about the results when it was over. Though he knew that childbearing wouldn't be an easy task for all the won, he was also aware that Vivian, Celia, Derry, and Ingrid were going to experience several difficulties before giving birth.
That alone added another layer of worry to his already concerned self.
Even if Greta had prepared a special herbal mixture for them and the ones shared with everyone else, Greta had confird that she didn't know how effective it would be or if it would work.
Currently, there was a fifty-fifty chance that neither they nor the baby could make it or only one of them.
Orion could feel his restlessness shoot into another dinsion as several more minutes elapsed with no sound inside the room.
"Orion, I don't think Ingrid and the others would want you to be this hard on yourself. Though I understand it might be extrely difficult for them to make it through this session, they are my friends. I believe they possess the strength to pass through this easily, and as their partner, you should, too. It would be bad if you worry too much to the extent that you mix up or montarily forget the nas that you all have co up with for your children, right?" Grandma ldra observed Orion with a smile, briefly chuckling.
She had taken care of all of them before the arrival of Orion's Prisrion wives, so she was well aware of the won's nature and their temperants.
Crystalia, rida, Gina, and Saria, who were present, nodded in agreent.
Orion imdiately halted his steps and breathed out deeply.
"Yes, you are right. They would all be unhappy if they found out that I had been burdening myself like this," Orion responded with a deep sigh, nodding in agreent as he stared at the blue-silver-haired woman beside him.
Witnessing this scene, rida, Crystalia, and Grandma ldra all sighed in relief.
Suddenly, the sounds of several footsteps walking up the stairs resonated in their ears, and they all turned their heads in that direction to see who it was.
Imdiately, the figures of Anara with Grace in her arms, Dariya, Malaia, and three more tree nymph overseers following behind her ca into view.
Orion imdiately walked over and gently took Grace from Anara's arms.
Witnessing this, Anara loudly snorted in response but still gently handed over Grace to him, saying, "You aren't even going to greet with a kiss," while staring at Orion with a cold gaze.
Without hesitation, Orion wrapped his arm around Anara's waist, pulling her over before giving a warm, wet kiss.
Crystalia, Maya, and the others chuckled at the scene, as they were already used to Anara's character and the blunt manner in which she expressed her emotions.
Orion then nodded at Dariya and Malaia with warm emotions in his eyes. Though Dariya and Malaia had already confessed their feelings for him, Orion surprisingly wanted to understand them more before taking further steps. However, he had been extrely busy constructing the new settlent ho for the Prisrions and a few other pending matters, which he still needed to finish.
Orion then turned his head to greet the others beside them out of respect.
Suddenly, a burst of cute laughter resounded alongside a soft, high-pitched voice that scread, "Papa! Papa!!"
Orion looked at Grace, who was in his arms, and responded, "Did you miss , sweetheart?" Though Grace had gotten a little better and even begun speaking a month ago, she was still only used to simple, short phrases.
They knew that she would have learned to communicate even earlier if it weren't for her condition.
[Author's note: No, Grace will remain his daughter.]
As Grace cutely nodded and laughed, several other footsteps abruptly sounded again.
Everyone turned their heads towards the direction of the stairs, guessing who might have also arrived.
Suddenly, Queen Selene ca into view alongside Maya, Elysia, and Madam Seraphina beside her.
anwhile, Iris and two other Crystalforge clan mbers who had beco Aerialia's apostles stood guard behind them.
Noticing her gaze, Orion nodded at her before doing the sa to the others beside her, who all responded solemnly.
"Orion," Maya imdiately ran towards him and wrapped her arms around him.
She then kissed him before letting go of the others behind her to et the rest of her sisters.
Madam Seraphina and Elysia all did the sa thing.
"I thought we were going to be late. Fortunately, we have arrived on ti," Queen Selene said.
Orion nodded in response, "Yes, you are all on ti. However, my only hope is that they all make it out successfully," Orion responded.
Queen Selene shook her head in response, "Don't worry, I am sure that they would; after all, they are all strong won," Queen Selene responded as she looked at Orion with a warm smile.
Orion nodded with a sigh escaping his lips, "Yeah, they've also told the sa thing," Orion said with a smile as he turned to look at Crystalia, Saria, and the others who were discussing with each other before his attention shifted back towards Queen Selene.
"How is the King doing?" Orion asked with a solemn expression.
Queen Selene's expression suddenly deflated with a lost gaze as her eyes fell towards the wooden floor.
"Although so of the helpers we've called for from the village were helpful, it did not but slowly halted his death. Since there is no way that we can permanently reverse the effects of the artefact, he has refused to receive the treatnt of any healer we have brought and is rely waiting for his death right now," Queen Selene responded as she raised her head.
