Chapter 500: Heartwarming Morning
-----
[Day 194]
Yesterday once more felt like an eternity, but now we can finally relax a bit and- Ah, right I must plunder the sect's graveyard and then go to the Dark Shadow Sect and wreck them.
But for now, I decided to spend the day leisurely, and then go deal with that at night.
Now that the deal with the Dungeon was done for, there was not much for me to enjoy in that little sect, and although I kind of started caring about the people there, not really as much as my own people.
When I woke up, I found Benladann sleeping over the bed, her belly was popping above the bedsheets.
So cute…
I approached her and kissed her belly; it was very warm.
Ice giants are resistant immune to cold temperature and resistant to ice, but they also produce heat as mammals.
As an ice dragon, I didn't originally produced heat as I am a cold-blooded lizard.
But after eating a bunch of creatures I learned my way to warm my blood, so Benladann doesn't have to sleep with a giant block of ice at her side.
We warm each other quite well.
And her warm belly was the cutest.
I caressed it gently and I heard the heartbeat of our baby.
It was so little but very energetic.
It felt so filled with life.
It made me smile a bit.
Hahh… this is so relaxing.
I never thought I would experience so many things like these when I found myself reincarnated as an Ice Dragon from all things.
I guess life is more than just hunting monsters and trying to survive the next day.
After all, it is all about living life to the fullest, battling is not really living life to the fullest, but it is a way to achieve dreams or protects what you love.
Eh, I've never been a battle junkie anyways, so this life is fitting.
But for the sake of this little baby… I have to fight.
Benladann woke up after what I was doing to her belly.
"Huh? Baby what are you doing?" she wondered.
"E-Eh? I-I was… just caressing and kissing the belly." I said.
"Oh?" she sat down and kissed me.
"Hehe, you're so cute sometimes." She said with a cute smile.
"You're cute too." I said.
"Uwah… We really made a mess last night… Wanna go take a bath together?" she asked.
"Alright, let's go." I said.
I left a slime clone changing the bedsheets while we moved to the bathroom and took a warm bath. We cleansed each other's bodies and I made sure to clean her private parts as well.
After that, we flew back to our room and got ourselves in some good clothes. We enjoyed a breakfast after that.
Today's breakfast was going to be lots of sweets, because Benladann has a very sweet tooth lately, probably her body needs a lot of sugars for the baby?
I even used Cooking Magic and made her an amazing fruit pie, which she found amazing.
Heh, I am becoming a pretty good chef.
I should just open a wandering Restaurant and sell food to people.
Damn, that would be such a nice way to live…
Maybe? I mean, why the fuck not? I can do whatever I want!
Hmm… Though for that dream I would have to prepare myself to cook good food for my customers.
And also prepare a good place for the people to enter and eat.
Perhaps a good place inside of Fuyu…
But wouldn't receive people reveal our identity and also the flying castle's appearance?
So I would need to do a few things…
Maybe putting a teleportation trap somewhere and letting that place become the entrance, so they never know how my place really looks outside…
Hmm…
Oh well, for now I should concentrate in my current plans.
"Drake, dearie, this is way too good! Can you make another for dinner?" she asked while eating the last piece.
"Haha, sure! I am glad you liked it, you devoured it all." I laughed.
"Whatever you make is always so good! I swear… I am going to get so fat… I will have to workout a lot after giving birth to the baby…" she laughed.
"Haha! Don't worry, your father also spoiled me a lot when I was pregnant." Laughed Benlah, Benladann's mother.
"Yeah, she got a rather fat. But I liked that… Although at the end she got fit again because she likes to go hunt a lot." said Laddan, Benladann's father.
"I will have to workout a lot too…" sighed Benladann.
"I just went to hunt, and it slowly went away, by doing the daily routine it should be more than enough, dear." Said Benladann's mother.
"I see! Well we got a lot of dungeons to choose from now, so we I can go there after giving birth and just demolish monsters." Said Benladann.
"Yeah, but what about the baby? You're not going to leave it to me or something, right?" asked Miranda.
"Ah, no… Sorry if you thought that, Miranda!" said Benladann.
"Eeeh… Ah, it's fine, you're way too gentle, don't apologize for everything." Said Miranda.
"We'll raise the baby together into a fine man… or woman." I said.
"Hehe, yeah I wonder what's gonna be!" said Benladann while smiling and caressing her belly.
I could just ask the System, but I really want it to be a surprise, so until that time, I don't want to ask the System, which is capable of easily discerning the gender now that it had grown a lot.
What I know is that it is indeed half-dragon though.
"I've never seen a half-dragon baby before, I think you're making history here, the memories of my creator, the Dream Fox Venerable, doesn't say anything about something like this… So you're pretty much creating a new race." Said Belle.
"I-Is that so? Hehe… I hope he or she can grow strong and happy." Said Benladann.
"Yeah, we'll make sure of that." I said.
