Chapter 525: You've Gotten Clumsier
-----
I quickly flew into the kitchen and began to grab ingredients from everywhere. I wanted to make pancakes with fruit jam and cream for breakfast as the pain plate. Of course, I was also going to make toasts. I also decided to boil some milk for Belle, who likes warm milk.
After getting everything ready, I surprised everyone with a breakfast in bed, while also serving Belle.
"Ahh! Pancakes with fruit jam! And cream!" she said happily, beginning to devour everything. She really liked to eat this but I haven't done them in a long while.
"I love breakfast in bed! Hehe…" Benladann giggled happily, she was very happy of being spoiled rotten by me.
"You've really grown spoiled! There's no day I don't see you smile happily as Drake does everything for you!" said Miranda.
"Yeah, isn't her smile beautiful? I am happy to see her smile every day… After all the things she had gone through… I think I am fine with doing these things if I can see her smile every day, she's my sun." I said.
"A-Ah… I see… I-I guess I shouldn't had pointed it out, you're right…" said Miranda.
"Y-You really think those things, Drake?" asked Benladann.
"Huh? Ah… Did I said all that stuff casually?! It just came out of me…." I sighed.
"But yeah, I think that every day…" I said, as I sat at her side.
"Drake… You're such a sweetheart… So you always want to make me happy? Every day?" asked Benladann.
"Of course… Why wouldn't I? It doesn't bother me to cook, it is something I enjoy doing at this point… Serving you delicious food, seeing you eat what I made with love for you, and then seeing you smile… it's all I need, honestly." I said.
"Ahhh… I love you so much!" she cried, as she hugged me tightly.
"B-Benladann, wait, the tea is going to spill!" I cried, as I shot an ice ray into the cup of tea and stopped it midway through from falling, instantly becoming a frozen cup of tea, at least it didn't fell and spiled all around.
"O-Oh, sorry… I've gotten clumsier since I got pregnant…" she sighed.
"It must be because your body is always exhausted… The baby is always consuming your energy, so you feel innately dizzier and perhaps that's why you laugh so much too." I said.
I wasn't going to tell her she was getting dummier or something, so I softened the bullet. But the thing, is as she's pregnant, our baby is always making her feel tired and exhausted, and sometime sleepy all the time.
People that is exhausted and sleepy are often clumsier, of course, and often don't have all their neurons working properly, but I do remember that she had always been a sweetie and cute wife, even before getting pregnant, perhaps she was sometimes more stoic, but outside of battle or serious themes, she had softened so much with me that she's completely different with me than with others.
I suppose I am the same, with her I am an extremely loving husband to the point I love to spoil and serve her… but outside of this, I am rather domineering and expressionless at times. Well, sometimes. And I like to be served, not to serve… But Benladann is of course different, she's my beloved little wife, so I must bring her all the happiness I can.
If I see her happy, I am happy too, and I feel a bliss all over my heart.
It makes me so happy to think that she went through so much suffering before but now she's very happy and having a relaxing life despite all the shit she went through… I feel like I must reward her for having been so strong to endure all of this, and see her smile is a bliss, a true bliss in my life.
"Oohh, so that's why I feel sleepy…" said Benladann with a cute smile.
"Yeah, you rest for now, Benladann, you're still waiting for the baby, it is getting pretty big already though." Said Miranda, gently petting her baby belly.
"Well, I am still going to connect my mind with yours for tomorrow's raid, got it? I will bring forth my Chaos Magic while you take care of the Mold Magic! We'll be the perfect tag team in a single body!" said Benladann.
"Hahaha… Alright, but don't overexert yourself, at least we got a lot of Mana to use." Said Miranda.
"Yeah! I can drink more mana potions in here while you are in there too, super-efficient!" said Benladann.
"I guess there's that cheat! I didn't realized it earlier, but I guess we can indeed do that, wow…" said Miranda in surprise.
"Wait! Did you just realized that, Miranda? There's no way… Oh well, the thing is, we are doing our best, okay?" asked Benladann.
"Sure, sis." Said Miranda.
"Ohh, it has been some time since you called me sis!" said Benladann.
"Well, that's because we are indeed sisters! Right?" asked Miranda.
"Hehe, yeah…" giggled Benladann.
"I guess you two have grown super close, huh? I am glad." I said.
"A-Ah! We were not ignoring you or something, dearie…" said Benladann.
"Oh? It doesn't matter, don't worry about me." I laughed.
"Hehe, you're really a handful, aren't you?" asked Miranda.
"A handful?" I asked.
"You really enjoy having us both here…" said Miranda.
"I-I… well, I do, having such cute twins is like a dream come true!" I laughed.
"Twins! Right, I guess we could play it off like that!" said Benladann.
"But we don't resemble at all…" said Miranda.
"But can't you shapeshift to anything you want anyways? Have you tried changing race to look like an ice giant?" asked Benladann.
"I… Well, I can…" said Miranda, as she suddenly shapeshifted, her skin turned pale blue, and her size grew almost to two meters and around 30 to 40 centimeters. She was smaller than us at three meters, but she was definitely way bigger now…
"H-How is it?" she asked timidly.
