Chapter 1573 A Cute Little Chaos Dragon
-----
The next morning, unexpectedly so, little Drakda had become rather active. He was no longer just cuddling with his mother; he started crawling around rather energetically. He couldn't walk nor fly yet, but he already had developed very sharp claws. And he was using them to explore our entire bedroom.
"Guh… Bubah…" He was making adorable sounds as his sharp red eyes looked around curiously.
"Drakda, dear, come back to mommy already! You shouldn't be crawling around yet!" Miranda was trying to catch him, but he was quite quick, starting to climb the walls and ceiling like a gecko.
"Guuhh…" He gave another cute sound as he looked down on us from the ceiling.
"He's really energetic today! He was just born yesterday but it feels like he can already take care of himself." Benladann giggled. "I remember that Benladra was the complete opposite! She was such a mommy's girl, always stuck with me for weeks after being born. She finally started exploring and flying long after."
"Yeah she was quite a shy little baby." I nodded, recalling when my little princess was even younger than now.
"Mom, dad, don't say that! I-It's embarrassing…" Benladra blushed a bit, feeling embarrassed we recalled when she was a baby. "I'm not baby anymore! I'm big dragon girl now!"
"You're still fairly young." I laughed. "You're only five years of age."
"I'm almost six, actually!" She pouted. "Kate is smallest, she's baby!"
"I'm three…" Kate said, looking up and seeing her little brother crawling. She flew up towards him and gently grabbed him.
"Aeeh… Gugahh…" Drakda gave cute noises but didn't fight back either, he seemed lost on the silver-colored eyes of his older sister.
"Drakda, don't be mischievous, and stay with your mom, okay?" Kate asked, giving him a kiss on his forehead.
"Guuhh…" Drakda seemed to have little reaction, but then gave a cute giggle.
"Well, looks like he might have been captivated by his cute big sister!" Miranda smiled. "Thank you for bringing it back to me, Kate." She quickly held Drakda on her arms. The boy was done exploring for today, happily cuddling on Miranda's arms with an innocent smile, and then dozing off while drinking milk.
"No problem auntie." Kate smiled cutely, as Miranda gave her head pats and then a kiss on her little nose.
"You're so cute Kate~" She hugged her.
"Hm." Kate only accepted the head pats without saying any other words.
I quickly brought along the table with breakfast for my Miranda. I had just finished cooking it and the feast was quickly assembled around her. This time there was also lots of Chaotic Beasts and Demonic Beasts meat too. Which they were able to consume already quite well.
"Chaotic Beast meat will help you recover your vitality faster, and also your Chaotic Energies." I explained. "Make sure to eat it all. And well, the Demonic Beast meat is so you can further produce a stronger resistance against the damage from demons."
"Gotcha honey, you don't need to explain it to me every time~" Miranda was getting a bit cocky because I was spoiling her a lot. "Nom, hmm…! It's good. You're a good hubby, very serviceable, ten out of ten."
"Oh, is that so? Hahah!" I felt slightly happy to hear that.
"Yes, so stay with me all day." She smiled, looking into my eyes with her sharp gaze.
"A-Ah, well, sure… I was planning to…" I muttered.
"No plans! You have a baby here so stay with me." She demanded.
"Yes ma'am…" I nodded.
I couldn't really get mad at her. I knew she was getting cocky, but it was honestly justified. She just gave birth to our son, so it was the minimum that I stayed along. She would perhaps need to rest with little Drakda for a week. So I'll be staying with her and spoil her as much as I can. She's the mother of my son after all, I can't give her anything less but all my love and attention. And of course, to little Drakda as well.
"Well, if Drake's going to stay with you, I suppose we should not waste time. We'll be going to the Chaos Dragon Realm once we eat breakfast." Benladann said. "I'm getting slowly ready for Skadi's Trial, but I think I need some more power."
"Well, most of your powers will be taken away once you enter, but maybe if you strengthen your soul… Yeah, it could make you stronger." I nodded. "Benladra is going too?"
"Yep!" Benladra nodded. "I am slowly getting the hang of it! Maybe I'll soon be able to transform into my Chaos Dragon appearance!"
"Good girl, keep working hard then." I smiled, giving her a kiss in her forehead. "Then you'll stick around with papa today, Kate?"
"No, I'm going to the System's Digital Realm today. We're slaying as many Glitches as possible with mama. She has become stronger now thanks to this." Kate said. "Sorry papa."
"Ahhh, it's fine." I nodded. "System, make sure to take good care of her."
"Of course… And sorry for taking her away from you." She apologized. "She insisted on continuing the internal cleansing of my inner Systems."
"It is so mama can feel better and regain her strength completely." Kate said to her mommy. "I want mama to be able to materialize one day! I think it can be possible if I fully heal you."
"Is that so? Maybe…" She wondered. "Well, thank you nonetheless, Kate. I am so lucky to have such a wonderful little daughter, you're my everything." Her ghostly form hugged Kate, giving her kisses.
"I love you mama." Kate hugged her back, even though both couldn't feel one another.
"I love you too my dearest." Her mother smiled.
This was definitely melting my heart right now…
Once we finished breakfast and everyone went to do their own things, I sat besides Miranda and chatted with her about anything she wanted to.
There were a lot of topics about many things, so we never got bored. If there was a big difference from Benladann, is that Miranda was really, really chatty.
Nonetheless, she got tired and ended falling asleep, asking me to cuddle with her on bed while our little son was between the two of us.
Without realizing, I also fell asleep while hugging them.
