Chapter 349
349 Giving Birth
Selma Payne’s POV:
Logically, all the cultural relics collected by the witch clan had been filed and sealed. I didn’t have a deep impression of the slate, but when I saw the one in front of me, which was the same as the one before, I suddenly thought of it.
How could Leviathan have such a thing? The eye pattern on the stone slab belonged to the totem of Azazel. As for the other thirteen flowers, it had not been determined yet. It could not possibly belong to the sea demon, Leviathan. There was no connection at all.
In short, I asked Master Mary to bring the stone slab with her when she came. Out of some intuition, I also asked her to bring the twelve headscarves.
Sure enough, the two slates were the same except for some handcrafted details. The grooves and protrusions on the back could even match each other and be put together into a whole piece. After putting them together, the patterns on the edges of the two stone slabs could also be perfectly matched together, as if layers of thorns were intertwined.
The werewolf grandmasters could not find any records related to these thirteen flower patterns, and even some of the gods of nature or flowers could not match them. Combined with the twelve cloaks, it seemed that everything was Mullwica’s handiwork. Maybe she liked flowers?
What a joke. Of course, things weren’t that simple. We didn’t come to any conclusions, but we reached a consensus on the danger of the slates. No one believed that the two stones were as ordinary as they looked on the surface. They were closely related to the two great demons, which was worth being careful with.
In the end, they were sealed in the Moon Palace, using the goddess’ power to suppress all possible accidents.
As the expected date of delivery got closer and closer, my fatigue and anxiety also increased day by day. I often fell asleep while Emma was reading documents. She didn’t dare to wake me up, so she could only waste time on me.
She hadn’t been home much recently because she had a big fight with her parents. She didn’t elaborate on the details, but there must be an irreconcilable conflict between her independence and the control of her family. For this reason, I support her temporarily breaking up with her family. For her freedom in the future, she must not retreat. Once she was controlled once, it would be difficult for her to turn things around in the future.
This was the truth that I came to after knowing countless officials and their children.
On a hot summer night, I suddenly felt pain in my abdomen, as if something was falling and trying to leave my body. The medical team that was on standby day and night immediately took over caring for me. I was sent to a special sterile isolation ward to wait for the delivery.
My parents put down their administrative duties and anxiously waited outside the ward. Aldrich was ‘fully armed’ by my side. I laughed at how comical it was for him to act as if he was facing a great enemy, but he only gave me a tolerant smile and gently wiped away the cold sweat on my forehead.
Finally, that moment had arrived.
A tearing pain came from my lower body, and I couldn’t help but scream. My rapid breathing made me choke and cough... this was so painful, more painful than all the injuries I had suffered before combined!
Aldrich also seemed panicking, but he knew he was useless in the ward, so he could only constantly cheer me on. I couldn’t spare any energy to respond to him. I just wanted to get that tormenting little b*stard out of my body as soon as possible ...
“BOOM!”
Suddenly, a deafening explosion sounded, and the building shook violently. I was almost shaken to the ground. Fortunately, Aldrich protected me in time. The medical staff members were thrown off their feet, and some were injured by the equipment they had flipped over.
“What happened?” Aldrich shouted at the top of his voice.
“An unknown enemy has attacked us. I’ll handle this. You protect Selma!” My father’s voice came very quickly.
I was already suffering from the pain of childbirth, and I almost fainted from the shaking. Hearing my father’s angry roar, I subconsciously asked, “An enemy attack? Who is it? Evil demons or wanderers?”
“Let’s not worry about the outside for now,” Aldrich said softly. “You are the most important right now. I will go outside and look after you give birth safely.”
“No, no, you go now.” I struggled to push Aldrich away. I had a feeling that this was not that simple. It was not a coincidence that they attacked me on the day I gave birth. “They must have taken advantage of the fact that the palace was now focused on me. Moreover, the royal family has not announced the expected delivery date to the public, so they might have spies in the palace. You’ve been through hundreds of battles and are very experienced. Hurry and help Father.”
However, Aldrich stubbornly held my hand and stayed by my side. “No, my mission now is to accompany you and protect you. Nothing is more important than you.”
“Aldrich!” I felt another wave of pain as I howled in pain and anger. I hated my husband for not being able to live up to his expectations.
As expected of a top-notch professional team, the medical staff, who were in a mess, quickly regained their order and continued to help me in the labor in an orderly manner as if nothing had happened in the outside world.
“As you can see, there are so many professionals around me,” I said, panting. “They’ll take good care of me, so go and help Father now. You don’t want me and the baby to be in danger, do you? Then hurry up and bring those criminals to justice!”
