New Life, New Task: I'll Be A Mom Then!!!

When Eli heard the name, her body froze and a wave of goosebumps filled her entire body. Hearing it from Kayden she could not help but conclude that everything has been orchestrated so wonderfully.

Everything fell into place.

"What's the matter, sister?" Kayden noticed the heavy emotions from Eli and could not help but worriedly ask.

In the end, Eli placed the journal in his hands and let him read everything.

She gave Kayden some space because she knew that the matter is connected to his father. Truly, the two of them might have been destined as siblings in one way or another.

With the donor of the DNA being the adopted father of Cornelius, who is Kayden's father, and most possibly, Kayden's mother as the most likely surrogate mother, Eli and Kayden's connection felt much more deeper and complex than natural siblings.

She gave him an encouraging pat on the shoulders, as she stood up to give him space. While he was reading the journal's contents, she moved to operate the laptop according to the instructions left by Ellyseus.

She rummaged through her pouch and found a supreme-grade mana crystal with lightning attributes. Examining the laptop, she found the small array on its side and placed the crystal near it.

Voila! The indicator light lit up as soon as she placed it near the array.

"It works like a wireless charger… how amazing." Eli was intrigued.

How meticulous was Elysseus on his requirements that the Great One in the heavenly realm thought of this way to enable these electronics to work perfectly in a world like Prasinos?

While she was letting the laptop charge for some time. She started to organize everything according to the journal's information. She was no longer in a hurry to open the contents of the laptop because she knew that they weren't needed yet.

According to Ellyseus, most information about the artificial conception of the asanis was in there. Her and Little Han being alive meant that Cornelius had been successful on the matter that his adopted father failed to finish.

To her, it was no longer her who should continue the legacy, but Kayden. Whether Kayden would start the continuation of Ellyseus and Cornelius's legacy is completely in his hands.

All she can do right now is to find clues as to what information did the Spectre get that made them aggressive in attacking the Asanis.

According to the journal, the asani DNA is very mysterious. Once it was melded to the Seirende DNA, the result would not be a 50/50 proportion of each DNA, but a completely impossible 100/100%.

Could this be the reason why the Spectre wanted the asani's? Are they thinking that if the asani DNA is combined with Birsha's it will also do the same?

If that's the case, are they thinking that once it will become successful, then they would have a way to create and cultivate a body perfect to host Birsha's spirit?

"We need to get more information to prove that this is really the case…" Eli muttered silently.

While her gut feeling was strong about this, they cannot present this to the Emperor, the GrandMaster and the High Priest without enough evidence. Especially if they will eventually find out that the Pope is involved.

They need evidence strong enough to incriminate the people involved, no matter how high their status was.

Thinking about it, Eli immersed herself in the investigation. After some time, Kayden with reddened eyes joined the suit.

"How are you feeling, brother?" Eli looked at him. She had called Kayden brother countless times before but now only the two of them know that it has a different meaning.

Both of them now knew that the body which Eli was living into was not only meant for Elise, but for Eli as well.

Just like Cornelius, this body is destined to host two souls in its lifetime. Thus, the body is completely owned by the two, regardless of who occupied it first.

Kayden trembled as he heard the way Eli addressed him. Just like Eli, he also felt the weight of this word in their lives. They were siblings, though through unnatural means, it is undeniable and legitimate.

"I still feel unwell and overwhelmed. I'm sure you do too. It may take time for us to move on but we still need to carry on. Especially now that we know more than before." Kayden patted his sister's head, his voice still quivering, obviously stopping himself to cry once again.

"We can do this… brother." Eli also teared up and gave Kayden an assuring hug.

"Y-yes… we can do this… for father… for the asanis." When Kadyen felt Eli's embrace, the sturdy dam in his eyes broke once more. He never knew that he needed this embrace so much that he was not able to stop letting out his vulnerabilities.

It was a comforting release. Something that he never thought he needed ever since he heard the news of his parents' disappearance and Elise's death.

He never knew that he had been bottling up so much, and carrying so much burden on his shoulders. All he knew was he immersed himself in so much work that he could forget it all while also helping other people through his abilities.

But for the first time in his life, his mind became clear. The very reason he was working was that someone ahead of him aimed for this very moment.

There's a reason why he went through all the hardships and heartache.

It made him strong, mature and capable enough until the time he knew the truth.

Now a new task is given to him, but he did not feel scared at all, because he knew that he is equipped and ready to continue his father and adoptive grandfather's legacy.

After letting themselves calm down, the siblings started to gather the most essential information needed at the moment - the evidence of Asani's peculiarities that possibly made the Spectres interested in their bodies.

"I have already found the way to exit the place, however, we need to strengthen the security of this dimension, just in case the possessor of the two rings will be able to also circumvent the rules of here and infiltrate.

We will also move silently to ensure that no one from the enemy's side will become suspicious that we are up to something." Kayden suggested to which Eli also agreed.

It took them about two weeks to finish their task of gathering enough information about the asanis and strengthening the security of the dimension.

Finally, after more than two weeks of being inside the seclusive laboratory, Eli and Kayden stepped out of the dimension and saw the bright skies.

Eli let the warm light of the morning bathe her skin, which has become pale because of being unable to see the sunshine for a long period of time.

"Dr. Einz! Lady Eli! Oh, thank heavens you have returned safely!" The knight who was with them during the visitation to the asani's grave.

"Sir Bernard…" Kayden and Eli nodded and warmly acknowledged the knight's presence.

"Thank heavens... Thank heavens! Come quickly Dr. Einz and Milady… we retained the camp to wait for you... We knew that you would come back…" The knight was tearful and full of relief, but he did not forget to quickly let the two come to the camp to rest.

After a while, Eli and Kayden took a hot cooked meal after two weeks of eating dry rations. The two visibly lost weight so much that the knights felt heartache for the two of them. In the end, they decided to cook something light yet nutritious and filling at the same time, so that their stomach would not react repulsively.

After their breakfast was done and they were fully washed up, Bernard came back to them and asked what their plans would be.

It was Kayden who instructed, "Quickly pack the things up. For those knights who can use earth or restoration magic, quickly erase the tracks where we have camped and searched around the entire vicinity at once.

We need to deceive the enemies that we did not attempt to investigate here. After all, we are not sure if their eyes are still on this land even though they have already done something to steal the asani corpses.

Then we will depart at once as fast as we can to the nearest teleportation station. We needed to report to the Governor and the Emperor as soon as possible."

"Roger, Doctor Einz!" Bernard did not question Kayden's instructions and thought that they made sense.

While the two did not disclose what they had found in the secret dimension, it was surely something that needed to be communicated as soon as possible.

After all, he had reported that Crown Prince Ranon has already started his official visitation and that today is the time when he is supposed to meet the criminals in the Court of Sinners!
