Chapter 975: News That Was Dropped On Him Like A Bomb
"I'll be going to the front lines tomorrow," Cedric said as soon as he arrived at the house Lily's mother was renting.
Lyall nodded. "You should. It would be a shame if you don't participate in it."
"I'm glad you understand." Cedric smiled. "I came here to say goodbye and promise you that I will return."
"Awww, how sweet of you," Lyall replied before grabbing Cedric's hand and pulling him up the stairs.
"W-Wait, what are you doing?!" Cedric, who didn't understand why he was being dragged upstairs, asked.
"I'm going to give you a good luck charm." Lyall smiled evilly.
After hearing her reply, Cedric felt touched, so he no longer resisted.
A few hours later...
The young man struggled to get himself out of Lyall's room, relying on the walls to support him.
His legs felt like jelly after being drained by the crazy lady, who milked him dry.
Although they didn't go all the way since they weren't married, Cedric understood that Lyall was different from the other noble ladies that he had met in the past.
Even with his trained body, he was still defeated in the end and was even the first one to lose consciousness.
Conall, who had just arrived at the house with his mother, saw the pitiful-looking Cedric. He was visibly having difficulty walking down the stairs and was even leaning on the railings.
Just as he was about to ask the young man what happened, his exceptional sense of smell already caught a whiff of the reason.
"You should do things in moderation in the future," Conall said as he looked at Cedric with a knowing smile on his face.
"Tell that to your sister," Cedric replied.
"My sister doesn't understand the meaning of the word moderation."
"I only found that out today."
Lily's mother, Leah, did not have the superhuman senses that the Beastkins possessed.
But, she was a mother and a married woman. A glance was enough for her to understand what Cedric had been through.
Of course, she wouldn't point it out today because it might embarrass the young man. But since she was an adult, she decided to talk to Lyall about this and see what her real thoughts were about Cedric.
Half an hour later...
"Brother, what happened to you?" Lilian asked when she saw her exhausted-looking brother, who seemed to no longer have the energy to fight any wars.
"Don't ask." Cedric sighed. "Have you finished packing everything?"
"Oh? Did Conall find a lover?" Ethan asked with genuine curiosity.
"Ah, that boy? I don't think he plans to settle down anytime soon," Seff replied.
"Then, is it Lyall?" Ethan almost broke out in sweat and even offered a silent prayer to the person who must have been kicked in the head by a donkey and thus ended up hooking up with
the crazy lady.
"Lyall?" Seff scoffed. "I wish."
"Then, did her brothers and sisters happen to have a child?"
"Hmm? What are you talking about? Of course I'm talking about your child."
Ethan blinked once then twice as he looked at the Beast King, who was smiling at him.
"My child?" Ethan asked. "What child?"
"... You didn't know?" Seff, who thought that Ethan was just playing a prank on him earlier, finally realized that the young man wasn't aware that Lily was pregnant.
Ethan's body then stiffened when he thought about a possibility. However, this possibility
was something that he never thought was possible.
"Lily is pregnant?" Ethan looked at his father-in-law in shock.
Seff nodded. "She is. She only learned about it a few weeks ago."
Ethan's brain seemed to have short-circuited as he stood in place in a daze.
Illumina, who heard this news, was also surprised.
Princess Wilhelmina and Princess Ariel, who were paying close attention to the discussion,
were also shocked.
Ethan was the Prince of Atlantis and was currently the Pillar of the Ocean Races.
If he really was about to have a Father, this was definitely big news!
Sebastian and Ethan's Other Half were also shocked silly and wondered if the Beast King was
playing a prank on Ethan.
However, after seeing how serious Seff's expression was, they knew then and there that he
wasn't lying.
Ethan's mouth opened and closed like a fish who had been tossed on land as his mind tried to register the sudden news that was dropped on him like a bomb.
