Chapter 312 - 271: Lynn’s Family, Part 2
Right now, it’s really uncertain when the wedding will happen because he’s about to go to battle.
Unless he can marry before heading to the Divine Protection Continent, otherwise the plan would be "after this battle, I’ll go back home and get married...".
This is a world with gods, sometimes it’s necessary to believe in a little magic...
So, marriage should be discussed after the battle, it’s not going to take long anyway, just some defeated remnants to chase away, how could they delay him for long?
"Then now... should we start preparing for a baby?"
Vivian was still a bit hesitant, Lynn’s timing was uncertain, humans only gestate for ten months, what if this battle lasts a year or longer...
"No rush, no rush, let’s see what fate has in store. If it really happens, I’ll speed things up to crush the Demon Race! At most, we’ll marry because of the baby, but I won’t let our child be illegitimate."
Seeing Vivian still a bit worried, Lynn tried to reassure her as much as possible; he certainly won’t let his wife or child be wronged.
"Oh, that’s good."
Vivian trusted Lynn completely. Since he said so, he’d definitely achieve it. There’s nothing that can truly trouble Lynn in this world. Even if she accidentally got pregnant tonight, Lynn would destroy the Demon Race in three to five months to ensure the wedding date isn’t missed.
"Actually... I wouldn’t mind. If possible, I’d love to have a child soon. Whether or not there is a wedding, it’s the child of me and Lynn, Miracle Saint Emperor, born to be the Crown Prince. Who can argue that they’re not legitimate?"
Helena spoke with absolute authority, the real demeanor of an Empress. As she said, if the child is Lynn’s, whether or not there’s a marriage can’t affect the child’s legitimacy as Crown Prince. No one would dare challenge this.
"Alright, I was actually here to share good news. Why are we suddenly talking about the future? Let’s complete the current tasks first, there’s plenty of time for marriage and babies in the long run."
Saying this, Lynn led the whole lively household up the Holy Mountain of Light. This big group of women, children, and cats were guests from afar, so the Light Empire and the Light Church Court were supposed to host them well.
Especially since among them was His Majesty the Emperor of one of the Eight Great Empires; typically, the Emperor of the Celestial Destiny Empire visiting in person means that the Emperor of the Light Empire and the Pope of the Light Church Court would personally host them, but compared to Helena’s status as Celestial Mandate Empress, the Miracle Empress was clearly more important.
So, it was a family reunion, diplomatic matters on the sidelines for now, as not to disturb the Miracle Saint Emperor and his family.
Fortunately, the temporary palace arranged by the Light Church Court for Lynn was the best among the half of the Holy Mountain, with more than one master bedroom; although a huge group of them arrived, accommodations were still set.
Though they didn’t suffer boat and cart fatigue, the long travel was tiring, especially for the two kids and two cats.
Once inside the palace, Guji barely finished half a bowl of cat food before yawning and crawling into the cat bed Vivian brought, while Flower had no appetite at all, just nibbling on a small fish before curling up with Guji, leaving Catherine’s cat bed effort futile.
Yet, it was good; the weather started to chill, cuddling with Guji was warmer, its fatty body wasn’t grown in vain.
"Just now Akelie and the others saw our family together, so they didn’t come to disturb, but surely the banquet is ready ahead of time, are you hungry? Do you want to go now?"
After settling the cats, Lynn woke up Natasha and gathered his wife and kids to ask if they wanted to attend the banquet.
"Let’s skip it, I’m not very fond of official stuff."
Catherine was the first to refuse, even though her mother’s surname was Windsor, she had connections with both the Light Empire and the Light Church Court, but if she wanted a dignified life as Light nobility, she wouldn’t travel miles to the Celestial Destiny Empire as a warrior mentor.
"I... I don’t want to go either. I don’t know anyone here..."
Vivian wasn’t shy nor afraid of strangers, but in a totally unfamiliar environment, she preferred to stay with familiar people rather than go through formalities.
"Neither of us want to go; too many people makes us feel uncomfortable. But we heard Aunt Cleia is also a mom now, should we bring her over too?"
This was said by Little Youli and Little Yuna, Little Youli voiced disinterest in the banquet and Little Yuna suggested inviting another mom.
In such a situation, Lynn’s and Helena’s and Natasha’s close partners opinions didn’t matter once there were already four votes against it.
"Natasha, you know your way around, can you ask the kitchen to prepare a table for us separately and delivered here? I’ll go find Cleia and bring her here."
Lynn respected the opinion of his wife and kids and acted accordingly.
Upon receiving orders, Natasha briskly left, Dragon Race’s physical strength and recovery ability were indeed strong, a short nap revived them greatly.
Meanwhile, Lynn hurried to find Cleia, notifying them the banquet could start, it’s just their family wouldn’t attend.
After Lynn and Natasha left, even after some time, Natasha returned with the ordered dishes, yet Lynn was still nowhere to be found.
Was it really that hard to invite just Cleia over?
She’s a cold beauty who doesn’t socialize with men much, but Lynn’s technically her fiancé, surely he could move her.
"Should I go and check?"
Although they didn’t mind waiting longer, but it wasn’t right to let the kids hunger.
Thus, Catherine volunteered, she was the most familiar with the Light Church Court among them, so it was suitable for her to check.
Seeing Catherine took the task, Vivian and Helena certainly had no objections, even Little Youli and Little Yuna wanted to go urging dad back.
However, just imagining a woman in her twenties with two little kids at a large banquet looking for their dad and his other woman seemed too strange for Catherine, so she rejected the notion of flower-boy helpers.
Eventually, it was Catherine who skillfully reached the Light Church Court’s banquet locale, upon entering the hall, she understood why Lynn hadn’t returned.
Because he was surrounded by beautiful girls...
One, two, three, four, five...
Counting the expressionless Cleia within, there were seven distinctly beautiful girls practically trapping Lynn.
Sensing the setup and the perfect number, a flash of insight led Catherine to guess their identities.
Princesses of the remaining Seven Great Empires, excluding the Celestial Destiny Empire!
Of course, it’s for Lynn’s family reception gala, how could they not invite these sisters if they were in the Light Empire?
To be prepared, they are also considered part of "Lynn’s family", how could they miss it?
Especially Cleia as the dual host of Light Empire and Light Church Court must attend the banquet, appeasing the other Six Great Empires to avoid misunderstandings, surely invite them all.
