Path To Godhood Begins With Marrying Wife And Gaining SSS Rank Skill

Chapter 657: 657:Birth Of New Offspring

Far away from the battlefield, life inside the Blank Estate continued under a heavy atmosphere while everyone quietly carried on with their daily routines. Although the mansion remained peaceful on the surface, fear and worry had already settled into the hearts of many people living there because no one knew what was happening on the distant battlefield where Ethan and countless others were risking their lives.

News arrived very slowly.

The roads leading toward the front lines were tightly controlled, and it was extremely difficult for ordinary people to pass through the military checkpoints.

It was not that they lacked the ability to break through.Rather, they simply did not want to.

The Emperor was like a hungry tiger watching everything from the shadows. The slightest suspicious movement could easily attract unwanted attention, and nobody wanted to take such a risk while the entire Empire was at war.

Inside one of the quiet rooms of the mansion, Sophia sat beside a window while gently holding a warm cup of tea in both hands. The soft fragrance drifted through the room while Miranda sat nearby with a flute resting across her lap.

The two women quietly enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere for a while.

Finally, Sophia broke the silence.

”Hey.”

”Tell me.”

”When do you think this war will be over?”

Miranda looked up before giving a helpless smile.

”How would I know, Mother?”

After answering, she slowly lifted the flute and began playing a gentle melody.

The quiet music filled the room and eased some of the tension hanging in the air.

Sophia listened for a while before slowly shaking her head.

”I don’t know where you learned this.”

”But this whole situation is giving me dangerous vibes.”

Miranda’s fingers continued moving across the instrument.

”I would be damned if it didn’t.”

A faint smile appeared on her face.

Sophia looked at her for several moments before another thought suddenly entered her mind.

”When are you going to get married?”

The unexpected question immediately made Miranda choke.

She lowered the flute and looked at Sophia with a small pout.”I am still so young.”

”So why are you in such a hurry?”

Sophia’s lips twitched.

”You are young?”

”You are already forty.”

”By the time I was your age, your father and I were already taking care of several children.”

Miranda blinked before quietly thinking for a moment.

Then she shrugged.”It’s not that I don’t want to get married.”

”I just need to find the right person.”

”I can’t pick some random man from the streets, can I?”

Sophia let out a tired sigh.

”Well...”

”That is true too.”

The mother and daughter continued chatting while occasionally sipping tea and enjoying the peaceful morning together.

For a brief moment, the worries brought by the war seemed to fade away.

Suddenly...

BANG!

A loud sound echoed throughout the mansion.

The unexpected noise instantly broke the calm atmosphere.

Both women turned toward the direction where it came from and saw servants hurrying their way.

Sophia immediately stood up from her seat while setting her teacup onto the table.

Her expression changed.”I think someone’s water might have broken.”

”It’s time to go and take a look.”

Without wasting another second, she quickly walked toward the door while Miranda hurriedly stood up and followed right behind her.

Sophia and Miranda hurried through the long corridors of the Blank Estate while several maids and servants rushed in the same direction with anxious expressions. The atmosphere had suddenly become lively as hurried footsteps echoed across the mansion and people carried towels, warm water, clean blankets, and medicine into the emergency ward.

The moment Sophia stepped inside, she found the room already filled with activity.

Several experienced healers stood around the beds while carefully giving instructions to the assistants nearby. A few maids wiped the sweat from the mothers’ foreheads while others quietly encouraged them to stay strong.

The room was filled with tension.

Occasionally, painful cries echoed through the air before gradually fading.

Sophia immediately walked toward one of the women and gently held her hand.

”Take a deep breath.”

”Everything will be alright.”

The woman nodded weakly while trying to calm herself.

Miranda also moved around the room and helped wherever she could. Although she was not an expert in childbirth, she still assisted by bringing clean cloth and fresh water whenever someone asked for it.

Time slowly passed.

Everyone waited nervously.

Then...

A loud cry suddenly echoed throughout the room.

”Waaah!”

For a brief moment, complete silence followed.

Soon after, one of the healers looked up with a relieved smile.

”The baby is healthy.”

The announcement immediately brought smiles to many faces.

Sophia let out a breath she did not realize she had been holding.

Several servants quietly congratulated the exhausted mother while carefully wrapping the newborn child inside a warm blanket.

However, the work was not over yet.

Another woman was still in labor.

The healers quickly moved toward the next bed while giving calm instructions.

After several more difficult moments...

Another loud cry filled the room.

”Waaah!”

A second child had safely entered the world.

The tense atmosphere immediately became much lighter.

Even the servants who had remained nervous until now could not hide their smiles.

Rina hurried her away and arriving gently looked at the two newborn children resting in the arms of the healers while warmth slowly appeared across her face.

”The mansion has welcomed another set of siblings.”

Her quiet words made several nearby maids smile even brighter.

One elderly healer nodded with satisfaction.

”Both mothers are safe.”

”Both children are healthy.”

”It couldn’t have gone much better.”

Miranda stepped closer and carefully looked at the tiny babies sleeping peacefully without understanding the excitement surrounding them.

A soft smile appeared on her lips.

”They really are small.”

Sophia chuckled quietly.

”They will not stay this small for long.”

Outside the room, the news quickly spread throughout the Blank Estate.

The worried atmosphere caused by the distant war eased slightly as servants happily informed one another that new lives had safely entered the household.

For a brief moment, despite the chaos raging far away on the battlefield, joy quietly returned to the mansion as the Blank Estate welcomed its newest family members.
