Inheriting a Lost Bloodline, My First Task is to have heirs?! Chapter 128 128 - Ioannis meets the mystique husbands 2

Ioannis looked at then looked at the huge golden tree. He then looked down to the ground and then back to my face in quick succession. He looks so confused and cute at the sa ti. He then carefully asked, "Based on the historical books, the World Tree is actually a deity, correct?" I simply nodded and confird, "My mother is also a deity. I am part deity myself. Why?" Ioannis shook his head. I then touched the body of the tree and touched Ioannis' hand. I then told him, "He's heavily injured when the last world tree realm got destroyed about four millenia ago so he is currently sleeping inside this tree. I am the only one he allows to get in so you have to et him through my eyes. Close your eyes and let's start." We closed our eyes as I let my consciousness enter the tree. My vision was then shared to Ioannis as we quietly watched the man who was sleeping in a fetal position inside the tree with a beauty that further confirms that he is a deity." I did not want to disturb his rest so we imdiately left Nische's consciousness. When I opened my eyes, I saw Ioannis staring at . With an expression that he will not take no for an answer. He said "I want to et the other four n you were on an arranged marriage with." I looked at him and tried to keep my laughter in. I almost choked but had to keep it in and replied with a curt, "Sure."

Though Ioannis was still shocked at the fact that one of our family mbers was a deity, he kept silent. He did not ask any questions which was totally unexpected for soone who found out the shocking truth that their wife has so many strings attached to her even before they t. I held his hand as we teleported back to the palace grounds then to the study room at the palace.

With his usual cold face, I can't really tell what he's feeling so I had to ask, "Do you have any questions for ?" He shook his head and replied, "I'm just absorbing all the details while trying not to pass out right now so just let be." I simply gave him so cool water to drink and with shaky hands, he drank the whole glass in one go. I then stood up and told him, "I will give you as much ti as you need to process these things and the possible changes they may bring in the future. I'll bring you to et the other four at a later ti." As I finished my sentence, he suddenly grabbed my hand tightly as I heard him shout, "NOW!" I looked back at him and he was staring at intensely. I tilted my head and looked at him. He then clarified with a firm voice, "I will not et them at a later ti. I want to et them now. Just shock with everything so I only need to recover once." I smiled at him and said, "You don't have to force yourself to accept everything imdiately. Give yourself ti to calm down and-" He then said shouted, "NO!" I sighed and looked at him helplessly. I pulled him up from his seat as we made our way up the stairs to the second to the highest floor of the palace.

After walking for about 10 minutes, we finally stopped at a huge and intricately embellished door. I looked at him and then asked, "Are you ready?" He nodded at with confidence. Does he have to make a face as if he was going to a life or death battle? I pushed the door open and saw the familiar four sleeping beauties. I carefully pulled Ioannis in and introduced him to each man. His eyes were darting to them one by one as if gauging each of them. I told him that they were from part-deity, part-mystique families just like and they will automatically hold prince titles in this kingdom. As for future concubines, they will hold duke titles or lower ranks depending on what I will assign to them or the importance I think they have for the kingdom. As for you, you're my consort. I decided not to have a king during my reign but instead a council to be fair.

As he looked at them one by one, I slowly saw a fierce conviction in his eyes. He then suddenly asked, "How long do mystiques or deities get pregnant before they give birth?" I then answered nonchalantly, "I believe it is not that long for most. Humans give birth after 9 months. The deities and mystiques can give birth at as early as 6 months. This is the shortest ti possible if the child is well-nourished by both parents with their mana and life essences. Most take a longer ti due to many factors. Dragons have the longest pregnancies though they lay an egg after 3 months, it does not co out of its shell unless the child has absorbed enough mana and life essence. If one of the parents is weaker than the other, the pregnancy will be longer unless the stronger one of the parents take responsibility in covering the missing percentage of nourishnt. Most mystique n raise their children on their own so it may even take years before the child is born. Female mystiques can abandon the n they've slept with after the pregnancy is confird with no issues. Resonance still counts here and even feelings is a huge factor. The male mystique can only continue to bear children with the woman who got them pregnant the first ti so they have to be in their good graces if they want to have more heirs. As for feelings, if the parents don't like each other, they won't be willing to nourish the child together after conception." Ioannis pondered for a while before asking another question, "You an that even after pregnancy, the parents should still be intimate so the feelings of love or atleast fondness is important?" I nodded and smiled. He was quiet so I continued my educational talk.

I then opened up about Eieneos' unique birthing thods. I then told him that since Eieneos people are known to be the deities of fertility and childbirth, they have mutiple ways to conceive and give birth to children. The first part was still the sa where a couple gets intimate but it can change afterwards. If an Eienean descent person wanted children, they can conceive one on the first try regardless of the fertility rate of their partner which made Eieneans the sought-after partners for all races. Once the child is conceived, the father can either stay pregnant with the child for a full term and give birth normally OR the Eienean parent can take out the child from the father's womb in the form of an orb or an egg depending on the race and then incubate it through a special device to protect it and ensure the child stays nourished. Both parents can then simply inject their mana and life essences into the device to nourish the child. This is the perfect option for couples that only cam together for convenience of having heirs. This frees the males from suffering and pain though most n hated the incubation thod since it robs them of their fatherhood. If they give the child up to the Eienean parent, the custody of the child will solely belong to Eieneos. Eieneans are powerful existences so if it ends with a battle for custody, it is a sure win for them. They can take the child no matter where the male hides. It is not like they can fight with deities, right?

I asked Ioannis which thod he preferred and he confidently said, "I want to carry the child full term and give birth to it. My body is now of a mystique so I know I can do it even if it is every year." Did he just change his mind? Did finding out about these four n and Nische made him feel threatened? I shook my head and replied "Every two years is fine. Your health has to be prioritized and I want to consider what makes you happy." He looked at and then he started crying. What just happened?!

I held his face with both my hands and asked, "What's wrong?" He held both my hands and he replied, "Why do you have to be so amazing and why do I have to be so normal?! Why do the n I have to compete with for your attention gets more and more ridiculous and outstanding? How will I ever beat a deity?! Why do you always et these pesky n everywhere you go? They hover around you like flies. They're pests! I'll give birth to as many children as you want so just stop taking in more n!" He's having an emotional ltdown. He wanted to rant a bit more so I just shut him up with a torrid kiss. He tried to push back so he can speak more but I simply kept both his wrists in my grip then grabbed the back of his head so he can't escape. I kissed him until he's breathless but every ti our lips part, he tries to rant again. I just kissed him over and over until he had no strength to speak anymore. Should I just use the thod he told while he was angry last ti? Bedding him till he forgot why he's angry worked really well last ti so I may just try that. I'll eat him up so many tis that he won't even have the strength to think about his insecurities.

Once the forceful calming took effect, I just hugged him tight while caressing his back. He's still sniffing and panting a bit from his emotional outburst and being kissed till he's breathless. Once I noticed his breathing has normalized, I checked on him with a simple tease, "You know that I can't avoid n that approach if I want more children. I can just use the second thod and take the children and hide them in this realm. I don't have to take in any of the n from the other races. As for you giving birth to as many children as I want, I will definitely take on that offer." I felt his body stiffen then shiver. He has to learn to stop giving offers when he's emotional, not that I am not reaping benefits out of it. He was about to speak, seemingly want to take it back when I spoke in a firm tone, "YOU CAN'T TAKE BACK THE OFFER OR I'LL NEVER TOUCH YOU AGAIN." I heard him gulp as he had to swallow all the complaints he was about to say. He then said in a soft voice, "Every two years." I smiled victoriously at him and he simply looked away with a beet-red face.

Honestly, I am just teasing him. I love to do the baby-making process (a lot) but I am not planning on turning him into a baby factory. Our lifespan is kind of long so how many children would that be if we have one every two years. Damn. Even every five years would establish a whole village with just our offsprings alone. I have the money but I do not have unlimited ti and patience to take care of all of them. If it was just Ioannis it was fine but eventually the others will have their own children with . I am quite sure this world will give more surprises than my heart could barely take so having one or two with Ioannis is already perfect for .
