Chapter 514 The third
When the group returned home, they were welcomed by happy but confused gazes. Rain usually wouldn't bring such people to their side without a good reason, after all, but soon they learned the reason for it.
"Don't worry, Rain," Roan said. "I am all over that. I blame half of the reason was caught due to my incompetence, forty percent due to the war, and ten percent due to many unknown factors at the time."
Artisia recognized Roan's voice and trembled a bit... until now, she had stayed silent during the whole time as if she had come to the terms with whatever happened, but it seemed that several things still were affecting her mind.
"I suppose that is one way of looking at it," Rain said. "Terra, can you heal her?"
"No problem," Terra said. "Still, shouldn't you tell them a few things before anything else?"
"It is fine, and they know that if they try to do anything against people here, their heads will roll at the same moment," Rain said. "I don't trust them one hundred percent, and they know that they need to walk on a tightrope in order not to get on my bad side."
The headquarters already had some free rooms for the newcomers, so Rain didn't have to work on expanding it for them... at least for now. In any case, Rain pulled Seara's hands and then began to take her to his room.
"... What are you doing?" Seara frowned.
"I told you, and you realize that I wouldn't let the enemies determine how I would live my life," Rain shrugged. "Why are you so confused?"
"Because I didn't think that you would go that far... not in the middle of the day!" Seara said.
"You have to enjoy the present as much as possible since it is a time that won't come back," Rain said.
"It is time to get in shape again," Reca said.
It was quite something to see one minute a woman breastfeeding a newborn child and then, in the next moment, swinging a spear and making everyone around feel shivers, imagining themselves being hit by it.
Also, at the end of the month, Rain also confirmed that his family was increasing as well... It was a bit too soon for that, but they realized that Seara was pregnant as well... with Rain and Terra's skills confirming that there was no mistake.
"You are pregnant, congratulations," Terra smiled.
Seara smiled but soon began to cry like a child... hearing that from Terra meant a lot to her. They are still rivals for the most part, but that doesn't mean that rivals can't be friends.
"All that hard work paid off," Rain said while grinning.
"What hard work... you were only enjoying yourself!" Seara protested. "For an entire week."
"You seemed to be enjoying more than me, though," Rain's smile grew wider.
"Honestly, you..." Seara said and then sighed. "I will talk with my father."
"I will go talk sigh with Gramps. You need to rest and prepare for the birth from here onward," Rain said. "With Terra and me here, it is unlikely that the baby will have any complications, but we can't take any chances. Besides, I want to see Gramps pass out due to the shock."
"Papa, why are you laughing?" Danny asked while pulling Rain's shirt.
"Because I am happy you are going to become a big brother again, and you are going to become a big sister, Annie," Rain said while putting his kids on his shoulders. "That is a great responsibility. Older siblings have the duty to protect the younger ones, after all."
