Chapter 1913: The Demigod’s Plan
Actually, most of the people here were Older Brother Jayad’s lovers, but not all of them. Take those six ascetic rioters, for instance; they were also beauties who had never experienced a proper romance. Their age was similar to Sebastian’s, so they were quite suitable.
Moreover, there were other guests. Shortly after Sebastian sat down, there was another knock on the door. This time, it was Amelia and Samantha who entered, Amelia’s belly was noticeably huge.
“I thought you wouldn’t have time to visit, given how busy the clinic is,” I said, standing up and offering her a bit of support, mindful of her condition as a pregnant woman.
“Our clinic is closed for holidays during the Winter Veil Festival. With Samantha manning the clinic, there’s nothing to worry about,” Amelia said with a smile as she walked in.
I almost forgot; she never cared about patients’ lives and always did as she pleased. Anyway, the clinic was hers, so closing for the holidays was perfectly normal.
As for Samantha, the one at my home was just a doll nurse. Her main body was always stationed at Amelia’s Clinic and never moved.
“After you invited me, I considered whether to come, but the little baby seemed to really want to, so here I am,” Amelia said, caressing her belly.
“The little baby wants to come?” I asked, looking at her belly in confusion. Then, my consciousness experienced another dizzying sensation.
When I came to again, I was still in the living room at home. The fire in the fireplace was burning fiercely, and everyone around had disappeared. Where Amelia had been sitting, only a baby cradle remained.
“Is my home the background this time?” I asked the cradle with a wry smile.
“Direct, carefree~” came the Demigod’s voice from the cradle. He probably meant that using my home as a background saved the trouble of modeling, making it much easier.
“Fine, what do you need me for this time?” I asked.
“Medicine, thank you, delicious, want to eat~” the Demigod still spoke to me with his slurred voice.
“You don’t need to thank me for the potion; it’s just a fair transaction. Besides, Amelia helped me a lot, and I couldn’t stand by idly when she was uncomfortable. You also helped me conceal myself from prying eyes, so thank you for that too,” I said.
“As for the delicious food, I’ll bring it to your dreams later, but do you even know if you can eat?” I asked the cradle suspiciously, wondering if he had even grown teeth in his embryonic state.
“Tomorrow, need, moon, born~” the Demigod didn’t answer my question but instead uttered several more words.
This was a bit difficult to understand this time. After confirming with him several times and checking the date for tomorrow, I finally understood what the Demigod wanted to tell me.
Tomorrow is the Winter Veil Festival, but it’s also Christmas. This hasn’t changed; it’s the day Jesus was born. Similarly, it’s a suitable time for other Demigods to be born, as tomorrow is a triple conjunction of the moons.
Since I transmigrated here, this is the first time for a triple moon conjunction. Of course, I’m excluding the day I transmigrated; I heard that day was also a triple moon conjunction.
According to records, whenever three moons align, disasters are bound to occur. This is because when the moons align, the barrier between the Human Realm and higher dimensions weakens, allowing divine power to enter the mortal realm more easily.
Two moons aligning thins the barrier, while three moons aligning makes it practically nonexistent. The Winter Veil Festival always has a triple moon conjunction, making it a holy day for many churches.
Since divine power can enter the mortal realm on this day, it’s naturally a good time for Demigods to be born. Thus, Christmas isn’t just celebrated by Christianity; many religions have Demigods born on this day.
Could he be planning to be born tomorrow? That’s too soon, less than three months. While I was worrying about this, after a vague conversation with the Demigod, I realized he wasn’t ready for birth yet and didn’t plan to be born.
But this couldn’t change the fact that he would receive a massive amount of divine power from higher dimensions on Christmas. This would inevitably have a significant impact on Amelia, so he guided his mother to find me.
“I do have some ideas, but I’m only free during the day tomorrow. In the evening, I have to attend the Lord of the City’s Winter Veil Festival banquet with Older Brother Jayad,” I said. Tomorrow, I planned to get rid of Rodrigo once and for all. The arrow was already nocked and ready to fly.
“Female companion, I help~” the Demigod suggested.
“You mean, have someone bring Amelia as their female companion into the venue, and in return, you’d help me?” I asked, startled. This seemed like a viable solution.
I wondered if it was because babies, or rather, Demigods, thought differently from mortals. His ideas were often out of this world, with thought processes vastly different from ordinary people, yet they seemed to make some sense.
Bringing Amelia into the venue as a female companion, having her stay by my side while I suppress the divine power from higher dimensions for her, and then the Demigod’s strength would greatly increase tomorrow, allowing him to help me fight Rodrigo. It was indeed a brilliant idea that I hadn’t thought of.
The current problem is who would bring Amelia in as a female companion. I have to go with Older Brother Jayad, so that’s impossible.
The only person I could think of was Little Elaine. He was also in need of a female companion. Bringing a maid wouldn’t be ideal, as a maid lacks combat power and might just get in the way.
“Alright, I’ve got it. We can do it this way, but I’ll be causing trouble tomorrow. You need to ensure your mother’s safety carefully. Under no circumstances should Amelia get hurt, even if you don’t help me,” I said.
Actually, I had intended to outsmart Rodrigo all along. The combat preparations were just in case he counterattacked. Involving Amelia would be problematic.
“Okay, goodbye, other mother.” the Demigod said.
“Godmother…” I said weakly, only halfway through when the world spun again, and I was kicked out of the dream.
When I woke up, I was sitting on the sofa. I saw they had already placed several dishes of sumptuous dinner on the table. A golden-yellow roast pig was placed in the center of the table, surrounded by various other delicacies.
“What did my child say to you?” Amelia asked. It seemed she already knew that when I slept like this, I was communicating with the Demigod. It appeared the Demigod could communicate with her to some extent.
The others didn’t seem surprised. Those present understood Occultism to varying degrees, so they could explain that I had entered a dream state.
“He said he needs you to stay by my side tomorrow so I can shield you from the Moon God’s divine power erosion. However, I have to attend a banquet at the Lord of the City’s tonight, so I thought you could enter the banquet with another young man,” I said.
“Okay, no problem. I understand.” Amelia didn’t object. Since it was arranged by her child, it wouldn’t harm her.
“Since everyone is here and the food is served, let’s start the banquet,” Jayad said. Everyone sat down at the long table.
But they soon noticed something strange: “Parul, aren’t you eating?”
