Chapter 806 The Morningstar Family
Draco and Eva slowly closed their eyes as the nanites flushed around them, both taking a worried look at the newborn Lucitera. It seemed that before she went in, the baby had taken a liking to her name... at least, given the fact that she was currently thrashing about in excitement.
Soon, all three of them went out while Amber watched with a slight smile. She sighed as the lights in this room dimmed, and she exited to the main hall, gazing at the floating brain that seemed unfazed by all that was going on.
Amber sneered. "Continue acting like it doesn't pain you. At least I'm true to my feelings."
The brain in the tank trembled visibly, but didn't make any other movements, while the scientist hustled around and resumed her work with a scowl of jealousy.
..........
Draco opened his eyes and found himself right back in the Tower, on the 91st floor. As he had spent close to four hours in the real world with Eva and the birth of Lucitera, almost a day had passed in the game.
Everyone had made great progress in climbing.
Aliza and Jenna, who had been unable to climb past the 61st step, were now at the 87th step together, seemingly ready to take the next step.
Jessica the Amphiptere had previously halted at the 60th step, yet now she was in front of the princesses, having broken through to the 92nd step after all this time and tempering. After all, she was the evolutionary type and her Draconic lineage meant that Divinity was not a problem for her in the long run.
Kuliber, the most powerful among the Demon Gods, had advanced from the 56th step to the 78th step, while Shantia, the weakest Demon God, had climbed to the 69th step from the 45th step.
The strongest Dragon Soul, named Alduin, had reached the 95th step from 78th step while the weakest, named Mirmulnir (aka the loser from Bleak Falls Barrow) had reached the 91st step from the 71st step.
Zaine and Roma were caressing their children on the 98th step, along with Chrona, who was leaning on Clarent gently while the fellow carefully cleaned her scales.
Meanwhile, Sheera, was being supported by Qiong Qi and her two children as she climbed each step with vigor and determination. She had previously been panting at the 56th step, but was now at the 76th step.
Moreover, Qiong Qi had somehow found cheerleader outfits for himself and his two daughters, and they continually sang songs and danced for their wife/mother in support, making the manticore blush, yet feel warm inside.
That was the great part about having a shameless husband that women didn't discover until after. Precisely because they had no dignity, they saw no qualms in doing things that other alpha males might find unmanly or distasteful, especially if it was for their loved ones.
Among the concubines, Ophie was now at the 65th step from the 45th step, Natasha on the 75th from the 53rd, Verita on the 41st from the 34th.
Seriously, don't expect too much from Verita and the other 28 human concubines. They were limited by bloodline and had no ground breaking talents, so to even make it this far showed their grit, and the blessing that living in Draco's energy rich Inner Universe provided even simple humans.
As for the remaining Goddess Descendant concubines, they had moved up to the 80th tier of steps from the 50th ones.
Seeing this, Draco turned his head to the right to see that Eva had spawned beside him in her glamorous beauty, lighting up the entire world as if the sun had risen.
Draco could only sigh. Anyone suffering from depression or suicidal thoughts would become the most cheerful and pleasant fellow after taking one look at Eva. She just cleansed the soul in a way that was hard to describe.
The best thing, however, was Lucitera, their darling newborn who had appeared in Eva's arms. The newborn was startled by the change in surroundings for her. One moment ago, she had been in that boring white room with her Papa and Mama, the next she had entered this place that had a strangely annoying energy.
"Well, it seems like we're back. Let me catch you up on everything that went on." Draco suggested with a chuckle as he connected his mind with Eva.
Eva smiled and interfaced with him, the two sharing their experiences so thoroughly that it was as if the other had lived the life of their partner. As such, even though Eva was not physically on the floors she missed, she had mentally already experienced them fully through Draco and understood everything that went on till now.
Eva opened her eyes and had a look of endless regret. "Sigh, if only I had been available during the MOBA floors. How great would it have been for met to castrate Shangtian over and over again while he respawns infinitely!"
Draco shuddered with horror as he heard his Soulmate's words. He couldn't help but feel like Shangtian had been lucky that Eva needed to give birth, or his experience would have been one for the ages.
Once Eva appeared, Hikari and the other wives waved with excitement. It had been so long since they had seen their beloved big sis, and she was still as wondrous as ever.
Oh, is that a baby in her hands? Gasp, could that be the baby she had been carrying in the Realm of the Gods with Draco? Wow!
"Since, your beloved little sisters want to see you, let's go and greet them, eh?" Draco smiled as he rose to his feet.
Eva nodded and gazed gently at her band of little sisters. She was especially surprised to find a little fierce looking Black Dragon resting on Hikari's back. She followed Draco along with the curious but silent Lucitera who could feel a strange aura from the top of the stairs.
Draco and Eva began climbing the steps, but their climb was vastly different from anyone else's. While everyone, even the fastest of them, had climbed the steps one at a time, Draco and Eva walked as if they were on an elevator, each step bringing them more than 5 steps upwards.
In no time, they reached the 98th step, also surpassing many floors as they reached the 99th floor of the Tower. One step further, and they would enter the final 100th floor and clear the Tower thoroughly, but they were in no rush.
The longer they hovered outside, the more the Tower Spirit would be forced to stew in panic and fear, deeply regretting its foolishness but having no way to solve the issues it created.
Rather, Draco and Eva greeted their family with smiles. Zaine, Roma and Hikari crowed around Eva, with Hikari reverting to human form. They asked questions and pestered Eva endlessly, who smiled and replied to them all.
Draco dodged three sneak attacks from Qiong Qi, Clarent and Zhulong, repelling the fellows with ease. The Dragon Ancestor laughed uproariously as he greeted his beloved disciple. The Phoenix Ancestor also walked over to Eva and rubbed her disciple's hair gently, gazing lovingly at her and Lucitera.
Eva unhesitatingly handed her baby over to the Phoenix Ancestor to hold, who immediately became shy and embarrassed. After all, she had no children of her own due to her and Tianzi's pressure to become the new pillars of the Dragon and Phoenix Sect back in the Martial Spirit World.
Seeing this cute behavior from the Phoenix Ancestor, Eva laughed, and even Lucitera was amused as she decided to let this person hold her. After all, she seemed important to her Mama, so she wasn't someone dangerous.
The Phoenix Ancestor, Luo Xue'er, only held Lucitera for a short while before she passed her back and ran to hide beside Tianzi, who understood his partner's situation, thus he didn't make fun of her. Rather, he knew it was time for him to step up.
He walked over and bent down to Lucitera's eyes level.
"Hahaha, brat, my name is Tianzi ,and I'm your Godfather. Call me Uncle Big Dragon!"
Lucitera pondered for a bit and spoke in a cute voice. "Unca Bwig Dwagon!"
Hearing her term for him, Tianzi couldn't help but feel like he had achieved nirvana. Immediately, he had a breakthrough in his cultivation and reached the Immortal Emperor realm, his face ruddy and full of joy. For him, this little brat was nominally his Goddaughter, but was no different from his granddaughter.
He was already drawing up plans on how to throughly pamper her and make sure her life was smooth as paper from now on.
"This is your Godmother. Call her Auntie Pretty Phoenix!" Tianzi stated as he dragged Xue'er over, who was slightly panicking.
Lucitera pondered again and replied. "Auntie Pwetty Phwenis!"
Hearing her being called by such a cute little girl, Xue'er lost her shyness as her eyes misted over slightly. "En, little dear. Don't worry, if anyone dares to bully you, call me. I will protect you no matter what!"
Eva smiled and kissed Lucitera on the cheek and whispered softly. "Say thank you to Auntie Pretty Phoenix."
Lucitera didn't understand, but was obedient to her mama. "Tank yu, Auntie Pwetty Phwenis!"
After that, Lucitera got introduced to Zaine, Roma and Hikari. What confused her was that her mama referred to these lovely other women as her second mamas, and that they were also like her. Lucitera couldn't comprehend having more than one Mama, but she didn't make a fuss.
As for Draco, there was no way, he would introduce Clarent and Qiong Qi as her other papas. Rather, he directly introduced them as evil villains who she must vanquish once she became older.
Hearing this slander, how could Qiong Qi and Clarent take it? Immediately, they entered a life and death brawl with Draco, causing a storm to occur as they fought up and down the stairs.
What was most interesting was when Rosella, Loki and Kuro approached Lucitera. The other babies could move on their own, and Lucitera could too, but she didn't want to display that capability just yet.
The siblings, both real and digital, observed each other, feeling the familiar bloodline aura that tied them all together. However, in Lucitera it was so potent that it felt like they were in front of their father himself!
As such, a natural hierarchy was born between the kids at this moment subconsciously. Rosella, Loki and Kuro understood that this sibling of theirs was the 'big sis', despite having been born last, while they were the lower siblings.
As such, just like a little brother would display respect for his big brother, they too seemed reserved and respectful around Lucitera.
If it was like this for the main three, one could image how the second tier descendants felt. They were short of bowing on their knees to Lucitera, feeling that she was their ruler on this earth.
Lucitera herself could not understand these strange feelings too much, but all she knew was that this was her family and her responsibly was to protect them and make them happy.
The burden of an older sibling fell on her shoulders literally minutes after birth, and she was feeling it.
As for Rila, she gazed at Lucitera with a strange look. For some reason, Lucitera gave her the feeling that she was looking at an alternate version of herself, and this was even more valid since they looked almost the same.
Then again, she was the daughter of Caelo and his partner from Homados, while Lucitera was the daughter of Draco and Eva from this universe. Since both of them were existences born from the two strongest partners in that universe, it was likely that they were a universal phenomenon that repeated itself with each creation, with some slight difference unique to each universe.
Rila had some idea of this, but Lucitera didn't. She just felt like looking at Rila was looking at herself, which, as you could imagine, was too much for a baby's brain to handle. Immediately, Lucitera felt sleepy from all the hubbub and yawned in Eva's arms.
