Chapter 523

I've started a new story, but I'm experiencing writer's block and lack ideas. The pressure to update more chapters is also quite high. I'll take a break and update twice tomorrow.

2. Finally, I fell for it.

Inside the bedroom, the Silver Dragon Clan's physicians were busy running around, not daring to be negligent for even a moment.

The maids went in and out, fetching hot water, wringing out towels, and changing blankets, trying to be busy yet efficient.

Although the scene looked chaotic, everything was in good order under the direction of Ischa and Head Maid Anna, and no mistakes occurred.

Amidst the group of doctors and maids, the faint, weak moans of Losweiser could be heard from time to time.

She is experiencing the pain of childbirth.

In the corner of the bedroom, Leon held Xiao Guang in one arm and Mu En in the other, while Noa stood beside him.

The father and his three daughters watched as everyone bustled about, but they themselves couldn't offer any help.

Leon and his daughters just asked their eldest sister what they could do.

The eldest sister said it's not time for you to make a move yet.

Leon didn't dare to ask any more questions, afraid of delaying Ischa and the others' important business, so he stood aside with his daughters, waiting for orders at any time.

Little Guang, nestled in his arms, tucked his tail in and unconsciously clenched Leon's clothes with his little hands.

Her large, pink eyes were filled with worry. She gazed at the bed curtains, listened to her Mom's weak moans, and whispered...

"I didn't know childbirth was so painful... It's terrifying..."

People who enjoy life can always find joy in everyday life. Besides having a positive attitude towards finding joy, they also have a stronger ability to empathize compared to their peers.

Because of his outstanding empathy, Xiao Guang is good at thinking from other people's perspectives and experiencing happiness from different angles.

It is precisely because of this ability that she can better understand the oppression and discomfort in such a serious atmosphere.

Despite his young age, the pain his mother was enduring at that moment was conveyed to Xiaoguang through his surroundings.

That's why she rarely hides in her Daddy's arms.

Leon looked down at his youngest daughter, thinking of telling her a joke to ease her tension.

"Your birth was actually more frightening."

Xiao Guang looked up. "Why do you say that, Dad?"

Leon chuckled. "On the day you were born, a dragon king's head was hung on our front door. Wasn't that scary?"

A slight smile finally appeared on Xiao Guang's slightly sullen face, and his tense mood eased a bit.

However, just as she was about to make a joke in response to her Dad, she felt her hand, which was supporting her thigh, trembling slightly.

That slight smile froze on Xiao Guang's face as she stared at the man who had just been telling her jokes.

It turns out that Dad's relaxed demeanor was all an act.

He cared about his mother more than himself, or even more than his two older sisters; he cared so much that his right hand trembled.

Moreover, upon closer inspection, Dad's lips also appeared slightly pale.

Xiao Guang had never seen his Dad like this before.

In her memory, her Dad had always been the kind of capable person who could handle any emergency with ease.

But now... as his Mom gives birth, he can only use jokes to comfort his daughter to slightly ease his own tense nerves.

Xiao Guang pursed his lips, didn't say anything, but just hugged his Dad tighter.

Leon silently watched the maids and doctors, occasionally hearing his wife's soft murmurs.

What he saw and heard brought his thoughts back to the day Xiao Guang was born a few years ago.

Back then, he was just like he is now, standing silently in the corner of the room with Noa and Mu En, unable to speak or help.

Then Constantine invaded, and he donned his Black-Gold War Chariot once more to meet the enemy.

By the time they returned, Xiao Guang had already been born.

Slaying the dragon is simple; it only takes a few minutes.

But those few minutes were the most painful ordeal for Losweiser.

Although he later heard from the maids how difficult and arduous His Your Majesty had been, Leon could understand her situation and feelings at the time.

But what you hear is never as good as what you see with your own eyes.

The oppressive and stifling atmosphere almost made the once strongest Dragon Slayer suffocate.

He worried about his wife, even though he knew she was surrounded by the best and most outstanding physicians of the Silver Dragon Clan, he still couldn't help but worry.

When Ischa, who was also family, heard that Losweiser was about to give birth, she also dropped everything and rushed here to help.

Midwifery is a delicate task, Leon couldn't help with it; he had to rely entirely on Ischa and Anna.

In comparison, that sense of powerlessness became even heavier.

"Your Prince!"

The maid Milan suddenly called out.

Leon's eyes lit up, and he immediately perked up, thinking he could help.

"What's wrong, Milan?"

"Please lead the Princesses to the balcony to wait. Several physicians will be coming shortly."

Leon was stunned, and the little excitement that had just ignited was mercilessly extinguished.

He nodded and led Noa and her two little ones to the balcony.

Noa poured him a glass of water and handed it to him.

"Ah... thank you." Leon took the water glass and took a small sip.

"Cheer up, Dad."

Noa noticed her father's dejected state. "Think about it, if Mom knew you were so absent-minded, she would definitely laugh at you, wouldn't she?"

Looking down at the water glass in his hand, Leon tried to imagine what it would be like if Losweiser actually saw him like this...

They might say something like, "Leon, are you scared by such a small thing? You're such a little baby. Come here, little baby, call me 'big sister'."

Or perhaps,

"Please, you're my husband, the Silver Dragon King's husband. Show some guts, okay? Don't just know how to slay dragons, you idiot."

It sounds like something she could say.

Thinking of this, Leon couldn't help but smile, and his suppressed and tense mood eased slightly.

"Hey, brother-in-law, sorry to keep you waiting."

A short while later, Ischa came to the balcony and said, "It's your turn."

Leon looked up and hurriedly stood up. "How can I help, sister? Tell me."

"Do what you do best."

Leon was taken aback.

What are you best at?

Hiss~~

Sister, you can't talk about things like that!

"Hey, don't just stand there, come with me."

After saying that, Ischa grabbed Leon's wrist and quickly walked to the bedside.

Then, several maids were arranged to take care of Noa and the others.

Passing through the doctor and maid, I came to Losweiser's side.

Leon looked at his wife lying in bed, her hair damp with sweat and sticking to her face.

The Queen's face was deathly pale, her breathing was slightly heavy, her silver eyes were half-open, and her vision was somewhat blurred.

"Leon... you've come..."

She whispered her husband's name.

Seeing how weak Losweiser, Leon was at a loss for words.

All I felt was pain in my heart.

He didn't come to his senses until Ischa teased him from behind.

"I'm here, Losweiser, I'm here."

Leon knelt down beside the bed, took her trembling hand in his, and felt the warmth of her palm.

When this familiar large hand grasped hers, a relieved smile finally appeared on Losweiser's pale face.

"Am I... not pretty anymore...?"

"No, you look good, just as good as usual."

"You lied to me... you... idiot..."

Leon reached out and smoothed the hair on her face, then gently stroked her slightly cool cheek, smiling tenderly, "I won't lie to you, Losweiser, no matter what, you are always the most beautiful Queen."

"Hmph... I'll barely, barely believe you..."

At the same time, Anna whispered to Milan and several doctors beside her,

"While the Prince and His Your Majesty are chatting and have diverted His Your Majesty's attention, let's hurry up and deliver the baby."

"Yes, Head Maid."

The most crucial stage of childbirth requires everyone to be careful and attentive.

"Leon... I hate you..."

Leon was a little confused. "Why did you suddenly say you hate it—"

"Your wife is giving birth, you have to agree to everything she says. Can't you tell the truth from a lie, you idiot?" Ischa retorted from behind.

Leon nodded quickly, like a chick pecking at rice.

"Okay, hate me, I hate you, I'm the most annoying person."

"Do you want me to... not hate you...?"

"Honey, tell me, how can I stop hating me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Losweiser's gaze briefly bypassed Leon and met his older sister Ischa's eyes for a moment.

The two sisters exchanged glances, as if to say, "We've finally been fooled."

Losweiser withdrew her gaze and looked at Leon.

"You must... promise me my next... request..."

"Okay, go ahead and say it, I'll agree to anything."

"The first requirement..."

"Uh-huh."

"From now on... you're not allowed to teach the baby... to play the suona..."

3. You've turned your husband into a wishing well, huh? (Bonus chapter)

Playing the suona was General Leon's specialty for creating abstract art, so it wouldn't be a problem if he didn't teach it to his third child.

After all, talent can be inherited, but abstract thinking cannot, and Leon understands this principle.

"Okay, I won't teach the baby to play the suona."

Seeing Leon agree so readily, Losweiser smiled faintly, a slight smirk playing on her lips.

"And... I want you... uh! Hiss..."
