The Birth and Origin of Life
"Bell? What are you doing?"
Hermione watched in bewilderment as Bell waved his Wand, leaving behind a series of mysterious Ancient Runes characters in the air.
"Ahem, it's just some preliminary preparation, it'll be done soon, just a moment."
Bell said awkwardly.
He really didn't dare tell Hermione, because he was afraid that Shanna would suddenly run over and witness their intimate moment.
Knowing his younger sister as he did, Bell knew that if the little girl encountered something fun or got into trouble she couldn't handle after completing her adventure inside the carriage, she would likely come to him to clean up her mess.
If Hermione knew about this, Hermione would definitely refuse to stay no matter what.
"Oh~"
Hermione tilted her head, feeling puzzled despite not knowing much about such matters, but she didn't say anything more.
But then again, doesn't Bell seem to know a little too much about that kind of thing? Could it be that he's already done it with someone else?!
Thinking about this, Hermione's gaze towards Bell became somewhat strange again. She started to become suspicious again.
Fortunately, faced with such intense temptation, Bell delivered an absolutely superb performance.
A Defense Barrier that could be described as "fortress-level" would take most Elite Wizard about 10 minutes to set up. But Bell completed it in less than 2 minutes.
So, if you don't push yourself, you'll never know what you're really capable of.
"Honey, what's wrong?"
Bell noticed Hermione's strange look and asked her in confusion.
But before Hermione could answer, he eagerly took two steps forward, lowered his head, and tightly covered her mouth with his kiss.
Whether it was fortunate or unfortunate, the worst-case scenario that Bell had anticipated— Shanna coming to him to take the blame—did not happen.
In the early morning, the soft morning sun shone through the window into the room.
Bell opened his eyes groggily, looked down at Hermione in his arms, and after a while, he remembered what was going on.
As he gently stroked Hermione's back, a happy smile curved Bell lips.
"Hmm~"
Perhaps sensing Bell's movement, Hermione let out a cute little whimper, like a small animal, and slowly opened her eyes.
Good morning, darling.
Bell tightened his grip on Hermione's arms, gently kissed Hermione forehead, and greeted her.
"Bell?"
Hermione, who was also a little sleepy, like Bell before her, didn't immediately recall what happened last night.
It wasn't until she felt Bell's body temperature that Hermione suddenly realized...
"I was wrong, I admit my mistake, and I promise I won't do it again!"
"That's still missing... What did you say?"
Hermione suddenly realized that something seemed off about Bell's apology.
I said, I love you.
After saying that, Bell kissed Hermione's lips again.
There's no way around it; his girlfriend is just too cute and too tempting. Especially now, with Hermione exuding an aura of languidness.
"By the way, Bell, what time is it?"
Looking at the sun projected by magic in the sky outside the window, Hermione felt that the sun seemed a little high up.
"What time? Let me check..."
"Gege! Gege! Are you in there? Gege!"
Just as Bell was about to check the time, Shanna's shouts suddenly came from outside.
When Shanna didn't see her Gege at the Training Ground that morning, she asked Ke Ersha and the others, but they also said they didn't know where Gege was. Shanna was already extremely puzzled.
"Shan- Shanna!? W-what do we do, Bell! It's... it's Shan-Shan-Shan-Shan-Shan- Shanna!"
Hearing Shanna's voice from outside the door, Hermione was so frightened that she could barely speak.
If Shanna saw how she and Bell were now, how could she ever face him again?
"Don't panic, leave it to me. Just don't make a sound."
While Bell was inwardly panicking, he outwardly put on a calm and collected demeanor.
After instructing Hermione to keep quiet, Bell waved his hand to dispel the Soundproof Barrier in the room.
(The Soundproof Barrier set up by Bell only blocks internal sounds from going out, but does not block external sounds from coming in.)
"Shanna, I'm inside."
Bell shouted loudly towards the door.
"Gege! I finally found you! Why didn't you come to morning exercise today? And Hermione, I don't know why she didn't come either."
Also, Gege, why can't I open this door?
Shanna pushed hard against the door in front of her.
This is the door to her Gege's bedroom. If it were any other door, even the door to her parents' room, Shanna would have kicked it down long ago.
Upon hearing Shanna mention her name, Hermione was instantly drenched in cold sweat.
"Ahem, Shanna, your Gege is currently conducting a very important experiment, and he's lost track of time."
Also, this experiment is not suitable for you to watch, so I sealed the door to prevent any accidents.
As for Hermione ... she told me before that she felt a little unwell after waking up this morning, so she wouldn't be coming to her morning workout today."
As a good Gege, Bell would never do something like lie to his own sister. Therefore, everything he said above is true!
"What kind of experiment is it?"
Her Gege's words reminded Shanna of the summer before last, when her Gege worked day and night on experiments to create the Mad Bear.
Later on, even the routine morning exercise was canceled by my Gege.
So Shanna is very curious now, is her Gege planning to make some powerful magical artifact again?
As for Hermione?
She doesn't care at all!
If she hadn't known that her Gege cared about Hermione, she wouldn't have told Gege in the first place that Hermione hadn't come over this morning.
"This... is a biological experiment, studying the birth and origin of life!"
Bell's mouth was running like Train.
"Oh~!"
Shanna nodded in amazement.
As expected of her Gege, he's already started researching the birth and origin of life. It seems she needs to work harder; she can't fall behind her Gege like Hermione did.
"Gege, when are you coming out for breakfast?"
Although her doubts were answered, Shanna immediately began to worry again.
As her Gege's sister, she had to take good care of Gege and prevent Gege from burying himself in experiments for a week without sleeping again.
That would be very bad for your health.
"You go to the Great Hall first, I'll pack up my lab supplies and then come over."
Bell now only hopes that Shanna can leave as soon as possible, otherwise he doesn't dare to move an inch.
As for Hermione, needless to say, the other party was so frightened that they almost stopped breathing.
"Then I'll wait for my Gege."
"No, no need. I've been doing experiments all day and I'm a bit dirty. I need to take a shower before I go. You go ahead."
Oh, and remember to bring Fina along too; the little one must be hungry.
Bell couldn't let Shanna wait for him outside; how would he explain that Hermione was also in his room?
In addition, for safety's sake, and to prevent the little guy who is easily bribed by food from leaking secrets, Bell specifically instructed Shanna to take that unreliable little guy Fina with her as well.
"Okay, then hurry up, Gege!"
"Okay, you can go now."
As Shanna's footsteps faded into the distance, and after receiving a signal from Bell...
"Ugh! I'm so suffocating!"
Hermione finally dared to breathe normally.
She knew all too well that the Bell siblings had incredibly sensitive senses.
Although she wasn't sure what level Shanna had reached, she knew that if Bell was standing outside the door, Bell could hear her breathing even if she was just inside the room.
"Hahaha!"
For some reason, looking at Hermione's current state, Bell just wanted to laugh.
"You're still laughing! It's all your fault!"
Seeing that Bell, the culprit, dared to mock her, Hermione angrily bit Bell's shoulder.
"Okay, I was wrong. Let's take a shower quickly and then go to the Great Hall. If we're late, Shanna will get suspicious."
With that, Bell picked up Hermione.
"Let me go!"
Hermione struggled slightly.
Normally, she wouldn't feel too shy if Bell hugged her like that. After all, they've been together for so long, and she's pretty much used to Bell's affectionate gestures.
But Hermione felt that being carried in Bell's arms like that in the current situation was something she might never get used to in her life.
"By the way, Bell, do you think I might have a baby?"
Hermione gently stroked her belly, and a maternal glow suddenly shone from her.
Last night, they didn't take any protective measures.
However, this is not because Bell forgot, but because in the Magical World, there is no such thing as protective measures.
There aren't that many wizards! Not every wizarding family is as prolific as the Weasley.
Moreover, the more powerful a wizard is, the more difficult it is for them to conceive. They all wish they could have artificial insemination, so who would bother with contraception?
"If you're pregnant, then you'll have no choice but to marry me."
Even if she didn't, Hermione would still have no choice but to marry him. Bell wouldn't let Hermione get away.
"Hmph! Who wants to marry a scoundrel like you!"
