The Baby Isn’t Yours

Chapter 131:

Light burst from the bracelet wrapped around Kalias wrist, and after a long time, Gaia appeared.

Whoa!

Gaia, stretching her weary body, extended her arms and pulled Kalia, who was holding Sasha, into a tight embrace.

Kalia! Sasha! I missed you.

She hugged them tightly, bouncing around like an innocent girl, but her gaze towards Kalia was intense and profound.

Kalia also expressed her delight while holding Gaia in her other arm.

In the meantime, Sasha, feeling frustrated, couldnt hold back and made a complaining noise.

Our Sasha, youve grown again during that time? Very impressive.

Gaia, hugging Sasha in her arms, spun around with the child.

Drea, who was watching the scene while nestled in Simons embrace, couldnt contain herself and tapped her feet anxiously.

Stay calm, Drea. Sasha is fine.

Kyao Hng.

Drea, squirming in Simons arms, stretched her body helplessly, trapped in his unmoving grip.

Simon spoke up.

I called you because I have something to ask.

You have something to ask? Great! But from now on, can you call me even if you dont have anything to ask? Its so boring there.

Upon Gaias words, Simon smiled gently.

Perhaps I might have to call Gaia frequently from now on. Would that be alright? I dont want to bother you too much.

Dont worry, that wont happen. Alright, what do you want to ask?

Simon briefly talked about the demonic disease.

He also didnt forget to mention that Sasha had erased the black spots on the children.

Gaias gaze momentarily rested on the baby in her arms.

Simon lightly tapped the table with his index finger and added his speculation.

Im not certain, but I think the demonic disease might be contamination caused by magic, rather than an actual illness.

It didnt respond to human medicine or magic but reacted to divine power.

Even if Sasha had magical power, it wasnt yet stabilized.

So, how did the child treat the other children?

The power Sasha naturally possessed, like magical power inherently embedded in the soul, was influenced by the power of the highest-ranking fairy, the Fairy Kings bloodline.

If Sasha had a special power, then everything could be explained.

I wonder if this Akan Cream is likely to spread demonic disease.

Suddenly, a small vial of Akan Cream floated up into Simons hand.

When Simon handed it to Gaia, she furrowed her brow as she looked at the vial on her palm.

Indeed I sense an unpleasant energy. Its weak, but very unpleasant.

In that case, as I suspected

Gaia nodded, as if agreeing.

Kalia, who was listening nearby, furrowed her brows.

With a pale and disgusted expression, she gritted her teeth.

So, thats it.

The reason was that Akan Cream, and it was Kalia herself who had obtained a large quantity of it.

It quickly healed minor wounds and was effective for stopping bleeding.

Thats why Kalia personally procured military supplies from the Prince of Akan for the soldiers during the war.

But to think that it was the demonic cream that made people so sick.

Probably, the products that came out in the early stages were genuine medical creams. Then, when rumors spread about their effectiveness, Akan probably switched them. Especially in the past few years, with the chaos of the war, they would have had even less attention to detail.

They took advantage of the moment when we let our guard down.

Thats right. Actually who would have thought of mixing magic into medicine? Even if someone had thought of it, actually making it would be even more challenging.

Yet, Akan managed to accomplish such a difficult and demanding task.

To be diligent even in such a wicked matter. And to have a sharp mind in such a subject.

A total crisis.

Moreover, they even succeeded in overturning the Rojas Empire with it.

Kalia recalled the imperial citizens tainted with magic that she saw earlier in the lords castle.

As she bit her lips until they hurt, Simon naturally approached her and gently caressed her lips.

With the touch of his fingertips, as if to say, Dont hurt, he softly stroked them.

A refreshing healing energy, as if infused with peppermint candy, seeped into her lips.

In an instant, Simon gazed satisfactorily at Kalias satisfied lips, then casually turned to Gaia and asked.

So, it seems Sasha truly possesses the power to purify magic.

The Fairy Kings lineage possesses the power to counteract magic. And since Sasha is of the royal bloodline, it is highly possible. However

Gaia raised her arms, holding Sasha, and lifted the child up to look at him.

Behind the child, the wings of a fairy sprouted, fluttering lightly.

Usually, that power can only be used after awakening But Sasha seems to have quite a strong power. Like imprinting on that little dragon as soon as it was born.

Worriedly, Gaia pulled Sasha closer as she considered the childs boundless potential.

If the power is great, the responsibilities that come with it are also significant. Sasha, our little one. We need to be fully prepared for the future.

Upon Gaias words, Kalia and Simon exchanged glances.

Without speaking, they understood each others hearts.

To ensure Sasha grows well, the two of them must make efforts together.

Simons hand, which had been lightly flicking, grasped Kalias hand and pulled it towards him.

With a reassuring gesture, their interlaced hands tightened firmly.

You guys should calm down a bit. Its embarrassing for me, you know? Pretending not to know also has its limits, you know.

Gaia, unable to bear it any longer, sighed and gave a subtle reproach to the two.

Kalia quickly withdrew her hand and scratched her cheek, but Simon simply smiled casually.

Oh, by any chance, is it possible to purify magic just through contact?

Simon casually threw the next question, and Gaia looked at him with eyes that truly found him shameless before shrugging her shoulders and answering.

No, its not like that. It depends on how strong the power is. Sometimes that power can be infused into weapons, or it can be spread like light.

Then, Sasha

However, no matter how great the power is, if the skill is lacking, its difficult. Probably, you need to be at the level of my father.

Skill wasnt something that could be pushed with the magnitude of power, so it meant that baby Sasha couldnt do it to that extent.

Simon, who was quietly stroking his chin, added.

So, if theres something or someone that can assist the power emitted by Sasha?

What do you mean?

If theres something like a being or an object that can help enhance the power emitted by Sasha, maybe the power of purification could be used properly even at this moment.

If thats possible Well, I guess it could be.

Hmm, Simon fell into deep thought for a moment while engrossed in his ideas, remaining silent.

In the meantime, Kalia, who had been listening all this time, interjected.

Then, by any chance, could I also possess the power to purify magic?

Gaia turned to her in response to Kalias words.

With wide-eyed surprise, Gaia nodded immediately, indicating a positive meaning.

Its possible, probably. But to be sure, I need my fathers power.

Kalia pondered with a reflective look in her eyes, and Gaia quickly spoke with a troubled expression.

But right now, its impossible to ask the fathers help. Well, its not that it cant be done, but it would be too difficult to call him.

What do you mean by that?

The fairies are incredibly busy right now. Disasters are flowing Im not sure of the details since Im in the elemental realm, but it seems something significant happened.

Kalia recalled the fire in the fairy forest.

And the betrayer of the forest that she had missed

That must be because of that incident.

He dared to harm the Primordial Tree, put the Queen of the Forest to sleep, and betrayed their own kind, the fairies.

As Kalia thought about it, she couldnt bring herself to dismiss it as a trivial matter.

Well, then well have to find a way to investigate ourselves.

Dont worry. Ill also think if theres anything I can do to help, Kalia.

Kalia smiled at Gaia, as if expressing her gratitude, looking at her face-to-face.

Gaia tilted her head and returned the smile even brighter than Kalia.

Every time Kalia saw Gaia smiling like that, she felt both happy and heavy-hearted.

Perhaps it was because she recalled the memory of her mother giving everything to protect her.

When would this pain be gone?

No, how could that pain of the past, which had already become history, be erased by any means?

You cant change the past.

Im fine.

Suddenly, Gaia spoke.

Startled, Kalia looked at her, Gaia smiled brightly and spoke again.

Dont you look at me that way because youre afraid Ill overdo it? Dont worry, Kalia. Even if I look like this, I am quite strong. The power of the Amuntia bracelet is stronger than you think.

At that moment, Simons head jerked up.

So, if the royal lineage can use that power, it means that Gaia also has the power of purification.

Of course. But my power isnt that strong

Gaia, who stretched out her words uncertainly, clapped her hands.

Oh, but now that Ive become the spirit of the bracelet, I must have become stronger! Amuntia was originally a spirit of the gods who opposed the demons.

Amuntia, the ancient spirit who stood with the gods during the Holy War and annihilated the demons.

If Gaia had received that power, there was no doubt that her power now was much stronger than before.

Do you know how much that power has increased?

Well I dont know until I actually try to use it.

As Kalia listened, something seemed to occur to her, and she grabbed Gaias wrist.

Then, lets test that power.

Huh? How?

Kalia smirked and looked at Simon.

Simon, take us there.

Where?

This time, even Simon couldnt understand Kalias intentions and asked.

Kalia pursed her lips and replied briefly.

To the lords castle.
