More than a month passed in the blink of an eye.
On this particur day, aboard the floating ship known as the Atntis, most of the embers of the Fallen Angel Pirates had gathered in the castle’s grand hall.
Even individuals such as Lily, Lillian, Linlin, Tsuru, Moss, Rock, Stussy, Afar, Hajrudin, the Lady Demon Irene, and Cyril Oka were waiting anxiously.
“Waa… Waa…”
The cries of newborns echoed from the corridor.
“Are they born?” Linlin, Lily, Stussy, and several others wideheir eyes iement and rushed toward the birthing room’s door.
Even Afar, a fellow Lunarian, couldn’t help but smile. “Our tribe is about to gain two new members, isn’t it?”
Undoubtedly, El—their cousin and leader—was steadily achieving his ambitious goal. Perhaps the Lunarian race might truly experience a resurgen the future.
“They’re out!”
As the doors opened, everyone’s faces lit up with joy. El, Nef, Dr. Kureha, Tethys, Gerd, and two giantesses emerged from the room.
Gerd, the new mother, showed no signs of fatigue. Thanks to her Soul-Soul Fruit’s extraordinary healing abilities, she looked eid full of vitality, entirely unlike someone who had just given birth.
What captured everyone’s attention, however, were the two babies in El’s and Gerd’s arms.
Born with wings, these chubby, adorable infants had physiques far beyond those of normal human newborns. They looked like giant babies—without the typical wrinkled, fragile appearance of the newly born. Instead, they were lively, spirited, and remarkably robust.
Their skin tone, influenced by both El and Gerd’s giant ary, differed from the traditional brown plexion of the Lunarians. With rge, sparkling eyes and delicate features, they were undeniably charming.
“Wow!”
“They’re so cute!”
Linlin and Lily’s eyes shoh excitement. They rushed fently taking the babies from El and Gerd’s arms.
“Mama-mama-mama, little one, I’m your Mama Linlin!”
“And I’m y sister Lily—wait, no, your Auntie! Hehe!”
“Linlin, Lily, you two be careful!” Tsuru cautioned, her eyelids twitg at the sight of their awkward attempts to hold the infants. Their clumsy movements made everyone anxious. “Don’t hurt the babies!”
“Don’t worry, they’re not that fragile,” El said calmly, unbothered by the chaos.
How could his children be ordinary? Even though they couldn’t speak yet, their Lunarian and giant bloodlines grahem extraordinary physical resilience.
“Tsk tsk, I’ve never seen babies crawl as soon as they’re born!” excimed Dr. Kureha, marveling in amazement. At this rate, she suspected, they might even start walking in a few days.
“Hehehe, these siblings are far beyond ordinary giant children!” said Tethys, who had assisted in the birth. She was equally astonished.
“Of course! You should know whose children they are,” Gerd said proudly, her head held high and a smile brimming with maternal pride.
“Siblings? So that means this little one is the sister?” Holding the smaller baby wriggling in her arms, Linlin’s heart melted with affe. She turo El, her excitement clear: “El Onii, have you chosen names for the twins?”
“Hehe, if you haven’t decided yet, I help!” Lily chimed in, teasing the baby in her arms as her face lit up with joy.
“I wouldn’t dare leave that to you…” Gerd lightly tapped Lily’s head, taking the baby back with a smile. “El and I have already decided. The brother will be hor, and the sister will be named Sif!”
“Oh? Sif, huh?” Linlin raised an eyebrow, then chuckled. “Hehe, that’s a great choice!”
At that moment, the infant in Linlin’s arms, clearly unfortable, male free.
“Fp!”
With a sudde of her wings, she soared into the air, flying straight to the person she instinctively reized as soon as her eyes opened—her father, El.
“Ooh…ya ya…”
Her tiny mouth quivered as if about to cry, her expression full of grievance. But once El caught her in mid-flight, her face broke into a cheerful smile.
“Huh?”
Not only Linlin, but everyone else was stuhese twins were clearly anything but ordinary; it was evident they would grow up to be extraordinarily powerful.
“Mama-mama-mama, as expected of El Onii’s children!” Linlin excimed, regaining her posure and grinning widely. “This little one is going to be an absolute powerhouse someday!”
“Hehehe, no doubt about it!” Hajrudin boomed proudly. “They’re destio be rulers of the giants!”
Although Hajrudin himself had the qualifications to vie for the title of King of the Giants, he had aowledged his own limits long ago. The petition was simply too fierce.
“Even if they don’t i the steel-like physique of the Lunarians, I’m sure their potential won’t fall short!” El said, gently ping Sif’s round, delicate cheeks. He khat he himself hadn’t been born with his steel-like body; it had developed as he grew. He trusted that his children would be no different.
Their remarkable determination to break free from Linlin’s arms, even though she wasn’t holding them tightly, hi their immeential.
El and Gerd had pced high hopes on their children. Borrowing names from the gods of hology, they had chosen “Thor” and “Sif” for the twins.
However, El wasn’t in any hurry to give them the devil fruits he had prepared. Their minds were too immature to handle such powers responsibly. He po wait until they were at least three years old. Any earlier, and there was a risk of them losing trol—falling into the sea, spewing fire, or releasiricity without restraint, causing harm or chaos.
“Lillian, your due date should be in just a few months, right?” Linlin asked, her excitement tangible and tinged with envy. She couldn’t wait to grow up and have children of her own someday.
“Hehe, about four or five months left!” Lillian replied, nodding with a happy smile. Her belly had already grown noticeably.
After seeing the incredible potential of Gerd’s twins, even Lillian, who had never beeo pete for attentio a surge of anticipation. As a member of the uhree-Eye Tribe, she possessed an ialent for swordsmanship—something even El had aowledged. sidering the child she carried was of Lunarian dest, there was no doubt in her mind that her own child would be exceptional as well.
