Chapter 705 Birth
-----
Axitl was facing difficulties, she was going through some challenges by trying to get our baby out. It seems that it was a bit stuck, and she had to push harder to the point of slightly tearing herself apart.
"Hahhh...! Ugh..."
I tried using all the spells I could possibly conjure to low her pain reaction, but this pain was so deep it barely could do anything for her. However, at the very least, I constantly infused her with Chaos Energy, which was like life energy for a normal living being/god. As she's composed primarily of miasma and chaos, this is like giving her a lot of stamina and energy, so she had been keeping up with it for a while. However, when something, the tip of it finally came out, we were able to see that it was a conventional baby…
What emerged was… an eggshell, a purple-colored eggshell with black stripes, it wasn't a baby- I mean, it was, but with the egg still stuck to it for some reason! Axitl said it was impossible for her to break the eggshell, it was incredibly hard, and I was scared that if I broke it, an underdeveloped fetus could come out and that would only be bad for us, so we had both to endure with it and get the egg out.
I had to pull it for her, and this would only be more painful, but there's only this way, after it is finally out, I will heal her back.
"Axitl, this is going to hurt a lot but I think the only way to get them out is by… pulling the egg..." I said.
"Oohh… Ahh… I-It's going to hurt, isn't it?" She cried.
"Yes, dear, it's going to hurt, but you've fought against stronger beings before, right? I am pretty sure you can endure laying your child's egg, right?" Asked Gwendolyn.
"I-I think I can endure… Yeah! I can! I-I am going to be a mama too… So I must endure and be strong…!" Said Axitl, filling herself with motivation and strength to give birth.
"I will help you as much as I can!" Said Gwendolyn.
"I'll pull it, slowly…" I said
I quickly put my hands over the egg. It was warm and rather hard-shelled, the eggshell was probably an incredibly hard material that I had never seen before, we had to be careful with it so no weird things could happen to it, we had to endure this challenge together and finish this as fast as we could so Axitl doesn't go through more pain.
Using my magic, I adhered my fingers to the egg shell, pulling I away strongly, without having to damage the eggshell either. Using all my force I began pulling it, the strong walls wrapping around the egg from Axitl were not letting it pass through so easily, especially because the egg was around the size of a watermelon, so it was fairly big and just as easy!
"Ooooggh… P-Please… hurry!"
Axitl cried once more as I forcefully pulled the egg out of her after trying out for over five minutes, a loud "POP" sound of her own body finally getting rid of such a big egg resonated, her lower part slowly began to regenerate, but she felt almost unconscious after I finally managed to get it out.
<br/>"Ugh… Aaagh… Hahh…"
I looked at the egg, it was warm and healthy, so I quickly moved towards Axitl and gave it to her, she seemed to hug it, kissing it even, as she suddenly wrapped some clothes around it.
"Phew… I-It is a bit anticlimactic but I am sure it will hatch soon, it seems quite developed." She said in between sighs of exhaustion, as I healed her using chaos magic and the high quantity of chaos attribute particles I possessed, she was healing rather quickly through such methods, but she was still quite exhausted so I had to try my best to comfort her and let her have a nice rest for now.
"But this is incredible though! I had never seen that an egg would come out… Are you a bird?" Wondered Gwendolyn while half-joking.
"I-I am not a bird! I guess I should tell you how this ended happening…" Said Axitl.
"Huh? What?"
At the end, we told Gwendolyn how Axitl ate the egg and all… It was quite a bit of a surprise to see Gwendolyn surprised more than anything else, she didn't seemed mad or anything.
"Well, this is surprising… But it happened so long ago, I guess we can't really do anything over it." She said. "It will soon be a year since Alexander was born and some of the girls are still pregnant, the time a child is pregnant varies a lot, and perhaps some of these girls just got pregnant a few months ago, it wasn't completely confirmed when Frank did it for the first time with each one… Maybe we'll get a rush of babies soon. I think Cathyl might give birth soon enough, seeing how she is also a beast-kin that get fertilized easily and give birth quickly…"
"I-I see… I will try to help her out as much as I can as well…" I sighed. "But this egg… It is… quite cute, indeed." I said with a smile, looking at this adorable egg filled my heart with happiness. I felt like kissing it as well, and I gave it a small kiss and caressed it gently with my hand. However, without realizing it, I felt as if the egg drained a large quantity of divine energy from me when I touched it, as it began to overflow with enormous quantities of divine energy that it formed a dark and cosmic aura around it… Incredible, just what's going on now?!
FLAAAASH!
"Uwaaaahh! F-Frank did you gave the egg your energy?!" Asked Axitl.
"No! It drained it from me…" I said.
"N-No way, the egg absorbed the energy necessary to hatch now…!" Said Axitl. "I-It's actually hatching very soon! Uwaaaah!"
Axitl began to panic, as our child was about to hatch from its egg, slowly yet steadily breaking the eggshell!
Crack… crack!
