Inheriting a Lost Bloodline, My First Task is to have heirs?!-Chapter 424 - Familial Warmth

After the very emotional meeting with my father-in-law, Duke Ivan, we decided to only let the immediate family know about the fact that Ioannis was alive. My mother-in-law, Duchess Grace and my sister-in-law, Young Lady Iya, were called in immediately after the duke has calmed down a bit.

When the two women came in to the room and saw the duke’s red and puffy eyes, two pairs of questioning eyes landed on me immediately. I thought they were going to fight me then and there. My father-in-law quickly defended me to ease up the tension and explained what happened in detail.

In just a few minutes, instead of one person that needed calming down, I now have three people bawling their eyes due to sheer happiness and excitement of meeting a family member again. They thanked me profusely as if I was the one that pulled their son out from the mudslide years ago. Ioannis was already 22 when I met him, just to be clear.

Once they have all calmed down, I also told them that the other two children that they deemed were either missing or dead were also rescued by the people from the capital. I told them that the other boy is also an attendant in the Academe of Gnosis but as for the girl, I have to investigate further about her whereabouts.

They were surprised about this update and confirmation that the children were still alive. Though it was several years late, good news is still good news and it is some thing to be happy about. I told them that I have already paid for Ioannis’ freedom and if needed, I can also pay for the other man so he can come back to his family.

They thanked me profusely and assured me that they will let the family of that child know about this news discreetly. They assured me as well that the family of that boy were good people and they will not short change me. They will surely return the amount I paid through academe points to free their son in coins, no matter how much it would cost. This will be the same situation with the parents of the little girl as well.

I nodded my head in understanding and told them that I will send them some news soon once I hear about anything from my people in the capital and also from the academe’s grandmaster. They thanked me again and without warning I was enveloped in a tight group hug between my three new family members.

Before making my way to Kolyer, I also cam clean about the current status of Ioannis’ body and how I had no choice but to change him to be someone more similar to me to ensure that he stays healthy throughout his pregnancy. The duke immediately understood what I meant after remembering that I was a mystique.

He started crying while thanking me again. The Duchess Grace and Iya looked confused a bit so he explained to his wife and daughter what I meant in between sniffs and sobs. The other two were suprised about it and I can see the worry in their eyes. It was Iya that asked the million-dollar question.

She carefully asked me, "Is there a way that you can change me and my parents as well? We want to live happily together with my brother and your family for a very long time."

I smiled at the trio who looked nervous for some reason. I nodded my head and explained that there is a way and it will only take a few months to get it completed but their bodies might feel uncomfortable and even in pain at times during the process of changing them.

The three almost simultaneously said that they could endure it and they are very willing to go through the changes if it meant that the family will never part again. I chuckled and then told my sister-in-law out of the blue that she has to be careful about choosing her husbands in the future. She looked at me in confusion as I suddenly mentioned about her marriage because she is only 17 right now.

I laughed and responded, "I would also have to change the man or men you will marry or else, they will not live through their first pregnancy. The human body is not strong enough to give birth to a mystique child. The child will drain their father gradually from the inside until the man ends up dying. You have to choose wisely who you are willing to keep by your side and who is trustworthy enoughto share this little secret of ours with. Do you understand what I am saying?"

My sister-in-law stared at me with wide eyes, realization slowly showing in her face. She firmly nodded her head and faced her parents to tell them that she will definitely need their guidance in the future on picking people. My parents-in-law gave their younger daughter a doting smileand readily agreed to help her out when that time comes.

My sister then gasped and looked at me as if remembering something, surprising her parents. She then asked me a teasing question in a low voice though everybody heard it anyway, "Can you teach me how to make twins? Does it need a lot of hardwork or do I have to stay in the bedroom for a long time?"

My father-in-law immediately coughed and turned red from his daughter’s very specific question. My mother-in-law burst out laughing on the other side while my sister-in-law scratched her head, not understanding what seems to be wrong about what she was asking. Well, I get why she’s curious though.

I still answered her question as simple as I could and told her that my bloodline has a very high chance of producing twins so I really did not have to do anything special for it to happen. I also told her that unfortunately, working hard, doing it many times or for many consecutive days may not be enough to gain the results she wanted.

She sadly nodded her head and then a naughty smile appeared on her face. She then murmured, "Well, that’s just my luck. It doesn’t matter though. My husband just has to get pregnant twice then."

I laughed loud together with my mother-in-law this time. I guess my sister-in-law is the the type that is willing to do everything to get what she wants. She doesn’t even have prospective husbands yet and she is already requiring the unknown man to get pregnant twice for her.

I heard my mother-in-law laughing again and then she gave out her own teasing question, "Luna, do you think my husband and I can still have another child at our age?"

I was surprised at my mother-in-law’s question but I still gave her a knowing smile. I nodded my head and explained that once their bodies have completed the changes, it will fix all their healh issues and prolong their lifespans indefinitely. Since age has become unimportant, they can have children no matter how old they were though it may need more work given the fertility rates in this world.

My father-in-law stared at his wife in disbelief and I clearly saw how he scooted his bottom away from her on the cushioned chairs, trying to keep a distance from her. He then stuttered, "Wife... I... The children are already 23 and 17, isn’t it too late to... I mean..."

My mother-in-law looked at him fiercely and my father shrunk back reflexively. My mother then said, "You know that I always wanted to have a lot of children but our grief when we thought that our son died back then stopped us from having more children. Now that our son is alive, we can still continue that dream, right? What, are you unwilling? Should I get another husband and marry a younger man then?"

My father-in-law panicked as he almost screamed, "No! No way! I can do it! I can give birth to another child! I can do it even if its two or three more!"

My mother-in-law gave a triumphant smile to her husband and declared, "You are very adorable, my dear. You promised me three! I will surely do my best to make that happen." My father-in-law wanted to take back what he said but my mother-in-law will never let that happen. freёwebnoѵel.com

With that, their playful banter came to an end with my mother-in-law laughing and my father-in-law, speechless and blushing profusely. I can only laugh as this shy look is very similar to my husband when we first talked about having children.

I gave them the same pills I gave my other in-laws to facilitate the changes in their bodies. They all nodded in all seriousness and promised to keep this as a secret and drink the medicine as instructed for the next few months.

My sister-in-law also promised to let me know if she found someone to marry so she can get my approval. I was kind of confused since what I meant with the advice I gave was for her to find a man worthy enough to bring into her long life. It doesn’t really matter who they were and what their background was.

I looked at my parents-in-law and they signaled me through their eyes that I should just agree. I nodded at her and ruffled her hair with a doting smile.
