The Wicked Female Is Wild and Scheming, Living in a Love Battlefield Every Day-Chapter 427 - 322: Childbirth (Part 2)

In an instant, knowing it was time, her face changed slightly, "She’s going into labor."

It was the same last time Luna gave birth; it must be true this time as well.

Malachi was completely stunned, his wild and unrestrained handsome face utterly blank, "This... she’s going to give birth now? Here?"

Zeke had a look like he was struck by lightning, "How can you give birth in this godforsaken place? We don’t know how to deliver babies! Plus, we have nowhere to boil hot water."

"It’s definitely too late to go back; I’ll go find a cave."

Rhys reacted quickly. After speaking, he turned to Zeke, "Hurry and find some dry grass, we’ll need it later. Remember to clean it thoroughly."

Zeke didn’t hesitate and quickly went to find dry grass.

His gaze then turned to Malachi, "Go find a suitable big rock, hollow out the center, and shape it like a stone pot for boiling water. Be quick, and remember to carve a wooden basin."

"Okay, got it."

Seeing there was work to be done, Malachi felt less panicked and quickly transformed into the Abyssal Demon Wolf, hurrying to find stone and carve out a stone pot.

Rhys and Soren didn’t idle either, starting to look for a suitable cave around them.

Jago instinctively ran to gather firewood.

Luna Sutton leaned against Kian Sterling’s embrace, her face deathly pale, quickly instructing the system to activate the sounds of all things in heaven and earth.

She wanted to know where there might be a suitable cave.

Otherwise, if Rhys and Soren were left to search slowly, it would be too late.

Instantly, countless chaotic noises surged into her mind.

"Oh dear, look, that female is about to give birth."

"Wuwu... so painful, that three-headed six-eyed monster broke my back."

"So many strong auras, scary."

"To the east, there’s a warm and dry cave, with a crooked tree at the entrance."

"The water in the small stream west is cleaner."

"A millennium-old Lingzhi grows under the big banyan tree in the forest to the left."

...

Luna Sutton endured the intense pain of contractions, cold sweat streaming down her forehead, quickly filtering through the information.

"Kian, there’s a dry cave to the east, in front of a crooked tree, quickly take me there."

"Corbin, go to the small stream to the west for water, it’s cleaner."

She gritted her teeth and issued a series of direct orders.

Kian said nothing, immediately cradling Luna Sutton in his arms, turning swiftly to head toward the cave beyond the crooked tree to the east.

Rhys and Soren quickly turned back and followed behind.

Corbin went to fetch water.

Fortunately, the cave wasn’t far, and Kian soon arrived there with her.

Rhys promptly cleared the cave, shaking out the dry grass that Zeke brought and spreading it evenly over the drier part of the cave.

He seemed worried she might catch a chill, so he layered more dry grass over it, finally placing Soren’s Fiery Red Feather Robe as a cushion on top. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Kian gingerly laid Luna Sutton on the prepared stack of grass, his expression full of worry, "Luna, are you okay?"

He had no idea how to deliver a baby and was completely lost about what to do, his nerves tying him in knots.

Luna Sutton was in severe abdominal pain; after her water broke, the contractions were coming more and more frequently.

Last time she had taken the system’s reward of a Painless Childbirth Pill, so the birth hadn’t felt significant.

This time, without the Painless Childbirth Pill, she realized just how painful childbirth truly was.

The pain was so intense that she had no strength to speak, her face ashen, sweat covering her head, it felt like sheer torture.

"Go find something to block the cave mouth, to prevent cold wind from coming in."

After speaking, Luna Sutton looked at Rhys, "You’ll deliver for me, you watched last time, you should have some experience."

Rhys was momentarily dumbfounded; he indeed watched last time, but the delivery was done by the tribe’s elder female, he could never do that.

"Alright, I’ll try."

He gritted his teeth to agree, though inside he was a bundle of nerves.

In the wild, there was no option to find an experienced elder female, they’d just have to handle it themselves.

A fire quickly blazed in the cave, and Malachi’s finished stone pot was placed above it, with water boiling inside.

Next to it stood a large wooden basin Malachi had carved out; though it looked a bit ugly, at least it could hold water.

Kian chopped down several sturdy trees, shaved them smooth, tied them tight with vines to fashion a door to block the mouth of the cave.

Instantly cutting off the cold wind pouring into the cave mouth.

With the fire burning, the cave promptly warmed up.

Luna Sutton swiftly took out scissors and animal skins from her system backpack, items she would need soon.

She also produced a pack of anti-inflammatory powder, something she’d stored for emergencies in her backpack.

They might need it later.

She looked over to Corbin, "Help me... lift my waist, scissors... cut the umbilical cord, remember to clean it, sprinkle the powder afterward."

Hearing he had something to do, Corbin felt grounded, less panicked, and seriously took note of the instructions.

Thankfully, having watched Luna’s previous delivery, he wasn’t entirely lost.

Mael Valerius and Soren Phoenix, who hadn’t experienced females giving birth, were utterly panicked, their hands trembling, completely at a loss for what to do.

"Mael Valerius, you should go out."

Zeke, sweating profusely from stoking the fire, looked up at the bewildered Mael Valerius, thinking he was no longer Luna’s Beast Husband, staying here was really inappropriate.

Mael Valerius acted like he didn’t hear, not showing any intention to leave, nervously pacing back and forth.

"Go out."

Corbin frowned, looking at him coldly, "You’re no longer Luna’s partner, do you think it’s appropriate for you to stay here?"

The firelight flickered inside the cave, casting Luna Sutton’s pallid face in shadow.

She bit her lip, cold sweat beading at her temples, her fingers clutching tightly to the animal skin beneath her.

"Ah—"

A wave of intense pain surged over her, causing her to involuntarily arch her body.

Mael Valerius abruptly pushed Corbin aside, kneeling on one knee beside Luna Sutton, "I can help."

Rhys squeezed in with a stern face, "Do you know how to deliver a baby?"

"No."

Mael Valerius admitted straightforwardly, but stubbornly held Luna Sutton’s hand, "But I can give her strength."

Luna Sutton was in so much pain she was on the verge of blacking out, sensing the warmth emanating from his palm, she unconsciously gripped tighter.

Mael Valerius’s palm was broad and warm, suffused with a reassuring strength.

"Let him be."

She spoke weakly, "There’s no time left..."

Zeke snorted but didn’t obstruct further.

He quickly poured the hot water into the wooden basin, skillfully wringing out the animal skin, "Rhys, get ready to deliver the baby."
