I Picked Up a Witch With Amnesia - I Picked Up a Witch With Amnesia chapter 152

14. End of lingering – 15

“Woo, woo-”

As Iris stared at the sight of her gagging as if she couldn’t stand the nausea, all the people gathered at this place had expressions on their faces as if they had mixed emotions.

Anticipation, anxiety, nervousness, joy, and despair—

It is Iris who has a body that has reached the level of a Master. All I could say was that the chances of him gagging over and over again, just because he was sick to his stomach, were extremely low.

They didn’t say anything out of their mouths, but it wasn’t like they didn’t have a clue as to why a woman the size of Iris was gagging. Because there was no one here who didn’t know what Cain and Iris were up to in the system several months ago.

‘…Come to think of it, how much time has passed?’

As Cain calmly counted the numbers in his head, he realized that roughly three months had passed since he intermingled with her on the terrace.

In terms of years alone, it is a little over a hundred days. Judging by the timing or by the length of time, Cain was certain that his guess was correct.

…it must have been. It was clear that Iris was suffering from morning sickness.

“…..”

“…..”

“…..”

For a moment, there was only cold silence in the hall. While everyone was hesitant about what to say and how to react, the first woman to come to her senses and walk toward Iris was none other than that.

“Lowering. If you don’t mind, would it be okay for me to observe the state of degradation?”

It was Ariel.

“…You mean?”

Unexpectedly, Iris did not show displeasure toward Ariel. From Iris to Ariel, there was only one emotion, doubt.

“Well, thank you for taking care of my condition, but aren’t you a clergyman to the end? As far as I know, the divine power used by priests is a way to maximize the resilience of the human body itself, so I know that priests who have detailed knowledge about the structure of the human body are very rare.”

Iris looked at Ariel and said that in a timid voice.

In fact, the question Iris had could only be expressed as valid. In this day and age, even if a person gets sick or gets injured, nine out of ten cases can be healed with divine power. And it’s not that difficult either. If the patient is ill, it is just a matter of pouring divine power into the whole body, and if it is injured, it is just a matter of concentrating the divine power on the injured part.

As a result, there were many cases in which priests did not know about the structure of the human body even though they were the best doctors of this era. Although it is possible to cure almost all diseases, it is said that he was ignorant of how the disease occurred and what the reason was.

“Do not worry. For personal reasons, I also studied hard in medicine. At least, I am confident that I can determine whether or not there is something wrong with the lower body right here and now.”

There is no lie in Ariel’s words. Because she had a history of studying medicine diligently as a priest because of ‘personal circumstances’ in the past.

Ariel was a priest with the greatest divine power on earth, and at the same time a doctor with extensive medical knowledge.

“…if you’re so confident. I will allow the treatment.”

Even though they once fought to the death with themselves, Iris kindly allows Ariel to be treated.

…Perhaps, even though she knows very well that she may really be pregnant with Cain’s child, Iris can’t find any hesitation about the fact that she entrusts her body to Ariel.

Is it the boldness she possesses as a princess of the empire, or is it the calculation that Ariel will not be able to use any numbers while Cain is clearly watching them?

“…Then, let me be rude for a moment.”

Ariel knelt down right in front of Iris and quietly sat down, then placed her hand on her belly and carefully poured the divine power into it.

ugh-

Ariel’s hand, which is placed on her lower stomach, begins to glow softly with white light. It was Ariel’s unique method of operating divine power, not for the purpose of healing wounds, but for the purpose of penetrating the inside of the body and contemplating its flow.

“…..”

At the same time as the divine power gently embraced Iris’ belly, Ariel felt that ‘something’ was being sensed on her fingertips. I could feel it very clearly. Responding to the wave of divine power emitted by Ariel, he succeeded in detecting something wriggling inside her belly.

wiggle-

It is felt. As if the waves of divine power tickling her were having fun, she tossed and turned her body very slightly. Currently, there was something in Iris’ lower abdomen, that is, inside the womb, that sensed the wave of divine power and wriggled.

To put it in a word, it means that a single life was presently located in her womb. In the world, what is the name of the state in which life resides in a woman’s womb?

‘…Pregnant.’

In an instant, Ariel’s fingertips, which were stroking Iris’ stomach, stopped with a jolt.

Alas, yes. it finally happened What he was so concerned about and worried so much about happened. A woman other than himself became pregnant with Cain’s child. She left herself alone and became pregnant with his child before herself.

…There was no room for doubt. This was not the first time he had felt this sensation of the seeds of life sprouting at his fingertips. In the past, Ariel had experienced a sensation similar to this only once. It was the story of when she was pregnant with Cain’s child.

This time, the only difference from the past was that it was a sensation he felt in the belly of another woman, not his own.

“…ah.”

Ariel’s hand, which was touching Iris’s lower belly, was unknowingly strained.

As the surroundings seemed to lack oxygen, I gasped for breath.

Yes. he had failed On that day, fearing that such an unfortunate incident would occur, he hit the princess’ belly as hard as possible, but despite her efforts, the princess succeeded in taking away his child. If not, the blow that Ariel inflicted that day had unwillingly helped Crystal.

…but, but it’s not too late. It’s not too late. I don’t know what kind of confidence it was, but Iris was currently allowing herself the upper part of the womb unprotected.

Moreover, Iris does not know that she is pregnant. From the looks of it, it seems that he is vaguely guessing, but he is not in a state of being certain.

So, there is a way. There is a very simple solution to this damn situation.

‘…just kill it.’

yes, you can kill it If it was Ariel and no one else, it would be possible. If she puts her mind to it now, there are literally infinite ways to get rid of the fetus without the knowledge of mice or birds.

If Iris’s womb was stimulated even slightly with a penetrating technique, the child would be stillborn right away. Even Iris, who had reached the level of a Master, would have vomited blood from that power, but it’s impossible for a fetus to endure at all.

…No, there was no need to use the cumbersome ‘violence’. If the divine power that is now pouring into Iris’ belly is concentrated toward the fetus, the fetus will destroy itself in an instant due to the oversupplemented nutrition and vitality. Ariel also had memories of being terrified that her divine power would harm the fetus when she was pregnant.

Ariel’s fingertips were trembling very slightly, but definitely. All sorts of enticing plans were spinning in her head. The preparation is difficult, but the execution is very easy. If, right now, she makes up her mind to do so, the fetus that Iris is carrying will surely be-

“…..”

Yes, he is the only woman who can have children with him. In the past, present, and future, the only person who can be called the mother of his child is himself. If it was Ariel, no one else, she was qualified to say such a thing.

It’s a very simple thing, and I’m confident that no one here will find out. All you have to do is put a little bit of force on your fingertips. Get your head right, Ariel Thiers. Weren’t you the child’s mother? Didn’t you promise to do anything for your child? If that’s the case, then it’s clear what you need to do here-

“…Lowering.”

Finally, Ariel was able to let go of her hand, gently pressing down on Iris’ belly. The decision was made in an instant. It was only then that she realized that as long as she was the mother of a child, there was only one thing she could do in this place.

“What is it, Ariel? Could it be that this is not a good thing?”

Ariel shakes her head from side to side while silently facing Iris’ blue eyes as she asks a question in a worried voice.

“…A child, a child.”

“…Child?”

Ariel spat out those words with her own mouth. No, I had to spit it out.

“…You seem to have a child. I think it must be morning sickness.”

…In the end, Ariel couldn’t do anything. She was also a mother. He also had a child who had a stomach ache and was healed. There was a child whom I cherished more than anything in the world.

At most, it was unacceptable to harm a life that was just about to grow because of one’s own petty selfishness.

I could do anything to eliminate any possibility, but I could never kill a completed life.

…Moreover, this child growing in her belly was also Cain’s child.

Even though the ship is different, it was impossible for Ariel to do something with Cain’s child with her own hands.

Because she, too, was a mother of a child before she was a woman.

“…Pregnant?”

Ariel’s words made Iris’ face harden for a moment. However, that’s for a while.

“…Pregnant. Cain and mine, baby.”

With a dazed look on her face, she quietly placed her hand on top of her belly and then very carefully stroked it. one time, two times, three times. Iris gently and carefully stroked her lower belly with a careful hand movement that was incomparable to anything she had done before. As if stroking a treasure that will never exist again in the world.

“…Cain.”

Iris cautiously called Cain’s name with a voice as if something would break at any moment.

“…yes, lower.”

“Come here, come and see. see you soon hurry.”

As Cain crouched toward Iris, Iris forcibly grabbed his right hand and gently placed it on the upper part of her lower abdomen.

“…ah.”

“…do you feel it? They say they have a child. The fruit of your love and mine is growing right here.”

…it was felt. I couldn’t really feel it, but I could definitely feel something nonetheless. In this place where he was holding hands, he could clearly feel that the heartbeat of life was beating.

“…it’s warm.”

The feeling that a life is conceived in one’s own body. Indeed, it was clear that it was a mysterious feeling that could not be expressed in words.

Especially if it is a child of a loved one.

“It is a very strange feeling. that i become a mother Originally, I would not have known a man until 10 years later, but to think that I became a mother at such a young age.”

Saying that, Iris smiled brightly as if she was truly happy.

“Cain, would you please share a promise with me?”

“…what do you mean?”

To Cain’s question, Iris quietly opened her mouth in a very small and faint voice.

“I will love you. Please love me and this child very much. I love you, and love this child as much as you love me. Just like an idiot, love this child unselfishly. That is all I want from you.”

After saying that, Iris whispered very quietly into Cain’s ear.

“Thank you, Cain. For making me a mother.”

Cain and Iris overlapped their hands and gently placed them on her belly.

At this moment, it is clear that the two of them will be very happy. Because at one time, she was very happy, just like Iris now. Having a child of someone you love has such a meaning.

…and me?

Cain, what kind of expression should I make when I look at you now? Looking at that woman, what kind of words should I come up with?

I, too, was once your wife.

It was the child’s mother.

Ariel, without realizing it, carefully touched her slender belly.

Naturally, she couldn’t find any trace of life in it.

That fact made Ariel sad.

…that too, a lot.
