Strength 99999 but the Holy Sister

Madeleine looked to Tricia for help, but Tricia quickly shattered Madeleine's hopes.

"Actually, there's nothing I can do about it."

Tricia shook her head helplessly.

"The child in your belly has grown to a certain size. Due to the ritual, its condition is quite special, and its connection to you is very close. I can almost see your magical circuits in it... It's not difficult to get rid of it, but I'm not sure if I can completely eliminate it. Furthermore, taking action against her now will undoubtedly harm you. In the worst case, it may even damage your fertility."

After all, it was the work of the God of Wilderness, and the ritual itself was not that simple. Tricia did find it difficult to handle.

"It doesn't matter. I don't need those things that come with being a woman. As long as I can get rid of her, it will be fine. I need to pick up my sword again."

Madeleine said firmly.

She was quite open-minded. She would live her whole life for revenge. Whether she could leave offspring or not was not important to her at all - she had never felt attracted to any man until now, and she would never feel attracted to any man in the future.

"No, not yet—we have other means."

Tricia changed the subject and turned her gaze towards Aisha.

"Since it's the Star God who planted the seeds, then we should just go find her herself. Elsa, let the Star God come out."

"Star God?"

Madeleine was shocked.

"You brought her here?"

Madeleine always thought that the Star God had been killed by Elsa and Tricia, but now it seems that is not the case?

Elsa pulled out the jet-black straight sword from the ill-fitting scabbard at her waist. Madeleine recognized it at a glance as the black sacred straight sword that had been possessed by the star god and was found in the ruins.

Elsa placed the black sword horizontally on the table in front of the four people, and when she withdrew her hand, she tapped the sword lightly with her index finger.

"Hey, wake up."

Aisha said.

As soon as Aisha finished speaking, the black-haired little girl appeared in front of the four of them, sitting woodenly on the table, looking dazed as if she had just woken up - or rather, as if she had been knocked unconscious.

"Ah? She's a Star God?"

Madeleine's eyes widened - she realized then that she had met this guy once at Count Abruzzo's mansion.

"Let me ask her. Although she is a wild god, she hasn't learned much of our language yet."

After Tricia finished speaking, she fell silent, apparently starting a conscious communication with the Star God.

The Star God made a gurgling sound, covered his head, and looked at Madeleine with a strange expression.

"Ah? I didn't. My ritual failed, so how could she get pregnant? Don't think I'm not as powerful as Elsa and try to blackmail me. Even if I'm just an unknown little god, I'm still a god. There's no need for me to lie to you."

Charlie looked confused—she didn't understand why the Star God's mumbling became a coherent language in her mind.

"You... actually said something so irresponsible!"

Madeleine stared at the Star God with a very unfriendly look. He had caused her so much suffering and made her pregnant inexplicably. She hated him so much that her teeth were itching. If Tricia and Elsa were not here, and if she could not awaken the holy sword, she would have killed the Star God with one sword.

"Madeleine, calm down."

Tricia said.

Elsa was the only one present, feeling a little helpless as she listened to the Star God's mumblings, not knowing what he was saying.

And at this moment——

"Huh? Gurgle gurgle... No way, you're really pregnant?"

The Star God shook his head in confusion, then pointed at Madeleine with a look of surprise, which made Madeleine very angry.

"You guy!"

"Wait! I didn't mean to make you mad!"

Perhaps because she was worried about Elsa being here, the Star God was very restrained. She didn't attack directly after failing to convince her like last time. Instead, she explained: "That's not the seed I left behind. No, I mean, that's the seed I left behind, but it wasn't the result of my induction. My power was cut off long ago. Logically, it should have withered and died soon, and it shouldn't remain in your body..."

"What do you mean? Do you mean that after your power was withdrawn, some other power intervened and continued your ritual?"

Tricia frowned.

Indeed, if there is a mastermind behind all this, then with Madeleine's current strength, it is not impossible that someone will plot against her after she leaves the southern border.

"Let me see……"

The Star God stopped talking. She stared at Madeleine for a long time, and suddenly a look of understanding appeared in her eyes, along with a strange look of joy.

"Ah!~ I see, so that's how it is~!"

"what?"

Madeleine also calmed down and asked - although she wanted to stab this guy with a sword, but now Madeleine needed the Star God to solve her problem.

Tricia quietly waited for the Star God's answer.

Charlie also raised her chin curiously.

"The baby in your belly is obviously not mine," the Star God pointed at Madeleine's belly and laughed, then jumped down from the table and came to Elsa, "It's hers—"

She pointed at Elsa, and the three of them looked over at once.

Madeleine: “Huh??”

Tricia: “Hmm?”

Charlie's eyes widened, her mouth dropped open, and she jumped up in an instant: "Ah—!?"

Only Elsa had no idea what was going on and looked at the three of them in confusion.

"Why are you all looking at me—what's wrong with me?"

Tricia's expression changed from serious at the beginning to a strange one - she knew what Elsa had been doing during that time, and no matter how she thought about it, there was no reason to connect the person behind the scenes with Elsa. Moreover, Elsa was so powerful, how could she be the person behind the scenes? Tricia calmly guessed that there must be another reason for the Star God's instruction.

But Charlie didn't know all this. She just felt that everything happened so suddenly. She went from being stunned and bewildered to feeling resentful. But soon, she looked at Madeleine, who was sitting opposite her with a confused look on her face, with a smile on her face, and held Madeleine's hand enthusiastically.

"It's okay. Although I'm a little jealous that you're ahead of me, Charlie thinks it'd be nice to have another sister. Can I call you Sister Madeleine from now on? Also," Charlie said, feeling a little embarrassed, "I really want to know how you did it..."

"How did you do that..."

"That's... this..."

"what?"

Tricia couldn't help but laugh, but she didn't say anything. Instead, she asked the Star God through her consciousness, "Your words are truly misleading. Please explain what's going on. - And by the way, don't set your sights on that child."

Tricia knew that the Star God had always coveted Elsa's blood, so the Star God showed such an expectant expression just now.

Sure enough, the Star God hung his head in despair.

451. Fast and Secure (4K7)

The Star God felt that he was the most innocent one.

The fetus in Madeleine's body had nothing to do with her - at least, after the "seed" she left behind withered, everything that happened afterwards was definitely not her doing, and she herself didn't even understand why things turned out this way.

Except for the huge amount of energy used in the initial creation and nurturing of the seed, which was indeed taken from her, the flesh and blood used as the base all came from Madeleine, from the divine blood power in Madeleine's body. The star god refined and awakened it, and finally gave birth to a seed without a "father" but only a "mother".

This seed originally existed as the reincarnation of the Star God. In order to ensure the integrity and purity of the bloodline of the God, the Star God did not interfere too much with it after planting it. Logically speaking, if there was no external intervention, the bloodline of this child should have been completely Madeleine's own.

In other words, in terms of blood relationship, Madeleine is both the mother and the "father" of the fetus.

But now it was different. The Star God could no longer understand the tiny, pure life in Madeleine's belly - even though the seed of life was created by her. But now, beneath the abundant vitality of the fetus there was a faint breath flowing that made her feel unfamiliar. That breath belonged neither to the Star God's power nor to Madeleine. It had completely merged into Madeleine's body and into the seed, severing the last connection between the seed and the Star God. The seed no longer belonged to the Star God, but was assimilated by that mysterious breath.

Even the life level of the seed has changed. In the eyes of the Star God, it is so perfect. If it could choose, it would definitely want to occupy that body.

But unfortunately, she knew it was just a delusion.

The Star God explained to Tricia everything he had seen.

The breath in the "seed" was very weak, very faint, and very hidden, almost impossible to identify from the outside. Because of this, Tricia, the guardian of the World Tree, could not see any clues.

The reason why the Star God could sense the existence of that breath was only because she understood her own magic and her own creations. Even though the seed had been completely cut off from her, she could still see the current state of the fetus through Madeleine's abdomen.

That was Elsa's breath. The Star God, who was always by Elsa's side, believed he wouldn't be wrong.

"...Even so, I don't know why the 'seed' that should have 'died' would 'sprout' again, and I don't know why Elsa's power appeared in this way..."

The Star God said to Tricia, with innocence written all over his face.

"I suspect it's closely related to the pendant around the hero's neck. I sensed the same pure power from it: the magic of holy light, abundant vitality, and a touch of Elsa's aura. Even now, that thing is still injecting strength into the hero. If it weren't for it, with the 'seed' growing wildly and absorbing power without restraint, the hero's limited strength wouldn't have been able to sustain it until now. Of course, if it weren't for the cross, she wouldn't have gotten pregnant."

Star God and Tricia were communicating through consciousness, so no one else could hear what they were saying.

Tricia glanced at Aisha.

"This is just your speculation."

"This is a reasonable inference," the Star God said with great conviction. "If you don't believe it, you can easily verify it by taking a drop of fetal blood. This shouldn't be difficult for you, right?"

Indeed, theoretically it is not difficult. It is just a matter of verifying the kinship. It can be done by taking a drop of fetal blood and a drop of "father", or in other words, the blood of another mother Elsa. Although no one can manipulate Elsa's blood through magic, you just have to wait for the breath in Elsa's blood to dissipate. Overall, it only takes a little longer and the difficulty is indeed not high.

But the problem is that Tricia has actually accepted the Star God's explanation in her heart, and this has led to a new concern - no matter what the reason is, if the fetus in Madeleine's body is really Elsa's offspring, what should she do?

On one side was a hero, and on the other, the strongest being in human history, at least in Tricia's knowledge. So what should be done with this child? Keep him, or get rid of him? Could the decision really be so simple?

Moreover, Elsa is a devout nun, which makes the situation even more complicated.

Besides, the brave Madeleine also needs to be carefully considered - getting a win-win result is probably not that easy.

Tricia began to hesitate, looking at Madeleine, Elsa and Charlie thoughtfully. At this time, Elsa had already figured out what was going on from Charlie, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward - Elsa and Madeleine looked at each other, Madeleine lowered her head to avoid looking at her, and Elsa also rarely looked at Tricia for help.

Even Elsa, who always seemed very reliable, the mature and steady Elsa who didn't match her youthful appearance, showed such a look. Tricia suddenly felt that Elsa looked particularly lovely now.

"This should just be a misunderstanding... Madeleine, don't worry, Tricia will figure out the situation."

Although Elsa had no idea what was going on, she still offered words of comfort.

"Thank you for your concern, Aisha, I'm fine..."

Madeleine tried her best to look less awkward and smiled, but she didn't know what to say. Being comforted by the child's "father", or another mother, with words like "Don't worry, maybe this isn't our child" sounded strange... Madeleine felt as if her heart was inexplicably stabbed.

But in fact, faced with this incredible situation, Tricia had no good solution for the time being.

However, Tricia still briefly explained the Star God's speculation to everyone.

"...Anyway, this is what happened. Although it's a little unbelievable, the culprit might not be the Star God. No, it's more accurate to say that the intersection of all these coincidences has led to a direction none of us anticipated. Madeleine, perhaps it was the cross Elsa gave you that led to everything that happened today..."

After Tricia finished speaking, the expressions of Elsa and Madeleine became even more interesting - the cross was given by Elsa, and Madeleine was flattered when she received it. Their starting points were good and happy, but the development of things was not funny.

Elsa was silent, and Madeleine was extremely embarrassed.

As a hero, she was clearly a virgin, but she suddenly became pregnant. The "father" of the child was actually the Holy Sister, who she had only met a few times and had not had much interaction with.

Madeleine's hands were twisted together under the table - facing Elsa, who was actually the "father of the child", or "another mother", Madeleine felt extremely embarrassed.

"I'm sorry... I didn't expect things to turn out like this..."

Elsa thought about it, then stood up and apologized to Madeleine - at least in Elsa's opinion, if she hadn't given the cross, Madeleine wouldn't have encountered such a thing.

However, Elsa's action startled Madeleine - she quickly stood up, her straight posture revealing her helplessness and nervousness.

"No, no, how can I blame you..."

Madeleine was not someone who could not tell right from wrong. She quickly grabbed Elsa's hand, fearing that Elsa would apologize to her again or something. But as soon as she touched Elsa's warm and soft fingers, Madeleine immediately shrank back in embarrassment - she suddenly realized that her actions were a little too intimate for them, who were already unexpectedly husband and wife.

After all, they are not real wives.

However, although it was only a momentary touch, Madeleine found that Elsa's hands were really warm and soft. She was such a powerful person, but she was completely different from her - Madeleine's own hands were covered with calluses, rough and coarse, and her palms were covered with sweat and sticky because of nervousness and embarrassment. It must be uncomfortable to touch. Compared to her hands, only Elsa's hands were worthy of such a beautiful and clean face.

Madeleine was stunned—she suddenly realized that she was staring at Elsa's face in a daze.

She quickly looked away again.

Elsa was silent, and Madeleine was speechless.

It was obviously not the first time that I had physical contact with Elsa, but that moment just now made me feel particularly nervous.

It’s over.

Just because there was a baby in her belly, Madeleine found that she was no longer herself.

If it were just an ordinary time, Madeleine would definitely not think so much about all these messy things - do women need to be so particular about each other? She and Timmer never felt awkward just touching hands.

But now it feels different.
