I looked at my sister with a clear expression of consternation.
Although this method has been widely practiced and celebrated to break reproduction limits, there are only a few thousand worlds that possess this type of method.
It differs significantly from the depictions found in the Abo novels. For instance, the terms 'female' and 'male' are replaced by 'Alpha,' 'Beta,' and 'Omega,' similar to the novels.
However, unlike those fictional accounts, individuals can voluntarily choose to employ these methods.
Nevertheless, there is an age limit of 100 years before diffusion occurs. After reaching this threshold, no cultivator can become an Alpha, Beta, or Omega.
This technique is initiated when a couple mutually agrees to utilize it.
Alpha individuals gain enhanced physical strength and superior intelligence, while they are unable to conceive — 0% fertility rate.
Conversely, Omega individuals, regardless of gender, experience a higher rate of fertility, nurturing abilities, and successful conception after mating with alphas.
Beta individuals are considered ordinary cultivators, but they will heightened their auditory perception and bodily senses.
Still, their conception rate is lower compared to Omegas.
There are two marks — Temporary and permanent — Only Alpha could mark omega.
Now that I remember, This Alpha, Omega, and Beta business is the real deal in the fifth Heaven's whole galaxies, multiverse, universes, etc.
They don't get a say in becoming one of these fancy labels.
It's like a rite of passage before hitting the century mark. Yup, you heard it right – once they cross that 100-year threshold, no more joining the Alpha, Omega, or Beta squad.
Now, here's the part that makes me roll my eyes — the dreaded horny mode.
Tsk! tsk!
Every four or so months ago, Alphas and Omegas had to endure this 'estrus period' nonsense.
During this time, Alphas start oozing pheromones like there's no tomorrow, sending Omegas into a baby-making frenzy. It's like they can't think of anything else but getting jiggy with their partners or at least snuggling up for some 'comfort.'
Sheesh!
Their power will have little buff, and there's also a ranking system involved in it — Rare is sss grade. The higher the rank, the more intense psychological pressure is for this whole shebang.
Alright, here is where there is juicy part: this method is an employee of the same sex, Around 60 %.
But there are some normal humans as well, crowd because, get this, Alphas can knock up Omegas, regardless of gender and achieve great six senses, even break the limit.
There are various techniques, but this one's a doozy. It's like a biological miracle or something.
A female Alpha can whip up a temporary… second set of reproduction organ package, while a male Omega can sprout a permanent if wish since it is Omega's choice even for time being, well, you know what I mean.
Unlike those Abo novels, an Alpha can simply infuse their pheromones into an Omega's gland, share some blood, and boom — Pregnancy achieved.
And only the marked Alpha can make their Omega preggo.
The best part?
Once an Alpha marks their Omega, they can't go around marking others, build harem, unless the Omega gives them the green light or revokes the mark from their gland otherwise it counts as cheating shit.
In my last life, I lived in a universe where the whole Alpha-Omega thing was a big deal — One of Fifth Heaven's universe.
I was an SS level Omega, or nobody could choose what they were gonna become, and trust me, it wasn't my idea of a good time.
I didn't want to be an Alpha or an Omega, but in that universe, you couldn't dodge it even if you ran away from that universe.
'Once you were born there, you were stuck with it… I wonder if Amelia will end up being my Alpha…' My cheeks started heating up like I was a toaster on overdrive.
I quickly patted my cheeks like a bobblehead on a bumpy ride and took a big gulp of watermelon juice to cool down.
"How many secrets are you concealing? And why?" Nisho finally shed tears, utterly distraught. At that moment, she felt very uncomfortable and heartbroken.
Could her children not even share their confidences?
Why were they hiding things? Did she truly not deserve to have children? She reminisced about the day when she and Sam welcomed their first child.
They had celebrated the entire week, overwhelmed with joy. Where had she gone wrong?
If she hadn't treated Mia with indifference, perhaps Ely wouldn't hide matters from her. Or should she reflect on her parenting approach, questioning why their offspring felt insecure around them?
Sam contemplated similar thoughts, but as a man, he was restricted from tears and simply pinched eyes with Ely.
"Where did we go wrong?" He harbored numerous questions but posed more pertinent ones.
"Regarding my mother's question, truthfully, I hesitate to confide in you because..."
Ely paused before addressing his father's question, "You two have never understood us. Why not examine past mistakes, just as you advise me?"
"..." Sam's face turned dark.
"Hahahaha!" Ely laughed mockingly, "Isn't it amusing? Regardless, Gwen and I have decided to marry after my graduation this end of year. Due to my intelligence, I will pass the exam once after I explain my circumstances."
"... I see! So, this is how our family will disintegrate, huh!"
Sam's expression was green, red, yellow, yet he didn't display any kind of pain. "Is there no way for all of us family members to coexist peacefully?"
"Please, exclude me. Could you provide me with those papers? I wish to submit them." I interjected, unwilling to listen to their lamentations.
"Stop talking." Gwen looked at me, her lips twitching as she smashed her fist onto the top of my head.
"Ouch!" I was unable to see it coming due to my current power levels.
"...Wait here." Sam went into the room and brought out some papers. I saw the petition form, and before I could grab it, he burned it.
My eyeballs turned cold as he smiled sorrowfully.
"Sorry, Mia. I've had enough of this. At least, you'll keep your Mia name, even if it's only on paper." He handed me another document and some papers to Ely.
It was a transfer of ownership document. I wasn't so naive as to misunderstand its meaning – seeing that 25% of their property would be transferred to my name if I signed.
"What happened with that cowardly big brother Marvel? Did he fail to inherit the family's inheritance?" I provoked with my gaze, not giving a damn about Nisho's cries.
"... Please sign this paper. At least, as parents, let us do this!" Sam smiled softly, but I was unmoved seeing his red eyes.
"And if I don't sign?"
Sam smiled deeply, "Who doesn't like money? I know everyone is greedy. You also want it even if you showed not to care about wealth. Please take this money and forgive your father for his mistakes."
I looked at him with a murderous gaze, killing intent emanating from me.
At the moment, I disliked his attitude, as he arrogantly stood there, assuming I would have mercy or love for him. Even now, I didn't want this money given by those responsible for a child's suicide.
"Heh. You know what?" I snickered, grabbing the document and tearing it in front of his face. "Your child, Mia, has taken her own life because of mentally torment."
"She is dead inside me, all because of you both, Marvel, and Alex. She is dead… DEAD, FUCKING DEAD. DON'T YOU DARE CALL ME BY THE NAME OF MIA IF YOU WANT TO LIVE MORE."
