*****

With Kali's shout of pain, everyone got into action. Kali and Cecile were both laid on a bed with support for their legs so that their birth was more comfortable. 

Clara and Flora were between their legs, ready to help with the delivery. As all-rounder maids, they all had enough knowledge to help deliver a baby of any race. 

Flora spoke soothingly as the contractions started. "Kali, laying an egg is different from a normal baby. When you are laying the egg, which is much less flexible, relaxation is key. Your body will do enough natural contractions to push it out. What you need to do is try to relax all your muscles. There will come a moment when the egg is half pushed out, and at that moment, I will tell you to push with all your strength. Then, the egg will pop out by itself, okay?"

Kali nodded a few times as she bit her lip to repress the painful moan that was about to escape. Yasenia grabbed her hand and said. "Honey, don't hold back. Now, you are the most important, so if you want to scream in pain, do so." 

Kali nodded, and as soon as she did, another contraction happened, pushing the egg outward. However, because her body was not stretched enough, it caused an electrifying painful sensation to assault her brain. "AH!" 

The pain was much stronger than she thought. 'Oh my baby, don't be so impatient. Let mom deliver you slowly!'

Another contraction occurred, and Kali grabbed Yasenia's squishy hand tightly as another scream of pain left her. "UGH!" 

Yasenia, at the side, looked calm to give Kali a reassuring vibe. However, behind her, the tail was twisting in knots with each of Kali's screams of pain. The girls looking from the side felt a strange combination of anxiousness and laughter. 

Cecile, who was looking at the tail with amusement suddenly felt her uterus cramping, and her eyes widened as an involuntary scream left her. "AH!" 

Yasenia instantly turned 90 degrees and grabbed Cecile's hand without releasing Kali's. "I am here, Sweetheart, Honey. Just do it at your pace, don't worry." 

Her deep and attractive voice had a soothing effect on both women, helping them relax their bodies and feel more secure. 

A pain like this was entirely foreign to them. It was such a deep and piercing pain that no wounds they'd received in the past could compare. 

Strangely, the pain was not something they feared. They knew this pain they felt was because they were giving birth to a baby. Their motherly instincts took over during this time, and their determination to deliver this little one safely could overcome everything.

A mother was strongest during her birth, and not in a physical manner, but mentally. A good mother could give her everything for their child to live a happy life, and such boundless love was strong enough that even when going through torturous pain, the thought of stopping never crossed their minds. 

Two hours went by, and Flora and Clara both spoke almost simultaneously. 

"I can see the tip of the egg, Lady Kali!" 

"The little egg is visible, Lady Cecile."

Yasenia didn't bother to go check. While she was eager for her children, the sweaty and pale-faced state of her two lovers was making her heart twist in anguish and nervousness. She herself was sweating, and she wasn't even the one giving birth. "You can do it. I know my dears are the best. You both will be excellent mothers." 

Cecile and Kali took in deep breaths, guided by Clara and Flora. Right now, the feeling was incredibly uncomfortable as the egg was stuck in their cervix. 

After all, the egg's diameter was around 18 centimeters wide and 27 centimeters tall. Usually, human women could dilate their cervixes to around 10 centimeters for their babies to pass through. Hence, Kali and Cecile had not only their cervix but also their pelvis displaced by the egg's width.

"AHHHHH!" Kali's loud scream of pain came with a bit of blood pouring down, and when Yasenia's sharp nose sniffed the blood, her pupils shrunk as she looked at Flora with a penetrative gaze. 

Flora felt chills go up her spine as the draconic eyes locked on her, and she stuttered out of real fear. "Y-Young Miss, calm down. It's a small tear, but this will actually help Lady Kali deliver." 

The dragoness's pupils relaxed only when Kali squished her hand. "I-I am okay, love. Huuuu. It was a small tear, nothing serious."

Yasenia smiled softly and leaned down to kiss her hand. "Okay, Honey. Continue."

Then, she turned toward Cecile and asked. "How are you doing, sweetheart?"

Cecile smiled through the pain. "The promised 1000 children are going to be quite the torture, eh."

Yasenia laughed softly and motivated them. "Come on, dears. There's not much left. Relax the waist area." 

Flora and Clara focused their entire being, looking at every single detail with attentiveness. Soon, Flora saw the egg sliding out for a second. The movement was almost unnoticeable, but Flora knew that this meant the widest part of the egg was past the cervix and pelvis now. 

Flora mentally communicated with Kali not to startle Cecile. 'Push with all your strength, Lady Kali!'

More than 5 hours had gone by, but the second Kali heard Flora's order, her verdant green, tired, and dull eyes reignited with vigor, and pure determination shone in her eyes. "Baby! Come oooouut!" 

With an intense scream and a push, the egg slid out a large chunk, dilating her already stretched vaginal entrance further and even pushing her legs apart some more.

Selena, at the side, quickly controlled the formations to avoid Kali's scream reaching Cecile.

Kali pushed with all her strength, and each push was extremely painful. However, beyond pain, Kali, who could faintly feel the egg sliding out, felt joy as a mother. 'A bit more. Come on. A bit more, and my baby is out!' 

"HAA!" 

Flora saw the widest part of the egg sliding slightly outside Kali's entrance, and she quickly took action to help the egg out. "It's out!" 

Kali's mind almost blacked out when she heard Flora's message. However, she didn't want to faint. "M-My baby… I want… To see…" 

Yasenia's tail coiled extremely gently and carefully around the egg. Flora had cleaned it with a towel, so it wasn't really slippery. Then, without releasing their hands, Yasenia carried the baby with extreme care and love into Kali's arms.

Kali could see the beautiful and mesmerizing green and golden egg, and she was mesmerized. It was verdant green colored, with patterns of golden and forest green flowers. In her eyes, she couldn't help but feel that they were the most beautiful. "My… No." Kali looked at Yasenia, her tired green eyes dripping with pure love. "Yasenia, look! Our baby!" 

The dragoness laughed and gently squeezed Kali's hand while looking at the mother of her child. It still had to hatch, but this was the first time she could touch her child in such a physical manner. As Kali hugged the large egg, Yasenia used her tail to caress Kali's pale and exhausted face while rubbing her scent on both of them. "My Honey laid such a beautiful and healthy egg~. I am so proud of you, my love. Thank you for your hard work." 

Kali giggled, exhausted, and she looked down at the egg between her arms, giving it small kisses. "My baby~." 

Yasenia smiled softly and suddenly felt Cecile's hand tightening as her scream pierced her eardrums. "AHHH!" 

Yasenia's smile tightened, but she tried maintaining a loving face. She had to control her emotions because Cecile's and her connection was too close. If she became too nervous or anxious, Cecile would notice. 

Because her tail was with Kali and her newly laid egg, it didn't even twitch. The absolute control to avoid hurting both was much more prominent compared to her subconscious twisting of the tail. 

Cecile's wings began flapping in pain, sometimes hitting Yasenia's face, but the dragoness didn't even flinch and continued speaking softly from time to time with her soulmate. She also used their soul connection to send her reassuring and supporting feelings of love and appreciation. 

Clara was having a similar problem, as Cecile's three phoenix tails were relatively swift. Of course, while Clara had enough reflexes to dodge, she didn't. They allowed Cecile to release her feelings as she wanted.

For Cecile, it took around one more hour, and when Clara asked her to push, Cecile's process went slightly smoother. Eventually, a beautiful icy blue egg with silvery crescent patterns was delivered. Clara picked it up and cleaned it with a towel, passing it over to Yasenia. 

The dragoness saw that Kali had fallen asleep while hugging the egg and her tail, so she left her tail there while picking up the enchanting egg with her arms. She laughed, her heart feeling relief that both babies were delivered without problems. 

Then, with the egg in her arms, she approached Cecile and gave it to her. "Look, Cecile. Our little one."

Cecile extended her arms and hugged the egg. Her motherly instincts as a phoenix kicked in, and even though she was exhausted, her wings folded before her body, giving the cold egg cover with her wings. 

The action was extremely adorable. Cecile tilted her head and asked, her voice slightly hoarse and slow. "Why is it so cold?" 

Yasenia laughed. "Love, she comes from a mix of your and my bloodline. Probably, she will have powerful Yin-related attributes." 

Cecile blinked and frowned. "But my baby is so cold…" Her wings folded a bit tighter, making Yasenia not know what to do. 

Tatyana spoke from the side. "Cecile, as your child, that little one probably prefers a bit of a colder temperature." 

Cecile blinked twice, and her wings relaxed slightly. However, she didn't let go of her egg or stopped covering it. 

The dragoness kissed Cecile's sweaty forehead and smiled. "Now, rest, sweetheart. Nobody will be able to hurt you." 

Alaia appeared in the room and whispered something in Yasenia's ear, making her pupils thin to lines for a fraction of a second. However, they quickly returned back to normal. It was quick enough that Cecile, who had mortal strength, didn't notice. 

Cecile and Kali were carried to new beds so that they could continue sleeping, allowing both women to hold to their eggs. They were even bathed and cleaned without waking them up.

With Yasenia's presence nearby all the time, their sense of security was large enough that they didn't wake up during the whole process. 

After leaving both her exhausted dears in their beds, Yasenia gave them a kiss on the forehead and walked out. 

Evelyn approached, holding her large belly, and asked. "What happened? I sensed a spike in your aura." 

Yasenia kissed Evelyn's forehead and commented. "Don't worry, people who can't understand the reality of the world are attacking us. I'll go deal with them. You, Angel, Andrea, and Tatyana, go rest. Okay?" 

Evelyn obediently nodded.

Yasenia gave Evelyn, Angel, and Andrea a slow kiss. Then, she gave one to Tatyana and asked. "When do you think you will give birth?"

Tatyana muttered. "Probably next week at the earliest, or the next month at the latest."

Yasenia nodded. "Gotcha. I'll be here. I promise."

Tatyana snorted. "Can you not create such a death flag?"

Yasenia asked, bewildered. "Death flag? What death? Is that a new skill?"

Tatyana laughed. "Go, go." 

Yasenia exited the room, and her aura burst around her when the girls couldn't notice. "[Shadow Running deer]. Good, good good. Did you dare send one of your spies to the place I've locked out? You wanted to mess with Honey and Sweetheart giving birth?" 

Her irises, bright red as oceans of killing intent constantly were released around, reflected only the intent of slaughtering. "I'll make sure your race doesn't give birth anymore, then. ALAIA! Let's end the war on land. Call every ally."

Alaia's face was incredibly cold as well. "Yes, Young Miss."

In her mind, the dragonmaid was sneering. 'You've touched Young Miss's reverse scale. Now, learn what happens when she becomes unreasonably angered.'
