Diana POV
Yes, I have a POV too, I'm the sister of the self proclaimed and slightly narcissistic brother of mine. Yes, the one who somehow managed to use his slightly handsome look to seduced 2 older women, one who's like double my age.
No, I did not pay the author for some screen time, I want my pay for having to do this, but the author is currently what you call 'broke'.
Anyway, after I made sure the Lagunas kept the fragment of the jade secure, I explored the tower a bit to search for possible recruits who I can surround my brother.
The most talented one so far is actually Valentina Artia, she's not too late to train and can acquire the power of a named in 2-3 years if she worked a bit harder, 1 or 2 if she just join a team and climb the tower directly, if she had train since she was younger, she might already be one of the stronger ones amongst the ranked.
But she herself doesn't want to fight or take life, so I still have to keep looking, the Lagunas siblings are good, but they both are just slightly weaker than Valentina, but it's good that Perseus got Cordelia under his wing, if she goes on like this, she can be a named.
Luckily Zach and Decker are back to handle the office work while I can now have time to investigate that green fragment, no normal mortal should get their hands on it, the amount of power one fragment have...that is beyond abnormal, I know why mortals like us have access to it, the gods would never give out such items because like my existence, they're scared of mortals becoming their equal.
If it goes on like this, I might need to contact the admins or...my parents to know what's going on.
You all should realize by now, if you read some myths, it can be known that some demigods were stronger than a few gods back in the day, Heracles can be one of these examples, minor gods or not, their powers are beyond one can imagine.
A demigod is someone who is walking between the lines of human and supernatural, and sometimes, we are the only one who can STOP the supernatural, but despite our age, we are nowhere near as strong because the gods got stronger throughout the years, though they are now much more stagnant in their development as their pride makes them stop working hard.
And this jade...with existence of demigods like me and probably several others that exist during the current era, the gods would never allow it to exist, unless they don't know about it, which is impossible since otherwise, a jade fragment wouldn't be hidden in the tower itself, and Mirage Legion won't find out that there are 14 in total and they got that information probably by investigating throughout the tower.
But the best idea to know what it is all about is to ask the gods, and if they don't know, maybe the Chinese wealth deities. If not the human world, it's the dwarven gods.
And this opposing rival for the Mirage Legion, 2 powers who can collide and destroy the 13 worlds, 1 Mirage Legion can be handled, but 2 of them, there are 3 different sides and the 3rd one is completely hidden with the only ones we know who are connected to them are the missing nobles whose looks hasn't been described by that stupid brother of mine because he deemed them as irrelevant background characters.
I mean they are, but Benjamin is this 2m tall overweight blond earth spirit and look to be in his 50s and Tachima is a 1.6m tall, lean and look to be in his late 40s. They are now wanted across the 13 worlds, hopefully one of them get caught soon.
As I am trying my best to investigate all I can about the jade, I got a call from Decker saying that the queen of the nature spirits wants me for some reason even though they told her that I'm busy, but I then complied with the request.
*****
When I got there, I saw her face filled with some guilt as I sat down and hear what she has to say, Valentina is accompanied by her daughter who had this like adamant look as if she's urging her mother to say something.
And she did...how she...gods no...
"...and I'm really like written with guilt, and we want to tell you first to get your advice on how to you know...break it to him." the queen concluded
"Please try not to kill my mother." Eleanor sincerely requested
"Have you confirmed that you've been, you know...I can't believe I'm saying this...fertilized?"
Yes, readers, our world can detect life presence from the moment of fertilization, magic and technology mix very well, the chances of miscarriage is also almost non existence(They only happen to like elderly who still somehow got pregnant nowadays).
We know your world is boring than ours, like how most of you are uglier than- Sorry, my brothers influence leaked out for a moment there, anyway.
"Yes, and due to the fact that nature spirits like a dryad like me are very fertile, the potency of the pill also decreased even though I took the most potent one possible." she replied softly "So the baby will be born in about 4 years, 3 at the minimum."
"Oh my goodness, I'm sorry for this, but..." I then took a very, very deep breath "You lied to my brother right to his face, you crossed so many boundaries that I've literally lost count. And most importantly, you've betrayed his trust in a moment of lust and selfishness-"
Calm down, calm down, she's going to be the mother of my niece or nephew, possibly, twins, triplets, I don't care, I need to be kind to her, but this is infuriating.
"And that Perseus, why didn't he also put on some protection?!"
"We ran out..." Valentina whispered "He tried to be extra cautious despite my convincing, but even if we had enough...it's not a 100% effective...method."
"Shut it, let me think for a moment right now."
