Chapter 2 the Heir is born and the System is on the line.  

Eagle Village, Habsburg Manor.

"Mother, you found me a fiancée? and we're getting married in a few days?" Rennes who was basking in the sun, opened his eyes, looking confused.

This is too sudden!!

He knows nothing of this, not even who the bride is, and he's already getting married?

"That's right! Your father and brother are both gone."

"If you don't hurry up and get married and have children, if something unexpected happens, the bloodline of our Habsburg family will be completely cut off!"

Evelyn's expression was very serious.

Indeed, this is a very serious topic.

Throughout history, countless nobles on the Varan continent have disappeared into the river of history due to the extinction of their bloodlines.

For nobles, procreation is a very important mission.

The more members in the family, the more stable the family heritage.

From this perspective, the Habsburg family is obviously in the most critical moment.

There is only Rennes left in the direct bloodline.

If Rennes dies, the Habsburg family will certainly go extinct.

"Alright."

Upon hearing this, Rennes's sense of rejection immediately decreased.

As an adult, he naturally understands that responsibility and obligation go hand in hand.

Since he has inherited the title and land of the Habsburg family, he has the obligation to inherit and strengthen this family.

Of course.

Obligations are obligations.

If he is asked to marry an ugly woman, he definitely won't agree.

Knowing Rennes's thoughts, Evelyn smiled and gave a positive answer, "The fiancée I found for you is Janice, the eldest daughter of the neighboring territory's Rhein Knights. She is a very beautiful girl, so you can rest assured."

Upon hearing this, Rennes's eyes lit up, and the remaining trace of resistance disappeared completely.

Instead, he became somewhat excited.

...

Two days later.

The wedding was held as scheduled.

To help Rennes, who had just become the Baron of Habsburg, integrate into the local noble circle as soon as possible, Evelyn chose to make it a grand event.

Invitations were sent to almost all the nobles they knew nearby.

Therefore, the Habsburg family estate today can be described as bustling.

Noble guests dressed in formal attire can be seen everywhere.

Rennes, also dressed in formal attire, saw his future wife, Janice.

Just as his mother said, she is a very beautiful girl.

Fair skin, voluptuous figure, and a head of soft golden hair.

It perfectly matches his aesthetics.

Feeling Rennes' burning gaze, Janice, dressed in a pure white gown, blushes slightly and shyly lowers her head.

Next, under the witness of numerous guests and the priest of the Church of Love, Rennes and Janice successfully complete their wedding.

Officially becoming a newlywed couple.

After the wedding is completed.

The two of them complete the final step that night.

...

In the blink of an eye.

Three months have passed.

During this time, Rennes has been consciously cultivating feelings with his wife, Janice.

Although the two of them are a typical noble political marriage.

But he didn't want his wife lying next to him while her heart is elsewhere.

With Rennes' efforts, Janice's feelings for him have been steadily increasing.

The two of them are now inseparable.

Seeing how affectionate her son and daughter-in-law are, Evelyn was very satisfied.

At the same time, she constantly urges the couple to have children quickly, to continue the bloodline of the Habsburg family.

Under the supervision and urging of his mother.

Rennes have "fought" several times a day.

If it weren't for him being a 3rd rank warrior, his stamina was not to be compared to that of an ordinary person.

He would have been completely exhausted long ago.

One month later, Janice became pregnant.

"Rennes, I'm pregnant!"

"Hahaha! That's great! Janice, you've worked hard!"

Upon hearing this news, Rennes' expression froze for a second.

Immediately, with a happy face, he hugged Janice tightly and gave her a passionate kiss.

Leaning against her husband's embrace.

Janice caressed her belly, her face filled with a happy smile.

The couple was happy.

Evelyn, who had been eagerly anticipating becoming a grandmother, was even more excited.

"The Habsburg family is going to have a new member!"

Upon hearing this news, Evelyn was more excited than Rennes, who was about to become a father.

She immediately started preparing various items needed for pregnancy and childbirth.

At the same time, she cooked nourishing soup for Janice every day.

Of course.

Rennes was not idle either.

In addition to dealing with daily matters of the territory, Rennes even put aside his daily training.

He almost spent all his time accompanying his wife.

Feeling her husband's thoughtfulness, Janice felt very sweet in her heart.

Their relationship became even stronger.

...

Nine months later.

Approaching the due date.

In order to ensure a smooth delivery for Janice, Rennes specially invited a priest from the Church of Life to deliver the baby.

Although this high-magic world did not have scientific medical techniques such as cesarean section. (C-section)

But it had even more magical and miraculous magic and divine arts.

The Church of Life worshipped the goddess of life, who held authority over life and healing.

The priests under its banner possessed the divine art of childbirth, with a 100% success rate in deliveries.

They could be said to be the most powerful midwives in the world.

The only downside was the expensive cost.

To hire a priest from the Church of Life, it would cost at least fifty gold coins.

It should be noted that the annual tax revenue of the Habsburg family's fiefdom was only a little over six hundred gold coins.

Ordinary small nobles couldn't afford it.

However.

You get what you pay for.

With the help of the priest of life, Janice successfully completed the delivery in just over ten minutes.

With a cry, Rennes' first child was born.

It was a very healthy boy.

"This is my child!"

Looking at the wrinkled little guy in front of him, Rennes couldn't help but smile.

He became a father!

With a child connected by blood, Rennes finally felt completely integrated into this magical world of gods and saints.

He truly had a sense of belonging.

However.

The next second.

Rennes' joyful expression suddenly changed, and a hint of inexplicable shock appeared on his face.

Because he found that the weight of his qi in his body had inexplicably increased by one-tenth.

"What's going on?"

When he came back to his senses, Rennes' first reaction was not happiness, but fear.

This matter was too strange.

Such a huge improvement in his cultivation would take him at least several years of hard work.

And now he suddenly had it out of thin air.

Being reborn in this world, he didn't believe that good fortune would just fall from the sky.

Thinking of this.

Rennes immediately prepared to activate his qi, internally inspect his body, and find the source of his enhanced qi and physical strength.

Just as this thought emerged.

A piece of information automatically appeared in his mind.

[Host's child detected, family system activated.]

 [Begin testing the child's aptitude.]

[Ding! The child has no magical aptitude, low-level qi aptitude, overall evaluation is black iron level, you have gained one year of qi cultivation.]

[Note: Child's evaluation is based on cultivation aptitude, divided into black iron, bronze, silver, gold, platinum, diamond... The higher the evaluation, the more generous the rewards you receive.]
