Chapter 671 – 671. 1 Plus 1 Equals 4(3)
In any case, it was auspicious that Belldandy’s wish came true and that she had a baby.
“Hey! How… How can such an auspicious thing happen… !”
However, unlike Belldandy, who was visibly happy, Eunhyeon couldn’t be blindly optimistic.
Numerous thoughts came and went in my head at the completely unexpected and unprecedented incident of impregnating a goddess.
This situation was too much for her to express her joy in empathy with Belldandi’s feelings as she hugged her tightly and expressed her sincere joy.
“Hey? If… Aren’t you happy?”
“No. It’s not like that.”
Was it because his face was too hard?
Belldandy, who was delighted, showed a puzzled expression.
“Then why?”
“Me and Belldandy’s child… Are you human? Are you a god?”
Currently, Belldandy maintains a human state due to restrictions.
But that doesn’t change the fact that she is a goddess in her essence.
The condition was the same for Eunhyeon, who has the status of a half-god but is now just an ordinary human.
In this virtual world, it was auspicious for Verdandi to have her baby, but questions were bound to arise.
Should she be thought of as a baby created from an affair between a human and a human, or a baby created between a goddess and a demigod.
“Huh, were you thinking about that?”
Belldandy smiled as if it was nothing.
“Currently, we belong to the human frame due to my limitations, but the divine power imprinted in our souls has not completely disappeared. In other words…”
“… There is a high possibility that the baby will also possess the status of a god.”
As the two’s divine powers and souls harmonize, a new child god is born.
“Yes.”
“… Thank you.”
Eunhyun hugged Belldandi and thanked her.
“What?”
“You took my baby.”
“… It was something I longed for.”
Belldandy also deeply appreciated the correction effect of fate she had created and accepted her Eun-hyeon’s embrace.
And as time passed, the virtual world created by the goddess came to an end.
When the restraints that had been forcibly maintained in a near-human state were lifted, she regained her enormous divine power and divinity.
Soon after, an oddity occurred.
“Uh?”
[Hmm?]
The powerful energy concentrated in Belldandi’s abdomen suddenly materialized and radiated light, moving toward Eunhyeon.
Not one, but two lights.
Noticing the two lights that seeped into her body as if attracted like a magnet, Eunhyeon made a puzzled expression.
“… ?”
“I-I don’t know either.”
I looked at Belldandi in an incomprehensible phenomenon, but Belldandi was equally embarrassed.
It was not unheard of in the divine realm for a child to be born as a result of an affair between a god and a human, but it was an extremely rare case, and this was the first time Belldandy had a child.
Not knowing was inevitable.
“Just a guess… It seems like the babies that should have been inside of me have moved into the child.”
“Babies…”
The light that shone brightly from Belldandi’s abdomen was not one, but two.
That meant the babies created were twins.
It was a very happy news that naturally made people laugh, but Eunhyun was busy grasping the current situation.
After concentrating and examining the state of her body where the two lights penetrated, Eunhyeon realized where the two lights penetrated and settled in her.
“Ah.”
Eunhyeon immediately summoned the two swords she used to use.
“The color…”
Belldandi looked surprised.
The sword body, which shone brightly in red and blue, changed to gold and silver.
“… I knew it.”
Eun-hyeon was sure that she was right.
The two swords, which were imprinted as part of the soul, were imbued with two lights created by the mixing of Eunhyeon and Belldandy’s divine power.
Perhaps because of that influence, the two swords were thicker than usual and possessed stronger divine power.
“…”
Eunhyun was lost in her thoughts.
How should we interpret this situation?
Why did the half-god souls, freshly created in Belldandi’s stomach, move into Eunhyeon’s soul and settle in the two swords?
No matter how much I thought about it, the answer didn’t come out.
This was a question that even Belldandy could not give an answer to.
Because this is the first time she, as her goddess, has had the experience of making her own child.
‘It’s not like there isn’t a god to ask…’
An image of a certain god appeared in Eunhyeon’s mind.
Jupiter, god of the Dodecatheon.
Jupiter, who has Juno as her wife, has promiscuous relationships with countless goddesses, and is rumored to have touched humans in the underworld as well.
But aside from that, Eunhyeon didn’t want to ask Jupiter for advice.
‘That inspiration is really annoying…’
He was the highest-ranking god in Dodecatheon, but aside from those external elements, Eun-hyeon did not like Jupiter personally.
Jupiter has a lot of goodwill towards Eunhyun.
But that’s a favor you’ll never like.
It’s like the feeling of close kinship that a married man who flirts with a woman feels when he sees a fellow woman like him.
The sense of kinship that Jupiter had with him came as a huge insult to Eun-hyeon.
Certainly, as long as he had several wives and had a goddess as his companion, from the perspective of others, they were somewhat alike, but Eun-hyeon did not want to admit it.
However, in the current situation, there was no proper way other than to seek advice from Jupiter.
“… Whoa.”
He let out a sigh of relief at his self-pity.
“Hey? Why?”
“For a moment… May I go ask you something?”
“Ah.”
Belldandi understood Eunhyeon’s meaning.
Even he himself could not give a clear answer to the current situation, so Eun-hyeon’s idea of getting advice from another god was agreed with by Belldandy.
However, in this process, in order to send Eunhyeon to the realm of Dodecadeon, Verdandi’s authority as a goddess was required.
“I get it. Go and go Where can I send her?”
“Please go to the place where Lord Jupiter of Dodecatheon is.”
“A child gets along well with Jupiter. Since when did she become so friendly with her?”
“…”
Eunhyeon really felt like she was stigmatized.
It was all the more shocking that it really looked like that from Verdandi’s point of view.
Eunhyeon entered the ministry of the Dodecatheon under the authority of Belldandy.
It was never what he wanted, but as he wanted, he faced the god, Jupiter, who was solemnly sitting on a huge throne in front of Eun-hyeon.
[A welcome visitor has come.]
The sensation she hadn’t felt in a long time naturally made Eunhyeon’s body stiff.
The method of the gods communicating directly to the soul, rather than talking with their voice and listening with their ears, makes the soul resonate strongly with that communication alone.
“… Long time no see.”
Eunhyun bowed and said hello.
[What did you come for?]
With one hand resting on his chin, Jupiter maintained a solemn attitude while asking why he had come to Dodecatheon.
But unlike him, Jupiter’s eyes were filled with anticipation.
It was because Eun-hyeon knew that he would not visit her unless he had a special business.
Even if it was a request from a half-god belonging to the category of half-human, Jupiter, who had a goodwill towards Eun-hyeon, was willing to provide some convenience.
In response to Jupiter’s question, Eunhyeon revealed the business she had come for.
“This time, Belldandy… I have a baby.”
[Hoo?]
Upon hearing the news of Belldandy’s pregnancy, Jupiter couldn’t maintain a solemn attitude and showed an interesting expression.
And even the news that two new demigod spirits mixed with his and Belldandi’s divine powers have settled in Jeokwol and Cheongwol, part of Eunhyeon’s soul.
[I thought it would come like this one day, but it arrived in an unexpected form.]
“… Yes?”
[What are you so surprised about? It is not impossible for a demigod to be born as a result of an affair between a human and a god.]
Jupiter predicted that a new god would one day be born between Eunhyeon and Berdandi.
[So? How was it? An affair with the goddess.]
“…”
As expected by Eun-hyeon, Jupiter had no interest in the half-god that was about to be reborn.
On the contrary, it was to the point of being stunned that he was still holding on to that crazy attitude of asking about how his affair with Belldandy was.
Sensing that the conversation was not going well, Eun-hyeon was annoyed and was contemplating whether to just go back to Verdandi, but Jupiter, who had read the atmosphere, answered right away.
[It’s not that strange. Your new demigods have chosen their own places to settle down until they are fully grown.]
“… What do you mean?”
[It would be better to transfer it to someone who can explain in more detail.]
Jupiter, who muttered briefly, waved his hand, and the background around Eun-hyeon changed.
The background, which used to be the center of the magnificent temple, has been transformed into a forge filled with the smell of iron and scorching heat.
And with that background, Jupiter disappeared and a new god appeared in front of Eunhyun.
[Jupiter-nim is really too much. You’re going to leave me an explanation.]
It was a change that happened in an instant, but as the background changed, Vulcanus, who had heard all the explanations from Jupiter, smiled bitterly.
“Long time no see. Lord Vulcanus.”
[Hmm. It’s not a long time for me, but it will be like that in human time.]
Vulcanus nodded slightly and held out his hand toward Eunhyun.
[Could you show me your swords with new demigods?]
“Yes.”
Eunhyeon nodded, summoned the red moon and blue moon, whose blades had changed to gold and silver, and handed them to Vulcan without hesitation.
Vulcanus, who willingly gifted herself with the god’s weapon and contributed greatly to the completion of the red moon and blue moon, was the god Eunhyeon trusted and relied on next to Verdandi.
[Amazing. He’s more disciplined than I’ve ever seen before. And…]
The amount of divine power he possessed increased several dozen times compared to when he had just completed it.
It must be the influence of the two new demigods that settled within the Amago sword.
[Didn’t you say that the demigod created by the divine power of you and Belldandi dwelled in these two swords?]
“Yes.”
[To put it simply, it’s like assimilating with this sword. You can think of it as a newly born demigod choosing the best place for itself. These swords are still growing.]
To compare it to human bodies, the swords of Jeokwol and Cheongwol itself were the home and mother body of the new demigods created with the divine powers of Eunhyeon and Belldandi.
[This is the first time I’ve seen such weapons. You really made a great sword.]
Although unintentional, the result created unintentionally led to the best results.
It was all due to the ‘correction’ effect of fate that Belldandi had forced in the virtual world.
Even though the virtual world ended, the aftermath of the effect naturally led to the strengthening of Eun-hyeon’s power.
[But this is still not enough.]
“… What do you mean?”
[These two swords are certainly excellent enough to be praised as the best work of any blacksmith, but they are not worthy to fully capture this enormous scale of divine power.]
Therefore, it was necessary to reinforce it so that it could handle the power of the two halves, which were scheduled to become self-sufficient sooner or later, by repeatedly retraining to raise the level of Jeokwol and Cheongwol.
[You always bring me something fun to do whenever you visit me.]
“I will help.”
◆ ◆ ◆
“That’s how the Golden Moon and Silver Moon were born.”
Eunhyeon gave the two newly transformed swords new names.
With the help of Vulcanus, the two divine swords, which had been retrained countless times, finally awakened and formed egos, and the two demigods who inherited the divine powers of Verdandi and Eunhyeon appeared with their egos.
“… Sorry. I don’t quite understand.”
Erin, who was eating breakfast, made a complicated expression.
Divine power, a newly born demigod, it was a very difficult story for Erin, who did not yet properly understand the providence of the underworld.
However, in the end, Eun-hyeon, who had two daughters, looked very bright and relaxed, as if she had enjoyed her vacation properly.
‘What, is it okay?’
It was enough for Erin to be able to see her face.
“Oh, Hyuna. And Anies-sama came to visit.”
“Anies?”
“Huh. That… Pope? He said he wanted to see Hyun-i?”
“… Hmm.”
Eunhyeon finished eating and put down the tableware.
She was thinking about what was going on, but she got up right away because there was something more important than that.
“Are you going to go to Anies-sama right away?”
“No. To Illyana.”
“Ah.”
First of all, he had to introduce the two newly created demigods, himself and Belldandy’s two daughters, to Illyana and explain her circumstances.
“… Wouldn’t you be angry?”
Although he has become much calmer now, he could not be optimistic as much as he knew his personality in the past.
Saying that it is better to hit Mae first, Eunhyeon quickly washed the dishes with Erin and headed to Illyana.
