51: Double blessings

The next morning, Brian arrived at the Mage Tower to begin his meditation.

After finishing his meditation and stepping out of the meditation room, Spirit Eye appeared before him.

“creator! The main structure of Factory No. 3 has been completed. We can now engrave the Magic Formation.”

“Good, let’s go then.”

Half a day later, Brian, with practiced ease, completed the engraving of the Magic Formation for Factory No. 3.

“Spirit Eye, the Magic Formation engraving is complete. You can arrange for the production lines to move in.”

“Understood, creator. I already purchased the production lines yesterday. After debugging today, we can begin production.”

Spirit Eye swiftly activated the factory’s logistics dispatch system.

Streams of magical light flickered within the factory, precisely transporting dedicated small magical missile production lines to their designated positions in Factory No. 3.

Subsequently, Spirit Eye began a meticulous debugging of the production lines, ensuring that each one could operate at its optimal state.

A short while later, Spirit Eye reported to Brian:

“creator, the production lines have been debugged and can officially begin producing small magical missiles.”

Brian nodded in satisfaction and said, “Very good, Spirit Eye. Closely monitor the operation of the production lines. Report any issues to me immediately.”

Spirit Eye quickly responded, “Understood, creator. I will monitor the production lines in real-time to ensure a smooth production process.”

Brian continued, “Additionally, arrange for some robots to conduct spot checks on the produced small magical missiles to ensure every missile is flawless.”

Spirit Eye immediately set up the spot check procedure in the system and assigned the corresponding robots to the task.

Time flowed like water, gently passing through the long river of years.

It was now mid-March 3623.

Inside the territory’s hospital, Brian was pacing back and forth between two delivery rooms.

Today, both Lucia and Emily showed signs of going into labor simultaneously.

Brian paced outside the delivery rooms, releasing gentle magical fluctuations to soothe any tension his two beloved partners might be experiencing inside.

He occasionally peered through the small window on the delivery room door, looking inside.

Though he couldn’t see anything, it felt as if doing so brought him closer to the new lives about to be born.

At this moment, the medical staff inside the delivery rooms were busily working in an orderly fashion.

They used various magical medical instruments to assist Lucia and Emily in a smooth delivery.

Lucia lay on the delivery bed, her face radiating maternal glow.

Though her body endured the pain of childbirth, her eyes were filled with anticipation.

Emily was the same.

She clutched the bedsheets tightly, her forehead covered in sweat, yet she bravely persevered.

As a clear cry rang out from Emily’s delivery room, the first baby was born.

Brian was so excited he nearly jumped. He clenched his fists, his eyes sparkling with joy.

Immediately after, the cry of the second baby came from Lucia’s delivery room.

Brian felt his heart overflowing with happiness.

Two medical staff members, each holding a swaddled baby, emerged from Lucia’s and Emily’s delivery rooms respectively, smiling as they said to Brian:

“Lord, congratulations! They are two healthy babies, a boy and a girl.”

The medical staff from Emily’s room was holding the boy, the older brother.

The medical staff from Lucia’s room was holding the girl, the younger sister.

Brian quickly took both babies, carefully holding them in his arms.

Looking at their delicate little faces, his heart was filled with joy.

After holding them for a while, Brian felt it was time to go in and see the two women who had given birth to his son and daughter.

He then temporarily handed the two babies to the maids who had arrived, asking them to bring the babies with him.

Brian first went to Emily’s room.

Seeing Brian enter, Emily’s face showed a tired but happy smile. She softly said, “My dear, our child…”

Brian sat by the bed, gently holding Emily’s hand, and said, “I saw him. He’s a healthy boy. You’ve worked hard.”

“Brian, let’s name the child!” Emily said to Brian with a slight smile.

Brian looked at Emily tenderly, pondered for a moment, then said, “Let’s call him Cain. I hope he grows up to be a brave and wise person.”

Emily nodded gently, then looked at Cain, her eyes full of love: “Cain, that’s a beautiful name. Brian, thank you.”

Brian smiled, gently stroking Emily’s hair, and tenderly said, “No, I should be thanking you instead. Thank you for giving birth to such a lovely baby for me!”

“Brian, it’s *our* baby!” Emily said with a slightly playful tone amidst her exhaustion.

“Yes, yes, yes, our adorable baby!” Brian quickly replied in a conciliatory manner.

“Brian, I’m a bit tired. I’ll rest for a bit. Please go see Lucia quickly!” Emily said to Brian in a tired yet gentle voice.

“Okay, you rest first. I’ll have them move you to a special resting room later so you can get some good rest.”

Brian went along with Emily’s wishes, also mentioning the arrangements he planned to make.

“Then I’ll go see Lucia now.”

After speaking, Brian left Emily’s delivery room.

Subsequently, Brian arrived at Lucia’s room.

Seeing Brian enter with the baby, Lucia’s face beamed with a happy smile.

Brian sat by the bed, gently stroking Lucia’s hair, and said, “Lucia, you’ve worked hard. Thank you for giving birth to our adorable daughter.”

Lucia smiled and said, “Yes, Brian, our daughter is very cute.”

Brian looked at Lucia tenderly and said, “Indeed, you did wonderfully. From today onwards, our territory has two new members. Emily also gave birth to a baby!”

Brian then looked at his daughter’s innocent little face and said, “I’ve named our child Leah, wishing her to be like the first ray of morning sun, warm and bright, and her life filled with joy and happiness.”

Lucia gently hugged Brian and said, “Leah, what a beautiful name.”

Brian gently stroked Lucia’s face and said, “Later, I’ll have the hospital arrange a room for you all to rest well. I’ll be with you in the room tonight.”

“Okay, then you go arrange it. I’ll rest first.”

“Alright, Lucia, you rest first. I’ll go out and make arrangements.”

After speaking, Brian went to arrange the room.

Soon, with the assistance of the maids, Brian escorted Lucia, Emily, and the babies to the arranged room.

At this moment, the golden finger reappeared in his mind.

['bloodline master descendant 3: Cain Jose']

['Aptitude: Fourth-grade Mage Talent']

['Mental Trait: Danger Perception']

['Physical Trait: None']

['The bloodline master can choose one from Aptitude, Mental Trait, and Physical Trait to copy and integrate into himself to strengthen himself.']

['bloodline master descendant 4: Leah Jose']

['Aptitude: Second-grade Mage Talent']

['Mental Traits: Illusion Mastery, Calm as Still Water']

['Physical Trait: Rapid Recovery']

['The bloodline master can choose one from Aptitude, Mental Trait, and Physical Trait to copy and integrate into himself to strengthen himself.']

Two descendant panels appeared at once.

It was Brian’s first time encountering an aptitude talent lower than his own.

Then, with a thought, he first copied Cain’s talent and mental traits.

Afterwards, he looked at his own panel.

['bloodline master: Brian Jose']

['Aptitude: Third-grade Mage Talent +1']

['Mental Traits: Photographic Memory, Mind Palace, Danger Perception']

['Physical Traits: Mana Doubling, Life Affinity']

Brian noticed that his aptitude had not increased, leading him to two conjectures.

One was that anything lower than his own would not increase his talent.

The second was that the quantity was not a whole number and thus not displayed.
