Chapter 415: Chapter411-Little Leslie is Born!
"What an incredible phenomenon! What is Leslie doing?"
Inside the pocket dimension, everyone was drawn to the powerful energy radiating from the central palace.
Above the palace, a massive vortex expanded, resembling an insatiable black hole. Nearly all the mana and life energy within the dimension was sucked into it, forming a deafening storm of unparalleled intensity.
Madelyn and the others quickly rushed toward the palace, their hearts racing with anticipation and concern.
Inside the palace, Owen stood in stunned silence, watching the unfolding spectacle.
When Leslie had mentioned that the child could be born early, Owen had thought she was joking. After all, childbirth usually required ten months of pregnancy, and given the extraordinary nature of both parents, even twelve months would be considered normal.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
But now, under Leslie's mysterious technique, the very fabric of time and space around her seemed to warp under the overwhelming vitality surging from within.
Leslie became the epicenter of a cold, intense energy wave that froze the palace floor and filled the air with biting winds, sharp as blades.
Madelyn and the others, having just arrived, immediately felt the bone-chilling cold envelop them, their bodies trembling involuntarily.
Leslie now looked like an untouchable Ice Queen, surrounded by a blizzard of snowflakes that spiraled around her. The concentrated life energy gathered at her abdomen, causing her slightly rounded belly to shift subtly.
Moments later, a brilliant light burst forth, so radiant that it blinded everyone.
This light pierced through the pocket dimension and into the real world. Across Pure Land, mages gazed upward in shock, witnessing the emergence of what appeared to be a second sun -this one shining with an eerie white glow.
"What is happening in the Emerald Dreamscape?"
"That energy... it's purer than any natural treasure I've ever encountered!"
Countless discussions broke out across Pure Land, as the unprecedented event captured everyone's attention.
Back inside the pocket dimension, as the radiant life light began to fade, Owen's pupils constricted sharply.
In Leslie's arms lay a delicate baby girl, as perfect and pristine as a porcelain doll.
The child didn't cry but gazed around with large, gem-like eyes, her flawless skin glowing with a healthy, rosy hue.
Owen, utterly mesmerized, stood rooted to the spot.
Leslie, her face pale but tender, looked down at the infant with boundless affection.
Little Leslie had arrived.
"Mommy!"
The baby's soft, sweet voice called out, her tiny lips parting like delicate petals.
Leslie smiled warmly, nodding at her daughter. She had always known that their child would be extraordinary, and this confirmed her belief. Born precociously wise, Little Leslie seemed aware of her surroundings.
Even as she spoke, the mana around her surged into her tiny body, accelerating her growth at an astonishing rate. Within moments, she had grown to resemble a slightly younger version of Seraphina, giggling as she looked up at her mother.
Suddenly, Little Leslie turned her gaze toward Owen.
Owen, still in awe, felt a powerful resonance within him, a deep connection to the child he had helped create.
"Daddy..."
The baby's soft, angelic voice called out to him.
She clumsily stepped away from Leslie, her tiny feet wobbling as she tried to walk toward him.
But after a few steps, she lost her balance and fell into the snowy ground.
Yet, instead of crying, Little Leslie stood up, brushing the snow off her chubby cheeks with her tiny hands.
Owen's heart melted at the sight. He couldn't resist her charm and appeared beside her in an instant, gently scooping her into his arms.
Her small, silky-soft body smelled faintly of milk, and as she rested in his embrace, she beamed up at him, patting his cheeks with her tiny hands.
"Daddy! Daddy!" she called, her voice overflowing with joy.
Owen could only laugh, his heart brimming with pride and love.
Madelyn approached with a teasing smirk. "Brother, it's just a baby. Do you have to drool over her?"
But her playful tone vanished the moment she laid eyes on Little Leslie.
The baby turned her curious gaze to Madelyn and, with a sweet, lilting voice, said, "Auntie Madelyn, Daddy is amazing!"
Madelyn's heart swelled with affection as she practically squealed, "Little Leslie, what do you want? Tell Auntie, and I'll bring you the stars if you ask!"
Rachel and the others joined them, drawn to the baby's enchanting charm.
"Rachel Auntie!"
"Seraphina Sister!"
"Audrey Sister!"
One by one, Little Leslie greeted each person, her innocent voice melting every heart.
Everyone couldn't help but adore her, showering her with affection and promises.
After a while, Owen brought Little Leslie back to Leslie's side. Holding both his daughter and his wife in his arms, his gratitude overflowed.
"Thank you, Leslie," he said, his voice thick with emotion. "For everything."
Leslie smiled softly. "I just wanted to meet our little girl sooner. Now, does this mean I can go
to Demon Realm with you?"
"No." Owen shook his head, his expression serious. "It's far too dangerous-even I can't
guarantee safety there."
Leslie fell silent for a moment. Then, with a piercing gaze, she asked, "Will you come back
safe?"
Owen squeezed her hand tightly. "I promise you-I will return unharmed."
For now, Leslie let the matter rest, turning her attention to their sleepy daughter.
The six remaining days passed quickly.
During that time, Owen stayed close to Leslie and Little Leslie, cherishing every moment with them. Little Leslie grew rapidly, learning to walk with confidence and sleeping less and less, her development far from ordinary.
Their peaceful days were interrupted on the morning of the duel by an unexpected visitor.
"Owen, it's time."
Venus entered the pocket dimension, her gaze complex as she looked at Owen.
She had already heard of Little Leslie's birth. Asking Owen to face a life-or-death duel now seemed unbearably cruel.
Owen, however, had been preparing for this day. He nodded calmly in acknowledgment.
Before he could leave, Little Leslie appeared, gazing up at him with wide, curious eyes.
"Daddy, are you going somewhere?"
Owen bent down to stroke her soft hair. "Daddy will be back soon. Stay here with Mommy and
wait for me, okay?"
"But Daddy..." Little Leslie's big eyes glistened with hope. "I want to go with you!"
