Yuri finally gave birth to her first child. “Waaah, waaah!” The baby cried out its first cry. “It’s a girl!” The midwife exclaimed, and four generals and Michael entered the room. “Queen! Stay with us!” Yuri, exhausted both physically and mentally, was barely breathing. “Queen! Please hang in there!” Michael, with tears streaming down his face, touched Yuri and forcibly sent his energy into her. He sent as much as he could, but Yuri’s eyes remained vacant. Michael collapsed, and the second general began sending his energy. Outside, the enemy attack had begun. Lakshmi, in the king’s chamber, was fervently praying and channeling her power to her kin. Please hold on… The five strongest could not participate in the battle as they were giving their energy to Yuri. The queen has done her best… We must do ours as well… The warriors fought with the same determination. The strength of the dragon clan lay in the fact that the dragons themselves were powerful weapons. The stocky-bodied dragons had enormous wings on their backs, allowing them to fly and breathe fire. Their massive claws could also capture people. About ten dragons had come with the enemy forces, each ridden and controlled by a member of the dragon clan. It was extremely difficult to kill these dragons. Meanwhile, even though the five sent all their energy, Yuri’s physical strength only slightly recovered. Everyone sensed the danger she was in. “Lady Yuri! Stay with us!” “Lady Yuri!” “Queen!” The women were all in tears. “Waaah, waaah!” Sensing her mother’s crisis, the baby cried incessantly. The castle’s barrier began to distort. It wasn’t due to the child’s power pulling it. The premonition of Yuri’s death was causing it. Lakshmi wasn’t a god. Lakshmi’s mother had died right after giving birth to her. Lakshmi realized for the first time that the barrier’s distortion back then might have been caused by her mother’s death, not by the child. Don’t die, Yuri… But Lakshmi couldn’t only worry about Yuri. A battle was happening outside. At that moment, someone appeared in the room where Yuri was. “Lord Lakshmi!?” The maid exclaimed. The man resembled Lakshmi so much. He had golden, shining eyes, silver hair tied back, and wore silver clothes with a snake pattern, paired with pants that Lakshmi would never wear. The man approached Yuri, placed his hand on her head, and kissed her. Gradually, Yuri’s complexion returned to normal. Finally, Yuri slightly regained consciousness. She smiled at the man before her. “My lord… I did it…” “Yes… you did well, Yuri. You did great.” The man, with a voice just like Lakshmi’s, said, patting Yuri’s head. “Rest now.” The man removed the bracelet from Yuri’s arm and put on the one he had. The women watched the man in a daze. The man gave energy to the fallen generals.
