The Baby Isn’t Yours

Chapter 99:



Gaia, captured by the doctor, had her heart and fairy stone removed alive.

She said that her heart was replaced with another, although it wasn’t clear whose heart she received. But she realized that it was the heart of a monster.

She didn’t know exactly what kind of monster it was, but she knew that it had tremendous vitality, which helped her survive in the body of a fairy, which is its complete opposite. To do this, heart radiated dynamic power.

Fortunately or unfortunately, in order to suppress the rejection reaction that was supposed to occur in her body, the doctor repeated the process of injecting the monster’s blood over and over again to adapt her body.

At the same time, her body gradually died off, but the doctor said that it didn’t matter.

Because everything will be restored as soon as the merger occurs…

Shortly after the experiment began, the doctor discovered that she was pregnant and laughed out loud when he found out.

“If I use a child as my experimental subject, it will become a very special subject for humanity. Who knows, maybe it will become the strongest being!”

He has since stopped experimenting, but Gaia’s body has already been destroyed.

Because a fairy body without a magic stone can die at any moment without any problems.

Gaia was a high-ranking fairy, and as a descendant of royal blood, she had the ability to purify magic on her own. That’s why she was able to survive with her weak life power.

She said she barely escaped with someone’s help.

She only remembered that the woman was wearing a crown.

“Listen carefully, Patrick… I’m about to die. If I live a little longer… if I live longer, the child will die.”

“Oh no, Gaia, no!”

“Fool… I have to give birth quickly before the magic touches the fetus.”

“Oh no, no way, Gaia. Oh God, you can’t die.”

“I was always afraid that you would die first… It has become the opposite.”

“No, you can’t. Gaia, please. Don’t talk like that, okay?”

“…Hehe, fool. Don’t cry. I don’t cry either. Please take care of our child, Kalia. We promised to name our baby Kalia, the name of a very powerful ancient fairy.”

Patrick clenched his teeth with a curse and burst into pitiless tears.

The tears in his eyes made it hard to see her face.

He wanted to say ‘no, please don’t leave me’, but he couldn’t utter anything with his sobbing mouth.

“I love you. I will love you always. My love. Please take care of our Kalia.”

This brave fairy showed courage, wiping the tears of her beloved man to the very end.

She was the strongest woman ever.

She was the strongest fairy than anyone.

She used all her powers and made the girl in her womb grow.

Fortunately, due to the fact that she was half human, the girl needed less life power to grow than an ordinary fairy.

Although she didn’t have the magic stone, Gaia was grateful that she was able to deliver her baby safely.

“Patrick, you have to hurry. Take our baby… and run.”

After these words, Gaia’s body began to slowly oxidize.

“That man, Lirik, is after her.”

Her beautiful hair, the fingertips he had loved so much, and even her lovely hands, were all gone.

Gaia shattered into white fragments and vanished into thin air without a trace. Everything without even a trace.

In the end, only a red baby was left, in which there wasn’t a drop of a magic stone and who couldn’t even cry.

Since she was an imperfect fairy without a magic stone, considering the fact that she was able to take her first breath without the power of nature was the last blessing for this child.

“Ah, aah… aah!”

Patrick was crying while holding the baby in his arms.

He wanted to beat his chest, but he didn’t even have time to mourn the death of his beloved.

He got up, sobbing, and ran.

He ran away from there, holding the whimpering baby in trembling hands and barely controlling her body temperature.

Deep night.

The light of the moon and stars filtered through the carelessly drawn curtains.

The night was deep, it was far from dawn, so the sky was dark, and a beautiful river of stars streamed across it.

Sharak.

The curtains were shaking in the open window.

At that moment, Kalia, who was fast asleep, opened her eyes and blinked.

“…Oh no. I was about to leave quietly after looking at your face for a bit.”

Simon, looking at the silent Kalia, laughed.

“You…”

Kalia got up and called Simon.

As he sat next to Kalia, the scent of the wind enveloped her. It was a strong scent of natural energy.

“Did you just come?”

“Yes. A little later than expected. However, I wanted to see your face, so I snuck in, but you caught me. You don’t notice when Sasha cries loudly, but did you notice as soon as I quietly came here?”

Simon reached out and gently ran his hands through Kalia’s hair.

Kalia, looking at him, smiled slightly and answered.

“It smelled like you. A very nice scent.”

At his words, the hand touching the tip of Kalia’s hair stopped. He looked at her with a meaningful look for a while, and then slowly lowered his head.

‘You are teasing me.’

Kalia finally reached out her hand, looking into his face as he approached so slowly, hesitating. Suddenly, Kalia grabbed his back and pressed her lips against Simon’s.

Their lips touched without a gap. It was a slow but sensual kiss, warm but passionate.

“Kalia.”

“Hm?”

“…Don’t make me burn with passion,” Simon said playfully and bit the tip of her chin.

The sound of laughter echoed faintly through the silence of the night.

“So where were you?”

“If we go to the capital, I think like it will be difficult to come back here again. So while we’re here, I wandered around a bit.”

“Around?”

“Yes, around. I’ve been to the Akan temple.”

“Akan temple?”

“I’ll tell you about it later. I am still investigating.”

Kalia obediently nodded at Simon’s words.

“Okay. Let me know when the time is right.”

At her trusting words, Simon felt a strange itch in his chest.

Kalia trusted him. As someone who couldn’t hide anything, her trusting eyes on him were never false.

Suddenly Simon felt he could just tell her everything. Of course, until now, he hadn’t specifically hidden anything from Kalia. But he also didn’t want to bother her with too much information, so he refrained from talking.

“Honestly,” he began.

“Hmm?”

“They say the fairies who live in the Empire have been disappearing for years.”

He spoke softly.

He told her about the investigation into the whereabouts of the fairies requested by the crown prince, about Viscount Aonte’s suspicious movements, about the Chimera’s corpse he had found the day he went after her, and even about the shadow that had covered Hemmie not so long ago.

“So you’re saying it’s all about Akan?”

“Yes.”

Kalia suddenly sat up, resting her chin on her hand.

Simon was a little surprised by her calm reaction, but he thought she was typical of Kalia.

She was strong not only physically. Even if she had to take on all the difficulties of the world, she remained calm and steady.

“Actually, I have seen Prince of Akan before. Although he doesn’t seem to recognize me…”

“Have you seen him before? Where and when?” Simon asked hurriedly in astonishment.

“That day in Anticra. In the city near the forest of fairies.”

“Oh, that day… So you lured me there on purpose, right?” Simon asked, narrowing his eyes as if belatedly remembering this.

Kalia laughed, haha, found his hand on the bed and intertwined their fingers.

“I thought you would come right away. In fact, I disappeared without saying a word, so I thought you would get angry and chase after me.”

“Yes, I got angry. But to be honest, when I actually met you, I felt like getting on my knees.”

“Why get on your knees?”

“Because I don’t want you to leave me. I will go with you anywhere.”

“…Simon.”

Kalia didn’t know how to look into the eyes of Simon, who was spitting out unfathomable emotions so casually.

His heart was too big.

His heart was stickier and deeper than she thought, so Kalia’s chest trembled as well.

“I shouldn’t have said that just now. It can be burdensome.”

He shrugged and smiled wryly, trying to lighten the weight of his words, which he so involuntarily poured out.

Kalia shook her head as if it was strange and looked at him.

“It’s not burdensome at all… Should I feel burdened?”

“I’m too crazy about you. Is it good for you?”

“Isn’t that good? My heart flutters every time I feel that you are crazy about me…”

Kalia smiled at Simon, who was looking at her.

He reached out his hand, entwined with hers, and touched her flushed cheek.

“It’s okay that you’re crazy about me, Simon.”

“…Is it okay?”

“Yes, so don’t hide the feelings you kept from me for so long. I will grow my feelings as much as you do.”

He just looked at Kalia without saying anything. He suddenly laughed and shook his head as if he couldn’t help himself.

“Kalia Tacskate.”

“Yes?”

“Where did you learn to drive people so crazy?”

“Me?”

“Yes, you. You drive people crazy even when you’re not around and you drive them crazy even when you’re with them…”

He took a deep breath and closed his eyes tightly.

He muttered softly, ‘I can’t do it, I can’t do it. I have to endure it,’ and looked like he was about to give up.

Simon pressed his fist to the corner of his eye, rubbing it.

“…I can’t. I need to leave.”

“Where?”

“I need to go wash up and go to bed.”

“Where are you going to wash up?”

“…In my room?”

“Why?”

“What do you mean?”

Kalia smirked and patted him lightly on the shoulder, wondering if he was serious.

“So you came to me at dawn just to leave?”

“…”

“Go wash up quickly and come back here. Let’s sleep together.”

‘Oh my God.’

Kalia spoke softly to Simon, who was moaning and looking for a way out.

“You can be more crazy about me.”

Simon gave up and laughed.

The gentle sound of their laughter filled the quiet dawn.
