Her gaze met Grace\'s broad, golden, curious eyes, which caused her to force a warm smile on her lips before she lifted her head and looked at Orion. Queen Selene\'s smile slowly dropped as pain filled her eyes.
"I…" Orion began. However, a loud voice sounded in the air.
"I hope we are not late!"
Orion turned his head to the side and saw the Village Chief and the Village Chieftess, Stronghold Leader Zogar, Caretaker Shani, Ivor, and the others behind them. Meanwhile, Seth was positioned at the end of the group.
Orion shook his head in response, "No, you are just on time," Orion responded.
He greeted them one by one, welcoming them with Grace gently carried in his arms.
"WWAAAAHHHH!!"
Suddenly, a loud crying voice rang out in the air, stunning Orion and causing him to stand rooted in his spot in a daze.
"HAHAHAHAHA! Congratulations, you have finally become a father yet again," the Village Chief roared in laughter, briefly smiling at Grace, who was also stunned by the crying baby sound.
One by one, they all congratulated Orion with smiles on their faces. Though under normal circumstances, bearing children was a routine occurrence happening every week within the Village, which they would only bother paying attention to if it was something extremely important, like this one. After all, no matter how they looked at it, Orion was one of the most influential individuals in the Village.
Also, considering the peculiar situation concerning the childbirth of Orion\'s women, it wouldn\'t look good if they weren\'t present for such an event.
Nonetheless, Orion didn\'t dare walk into the room after receiving their congratulations. He waited until he could be invited inside the room.
"WWAAHHH WAHHHH!!!"
It didn\'t take long, and after several minutes, the cries of various children could be heard from inside the room.
Even without being told, Orion was aware that everything was going smoothly.
His partners and everyone around him sighed in relief, sharing the same sentiment.
Suddenly, the door flew open.
Bang!
Just as Orion wanted to speak, three midwives rushed out of the room and passed by the corridor before they went down the stairs.
Orion was momentarily stunned by their actions before running forward to see what was happening. However, before he could approach, the door was abruptly snapped shut.
Orion furrowed his brows, pondering what was going on inside. His body gradually became restless again, wondering if anything terrible had happened to either his children or his wives.
Everyone around him, from his wives to Queen Selene, the Village Chief, and other key figures, couldn\'t help but also become doubtful about the results.
Fortunately, the midwives arrived several minutes later. Just as they were about to rush back into the room, Orion caught one of them quickly.
"What\'s happening in there?" Orion asked immediately, his expression solemn.
The three midwives immediately halted their steps, flustered as they looked around and realized everybody\'s eyes were on them. They just noticed their presence.
The midwife caught by Orion stared at him with a broad smile and a look of envy as she said, "Warrior Orion, congratulations! Mrs. Ingrid, Celia, Vivian, and Mrs. Derry just gave birth to beautiful, healthy twins."
BANG!!
The woman\'s words hit Orion like a hammer, stunning him and causing him to lose his grip on the midwife. The impact reverberated through everyone present. While they were generally a fertile village, the chances of conceiving twins were extremely rare, happening only once or twice a year, even during peak fertility.
The fact that four of Orion\'s partners, who had a higher risk of complications during childbirth, had each given birth to a pair of twins was nothing short of extraordinary. This revelation left everyone amazed.
Even Grandma Meldra, contemplating whether to have her own children, felt her heart race as the gears in her mind shifted.
Although the midwife had not yet provided information on the condition of Orion\'s other partners, it was evident that they were all doing well.
Seizing the opportunity presented by the momentarily stunned silence, the midwives rushed back into the room.
The surroundings fell into complete silence as they waited, understanding that everything would soon be revealed.
An air of anticipation enveloped everyone as they remained silent, awaiting the conclusion of the events inside the room.
After about half an hour, the door was suddenly pulled open, and Lola, Greta\'s assistant and the second-best healer in the Village emerged with beads of sweat on her forehead. Lola respectfully greeted everyone present, acknowledging the authority each held in their own right before shifting her attention to Orion.
"You can come in, Mr. Orion. They are all waiting anxiously to see you—" Lola began, but before she could finish her sentence, Orion had already rushed through the door. Witnessing this, Lola simply shook her head with a smile before turning around and closing the door once more.
As Orion entered the room, he saw several midwives, two or three attending to each of his wives. The room was spacious enough for them to move freely, resembling a vast hall that allowed everyone to walk about without feeling crowded.
The moment Orion walked in, their wives immediately noticed his figure.
"Orion!!"
"Orion!!"
"Orion!!"
One by one, they all called out to him, urging him to come forward and help soothe the discomfort they had just experienced.
Orion immediately approached the person closest to him. "How are you feeling now?" he asked.
"Although it was a little uncomfortable, it was nothing I couldn\'t handle," Reena said tiredly, with a weak smile. "Besides, I delivered first, so you should start taking my words seriously from now on," she added, showing the baby in her arms.
Lola rushed forward and whispered something into his ears, leaving Orion unsure whether to cry or laugh. Lola had just informed him about which child was born first and who was the last.
"Come on, Orion, tell her her name," Reena said as she revealed the child within her grasp under Grace\'s curious eyes.
Orion nodded and began to name his newborn children one by one.
