Witch's Daughter And The Devil's Son Chapter 763: Arrival Of A Baby

Chapter 763: Arrival Of A Baby

Keiren, despite his tears, heard her and looked at Seren.

She met his gaze. "I can help her. Both the baby and Edith are still with us. I can feel their pulses clearly. I have to act before it's too late," she said hurriedly.

"Do whatever you can, just keep her safe," Keiren replied, not even questioning Seren's plan. He was ready to cling to every last hope of saving his wife.

"You need to call my husband inside," Seren instructed.

Cara and the midwife were taken aback at the thought of another man in the room while Edith was giving birth.

Keiren didn't have time to argue. He turned to Cara and said, "Call the man standing outside."

Before the servant could move, the door opened, and Drayce stepped in. He didn't look at the bed, focusing only on his wife as he stood just inside the doorway to stand as far as he could from the bed.

"Dray, you have to block the h.e.l.lfire," Seren said, not caring that the others wouldn't understand.

Drayce nodded and extended his power of darkness towards her, essential to block the h.e.l.lfire so she could use her divine power of the earth element.

"You're ready to go," Drayce instructed after a few moments.

Seren looked at the midwife. "Just do what you're supposed to."

The midwife, unsure of what this young woman intended, nodded and prayed for the baby to arrive safely with whatever Seren was about to do.

Seren placed her hands on Edith's swollen belly and closed her eyes. A soft glow began to emanate from her palms, gradually enveloping Edith's belly and spreading across her entire body, creating a magical illumination. Edith woke with a loud gasp, as if being pulled from suffocation, while Seren continued to channel her divine power to strengthen Edith and the baby inside her.

Keiren, the midwife, and Edith's servant Cara were stunned. They watched in awe as the gentle glow spread across Edith's body, witnessing a magic they had never seen or expected in their lives. Inside that dimly lit chamber, Edith's body glowed like a sparkling gem at the depth of the ocean.

With renewed strength, Edith was able to push, and the midwife a.s.sisted, while Seren didn't move even a bit till she could be sure that Edith's body was not in any danger.

Finally, the baby emerged, and soon a loud cry echoed through the chamber. The midwife announced, "My Lord, you are blessed with a son."

Keiren's focus remained on his wife. "Edith, are you alright?" he asked anxiously.

She nodded, offering a weak smile. Tears of relief and joy filled Keiren's eyes. "You were strong. You did well," he praised her.

Seren finally withdrew her hands, tears of happiness glistening in her eyes.

Drayce had already stepped out of the chamber once his task was complete.

Edith looked at Seren, who gently held her hand and smiled warmly. "Congratulations, Edith. Thank you for giving me a G.o.dson."

Exhausted, Edith smiled weakly and closed her eyes, finally succ.u.mbing to the overwhelming fatigue.

Leaving everything to the midwife and servant, Keiren stepped out of the chamber. Outside, he spotted Drayce and approached him.

"Congratulations," Drayce said.

"Thank you," Keiren replied.

"What happened today inside that room, I hope it won't get out," Drayce added.

"Rest a.s.sured," Keiren responded.

"If you feel worried about anything, let me a.s.sure you that my wife is not an ominous evil witch as the rumors says."

"I do not care what she is. All I know is that I will always be indebted to her for saving my wife's life. You do not need to a.s.sure me of anything. If I had found her evil, I would have never allowed her to meet my wife."

Seren had been visiting Edith for a long time already, and Keiren had never stopped her. Edith was happy with Seren around, and all he wished for was his wife's happiness.

After a while, Seren stepped out of the room. Spotting Drayce, she went straight to him, her moist eyes meeting his. "You are an uncle now."

Drayce nodded and hugged her. "You must have been scared."

She hugged him back, allowing herself to relax in his embrace. "I was worried, what if it didn't work? I didn't want to lose them."

"You did well, Seren. I am so proud of you," he coaxed, wiping away her tears.

"The baby is so small and beautiful," she mumbled, a content smile spreading across her lips.

Drayce nodded in agreement.

Keiren, who had been standing quietly to the side, turned to her. "Thank you for saving my wife and son, Your Majesty."

"You do not need to thank me, Prince Keiren. We are family, after all," she replied. "I am so happy to welcome a baby into our family. I am an aunt now." Read more chapters on

Keiren could only nod lightly, not wanting to comment further. He had kept away from his family but now realized he might not be able to anymore.

"For what you did today, Your Majesty, if you ever need something from me, I would gladly give it to you," Keiren said earnestly.

Seren wanted to say she didn't need anything but instead replied, "I will keep it in mind."

Just then, Cara stepped out of the room, holding a baby wrapped in a warm, thick cloth. She walked over to Keiren. "My Lord, the baby is absolutely healthy."

"Edith?" he asked, even before looking at the baby.

"My Lady is doing well too. She just needs to rest," Cara a.s.sured him. Only then did Keiren look at the baby in her arms.

"My Lord, would you like to hold him?" she asked.

There was hesitation in his eyes, fearing he might not be able to. "I am not sure if I can."

"You sure can, my Lord. You are a father, and you will know how to hold him properly," she encouraged, offering the baby to him.

His trembling hands moved to take the baby, worrying he might drop him. But the small bundle fit perfectly in his arms. As he looked at his son for the first time, his eyes glistened with unshed tears.

"He looks like his mother," Keiren said softly, observing the baby's delicate face.

Drayce watched his brother, seeing the joy in his eyes as he held his child. Various emotions flashed across Drayce's face as he wondered what it would be like to hold his own child, a child that would belong to him and Seren.

Keiren noticed Drayce's gaze and walked towards him. "Want to hold the baby?"

"I'm not sure if I can…" Drayce hesitated.

"It wasn't difficult after I held him," Keiren interrupted, understanding his brother's hesitation.

"Dray, I was worried too, but once I held him, I didn't want to let him go," Seren encouraged. "You can hold him. Trust me."

With a conflicted and worried gaze, Drayce looked at the baby as Keiren handed him over. The moment the small body weighed in his hands, Drayce felt his entire self go stiff. It was an indescribable feeling. Holding a newborn was an experience like no other.

"How does it feel?" Seren asked gently.

"It's… amazing…" Drayce mumbled, his eyes fixed on the delicate baby in his arms. He looked at his brother. "You are truly fortunate."

Keiren hummed in agreement. "You will be fortunate one day as well."

Seren observed the two brothers. Unlike what she had previously thought, there was no tension between them. They clearly had nothing against each other.

The arrival of this small baby seemed to mark the beginning of bringing them closer as a true family.
