Chapter 34: Chapter 31: Leonel Awakens
After the babies’ birth, a two weeks passed. A lot happened in these days. First, both babies’ wings appeared. Yes, appeared. Turns out, that they were able to control them, making them appear and disappear at will. This was something that even the boys weren’t able to do at their current Grade.
Maybe it had something to do with them being born as Neo-Nephilims. The second thing that they discovered was that when the babies absorbed their wings in their bodies, scales would appear on their shoulders. It was similar to the scales on the boys’ shoulders.
And the babies were very attached to the boys. Even more so than Katherine and Alexi. Sometimes when they started crying, the only thing that could calm them down was the boys’ embrace. This had Katherine and Alexi somewhat worried. Not because they were jealous or anything but because the boys had told them that they would be leaving for the War Academy next year.
Right now, the family was having their dinner. Jatherine had put the babies to sleep. While they were eating, Alexi asked, "How has been your progress?"
Zeke said, "Slower than expected. It only took us 4 months to achieve 5 Stars in all the physical stats. Of course, that was possible because of our pain tolerance, but still. Soul and Mana Vessel cultivation is taking much longer than I expected.
We’ve only achieved 2 Stars in the MANA stat and 1 Star in the SPIRIT stat in two weeks. It’ll probably take us about three more months, I think, to achieve 5 Stars in both MANA and SPIRIT stats."
*crack*
Alexi had accidentally broken his plate because he applied too much pressure with his fork. He looked at the boys, barely controlling himself from beating them up. Slower than expected? He was also talented but it still took him more than a year and a half after Awakening to achieve 4 Stars in all stats. He had tried for more but 4.5 Stars in the physivcal stats was his limit.
And if things went accordingly, the boys would achieve 5 Stars in all stats in just eight months. Bloody eight months! He was inwardly asking God if one existed, ’Where is the justice?’ He replied, "Sorry for that. The babies kept me up last night so I lost control due to sleep deprivation."
Cass said, "Speaking about the babies, have you guys decided on names?"
Katherine replied, "No, we haven’t. Do you guys have any suggestions?"
Both boys shook their heads. Cass said, "I don’t know if you have noticed, but we’re pretty bad at naming things. Don’t you remember Goldy the Goldfish and Clowny the Clownfish?"
[Realm Weaver here. I will be taking suggestions on the discord server. So do join and get a chance to name the babies. Or you can gift a Car and choose the name for one baby. If you gift a Dragon, then you can name both babies.]
Katherine became silent. She realised that it was better if the boys didn’t name the babies. They finished their food and went upstairs. Just when they were about to enter their rooms, Dean appeared with a silver flash.
Zeke exclaimed, "Holy fuck!"
Dean smacked his head and said, "No cussing. Especially with babies in the house."
Cass said, "I agree with you Uncle Dean, but you have to stop appearing out of nowhere."
Dean scratched his nose and replied, "Yeah, my bad. I used Zeke as the teleportation coordinates. Anyways, I recieved a message from the Old Man. He is awake. And brace yourselves"
Without giving them time to react, Dean held the boys and disappeared in a silver flash. They appeared outside Leonel’s room in the lab. The boys, who had just had dinner, retched everything out. They looked at Dean with eyes that were ready to kill.
Dean simply replied, "Jus a few more times and you’ll get used to this. Consider it a lesson."
Although he was trying to look all serious but the hint of a smile gave it away. He just liked messing with the boys. After cleaning themselves up, the boys entered the room with Dean. As soon as they entered, their jaws dropped.
They were expecting to see Leonel but instead, they were greeted by the sight of a young boy wearing oversized clothes. He looked similar to them in age. The trio stood there, trying to control their laughter.
The boy said, "Don’t you dare laugh."
That was the final straw. They burst into laughter. The boy sigghed and waited for them to calm down. After they had, he said, "Brats, give me a pair of your clothes."
Cass took out the spare set that he kept with himself and gave it to Leonel. Leonel changed and said, "I have good news and I have better news."
The trio looked at him curiously. He said, "The good news is that this state is temporary. I will recover my strength in about three years."
Dean asked, "And the better news?"
Leonel replied proudly, "I will surpass my old strength and enter the EX Grade. The Federation will finally have and EX Grade at the helm."
Dean almost fainted when he heard what Leonel said. Then, he started laughing like a madman. He hugged Leonel and picked him up, spinning him in circles.
Leonel tried to push him away, "Let go of me, you brat."
But it was useless. Dean was on cloud nine right now. Then he put Leonel down and hugged the boys. He had started seeing a bright future for the Federation after he had met them. Then he told Leonel about the boys’ new skill and progress. Leonel was shocked. Although he had expected that the boys would progress rapidly but this was too much.
He was also happy that the boys were practicing the Supreme Exercise. He had not told its secret to them because he didn’t want to hinder their technique in any way. If they had practiced the Supreme Exercise, it would have made creating the Conduits very difficult for them.
He said, "Have you turned any Angels or Demons into Neo-Nephilims yet?"
The trio looked at each other. They had completely forgotten about that due to their training. Zeke quickly thought of an excuse and said, "We were waiting for you, Grandpa."
Leonel smacked his head but only injured himself. He didn’t say anything about the pain and said, "Quit lying. I can tell that you guys forgot. Thats no issue. Let us go and do that now."
Just as they were about to make their way to where the subjects were kept, Leonel’s expression suddenly changed. He looked as if he was greatly shocked and in doubt. He activated his Life Sigil before he became sure. He looked at the boys with a complicated expression.
He said, "Brats, did you somehow have kids in these four months?"
The boys looked at him in confusion. Zeke even wondered if turning back into a kid had somehow made the old man senile. As if understanding that Zeke was thinking something disrespectfull, he sent a voice transmission to Dean, ’Smack Zeke.’
Dean did as he was told. He didn’t ask any questions because smacking Zeke on his head was oddly satisfying. Zeke said, "Heyy!"
Leonel replied, "Brat, I know you were thinking something disrespectfull. But I am not kidding. I just sensed two more Life Sigils in the mansion. So either you two had kids or..."
Cass completed his sentence, "The babies also have Grandpa’s bloodline."
leonel said, "Yeah. That makes more sense."
Zeke chimed in, "Well, the babies have our bloodline. And we have yours so it isn’t that surprising if you think about it. Congrats Grandpa. Now you have two more cute grandchildren."
Leonel had tears in his eyes. The Vitali Family, was once a glorious and huge clan with more than 100 talented members. But most of them had lost their lives on the frontlines. At this point, his family had more dead than alive. But in just two years, he had gained four more members. And their bloodline was very pure.
He could tell that the babies were his direct grandchildren in regards with bloodline purity. How could he not be emotional. Seeing the tears, Zeke said, "Grandpa, I think that you should brace yourself. Because if it works like this, anyone we turn will probably have your bloodline. Although it will be low in purity, it should be enough to activate the Life Sigil."
Leonel’s eyes widened. More tears appeared in his eyes and he said, "Thanks boys. This also reminds me. I need to introduce you to the family. They must be dying to meet you. We have already delayed it a lot."
Cass said, "We’re looking forward to meet them too."
Dean said, "Lets test this theory now. Boys, how many Fanatics do you have right now?"
Boys checked through the skill and replied, "1027."
Leonel gasped, "That many?"
Cass said, "The rest are True Believers except for one Angel. He is a Saint."
Dean was practically shaking with excitement. Then, they made their way to the dungeon with all the subjects.
