Join the ServerThat’s not how you lay eggs! This isn’t laying eggs at all! It’s bombing!
What came out wasn’t a fox egg at all—it was a nuclear bomb!
And where’s my daughter?
Where did she go?
Come back!
Come back… woooooo…
The strong wind made my cheeks flap.
Boom—
I crashed down like a meteor, blasting out a huge crater while burying myself deep into the ground, headfirst…
What a tragic position. I was stuck in the earth, unable to move. It wouldn’t be long before I suffocated.
It should be over by now… If another shot came, that would be epic.
Wait… this urge to pee…
Holy crap! No way! Is it really becoming epic?
[Fire!!!]
Bang—
I plunged into the ground at a terrifying speed. I saw earthworms, a bewildered mole brushing past me, and dinosaur fossils—
[Pfft haha, that last shot wasn’t an egg—just your urinary stones. The energy hadn’t been fully released, so it came out… No more eggs. Done… Three in total… Pfft… Hahahahaha…!]
Finally, I understood why Sherli had laughed like an idiot earlier.
I laughed too—Heh, heh, heh, heh.
Three eggs, right? Perfect for one plate of fried eggs, one omelet, and one scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
Yingning summoned me out, saving me from suffocation. As soon as I saw her, I threw myself into her arms and burst into tears like a child.
Next to me, Aksiya and Sherli were laughing heartlessly.
Yingning didn’t laugh. She gently rubbed my head and… chest?
I immediately pieced together the cause and effect—was it already time for lactation?
No! I don’t want this! I want fried eggs! I want omelets! I want scrambled eggs with tomatoes!
“Good work. Hatch the eggs properly, there’s a good girl.” Yingning whispered softly in my ear, her tone incredibly gentle.
“Mm…”
Wait?! What did I just agree to?
Her soothing voice short-circuited my brain, and I agreed without thinking! Now that I recall—hatch the eggs?!
“I… hatch…”
For Yingning, I’ll give it my all!
“Nurse the babies well~ Good girl~”
“I… nurse…”
“Alright, go back and find the eggs!”
I burst into tears again.
The first and second daughters were fine—as long as the eggs didn’t expire and rot, I’d dig them out in a few decades. But the third daughter… that brat blew up the moon and got blown away by it! The pet space was huge—where would I find her?
“All adventurers, listen up!” Shermi suddenly put on a stern face.
Huh? This posture…
“Your next task is to find the third fox egg that fell onto the Aydel continent! It could be in the Demon King’s castle, in the dragon’s cave, or even in the legendary Five Forbidden Zones!”
[System Notification: Auto-accepted main quest—Find the Third Egg!]
Wait, are you serious?
[System Notification: Just kidding.]
“Pfft haha, relax. Finding the egg only needs a small spell. Since you’ve provided me with a lifetime of laughs, I’ll give you this spell as a gift… I wasn’t going to, but you’re so miserable… Hahahahaha—”
I’m so miserable, so you laugh?
I curse you to swallow a thousand bottles next time! May you blow a hole through the Aydel continent!
Beast-kin normally learn skills by killing monsters, except for pet skill machines… In theory, killing a certain kind of monster grants a certain skill—that’s the original setting.
Monsters are usually kept in spirit pouches. Shermi tossed one to me.
“Smash it.” Shermi said.
I threw it to the ground and smashed it.
A wisp of gray smoke emerged.
[Low-level Space Element—Summoning—Bloodline Summon]
A holy light bullet killed this low-level space element, and a new skill appeared in my skill list—Summon Offspring.
[Summon Offspring: Upon use, you can select one or several offspring to summon to your side.]
“Alright, go back and hatch the eggs! Leave the tasks here to them!”
I nodded aggrievedly, ready to return to the pet space.
“Oh, by the way, you’ve advanced successfully. You can learn some new intermediate priest skills. But from now on, every time you advance, you’ll have to drink the Mother-and-Child River Water again. If you’re unlucky… hahahaha!”
My vision darkened, and I felt terrible.
Sigh, I’ll deal with the future later. First, hatch these little fox cubs…
Today, I finally understood how hard mothers are in this world… You know, when they gave birth to you, they flattened the Earth several times! After each flattening, they had to carefully hire mages to restore the damage, which cost huge amounts of money! So many families fell into ruin because they accidentally blew up the solar system and couldn’t afford the repair costs. Some mothers were vaporized into ashes due to cosmic negligence… But these are secrets of the inner world! Great parents will always keep this secret, letting you live happily… until the day you fire your shot!
Sigh… Enough talk… My heart is so heavy…
I returned to the pet space and summoned all three little ones back.
The little ones weren’t affected by any impacts. The eggshells were smooth and warm, as if they had just left my body.
Wait… Why did this urinary stone follow me too?
[Mother-and-Child River Water Energy Crystal, Quality: Gold Divine Artifact. Can be used to craft level 60 equipment, adding a “Make Contact and Get Pregnant” effect, causing the opponent’s pet to fall pregnant unexpectedly.]
In a sense, it really is a divine artifact… Shameless…
I turned my attention to the eggs.
A red-quality egg… Red? A color I hadn’t seen before… Could it be even more powerful than gold?
The egg was white, with a small fox tail pattern on its surface. It looked a bit like my assassination notice but more refined and vivid.
The first daughter’s egg had a one-tail pattern, the second had two tails, and the third had three tails. It seemed the number of tails was just a sequence marker.
[Unnamed Egg (First Birth) (Quality Unknown)] The name indicated the order, so I could tell who was the eldest, second, and youngest.
[Incubation Remaining Time: 40 hours, 0 minutes, 0 seconds.]
I released my other eight tails and wrapped them around the eggs. Sure enough, the remaining incubation time began decreasing second by second.
Incubation here was different from reality. In reality, you use body heat to promote embryonic growth. Here, you pour your own life force into the eggs to let the little ones grow. So as long as you had enough life force, the little ones could break out of their shells.
The rate of life force infusion was constant—neither fast nor slow—so it had to be exactly 40 hours.
Shermi thought I was busy and could only spare six hours a day for incubation, hence saying it would take a week. But if I stayed online continuously and incubated like crazy, I could finish in less than two days.
Anyway, since they were on the town-clearing mission, it was none of my business. I didn’t want to accompany the bugs either… Incubate, incubate, incubate!
Time to hatch eggs! I’m not leaving!
I opened a video call to Yingning: “Master, the children don’t have names yet.”
I clearly saw a flash of cold light in Yingning’s eyes: [Wait for me to look up a list of historical greats.]
Thinking of those ridiculous names for cats and dogs, and looking at the long string above my own head, I wanted to slap myself—what was I thinking asking Yingning to name them!
Anyway, I began my 40-hour incubation journey.
