Chapter 327: Benladann Is Way Too Cute Sometimes- I Mean, Always!

-----

Thanks to Fuyu, we had extra time to slack off through the "free week" which also somehow counted in the development of Benladann's baby, so practically half a month has pa.s.sed from the almost two months it would take, so we still got a month and a half to wait, but her belly… well, it had grown exponentially more than before!

"Hehe, why are you looking at me like that?"

Benladann was wearing a beautiful white dress while sitting at my side as we had lunch. She chuckled cutely as she felt embarra.s.sed by my intense stare.

"Ah… It's just that you're just as pretty as always. And very cute too." I said.

"Fweh? W-What with that all out of the sudden?" she asked embarra.s.sedly.

"Nothing, you just look very cute with that dress, and your slightly fat belly is cute too… I think I am blessed of having such a cute wife." I said.

"G-Geez… You really like to say I'm cute, don't you?" sighed Benladann. She had been having mood swings lately, sometimes she gets very tsundere-like. But her gentle nature doesn't change.

"I am just stating a fact…" I said, as I caressed her head and she blushed.

"If you don't eat your meal, I'll eat it…" she said, as she extended her fork and took away a piece of my meat.

"Oi! Okay fine, you can have it. My cute wife can have everything in the world." I said.

"Sheesh, you're really spoiling me now…" she sighed, as she blushed even more. Her adorable nature captivated my heart and made it beat faster. I am so much in love with her that I cannot possibly get tired of her cuteness. I believe she makes me fall in love every day, in fact!

"That belly looks very cute…" I said, petting her belly.

"It is growing big but it's asking for a lot of food! I'm always hungry now…" sighed Benladann, as she finished my plate in just half a minute.

"Dear, do you want seconds?" asked her mother, who was cooking for us right now.

"Sure! I'm starving!" cried Benladann.

"Alright~ An extra big bowl of rice with meat and eggs coming right up!"

Benlah cooked something simple today, a lot of rice, grilled meat cut into thin slices, a tasty citric and sweet sauce, and fried eggs on top. This was a preparation we named "Grilled Meat Bowl", and the bowl of rice comes with a lot of it alongside the meat and the eggs. It is a fulfilling meal that fills the stomach, but she had already eaten two and she's still hungry…

"Drake, you want one too?" asked her mother.

"Yeah, please."

"Alrighty~!"

"By the by, where's Laddan?" I asked.

"Oh, that man's currently in the arena fighting and polis.h.i.+ng his skills, instead of eating with his family!" sighed Benlah.

"Well, that's better, more for me…! Nom, nom, nom…"

Benladann began to devour the bowl of meat, eggs, and rice in seconds.

She was more gluttonous than me.

I began to wonder if the baby had, by chance, inherited my endless stomach.

Well, my stomach is actually not endless, I do feel satiated after a bit, and nowadays I can even hold onto my hunger for very long too, I have high Hunger Resistance!

However, the baby obviously doesn't have such a powerful cheat such as me, so it is always hungry and asking for energy to develop.

Whatever it is, it is very big and strong.

I can't wait for it to be born, honestly! I think I might die out of a heart attack on that day, luckily, I am pretty sure I can survive a heart attack anyways.

"Dear, you're going to eat that?" asked Benladann while giving me puppy eyes, she had some rice on her lips.

"Go ahead," I said, as I cleaned the rice off her lips and kissed her.

"Fufu…"

She began to devour once more.

"Drake! Don't let her eat your bowl! Geez… If you want more you have to ask for a more, girl!" sighed Benladann's mother.

"Well my Drake is very gentle with me, so he lets me at his bowl!" said Benladann in between stuffing her mouth with food.

"Drake I believe you're being way too permissive with this spoiled girl." Sighed her mother.

"I can't help, she's my weakness," I said.

"Geez… Young love is really strong in these two." Sighed my mother-in-law.

Maybe she's right. Benladann got me completely at her mercy!

…Well, not really, it is just rice bowls, and I already ate my fill-in breakfast when we had food we ordered from the restaurant, so we are fine for the moment.

Anyways, going back to the previous topic resuming what has happened these last 7 days, Ruby has been adapting pretty well to her new environment.

We had a talk with her, Rakasha, Benladann, and me, and we explained to her about the Vampires and everything else, and she ended telling us the truth which she had lied to me about not knowing.

Of course, I got a bit angry and reprimanded her for lying to me, especially because we really cared about her, so she apologized for it and now things are better.

Essentially, she knew that her mother was the leader of the ancient faction that desires to revive the Venerable of Blood, and also that her pendant is in fact a large and the strongest fragment of his soul which has been crystallized into a "dead" item. This way, the Venerable was able to ignore the laws of the world and it was not suppressed because it trans.m.u.ted his own soul into a material, effectively dying in the process while still being here.

She said that if anyone else that wasn't of her bloodline tried to take it away, the pendant would release a powerful curse in that person that might affect their entire bodies and paralyze them on sight.

I tried it out with a small slime clone and well…
