Chapter 1568  Grumpy Pregnant Wife

-----

After that talk about Venerables, the Ice Queen went into a bit more detail about the ones she didn't name. Those that were mostly "neutral" or "on their own" which were often called "Demonic Venerables" anyways because they didn't choose to ally with the "righteous" factions, therefore immediately being called evil and villainous.

They were the "Demonic Trio" as she calls them, the Fox Venerable, the Flame Venerable, and lastly, a guy I've only heard a bit from Henrietta, the dwarf captain who has accompanied us since we recruited her back on Heaven Port.

"The only dwarf that ever became a Venerable would be "Onyx Hammer Blacksmith Demon Venerable", he was the strongest and mightiest Blacksmith that this world has ever seen." She said. "He was the one that made most of the weapons the Venerables after his birth wielded. Me included."

"Wait, he just made them for you guys for free?" I asked.

"Of course not, we all had to contact him when we ascended. He had a price for his creations, a big one. I was about to just not commission him, but after knowing that every other Venerable already got a weapon from him, it would mean I would be in a great disadvantage…" She sighed. "So I gave up and paid."

"And… what was the price?" I felt slightly dreadful. "What could a Venerable like him even want as payment?"

"Simple, even amongst Venerables, there's slight power differences. And we all are constantly striving to become stronger… Or well, get stronger once we revive." She sighed. "Naturally, our greatest source of power, and something every God that reaches Rank 10 requires to make to continue cultivating, an Ascendancy Law. I had to give him a fragment of my Ascendancy Law."

"Wouldn't that have weakened you a lot?!" I gasped.

"Not enough, and I restored the fragment lost through natural regeneration after a few hundreds of years." She crossed her arms. "In exchange, I got a weapon forged with half of that fragment too. The strongest weapon I possess, one not even you have seen, sealed within my Tower. I will only gain access to it once I revive."

As I descended from the skies, someone came running towards me.

"Drake! You're finally back, honey!" Benladann was the first to run towards me once I returned, hugging me tightly even in my dragon form. She simply became gigantic herself to do so.

"Y-Yeah, sorry for being away so long. I imagine she told you I was in a Trial, right?" I wondered.

"She did! I was really angry! If she wasn't a Venerable I would have surely beaten her really good!" Benladann smiled slightly menacingly. Even the Venerable hid behind me a bit.

"A-Ahahah, honestly, same." I nodded.

"Right? She's such a sneaky little…" Benladann glared at her angrily.

"Hey, do you have to get so angry? At the end your husband got stronger! Sigh, these younglings… Anyways, I'm off. I need to continue training your little friends. They'll soon breakthrough their Divinity Manipulation Abilities." She quickly disappeared, almost as if running away.

"Oh, you're finally back! Did you had to be gone for so long?!" Miranda angrily said, her belly had become even bigger. "Look! I'm giving birth at any moment now! You almost missed it!" She pouted cutely.

"Ah, sorry! I'm really sorry." I hugged her. "I'll stay at your side until then."

"And after!" She said grumpily.

"Yes ma'am…" I nodded obediently. -----
