New Life, New Task: I'll Be A Mom Then!!!

Eli's heart dropped coldly on the floor. Her forehead started to perspire as she felt an extreme sense of uneasiness.

What could this mean?

Did someone tailed Leon and managed to get a hold of this information?

How many were they?

Were they allies or enemies? Will they use this information against him?

Most of all, how will this impact Leon?

She could feel that Leon had deliberately concealed the extent of his abilities to protect the people around him, his parents, the blades and now, his little family.

She could only pray that whoever discovered Leon's abilities were not their foes but their allies. At the very least, they would choose to be bystanders and not do anything.

Still feeling anxious, she scooped Little Han into her arms and hugged him warmly in her embrace.

"My baby, come give me some of your peace. I feel so worried for your dad…" She brought her face near Little Han's peaceful sleeping face as she closed her eyes to try and calm her emotions down.

"Why are you worrying about me?" Suddenly, an extremely magnetic and alluring voice softly travelled through Eli's ears.

"Are you afraid that I would forget our dinner time?" His voice followed teasingly.

"Leon.." Normally, Eli would try to bicker whenever Leon kept teasing her, but this time, she was too worried to even snide at his foxy actions.

Leon felt that Eli wasn't feeling good, he immediately sat beside her and looked at her with an earnest and attentive gaze, "Tell me, what's the matter?"

"It's like this…" Seeing that Leon was determined to know the cause of her worry, Eli immediately explained her discovery.

Just this morning, Eli had already told him about her abilities including the book and its capabilities. This time, Eli explained how the book functions whenever she tries to search for a person.

Upon knowing that Eli actually 'pinned' his information in the book of knowledge, he couldn't help but secretly smile in his heart.

It just feels so sweet when you know that the person you love also wanted to get to know you more.

ραпdα nᴏνa| сom How could he not be happy with that?

When he heard the next sentences, he finally understood why Eli was that worried for him.

"Leon, with this happening, coupled by that scary dream last night, I couldn't help but feel worried."

Eli still vividly remembered the scene where Leon was alone in the battlefield, surrounded by countless wolves and the corpse of his subordinates.

Her heart couldn't help but shudder in fear, for Leon to be pushed in that state, how prepared could the enemy be?

She couldn't help but associate this matter to that premonition.

Seeing that Eli was diving into overthinking again, Leon stretched out his arms and just hugged her without saying a word, just soothing her mood to calmness.

During the few months of knowing Eli, he was dazzled by her strong drive to be independent and capable.

Whenever she sets her eyes into something, her eyes would shine in determination, her way of expressing her opinions were so excellent and graceful, standing up straight with her head held high in confidence, and even her insights were beyond comparison.

But the only weakness she had was she was an overthinker.

The first time she overthought was during their first proper meeting, she even broke down so bad that she ended up fainting. Then he witnessed it happen again during her labor, earlier this morning, and even right now.

Whenever she overthinks, she would be in extreme panic, all her walls would be broken, her confidence almost non-existent, her calm and rational thinking would be in complete disarray, leaving her feeling extremely insecured, self deprecating and scared.

He wondered, what experiences did she encounter during her previous life that made her like this?

This left Leon helpless.

He didn't know what words to say. He also knows deep in his heart that right now, no words could penetrate her shaken heart until she calmed down.

Even so, he just chose to stay by her side and let her feel that the burden wasn't all hers to bear.

He hugged her and Little Han for a while, letting them be secured with his embrace.

These two people he cherished the most, he would do his best to keep them safe from harm, no matter who his enemies were!

Staying completely still in Leon's arms, the delicate scent of baby powder dominated Eli's sense of smell. She thought that the scent came from Little Han, but after some time, she discovered that it was coming from Leon's broad chest and neck.

"Leon.. are you the one who took half of Little Han's baby powder?" Eli, who was just buried in Leon's chest, suddenly looked up with her misty midnight eyes.

As soon as she looked up, she coincidentally saw that Leon was also looking back at her with a gentle expression, their faces only a few inches away from each other.

Her body suddenly felt like it was burning hot, as soon as Leon's breath gently touched her forehead. She found herself unable to draw her eyes away from Leon's beauty.

Oh, that tiny beauty mark under his eye was the most perfectly placed dot the Creator has ever made!ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

Leon couldn't help but gulp guiltily.

First was because his thoughts right now were to just lean a few inches forward and kiss Eli's forehead. How perfect their position were! How fitting the timing was!

Second was that he really did 'steal' some of Little Han's baby powder.

Eli finally woke up in her trance when she realized that Leon had a guilty expression on his face.

"So you did steal Little Han's baby powder!" She exclaimed accusingly.

"Eherm.. I couldn't help it, it smells good. Actually, it kind of suits my taste too.." Leon nervously averted his gaze towards Eli's accusing look.

He would never tell her that he switched from using his exclusive perfume blend that was even especially made by the Seirende's top perfumers, to Little Han's baby powder just because one time he saw Eli dressing Little Han while shouting,

"Oh, how adorably refreshing Little Han's scent is! Let Mommy shower you with kisses!!!"

"Who's the good smelling baby???"

"It's my baby Little Han~~~" Then the mother and son giggled happily as they played around.

He was envious!!! Alright!!!

He wanted to... smell good too!

If Eli likes the scent, then he should wear it too, so that Eli would find him smelling good too!

That's why he decisively took half of Little Han's baby powder and brought it with him.

"Pfttt!" Eli couldn't help but break into a reckless laughter.

This was the first time she saw a full grown man claim to love the scent of baby powder over the typical manly perfume scent.

'Is it because he became a daddy?' She couldn't help but be amused.

Leon couldn't help but feel hot in his face as a pink tint bloomed in his ears. "If you don't like it, I'll give it back." He said sulkily.

"Ah.. no, no. Haha.." Eli shook her head as she wiped the mist in her eyes, still happily laughing. "But really if you like it that much, I'll blend more for you!"

"Alright." Feeling pleased with Eli's commitment, he replied while gently patting her head, "Are you feeling alright now?"

"Uhn! Thank you Leon." Eli replied with a sweet smile.

May it be intentional or not, but she couldn't deny that Leon always had the power to calm down her uncontrollable state of mind.

"Oh, right, dinner is ready. Everyone is waiting outside!" Eli was back to being the typical queen of the house as she invited Leon outside.

The dinner set up outside was warm and lively as the golden yellow orbs of light were installed around the garden, lighting up the dining table brightly.

The smell of burning coal assaulted Leon's nose as he looked at the busy people, going in and out of the cottage, bringing out the meat and vegetables.

"This is?" Leon turned towards Eli with a curious expression, he never saw a dining set up like this.

"In my previous world, we called it Korean Barbeque Feast." Eli calmly explained.

As they sat around the table and prayed, she introduced the meal to everyone, from the lettuce and the vegetable side dishes, the egg stew, the sauces she made, and the marinated meat.

She also had the blades carve sets of bowls and chopsticks and tried to introduce to them how it was done in her world.

Of course, she still prepared tongs and the normal cutleries because she knew that they would have a hard time eating with chopsticks.

Too bad, there's still no rice, so she still had to make do with alternatives.

After Eli demonstrated how it is cooked and eaten, everyone enthusiastically went grilling.

The whole atmosphere was filled with the continuous sizzle of the grilled meat and everyone's exclamations of praise.

Leon was just as excited and pleased as the others.

When he first looked at the meat, he was skeptical because it was so thin, would it really have a taste?

But then after eating the first slice, his crystal blue eyes lit up in surprise. The meaty flavor from the alternate layers of fat and meat bursted in his mouth like fireworks!

"Delicious!"

The more he ate, the more fervent his expression was!

For a total meat lover like him, the taste was heaven! He took a few more slices and finally looked at Eli in with a fiery expression.

'Ahh, this woman! I must absolutely marry her!'
