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

"Wow, it was nicely done!" Eli gently brushed her fingers on the wig as she praised its craftsmanship.

"Of course! It was made by big brother Orion, he has the most artistic hands!" Von replied in a delighted tone as he heard Eli's praise. He had a look of pride for being part of the Forgeworn Family.

"Thank you for this, I wonder how could I pay the two of you?" Although she was already interacting with her god siblings, she was still particular when it comes to owing money.

"Nah, you know what we really like!" Von had a drooling smile on his face while he rubbed his palms together as if scheming for something.

"Hmm, oh well I have a new recipe. Would you care to try it first?" Eli replied, obviously understanding Von's request.

"Really?! Then let's do it for today's lunch!" Von almost destroyed his noble image when he drooled in excitement. "I can't wait to taste the food you make! That flavored fried chicken before was phenomenal!"

"No can do. I could only prepare the meal for dinner. If you really insist, then let's do it like this, why not invite Meredith and Orion to dinner later for dinner, so we can all taste my new recipe?" Eli suggested.

"That also works! I'll invite them along!" Von replied with an excited face.

The two caught up for a while until Von proceeded to discuss another matter.

"Then, Eli, what's your next plan? You more or less achieved your initial goals for the past few months. Are you ready now to reveal yourself?"

Carefully putting down her teacup, Eli paused and gently answered, "I plan to first appear in the Farauld Magic Institute. I wanted to join their magic research team to know more about the secrets of magical energy in Prasinos."

ραпdα nᴏνa| сom "Oh, I see! I can't wait for the world to see you! You do not know how angry I was whenever I see my business partners boast about how wonderful it was to have brilliant daughters in the family! Gah! If they see you, my little sister, they would surely have their faces slapped!" Von passionately declared.

It was actually too bizarre hearing him call Eli 'little sister' when he was literally shorter than her.

"Ahhh! It's nice to finally be able to boast a little sister in the family~~" He said ecstatically as he sipped his tea with great pleasure.

Eli could only helplessly smile at Von's excited behavior.

For three generations, they have been waiting for a female member of the family but to no avail. Luckily, the sons of the Forgeworn clan were very good at choosing their spouses.

All the Forgeworn daughters-in-laws were extremely dotted upon by the family. Nevertheless, the third generation daughter in-laws were equally elated seeing Eli joining the family as they know that their spouses longed for a sister.

"I plan to discuss this matter with Auntie Janine and Grandpa Ben. So that they could arrange everything at their side. Of course, I also plan to get the elder's permission for this." Eli commented.

"Hmm! Whatever it is, know that we fully support you on your plans! I wish you all the best!" Von sincerely replied.

--

Three weeks later, an imposing horse carriage bearing the golden insignia of the Farauld Family entered the bronze gates of the Farauld Magic Institute.

The carriage drew a lot of attention as it was seldom for the Faraulds to enter the Institute in this manner. They would always use teleportation arrays or beast mounts when they arrive at the institute's grounds.

The students around were clad in navy blue and dark green school gowns as they curiously crowded near the main building's entrance. These two colors represent two of the three main schools inside the institute.

The students wearing dark green gowns represent the School of Magic. The School of Magic educates students who would want to develop their magical aptitude whether as a caster, summoner, or devourer.

The students clad in navy blue represent the School of Academics. This branch of the school focused more on cultivating their knowledge of sciences, mathematics, economics, history, and so on, rather than magic.

The third main school of magic was the School of Magical Research, which was headed by Zeke, one of Eli's project team members. This institute welcomes students who have the desire to combine their strength in magic and knowledge in academics through magical research.

Unfortunately, the students who are willing to devote themselves to this study were very few compared to the first two schools. This was because one has to be talented in both aspects, not to mention the level of commitment needed to survive in the school.

It was also the reason why there were almost no students walking around wearing a red student gown - they confined themselves in the laboratories!

The carriage soon stopped in front of the main hall.

The main hall was a three-story building designed in a style that Eli could identify as the earth's French Baroque Architecture - uniform, powerful and majestic! The structure was made of a mix of marble, brick, and slate. Its gigantic columns added an imposing effect to its grandeur.

Upon seeing the opening of the carriage door, the onlookers unanimously kept silent as they craned their necks to see who the visitor would be.ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

They were also shocked to see that the vice-chairman, Bramwell, and the deans of the three main schools immediately went out from the main hall to welcome the people on the carriage.

The first person to get out of the carriage was Grand Master Reuben.

Everyone gasped in shock as they were really surprised that he showed himself personally after being in seclusion for almost five years.

"Greetings Headmaster!" Everyone greeted Grandpa Ben respectfully.

Grandpa Ben answered with a nod, then immediately turned his attention back to the carriage, where a young lady, wearing a simple yet elegant dress, gracefully went off the carriage.

As the young lady stood, everyone was captivated by her calm beauty and dignified aura. Her face cannot be described as a beauty that could destroy cities, but the aura she exudes is sharp and shrewd, tranquil yet intimidating at the same time. Her hair was shiny pale brown complimented her lively chestnut eyes.

"I wonder who that could be?"

"Maybe a relative of the Farauld Family?

"But the current Farauld Family only had one branch!"

"Then who could she be?"

"She looks so sharp and intelligent, I feel intimidated!"

Upon her entrance, the onlookers couldn't help but discuss among themselves her identity. They kept on guessing her background and how she was powerful enough to make the Headmaster escort her personally and the Vice-chairman along with the deans welcome her upon arrival.

"Ah! Finally, Young Eli, you are here!!!" Bramwell exclaimed in delight.

He immediately beckoned Eli and introduced her to the two deans. "You already know Zeke, so let me introduce you to Simonne, the dean for the School of Magic, and Athena, the dean for the School of Academics!"

"Greetings, Dean Simonne and Dean Athena! My name is Eli, it's a pleasure to meet you!" Eli immediately introduced herself.

Since she was about to become a member of the renowned Forgeworn and Farauld families, she no longer referred to herself as the 'humble one' to people below the status of the Imperial family.

"It is nice to finally meet you, Eli! Who would have known that the mysterious inventor who shook the magical research world would be this young and beautiful! Ah~ I look forward to exchanging opinions with you in the future! I am sure we will get along!" Dean Athena replied in an excited tone.

She was a woman already in her forties, yet her appearance and carefree attitude made people assume that she was still in her thirties. She looked with great anticipation knowing beforehand that Eli would soon join the Institute. Surely, she will learn a lot by interacting with her.

Even if she was already in her forties, she still yearned to learn more, as learning knows no age!

"I still feel regretful that I was not able to have a chance to join you in that legendary project... Sigh! If not for Zeke begging me to give the spot, I would have had the chance to work with you earlier!" Simonne also expressed his approving view of Eli, there was a tinge of regret in his eyes, yet he also had a hint of doting towards Zeke, his disciple now turned colleague.

"Aiyoo, now let us come inside so that you can all properly converse with Eli! The day is long, so please do not startle her so eagerly!" Grandpa Ben reminded the bunch as they completely forgot that they were still outside the hall.

"Ah, my mistake! Come come, let us continue our conversation inside!" Bramwell immediately responded to Grandpa Ben's comment and led the group inside the office.

Meanwhile, the crowd left outside instantly engaged in a fervent discussion.

"Did I hear it correctly, the young woman was the great inventor Eli?"

"Oh my goodness! I just met the mysterious inventor!"

"Ah common, slap me awake! I am afraid I'm just dreaming!"

"Who would have known that she's just a few years older than us! Sigh, I feel like I wasted my time all these years!"

"Ahhh, I hope she came here to become a teacher! If she does, I promise to go to the temple to pray every day for this blessing!"

Eli had no idea that with only three released inventions, she managed to become an epitome of excellence to the students of the Farauld Magic Institute!
