Chapter 258: Shocking News
-----
After breakfast, Frank had decided to spend the day relaxing, while also preparing within his Divine Realm.
He used a Shadow Clone within his Divine Realm to practice several Skills and Magic Spells to increase proficiency over time (as he always did) and also used his Shadow Clone to practice the use of Gram.
After the Light Clone Skill awakened into Spectral Shadow Clone, Frank gained the ability to produce another clone, being able to have two at the same time.
Additionally, he could separate them for large distances, although not as large as leaving one within the divine realm of Abraddon.
For Abraddon\'s Divine Realm and the training and leveling of the Gods, he left a separated piece of his soul which took his form, it was specially designed to produce Hunting Domains and nothing much else, and it didn\'t even possess as much power either.
The Shadow Clones were able to use the majority of Frank\'s Spells and Skills, although they were not as Strong, not at all, even after becoming rather strong after the Skill awakened, the Spectral Shadow Clones were still rather vulnerable and couldn\'t take more than five hits before disappearing.
It could be said that they had around 10% of Frank\'s total stats, they were weak, indeed. And they didn\'t share his equipment bonus stats either, but they shared 100% of his Mana.
He left one of such Clones practicing Demon Blade Techniques while using Gram, but Gram\'s Curse made them disappear after around 1 minute, so he had to constantly produce a new clone every minute, which was even better as he was able to increase Skill proficiency through that.
Additionally, he left another Clone doing all the other Skills over and over again.
This was nothing but a daily routine for Frank. However, his Skills had grown so strong that daily training using them constantly wouldn\'t net as much Skill proficiency as fighting a strong enemy, possibly above Rank 4.
Because Frank wanted to spend more time alone with Gwendolyn, the two decided to go on a little date today, going out into the beautiful streets of Westwind while chatting around.
Gwendolyn might be a few years older than Frank, but the two were always able to talk a lot, and if there was no one to interrupt them the two lovers would chit-chat for hours and hours.
Despite the differences between races and worlds, they were indeed quite matching with one another.
As the two finally walked out of Yurei, Gwendolyn glanced at Frank with a gentle and sweet smile.
Frank felt a bit flustered over her constant glare…
"Do I have something on my face?" he asked casually.
"Ah… No. I just… I like to see you being happy… You are smiling if you didn\'t notice," said Gwendolyn.
Gwendolyn quickly startled Frank as he quickly noticed that he indeed had a mild smile, as if he felt quite relaxed and happy, even his eyes seemed to exude serenity.
"Well, what\'s so wrong with that? I was looking forward to date between the two of us and no one else… I love to be with everyone but…" said Frank.
"I know, you really just wanted to be with me, didn\'t you?" asked Gwendolyn rather teasingly.
"I am always with you!" said Frank.
"Fufu, you know what I meant~," said Gwendolyn while chuckling a bit. Despite having matured a lot, Frank was still adorable to her.
"I am always quite curious about what\'s inside of your mind…" sighed Frank.
"Aw, come on. You never go that off when you guess it. Probably thinking dumb stuff anyways," said Gwendolyn.
"So you do admit that you think dumb stuff? The prideful Gwendolyn?" asked Frank teasingly.
"I-I am not prideful! …Was I?" asked Gwendolyn.
"Well, a bit… But not it is not like I don\'t like that pride of yours," said Frank.
"You like prideful women?" asked Gwendolyn.
"…T-That\'s too much of an embarrassing question…" said Frank.
"Oh? The prideful Frank gets embarrassed over such a little question?" asked Gwendolyn.
"Eh? Using the same thing against me? That\'s playing nasty…" said Frank while hugging Gwendolyn\'s hip as the two reached the main street and began to wander around.
As the two walked around Frank noticed that Gwendolyn\'s fluffy orange-brown-colored tail was waving around happily, which he found rather cute.
Despite her calm and often prideful nature, Gwendolyn always showed that she was happy when she waved her fox tail around.
Frank gently caressed it as he couldn\'t really resist touching it anymore.
"Ah~! F-Frank?" asked Gwendolyn while blushing.
"So fluffy… Touching this is my right as your husband… right?" asked Frank.
"T-That\'s… But it is considered to touch someone\'s else tail like that in public…" said Gwendolyn.
"You\'re lying, no one around here cares what we are doing now… And I can keep caressing it as much as I want…" said Frank.
"Eeeh? Y-You!" said Gwendolyn while pouting a bit, she grasped Frank\'s ears and pulled it.
"Y-You\'re pulling my ears? Seriously?" asked Frank.
"B-Behave!" said Gwendolyn.
"You act like a mother even now?" asked Frank.
"Oh… Did I?" asked Gwendolyn.
"You did~," said Frank, touching Gwendolyn\'s tail again.
"Awuh! S-Stop! Geez…" sighed Gwendolyn.
Despite being a mother in her late twenties she was indeed quite adorable sometimes. Although she pulled Frank\'s ear, it wasn\'t as if it ever hurt him, and because he was using the Death Attribute Magic Spell "Nullify Presence", no one noticed the stupid things they were doing.
Despite being a couple they often acted like friends even. Although it was a slow change from the usual respect Frank had for Gwendolyn, after he got to know her better, he realized that she liked to play around like that.
"Awuh? What was that~? I felt like I fell more in love by just hearing it! Say it again," said Frank with a smug smile.
"N-No!" said Gwendolyn while blushing and averting her gaze.
"Now you\'re the one acting like a child…" said Frank with a smile, petting Gwendolyn and caressing her fox ears. Both of them always teased each other like this, so it was always "even" in a way. Although Gwendolyn was sometimes overwhelmed by Frank, it really didn\'t mean that she hated him or something. In fact, she always had fun with him.
"I was wondering something…" said Gwendolyn after a while, the two were now drinking ice cream while sitting close to each other while holding hands right in front of a beautiful plaza.
"Hm? Yes?" asked Frank.
Gwendolyn glanced at the children playing around the fountain for a bit as she glanced back at him.
"W-Would you like to have a child with me? Like… our baby," she asked.
Although Frank had said many times through his intercourse sessions with Gwendolyn about "giving her children" or "making her pregnant" in the heat of the passion, he had never truly considered the possibility of having a child with the one he loved. Well, he considered it but he still saw it as something distant.
"Having a child…" said Frank, glancing at the sunset.
He began to remember the time he spent with Gwendolyn since his first day on Terra and the many difficulties he had gone through, alongside the many happy moments he had also gone through.
This world had truly given him many moments of happiness. Meeting Gwendolyn, one of his strongest emotional pillars which was slowly healing his pained and troubled mind was one of the greatest gifts that coming to this world could have ever given to him.
Gwendolyn seemed a bit nervous, and Frank noticed this.
He needed to reassure her that he was someone reliable, that he could become a good father and also a husband.
"Of course I would want one, two, or even three… I really don\'t care how many. Well, maybe not so many… But yeah, I would gladly… have a child with you. It would actually just… make me incredibly happy," said Frank, considering the beauty of having a child, born from the consummation of love in between him and Gwendolyn.
Gwendolyn heard Frank\'s words as she almost skipped a beat… he really had a talent for making her always flustered…
"You have such talent on always making me skip a beat…" she sighed.
"Eh? What was that for? I was being serious…" said Frank.
"I know. And I… am extremely happy that you want it too…" said Gwendolyn as she tightly grasped Frank\'s hand.
Frank noticed her warm sweat on her hand, as Gwendolyn suddenly looked directly into his eyes with her beautiful emerald eyes.
"Frank… I think I am pregnant…" she said.
Frank was now the one that skipped a beat.
