Chapter 233 - Ruli Is Distressed
Meanwhile, in the Ribel kingdom.
Aquarius opened her eyes and stared at the chandelier on the ceiling.
"Day 10 without my dear husband…" she muttered.
She got up from the bed and stretched her cramped body.
YAWN~!
After warming up, she sighed in frustration.
"There is still a month and a lot of time left before my blessing ceremony. Then, I would finally be able to travel with Zach."
She smiled and said, "He said he would come here to pick me up because he has something special planned. I wonder what that could be?"
Aquarius pondered for a while as a sudden thought crossed her mind.
"What if… he is planning to marry me?" she wondered. "And maybe Aurora and aunt Ruli too?"
Aurora and Aria had become great friends with Aquarius, and they had told Aquarius about their relationship with Zach. She was surprised to know that Aurora wasn\'t his wife, since she had noticed that Zach always favored Aurora more than Aria—who was his official wife.
Aquarius left the room and made her way to Ruli\'s room, which was not far away from her room.
KNOCK~ KNOCK!
She knocked on her door, but she didn\'t reply.
\'Weird. She is the one who usually comes to wake me up, but now she is not only late, she isn\'t answering the door either…\'
However, Aquarius noticed that the door wasn\'t locked, it was simply closed. So she opened the door and entered Ruli\'s room, only to see her curled up on the bed in a sitting position.
"Aunt Ruli?" Aquarius called out to Ruli and asked, "What\'s wrong?"
"..."
Ruli didn\'t answer, so Aquarius realized it was something serious.
She sat on the bed beside her and asked again, "Are you okay?"
"I am not sure…" Ruli replied in a low voice.
"Well, that\'s not what I was expecting to hear. I wonder what happened."
GASP!
Aquarius suddenly gasped in shock, as though she had realized what Ruli was anxious about.
"Don\'t tell me that mom found out about your relationship with Zach?!"
"No. Otherwise, I would be dead."
"So what else could make you anxious?" Aquarius asked curiously.
"You must know about us, sea creatures\' biology, right?"
"That\'s the first thing we are taught to know our body better, yeah," Aquarius nodded.
"What do they say about our reproductive system?" Ruli asked in a calm voice.
"It\'s basically the same as the humans, with some changes. What about it?" Aquarius wondered with a puzzled look on her face.
"How much time does it take for the seed to start ovulating? It\'s seven days, if I remember correctly," Ruli stated. "And today is the seventh day since Zach left."
"Oh…" Aquarius finally realized what Ruli was trying to say.
"But there is a requirement that we must get creampied 15 times in one night to be able to meet the chance to get pregnant."
"He creampied me over 50 times in 2 days," Ruli uttered nonchalantly.
"Wow!"
Even though Ruli was in distress, Aquarius couldn\'t help but aw after hearing her future husband\'s crazy sex drive.
Ruli shot a soft glare at Aquarius and said, "I can\'t believe you seriously just did that."
"I am sorry!" After a brief pause, she asked, "You are sad, so does that mean… you didn\'t get pregnant?"
Ruli turned to Aquarius and slowly opened her mouth to say, "I am… pregnant."
"Oh! Congratulations!" Aquarius exclaimed with a wide smile on her face. But her smile vanished when she saw a distressed look on Ruli\'s face.
"Wait, why are you not happy about this?" Aquarius asked with a confused look on her face. "Could it be that you don\'t want his child?"
Ruli shook her head violently in disagreement and said, "Of course, I want his child. And I was the one who asked him to impregnate me in the first place. But now that I am pregnant, I don\'t know what to do…"
"True. You are a widow now… wait, can\'t you just say that you are pregnant with Maxim\'s child?" Aquarius suggested. "Since Zach killed him around the same time."
"That\'s what I had told Zach when he asked me the same question. But I truly don\'t want to claim Zach\'s child as that man\'s. I feel disgusted."
Aquarius pondered for a while and said. "How about you come together with me when Zach comes to pick me up?"
"I don\'t think your parents would allow that…" Ruli muttered in a disdainful tone.
"I will take care of that. I will tell them I want someone with me, and then I will suggest your name. You simply have to act a little and agree on that." Aquarius reassured and continued, "And we will be back here after 9 months. So I will tell mama and papa that it\'s mine and Zach\'s child since we both look the same anyway."
"Are you sure? What if things get out of hand?" Ruli asked with an anxious look on her face.
"Well, to be honest… is there any need for you to be worried? Zach\'s father is most likely the one who killed my grandpa, and I can see that papa fears Zach and his father. Even Uncle seventh acknowledges his power, and he was also friends with Zach\'s father."
"Yeah…"
"Also, he jokes with Zach, so I think they are on good terms. Not only that, but Zach now also has the Sea\'s blessing." Aquarius looked into Ruli\'s eyes and said, "In other words, even if you openly reveal that you are carrying Zach\'s child, regardless of our customs, I don\'t think anyone would dare to raise their voice against it."
"Is that…so?"
"Yeah, just by the mere fact that you have Zach\'s child in your womb, that alone makes you the most respectable and feared woman in the entire Sea realm," Aquarius asserted in a solemn voice.
"I wish I could give this news to Zach. But unlike others, we are not part of the game. We don\'t have HUD, so we can\'t even send him a message."
"Let\'s just wait for 2 months to end, and then we will be together with Zach."

Author\'s Note- The next chapter will be the last chapter of VOLUME 2.
Surely, I have knotted all the loose ends and ended the volume properly.
