"Acha, thank you for your hard work."
After the priest and the clan chief left, Lin Bei quickly sat up and had Ali help him walk over.
Although there was a curtain blocking the entrance to the cave, a slight chilly wind was still blowing in as early winter arrived, making Jiang Cha too cold to move.
She had just secretly taken the medicine she bought from the points mall, and instead of feeling unwell, she felt incredibly healthy. Her constitution had improved significantly, and she was no longer as sensitive to the cold as before.
It's like... there's a bunch of little babies sucking on my belly, the feeling is indescribable.
It feels like an octopus's suckers are constantly wriggling.
It doesn't feel uncomfortable, but it's very strange.
She originally planned to leave immediately after the babies were born, but now that she has eight babies and a partner with mobility issues, leaving is too difficult.
"It's good that you know."
Although she didn't suffer much during childbirth, Jiang Cha wanted her partner to know how much she had sacrificed for him.
“It’s my fault for being so useless, causing Acha and me to suffer. I will ask my father to help you find a more powerful beast husband. If you don’t like the rabbit tribe, we can go to other tribes.”
Lin Bei looked at the furry giant rat on the bed, a hint of sadness in his eyes, but more than that, heartache. He trembled as he helped her tuck the blanket around her.
Ali's lips twitched. Although it's normal for a female to find a beast husband, since a female can't possibly have only one beast husband, it's quite rare to see someone as humble as Lin Bei.
"Let's talk about the future later. Your priority right now is to get better as soon as possible."
"Um."
Lin Bei lowered his head, his face flushed, and asked softly again, "Acha, may I see them?"
Ali immediately let go of Lin Bei and turned his back. Over the days they had spent together, he knew that Jiang Cha valued privacy, so he would avoid talking about her as much as possible.
Inside the cave, there was only Ali, a middle-aged male who had turned around, and the child's father, who was leaning against the stone bed with an expectant look on his face. Jiang Cha naturally couldn't refuse, so she lifted the blanket and let him see.
"So...so cute."
Lin Bei stretched out his slender fingers and gently tapped each child's head. "Be good and don't bother your mother, or your father will beat you."
"Pfft~"
Seeing how serious he was, Jiang Cha couldn't help but laugh out loud, "They've only just been born, they're so small, can they understand what you're saying?"
"Yes, the Beast God endowed us with combat power and the ability to transform. I believe that the inheritance was already present in them at the moment of their birth."
Lin Bei felt the chill outside and immediately withdrew his hand to warm her up with the blanket. "In my family, Acha comes first, and the kids come second. If they make you uncomfortable, wean them tonight."
Ali coughed lightly and couldn't help but say, "If the cubs don't get enough breast milk for a week, their survival rate will be affected."
Jiang Cha doesn't need to worry about this. Her cubs were born using fertility pills, and their health is much higher than that of ordinary beastmen.
Moreover, apart from two cubs with zero combat power, all the other cubs possess innate combat power.
Because Lin Bei was only at level one combat power when he got her pregnant, she inherited Lin Bei's combat power level at that time.
The cubs' innate combat strength is their level of special ability in this lifetime.
Although all males in the Beast World Continent will awaken their combat power and possess the ability to transform, not all males will awaken superpowers. To this day, very few males in their Rat Mountain tribe have superpowers.
However, six of the cubs born to Jiang Cha will possess superpowers in the future. Although their levels are not high, they will greatly enhance their ability to survive in the beast world.
But at this moment, Jiang Cha did not want to reveal this special characteristic.
Even if she wanted to wean early, the clan chief and priest probably wouldn't agree.
"Oh, one week it is then."
Ginger Tea raised its furry paws; oh dear, they were rather ugly.
If only the system could change the species, she, with her modern mindset, would not want to be a mouse at all.
She wanted to become a beautiful and fierce white tiger, or a silver lion if she wanted.
"Da da da..."
Suddenly, footsteps came from outside the door.
"Someone's here, go lie down quickly."
Ali quickly helped the immobile Lin Bei lie down on the bed.
According to the modern standard of 100 days for bone and muscle injuries to heal, Lin Bei's recovery has actually been quite fast.
The helplessness of not being able to take care of his partner and having to burden others made Lin Bei even more self-conscious.
Jiang Cha was looking outside the door and didn't notice Lin Bei's little scheme.
She saw the high priest Ragu enter with two unfamiliar females.
“Jiang girl, they are both my priest candidates, one is named Ajiao, and the other is named Ahong.”
"They will take care of you from now on."
The priest turned to the two reluctant females and instructed them, "Newborn cubs are most susceptible to illness. It will be easier for you two to stay here and observe their health."
"Only by mastering medical skills and having the ability to heal our people can we ensure the continuation of our bloodline and allow our Rat Mountain tribe to continue to thrive."
"You must take good care of the cubs and protect the young females, so that our tribe can continue to thrive and grow!"
High Priest Ragu's impassioned speech was partly intended to instruct the two candidates, and partly to address Jiang Cha.
Jiang Cha deliberately squinted her eyes and didn't give any reaction.
The two females, however, had tears in their eyes and were filled with excitement.
"Thank you, Grandma Ragu."
"We understand."
"We won't let Grandma Ragu down."
They spoke almost in unison, making it sound like a rally.
After the priest finished giving his instructions, he left, and the two men came over to examine her and the cub.
The blonde woman introduced herself first: "Sister Jiang, my name is Ajiao. I am twenty years old. I have four husbands. I have been married for two years and have just given birth to one cub."
The gray-haired female looked at the many cubs with envy and whispered, "My name is Ah Hong. I've been married for three years and my fertility is pretty good. I chose five beast husbands for my coming-of-age ceremony, but I haven't been able to conceive yet."
After checking her body, they covered her with a blanket again. Gillian seemed afraid that she would be bored, so she started to chat with her.
"Sister Jiang, you are amazing! You were diagnosed as having a stone woman, but you got pregnant in less than half a month and gave birth to so many babies at once."
Jiang Cha smiled awkwardly and didn't respond.
Gillian Chung added, "Unlike me, although the tests showed that my fertility was good, I only had one child in two years."
Although it was a complaint, you could tell there was no malice in it.
Just treat the ginger tea as a rant.
Ah Hong, standing to the side, hesitated, looking at Jiang Cha expectantly, but Jiang Cha hadn't said anything yet.
Unable to resist biting her lower lip with her tiny white teeth, her face flushed, she quickly asked, "Little Sister Jiang, do you have any tips for having babies that you can share?"
