"Don't worry, Ku Ming, I'm a demon, not a god. It'll be different. Do you know why I don't have any magic right now?" Wange's voice gently comforted the uneasy man before her.
Upon hearing this, Ku Ming's eyes showed a hint of confusion. Indeed... why did Wan Ge lose all her magical powers?
Wan Ge told the man before her that in the Demon Clan, they would never harm themselves for a child, never. They would never allow a child to excessively drain their power, even if it were their own flesh and blood.
Perhaps they were half right; most demons prioritize their own safety before pursuing their own ambitions. Demons certainly value self-preservation.
This has led to the current self-protection mechanism of all demons. When they have children, all their magical power resides in their inner core, which only supplies the power needed for the daily needs of the child.
Children cannot access their own inner core, nor can they actively absorb its power. The inner core is always by their side, and it will protect them in case of danger.
If the child still harms the mother under these conditions, the body will give birth prematurely, causing the child to leave the body early. Whether to use magic to continue to nurture the child or simply abandon it is another matter.
Looking at Ku Ming before her, Wan Ge said, "If you're worried that the power I give him isn't enough, you can impart a little power to him every day to protect him. Don't worry, he will never harm me. I promise!"
Wan Ge had only just arrived when Ruan Ruan told her about the demons in this world, which was something Wan Ge had only just learned. It has to be said that this was really a good thing.
Wange half agrees with the demon race's principle of loving themselves more than others. Without intentionally harming others, one must love oneself even more.
Even if that person is your own child, you should give your child love within your own circumstances.
"Really? He won't hurt you?" Ku Ming was still worried.
"Of course it's true." Wan Ge gently patted his head. "But during this time, my magic power will be in my inner core, so you have to protect me well."
Now, every time the inner core is activated, the body will feel somewhat uncomfortable, but as long as it is in a safe environment, the inner core will not be activated.
"I will definitely protect you." Ku Ming wanted to hug the person tighter, but was afraid of hugging too tightly, so he just hugged her gently but held her tightly.
…
Soon after, Kuming's father learned that Wan Ge was pregnant. He rushed to the temple where Kuming lived and found Wan Ge sitting under a peach tree eating peaches.
Ku Ming obediently stood aside and peeled the peach for her.
The late king's first thought was, "Do the peaches still need to be peeled?" His second thought was, "My daughter-in-law loves them!" He wanted to have more sent over.
Even before he got very close, he could already sense his grandson's strength. Judging from this, he shouldn't be much weaker than his father in the future.

[Writing this brought back some feelings. I hope that all mothers won't be morally blackmailed by various opinions. Having children isn't necessarily a bad thing, and it's possible to be happier without them. Similarly, I hope that every girl can love others while loving herself first, and that she can be happy whether or not she has a lover.]
