Nina carefully took the child from Gray's arms, held him in her arms and caressed him gently, with a smile on her face.
"good!"
"This baby is white and plump, and looks very healthy. You two can have a few more, and don't worry about raising them."
Glancing at Harvey and Gray, she smiled and said, "Just give birth and I'll arrange for someone to raise your children. The continuation of the family bloodline depends on you young people."
The couple smiled dryly.
Although they understood Nina's desire for family inheritance and bloodline prosperity, they did not want their children to be raised by others.
"aunt……"
Harvey was about to speak when his expression suddenly changed: "Don't!"
However, Nina's hands were shining with light as she gently stroked the child's head, her expression looking solemn.
Detection! It can check if a person has wizard talent.
However, this kind of magic may harm the body of the person being treated, especially a baby under one month old who is more delicate.
Generally speaking.
When a baby is one month old, the wizard family will set up a magic circle to detect whether the baby has wizard talent and avoid causing harm.
This is also the reason why there is a full moon wine celebration.
But obviously, Nina couldn't wait any longer.
"No!"
Compared to her husband's anxious expression, Gray, who was just a very weak mother, burst into a fierce rage and propped herself up to pounce on Nina:
"Don't hurt my child!"
"Don't!" Harvey's face changed, and he hurriedly stopped his wife: "Don't mess around, it will affect the casting... The consequences will be more serious."
Gray's body stiffened.
"Don't worry." Nina glanced at the two of them, her face turning cold.
"The detection technique I performed was an improved version and will not cause much harm to the baby."
"pity……"
She sighed, "I don't have wizard talent."
Having said this, he ignored Gray's hopeful look and handed the child to the maid behind him with an expressionless face.
"If it doesn't work this time, then let's have a few more." Nina took out a few bottles of potions from the magic storage device and placed them on the table: "I asked a few pharmacists for some potions that can help with pregnancy, and there is a chance of giving birth to twins."
"..." Harvey's face was dull: "Aunt, what do you mean?"
"It is your responsibility to continue the family bloodline." Nina said indifferently: "In addition to Gray, I will find you a few women of the right age who have wizard talent. You can try more."
"I have no objection to your relationship, but if a woman with wizarding gifts becomes pregnant, she is more likely to give birth to a gifted child."
"Aunt..." Harvey trembled: "You are crazy!"
"Gray's health hasn't recovered yet, and we still have to raise the child. We don't have any plans to have another one for now."
"As for finding another woman..."
He couldn't help but roar loudly:
"That's impossible!"
"You don't need to raise the child." Nina frowned. "The servants will do the raising of children. The most important thing for you now is to continue the family bloodline."
"What are you doing?"
She raised her eyebrows and raised her hand to hold down Gray who was rushing towards her.
"Give me back my child!"
Gray yelled with disheveled hair:
"Give me back my child!"
"Bang!"
Nina's face darkened, and an invisible force knocked the crazy Gray to the ground.
"Harvey, keep an eye on your wife."
"Let's go!"
After reprimanding Harvey in a low voice, she turned and walked outside with the baby in her arms.
"aunt!"
Harvey wanted to follow, but was pushed back.
Although he is a legendary knight, he has only been advanced for a short time and the gap between him and a late-stage first-ring wizard is too big.
Facing Nina, he was completely powerless to fight back.
"aunt!"
When Harvey struggled to get up and wanted to rush out the door, he was blocked by two figures.
"Master Harvey, please don't make things difficult for us."
Two senior wizard apprentices hired by the Walker family held magic wands and sealed the door through which he could exit.
"Bang!"
With a muffled sound, the heavy wooden door slowly closed.
Harvey gritted his teeth and stared at the wooden door in front of him, a feeling of powerlessness quietly rising in his heart.
"Senior wizard apprentice..."
His body went limp and he collapsed to the ground. He turned around to look at his wife, only to see Gray kneeling on the bed with a dazed expression and lifeless eyes.
* * * Night.
Four constructed puppets holding lanterns surrounded Nina and headed towards the dark forest ahead.
“Clatter…”
The leaves swayed.
Nina paused, and the constructed puppet immediately floated away.
“Come out!”
Nina tilted her head:
"Lewis, you are the patriarch of a clan after all. There is no need to hide like this, right?"
“Heh…” The nearby grass and trees swayed, and a figure blended in with them and walked out. He smiled faintly and said, “After all, this is not the Dream Market. For me, the sense of security is always… a little lacking.”

"Hmph!" Nina snorted: "Where's Kom?"
"Here we go." A deep male voice came from above, followed by two figures falling down:
"You two are early!"
Nina, Louis, and Kom, the patriarchs of the three remaining families in the Dream Market, and the only three first-ring late-stage wizards, all came here.
The three major families do not get along with each other, and it can even be said that they are hostile to each other, and the relationship has long been broken.
now,
Get together.
"I just arrived too."
Nina looked at the black-robed man beside Kom and spoke cautiously: "Who is this?"
"Let me introduce him to you." Kom smiled and stretched out his hand to the black-robed man beside him: "Garoa!"
"Nightmare Garoya!"
The man lifted his hood, revealing his ordinary facial features, and nodded at the two of them.
"Hello, both of you."
"It's him!"
"The legendary nightmare?"
Louis and Nina looked at each other, and saw the solemnity in each other's eyes, and subconsciously took a step back.
nightmare!
The most powerful person in the late first ring.
A well-known lone wizard in the neighborhood, known for his mystery, weirdness, and cruelty. He is especially good at fabricating dreams and invading other people's spiritual inner world. It is said that a second-ring wizard was once killed silently by this man.
"Don't be nervous, I was invited by a friend from the Six Rings Tower to deal with Connie."
Garoya smiled and said, "This requires your assistance."
"Connie?" Nina's beautiful eyes flickered: "The people in the Six Ring Tower don't intend to let him go?"
Among the people present, she was the only one who knew that the so-called 'Connie' was actually Carl, a disciple of the High Tower.
However, both 'Connie' and 'Carl' have offended the Green family of the Six Ring Tower.
She doesn't plan to reveal this secret for the time being.
"certainly!"
Kom nodded:
"No one has ever had a good ending after offending the Six Ring Tower, and Connie is no exception."
"But you also know that the commotion a few days ago was that a second-ring wizard intended to kill Connie by force, but with the help of the Dream Market Rules and the Wizard Tower, he had to retreat."
They both nodded.
As bystanders, they were well aware of the horror of the commotion, and were surprised that Carl was able to hold on.
"The Dream Market has a third-order field. It will be troublesome if there is no third-ring wizard to take action."
Nightmare Garoya interface: "The Six-Ring Tower has the ability to forcibly flatten the Dream Market, but there is no need, so let me take action."
"I need to get to Connie."
As long as he touches a person, or the target's clothing, hair, or blood, he can enter the other person's dream and kill them without being seen.
"Why should I help you?"
Nina spoke first: "This is a personal vendetta between the Six Ring Tower and Connie. It has nothing to do with us. Why should we cause trouble? If the operation fails, we will have to face Connie's revenge."
"He is a second-level holy knight. How long has it been since a holy knight was born in the Magic Forest?"
Louis nodded slightly.
"Heh..." Kom chuckled, "I know you have a good personal relationship with Connie, but you have to think clearly. Do you really want to fight against the Six Ring Tower for him?"
"and……"
"We all know Connie's strength. If we allow him to expand in the market, I'm afraid there will be no place for the three of us to survive."
"That's right!" Louis touched his chin, "No one doesn't want to possess the Dream Fragments, which are directly aimed at the third level... Connie is no exception. He may have come to the Dream Market just for the fragments in our hands."
Nina's face darkened.
