Death... and me

Calina looked at the little boy and didn't see any problem. "Alen... Alen, it is, then. Hi, Alen!"

"Hey, Alen." Rean immediately got close. "I just hope your blood isn't as cold as your father's."

Roan took that as a compliment, though. "Cold is the way to go."

As mentioned before, twelve months had passed. With that, let us return to the present when Rean's kid finally showed himself. Alen didn't look any different from a normal human. Black hair and a baby-like face. However, Rean's kid turned out to be just like him. White hair and eyes. "She's just like me," Rean couldn't help but mention.

Calina was there as well, holding Alen as she complimented them. "Congratulations, you two. She's beautiful!"

Kentucky was the first one to raise his hand after that. "Can I choose the name this time?"

"Only if it's a good one," Qia answered with a smile.

Kentucky nodded in response. "Linca! How about it?"

"That's quite a weird name," Qia and Rean couldn't help but say in response. "We better select something else."

Kentucky obviously didn't like their response to his suggestion. "You guys don't know what's good. Linca is a great name."

"Then why don't you go to the Minokawa Race's territory, find yourself a female Minokawa, have sex with her, and make her lay eggs until you get a female kid? Then you can totally give that female Minokawa this name. We won't rob it from you," said Rean.

Kentucky's expression changed after that. "N-No thanks. I don't want to turn out like my father." Kentucky remembered very well how Jeskli-go said that his mother beat his father many times to get him to do what she wanted.

Rean looked around and couldn't help but comment, "So, Roan didn't even bother to come, huh?"

Calina sighed in response. "He didn't want you to be there when Alen was born, so I guess he's just showing what you should have done in his own way."

Rean pondered over it for a bit and sent Roan a message through their Soul Connection. 'Hey, I need a name for my girl. Any ideas?'

Roan, who was cultivating with Celis, opened his eyes. 'Why don't you call her Orgy then?'

Rean laughed in response. 'Hahahaha! You still haven't gotten over that? Come on, it was a joke. Besides, Orgeo was a terrible name. I helped you there.'

'Hmph!' Roan didn't think it was bad, though. But then again, Orgy didn't leave his head anymore every time he thought about the name Orgeo. 'I don't have any ideas. Just call her whatever you want.'

Rean didn't believe him. 'Liar! I'm sure you definitely have something in mind. You always have something in mind for everything. It won't hurt to share your thoughts.'

'Very well, then just use Fay. It's simple and convenient. There you go, the first thing that popped up in my head.' Roan finally decided to say something so that Rean would leave him alone. He wasn't lying. He only thought about this name now because Rean insisted.

Celis couldn't help but ask after that, 'Why did you two even wait until the kids were born to select a name? You could have done it months ago.'

'Calina and Qia insisted on not checking the gender of the babies,' Rean mentioned.

'I see...' Celis could only nod after that and continued cultivating.

With that, Rean looked at Qia, who was in a heated discussion with the others about a name for the girl. "Roan gave an idea."

"What?!" Kentucky, Qia, and Calina were taken aback. They didn't expect Roan to actually get involved.

Rean could tell what they were thinking. "Don't worry. It was basically something he just thought up on the spot. Anyways, what about Fay? That's what he suggested."

"Fay?" Qia was surprised that it wasn't a bad name. "Roan was quite considerate... for a name that he thought up on the spot."

"He also suggested Orgy first. Hahaha!" Rean added with a laugh.

Qia's mouth twitched in response. It was obvious that Roan still held a grudge about what Rean had mentioned three months ago. "Let's just ignore that."

Kentucky still found it a good name, though. "Fay, huh? Why not? It somehow reminds me of Rana in the Huring Continent."

Rean had to admit Kentucky was right. "Indeed, that's a very fairy-like name. Rana is now part of the Fairy Race, so it does remind me of her. Could it be Roan selected this name because of that?"

Calina, who was holding Alen, immediately shook her head. "Do you think he really thought about that? Besides, he said that he wouldn't use a name that reminds you of other people. Something about individuality. As much as he doesn't like Rean, I doubt he would go against that belief on Rean's kid."

Everyone in the room nodded in agreement. Indeed, Roan wouldn't have thought that long for Rean's sake.

"So, how about it, Qia? I quite like Fay." Rean finally decided on it. There was also the fact that he couldn't think about anything else.

Qia pondered over it for a bit and nodded as well. "Why not? Roan might not like to use names that remind you of other people, but I don't think it's a bad thing. Rana is this little girl's aunt, after all. As far as we know, she's fine too."

Rean agreed with her. "Very well. It will be Fay, then."

During the next few days, Rean completely separated himself from all jobs in the sect, including the Circuitry Formations. He wanted to spend some time with only Qia and Fay. The dragons didn't like that very much, but they didn't complain. They were still in the process of building antennas, and they had learned quite a lot. Rean wasn't as that important in every aspect as before. Not to mention that they finally understood that Klaus, Grupin, and the other Formation Masters really knew a lot about them.

Even with the elders' help, like Placake's Spatial Power, it would take many years to build all the necessary antennas and make all the connections. In fact, that was exactly what happened.
