I am the God of Technology

Dante was speechless. "You know your own history better than me, so it's very unlikely."

Aisha could only shut up at that as her history was that of a tramp who had to use her powerful mouth skills to climb to the top. However, her complex and trauma about that had mostly been burned away by the hellfire, so she felt renewed.

Anyway, after the group was registered, Dante took them back to the dreadnought and then released Harold and Lucian, who had turned back into their normal selves, much like Aisha.

Dante then sent them back to the school and then came out of his cabin while walking down the street to use the school's internal transit system with casual smiles.

As you could imagine, there was a shock from those who were monitoring Dante's residence to see these two come out unscathed, as by now the whole universe knew they had disappeared after meeting Dante months ago.

To see the two of them come out naturally raised eyebrows and made many sneer. Did Dante think he could fool them with clones or AI to try and prove that he didn't kidnap them? Did he think no one in the Eternal Universe had tried to be 'clever' before?

As such, they were made to undergo rigorous testing and verification using the highest technological standard, but to the shock of the various factions, these two lads were actually legit!

The heck!

When the forces realized that they now had to release the hold on their two clans and provide an explanation, their faces became like they had eaten shit. After all, they could pressure the family and use the 'kidnapping' of the two lads as an excuse to blame it all on Dante, but the two lads had come back.

Even worse, they directly announced and spread everything to the entire universe, pinning the cause of the problem and the reason on those actually guilty, directly outing them for wanting to suppress Dante out of fear.

Naturally, the factions in question skillfully denied everything and asked for evidence, to which the two lads happily provided since their family had been suppressed for so long. This caused another wave of explosion on the Etranet as all the species in the universe laughed at the arrogant pure humans for infighting again.

This forced the Pure Human Council to take this issue seriously and declare certain punishments and bans on the clans that took part in the suppression. This made many races stop laughing as they were exposed to another part of human nature, the ability to be cruel to themselves!

The punishments weren't light and would practically cripple more than half of those factions and clans that took part in the suppression. Seeing that pure humans could be so wicked to each other, then what wouldn't they do to them, outsiders?

Interestingly, rather than focus on how impartial and staunch the Pure Human Council was, this only had the effect of making the non-humans even more closely knit and sure of their need to overthrow the reigning power.

However, universe politics was not on the mind of Dante and his crew at the moment. As it were, Dante had settled down his parents and planned to let them enter the next stage of their plans after he came back from the Zero Gate, while Aisha decided to stay with Beatrice after being amazed by her beauty and forcefully took her as her older sister.

The reason for all this was because today was the 28th of October and it was the date for the students to come out of the third run of the mock exam, but there was not much suspense since everyone already knew what happened within.

Dante's clone came out and went to the seven-day Black Land session that ended on November 4th, leaving 26 days until the opening of the Zero Gate. It was the final sprint of the preparation time, and all the other students were getting their minds and bodies ready for what would come next.

On the 4th, Dante went to the Student Enhancement Center for his full-on upgrade. He let them record his current SDI with a confident smile and entered the cultivation chamber.

There was a slight hiccup, though when they tried to inject Dante with the nanites necessary to form these two new upgrades because the needles couldn't even pierce his skin!

In the end, they had to rely on Dante himself, who cut his own skin and forcibly slowed down his regeneration enough to allow the various procedures to go through. One good thing about a high SDI was that he did not need to wait for long like the first time that took 8 hours.

He was done in seconds and popped right back out, feeling refreshed. He did not ask for a genetic upgrade this time because he wanted to exhaust what he had on his plate first before switching to the scientific method, lest the two interfere with each other.

He spent a few days testing his new power in anticipation for the Zero Gate descent, in which he was satisfied by the results thoroughly.

In this period of time, though, Beatrice had been acting weird in Dante's opinion. She had been avoiding him and seemed to be overwhelmed by something, always finding excuses to escape his presence as if he was a ferocious beast.

In the end, Dante could not take it anymore. He finally confronted her about it on the 7th of November when he finally managed to pin her down and prevent her from escaping. After being pressured by him, Beatrice finally pushed him back slightly and revealed the truth.

"I…I think I'm pregnant…!" She stated with a shy look.

It was like thunder struck Dante at that moment. Obviously, the way they had been copulating like rabbits the past few months would have naturally yielded results especially since they were both high SDI beings.

The rule of 'the stronger one was, the lower the chance of conception' was true only when there was a great gap in SDI or power between two people. However, Dante boosted his SDI up using technology and even activated all his magical powers during the procreation process.

Not only did he match Beatrice in those moments, but you could say he "invested" everything into his "shots".

As Beatrice was still human and not some cosmic beast despite her high SDI, she was still in possession of all human functions.

Otherwise, how could Portia have even gotten pregnant with her in the first place?

Dante was thrust into joy due to this and was overwhelmed. He, a young man who was still looking up to his parent was now going to be a parent as well.

Naturally, he shared this news with his loved ones and Peter and David couldn't help but look at Dante strangely.

So before you even introduced her to us, you had already cooked the rice? Not only did you cook, but you cooked it so well that you only needed one batch to feed a whole family?

As for Aileen, she immediately saw things from a different angle and knew the kind of fear and worry Beatrice must be experiencing at this time. As such, she immediately comforted her and took Beatrice through various pre-natal care procedures.

David, Peter, and Dante were not able to help much in this regard, not out of uselessness as the two older men had seen and helped many times, but because the kind of pre-natal care Beatrice was involved in was mostly psychological.

Her body was too perfect stats-wise to develop any problems, so it was a matter of soothing her mind to ease the gestation process. Dante stopped practicing and spent all his time with Beatrice, also checking in on Augeus to see how Portia was doing.

Good news, Portia was currently 90% broken down and should soon undergo rebirth! It was estimated that she should be alive in time to assist Beatrice through the gestation process as well as actually be there when her grandchild was born!

Everything was going perfectly at this moment, and Dante was particularly on guard that something nefarious might happen. However, nothing did happen in this regard, as there was nothing that really could happen.

The family enjoyed peace for the rest of November until December was only a day away and all the Unique Batch students were gearing up for entry into the world that would decide their fate.

Dante himself was only slightly nervous. He had already surpassed the highest power in the Zero Gate, so he was not worried about his safety. He was more worried for his quantum clone that would enter the home universe's Zero Gate on the other side and hoped it was not too different from the Eternal Universe's version.

He was also curious about which fruits he would get this time, and whether they would be unique compared to what had already existed since time immemorial or they would be repeats.
