A Guide to Raising Your Natural Enemy

64. Giving Birth to an Egg

Robot 006 soon brought a rich meal. Seeing the food, Shu Shu momentarily forgot that he might be carrying a snake in his stomach and hurriedly began to eat.

His appetite was growing bigger at the present moment. Before, he worried that he would make the tumor grow bigger if he ate too much, so he did not dare to eat and drink gluttonously. Now though . . . he was pregnant with a child, ah! Whether it was pregnant women or pregnant men, they all had the right to eat and eat and eat!

However, it seemed that you also couldn\'t eat too much because the child would be too big, which would make the delivery very difficult.

Shu Shu ate half of the food and then started to feel entangled thinking of this matter . . . .

"What\'s wrong?" Edgar watched Shu Shu anxiously. "Do you feel uncomfortable? Or is the food not suitable to your taste?"

"Can I have a Caesarean section?" Shu Shu turned toward Edgar.

"You can!" Edgar immediately replied. Although the entire capital star now believed that he was a beastman who made a mess of his physiology class, but in fact . . . even if that class did not require taking an exam, he still studied diligently.

Sub-beastmen could certainly have a Caesarean section, and it would not affect them at all.

"I feel reassured now." Shu Shu began to immerse himself in gorging himself.

Edgar was somewhat at a loss and didn\'t understand why Shu Shu suddenly brought up this subject.

In the meantime, Shu Shu already ate nearly everything in front of him. After his stomach was stuffed full, he suddenly remembered the dishes he had ordered at the Imperial Plaza. "Haven’t they made the dishes I ordered at the Imperial Plaza? If they have, don\'t waste it!"

Shu Shu looked at Edgar with an "I want to eat" expression on his face.

"I’ll have them deliver it!" Edgar stated without the slightest hesitation. Now he simply couldn’t wait to offer everything he had to Shu Shu.

Thus, countless people who had hurried to the vicinity of the Imperial Plaza to watch the bustling scene after seeing the live broadcast and even the noblemen who directly went there to have a meal saw the Imperial Plaza’s people, which always refused takeout or home delivery, go to the Imperial palace to deliver food. It was said that . . . the crown princess was hungry.

The food from the Imperial Plaza was very, very delicious. Although Shu Shu was already full, but after circulating his spiritual power to help digestion, he still ate a lot. As for the rest . . . it was all eaten by Edgar.

When Edgar finished eating, Chris and Ian came together.

The emperor and the empress received a very big shock today, but they had experienced great winds and waves after all, so they already calmed down now.

As soon as Ian entered the door, he turned toward Shu Shu and asked concernedly, "Shu Shu, are you all right?"

"No problem, I’m very good!" Shu Shu showed a big smile to Ian. He now knew that he was not growing a tumor, so he became relaxed and felt his vigor thoroughly restored.

"It’s good if you’re all right." Ian’s gaze fell on Shu Shu’s belly. After staring at Shu Shu’s belly, he wrinkled his brows and turned toward Edgar. “Shu Shu’s belly, the child looks like he’s five or six months old . . . . When did you make Shu Shu pregnant with a child?"

Five or six months ago, his son was still a fallen beast . . . . He wouldn’t have bullied Shu Shu in his beast form, right?

Thinking of this, Ian had an urge to rush toward his son and beat him.

Edgar’s line of sight met with his mother’s, and he was somewhat speechless. He truly didn’t go and bully the sub-beastman in his beast form! The child in Shu Shu’s stomach really grew too fast. If it were not for this, they also wouldn’t think that he was a tumor . . . .

"The child should have been conceived on the wedding night." Shu Shu answered Ian’s question, but his face was full of doubts. "But, why would I get pregnant?"

"Silly child, you’d get pregnant naturally because you’ve eaten the beast bead." Ian stared amusedly at Shu Shu, guessing that Shu Shu probably didn\'t know anything at all about this matter. He then straightforwardly turned his head and drove out his own son and partner, saying that he was going to have a conversation about sub-beastmen with Shu Shu.

Ian gave Shu Shu the physiology lesson that all teenagers in the Beastman Empire had to learn.

It turned out that the sub-beastmen in this place originally had no internal reproductive organs. Only after eating the beastman’s beast bead would they grow those organs and be able to get pregnant . . . .

Shu Shu completely didn’t know about this and, as it happened, ate Edgar’s beast bead . . . .

"Edgar was too much! He didn’t even know to tell you about these things." Ian, seeing Shu Shu’s expression of suddenly seeing the light, was full of blame toward his son.

"I guess he didn\'t expect . . ." Shu Shu replied. He began to think about the entire process of the development and at once realized that Edgar probably thought that he was a beastman and so didn\'t anticipate this point.

However . . . he was definitely not one of the beastmen of the Beastman Empire whom were not affected when eating the beast bead; he was a daemon.

After a daemon changed into a human form, his/her body was exactly the same as that of a human being. Because of this, some daemons could even have children with humans . . . . After he ingested the beast bead that became a womb, he would naturally be able to get pregnant.

Shu Shu was obviously a male hamster, but he suddenly had a baby son. He actually felt a bit weird, but he did not feel annoyed at all. He previously thought that he was doomed to not have any children in his lifetime. Now that he could have one, it was a blessing, especially if the delivery didn’t hurt . . . . No, there was one more thing . . . .

"It’d be great if the baby isn’t a snake!" Shu Shu could not help saying.

"That’s right, it\'s best if you don’t give birth to a snake but a sub-beastman instead! Only when you have a sub-beastman can you feel like having a child. A snake . . ." Ian recalled how Edgar was when he was a child . . . . If it was a baby beastman, he simply didn’t need looking after, ah! It seemed like you could just casually threw him aside and let him roam around, and he would grow up already.

"I also prefer a sub-beastman." Shu Shu said. Sub-beastmen were the same as humans. How cute would it be if he had a human baby!

Both of them wanted a sub-beastman baby and immediately started to chat up a storm.

On the other side, Edgar and Chris were also talking, but they did not mention the child. Rather, they talked about Jonathan who had escaped.

According to the details they had dug out, Jonathan had begun to groom talent many, many years ago and then planted them around Edgar.

Although Jonathan and Chris had no blood relationship, but they grew up together from childhood, and Chris attached great importance to him. It was not difficult at all for him to do these things.

When Edgar almost died one year ago, the person who tampered with Edgar\'s mech was Chris’ childhood friend. Besides being Chris\' good friend, said beastman was also Jonathan\'s admirer.

That mech master had been in love with Jonathan. Even if Jonathan married the Duke of Mund, he did not forget Jonathan nor marry another sub-beastman, keeping his single status all along. It was probably because of this that he listened to Jonathan’s words and made a move against Edgar. Afterwards, he even shouldered all the blame.

As for why the guards around Edgar didn\'t keep pace with Edgar at that time, it was naturally because there were Jonathan’s people there.

Jonathan harmed Edgar and then, probably thinking that it was not enough, ruined Edgar’s reputation in the capital star by looking for a beastman whose beast form looked very similar to Edgar’s to injure somebody while pretending as Edgar . . . .

And this time . . . . Chris’ eyes flashed with hatred. Ian trusted Jonathan and so told him about the matter of Edgar having no beast bead. At that time, Chris and Ian even considered that if Edgar had no children in the future, they might let Calvin’s children inherit the Imperial family’s property. And the result?

Jonathan knew that Edgar had no beast bead, but he, unexpectedly, was still unwilling to let Edgar off and even found Donald to seduce Shu Shu . . . . If Edgar really hadn\'t had the beast bead, and if they hadn\'t found out about Jonathan\'s previous deeds, and if Donald had stayed at Shu Shu’s side longer . . . .

Chris didn\'t dare to imagine the possibility of his son becoming mad should his son\'s partner was really snatched.

"No matter how I think it over, I still don\'t understand why he would do such things!" Mentioning Jonathan, Chris\' face was very ugly.

His parents cherished Jonathan very much, and because Jonathan was a sub-beastman, their concern and care for Jonathan even surpassed those for him. He himself also loved this sub-beastman younger brother dearly and had never treated him unfairly.

And Jonathan? He actually wanted to kill his son!

When Chris thought of this point, he hated Jonathan’s guts.

"Does he have any animosity toward the Imperial family?" Edgar asked. Jonathan practically looked like he ran into a foe who had killed his father when dealing with the Imperial family!

"Impossible!" Chris immediately responded. "Jonathan\'s parents both died of illness, and he was not too young then." The Imperial family and Jonathan’s family had absolutely no hatred and desire for revenge whatsoever.

What the hell was the matter with this person then? Edgar felt rather helpless and then thought of the Duke of Mund and Calvin. "What about Calvin and his father?"

"Calvin shouldn’t know about this. As for Mund, I’m not clear." Chris said. Jonathan and the Duke of Mund lived on another planet, and they were the closest partner of each other. He was not sure whether the Duke of Mund knew about everything Jonathan had done or not, but Calvin should not know.

When they arrested Calvin, Calvin was arranging people to go to the Imperial Plaza to save Shu Shu. This Deputy Bureau Chief of the Police Department who always lived in the capital star could be said to be stunned when he was arrested.

"I’m going to see Calvin." Edgar said.

Chris nodded.

Seeing that Shu Shu and Ian were chatting very happily, Edgar reckoned that they were going to chat for a while. So he took the aircraft and quickly went to the prison. His aircraft had just flown halfway when it was stopped by Myer’s aircraft.

"Is there something the matter?" Edgar stared at Myer, frowning.

"Why was Calvin arrested?" Myer also stared at Edgar with a frown.

The previous live broadcast made him not in the mood to work. It could be said that he had watched the live broadcast from start to finish, and after watching it, he suddenly had a feeling of weariness.

He liked Edgar for so many years and always thought that he could definitely wait for Edgar. And the result? Edgar already had a child now, but he never gave him more than a glance.

He was very much beaten and felt like requesting leave of absence to return home and rest, but, unexpectedly, right at this moment, he actually learned about some news—Calvin was arrested, and the Imperial family appeared personally.

Why did the Imperial family arrest Calvin without rhyme or reason?

Although the man he loved had always been Edgar, but Calvin was also a friend . . . . Myer hurriedly flew over to find Edgar, hoping to ask and be clear about this.

"You go with me." Edgar said, and his aircraft continued to fly ahead.

Myer was a little taken aback and then followed Edgar closely.

Calvin was locked up in the prison. There were many people on hand watching him, but he had not been subjected to any unfair treatment at all. Even so, his face was very ugly.

When he was just arrested, he thought someone was playing a joke on him. As a result . . . he soon saw so much evidence of his mother conspiring to murder Edgar.

He wanted to say that everything was false and impossible, but with so much evidence placed in front of him, it was obviously pointless . . . . The matter of his mother harming somebody simply couldn’t be faked.

No wonder when he made his police subordinates work hard to investigate this matter, they couldn\'t find anything, and even some evidence was destroyed. As it turned out, the culprit was his mother, and there were actually his mother’s people among his subordinates.

After knowing all of these, Calvin was practically lost for words. Seeing Edgar and Myer appeared in front of him, he stared blankly for a moment and then said to Edgar, "I\'m sorry."

"This matter has nothing to do with you. Once the investigation is clear, you can come out." Edgar said. Calvin did not participate after all, so it was impossible to keep him locked up. However, his position would likely be gone.

"I\'m sorry." Calvin apologized once again, forcing a smile. His mother would start with Edgar maybe because it concerned him? He always liked Myer, but Myer liked Edgar. At that time, hearing that Myer’s father and the Imperial family were negotiating Myer’s marriage, he was very hurt and once sought his mother to talk.

He had never linked this matter with Edgar\'s being harmed. However . . . it was after he had sought his mother that Edgar had an accident.

"It has nothing to do with you." Edgar said. He was definitely not a person who was good at comforting people. After finishing this sentence, he did not know other pertinent things to say. At this time, his communication device started to ring.

There was a short message on his communication device, which came from Shu Shu, "I love you."

Edgar was stunned and then could not help but show a happy expression on his face. He didn\'t even want to stay here any longer.

"You can rest assured that you’ll be free after several days." Edgar nodded to Calvin and then left hurriedly.

Upon seeing this, Calvin started to laugh bitterly. He really didn\'t expect that there would be a day when Edgar paid more attention to a lover than friends.

However, at this time, he also didn’t have the face to criticize Edgar . . . . In this past year, Edgar being injured, slandered, and framed was actually caused by his mother. Even today, his mother still made Donald discredit Edgar before running away.

"What happened after all?" Myer stared at Calvin worriedly.

"It’s nothing." Calvin replied. At this point, he didn\'t know what else he could say . . . . With what had happened, he reckoned that there would be no possibility at all of him and Myer being together.

While Calvin and Myer were having nothing to say to each other, Edgar rushed back to the Imperial palace with the fastest speed to find Shu Shu.

When Edgar found Shu Shu, Shu Shu was online, watching the previous live broadcast video of himself that had been recorded by some people while eating fruit.

The fruit placed beside him was a very rare fruit of the Beastman Empire, and even the Imperial family did not get many of them. And now, those all were given to Shu Shu by Ian.

"Shu Shu, what did you say to me?" Edgar asked.

"What?" Shu Shu stared blankly.

"You sent me a message . . ." Edgar said.

Shu Shu felt that Edgar’s gaze was very, very bright at this moment. It was so bright that he could not help but feel like pouncing on Edgar, and thus he really did it . . . . Hugging Edgar, Shu Shu nipped Edgar’s lips. "I love you."

Edgar was deeply moved. For a split second, he even felt a little grateful to Jonathan. After all, if it had not been for Jonathan, he might never have met Shu Shu.

"Seeing that you love me so much, I’ll also love you more and more." Shu Shu kissed Edgar\'s lips again.

After going through Ian’s explanation and checking some information on the Internet, he already knew the importance of the beast bead to the beastmen and that the beast bead was completely different from his red bead.

Edgar believed that he was a beastman and yet gave him the beast bead. He absolutely loved him very, very much.

Having lived for several hundred years, this was the first time someone was so good to him . . . . Shu Shu was so happy to the point that he would send that kind of message to Edgar. And now, as he fixed his gaze on Edgar, he found that the more he looked at Edgar, the more he liked him.

This was his Edgar!

Edgar saw the affection in Shu Shu’s eyes clearly. He almost couldn’t restrain himself from pushing Shu Shu down onto the bed and kissing him, but he abruptly stopped.

"Come on." Shu Shu reached out and pulled Edgar. After knowing that the thing in his stomach was a child and not a tumor, his psychological pressure completely disappeared. Right now, he especially wanted to have an in-depth interaction with Edgar.

"No, it’ll hurt the child." Edgar said.

"There’s no relationship at all! At worst, you can just give me a little more spiritual power." Shu Shu said directly. The eggshell of the egg in his stomach was said to be especially hard; how could it get hurt easily?

Edgar began to input his spiritual power into Shu Shu, and then . . . he went and pounced on Shu Shu.

Previously, worried that the tumor would be getting bigger if it was provided with spiritual power, Edgar did not particularly dare to input his spiritual power into Shu Shu’s body. Today, he actually sent out all his spiritual power, eager for the child to absorb a little more of it, to the extent that the egg in Shu Shu’s stomach was a little bigger again. Shu Shu also got hungry right away.

Lying on his back on the bed while eating snacks continuously, Shu Shu suddenly said, "Is this child over-nourished, ah? Actually growing so fast . . . . Mother said that he was pregnant with you for seven months. I think I only need two months to be able to give birth to him."

"I think so too." Edgar said, hugging Shu Shu’s protruding belly and giving it a kiss. His child was inside it; as long as he thought of this detail, he couldn’t help but feel happy.

Of course, what made him happiest was the fact that Shu Shu clearly loved him very much. Otherwise, Shu Shu, as a beastman, would not be willing to give birth to a child for him . . . .

"There’s actually an egg in my stomach. Although it’s good, but there’s no fetal movement at all. I thought I could experience giving prenatal education and feel the baby move . . . ." Shu Shu was just saying this when his belly suddenly moved.

Staring at Shu Shu\'s belly, Edgar was indescribably happy. "He moved! He moved!" As he spoke, he gently and cautiously touched Shu Shu\'s belly.

Seeing that Edgar\'s gaze was focused on his belly, Shu Shu no longer cared about him and continued to watch videos on the Internet instead.

Watching the videos on the Internet, Shu Shu felt especially embarrassed. Then . . . he saw the latest comments.

"The stupidest crown prince in history, ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

"Talking about the importance of physiology class, you can skip any other classes, but don\'t skip the physiology class, ah!"

"I’m going to refer to this joke forever!"

"Give the crown prince a moment of silence. Say, if they have an operation and take the egg out . . . is there any possibility they’d feel that the tumor looks distinctly weird?"

"The poor baby was almost forced to be born prematurely, ha ha ha ha."

. . . . . .

Reading these comments, Shu Shu was depressed.

Were he and Edgar really so stupid?

He was just thinking so when he suddenly saw a comment saying that the crown prince had posted a message on his social media account . . . . Shu Shu followed that person’s direction and soon saw Edgar\'s social media account.

It was a microblog-like platform where you could post all kinds of news, and it was generally used for posting photos and daily musing.

Edgar rarely posted anything. Even when he posted something, he usually only forwarded some news related to himself. For example, on his last post, he forwarded the news of his marriage announced by the Imperial family, and on the previous one, he forwarded the Imperial family’s statement about him having not become a fallen beast and having returned to the capital star.

His posting style had always been like this, but, surprisingly, the one posted just now stood out from the crowd. "I’m going to be a father! I’m going to be a father!! I’m going to be a father!!! [twisting little snake.jpg]"

The crown prince was obviously very excited, and the comments below his posted message were also jubilant.

"Congratulations, congratulations!"

"Is this His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince being madly happy?"

"Important thing must be said three times. Congratulations, Your Imperial Highness! Congratulations, Your Imperial Highness!! Congratulations, Your Imperial Highness!!!"

"Looking forward to the little prince\'s birth!"

. . . . . .

People were congratulating Edgar, but among so many congratulatory comments, a discordant comment suddenly appeared, "I dislike snake the most!! And you actually posted a snake picture!!!"

Damn! Someone actually said that he disliked snake under the crown prince’s social media account! Who was this guy? How was his courage so big?

The people who saw this comment were enraged and immediately opened the profile of the person who made the comment . . . .

This person did not use an anonymous sock puppet and used his real account to go into battle. Furthermore, his real account was authenticated—the crown princess of the Empire; the partner of the Crown Prince Edgar.

Your Imperial Highness the Crown Prince, your partner said that he disliked snake the most. Was this really no problem? You were also a snake, ah!

People were speechless. When they were rolling up their sleeves and planning to say a few words to help the crown prince—such as telling the crown princess that a snake was actually very cute too; what’s more, the crown prince was very powerful—they suddenly discovered that the crown prince had deleted the previous dynamic and then changed it into: "I want a sub-beastman. [hamster.jpg]"

Crown prince, you’re too chicken! Why didn’t you hold on for a few more minutes before deleting it, ah?!

The Internet was very lively. Edgar stroked Shu Shu’s very big belly and slowly started to kiss it again.

After stroking Shu Shu’s belly and reading the news on the Internet for a while, Edgar’s spiritual power recovered. Anyway, since Shu Shu’s health was very good, they were allowed to do it once again, weren’t they?

Shu Shu had no objection at all in doing it once again and began to respond enthusiastically.

Two people were just touching each other when Shu Shu suddenly felt a little off.

He had a strong feeling of going to have diarrhea . . . .

"Edgar, hold on! I’m going to have diarrhea!" Shu Shu suddenly exclaimed.

Was it really okay to suddenly say this when you were in bed? Edgar let go of Shu Shu with some speechlessness, watching Shu Shu’s little butt jiggle as he rushed into the toilet.

Shu Shu tried to relieve himself in the toilet for a while, but nothing came out. He could only return to the bed naked while feeling a bit depressed. “I obviously felt like having diarrhea, but nothing came out in the end. What the heck is going on, ah?!"

"You’ll be fine." Edgar said. Shu Shu ate so many things and probably had some indigestion. He should be fine after a while.

Thinking about it, Edgar held Shu Shu and continued to input spiritual power into Shu Shu\'s stomach. Spiritual power was a good thing and would not bring any harm even if he inputted a lot.

Shu Shu felt like having diarrhea and was very uncomfortable, but after Edgar gave him lots of spiritual power, he immediately felt much better and more comfortable. Just thinking so, Shu Shu suddenly had a stomach ache, and the feeling of having diarrhea was even more intense.

"Quickly help me go to the toilet!" Shu Shu said urgently. Having heard what was said, Edgar at once rose so he could carry Shu Shu. At the same time, he also didn’t forget to input his spiritual power into Shu Shu.

However, at this moment, Shu Shu once again spoke, "Oh no, I can\'t hold it in!"

"Shu Shu!" Edgar shouted and then, staring at Shu Shu’s belly, was struck dumb.

The bulge on Shu Shu’s belly disappeared, and a slick egg stained with a few red wisps of blood appeared on their bed.
