This other book also has consequences

"So you knew for what, a week?" asked a fuming Kenshin. "And you didn't tell me?"

"It was a bit hard okay?" Makoto weakly said.

"Kenshin, let it go" said Yae, hugging Makoto who was next to her. "You wouldn't understand what this means to them".

'Am I not also involved?' thought Kenshin, but upon sensing the sister's feelings of apprehension, he bit his tongue.

"Whatever" he finally said, making Makoto and Ei breathe in relief. "What do I need to do?"

"Don't die" mockingly said Yae, but grimaced when Ei made her bones creak. "ouch ouch! Stop, it was just a joke!"

"Make another joke" said Ei in an eerily calm voice. "And find out how amusing I find your 'joke'".

They returned to Morax's and Guizhong's house, and they were seated around the table. It was cramped, but no one seemed to mind.

Except for Yahiko and Mio, who looked dismayed and jubilant at the same time.

Just a few hours ago, Kenshin had been trying to soothe their anger, and now they found out he was expecting a child, from the former ELectro Archon and God of Eternity no less.

But they were going to be grandparents, and that was something that eclipsed all other feelings.

Jean looked from the side. She expected this to happen, but maybe in a few years, when Kenshin finished with everything he wanted to do and could stay in a place for a long time.

She already knew they had all of the time in the world, but this was too sudden.

She didn't know how would she feel hearing that another woman was pregnant but seeing the raw emotion in this lonely woman, she couldn't help but feel happy for them. 

The sheer happiness she had seen in their faces made her almost want to experience it for herself, but she knew that having a baby would render her unable to do what she wanted to do the most, help Mondstadt.

But her moment would come, and she felt relaxed knowing that by that time Kenshin would be by her side. She could only hope her mother wouldn't fuss about her that much.

"Stop joking Yae, this is serious" Kenshin said with a frown.

"That is the last sentence I expected to hear from you" scoffed Guizhong.

"You are pregnant right?" asked Kenshin in a tone that made Guizhong look at Kenshin with a narrowed look. "Why don't you let me give your child a few extra arms?"

"Do it to your own!" Guizhong smirked. "Maybe you can make him a slapping machine, just give him more weapons and no Adeptus, God or Archon will stop him".

Kenshin's theory of 'soul modifies the body' had already been proved when Guizhong regained her body, so if Kenshin wanted, he could manipulate the soul to make the baby grow with more legs, 2 heads or simply turn into Budda with a million arms.

"Do you think I would experiment on my child?" asked Kenshin with a frown. "That's why yours come first. Just tell me what colour you want his scales to be, and you will have a rainbow dragon".

"Kenshin, stop talking about experimenting with unborn children" Jean scolded him.

"Well, if you put it that way...." Kenshin could only admit that it didn't sound very good. "Anyway, the little monster is coming with the bird".

KNOCK

BANG!

With what could only be described as a punch, Shenhe quietly opened the door. She thought so at least.

"This one will repair it" Cloud Retainer said with a pale face. Her student breaking the door of Rex Lapis' private house wasn't something.....good.

"Kenshin" Shenhe approached but frowned when she saw no chair near Kenshin. But she wanted to sit near Kenshin.

"....." the whole room deadpanned when Shenhe sat on Kenshin's lap.

"Kenshin, may we know this girl?" asked Mio with a cramped smile looking at the hum-...gir-...God who she could call daughter-in-law. An enraged God of Eternity could make the child turn into ashes.

"Hmmmm" Shenhe didn't care and put herself comfortable, which looked like she was rubbing her admittedly perfect backside against Kenshin's crotch.

"Shenhe, these are my parents" Kenshin had to focus on that scene of people licking each other's feet his mind had been scarred for all these years to avoid finding himself in a compromised situation. Shenhe's soft and supple butt was amazing.

"Hmm" Shenhe looked curiously at the 2 scandalized people and nodded calmly. But then she thought of something else, something important. "Are you 2 my parents?"

She was going to be with Kenshin forever, didn't that mean that they were her parents-in-law?

"They are" nodded Guizhong, who felt that Shenhe was too precious. She was the person outside Cloud Retainer Shenhe spoke the most with, mainly because Shenhe remembered how Guizhong had helped her in the Meeting.

"Hmm" Shenhe nodded again, but the ones who knew her realized how happy she was.

"You see" started Kenshin seeing his parent's unsure faces. "Her mother died when she was young and her father sent her to a monster after blaming her for it, so she is happy to have parents again".

Demagogy is in its purest state.

"Oh, poor child" Mio quickly hugged Shenhe. "....."

But due to the difference in altitude, she bounced back, making everyone agape and Shenhe confused.

"What is happening here?" asked Cloud Retainer with an exasperated sigh.

"I'm pregnant" confessed Guizhong, waiting for Cloud Retainer's reaction.

"....." Cloud Retainer looked in confusion at Guizhong. "I knew it a few weeks ago".

"And so is she" Guizhong immediately pointed at Ei, still in Yae's arms.

"Oh" Cloud Retainer looked in astonishment at the person she recognised as the forme Electro Archon. "Congratulations to you 2 then".

Ei nodded gratefully and resumed her thoughts about the future.

"Well, at least we don't have to guess about the gender of the baby" Cloud Retainer sat down in the only chair remaining after receiving a nod from Morax, the owner of the house.

"Oh, you can already discern it?" asked a surprised Yae, making Ei pay attention.

"What is there to discern?" asked the confused Adeptus. "How could the child of 2 women be a boy?"

""....""

Kenshin looked at Ei and Yae, and could only nod in understanding.

Ei still had some traces of tears, and she and Yae were hugging each other. Of course, people here knew it was Yae comforting Ei, but they were hugging quite intimately in the eyes of someone who just entered.

"Pfff" despite knowing that laughing would earn her the enmity of the overpowered woman, Guizhong couldn't help but smirk.

"Did this one say something wrong?" asked a confused Cloud Retainer, being the target of deadpan looks.

"We aren't a couple" said Yae grinding her teeth.

"But what about that book?" inquired Cloud Retainer.

"Be happy together" Shenhe chose this moment to break her silence. "I thought you liked Kenshin, but I will pray for your happiness".

Maybe a bit of Alter-Shenhe was there.

"Look at this Kenshin" Guizhong scoffed, and directed a mocking smirk at the calm Kenshin. "Your lover has cheated on you with your other lover and they are now expecting a kid".

"Guizhong, don't be a kid" Kenshin said with an exasperated shake of his head. "I am not the same easily provoked child that you coul-"

"NT-"

"NEVER!!" Kenshin's shouts surprised everyone except Yae who nodded. "TAKE THAT BACK!"

"Kenshin!" Mio shouted in horror, looking at the great Guuji-sama, trying to see how would she react. But much to her relief, Yae's smile only grew bigger.

While Kenshin was arguing back to avoid facing just retribution for writing that damn book years ago, he felt Shenhe moving n his lap.

"Stop Shenhe" he muttered.

'Keep doing it, he is getting nervous' Alter-Shenhe said with a vicious grin, still tied up. 'Don't you want to know how did that monster get pregnant? Keep doing this'.

And Shenhe, listening to the devil's whisper, kept grinding her ass into Kenshin's crotch, and she moved again following her inner self's order. Now she was touching something hard she hadn't felt before.

'Yes, that's what put the baby inside that woman' Alter-Shenhe was getting her so-called revenge.

Last time, Kenshin had tied her even stronger and made some smut books appear in front of her. They were automatized, and they cycled between them.

And Kenshin forgot to 'deactivate' them, which meant that Shenhe had been seeing the same books again and again for 2 years straight, to the point she had memorized the 50+ books Kenshin had programmed.

Alter-Shenhe felt conflicted for a moment, as it was her body too, but instantly dismissed her concern.

Mutually assured destruction was something she was perfectly fine with.

"What's wrong Kenshin?" insisted Yae with her smirk unchanging.

A hero would have used the power of the word to convince Yae to stop and a villain would have blackmailed her or used violence, but Kenshin did what his cowardly self had taught him was the best solution after countless struggles.

Scream for help.

"Ei, she is mocking our child"

But Ei looked blankly at Kenshin, not caring about the words of a defeated foe. He and Yae had a duel, and he had lost so now he had to bear with the consequences, mainly, Yae's mocking.

"Dammit" Kenshin said with a frustrated expression.

"What are you going to do about the name?" asked Jean with a curious expression. "And do you think the baby will have Kenshin's ability?"

"Probably no" replied Kenshin, biting his gums when Shenhe started moving again. He knew saying something would only make him look like a pervert, after all, nobody expected the 'good and calm girl' to be doing this in front of 2 Archons, a youkai, and Adeptus, a God and 3 humans. "I don't see anything in that orb similar to the leaves on the tree".

"That's a relief" muttered Jean, knowing how dangerous Kenshin's ability was. After all, he had lost his sight and she didn't want a child to repeat it.

"Names..." Makoto came out suddenly, and for the first time since their emotional moment, she showed an excited smile. "Yes, we need names."

Yae smiled softly when she saw how excited Makoto was.

A smile mirrored by the normally stone-faced Morax. He remembers how excited Baal (Makoto) was in one of their reunions 2 thousand years ago, telling happily how she chose the name 'Inazuma' for her nation.

'Giving a name is the first step in the trip. It's only natural to start your travel with the best step you can make' were her words.

"We don't even know the gender" pointed Cloud Retainer, but looked with a gentle smile at the childlike happiness Makoto's face expressed.

"How about you Guizhong?" Kenshin tapped Shenhe in the back, and Shenhe realized that this was not the moment to 'investigate' so she ignored her inner self's indignant cries. "Did you choose a name?"

"Yes" Guizhong took Morax's hand and nodded happily. "If she is a girl we will name her Lily, in honour of the now almost extinct flowers that made us meet each other".

"And if he is a boy?" asked Yae, having an idea. She knew Guizhong very well, and she knew how she thought.

"Ken" replied with a serious face Morax, looking directly at Kenshin's surprised face. "In honour of the man who gave us this chance, and made this miracle possible."
