Chapter 89: 4.23: A Family of Six

"Papaaaa!" a little girl ran with a basket full of fruits to her father who was busy carrying her twin brother. The little girl fell on the ground because the basket was too heavy, but she stood back up again, collected the fruits that fell and walked towards her father with a big smile on her face, "I bring fruits, let's eat!"

"S—Sister, you should wash it first. We might get sick if we eat dirty food…" the little boy on his father's arm clenched his father's tunic because he was disgusted by the dirty fruits. 

"Hmph! It's just a bit of dirt! You can just wipe it and it will be clean again!" the little girl insisted. She wiped the dirty apple with her dress and gave it to her father, "Papa, have some!" 

The father grinned happily and said to his son, "It's just a bit of dirt! You are a boy! You should be tougher!" the father happily accepted the dirty apple from his daughter and opened his mouth, the moment he bit the apple, a pebble launched towards him and hit his head, "Ouch!"

He looked directly at the man who threw the pebble with wronged expression, "Wife…"

"Don't teach your kids bad things! You dumbo, wash that fruit first!" Lyon scolded Javier who was taking care of their kids. Meanwhile, he was busy spoon-feeding a two years old boy in his arms. He was sitting under a tree shade because the summer was quite hot in Great Arctyr these days. 

Javier felt that nothing was wrong with the fruit, he ate many things when he was a kid, even something that should be edible, but he ate it without any illness at all. He wanted to refute, but before he said something, Lyon already interrupted him;

"And don't try to argue about your childhood! That's because Father Rama doesn't know anything about childcare! Go wash that fruit and Melody and Maestro's hands!" Lyon scolded him again.

Javier pouted and he took his daughter in his arms as he went to the bathroom to wash their hands and the fruits first. 

Layla chuckled at this. She was busy spoon-feeding a two years old girl with the baby food for lunch. Meanwhile, Lyon was busy making sure that these twin babies were well fed while also watching Javier and his stupid antics trying to babysit their seven years old twins son and daughter. 

"You are too harsh on him, Javier spent a lot of times learning how to govern and he still have to handle many things in both Sun Kingdom and Golden Camellia, he also needs to partially make decision for Great Arctyr because you are too busy taking care of the children," Layla said.

"Well, it's his undoing!" Lyon said while cursing Javier in his heart, "I told him that I don't want more kids, but he insisted and looked at what we have here? Two pair of twins!"

Layla laughed low, "Truthfully, they said that there could only be one pair of twins in each generation of the Great Palace. Because no woman was able to conceive the second pair of twins in Great Arctyr, due to their draining energy. Maybe because Javier was too vigorous, or maybe because you are a man, so you are strong enough to give birth to two pair of twins."

Lyon sighed in response. In fact, he didn't plan to stay in this world for too long, but because the mission was still not completed, he had no other way. 

It had been eight years since their wedding. Through the power of the Sun King in Javier's blood, he had successfully impregnated Lyon. Yunyu was shocked when he realized that he had become a pregnant man for real, he started showing the symptoms that a pregnant woman would have, and would develop a baby bump.

He was horrified with the finding, and he thought the people would be disgusted. However, opposite of his expectation, everyone was waiting for the little prince or princess to come to this world. 

Yunyu didn't want to recall the memory of him giving birth again. It was hell on earth, he felt like he was split in half, meanwhile, Javier didn't stop cheering at him happily while he was dying. In the end, Yunyu gave birth to a pair of twins, a boy and a girl. Meanwhile, Javier was successfully driven out of the chamber because his excessive cheering and yelling disturbed everyone, including the midwife. 

[This spicy chicken author has no worry about writing a pregnant man and making it very easy to be accepted, as expected from a trash author. Tch!]

[Pupa: At least, now you have a family in this world, Javier treats you lovingly, right?]

[Hmph, what is the Breakmeter again?]

[Pupa: Breakmeter is 99%. Fatemeter is 100%.]

[That petty bastard didn't want to let me off! I have been in this world for almost ten years! I need to leave!]

[Pupa: But what about your babies? You still have babies and seven years old twins as your legitimate children. If you leave now, they will grieve.]

[W—Well, I will wait for them to grow older first, then I want to leave!]

Javier and Lyon had four children so far, a pair of seven years old twins, a girl and a boy, Melody and Maestro. And also another pair of two years old boy-girl twins, Dante and Danielle. Melody was a feisty little girl, while Maestro was reserved and somewhat shy. 

Meanwhile, Layla decided to be a nun rather than settling down with a man. She was active in many charity activities and people called her the White Princess. She was not lonely though, because Javier worked hard in bed with Lyon, so she always had to take care of many little troublemakers running around the palace to help her twin brother. 

Javier returned with Melody and Maestro, bringing the fresh fruits that had been washed. He sat beside Lyon and rubbed Lyon's head. He grinned stupidly, "You work hard taking care of our kids, I'm so happy!" 

Lyon ignored Javier while feeding Dante, but he secretly glanced at Layla who was feeding Danielle, he also glanced at Javier who had Melody and Maestro sitting on his lap while munching the fruits.

He had a thin smile on his face.

[Maybe I want to stay for a while here.]

***

Years passed until forty years had passed since their wedding day back then. Lyon was now sixty years old, while Javier was fifty nine. Their children had been set in their lives and Lyon had stepped down from his position as Great King Lyon, as did Javier as Emperor Gardenia III & Sun king Javier.

After their children had inherited their position and married off, they left the political circle and settled down in a villa in Golden Camellia. They lived in peace until Lyon realized that his death was near. 

In the deathbed, Javier was hugging him gently. They were already old with greying hairs, but Javier still retained his handsomeness and physique. Lyon stared at him and said, "Javi, I told you long ago that I will never leave you, right?"

"Yes…" Javier replied gently. 

"It seems, I have to break that promise. I… I will leave you soon…" Lyon said desperately. 

"It's okay, I will follow you soon. We will not be separated for too long," Javier said. 

"Javi, are you satisfied with our life?" Yunyu asked again, he stared at the system's notification that the Breakmeter has not been completed yet, so he was anxious.

"I am. I'm glad that I married you. You are my true love in this world, and in the afterlife," Javier said. He truly had no worries in his heart again. Lyon had been a faithful spouse for him for the years of their life together.

[Pupa: Ding! Breakmeter increases to 100%! The world has been completed! Congratulations host!]

[About time…] 

Javier kissed Lyon's lips for the last time. Lyon smiled and he closed his eyes. Slowly, Yunyu felt that his soul had been separated from Lyon's body. His soul floated around with Pupa for a while, he saw Javier hugged his lifeless body gently, there was a drop of tear on his cheek, in which, Yunyu kissed his cheek to comfort Javier. Although, Javier couldn't see him anymore.

"Goodbye, Javi. You have been a good, faithful husband for me. But I have to go"

"Ready to jump to the next world?" Pupa said. 

Yunyu wiped the tear on his eyes and he smiled happily again, "Of course! Will there be cool stuff in the next world?"

"A lot of cool stuff," Pupa said.

"Yay! Let's go, system!" Yunyu hugged the system and they disappeared from the world.

***

Javier took care of his wife's royal funeral. He was comforted by his children and grandsons and granddaughters. He smiled at them and said, "I will leave tonight, please bury me beside my wife."

Javier died exactly the night after Lyon's funeral in his sleep. His soul floated around in a sphere, when Javier opened his eyes, he was floating around in an infinite space filled with floating numbers.

A man appeared in front of him, he had pale skin, long silky hair, and wore a black and golden robe. He grinned at Javier and said, "Welcome, Javier Di Arlingdon."

Javier ignored the man and he looked around, "Is this afterlife? Where is my wife?" 

Javier looked at the man suspiciously, "Who are you? Did my wife cheat on me in the afterlife? You are a very handsome man, you must've tempted him, right?"

There was a surge of overwhelming power inside the sphere, the man in robe was nervous when he saw the sphere start cracking. Javier was truly powerful, because he was Bai Yunyu's favorite in his previous life, so the man gave Javier a bit more of his power because of that favouritism. 

"N—No, I am the god of death. I can bring you to your wife as long as you are willing to go with me," the man tried to coax Javier.

"Really?" 

"Yes, as long as you are willing to be absorbed by me, I can be your transporter to your wife, he is currently waiting for you in heaven," the man tried as much as possible to coax Javier, because if Javier went rampage right now, he wouldn't have enough power to control him. 

"Huh? Then, he must've been waiting for me in heaven for so long! Let's go! I don't want him to cheat on me with the male angels there!" 

Javier willingly gave his soul to the man and his sphere minimized into a small bead. The man in black-golden robe sighed in relief as he swallowed the bead. 

When he received Javier's memory with Yunyu as Lyon Hessel Signe, he bit his lip as he tried to suppress this surging emotion in his heart. He remembered the good moment he had with Bai Yunyu, and he felt both bitter and jealous, because Javier, one of his soul, could experience everything that he had wished for millennia. 

The man in black robe shook his head in denial, he clenched his fist.

He opened his fist and shot a huge firebolt into the infinite space he was stuck in right now. He created hundreds of firebolts to unleash his anger, and to remove this emotion his heart, but that emotion lingered.

"Bai Yunyu, you bastard! You told me all those beautiful things, just like what you did with Javier, but all of them are lies! You lying bastard! I will never forgive you!"
