Chapter 873: The Limits of Mortals
..
Facing Soria, who had said such shocking words.
Matthew was silent for a long time before he slowly shook his head.
âIâm sorry.
âI donât want to.â
Even though it was Margaret, Matthew still found it hard to accept.
It wasnât that he was against procreating.
After all, Matthew had lived in the Aindor Continent for many years. Under the impact of all kinds of shocking phenomena, he was already used to many things.
Under the subtle influence, he had a stronger adaptability to the relevant elements.
Mages, after all, were known for some unorthodox stuff.
But what made him reject this was the intense damage that the process of giving birth would cause to his body.
This was not just physical damage.
Itâs the loss of a large number of elements
Matthew cherished his body very much.
Because he knew very well.
Even if one could reconstruct their body after entering the legendary realm, better physical fitness meant that they could obtain a higher increase in the legendary realm.
Everything he was doing now was accumulating for his advancement to Legend.
However, giving birth, which was risky and low-return behaviour, was undoubtedly contrary to this.
He couldnât stand the slightest damage to his body.
Soriaâs meaning was obvious.
She hoped that Matthew would be able to give birth to the embryo through his body. During this period, she might be able to use the reincarnation spell to inject Margaretâs soul into the embryo.
This wayâŠ
He became Margaretâs father, and Evil Queen Babasha became her mother.
As long as Soria had a way to suppress the mark of the Evil Empress in the embryo.
Then, after reincarnation, Margaret would be born as a demigod, and she would have unlimited possibilities for growth!
This was naturally the best way to deal with Margaret, who had accidentally fallen.
But that was not the case for Matthew.
At the very least, the plan proposed by Soria was not in Matthewâs own interest at all.
She saw Matthewâs determined gaze.
Soria gradually restrained her emotions and nodded slightly.
âYouâre right.
âThis is too unfair to you.
âItâs just that this embryo is a little too unfortunateâŠâ
Matthewâs heart skipped a beat.
He hurriedly asked,
âIs there any way to take out the embryo without substance separation?â
Soria pondered for a while and shook his head.
â This isnât a simple curse or corruption but a blessing from a domain ability. Although we can use other methods to offset this blessing, your body is already connected to this domain. From an outsiderâs point of view, itâs difficult for us to use non-violent means to get rid of this embryo for you without causing great harm to your body.â
Soria explained,
â Other than a normal delivery, Iâve thought of three strategies.
âThe first was to kill Evil Queen Babasha.
âThe Domain Blessing on your body comes from the Domain Radiation of this otherworldly god.
âAs long as she died.
âThis problem was naturally solved.
âThe second method is to transform yourself into a complete undead creature.
âThrough the complete transformation of negative energy.
âYou can completely overthrow the blessings of the fertility domain.
âAs for the third method, it was to forcefully abort the embryo.
âI said it before.
âThis embryo comes from the domain ability that you have been blessed by the Evil Empress.
âSo Iâm not sure if it will assume another form after we destroy it.
âMoreover, abortion is very harmful to the body.
âItâs even more harmful than normal childbirthâŠâ
Soriaâs words made Matthew frown.
He had thought that he had been corrupted or cursed by the Evil Empress.
He didnât expect it to be a blessingâŠ
â Canât I give up or reject the domain of fertility and related abilities?â
Matthew asked in confusion,
â Thereâs another question. If this blessing is continuous, is it anchored to my body or my soul?â
Soria muttered,
â The moment the blessing took effect, you might have had the chance to give up or reject it. However, itâs obvious that Evil Queen Babashaâs methods are very strange. You didnât manage to seize that only window of opportunity.
â According to my current observation, itâs very difficult for you to get rid of this ability for the time being.
âAs for the second question⊠To be honest, Iâm not too sure either. Babasha came from another world. Even though her domain overlapped with Aindorâs, there are still many illogical aspects. If you want to understand this question, Iâm afraid youâll have to do an experiment with your soul leaving your body.â
Matthew nodded lightly.
He actually thought so too.
Soria looked at him curiously.
âDo you have any ideas?â
Matthew smiled bitterly.
âI just have some strange thoughts.
âIf this ability is bound to my physical body, then can my soul be directly projected onto this embryo and snatch the ownership of the embryo from the mark of the Evil Empress?
â Once I succeed, Iâll be able to give birth to myself. At the same time, Iâll be able to have a demigod embryo full of divinity as a clone. In theory, itâs possible, right?â
Soria was stunned.
She stared at Matthew up and down a few times, then couldnât help but bite her index finger.
âThere doesnât seem to be anything wrong with what you said.
âIn the end, the Evil Empressâs influence on this embryo is only so-so. If youâre really prepared, itâs not impossible for you to replace her.
âFrom your personal point of view, this is indeed the way to maximize the benefits.â
