A few hours later, Nathan who was sleeping dearly was woken up by a warm touch.

It was his mother, Sophia Pendragon Sabio, who came to breastfeed her babies.

Sophia Pendragon, known by many as 'White Angel', is a war veteran who saved countless lives on the battlefield. Although she is an adventurer, because of her heroic performance, she was acknowledged by the crowd and gained nobility- to be specific, a viscount.

She originally did not want to be a noble but because of her love for her husband, who was already a noble, heir of a marquis household, and thus accepted the title.

Commoner daring to marry a noble was considered an insult to the noble. They considered them as leeches, who keeps sucking their glory and wealth while also tarnishing their blood.

But she did it also for her children to have an environment good for their growth.

She has the perfect figure with her waist-length silver hair, golden eyes, a face beautiful even without adding powder, also a voluptuous lip. She's currently wearing a white nightgown which even highlighted her large bosom.

Sophia carries out of the crib their firstborn. She planned to name her children one by one as her first actual interaction with the babies.

They named their babies while they were in her belly but it was still a different feeling when its an actual interaction.

"You are our firstborn, you who has the strength of a bear from birth thus you shall be named Arthur Pendragon Sabio, a blessed body with strength and power" she kissed him on his forehead before gently putting a baby bottle of breast milk she made earlier using a breast pump to Arthur before putting him back at his crib.

She then picked up the second-born who was beside Arthur's crib.

"You are the second born, the only daughter of ours, she who has the sharp eyes of hawk thus you shall be named as Astoria Pendragon Sabio, the blessed body with mana talent" then kissed her on her forehead and gave her a baby bottle.

And lastly, she picked up the youngest of the triplets, who were then woke up from his slumber by her touch. She stared at him for a second and Sophia was about to speak but was interrupted by a shout not so loud behind her.

Nicholas Pendragon Sabio, known as the "Food Devil", was known for his great enthusiasm for delicacies. He travels all around the world to eat different foods and collect each ingredient. His dream was to create a menu made out of his delicious creation!

He mostly travels throughout his life but that was before he met Sophia, it was love at first sight, and his heart skip a beat as he remembered her beautiful face. He courts her for almost 2 years non-stop before she accepts him as his fiancee.

A year later, they got married, and they planned to have children after 2 years as they still want to savor the life of a recently married couple.

Who would have thought that the Food addict will have his own family? He originally dreamt to create a heaven-defying full-course menu, not only to be known through history but now also for his family to taste.

At present time, Nicholas was currently in their bed, planning to cuddle his wife and move his body only to touch nothing.

He immediately sat up from their bed. He was alarmed. He observed his surroundings and saw his wife feeding the babies.

Then Nicholas realized and also wanted to feed his baby.

" Wait!" he shouted.

Sophia turned her head around only to see his embarrassed husband scratching his cheek.

"You will wake up the babies, honey"

Although the babies did not awaken from the sound as they were busy drinking their milk except for one - Nathan.

Sophia smiled dangerously at his husband.

Nicholas shuddered at that smile. He only became a father for a few hours, how could he not make a mistake? But he mustered his strength and said.

"Can I also feed the baby?"

Sophia knowing that his husband did not deliberately shout but only wanted to feed the babies, nodded her head.

Nicholas was excited that he seems have forgotten to control his speed almost crashing to the wall.

*cough*

He controlled his body and walked behind his wife.

Sophia gave a baby bottle to Nicholas filled with her hard-earned breast milk.

Nicholas gently pushed the bottle into the baby's mouth. He smiled at the appearance of his baby.

He cuddled his wife from behind while smiling at his babies. Sophia also smiled sweetly. That lasted for over a minute before Nicholas ask.

"What were you saying to the babies earlier?"

"I was naming them," Sophia said

"Didn't we name them already?" Nicholas said. He was confused as they already named them before their birth.

"But they are still not born when we did that." Sophia contradicted.

"Hmm... what?!" he nodded at first as he understand but he suddenly exclaimed as he get what his wife said.

Sophia stomped her foot at his husband's toe.

"Ow!" Nicholas said. Sophia added force to her foot as his husband keeps making loud sounds.

Nicholas was aggrieved but he still complied and shut up and ask quietly.

"Why did you not take me with you?" Nicholas asked sadly.

"You're asleep," Sophia said calmly.

"But you can wake me up," Nicholas retorted.

"Really? I did try to wake you up earlier and you didn't even budge a little" Sophia said calmly.

"What?! But I didn't notice anything" he exclaimed.

"I still haven't said anything to our youngest, why not try?" Sophia said to soothe her husband's dismay.

"Really!?" he exclaimed and immediately agreed to grab this opportunity before his wife changed her mind.

Arledge woke up from his slumber, as he was in her mother's embrace, he was also the only baby close to Nicholas. He woke up because he forced himself to. It was to observe more of his surroundings.

As he open his eyes, a light was first to greet him but as his vision returned to normal, he saw a beautiful face, a one-of-a-kind face, and cannot help but admire it.

But was then interrupted by a cough...

He looked over and saw a handsome man behind the beautiful miss.

*Cough*

"The youngest of the three, he who has the innocence of the rabbit and who was also the cutest *Cough* thus you shall be named as Arledge Pendragon Sabio, the rabbit dweller in the lake!".

Soon after that, an alarm rang into Arledge's mind.
