"Don't you think you had enough fun?" Yu Yaojing grumbled. She was very dissatisfied that Yu Jing had kept her baby all to herself.
For the past hour she has been tickling Yu Sheng. All that Yu Yaojing could hear was her baby giggles and Yu Jing faint laughter.
If only she knew what was going on in Yu Sheng head....
"Get this evil witch away from me!!!" Yu Sheng cried out. Yu Jing hands remind him of the time Yin Qing'er scared him, making him believe a monster was behind him, horrifying the hell out of him.
Unfortunately, his pleads sounded more like happy giggles to Yu Jing who kept bombarding him with her fury's of tickles.
In Yu Sheng mind he already noted Yu Jing with the nickname Devilish Fingers.
"It's already been an hour?" Yu Jing paused, looking at the time to see that an hour truly pasted.
"Why does time move so fast when I always find something interesting to do." She sighed then hand over Yu Sheng to Yu Yaojing while saying, "Lets go outside, everyone must be worried sick." She said while trying to walk her outside.
Yu Yaojing realizing her actions hissed at Yu Jing with an tone of disapproval, "Although I may be blind that doesn't mean I can't walk by myself."
"But..."
"Have you forgotten what created us? We can sense the faintest of sound and turn it into music. The sound is the music and we are the music itself. So even if I am blind that doesn't mean I can't sense my surrounding." Yu Yaojing explained as she walk to the outside of the chamber.
"Besides, if our people were to see me being carried out by you they might develop thoughts of replacing me."
Yu Jing hearing all of this shook her head while sneering, "Do you think I care about you? I am only worried that you will drop the child." She said while following Yu Yaojing.
"Granny Jing when will you stop worrying about others and worry about yourself? I mean how old are you? Yet your still single...." Yu Yaojing giggled in a sarcastic voice.
"You!!! Aren't you also single brat!"
"At least I'm not as old as you granny!"
Yu Sheng seeing them bickering with one another was speechless. "Aren't they adults? Why are they acting like children...." He thought while also thinking about what Yu Yaojing said.
"The language is the same as on Earth so I can understand what they are saying, but their conversation is quite confusing." Yu Sheng pondered as he try understanding everything he heard.
"They were talking about gods and other strange things that you would only hear in a fantasy story." In Yu Sheng old life he never thought gods were real, he even laughed and scorned those who worship gods thinking, "Shouldn't there be a one and true god? So why the hell are these people worshipping so many gods."
But now he realized that his previous view of the world was foolish.
"Not only that but it seems like I wasn't reborn as a human." Yu Sheng thought while being carried outside.
"But they all look like humans to me.... oh wait! There's these strange symbols on their right eye."
Using his baby eyes, Yu Sheng saw a black symbol on Yu Yaojing face. It looked similar to a G-Clef note, having two pointy ears on top and a long tail that stretches to her mouth that have a pointy end to it as well. "They look like musical notes..." He muttered then looked at Yu Jing to also see a music note on her face that was red in color.
"Are they just tattoos or something everyone in this race is born with?" Yu Sheng wondered.
"If it's the latter I wonder how mine will look." As he wonder about these his vision became blinded with a sudden light.
He instinctively closed his eyes and when he opened then back he was greeted with numerous stares.
Some of these stares looked shocked and curious while most of them looked to be joyful.
"Why does most of them look happy? Aren't I just a baby? Even if it was the Queen Elizabeth III who gave birth to a child at most there would be people saying their congrats, nothing else." He thought, baffled at those stares.
"Is that a baby boy?" One of the women mumbled. She walked up to Yu Yaojing, greeting her with a bow and then went and examine Yu Sheng.
Her fingers touch all around Yu Sheng body. They felt delicate and soft delighting him. "At least her fingers aren't rough like that witch."
"Head Mistress did you give birth to a baby boy!" After she was done she exclaim in shock, bewildering the other women.
Seeing their stunned expressions Yu Yaojing smiled. "That's right. Goddess Yinyue have finally blessed us with a baby boy!" She shouted as she raise Yu Sheng above her head causing cheers to rang out around the chamber.
Some even wept right then and there, going down to their knees and pray as if thanking their God.
Yu Sheng seeing this was left shocked. "Why are they acting like this? Also why do I feel like I am in the Lion King?"
"Now that I think about it, I don't see a single male around here." His gaze shift from the females trying to spot a male, but was left stupefy.
"Does that mean this race has never given birth to a boy?!"
"From what I heard from my new mom conversation with that witch they can't reproduce with other races because of a curse their goddess brought down on them."
"So does that mean I'm the only male in this entire race?!?!?!" Astonished he didn't know what to think anymore.
Yu Yaojing waited for the crowd to calm down before saying, "After today I will no longer be called Head Mistress, instead you must all call me Queen Yaojing!" Yu Yaojing declared causing shouts to echo in the surrounding.
"Queen Yaojing!" Everyone said in renounce making Yu Yaojing delighted.
She never liked the title Head Mistress and always wanted to be treated like a true Queen so she was indeed delighted hearing these shouts.
Yu Jing though was quite displeased. "There she goes breaking another tradition..." She sighed as Yu Yaojing next words shocked her.
"After today, all of you must call this child Prince Sheng! He will be the future king of the race after he grows up!" Her other declaration didn't have any cheers as each and every woman around the chamber looked at Yu Yaojing weirdly.
Even Yu Jing looked at her as if thinking, 'Girl are you crazy?'
Yu Yaojing seeing these stares sneered inside while yelling, "Do you think a child made by I, Yu Yaojing will become some weak brat?!" She shouted, quite angry that these women didn't agree right away with her decision.
"..."
The crowd remain silent even after Yu Yaojing shout. They wouldn't mind having a male in their race, but giving them the position of king without seeing their strength gave them a bad taste, especially since this future king was still a toddler.
Yu Jing seeing this sighed inside before glaring at all the women. "Queen Yaojing is the strongest person in the entire race and even defeated all the previous Head Mistresses without using her zither."
"Her strength is also respected not only in the Human Domain, but in all Domains that even the dragon race fear her while the phoenix race respects her."
"So are you saying that with her powerful music our Goddess Yinyue will create a useless brat?" Her gaze turn cold as she stare at everyone.
"N- No." They responded with cold sweats gathering behind their heads just from staring at Yu Jing cold gaze.
"Also have you forgotten what I told you all. He is the p-"
'Stop! What are you doing? Do you want us to be targeted by those wretched beings?!' Horrified of what Yu Jing was about to say Yu Yaojing sent a message to her mind.
Yu Jing who received the message paused what she was saying as her body turn pale at the mention of those beings.
"He.... he is the child that Goddess Yinyue sent to us! Maybe she saw how lonely we were and didn't want our future generations experience the same loneliness we go through everyday!" She corrected herself.
The tribe hearing this became emotional.
"If only Goddess Yinyue gave him to us a few hundred years ago..."
"Sigh! At least my daughter won't have to experience the loneliness I go through."
"I want to return to the embrace of music now..."
"Me too..."
The crowd suddenly became dishearten at the mention of their loneliness.
Yu Yaojing and Yu Jing also became like this. In this tribe it is a taboo to mention the word loneliness or anything to do with it.
So Yu Jing talking about it easily put everyone in a bad mood to the point they became absentminded and began walking back to their homes. Ignoring Yu Yaojing their new Queen.
Yu Yaojing seeing everyone leave turn to look at Yu Jing. At first she almost had an heart attack when she realized that she told everyone that Yu Sheng was a child from the prophecies.
She was extremely angry at her, but after what she said, she was left her in a bad mood. A mood worse than everyone else. "I will be heading home now. See you tomorrow Granny Jing." She said as she began walking towards a big castle.
Yu Jing watched as Yu Yaojing figure disappear. "Have you all forget how old I am? If the tribe mood is bad and your mood is worse then what is mine?" She thought with a sadden smile, regretting what she said.
...
"Well Little Sheng, welcome to your home!"
Yu Sheng looked around his new home with calm eyes. "Nothing too surprising." He thought while his gaze wonder around the place.
His home was just like any regular mansion back on earth. As for him who lived in a mansion for basically his entire life, he did not feel any need to act amazed or surprise.
As he look around he saw two figures approaching them. One was a lady who wore glasses whose mark on her face was a minim note that was white as snow while the other was a little girl who was in her arms who looks to be 2 years old.
"A Demisemiquaver mark?" Yu Sheng wondered in confusion as he stare at the child. The mark on her face looked like a scythe with three blades.
"Yu Huan? Didn't I give you a break." Yu Yaojing who heard the footsteps raised her eyebrow at the approaching woman while asking, "Why are you back so early?" Even when blind she could easily identify who a person is and how many there is around her.
The woman by the name Yu Huan came to a stop and looked at Yu Yaojing before bowing with the child in hand. "I am your most trusted aid and servant. How could I ever take a break?"
"But what about the child..."
"This is why I am here mistress..."
"Queen..." Yu Yaojing raised eyebrow went up once more.
"Ah... Yes, Queen Yaojing." Yu Huan corrected herself with another bow.
Yu Sheng listened on feeling like his new mother seems to be obsessed with being called 'Queen.'
It has only been two hours since Yu Yaojing declaration yet the entire race have already know everything about it.
Not only did the entire race know, but the entire world as well.
Hearing the word 'Queen Yaojing' she smiled. "You may continue what you were saying."
"Thank you M- Queen Yaojing." Yu Huan took in deep breaths before saying, "I will like this child to become the personal maid of Young Prince Sheng." She said as she look into Yu Yaojing closed eyes.
Yu Yaojing who was listening couldn't help but laugh. "Yu Huan you truly are the smartest person in our entire race." She chuckled.
Yu Huan is Yu Yaojing only maid and the only person Yu Yaojing would share important matters with.
Not only that but she is also one of the many smartest scientist in the world. Ranking as the top 3 smartest she is able to create miraculous things and the research she did has helped many people.
She has many names. However, what people know her as or call her by the most is Ruthless Servant. Just as she helped many people she has also killed just as many.
When someone become a threat in her eyes she doesn't just wait for them to strike. No— She makes sure to get rid of them the moment she finds out.
And her methods aren't simply locking them away and throwing away the key or giving them a quick death.
Instead she tortures them with inhuman methods that will leave anyone who saw shiver for months.
She would test them like their lab rats or prisoners on death row and the moment they start having no more use. She makes them experience a life worse than death.
"To think you would be the first person to try getting their daughter hooked up with my son." Yu Yaojing said while admiring, "You are truly one of the most smartest people in the world."
"I am only trying to keep the young prince safety in check." She beamed a smile at the praise whilst trying to hide it by pushing up her glasses to her nose.
"Yeah, yeah. The 'young prince safety' is indeed important." Yu Yaojing giggled before accepting, "Very well, I appoint her as the first to become my son, Yu Sheng personal maid."
"But what is her name?" Yu Yaojing asked as she look at the little girl. "I see her mark has already developed. If my guess is right then it should be a good rank."
"Yu Wei." Yu Huan responded while nodding her head.
"Yu Wei huh? She will become a very fine maid in the future." Yu Yaojing thought while she look at the baby girl who was staring at Yu Sheng while giggling as if happy to see him.
As for Yu Sheng himself, he grumbled. "Don't I have a say in anything?"
