In the operation room of the villa inside the time chamber, Zeno was currently holding his first-born child in his arms as he looked at the strangely developed baby girl with full-head blonde hair and blue-green heterochromia eyes who was sleeping like an angel in the bundle of white clothes... like she wasn't just crying like a banshee half an hour ago.
Zeno feels very emotional as he feels the warmth and little weight of his precious first child in his arms. Now he can genuinely feel himself being a father for the first time in his life.
Now that his baby is born, Zeno has decided to inject some of the Godblood into her body through her skin to protect her at all times and enhance her physique and genome even further to make her able to surpass the limits of humans by herself if she decides to do so.
If she keeps training herself every day, she will eventually reach any height of strength that she desires, as her potential will be limitless, just like his. But if she doesn't want to be involved in fighting, then that's also fine, as Godblood can protect her from almost anything in the multiverse anyway.
"Heh, what a cutie you are..."
He smiled gently at his sleeping daughter, and then, looking towards Asia, who was lying on the bed next to him in a white hospital gown and was very exhausted after eight hours of labor, Zeno was glad that the baby was safely delivered with no danger to both mother and child, thanks to the assistants of Godblood and Touki magic.
"Here... Asia, our child."
Zeno then leans down and gives Asia the baby, which Asia eagerly receives from him, forgetting about her exhaustion in the process. She carefully held the baby close to her as she smiled with happiness while seeing her daughter's face for the first time.
"She is so beautiful, Zeno-san..."
Asia whispers as she looks at the cute sleeping face of her daughter with tears in her eyes. Her precious daughter—finally, she can hold her in her arms.
"Let's name her Ziah, Ziah Zavior."
Sitting down on the edge of the bed, Zeno kisses Asia on her forehead and wraps his arm around her shoulders while naming his daughter. The name Ziah is a mix of both Zeno's and Asia's names.
"That wonderful name..."
Asia smiled in agreement and then started to breastfeed the baby, who was instinctively sucking for milk even in her sleep.
Meanwhile, the maids that were cleaning up the room also took the occasion to look at the baby from time to time with curiosity. They can read the room, so they are not trying to intrude on Zeno and Asia's moments with their daughter. They can see the baby later, when Asia is taking a rest, so they will refrain themselves for now.
Later, after Asia fell asleep and the baby was placed in the crib next to the bed, the other girls immediately crowded around the crib, whispering to each other quietly with excitement as they observed the sleeping Ziah.
"Wow~ so small~ so cute~"
Charmie whispered with a blush as she looked at the sleeping Ziah with shinning eyes. The baby that she was waiting for was as cute as she expected.
( AN: Charmie is a clone of Mittelt. )
"I am also..."
Seeing how adorable the baby is, Himiko and Leila muttered at the same time with longing expression and ended up looking at each other with determination in their eyes. Next time, it will be ME who will give Zeno a child. They thought at the same time while giving each other a challenge gaze.
( AN: Leila is a clone of Kalawarna. )
"Cute..."
Noa, who was peeking behind the crowd of women, accidentally let out a word in her mind before realizing it and quickly turning her face away with a blush of embarrassment, like nothing happened.
( AN: Noa is a clone of Raynare. )
It seems no one is spared from the baby Ziah's cuteness.

The next day, in the living room of the villa, in the time chamber, Zeno and his girls, as well as his daughter, gathered together in the room to meet and greet the new addition to the Zavior household.
"Hello~ Nice to meet you, Ziah-chan!"
Charmie said to Ziah in Asia's arms as she smiled brightly. The baby looked at her with curious, mismatched eyes, with her right eye green and her left eye blue in color, and then the baby clumsily reached out her little hand towards Charmie.
"Kyaa~! So cute~!"
Charmie cried in excitement and responded by holding Ziah's little hand. The baby seems to find her enthusiasm intriguing, as she is making an adorable baby's noises and grasping Charmie's finger.
"That's enough; it's my turn."
"Muu?!"
Growing impatient, Zestia suddenly pushed Charmie out of the way while she was still holding hands with the baby, and Zestia started patting Ziah's fluffy blonde hair with her hand, while Ezrah also joined in and touched Ziah's cute little toes playfully.
( AN: Zestia is a clone of Xenovia and Ezrah is a clone of Irina. )
"Hi, baby."
Zestia greets Ziah with a small smile on her lips, while Charmie gives her a glare of resentment.
"Hello~!"
Ezrah waved her hand at the baby also as she tickled Ziah's tiny foot, causing her to squirm a little with confusion. Ziah then looks at them innocently with her big round eyes as she releases her grip from Charmie's finger, much to her disappointment. The baby was making some baby noises as she touched Zestia's arm and hand with interest.
"She's a curious little cutie, huh?"
Ezrah giggled as she also touched hands with the baby.
After the two of them were satisfied, Zestia and Ezrah moved back and let the next girl come greet the baby next.
"Look who we have here."
Leaning down towards the baby as she smiled, Klara started to compliment the baby as she patted her head gently.
( Klara is a clone of Katerea. )
"You're the most adorable little lady, aren't you?"
Ziah smiled as she started to get the positive nuances of people interacting with her, which she found quite fun. She then reached out both of her hands and began touching Klara's arm and hand curiously.
The three new girls, Marian, Rurari, and Yae, are also waiting for their turn as they talk to each other.
( AN: Marian is a clone of Momo, Rurari is a clone of Ruruko, and Yae is a clone of Tsubasa. )
"Her eyes are so pretty! They like a jewel!"
Rurari exclaimed as she peaked over Klara's shoulder. She can't wait to touch the baby's chubby cheeks. Behind Rurari, Marian and Yae are waiting patiently with a smile; they also want to touch the baby's cheeks.
Meanwhile, Zeno watched the girls interact with his daughter with a smile as he relaxed on the couch. He then turned to see Ruth fidgeting on the armchair while looking at the other girls surrounding the baby, with her intention of wanting to smother the baby with affection too clear for all to see.
"Don't you want to introduce yourself to her?"
"Eh?"
Zeno's smile became wry as Ruth looked away from him after she noticed that he was looking at her and refused to make eye contact with him while making an awkward face and a little blush on her cheeks from the various things, mainly lewd things, that she saw him do through the hologram screen.
She can't see his face without getting aroused anymore. What a tragic predicament!
"A-Ah, yes, I will when they are finally done with her..."
Ruth managed to stammer out as she still refused to look at him. Zeno just chuckled to himself as he shook his head at her strange behavior. He wonders if he did something to her that he was unaware of.

In the evening, at the front of the Geborgs' barracks, Zeno was coming out of the building after he finally decided to install some amenities for the Geborgs to entertain themselves and each other.
The sight of Geborgs playing table tennis with each other and dancing awkwardly on the arcade dancing machine was quite amusing to watch.
Zeno then walks past the parking lot near the barrak with ten GTs (God Taker) parking neatly, with some Geborgs washing the large armored vehicles with water hoses that connect to the large water tank on top of the barrack building.
Next to the parking lot is a training ground, where Geborgs sit in lines as they cultivate diligently. Zeno looked at them briefly, as many of them had a white aura emitting from their bodies. Many seem to be already comparable to a high-class devil in energy volume.
Now the number of Geborgs population is around 484 units, just a little more, and he will be able to go raid the Old Santa faction's bases and hideouts with flame and fury.
Then suddenly, an idea hit him out of nowhere.
"...I need a warbike."
Zeno muttered with a blank expression before it slowly changed to excitement.
The warbike, a hybrid of a motorcycle and a military-armored vehicle, will definitely be an intimidating and cool sight on the battlefield, for sure.
But it's not just a cool factor that makes Zeno want to adopt the warbike in his army; it's the great mobility to navigate the rough terrain with ease that appeals to him, thanks to the gyroscopic stabilizers that keep the warbike balanced and steady even during high-speed maneuvers or when firing its weapons.
The warbike is a testament to the ingenuity of its designers, who have managed to create a hybrid vehicle that combines the best of both worlds: the maneuverability and speed of a motorcycle with the firepower and armor of a battle tank. It's this unique blend of characteristics that makes the warbike such an invaluable asset!
...Is what Zeno likes to say as an excuse, but to be honest, he just wants to ride a cool bike and run people over on the battlefield.
"Who care? It's super cool!"
Zeno cried out as he immediately went out of the time chamber with some of the Geborgs to go dig up dirt as material for the warbike he wanted to create.
"The raid will be legendary...!"
