Chapter 941: Arrival Of Estrella's First Birthday.

Chapter 941: Arrival Of Estrella's First Birthday.

Two months were quick to go by. Everyone had been focused on bettering themselves while taking care of the children, so, for Yasenia and the girls, sleep became nothing but a dream. 

Their cultivation levels allowed them to be awake indefinitely as long as they cultivated from time to time. Therefore, it was more of a luxury than anything else. 

Of course, while sleep was gone, getting bedded by their lovely dragoness was not. After their first pregnancy, the girls were even more active, so Yasenia took 6 hours daily to satisfy all her dears and herself. 

Then, she used another 6 hours to cultivate her three paths, and finally, the rest of the day was spent keeping her family company. Sometimes, Yasenia wished there were more hours in the day. 

Her work as the Sect Master and Alliance Master had been wholly relegated to other people, so she checked in occasionally to ensure nothing was going wrong. 

If someone needed her personal intervention, the maids would come and tell her. Other than that, Yasenia was 100% family-focused.

As a Mama Dragon, she was almost everywhere at all times. Of course, she was always careful not to pamper them too much and tried to discipline them. A true loving parent will not only give their child their world but also teach them how to fight the world themselves. 

"Skye, Dawn, how about you try to do it like this~?"

The dragoness sat cross-legged and guided them to complete the puzzle slowly. Toddlers are like sponges, so teaching them and training their thinking at young ages would go a long way to make them sharper in the future. One thing was letting your baby enjoy life, and another was forgetting that they would eventually grow up. 

Teaching them general skills was excellent for the children's growth. 

At the side, Yasenia heard her second eldests young and adorable voice. "Mommy! Look! Look!"

The dragoness smiled and looked over. "Oh? What do you want to show me, Estrella?"

Estrella held a wooden sword and then made a small sword routine with incredible expertise for a child that had yet to reach one year old. 

Yasenia clapped and used her tail to bring her second eldest into her arms and rain kisses on her. "You are so good! Baby is learning really fast~." 

Skye, Dawn, and Aurelia looked over and became jealous. Then, they became focused and tried to do their things quicker and better. 

Yasenia looked at them with a smirk on her lips. Competitiveness was a natural quality of all creatures with dragon blood. The dragoness wanted to feed on it in a healthy way. 

Behind them, Angel and Evelyn sat on a bench with smiles. They loved watching Yasenia play with the kids and using her incredible intellect to raise them. The little details their dragoness added to everything, knowing how dragons worked, had helped them tremendously. 

Therefore, each time Yasenia was playing with the kids, they watched closely and learned. Of course, the figure of Yasenia playing with the kids was so endearing that they would never get tired of it.

Tatyana entered the playground and smiled. "I am here~."

Estrella turned around and smiled brightly, running over. "Mama!" 

Tatyana could feel her cold heart's edges slowly melting as she leaned down to hug and lift the little darling. "How is my baby doing? Hm? Is your training going well?"

Estrella nodded and said with a proud little humph. "Mommy praised me!" 

Tatyana laughed. "That's really good!" Then, she approached the other three and crouched to give each of them a small kiss on the forehead. "What about you, Skye, Aurelia, Dawn? How are you doing?"

Skye babbled a few words with a large grin. "Great! Playing with Mommy is great!" 

Aurelia spoke right after, her tone a bit more restrained. Her large, blinking eyes looked intelligent and cute. "Having fun."

Dawn placed down the last puzzle piece and raised her chubby arms high, exclaiming in victory. "Finish!" 

Aurelia and Skye looked over, and Skye pouted. "Ah! Sister, unfair!" 

Aurelia looked at her own puzzle and poked at it with her cute finger. "I almost finished too…"

Yasenia laughed and lifted Dawn into the air, throwing her not too far up. "My little Dawn is so clever~." 

Seeing that, Skye and Aurelia were determined to be the next being pampered by their Mommy.

Angel and Evelyn approached, lifting their respective daughter and placing them between their legs. Using their energy to beckon the puzzle, Angel said, kissing Aurelia's cheek. "Come on, Little Gem. Let's finish it together." 

Aurelia smiled and nodded. "Okay!" Angel smiled softly and allowed Aurelia to solve it. 

Evelyn laughed and rubbed her cheek with Skye. "You won't give up because Little Dawn got ahead of you, right, Little Spark?"

Skye shouted her blabber without any restraint. "No give up!"

Evelyn grinned. "Great! Let's do it, Little Spark!"

Tatyana looked at Estrella and saw that she was looking at the puzzles. The red-eyed woman's eyebrow raised. "Aren't those puzzles a bit easy for you, Little Light?"

Estrella nodded, but Tatyana could clearly feel Estrella wanting to play with her. So, with a smile, she sat by Evelyn's and Angel's side, with Estrella between her legs, and took out a bit more complex puzzle. Tatyana kissed her cheek and smiled. "Let's play, Estrella." 

Estrella's heterochromatic eyes lit up with joy, and she smiled widely. "Okay!" 

Yasenia did the same with Dawn, and the four children and mothers continued playing together for a few more hours. Andrea, Cecile, Kali, Kaleina, and Flame eventually joined them. 

Tatyana approached Yasenia when they were free and commented. "Estrella's ritual is ready."

The dragoness paused and looked skyward. "I see. It has been one year since they arrived in our lives. Time really flies by." 

Tatyana smiled. "It does, and it never slows down. Always speeding up…" Tatyana muttered. "You go to meditate, and when you come out, you realize that the city to the west has disappeared, the country a few days away has been conquered, the mountain range to the east has become a lake, and the forest to the south is now a desert…" 

Tatyana smiled, her smile being empty. "Then, you realize that your meditation had lasted 3,000 years. You are too focused on cultivating; when you come out, it is another place. Feeling alienated, you leave." 

Yasenia used her tail to hug Tatyana and smiled. "I see. It definitely must be quite shocking."

Tatyana hummed. Andrea approached and smiled. "What are you two talking about?"

The dragoness smiled. "Well, we were talking about the passage of time. How things change quicker than we think, how we need to move on as time will never wait for anyone."

Andrea nodded. "That's really good advice. We are closer and closer to having stayed in this place for 20 years already…" Andrea paused and looked at Yasenia. 

The dragoness blinked cutely and tilted her head. "What's wrong, Darling?"

Andrea hummed. "I was thinking that you… Well… You were 23 years in that place. Everything we've accomplished, and yet, we have yet to cover the 23 years you stayed in that war." 

The dragoness realized and smiled. "I'd rather spend one year here than a thousand over there." The dragoness used her tail, this time, to bring her tall and heroic darling into her arms.

Andrea kissed Yasenia's forehead and smiled. "Thank you for still loving us after all of that. It's really… Incredible, to be honest. I am not even sure if I could've done it."

The dragoness snorted and joked around. "Oho~ So darling would leave me if I were away for 20 years? I see, I see." 

Andrea's eyebrow twitched. She totally didn't mean it that way, but her dear dragoness had twisted her words, and now she needed to appease her. Of course, knowing that it was Yasenia being playful, Andrea wasn't bothered and pampered her. "Of course not~. I was saying that I would've probably gone crazy trying to figure out a way to come out earlier. You tackled it with a very focused approach, right? Leaving everything behind and stepping forward so that you could reach us the quickest. That's what I find impossible to do."

Yasenia now pouted for real. "Are you calling me insensitive?"

Andrea didn't even know how to answer anymore. She kissed her pouty lips and smiled. "I am just saying that my dragoness is incredible and that I love her the most in this world."

Yasenia blinked her seductive eyes a few times, her long eyelashes batting like beautiful feathers. "Hm~. That's better, hehe."

Tatyana laughed. "She has you wrapped around her little finger, Andrea."

Andrea rolled her eyes. "As if she doesn't have you wrapped up as well."

Tatyana coughed, unable to refute. 

Days passed quickly like that, full of family fun and fluff. Everything was going great, and then Estrella's first birthday arrived.

Yasenia had used a large section of the house to create the children's ritual area. She didn't want anyone to bother them. 

She heard Alaia's message as she was cooking the last few dishes for the birthday celebration. "Young Miss, Coraline, and the other leaders are here, saying that they come with presents for Estrella."

The dragoness smiled and asked. "How is Tengliu doing? Is she in condition to appear at the party?"

Alaia answered. "She is extremely weakened, but moving around is not a problem at all. She has used disguises to visit the sect while being accompanied by some of the maids during the last few months."

The dragoness smiled. "No wonder I couldn't find her the other time I went to visit. Bring her out for the party and invite the leaders in; I've cooked more than enough food for everyone."

Alaia acknowledged. "Understood, Young Miss."

Yasenia waved her hand, storing all the foods in her spatial ring, and then called Soluna out. 

The spirit of the Sun and Moon appeared, her face groggy and smiling. "Yasenia…? Hehe, what's wrong~?"

Yasenia asked, amused. "Is it that comfortable being in my Dantian?"

Soluna blinked asynchronously. "It's… Perfect. Such a perfect balance of energies~, delicious energy everywhere as well! Also, the neighbors are nice. Did you know that Draheart has no memories of the past? It seems that she was quite a big deal in the past, but she doesn't remember."

Yasenia laughed awkwardly. "Can you not drop bombshells of information while half-asleep?" Yasenia blinked. "Also… She?"

Soluna hummed. "Well, you'll understand when you can talk to her."

The dragoness bonked Soluna's head. "Teasing me now?"

Soluna giggled and hugged Yasenia, looking up with her exotic Moon and Sun pupils. Her echoey, double voice sounded excited. "So? Is it Estrella's first birthday!?"

Yasenia smiled. "That's right. Do you want to help me?"

Soluna puffed her chest. "Of course! It's your child's first birthday! I will help even if you prohibit me from helping!"

The dragoness laughed, caressing Soluna's hair. "Good."

Soluna felt giddy by the hand on top of her head and smiled widely. "Hehehe." 

A few hours later, the banquet for Estrella was prepared. In the meantime, everyone gathered and met while Estrella's maid group took the presents and tested their safety while being monitored by one of Yasenia's maids.
