My World Traveling System: The Harbinger of Death

-----

Frank was 18 years and a few more months old now, it could be said that he was in the prime of his youth.

However, his body and mind had maturated a lot through the coma he had.

His body and appearance were already like those of someone in their early twenties, around 23-25. While his mind was perhaps even older due to the "years" that it felt being in that dream with the Will of his father.

A single day in the outside world felt like many days within that dream where he trained and was taught many things… it couldn't be a bad estimation to say that he might have spent over 10 years inside of that dream, although outside it was 6 months… or perhaps way more years but Frank couldn't simply guess correctly.

Through that, his mind matured a lot, and now, he was given the chance to have a child with the woman he loved.

Although he still felt a bit frightened over the new responsibilities and more that might surge after it, Frank couldn't help but be… incredibly excited.

The thought of having a child made him feel chills run through his spine, but not in a bad way.

It was something completely thrilling, to be able to hold the child he made through the consummation of love with the one he loved… the one that inherited his blood and his capabilities, perhaps, even his powers.

And even more, it was a combination of both him and Gwendolyn, a new living being that he would bring to the world, reproduction was simply something beautiful, and he immediately understood why his father had fought so much for him… the beautifulness of having a child was something almost transcendental.

It was the sole purpose of life itself, reproduction.

Just imagine that little half-fox-kin baby resting over his arms, as he shared his warmth to it…

He simply couldn't wait.

He smiled warmly at Gwendolyn as he grabbed her other hand, and glanced at her beautiful emerald eyes.

"I was kind of guessing that it was the case…" he said gently.

"Eh? Really? And you didn't say anything?" asked Gwendolyn.

"Well, I didn't want to make you feel uncomfortable…" said Frank.

"Oh… Frank… you're… such a sweet man…" sighed Gwendolyn, realizing that Frank was way too considerate to tell her that he thought that she might be pregnant, as it might produce some kind of pressure on her.

Gwendolyn kissed Frank a bit, as she started to cry a bit.

The two hurriedly separated their lips as Frank began to clean her tears, although she kept crying… these were tears of happiness.

"Are you really okay with it? Even if I am a fox-kin?" she asked.

"Eh? Of course, I am, why wouldn't I?" asked Frank.

"Ah… Nothing. It is just that… I guess you don't get it because you are from another world but in Terra… well, there's a taboo over the inter-species coupling and the children that might come out of it… But I guess it doesn't really affect us seeing how strong we are… Yeah, I am just being dumb…" sighed Gwendolyn, the turmoil of emotions inside of her mind was making her think a lot of stuff, some of it was simply nonsensical, but Frank knew that there was some basis to it, perhaps one of her first fears was that.

"I see how it is. No, Gwendolyn. I have never minded you being the race you are. In fact, I was quite the fervent… admirer of fox girls on Earth," said Frank, as he recalled that he had many fox waifus, especially on the phone gacha game about boats made into cure girls.

"You… admirer fox girls? W-Were there fox-kin on Earth?" asked Gwendolyn innocently.

"Uuuh… Yeaaah. But only on fantasy books and other stuff. Wait, maybe there was a tribe of them… Well, I never meet one anyways, you were the first one I ever meet," said Frank, trying to not recall the many doujin he bought.

"Oh, I see… Ah, I am going too off-topic… A-Anyways, I am just happy… that you accept me as I am and even… are happy about our child. Even after seeing the circumstances and everything…" said Gwendolyn.

"Of course Gwendolyn. To me… you are one… of the persons that make life not horrible anymore. You are perhaps one of my biggest… emotional pillars. There are always many things inside of my mind, many things unresolved… my father… the Overseers, the Watchers above… the Gods on here…  reviving my parents… fighting the demon king… growing stronger… but every time I wake up and see your face… I think that all of that is not so bad when you are with me," said Frank while blushing a bit.

Gwendolyn's lips tightened as she glanced at Frank while crying even more.

"Ooh Frank!" she cried, hugging Frank tightly as she rested her head over his shoulder.

"I-I am the same… This world is so filled with screwed-up stuff… Being only with my daughter was already my limit… even with the strength I attained, I was always so afraid of everything… I always… tried to put on a bravado, to make myself seen as strong… this world… I always hoped for better times to come… and then you came, like a blessing from the heavens… Since the moment you appeared in my life that everything had started to change for the better, even though things are becoming more chaotic… I have become stronger… and also more confident in myself… than how I used to pretend I was… Each time I see you in the morning, I also think that life is not so bad with you…" said Gwendolyn.

"Gwendolyn…" muttered Frank, he couldn't resist it any longer as he began to cry as well, he was just like her, putting on a bravado, but he was indeed quite weak as well, very weak, he couldn't help but begin to cry while hugging her, the woman who had brought him so much happiness thought the same as him… they were perhaps more similar than he had originally thought.

The two cried a bit like babies, showing each other's weakness and soft emotions.

"I always wanted a man to love me and hold me as you do… You don't know how happy you make me…! Never go away, Frank…! Sniff…" cried Gwendolyn while kissing his neck and smelling the scent of his fluffy hair.

"I will never leave you… I will make sure to always keep you at my side… I love you just as you are…" said Frank, kissing Gwendolyn's cheeks and forehead, and constantly cleaning her tears. She was already quite the mess…

"I sometimes feel like I really don't… deserve you…" she said.

"Don't think things like that. I choose you because I love you… Don't overthink things," said Frank, kissing Gwendolyn's pointy nose.

"I see… Even at my age, I guess I still have my youthful charm! Ahh… Sniff…!" said Gwendolyn, trying to cheer herself up but she continued to cry for a little while, until Frank's caressing and lovely words of encouragement finally calmed her down.

The two passionately kissed for a few minutes while watching the sunset, as Gwendolyn began to wonder something.

"I wonder what name could we give it? Our child…" she said.

"A name…?" wondered Frank.
