Daya shook her head. “Hubby, if you can’t remember, then don’t. The past isn’t important, the present is. Just look at our daughter. She has your nose and mouth!”
Alex calmed himself once more.
‘Daya is right, no matter what happened in our past lives, it should stay in the past. Even if a psychic said that I used to be some emperor, it would all just be mere stories. It’s got nothing to do with the present. Besides, even without the past, I would still love Daya even more now.’
“Can I hug her?” Alex asked.
“She’s your daughter. Of course, you can.”
Alex slowly picked up the baby girl in his arms. He was extremely careful as if afraid a single mistake might hurt her tiny, frail body.
However, as Alex held her, he instantly felt an unusual amount of Nature’s power.
‘This newborn infant actually possesses such a large amount of Nature’s power in her! This is shocking.’
Alex looked towards Daya. “Why is Nature’s power within her body so strong? That’s so strange. And shouldn’t she be only due in two months? How did she give birth to her now? Is this baby premature?”
Daya shook her head. “Nope, it’s just that there’s a side chamber in this palace where time passes quicker than usual. You can even adjust it on your own. So I stayed there for a bit and gave birth! And as for the power, I don’t think it’s strange at all. This is Nature’s Palace, and it’s filled with Nature’s power. So the fact that she’s born here means that this power is born within her. It’s not unnatural that she’s managed to receive some of it.”
Alex was shocked, especially since Daya seemed familiar with the palace.
‘Now, this is even weirder.’
“Daya, have you been here before? How else could you be so familiar with this place?”
Daya shook her head. “That’s why I asked you if you remembered who I was.”
“Is she cold?”
“I think she’s hungry,
Daya panicked. “I tried, but I haven’t produced any yet. Back then, one of my close friends gave birth and only managed to produce milk after a day or two. What do we do?”
“Why are you looking at me? I don’t have any!”
Daya rushed up the stairs as lotus flowers continued to bloom under her feet She ran with all her might for the sake of her daughter, quickly disappearing from Alex’s view.
After ten minutes or so, a giant lotus flower fell from the sky and landed on the baby’s forehead.
“What… What’s happening?”
