6 Spreading Round.

Now that his wife and baby were back home safely, Ethan had somewhere to go to. He glanced at Emma and said,

"Emma, I'll be going to my animal field now, I have things to handle there".

Emma only nodded her head, then Ethan departed from the house. But before he left, he pecked Emma and Little Aiden on the forehead, then caressed Hazel's hair.

Emma was still carrying her baby and glancing directly into his cute eyes, and Hazel couldn't help but cuddle his right hand a little. Ethan was a little confused if Hazel was happy to have a little brother or not. Well, she was, just that she didn't know how to express it minutes ago.

Emma glanced at Hazel and said, "Let's go into my room".

The moment she made that statement, she began sauntering towards her room with Little Aiden in her hands, the room she shares with her husband...and Hazel followed her from behind.

They stepped foot into the room, and Aiden's crib was right in the middle of it. As known, Ethan had already bought these things ahead of time. Emma strolled to the bed and sat on it, and Hazel joined her.

For every single place they step foot into, Aiden makes sure to scan around. The moment his new mum stepped foot into the room, he managed to swivel his little head and glance around...it's better to start inspecting where he'll be residing from now on.

Sitting on the bed, Hazel had already started cuddling her little brother's hand once again. But she had noticed something, and she didn't waste time voicing it out,

"Doesn't this baby cry? He hasn't cried since you and dad brought him here".

"He didn't even cry after I gave birth to him". Emma uttered glancing at her daughter.

"What!". Hazel voiced out with a bewildered facial expression.

They had no single idea that this was what was running through Aiden's mind,

'Why would I cry? Don't you know I'm an adult in a baby's body? My mindset is as that of an adult'.

"Seems like my little brother is special". Hazel uttered.

Emma nodded her head a little and smiled, then Hazel voiced out once again,

"What's his name, mum?".

"Aiden…Aiden Dankworth". Emma responded.

"That's a nice name". Hazel uttered with a little smile on her face.

"Yes, all thanks goes to your dad, he was the one that gave him the name before I consented to it".

Hazel did nothing but nod her head to that statement. Then she and her mum spent the rest of the time glancing at and cuddling, Little Aiden.

The news about Ethan having a son now had spread around the community. Not everyone cared about the news though, they weren't concerned about it. Some were like, 'Who is Ethan?'.

He was a low-ranked chief and also a warrior, but not everyone knows him. Not all the citizens of the Tuvalon Kingdom know the names of their chiefs and nobles. They didn't care about such things.

They didn't even know all the names of the high-ranked and average-ranked chiefs, not to talk of the low-ranked ones. To cut the explanation short...

..They didn't care about politics.

So when the news was spreading round that one of the low-ranked chiefs had a son now, they didn't know what they were talking about. But some people cared about the news, both males and females.

It wasn't a joke, having a son in this kingdom was very important, it could grant you respect. So when the people that cared about the news heard that Ethan was a father to a son now...there were two reactions to it.

Some were happy for him 'cause he wouldn't be mocked anymore, he'll be granted respect, his rank as a chief could even increase. But some people weren't happy for him, they were envious of him...and most of these people were men.

Why were they envious of him? 'Cause he wouldn't be part of their league anymore. Some men hadn't given birth to sons yet, some don't even have children at all. But things were different now, Ethan has a son now, he wasn't part of their league anymore...they were envious of him.

Many of the chiefs and nobles had also heard about the news of Ethan having a son now. And they reacted differently to it also, many of the low-ranked chiefs and nobles weren't happy for him, only a few were.

But Ethan wasn't concerned about their different reactions, all he knew was that he has a son now.

It's been two days after the birth of Aiden into this world, the news was able to spread round under that two days. And though people were emitting different energy due to Aiden's birth, Ethan and Emma couldn't be happier.

Emma's relatives had heard of the news, and they were so happy for her. Emma's dad died a long time ago, but her mum and younger sister were still alive...sound and healthy. And they planned on visiting, they wanted to see the baby.

Both of Ethan's parents were dead, the only closest relative he had was his older brother who was also a chief.

Right now, the Dankworth family aside from, Aiden, was sitting round a dining table and having breakfast. They were having a nice meal of porridge with big fish on top of each plate. The food was prepared by, Emma, a good cook.

Hazel was having problems making use of the dining table 'cause she was short, it was always like this for her, but she could eat her food anyway. Once they were done having breakfast, Ethan would head straight to his animal field, he had lots of things to handle there.

Hazel would head straight to the academy where she learns public speaking, writing, and other things, Ethan would take her there. And Emma would take care of the baby.

In the middle of their eating, Emma said to Ethan,

"My beloved, my mum and sister would be coming to see the baby today".

"Oh! That's nice, that's okay by me. I just hope I'll be able to come back on time to see them". Ethan voiced out.

They had moved Aiden's crib to the living room, and while they were eating, he was glancing at their food...and these were the thoughts running through his mind,

'This isn't fair, look at the delicious meal they are eating, and I'm just lying here watching? I want to eat too. But seems like I haven't gotten to the stage to eat solid food yet, I'll just have to keep drinking breast milk'.

After some minutes more, they were done eating, and Emma didn't waste time clearing the plates off the dining table. Then Ethan said to, Hazel,

"Hazel, I'll ride you to the academy as usual".

"OK, dad. But before we go, let me cuddle my little brother a little". Hazel uttered.

She walked toward Aiden's crib, held his little hand, swung it a little, strolled to her father, and said,

"I'm ready to go now".

With that, she and Ethan departed from the house. But before they did so, Ethan pecked Emma on the cheek, and Emma pecked Hazel on the forehead.

After they had departed, Emma strolled to Aiden's crib and picked him up from it. Then she glanced directly into his eyes while saying,

"Are you hungry my baby? I can't even tell when you're hungry or not 'cause you don't cry".

The moment Aiden heard that statement, these were the thoughts running through his mind,

'I'm hungry, breastfeed me, I have a quest to accomplish. Let me cry to show her how hungry I am...how do I even cry?'.

He had come to understand something about the system, and it was the daily quests part. For every single day he drinks breast milk, he gets a system notification that he had completed the daily quest.

He completed one daily quest on the day he was born, he completed the second one yesterday, drinking breast milk right now would make him complete three daily quests. That's why he was eager for his mum to breastfeed him...this was something he had come to understand.

He was still trying to cry when Emma voiced out once again,

"Even if you don't cry, I'll have to breastfeed you 'cause it's compulsory".

With that, she loosened her robe a little, brought out her right boob, and the moment Aiden sighted it, he thought to himself,

'Here comes the boob'.

The breast went straight into his mouth, and he began sucking breast milk straight into the body. Sucking for close to a minute, the system's interface appeared in front of him, and this is what he saw there,
