Raymond felt that he was warm all over, as if being wrapped in the liquid of the egg shell before hatching, warm and safe.
He slowly opened his eyes and found himself lying in a strange place with thick liquid all around his body. The light in this place was so dim that you can hardly see anything.
Suddenly, he heard a clear voice from the outside, "Yes, this is the cub of Marshal Raymond and me."
Raymond: "???"
It seemed that he had heard the sound from somewhere, he just couldn't remember it for now.
The tone of the man's speech was a bit awkward and slow, but he could still understand what he said, but even if he could understand the words, it didn't mean that he understood the sentence in a whole.
His cub?
Where did this come from?
He joined the army as soon as he graduated. He only focused on how to improve his abilities and study various tactics. He rarely came into contact with females and subbeastmen, so how could he has cubs?
Before Raymond had time to figure it out, he felt that his body didn't seem to be right.
The wound that had been painful before, did not feel any pain at all.
He tried to move the scales and twisted his body and was surprised to find that not only was his body healed from the injuries, even the broken spines and ribs had been connected!
Jin Suo felt a little itchy in his shell, so he guessed that Da Hei should be awake, but now it was not convenient to release the python, so Jin Suo could only bear it first.
Raymond felt that it was incredible. His injury was so serious that even if the doctor connected the bones, the injuries wouldn't be healed so quickly.
But suddenly, Raymond couldn't care anymore about the surprise disappearance of his wounds, because he found that the energy that ran around in his body because of the broken tendons was gone.
It also didn't stop there!
Raymond's whole snake's body froze!
His energy core...
The energy core he shattered because of the energy leakage a few days ago, was now intact?!!
Those broken tendons were also well connected to the energy core.
It seemed that his energy core and veins had never been broken!
Raymond carefully circulated the energy in his body and found that it was not only functioning normally, but there was also no energy collision within the tendons!
Raymond, who had always been steady and resilient, couldn't help getting excited at this moment, and flicked his tail vigorously.
"Well.." Jin Suo frowned again, while covering his stomach.
"What's wrong? Are you uncomfortable?" Xi Ze, who had been watching him, asked nervously.
The other doctors in the examination room also looked at him together, all looking nervous.
This subbeastman was not only Marshal Raymond's partner, he also carried the first cub in the history of the Empire who had exactly the same genetic chain as his father.
Jin Suo waved his hand and smiled, "It's nothing, it's just the cub moving in my stomach."1
Xi Ze found it a bit funny. Cubs were all born from the egg and it didn't move in the belly.
"The egg won't move in the stomach, besides, you have not been pregnant for a long time now, so it should not have grown into an egg yet."
Golden Snail: "........."
It turned out that he was pregnant with an egg.
No, no, what the hell, that was his little brother Da Hei.
Jin Suo smiled calmly, "It's probably because of a mother's instinct, so I always feel something is moving inside."1
"Somebody who just got pregnant can really have such an illusion." The doctor couldn't help but said.1
The talk between them changed into a lot of basic knowledge and precautions for pregnant men and women, the doctor also strongly recommended that Jin Suo set up the file for the cub in their legal education bureau.
From inside the belly, Raymond could hear very clearly the conversation from the outside, he even heard Corey's voice. Those sounds seemed to be very close, but it felt like they were separated by some layers.
There were also the words "Marshal Raymond" and "Cubs" that were mentioned over and over again, which made him felt very strange.
He was swimming around, trying to get out of this place, but he couldn't find the exit for a long time. Raymond could only fumble along the "wall" slowly.
This "wall" was very strange. It was warm and hot. What even more strange was the "ground" which was soft and had a thick layer of mucus.
"Well.."
Jin Suo frowned again. His little brother was too impatient. He should have stayed for a while if he already woken up. When there was no one, Jin Suo would naturally let him out. But, if he moved around like this, it would only make him very uncomfortable.
The golden snail quickly reached into the shell while the others were not paying attention, and hit the younger brother as a warning.
Raymond was swimming slowly along the "wall", when suddenly there was a smack on his forehead by something falling from the sky.1
The Marshal who hadn't been flicked on his forehead since little: "...."1
Back to Jin Suo and the others outside, even with the persuasion of the doctor, they still chose not to establish a file in the Legal Education Bureau here.
This planet was too far away from the Central Star. It was only connected to the Interstellar Network decades ago, so the development was still far behind. So, how could they set up a file for the Marshal's cub here? They should only do it in the Central Star.
Marshal Raymond still had hundreds of billions of inheritance and only the Central Star had the best school. This cub had to receive the best education that he could get.
After discussing with Corey, Xi Ze suggested that the golden snail should be returned to the Central Star first, before setting up a file for the cub.
Jin Suo just followed the arrangement of these two people, so his problem to live in the human society would be easily solved. Moreover, the dead "Marshal Raymond" seemed to be very rich.
So, he readily accepted this good suggestion.
***
The whole interstellar network was mourning for Marshal Raymond's death.
Among them was a woman named Cyril, who even cried for several times and fainted.
She claimed to be Marshal Raymond's fiancee and she had been pregnant for more than two months now. She was about to lay the Marshal's cub's eggs and happily waiting for Raymond to return triumphantly from the battle. But what he heard was only the bad news of Raymond's sacrifice.
In the video, Cyril had a mighty serpentine pattern on her beautiful forehead, her belly was also slightly bulging, it looked like that she was about to give birth.
The video spread quickly on the Star Net. Many people who worshiped the Marshal and deplored the Marshal's sacrifice for the country showed great sympathy for Cyril.
They rushed to repost this video. It didn't need a long time for this video, that was put together with the video of Marshal Raymond's energy leakage to be viral on the interstellar network.
This woman named Cyril was very beautiful, her appearance that liked a plum blossom after the rain was also very pitiful.
"The marshal's fiancee is really pitiful."
"She devoted her heart and soul waiting for her lover to come back to get married, but the only thing that she got was the sad news about her lover's sacrifice on the battlefield. Who wouldn't be full of sorrow??"
"This cub must be like the Marshal, he will grow up to be as powerful as him."
"Mrs. Marshal no need to feel sad anymore, we're all supporting you. You must be strong and raise your cubs well."
***
In these remarks in support of Cyril, one or two doubtful voices occasionally appeared.
"Miss Cyril, please show the genetic test from the Interstellar Legal Education Bureau to prove that this is indeed Marshal Raymond's cub."
"The genetic test from the Interstellar Legal Education Bureau need to be shown to prevent those who have bad intentions from taking advantage of the opportunity to touch porcelain* for profit. Marshal Raymond has hundreds of billions of fortunes, so it can't be denied that there might be a possibility for someone to say that he is pregnant with Marshal's child, just to inherit those fortunes."
*A trick that people use to gain profits, even when the situation was already unmenable.
Such doubts naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of many netizens.
"The Marshal's official information shows that he is unmarried and the Marshal's Mansion has never announced any news about the marshal's engagement, but now suddenly there's a fiancee who appears out of nowhere."
"Upstairs, official information shows that being unmarried does not mean that there is no fiancee. Moreover, it is not always necessary for every couple to get engaged before getting married. There are many people who get married directly without getting engaged."
"Miss Cyril has been very miserable and pitiful already, and you still have the need to raise such doubts. Do you even have any sympathy?!"
"Who would joke about this kind of thing, the cub is also the only thing that Marshal Raymond left, so shouldn't it be a happy thing?"
"The Marshal's father and mother never question the truth behind this news, indicating that Cyril was really the Marshal's fiancee, and it's also true that she is pregnant."

T/N:
No need to worry readers, this Cyril is just a scammer. I personally hate stories with third love interest, so I guarantee you that this story is 1v1 till the end. Maybe, I'll update the next 2 chapters tomorrow.
