Chapter 1165: That’s not all you bought, is it?
Leaving everyone, Idan entered the family home. Arabel was already waiting for him in the bedroom with a guilty expression on her face.
He didn’t need to guess the reason for her condition.
“81250 System points,” sighed Idan, and Arabel felt even more uncomfortable when she heard these numbers.
“Of course, I understand that girls like to go shopping and buy new things. But this…” Idan paused, not knowing how to express his thoughts, at the same time, memories flashed through his mind of how he himself had accompanied Arabel and Esma through the shopping malls.
“I… I didn’t want. It just happened,” Arabel said softly, looking away. “Besides, it’s not even half of what we had.”
“Belle, you’re not serious, are you?” Idan couldn’t believe his ears.
He opened the System Window and looked at the number of remaining System Points – 92390.
Yes, it’s not half, but almost.
Idan grabbed his hair.
He wasn’t angry, but he was at a loss as to how it had happened. He understood her condition, but it was hard for him to imagine how so many System Points could be spent.
There was silence.
Arabel was afraid that Idan would get angry.
Yes, the System points were shared. Yes, she understood their significance. And before making such purchases, she should have discussed it with him. Then there wouldn’t be this awkward moment right now.
She was aware that she had spent a large amount of total System Points. Instead of hiding, dodging, or waiting for Idan to figure it out on his own, she decided to be frank.
“Dan, I… I wanted to buy something to distract myself, and then the System recommended baby care manuals…” As a result, Arabel began to explain, rather than remain silent.
“They weren’t that expensive, and I thought they might help me relieve my boredom. But…”.
“But what?”
“As soon as I purchased them, the system recommended training equipment for me.”
“Training equipment?”
“Yes, such as “Baby feeding training equipment”, “Swaddling and changing clothes training equipment” and many others.”
“And you bought them all?”
Arabel nodded dumbly.
The system points did not disappear without a trace. Arabel spent it on things she needed in her condition.
Idan’s initial shock passed when he realized that the System Points hadn’t disappeared without a trace. Arabel spent it on things that were necessary not only in her current condition, but also for the future after the birth of their child.
If it had been about ordinary things, he might have just laughed at her sudden shopping spree. But everything that was sold through the “Trade” function could not be ordinary. Even a simple manual purchased from the System could contain knowledge that was not available in the entire outside world.
“That’s not all you bought, is it?”
He was very interested in what else she had spent her System Points on and what items she had acquired from the “Trade” function.
Of course, Arabel immediately noticed his curiosity and was happy to share her purchases with him.
Manuals and simulators were just the beginning.
She bought a lot of other things.
When Idan saw the entire list, he felt dizzy.
However, he quickly noticed one oddity and excitedly asked Arabel:
“Are we going to have twins?”
Arabel’s smile faded, and she gently stroked her stomach.
“I… I do not know,” she said softly. “I still can’t see through the barrier.”
Idan’s joy evaporated, and he couldn’t help but ask a question.:
“If you don’t know, why did you buy two sets at once?”
Arabel was in no hurry to answer, because she was aware of her haste and did not want to justify herself.
Idan came and sat next to her, took her hands and felt her anxiety.
“Dan, I’m not sure who we’re going to have,” she said, grabbing his hand and placing it on her stomach.
“Lately, I’ve been worried about outbreaks of the fire element, and they’re getting more frequent every day.”
Idan’s face instantly became serious, and he gently felt her stomach. Compared to the last time, he clearly felt a stronger presence of the fire element.
“Is that why you purchased both the Ice and Fire sets?”
Arabel nodded, biting her lip slightly.
Idan wanted to say that he should have waited and made sure before making purchases, but he didn’t say anything.
What’s done is done.
“We can sell the extra things when we find out who’s going to be born,” Arabel hastened to suggest, noticing Idan’s silence.
“No,” — Idan shook his head. “We won’t sell.”
Arabel squished her eyes.
“If you don’t need them now, they may come in handy in the future,” he said with a smile.
Arabel frowned slightly, but when she realized the meaning of his words, she slapped him on the arm.
“Ouch!” — Idan exclaimed, pulling his hand away, but the smile continued to play on his face.
Arabel pouted and looked away.
Then the corners of her lips turned up slightly.
Meanwhile, Idan reviewed Arabel’s shopping list again. There were even two cradles on this list: one for a baby with an ice element, and the other with a fire element.
Looking at all this, Idan couldn’t help but smile and whispered, “It would be wonderful if we had twins — a boy and a girl.”
“Valkyrie and Alpha?”—Arabel, of course, could not help but notice his words.
Idan nodded.
“You know, it’s quite possible,” to Idan’s surprise, Arabel didn’t deny the possibility.
“Yes, if you believe the stories of the older sisters, it would be impossible. But we have a System that has already accomplished the impossible by giving us multiple bloodlines.”
“So I wouldn’t be surprised if we had both Valkyrie and Alpha,” Arabel said, stroking her stomach with both hands, beginning to realize that she might be right in her assumptions.
“Especially since we both have twins in our family. And I have a twin brother myself,” she smiled.
“Indeed,” Idan agreed, and their conversation smoothly turned to speculation about who their child would be.
After that, they moved to the kitchen, where Idan once again prepared a delicious breakfast for her. They then took a short walk before Arabel returned to the time room.
She had a lot of things to do this time.
Another day has passed in the Kingdom, and Arabel has more than ten days inside the time room, having already passed the 4th month of pregnancy.
