Sealing the clone resting in the corridor in a pre-prepared scroll, I ran out of the house and using shunshin, I found myself near the fence, from where I moved in the usual way. In the living room, a slightly nervous woman was waiting for me, jumping up with a mute question in her eyes.
- The delivery went well, a healthy baby girl, her appetite is excellent," I reported to them.
Saya and Linley sighed in relief, smiling.
- Hey, with me around, how could anything happen?! - I was slightly indignant. - A first-degree iryonin and a recently deceased person is able to bring back to life, not like taking in a child who's been observed all the way through!
