Chapter 483: Chapter 475: Twins

Mammals can have twins, and naturally, oviparous creatures can have twin yolks.

Usually, it’s very difficult to hatch two lives from a twin yolk egg.

The reason is that the internal space of the egg shell is limited, making it difficult to support the simultaneous development of two lives, and there is a risk of insufficient oxygen supply and compression. Moreover, unlike mammals that can replenish nutrients at any time from their mothers, once an egg is laid, it can’t replenish nutrients from the outside world; the total amount of nutrition is fixed, making it hard to support two lives maturing simultaneously.

Under such difficult conditions, any successfully hatched twin yolk egg can be considered a miracle of life. As long as the newborns can come into this world healthily, being a bit frail is not a big deal at all.

“Not a deformity, but a twin yolk egg?” Cecilia frowned slightly, a trace of confusion in her eyes, murmuring, “Two lives nurtured in one egg, not enough nutrition, is that why they’re so skinny?”

“That’s definitely the reason… Next, as long as we provide them with adequate food, they will quickly grow and be no different from normal baby dragons.” Leon examined the two baby dragons. The two baby dragons looked identical, their heads more like Red Dragons, unlike Green Dragons who don’t have outer ears, but their scales were entirely green.

“Definitely, that’s definitely the case!” Cecilia shouted, then began to move around like a headless fly, “Where’s the food I prepared?”

“Here.” Since Cecilia and Leon had both transformed into human form, and sometimes human form is inconvenient, Laksha helped by bringing the food from a short distance away, gently placing it in front of the two baby dragons.

Leon silently watched the two baby dragons devour the food. They didn’t need to talk or even signal with their eyes; they could cooperate to split the food into suitable sizes. He couldn’t help but say, “As expected of a twin yolk egg… Twin yolk egg sounds ugly, let’s call them twins, such a perfect connection.”

The two baby dragons quickly finished the food Cecilia prepared for them, and soon, they lay lazily on the ground sleeping, drifting into dreamland in no time.

“Brother or sister?” Sharon, like a curious child—well, a young dragon is a child—moved close to the two baby dragons, carefully lifting the tail of one, staring intently.

“What are you doing?” Cecilia looked displeased.

“Just having a look.” Sharon muttered, “Seems like a sister.”

“Do they have names?” Sharon eagerly asked.

Leon, who suffered from naming difficulties, scratched his head upon hearing Sharon’s question and turned to look at Cecilia.

Cecilia stared blankly at Leon, with a slightly silly look, mumbling, “I could only think of one name.”

“Didn’t you have a lot of backup names?” Leon raised an eyebrow.

“We can’t use the backups; even the original isn’t suitable. It’s not fitting.” Cecilia’s expression turned serious, saying sincerely, “The twins’ names must align with their twin identity.”

“Well, you work hard on it then.” Leon shrugged, having learned long ago not to get entangled with women over trivial matters, “As for them, let’s call them the older and younger sister for now… By the way, who is the older and who the younger?”

“Twins can be judged from birth order, but they hatched from one egg together, so there’s no order.” Leon added.

Leon habitually looked at Anglistra and asked, “According to the giant dragon tradition, how do we distinguish the older and younger when twins hatch from a single dragon egg?”

“Is it okay not to distinguish?” Anglistra retorted.

Leon thought for a moment, nodded, and said, “Guess it wouldn’t be a problem.”

“You don’t have to distinguish, but you must tell them apart.” Leon raised his hand, used the Sleeve of the Universe, and took out two different styled bracelets, putting them on the hind legs of the two baby dragons.

“Oh right, I remember you gave Sharon a gift before…” Cecilia suddenly reacted, remembering something, eyes lighting up, “You wouldn’t have forgotten to prepare gifts for my children?”

“Of course, we didn’t forget.” Leon said as he looked around cooperatively.

“Naturally.” Anglistra noticed Leon looking at her, laughed awkwardly, “But I only prepared for one dragon, didn’t expect your egg would hatch twins, now we need to prepare another one.”

Leon nodded slightly, not too concerned, until he saw the gifts everyone gave to the two baby dragons—everyone gave a gift to each baby dragon, but the value was half of what was given to Sharon, showing such careful calculation as if afraid of losing out—a new understanding of the dragons’ stinginess.

Leon originally thought only he had trouble with naming, didn’t expect Cecilia to be similarly troubled, eventually spending a month giving the two baby dragons names—Sida and Tana, distinguishing by giving Sida an emerald known as the King of Emerald, and Tana a green tourmaline.

When Sida and Tana first hatched, they were skinny, mainly because a single dragon egg couldn’t provide enough nutrition for two lives. After hatching, with sufficient food, they grew within a month, although still smaller than Sharon at the same age.

Next, just like they educated Sharon, Cecilia and Leon worked together to raise the two baby dragons. Cecilia meticulously endowed the two baby dragons with all necessary skills for effective manipulation and hypocrisy, while Leon focused on establishing their correct worldview and values.

A year passed.

The two baby dragons, due to having the Red Dragon’s mixed blood, not only had physiques resembling Red Dragons more than Green Dragons but also shared the fierce temperament of Red Dragons, though they didn’t lack the cunning side of Green Dragons.

Regarding the two baby dragons, the evaluation was Sida as fierce and cunning, Tana as cunning and fierce.

Despite being young, the two baby dragons knew various Breaths, Red Dragon’s Flame Breath, Green Dragon’s Poison Breath, and Jade Dragon’s Confusing Heart Breath, possessing multiple damage resistances, and being innate spellcasters, one preferred melee, the other spellcasting.

“What’s going on!” Fiora still wasn’t pregnant.

“Salovis said she could help, but demanded at least ten thousand Gold Coins as a reward, though she would refund if unsuccessful, it just felt like a scam. Rather, should we just go for a night raid directly?” Laksha was still hesitant.

Leon’s Divine Sword was first remolded, gaining divinity, then embedded at the Volcano Top for a long time, collecting spiritual energy from heaven and earth daily, absorbing the essence of the sun and moon, and finally gained Spiritual Wisdom.
