My Immortal Brother-in-law

Chapter 161 The Birth of Leonidas
From that day on, Zhong Su knew his current name, Leonidas!

The moment this name appeared, even though Zhong Suli did not understand the language of this world yet, he could hear something familiar in it.

Then, as time passed, when Zhong Su was twenty days old, he was able to stand up and walk, and even climb to the window to look at the outside world.

His understanding of the current world is already very accurate.

That’s right, this is Sparta, and I am the famous Leonidas!
Zhong Su's knowledge of Leonidas undoubtedly only exists in movies and various stories.

But in fact, Leonidas was not born a king, and his situation as a child was even extremely difficult.

Until now, he had been born for exactly twenty days, but he had never seen his father. He was only accompanied by his mother, Mrs. Poche, and his two-year-old brother, Dorieus.

Looking at Leonidas, who was full of life at only twenty days old, Mrs. Poche's face was filled with pride.

She was seen holding her brother Dorieus and speaking to them expectantly.

“This is truly Ares’s protection, I actually gave birth to a son who is comparable to a demigod!

If I had not had sex with only one person, I would even suspect whether something had been done to me by the gods hidden in the human world.

It's only been twenty days, and he's actually... even stronger than you, Dorie!

He is truly a natural born warrior. I have already figured out how to train him. He will leave his peers far behind from an early age, and he will create a new Spartan myth from the very beginning!

Leonidas, you are worthy of the name I left for you. You are not only the son of a lion, you are also my lion!

It’s a pity that you are too young, otherwise...

I really want to have a warrior like you."

As she spoke, Mrs. Poche picked up Zhong Su, placed her on her body and began massaging her vigorously.

Even when her son was young, Poche insisted on taking care of his body. She believed that this would make her son extraordinary, and most Spartan women did the same.

In this kind of upbringing, Zhong Suli reached six months old. Now, relying on his own magical powers, he has grown into a strong baby who is far better than a seven or eight-year-old child.

It was not until he was six months old that he met his father for the first time.

He was a bear-like man wearing only a battle skirt, with a strong body and thick hair!

When the man stepped into their house, Zhong Su's mother hugged Zhong Su with dissatisfaction and said to the man.

"I don't know whether I should welcome you after concluding our marriage contract, even though I have given birth to your second son!

Neither I nor my sons were ever recognized by your men, even though I am a descendant of Achaea and a woman of the same name as Achiades.

They also do not acknowledge my children, and say that my sons are my illegitimate children with others!"

At this point, Boche angrily pulled six-month-old Zhong Su in front of the man and showed him Zhong Su's body, which was much stronger than any other child.

"Look at this lion-like child, even at only six months old, he is the most amazing child ever born in Sparta!
At six months old, he could not only sprint, but he could even try to use a chair leg as a javelin and throw it at least fifteen meters away!

Such a demigod-like offspring can only be born with the purest Achaean blood, and it must even include the blessing of the gods and the watchful eye of Ares!

I believe that even Odysseus at his age would not have such strength and body. Perhaps only Hercules himself could have such a talent!
He is Leonidas, your and my child!

If Evers had not forced you and me out of our marriage, this child would have been crowned king!

But now, everything is irreversible. Your eldest son Cleomenes has been recognized by many ministers. Even though he is only four years old, the foolish ministers only recognize him as your eldest son!
But, Sandrides, I firmly believe that Leonidas is destined to ascend the throne!
Even if he does not have such an identity, he will eventually rely on his blood, flesh, sword and spear to conquer every Spartan man who sees him and every Spartan woman who desires him! You will see that day!"

"Yes, I will see that day. I am already longing for it, my dearest wife!"

Sandrides interrupted Poche because he was not here to see the child at all.

He was not interested in this child because Zhong Su was already his third child.

For him, having one child is enough.

As long as one of his sons can prove that he can give birth to an heir, he will have obtained the throne of Sparta!

Once upon a time, as if cursed by the gods, the two of them had been married for three whole years without having a child.

Because of this, the Spartans began to spread the rumor that Sandriders was a prince who looked strong but was actually weak inside and would not have an heir!
As a result, more and more Spartan ministers began to support his brother, even though he had defeated his brother openly and in public with the most brutal means more than once.

The strength that the Spartan people believed in was not just the kind of strength on the battlefield.

If you are not strong in offspring, if you cannot produce enough children, then you are ultimately a person who cannot hide your weakness.

So, in the fourth year of Sandrides and Poche's marriage, Sandrides' uncle, King Evers of the Euripondeti family, forced Sandrides to divorce Poche.

Soon after that, Sandrides had his first son, Cleomenes, with another woman.

When Cleomenes was born, Sandrides finally secured his throne and became the second king to be fully recognized by the mainstream society of Sparta.

After that, Sandrides, who felt he had everything, couldn't help but miss Poche's strong and beautiful body.

So, even after the engagement was broken off, Sandrides still came to Poche's house again and again.

This also led to Poche giving birth to her first child, Dorieus.

The birth of a child by Pochi made Cleomenes' mother feel panicked, so after that, more and more ministers who were optimistic about Cleomenes began to put pressure on Sandrides.

So now, Sandrides, who has secured his inheritance and just wants to start things quickly with Poche, actually hates Poche's sons.

It is precisely because they are constantly being born that it is becoming increasingly difficult for me to come here.

So, now, having been away from Poche for more than ten months, Sandrides no longer cares about the strong Leonidas and the so-called son of the lion.

He, Sandrides, did not want to be that lion.

He just wants to be a man, a real man!
……

As his parents continued to talk, Zhong Su, who had already learned Greek, looked at the world with more and more excitement.

No, I am Leonidas now?

Forget it, since you are already a son, why should you criticize your parents?

Zhong Su shook his head, ran out of the room, and went outside to exercise and bask in the sun, no longer paying attention to the two people in the room.

While exercising, Zhong Su was silently sensing the world.

This world is far from being as simple as history.
