Sig climbed onto the carriage nimbly and shouted inside, "Miss! Are you okay? Are you still conscious?"
There was dead silence, but the smell of burning became more and more distinct.
Sig hesitated, turned around, and glanced at the woman who was asking for help: "...I have offended you."
The woman asking for help seemed to have had a premonition. She was already crying profusely and could not utter a word. She could only nod continuously.
The carriage was quite large, and it looked like these two women had once come from well-off families. Sig climbed inside and saw a young woman in a robe lying on a bench with her eyes closed, covered in a thick blanket. Her belly was slightly swollen, and her body was trembling.
But even breathing has stopped.
But the problem was that Sig could clearly smell the horrible burnt smell.
[Sieg, please!]
"I care about money, but I don't care about the people." The poet mentally reassured the mage captain, who was waiting outside the car. Without further delay, he immediately cast several commonly used healing spells on the woman.
The faint golden light penetrated into the pregnant woman's body, causing her trembling to become more intense, but her breathing still did not recover.
Sig gasped slightly. "...It's over! He's stopped breathing. Sister Elastrid, maybe you'll have to come!"
By this time, Elastrid had also arrived outside the carriage. The carriage was spacious enough for Elastrid and Sig to ride side by side. Upon hearing the news, the pastor climbed into the carriage almost immediately.
Elastrid had been a priest in Baldur's Gate for many years and had actually experienced this level of situation more than once. She immediately came to the conclusion: [Her condition is extremely critical.]
Emiya replied: [Just go for the high-level divine arts.]
Elastrid nodded and placed her hand on the woman's forehead. "...Healing."
This spell with an inconspicuous name is actually of the sixth level. It takes effect instantly and can dispel diseases from the recipient while injecting surging positive energy into the target. It can be said that it is a bit too luxurious to use it to save a seriously injured pregnant woman.
However... the divine arts she currently possessed were all performed by Metatron after communicating with the gods. Naturally, there was no need to consider saving money or disappointing the gods.
After this spell is cast, not to mention that she is bleeding from difficult labor, even if she loses all her limbs, she will be able to breathe again immediately.
——If not, then they should prepare for the funeral now.
However, this woman was lucky enough. With the help of medical treatment, the pregnant woman breathed in pain for a few times and opened her eyes after leaving.
However, although her breathing had recovered, it was mixed with painful moans, and it was obvious that she was still struggling on the edge of the abyss of pain and torture.
Obviously, they were just playing tug-of-war with death, but the reason why the pregnant woman was seriously injured was still in her body.
Elastrid lifted a corner of the blanket with experience and murmured, "There's no blood."
So, it’s not a traditional difficult birth.
-----------------
"...Do you have any ideas? Do you have any ideas?"
The pregnant woman had fallen into a coma for unknown reasons, and her sister was not in much better condition. She was obviously completely panicked and almost incoherent at the moment.
However, Emilia still wanted to ask the most crucial question at this moment: "You were burned... What exactly happened?"
"...Olma used to say that her belly had been warm since she became pregnant, and I even joked that it was a good thing..." The poor woman was a bit disoriented and her words were garbled. "But as her belly grew bigger, she started saying that it went from warm to scalding hot. She often couldn't sleep all night and had to pour cold water on her belly..."
"Looking back, there really was something wrong with that child... She insisted on coming to Haligard for help, but she started screaming halfway... When she finally stopped, I realized she had fainted..."
At this moment, Elastri's voice rang out again, filled with worry: "The pregnant woman is very weak... She has been suffering from severe pain and has no strength left. The delivery cannot proceed. We can only try external intervention."
She said: [We have a final solution... If this delivery is important, we will simply open the abdomen, forcibly remove the child, and then suture the wound and heal it with divine magic.]
The problem is, there's no pain relief spell in the divine arts. This spell is extremely devastating to the mother. I need an assistant... to hold her down, provide continuous treatment, and suture her wounds. Each task requires someone, preferably a skilled worker, otherwise...
Elastrid's voice became a little more harsh. "If the mother's current condition is caused by the fetus, my suggestion is to kill the fetus. The mother is more important than the child."
Metatron quickly came to a conclusion: [If all else fails, use a spell to put the mother into suspended animation, maintain her condition, and then slowly figure out a solution.]
And Emilia was thinking at this moment.
Not long ago, they encountered a red dragon that could drag lightning.
Now, an unborn fetus actually began to burn its own mother?
...Elements? Are the elements of this world far more active than those of Toril, causing the mortals living on this planet to begin to be affected?
But that's a matter for later. He frowned and asked, "Childbirth...is just squeezing the fetus out of the uterus, right? Since we have enough manpower, can't we just pull it out somehow?"
"No." Elastri said flatly. "I've just... observed her. Unfortunately, the burns are severe. I can see the charred flesh with my own eyes. Using traditional methods, about a third of her body would be charred by the time the baby is born. By then, the damage would likely be worse than a Caesarian section."
Emiya hesitated for a moment, then subconsciously asked, "Can we use a reduction surgery? Simply reducing the fetus to one-tenth its original size might solve a lot of the problems?"
This spell, as its name suggests, simply reduces a creature or object to one-eighth its original size. If Emiya were to put it this way, this spell could practically eliminate the difficulties of childbirth itself.
[Shrinkage?! That won't work...] Elastrid retorted almost instinctively, but paused, then paused in thought. [...Perhaps? Assisting with childbirth is usually an internal matter of the Church, so the involvement of arcane magic has never been considered.]
Emiya said: [Since we are almost at our wit's end, even if we try...]
Before he could finish his words, he felt something light behind him. Yin, who had been showing no interest at all, suddenly scurried over to the carriage table and said, "Let me do it, let me do it!"
The details of performing this spell were inevitably not suitable for men, so Emilia could only sigh and wait outside the car.
The pregnant woman's sister naturally had no way of eavesdropping on the content of their mind connection, and was at a loss at the moment.
But no matter what, inside the carriage, the woman in labor suddenly let out a short scream, while Elastrid and Sig gave a heartfelt exclamation.
At the same time, the loud cry of a baby was heard in the carriage.
Soon, the admiration turned into exclamations: "Silver, be careful!!"
However, Yin's voice seemed to be completely pain-free. "It's okay. You guys treat the pregnant woman first. She's fainted from the pain again. I'm taking this bad kid out who played with fire when she was still a baby. We can't let her burn this carriage too."
An invisible hand lifted the curtain, and a ball of fire suddenly illuminated the vision of everyone outside the carriage.
Emiya was stunned for a moment.
At first glance, it looked like a perfectly normal baby girl, except that traditional wrapping didn't seem to be working for her.
The baby still had a lot of lanugo on its body, but the shocking thing was that these lanugos were clearly wisps of dancing flames.
This is not a metaphor, there really is an extremely active fire element swirling around her!
She was undoubtedly a human, not one of the genasi who had been active in Calimshan—but Emiya had never heard of a human setting fire while in the fetus!
With a look of disgust on her face, Yin wrapped the baby who had nearly burned its mother to death in a ball of silver fire and held it in her arms. Her clothes even had a few scorch marks, clearly having been affected by the fire as well.
She thought for a moment and then turned away, saying, "Unknown lady, I can't return her to you right now... The good news is that this little one probably isn't too afraid of hypothermia. She should be fine for now."
Just at this moment, the little guy finally woke up, opened his eyes wide and looked into Yin's eyes.
Then, he actually burst into laughter while looking at her.
-----------------
"Hello... My name is Sasan Al Aidhorst, and my sister, the pregnant woman who was rescued by you, is called Olma Al Aidhorst." After dozens of extremely exciting minutes, the woman who asked for help from Emiya and her group finally came to her senses, introduced herself to Emiya and others, and expressed her gratitude.
At this moment, the baby was lying quietly in the crib and sleeping soundly. This crib was made of the scales of a creature called the fire snake from the fire elemental plane. After being left there for a long time, its scales would gradually lose their scorching heat, allowing mortals to touch them. This special biological material was also one of the large amounts of materials collected by Emiya and his group before they set out.
The first time the treasury was used was to make a stroller for a child.
She was almost exhausted at this moment and could only sit in the carriage with great difficulty. She whispered, "My brother-in-law, Ainata, works in Haligard as an assistant to an elder. Now, although my sister has been saved, my father must take a look at the child..."
At this moment, her gaze darted among the crowd for a long moment before she finally took a deep breath and asked in a low voice, "...Everyone, did you just use...divine magic?"
Healing others is one of the greatest shortcomings of arcane magic, and only a few spells can break this shackle.
In this arcane-decayed Halrua, it was clear that no one could do this anymore.
However, before Emilia could answer, she clutched the corner of her clothes, trembling slightly, and asked in a lower voice: "...Everyone, is that...what...something...able? I heard that they are the only ones who claim to be able to perform divine magic...?"
"Will? What will?" Emiya, who was about to reveal her identity, was stunned for a moment.
"I just heard, I heard... I would never dare to pry into your secrets..." She was not grateful, but looked extremely frightened and swallowed with great difficulty.
"that is……"
"The secret of the Gods' Non-God Association..."
Take two days off
The reason is simple: I will defend my master's thesis tomorrow.
I really don't have time to update. To avoid the tragedy of not understanding the professor's questions and to avoid speaking incoherently due to nervousness during the defense, I have to intensively memorize the manuscript and adjust my state in the next two days!
Thank you for your understanding. See you the day after tomorrow.

Son of the Nineteen Elements (Part 3)
After walking around in front of Abel's unknown death god, Olma Edelhorst finally woke up to the sound of slightly bumpy wheels.
What came into view was my sister's face. The deep worry on it turned into surprise in an instant.
Her sister Sasan burst into tears almost instantly and rushed over to hug her tightly: "...That's great, that's great, you're still alive?"
Olma, who had almost woken up from a coma, didn't even react at first. He muttered, "...Alive? What do you mean by alive? I just remember that my stomach was getting hotter and hotter, and more and more painful for some reason..."
When this topic was mentioned, Sasan's face darkened and he said, "...Have you forgotten? You just gave birth to a child, but she almost burned you to death."
“…I, gave birth!?”
After several minutes, her brain finally started to work, and past memories came flooding back. The young mother almost jumped out of her seat. Her body became extremely light and finally made her face the reality. "I... fainted? Where is the child?"
There was no child in Sasan's arms, nor by her side.
Hearing this, her sister sighed, "I dare not leave that little one in the carriage—the team that rescued us...the Secret Fire Knights are looking after her."
At this point, Sasan seemed to have thought of something and quickly whispered a few words in her ear, reminding her: "Don't talk nonsense, their identities are a secret."
-----------------
A fire-breathing baby is a very disturbing threat to most creatures - especially if they can't just leave her alone.
They were still on their way and had not stopped to take care of the pregnant woman. They just went from being at lightning speed to moving slowly, with Mars driving for the sisters. Therefore, the newborn baby was riding on the horse with Emiya and her group, a few steps away from her mother.
To be precise, in Yin's arms.
——However, the little guy obviously didn't realize what he had done before, and smiled at her in Yin's arms very familiarly.
Of course, her tiny flame wasn't even enough to heat a Silver Flame, or even an incarnation of Silver Flame. Now, only Emiya and Halffont were unable to care for her.
Yin, with a look of disdain on his face, held her in his arms and kept muttering, "You'd better become a mage in the future, instead of relying on this elemental affinity to pretend to be a warlock with a humanoid fireball staff..."
"Don't start professional discrimination... Warlocks are also arcane spellcasters." Emilia said unhappily on another horse.
Mars said seriously, "And the so-called human-shaped fireball staff generally refers to those sorcerers who succumb to evil spirits."
Metatron shook his head, seriously interrupting the topic that seriously threatened personal attack, and said, "I think the most important thing to pay attention to right now is whether this little girl who can emit fire is a rare isolated case or a sign of a phenomenon that is gradually spreading... This problem may even have become a problem for the entire Halruaa. This may be one of the effects of Abel."
Haverfont sighed quietly.
Shadow Spirits were once apparently high elves, but their life in the Shadowfell had transformed them into Shadow Spirits. After recuperating on the Material Plane for a while, their nearly corpse-like appearance had recovered considerably.
If Abel has any special qualities, but they are not as obvious as those of the Shadowfell, then a few generations should be enough.
At this moment, Elise tried to quietly raise her hand several times, but finally said in a nearly inaudible voice: "...Actually, if you put it that way, there's something strange about me since I was a child..."
Immediately, this sentence attracted the attention of the entire team.
Elise wasn't very old, probably only a generation older than this child...it was natural that she had experienced some milder symptoms.
When it came to this topic, Elise's originally energetic temperament dissipated a little. She pointed to her forehead cautiously and said, "Touch it?"
Elaster, who was closest to her, hesitated for a moment, took off her gauntlet and touched it, then frowned slightly: "...Are you having a fever?"
"No," Elise answered simply, "I've always been warmer than my family, and I've never been sick."
At this point, the younger generation of the Goddess' Hand began to spill all the rumors about the Goddess' Hand like spilling beans.
His fists are extremely strong, and he is the best in hand-shaking competitions.
His body is unusually hard, and no matter how tough the training is, he won't even get a scratch.
Finally, she added wistfully, "—And oh! Besides my goddess hand, there's another one. She's beautiful, with a very thin waist and very large breasts... Under this premise, she weighs less than 80 kilograms! She works out and eats a lot, and has the strength to work, but she's just so light!"
Emiya and Mars slapped themselves on the head at the same time.
These improvements may not be that significant yet, and may even contain some rumors and hearsay. They cannot be compared to the baby who has already started to get angry, but they are already very obvious alienation.
Emiya struggled in despair, "...Is this phenomenon common?"
"If you're saying everyone has it, I don't think so." Eliser nodded, but then added, "But... after all, we've never heard of this kind of strange thing happening to our parents, so it's our little secret. We don't dare tell our elders."
