Zu Wan couldn't believe that three months had already passed in this world. When he was with Eva in the other dimension, it felt like only three days had passed.
'I came back after three days of being with Eva. But three months in this world is the equivalent of those three days.'
Zu Wan was still trying to absorb things when Tristan spoke up once again.
"Father-in-law, teach me. How can I seal the power of our twins?" Tristan's voice brought Zu Wan back to the present.
Zu Wan nodded his head before glancing at Zhen-Zhen. He held her hand and softly asked her, "Can you still bear it, Zhen?"
Zhen-Zhen bobbed her head. Now that her father was back, she could bear anything. She had endured the most painful wound in her heart when her father disappeared for three months. Compared to that, she could endure this kind of pain.
"Just relax, Zhen-Zhen." Then Zu Wan turned to Tristan, giving him instructions. "Put your hands over her stomach. And close your eyes. You need to focus and concentrate as if you are meditating."
Tristan moved closer to Zu Wan and Zhen-Zhen. He followed his instructions. To his surprise, Zu Wan also put his hands over Tristan's.
Zhen-Zhen could not contain her happiness seeing her father standing next to her and Tristan. She remained silent, enduring the pain in her stomach. But her tears fell one after another. They were tears of joy for reuniting with Zu Wan again.
But her greatest joy was about to come as the twins would finally be born today. Little Cassie and Little Tian were the source of her strength during those dark moments. She persevered and tried to move on because of the Twins.
"Can you feel it? Their core power… you have to search for their core power." Zu Wan continued giving instructions to Tristan.
"How would I know their core power, Father?"
"You will see a small fireball. Can you see them now? Try to concentrate more… Find them."
One minute had passed. Everyone in the room became quiet, allowing Tristan to concentrate on what he was doing.
It did not take long when Tristan finally saw something. He talked with his elated voice. "Father! Father! I can now see them! Two fireballs, one red and one blue!"
Zu Wan smiled and rejoiced upon hearing that. "One red and one blue… this means the twins inherit the power of the blue fire dragon and the red fire dragon! Haha! My grandchildren are powerful!"
Miho, who was watching everything on the sideline, felt excited at the mention of the blue fire dragon and red fire dragon.
'Are they coming out now? I hope Little Masters can summon them once they grow up.' Miho thought to herself.
"This is what you have to do. Listen to me carefully. Use your own power and engulf the two fireballs using your black fire. Can you manage to do that?" Zu Wan asked Tristan worriedly.
"I will try, Father." Tristan brought his attention back to the twins and their core powers. He started to concentrate, unleashing his power.
A black fire surrounded the two small fireballs.
"How is it?" Zu Wan asked Tristan as he couldn't see what was happening with the core power of red and blue fire dragons.
"It's done, Father! What should I do next?" Tristan was waiting for his additional direction.
"Suppress them using your black fire! Then create four barriers to make sure their powers will not overflow! Then we are all good to go. The doctor and the nurses can now come in and deliver the twins, assisting Zhen-Zhen in giving birth."
Following every instruction of Zu Wan, Tristan was finally able to seal the twins' core power temporarily. It would only last for several hours as Tristan was not yet familiar with his power control.
"Now, let's go out and call the doctor and nurses!" Zu Wan said, before leaving the operating room.
Tristan watched Zhen-Zhen with a gentle smile. He caressed her face and planted a kiss on her forehead.
"You've done a great job, Hubby. I'm so proud of you." Zhen-Zhen commended Tristan for using his power in sealing the Twins' core powers. She was looking at him with pride.
Tristan had improved so much. For the past three months, he had been honing his skills and power. While trying to move on from Zu Wan's disappearance, Tristan spent his time training himself to control his power. He wanted to get stronger to protect Zhen-Zhen and his family.
No one knew if the guardian warriors would come back to attack and target Zhen-Zhen once again. Liam was still in a coma so he was the only one who could protect Zhen-Zhen against those guardian warriors.
"You can do it, Wifey. Your father and I will be waiting for you and our twins." Tristan caressed her face and kissed her cheek one last time before leaving the operating room.
Soon, the doctor and nurses came inside the operating room. They were now ready to facilitate the delivery of the babies. Zu Wan and Tristan waited outside. Because of excitement, Tristan had forgotten to inform his parents and Grandpa Lu that Zhen-Zhen was now about to give birth.
The two men had mixed emotions right now as they could hear Zhen-Zhen's cry inside. She was now giving birth through a normal delivery.
Tristan looked very tense as he walked back and forth in front of the operating door. Zu Wan smiled inwardly as he could relate to him. He had already experienced this feeling before when Eva gave birth to Zhen-Zhen.
The men were both anxious, nervous, and excited as Zhen-Zhen was currently in labor, whimpering in pain.
Zu Wan held Tristan's shoulder thus stopping him from pacing back and forth.
"Tristan, relax! Everything will be fine. You will soon see your wife, carrying your twins."
Tristan stared at Zu Wan, feeling grateful. Unknowingly, his tears began to fall from the corners of his eyes. He suddenly pounced on Zu Wan, hugging him tightly.
"Father… T-Thank you… Thank you for coming back… Thank you for staying alive! I-I missed you. I feel grateful to you. I owe you my life."
Zu Wan didn't say a word. He just let Tristan hug him, patting his back. He didn't regret saving Tristan. He even met Eva because of what he did. And this time he knew Eva was the one who saved him. She saved him once again.
