Gravis remained inside his newly dug hole for over a week. Even though he believed that this Heaven wouldn't be so stupid, his mind still went through a ton of hypothetical scenarios in which he was forced to have children.

Every time he thought about having to abandon his children, he gritted his teeth. What kind of cruel and bullshit rule was this? Forcing a human to have children against their consent was incredibly cruel. Gravis was absolutely sure that there was no such rule for humans.

If such a rule existed for humans, there wouldn't be nearly as many powerful cultivators. Gravis was sure that the vast majority of humans wouldn't choose to have 1,000 children to become more powerful. If someone decided to do that, everyone, including Gravis, would believe them to be selfish and cold-hearted.

His father and mother had given everything to Gravis and his siblings. His parents took the wishes of their children into account and supported them on their path. Someone that didn't want to risk their life would be able to live a long and painless life with the power of an Immortal Emperor. Someone who wanted to cultivate would get the best possible start.

Gravis felt the care that his parents felt for their children, and Gravis couldn't imagine himself being any different. If he ever had children, he would give them all his support. Yet, that would make it incredibly difficult for him to continue on his path to power. He couldn't imagine leaving his new family behind.

Additionally, Gravis couldn't just lie to his children. What if one of them asked him why he decided to have children in the first place? Was he supposed to tell them that they only exist because he wanted to become more powerful? Hearing something like that would hurt a child immensely. Gravis would never want to hurt his children like this.

On top of that, Gravis felt no love or physical attraction to any beast, including the Empress. So what if the Empress had a human-like upper body? She wasn't a human. She was a beast, and Gravis had no intention of bedding a beast, no matter how similar it was to a human.

What if his children asked him about his relationship with their mother? Was he just supposed to tell them that they only existed because the Empress allowed him to reach a new Realm while having as few children as possible?

These thoughts disgusted Gravis to no end. Gravis would only want children if he found his life partner. He wanted a family, not some randomly scattered people or beasts that shared his blood. He couldn't call something like that a family.

Everything about this situation frustrated and enraged Gravis to no end. He couldn't imagine having to decide between his goal in life and family. Additionally, he wouldn't know what he would do if-
