The Romantic Trials Of A Transmigrated Empress

Chapter 364: The dangers of mid wives.

Before Sigrid could respond, her arm was grabbed by her mother whose nostrils were flared from all the fast angry breathing she was doing. She was like a dragon whose hoard of gold had been stolen.

"Bring her back to life." She hissed.

"What?" Sigrid found herself lost at the request. How was she supposed to bring a dead woman back to life?

Lady Iryne’s next words made much more sense.

"Bring her back to life so that I can kill her myself for daring to take my grandson’s soul." She kicked the immobile feet of the dead phantom mage again. "This wicked witch bitch!!! Where is my sword? Someone should hand me a sword right now. Even if she is already dead, I will hack her body to pieces and have them spread out in the sea."

"Burning the body is better." Sigrid gently pushed her mother to the side because all that kicking was splattering blood on everyone unnecessarily.

Mrs. Cravelle’s suddenly found her voice, "Can I get some help here. The baby is slipping out..."

All the ladies finally turned to her and they noticed the baby effortlessly sliding out of her. Lady Iryne quickly caught it before it hit the bed. "Its a girl."

"I won’t say anything to anyone, I swear. If I break my oath, you can kill me." She declared.

Sigrid’s staff of loyalty appeared in her hands. "I trust oaths that lead to instant death more than empty words." She jutted her chin towards the dead phantom mage. "Once upon a time she made a promise and gave her word. Breaking it had one consequence.
