The Dead Villainess Is Pregnant With The Male Lead's Child (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 52

At Killion’s question, the Grand Priest was taken aback. After all, there had been no newborns in the imperial family recently, and Killion himself was unmarried and thus had no children either.

The Grand Priest pressed his lips into a thin line and pondered briefly. But his deliberation did not last long. Seated before him was Duke Killion Drea—one of the most trustworthy figures among both the imperial family and the nobility.

Slowly, the Grand Priest’s mouth opened.

“We use a concoction made by combining the father’s blood, holy water, and specific herbs. The substance is injected into the child’s body using a needle.”

“If there’s no adverse reaction, the child is indeed the father’s biological offspring; if there is a reaction, then the child is not.”

A sigh tinged with despair escaped Killion’s parted lips. Goosebumps prickled his forearms.

‘If the child isn’t biologically related, there’s a fifty percent chance they’ll be disabled or even die! What kind of… monstrous injustice is this—to punish an innocent child!’
