Ariel and Gabriel Cooper, Ben and Mira's twin daughter and son have been born. To celebrate his children's birth, Ben threw a big party in the guild the day after their birth. He was planning to throw it in his house, but the others asked him to do in the guild because they were more used to doing it there.

Ben is playing around with everyone while Mira sat down on a comfortable couch with their babies. But the rowdy party would disturb the babies, so Ben put up a soundproof barrier around the babies. They were now sleeping calmly even though everyone was loud.

But the babies still wake up every once in a while because of hunger. Mira had to breastfeed them nearly every 2 hours. Bisca gave her a cloth to hide her breast baby that she used when Asuka still needed to be breastfed.

The party will go on until midnight, but Ben and Mira went home before it got dark. She needs to rest and the babies need many things to be taken care of. They need to take a bath, have their poop cleaned, etc.

The Coopers then fall asleep with the babies sleeping in the baby box that was big enough for the 2 of them. It was placed next to Ben and Mira's bed, so they'll be able to do something immediately when the babies need something.

That something came faster than they thought it would. It hadn't even been an hour since they fell asleep and Gabriel suddenly cried. His cry woke his sister up and she also cried, waking Ben and Mira up immediately.

Both of them are hungry, so Mira breastfed them together. Ben checked their diapers and the good news was that they are clean. After the babies are full, they fall asleep immediately, so Ben and Mira can sleep again.

However, an hour later, they cry again. Ariel is the one who cried first, followed by her brother. She pooed and it makes her feel uncomfortable, so she just woke up and cried. Ben cleaned her poo while Mira calmed Gabriel down because he was crying after his sister cried.

The hellish night continued with the twins waking up nearly every hour. Sometimes they just wake up for no reason and start crying. When one of them wakes up and cries, the other will also wake up and cry due to being surprise, so Ben and Mira have to calm them down.

Ben and Mira had a hard time sleeping. In the morning, they looked exhausted even though it was the 2nd night since the twins were born. The 1st night wasn't this intense, so neither of them were ready yet.

The other family members show up and they don't look so good either. The twins' cries were so loud that they can be heard from all over the house. Even the maids who sleep in the bedrooms located towards the back can hear it.

Everyone in the house wasn't able to sleep because of the babies' cries. The only ones who looked happy that morning were the babies. They are looking around curiously while Ben carried them in his arm.

"Where's nee-chan?" Elfman asked with dark skin under his eyes.

"Sleeping. We need more sleep, but someone has to take care of the babies, so we will take turns." Ben replied, exhausted.

"I didn't know babies could cry that much." Elfman said.

"Granny Bisca told us that the babies can cry every hour or even less then an hour. We thought it would be easy because we were used to not sleeping for days when doing jobs. But it's actually more tiring than we thought. The emotional fatigue is higher than the physical fatigue." Ben stated.

"It sure is. Lisanna and the others even need to sleep again after they eat some sandwiches." Elfman nodded.

"I will place a soundproof barrier to make you all sleep comfortably from now on. So please take care of the babies in the morning while Mira and I catch up on our sleep." Ben said.

"What if they're hungry?" Elfman asked.

"Mira will put her breast milk in baby bottles and we will put them in the refrigerator. You just need to warm them up using the warming enchantment that I'll place on the bottles. If you need help, ask our oldest maid, Maria. She has some children who have become adults, so she knows what to do." Ben said.

"Um, why don't you and nee-chan hire a babysitter? You have enough money to afford one." Elfman asked.

"We have thought about it, but we want to raise our children ourselves even if it's hard. Also, it's a good chance for you to learn how to raise children. You will have yours eventually, so this will be a good learning opportunity." Ben said.

"That will still be a few years from now." Elfman replied.

"No matter how long it is, you still need to learn. Or do you want Evergreen to raise your children by herself?" Ben asked him.

"W-why are you bringing Evergreen into this discussion?" A flustered Elfman asked.

The babies suddenly cry, so Ben calmed them down and checked to see what they needed. He didn't answer Elfman's question because the babies were his priority. The babies are hungry, so Ben took 2 bottles out of the refrigerator and warmed them up with his magic before giving them to his babies.

That day, Ben and Mira stay in their house to take care of their babies. They only take their babies out to their yard's garden once in a while. Both of them are still learning how to take care of their babies, so they don't dare to walk around the town yet in case their babies need something.

Porlyusica came by every day to check on the babies. Ben had installed teleportation doors that connect her house with his house. He asked her to come every day through the door to check on the babies and teach him and Mira about babysitting.

Ben and Mira's super tiring nights continued for a long time. They started getting used to after 2 weeks, but it still caused them to be tired. At least now, they can walk around the town with their babies after 2 weeks, so they can get some fresh air.

Neither of them had gone on a job since their babies were born. They've agreed not to take a job for 3 months for Ben's sake. As for Mira, she won't go on a job until the babies can eat baby food, which will be a long time.

Besides, Mira needed to train first before taking any job. She stopped training after her pregnancy entered it's last trimester, or 6 months had passed since then. She didn't stop completely as she still did light exercises, but her skills have become a little rusty because of that.

When the babies turned 1 month old, they start trying to flip. Ben, Mira and their family members were excited to find out who will be the first to flip over. Then a week later, they had a winner, it was Ariel who flipped first, and the next day, Gabriel also did it.

Ben was really happy with his babies' achievement that he threw a party inside the guild. He kept bragging about it to his guild mates and even the townsfolk. It caused people to call him the Idiot Doting Dad, but he didn't mind.

Ariel and Gabriel grow faster than normal babies. They can even sit at 3 months old and start crawling shortly after that, while other babies can only do it at around 5 or 6 months old. Ben also bragged about that and kept calling his babies geniuses.

But those genius babies are also the ones who 'killed' him. They start to talk at 3 months and 2 weeks old, and their first word is the same, it's Mama. That's not a big deal and Ben even tried to make them say Papa. However, they never do it, even after a week.

Instead, they say 'Nana' while pointing at Lisanna and 'Lala' while pointing at either Carla or Bella. He is their father and always stays with them, but they call their aunts names before him. He was 'dead' since that day which scared everyone.

It came to a end when the babies said Papa after 2 weeks. He bragged about that and annoyed everyone else. They prefer this over the 'dead' Ben though. His days seemed to be perfect after that until he suddenly received a job from the Council.
