In the dark, under a strange-looking tree, a lady around twenty-something could be seen clenching her stomach and looking pitiful. She seemed to be in pain and was breathing heavily.

Above her in the sky, the color was very black and blurry. Rain started falling, and the thunder was clapping loudly and violently. The wind was very thick, slapping everything harshly.

The lady stood with the support of the tree, using one hand to prop herself against the tree and the other hand to hold her stomach tightly. She breathed out and continued moving weakly.

"Seems like I'm not going to escape this. What type of poison is this?" she wondered.

She unbuckled her belt to relieve some pain, then sat down somewhere and groaned while her hand wandered around on the wet ground until it made contact with something.

She picked it up and saw the object with the help of the lightning. The thing was round like a bead, and something joined them together.

She did not care about what it was and just swallowed it. She was going to die anyway, at least she ate something.

She could not figure out the taste of the thing, but it was surely not normal because as soon as it made contact with her throat, it felt very hot, as if she had drunk hot water that had not cooled.

"Sh*t! Even in death, my luck is still very bad," she muttered.

She was still lamenting when her aching stomach suddenly stopped aching. She did not have the chance to rejoice when her stomach started swelling up, getting bigger and bigger. It was as if it wanted to burst but, alas, it didn't. She could feel herself in labor.

She groaned until something escaped her body - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. She was relieved from both the poison pain and her swollen stomach pain.

When she looked at what she had given birth to, she was shocked.

Eggs.

She had given birth to eggs.

And there were six.

What happened to the eggs? How did their journey begin?

Beasts to Beauties: A Mother's Unearthly Gift

Wearing a full-face covered white-colored mask, a white-haired lady in long pants and a shirt stood in front of a huge company. She moved forward and entered the company. The ko..ko..ko sounds of her heels reverberated throughout the silent company, gaining the attention of those nearby. She continued walking forward in a familiar way, as if the company was her territory. She took several steps until she finally stopped in front of a table full of computers. She lightly knocked on the table and said, "Hi there." 


Hearing the melodious voice of a lady, the young man who seemed to be working under the computer table raised his head and saw the masked lady. He stared at the white-haired lady for a while before frowning. "This place is not a playground, nor is it a place for a lady. You can excuse yourself now," the young man replied coldly.
