A Single Mother' Chapter 372: Summer Has Finally Begun

Chapter 372: Sumr Has Finally Begun

The rain has finally ended, and that is what matters most. Thanks to the ritual’s results, Elaina decided to give the remaining half of the gemstones she mined before to the witch as a way of thanking her. The witch appreciated the paynt for a job well done. For her, these gemstones might be expensive when sold, but she doesn’t need money; she needs materials to continue her experints and job. Now that she has these, there is no need for her to look for more.

As for Elaina, the other half of the gemstones are handed straight to Julia. According to Julia, she will be converting a few of them into accessories and selling them to pawnshops and jewelry shops to fetch big money. Elaina has no interest in more money related to this so she gave the authority to Julia to keep the earnings from selling without sharing it with her. After all, for her, Elaina doesn’t need to have it.

But the most important thing for Elaina right now is that the sumr sun is back. Sure, things are now back to their regular heat and the weather will start to beco a sweltering ss soon but, so what? This is a regular weather of the season and this weather is also the sa weather the crops and items thrive. In short, she doesn’t need to care about it. It is ti to get back to work.

Since the previous work of tilling the field went straight to the garbage can after the whole deal of rain, Elaina had to do the work all over again. Of course, after the rain from before, the plants that she had planted before the end of the rain, the crops she planted that would thrive on a field that is filled with water or are too wet, have thrived enough and are now ready to harvest thanks to the fast growth that is contributed by the Harvest Goddess’s fertilizer and the seed she got from the catalog.

In short, even though the sumr plans she had before are ruined, the disaster that was supposed to ruin the whole sumr has been thwarted before it beca a serious problem are now over and now they can start again on those plans that were supposed to be done in the beginning of sumr season.

She grabbed her blessed hoe, grinned as she observed the field that was slowly drying from the heat of the sun, and nodded.

"Ti to pump so work!"

Unlike Darcero Kingdom’s celebration of the rain finally stopping, the rfolk Kingdom is welcod with the big news of trouble that they thought would not co but actually happened in just a single day.

A day passed by and the servants of these Elders who were supposed to fetch them to attend various etings entered their eting room and soon were welcod with the sorry sight of the elders who had all collapsed and are all collapsed while their blood mixed into the water. Seeing the state they are in, the servants quickly attended to them and tried to help them from their current predicant and sent them to their personal doctors.

With them sent to their doctors, the news is finally leaked out by so talkative servants, and the news related to the Elders suffering in big damage spread in the public. As a result, the royal palace ended up being forced to keep the information leaked out and ban any sort of words related to the situation of the elders but as they say, so news is just not possible to contain whatever chances one tries just to conceal the information.

Due to the Royal Palace trying to cover and hide the information so much, the populace ended up becoming more and more curious as to what was the main reason for the news being hidden and why the Royal Palace was so secretive about it. As a result, the ones who caught all the brunt of curiosity and question by the populace are none other than the remaining families of the Great Families.

And this is exactly what is currently happening in the First Great Family. The family is currently having a family eting at the mont and is trying to solve the current situation.

"What are we going to do about this? I didn’t even expect things would suddenly go this badly!" the son of the Elder who was supposed to be the one who will inherit the title and power that the Elder holds is now panicking.

"What can "WE" even do? Father had all of his mana veins ruptured! Not only that but as a result of him losing a lot of power, doesn’t that an Father also lost the power that he was supposed to pass to his descendants so that our family remains one of the greatest?!" the daughter of the Elder is also not able to properly believe the situation they are in.

The wife of the Elder just sighed seeing the bickering of the two.

"The two of you should shut up and stop this bickering. As much as you two fight and fight, nothing will change and our situation will not get better either. What we needed to do was to find a way to cure your father. He is the Elder and the greatest pillar of the kingdom. Losing him will make this kingdom collapse entirely. It would have been fine if any of the two of you had the power that he once possessed, but no. We needed to find a solution to his ruptured mana veins and make sure that this news was never spread further from this place. And make sure to investigate what happened and who did this matter. Without his power, our family might get trampled and we will not allow that."

...

One thing is certain now, with the incident revolving around the Elders, the whole kingdom is now in a bad situation and is now hanging in thin rope. But thanks to this, the Royal Palace also regained the authority that was once hogged all by the people of the Elder council. With the council now on the brink of destruction, they decided to take advantage and take the chance to drag this council and the great families down and raise the Royal Family’s status.

In short, it is a chaotic situation that the rfolk kingdom was in and although it won’t be escalating into a civil war, it is close enough to disrupt the peace that the kingdom had. One thing is for sure, the kingdom will never be the sa again.

Thanks to the sun returning in Darcero Kingdom, the beach opening that was supposed to happen during the beginning of sumr is held the next day after the sky has cleared. It even beca a big headline in the newspapers. And this is a joyous occasion for everyone who suffered the rainy days. Because the true sumr experience has finally occurred.

Elaina woke up early the next day, excited for the new day and the new work. Even the heat of the surroundings has started to ramp up as well. It might not be the best weather for relaxation but it is calming to know that it is a regular weather now instead of the abnormal weather.

And aside from Elaina, her two babies also woke up with her and realized Elaina had already got up from the bed.

"Mom, are you going to work?" Arthur asked.

"Yes, dear. With the rain gone, we can now properly enjoy sumr without feeling cold every day."

Adelaide sighed in relief. "Haha, finally. Cold weather is sothing I recently hated and I didn’t expect that I would finally be happy again now that the season’s abnormality is solved. Does that an we can now go and swim in the ocean soon?"

Elaina nodded. "Of course. Once work is done and all that is left is to let them grow, everyone will have a chance to swim into the sea this ti around."

Elaina is also happy to know about this. Since last sumr was a bit controlled and sothing that she couldn’t enjoy much due to her being pregnant at that ti, she had less enjoynt than the girls before. But since she is no longer pregnant and she can bring her babies into the sea this ti around, Elaina can finally show off and make her swimsuit that she didn’t get to wear last sumr possible to be used this ti around.

Walking to the crib, Raye continued to sleep soundly and Elaina looked happy as she observed the little baby. He might not be her blood-related baby, but Elaina could feel her maternal instincts kicking in. She vowed to herself that whatever the mother failed to give to the baby, Elaina would be able to provide.

"Alright, everyone. Now you two go and wash up in the bathroom and get ready. Do your daily morning exercise with the others alright?"

"Yes Mom," the two simultaneously answered.

Now that sumr is in the air, Elaina gears up. It is ti to begin the sumr work with the Feys.
