Once things on the Awakener’s side were on track, Malin finally had so free ti, so after informing the Sages, Jason, and Sostak No.3, Malin opened a gate and returned to the Semi-Plane.
The first one Malin saw was the Big-eared Fox, who now had five tails. When he saw her, she was running in the field with her child, completely unlike the Knight maiden she used to be. Matilda, of the Paladin noble lineage, had turned into a wild fox.
And upon seeing Malin standing on the dirt road, this fox picked up her child and quickly ran over.
Malin took the child, giving a warning look to the little fellow not to bite indiscriminately, then held Matilda’s hand and returned to the small cabin.
Along the way, Matilda asked many stories about Thainan, and Malin recounted everything in detail, including the story of the old dean.
Upon hearing about such a Wraith of True Lord level being able to enlighten both wraiths and humans, granting wisdom to the forr and growth to the latter, Matilda couldn’t help but feel a bit wistful.
"I also want to see it, but soone always needs to stay here." Matilda sighed in this way.
"No problem, we can have everyone co over and see it, it’s just that coordination is needed on Nova’s end. She and the child can play in Thainan for up to a week, but any longer and the nobility would start feeling unhappy." Malin understood this point—as now the two factions of nobles in Farole have long accepted their fate; with Malin, this great mountain, here, it’s sensible to stay obedient for their own lives, let alone now that the Queen has given birth to a Prince, even the most stubborn nobles are not dissatisfied with Malin anymore.
After all, Malin kept his promise, letting the child take Nova’s last na. With Malin’s legendary status and current power, having the child follow his surna would be sothing the united nobles couldn’t influence anyway, not to ntion quite a few nobles in Farole are wholeheartedly following Malin.
So, facing a trustworthy Legendary figure, the nobles had nothing to be dissatisfied about—those who did not need Malin to deal with it, their family could handle all problems themselves.
Malin proposed to take his wife and son out to play for a week, and the nobles wouldn’t be dissatisfied—no matter how large the entourage or show, it can’t compare to the authority of the Gaiates family collectively traveling.
But once Malin ntioned taking his wife and child out for half a year, these nobles truly beca dissatisfied—they could tolerate a week or half a month, but if it starts with three months to half a year, who knows what the Prince might be plotting.
Moreover, Malin estimated that Nova wouldn’t agree either—she didn’t want to leave the kingdom for too long.
In the end, though Malin and her marriage was consensual, everyone knew there was a trade involved. The Queen’s happiness, in the end, is also a very elusive thing; being with Malin was indeed Nova’s happiness, and the sa applied to Malin.
But Nova, after all, is a Queen, unlike Faye, who is just a princess with no inheritance rights and no kingdom responsibilities. Nova needs to manage a realm, which is her tragedy and also Malin’s sorrow—in the end, the love between Malin and Nova always has this external thing nad power standing between them.
Therefore, when Malin gathered his loved ones, saying he was preparing to take them to Thainan, it was not unexpected that Nova didn’t want to go, and she had a very valid reason—the duchy needed her and the child.
But eventually, after persuasion from her sisters, she decided to go for just a week—just as Malin had initially thought.
Malin was neither angry nor sad because of this, just felt it was ant to be, that it wasn’t power causing a rift between him and Nova, but rather power was just there, and neither Malin nor Nova could remove it from between them.
Saying this wouldn’t affect their relationship would be nonsense; Malin could clearly feel, ever since having a child, Nova’s focus had always been on the child and the country.
This is a mature woman—Nova knows her responsibilities and hasn’t forgotten them because of love, which is precisely why Malin appreciates her, and why Malin repeatedly gives in—a girl who has lost her father since childhood and only now her duchy started having a period of ascent, though with various issues, still, as a mother, she wants to do her best to create a stable and beautiful country for her children.
Malin could also see this in his other lovers.
Even Jessica, who needs to make the least effort, is striving; she’s always wanting to break through to Golden Blood, because her child is the least talented among the first batch of children.
Every mother is striving to ensure their child isn’t disadvantaged in life’s first cry because of their own failure.
......
Bringing the whole family back to New Hangzhou, Malin t Sage Yu and explained the identities of his lovers and children, seeing Sage Yu’s face turn pale: "Your Excellency, I need to adjust the isolation point..." "That’s not a problem."
Malin turned back to explain to everyone and, considering that Nova only had a week, decided to take Nova and the child to their old ho for a week.
Everyone understood, and Nova also wanted to see the Awakeners Malin ntioned.
So Malin returned to his hotown with Nuo, and Nova felt curious about everything that appeared before her, the completely different style of pre-Great Catastrophe architecture, and the Awakeners who could build houses by themselves. She also listened to the enlightennt class by the old dean, which didn’t seem to have much effect on her, but she could visibly see how those zombies’ ferocious eyes beca lively; after just one class, these zombies beca Awakeners.
