Chapter 160 - 160. The peaceful days

''Kendraaaaaa...'' small voice could be heard from outside.

Kendra as usual just stretched and got up. Since the mother gave birth these two little babies were literally enamored with their big sisters. 

The last two years have been peaceful. Well not completely.

That General Parri made a fuss in the capital and was fined 100 000 gold pieces for offending the King. After he woke up h realized that everything he gave his daughter is confiscated in the city.

He went to the capital and pleaded to King in front of the ministers. But when he recounted his side of the story King got angry.

''Damanble liar! Lord Cassian had the whole process on stone. He sent it to me so I couldn't misunderstand him. He didn't kill you, or your people. He just kicked you out in anger. You already knew that there was that law in his county and you still dare to act like you are the owner. Are you King. Or do you plan to rebel against me? Is your word higher than mine? If I say he can rule his Valley as he wishes and no one is to touch them two, it seems you people do not respect my royal order?'' 

She smashed the table in front of her and all the paperwork flew around. ''Show the recording stone so no one has the right to speak. And one more thing, if anyone else doubts royal order you can get the hell out of my palace and country. This is my last warning!''

She stood up, kicked remnants of the table and went out. The soldier by her side put a tiny stone on the floor and wonderous things happened in front of their eyes as the whole process could be seen and heard in full 3 D quality.

On end the soldier bowed in front of them and left as well, leaving the ministers speechless.

General Parri fainted again after witnessing the whole process one more time, realizing what a big blunder he and his family made. 

Paying the money almost drained his whole household of money. They were almost as poor as the paupers on the street. 

Even crying with his wife and daughter didn't move his heart. To go and beg for money? Are they in their right minds? How could he order his soldiers in the future if he lost his face like that?

Luckily he bought a lot of lands before so he got enough food for everyone. Only, now his wife and daughter won't be able to go shopping every day as they used to. So they felt ashamed and stayed at home in hiding, saying they got the great illness.

That didn't concern her. The two brats grew quite fast. With six months tehy walked, with eight they spoke and now tehy are two years and already could read. Kendra shook her head when she found out that both of them had powers. 

One had strong wind power and the other had lightning power. She sent Isaa into closed cultivation for 5 years. So she can guide them in their growth she stayed outside.

The Academy grew with every year. Children and grownups would come an now it was only enough that they had powers to enter. But will they be able to cultivate high enough was different from person to person?

Most of them choose fast cultivation with the end result of braking their possibility to grow larger.

She already sent out some people that couldn't grow their powers anymore as they harmed their base too much.

She could have saved them, but some of them were just too greedy for power that they didn't even listen to people's teachings.

The brats grew strong fast and she had to be strict to them so tehy do not make the same mistake. She would scold them, punish them and even kit their butt. But they still accepted it all and stuck by her side like glue.

Even Lord Cassian and Lady Xara couldn't control them. But one simple glance from Kendra would make them stop in their mischievousness. Then they would go to Kendra pout and look at her with big eyes. 

Learned all from Isaa. That child knew that she was weak for such a thing.

''Come in.'' She waved her hand and the window opened and the two boys jumped down from the clouds. Then tehy waved their little hands and clouds turned into a small dots near their eyes.

They had such perfect features so she just planned to be playful, but this dot gave them even cuter expressions so she just had to harden up her heart before punishing them.

''What did I say what you have to do in the early morning. Did you do it?'' She sat there with crossed legs and started at them strictly.

They tried to act cutely but suddenly small smile appeared don Kendras face. They learned about all kinds of smiles on her face, and this one gave the premonition of something and to be about to happen.

''For the next one month, you will stay in cultivation om and not move a bit out. If you dare to come out I will punish you even harsher.'' Kendra's smile became bigger as she almost innocently blinked at them.

Their back became cold and tehy shook slightly. This time even if tehy pout and beg it won't work. They knew that already. 

''Did you punish them again?'' On the dining table they sat together.

She looked at Lady Xara who was about the given one more child and smiled. ''Mom, they are too powerful. If I let them do as tehy wished tehy could hurt themselves. I'm worried. How is aunt? When these two brats go to closed cultivation they can get any food they want. But can't come out.''

''You plan to gather more materials? Or do you plan to visit Aunt?'' Lady Xara still had a couple of moths to deliver. And knowing Kendra she will not let her be alone at that moment.

''Both. First I will visit my aunt. Finally, she found the man for herself. He really suits her. She is about to get the first chidl in few days and I want to be at her side to make it easy for her.''

The King got married to Duke Larri's second son. And they have a truly nice marriage. He had no right on inheritance so it was easy for him to marry in. Kendra one day checked his mind without his notice and knew that he is quite preceptive, cold and tyrannic to those that deserve his fury. But at the same time he was compassionate, kind and helpful to those he felt are worthy.

These two fit together so well. Their first child is about to be born and she wanted to be there. She knew how to ease the pain to be noticeable but bearable. She let Lady Xara give birth easy and fast and healed her body straight afterward. 

Lady Xara literally stood up and walked around after birth. Giving everyone a feeling of surrealism. 

The King needs to rule teh country after all. If she misses to scold the ministers even for one day she feels stifled.

But she let them go on vacation. That is a new term. Every minister has to go on vacation for two weeks two times a year. She said after that if they still didn't have any strength to care about people they can just retire and go sit at home and warm next to fireplace.

So they had to accept it. Most of them had actually after that many fresh ideas. Doable ideas. Some just changed the old ideas for the goodness of people. so King's work was easier and she scolded less and had content smile often after they leave.

But there were still some things she couldn't reach. So step bu step she waited until tehy spoke of things and then let all ministers vote. If the majority of them accepted, she would consider some more and then if it is a good idea she would send official royal edict to all sides.

The country was peaceful at the moment, but lately, Kendra felt uneasiness stirring in her. Something is going on...she could feel it. So she needed to go there fast. Very fast.

''Samuel, Colin, come here.'' She motioned with her hand to come closer to her.

They stood in front of her and she pinched their cheeks and then kissed them. ''I need to leave this place. When I am gone please listen to my word and go to the cultivation room in the academy. When I come back your base needs to be calm again. I love both of you and don't wish that you get hurt, please understand.'' 

They hugged Kendra and covered her with small kisses as well. ''We promise. Can Fluffy and Lilly stay with us?''

''No. This time I need their help. They have no time to play with you boys. How come you still didn't choose your spirit companion?'' So many animals in space approached them but they didn't want them.

''We don't know why. It feels like there is something there waiting for us to come.'' That was the only way they could convey their feeling.

''There is time for that. Now go to cultivation room.'' She patted their butts and pushed them towards transportation plate.

Lately, they invented a new thing. Transportation portals. Use a small amount of the power stones. 

But not everyone can be transferred as they wished. She changed the codes of transportation stones and they could be used anywhere in the Valley. But from outside they cant enter as they wish. 

Of course, to the palace and out the palace is needed a rare stone that only a few had. And even then the soldiers stood always there to protect from any entry that was not in the plan.

She sent them to teh Academy after Lady Xara filled their space bags with various food and sweets. Lord Cassian was a strict father but he loved his children so he gave them as well some new inventions that some people sold outside.

When they left Kendra looked at her parents and then at a group of people that will travel this time with her. ''I will be back the latest in couple weeks. I found a new stream of power to collect in Mist Mountains.''

''Kendra what do you plan with all that stuff. I can feel sometimes some kind of uneasiness coming from you. Is there a reason?'' Lady Xara could somehow feel always teh mood changes on Kendra. Just her alone was able to do that. Not even Isaa or Lord Cassian was able to feel her mood swings.

''Mother. Father. I already told the Dragon kind and Demon Kind about my feelings. I feel something big will happen soon. So I need to be ready.'' Kendra hugged Xara in her arms gently.

'''We believe in you. And I will wait for you. Be careful, please.'' Lord Cassian could lately feel her change as well. 

Even tho Kendra always had calms smile when she spoke to people, but lately that feeling around her...

Kendra hugged them one more time and then stepped on a huge plateau with everyone else. In the blink of eyes, they disappeared in front of them leaving their hearts to be little restless and heavy.

''Will she be fine?'' Lord Cassian hugged his wife while looking at the sky. She smiled as she saw his worried face and kissed his lips lightly. ''Trust her, she will...''
