CHAPTER 515: CHAPTER 515 - THE HECTIC SHORT BREAK BETWEEN TERMS

The third term is bound to be busy as most of my mystique husbands are about to give birth to our children. It is almost a year now since the trio, Makisig, Vaelion and Reiss got pregnant so it is about time for the children to be born. They are set to give birth to our children one after another with barely a week in between sometime towards the end of the third term on my second year in the academe.

I already told the academe grandmaster that I may need to leave the academe in certain times in the next semester for personal emergencies. Since I have technically completed all the classroom classes and are only waiting to complete the third and last immersion on my last term here in the academe, I was given permission quite easily. I decided to only take short term courses throughout the semester so I will have tons of free time to prepare for the important life events that I will be having.

It was good that I have already sent the trio to the separate realm dedicated to my mystique husbands and immediate family. It will ensure that they will be safe before, during and after the children are born. It will be easier for my parents and Laerad to help them out too while I am still on my way there.

I have been spending my weekends with all my husbands both in this realm and other realms for the past second academe term but I told them that I am not able to use the whole week of the term break with them since I need to fulfill a long overdue promise with someone and other important errands. In short, it is time to go to Ceryneia to catch some fish and aquatic plants to form the new world tree realm’s version of it.

Early morning on the first day of the term break, after a short preparation, I quickly teleported to my personal room in Kama which is a safe space to reappear. I decided against doing this on my home inside the Noir Headquarters because it would be very hard to leave once the elders get a hold of me and their matchmaking hobbies.

Since I rarely visit here, I made sure to go to the kitchen to check on my people’s food storage to see if they have some food left. I casted a sleeping spell towards the whole place so that nobody will wake up suddenly and see me inside the kitchen cooking a feast.

I hurriedly prepared all the food that I can manage to make in a short three hours that I allotted for this visit and I did not forget to leave a bag of coins on the bedside table of proprietor’s room (also known as my lover) for an additional budget for whatever the place needs. I am still a sponsor no matter what happens so I have to stick to my word about the financial support. I left as stealthily as I arrived and went straight to Marahuyo afterwards.

As I appeared in the central plaza inside Marahuyo, I noticed that there were already a lot of people who were awake and have started their day. Given that it is already past eight in the morning, all these people must have finished eating breakfast and are now working on their daily tasks.

It did not take long for a few elders to welcome me while the rest of the elders asked all the citizens in the sanctuary to group up and meet at the plaza to greet me. They never fail to detect my arrival immediately and prepare this unneeded greeting.

As I looked around, I noticed that there was once again a few new faces added to the current population. I can now identify with just one look as to which race a mystique came from given that I have met most of the races already and I even have husbands from different races. It seems that news about the existence of this sanctuary for mystiques have already spread amongst those living in seclusion and independent settlements as well.

I have already confirmed with Laerad that the communities for the beast men have already been completed by him based on all the information I have sent over a few months back. The information I gathered through constant meetings and consultations have finally gained a result and is deemed livable.

I have three things I need to do here in Marahuyo which is why I made a special visit even if I do not have my husbands in here anymore. The first one is to check on the population, if it have greatly increased. The second one is to move the ones living here for a while to the new world tree realm to ensure that there is enough living space in the sanctuary. The last one was to accompany Marius to Ceryneia as promised, to fetch his trusted people and of course, the harvesting I need to do as well.

I had to spend a day in Marahuyo to check on which of the citizens will be included in the first batch of mystiques that will be moving to the new world tree realm. The reason why I am only moving those from the sanctuary to Marahuyo is mostly due to a test of character and worthiness that they have to pass first.

I am not as kind as Laerad when he first created the world tree realm. Though this is my first sanctuary and technically, my first try in building the world tree realm, I want it to be systematic with these things. I wanted the would-be citizens of the new world tree realm to be completely filtered. The stay in Marahuyo was their test in order to be deemed worthy of the new home I am offering them.

Living in Marahuyo was quite peaceful based on the stories I have heard from the mystiques that chose to leave their homes to go here. In this place, every single necessity can easily be achieved as long as you work hard for it.

The first test that most of the people must not have noticed is actually living together with the other races. They must be thinking that the circumstances just called for it and they can’t be choosy to the place where they will be living.

I don’t tolerate discrimination and in fighting whether it is within my family or even the new realm so they should get used to working with others, not just their own kind. You will see the real attitude of people if they have started to become complacent after living together for quite some time.

Another test that they may not have noticed is that of patience. I never told them when they will be moved to the new world tree realm. The pressure with one’s patience further escalated as they saw the elves, heralds and giants being moved one by one with my help.

I purposely gave them a vague response that they will have their turn to move out in the near future. With this test, I will be able to filter out those that are demanding and act like I owe them something. With this wait, those that are impatient, those started to blabber nonsense and those that started to rally others to complain were kicked out of the sanctuary to fend for themselves.

The barrier I placed around Marahuyo is not only for protection and anti-detection but it also has some kind of a gauge for a beings character and tendencies. Only those that are tagged as good, moral or just can enter and stay in this place. If you start having evil thoughts and most especially if you act on them, you are booted out of the barrier immediately even before you succeeded. I am proud to say that the crime rate in this place is zero.

After the dozens of meetings and consultation that I had to attend with the elders and representatives of each of the tribes, the final list for the first batch of beast men included in the move have been decided. We prioritized those that have been staying in the sanctuary the longest and those with leadership skills to guide the others tribe members. We also ensured to include the able bodied men and women just in case there are further construction or improvements that they want to do in their respective communities.

Upon hearing the basis of the list, some people voluntarily opted out of the first batch since they do not want to leave their family members behind. Some people went here first to check out the sanctuary and after confirming that life here was better as promised, that was the only time they went back to their previous homes to bring their other family members here. In this sense, their stay in the sanctuary varied with each other so some are already eligible to move while some still had to wait.
