Chapter 400: Motivation
Mineah was still very much active in her duties to the kingdom despite being nine months into pregnancy. Currently, she was in the southern part of Valcrez doing some charity work as scheduled, and thankfully, there was nothing amiss at the moment.
"Time sure flies quickly. After that relaxing summer, the whole kingdom became busy again," Zaila mumbled beside Dani. "Fall’s already here, and now winter is coming once again in the blink of an eye."
Mineah simply let out a sigh from the sidelines. She felt bad that she had to drag her shadow maidens with her most of the time, especially now that she was also nearing her due date for her baby. Her husband was being overprotective as well, even making it a point to check on her through their bond every once in a while.
[The meeting is finished,] Nikolai suddenly told her through their bond. [How about I go there to accompany you right now?]
[I’m almost done here too, Lai, so I will follow you there shortly,] Mineah replied back. [You’re in an important event, so you should stay there and take this opportunity to properly talk about possible deals with nearby kingdoms. Also, see if we can give some support and assistance to some kingdoms that might need it.]
[But how are you feeling?] he insisted. [I can’t just be at ease thinking you might give birth at any moment now.]
[I’m really almost done here and will be there as early as tomorrow, Lai,] Mineah chuckled in response. [Should I remind you that we’ll be using Dani’s teleportation spell? I’ll be there in a snap without you even realizing it.]
Letting out a sigh, Nikolai finally as their conversation died out. From there, Mineah then turned to her friends who were currently busy giving away some relief goods to their people.
"Dani, hurry up," Zaila reminded. "Let’s finish this quickly."
