Inheriting a Lost Bloodline, My First Task is to have heirs?!

Chapter 245: Chapter 245 - Updates from the Sklavryet region

As I suddenly appeared standing in one corner of the conference room, the old gentlemen all went into a defensive position as if they were under an attack. It was quite impressive how fast they could still move even if most of them are in their late 60s or early 70s. Once an assassin, always an assassin it seems.

When they have finally confirmed that it was me, someone they know, they quickly hid all of their weapons in different parts of their bodies and clothing. They also apologized for acting so aggressively towards me and treating me as an enemy. I dismissed everything like it was a joke and praised them instead for not losing their touch even at their advanced age.

When I looked around the room, I was surprised to actually see, the ”Little Prince”, the current leader who rarely attends these meetings. He was also staring right at me with widened eyes. He was the only one that didn’t act defensively as if he immediately knew who I was which was really weird,I must say.

I gave updates to the elders about things that have happened on my end including my first husband giving birth and my plans to attend the 8th prince’s birthday banquet in a few days. From the time we had an agreement to be co-owners of the commercial district I decided to build, the elders made it a point to give me regular reports about the progress of the construction of the stores and the inn, hiring of employees, approval of business permits and how much money has been used so far.

After the brief exchange of updates, I opted to still stay and join the meeting but my intention is to only listen to the topics they have for today. I eventually couldn’t help but speak a couple of times since they asked for my opinions or suggestions on certain missions, improvements in facilities and research projects.

Throughout the meeting, even if I was just sitting and keeping things to myself, I felt an intense stare coming from a certain someone that never attends these meetings till recently. I couldn’t help but scoff on how he is an assassin if he can’t hide his emotions that well. He’s really that guy who called himself ”Youssef” back in academe.

After the meeting, I dropped by my little territory inside the organization’s ground which is currently assigned as the personal chambers of Richard and his older brother, who I just found out was named Chandler. This is the first time I will be meeting both of them with me showing my real face that is.

As I approached the villa, I immediately heard a flurry of footsteps approaching the main door. Next thing I knew, the door flew open as the walls seemed to have vibrated from the force. What is with these men and them wanting to break the doors of my properties?

I went inside the door passing through the two guys who seemed to be panting from running in a hurry to welcome me. I smiled at both of them as I looked around the villa that I asked to be built according to my preferences.

There was a main house with a quaint patio, a separate building for cooking and food storage, a training ground, a small infirmary, weapons storage, a simple garden and then a bigger building that looked like a barracks but was built like a posh apartment. Overall, my wishes were fulfilled so I am quite happy.

I sat on one of the chairs placed at my villa’s patio while the other two stayed standing a few steps away from the small dining table in front of me. I looked at them with raised eyebrows while the two were looking at me eagerly and excitedly. They look like cute puppies. How cute!

It was the first time Richard will be seeing me since I bought him out from slavery since he was blindfolded and a little borderline crazy at that time. As for Chandler, I don’t know if he remembers my face since he was drugged and dazed the first time I met him at the auction house.

I asked about how they were doing in terms of their health, accommodations as well as their physical training. They eagerly explained how they were spending most of their waking hours at the training camp and that they were doing well with everything else. I gave them an update that the elders have given me regarding the possible locations of their brethren and particularly, their eldest brother (there should be four of them but the eldest died when he was young). I ended our short meeting with a promise to bring them back as soon as possible.

They nodded their heads and told me that they understood that taking back their people takes time. They promised to wait patiently for any good news, hopefully. Lastly, they excitedly told me their assigned codenames. Richard was given the name ”Nightshade” while Chandler was given ”Hemlock”. I think the last brother will get a ”poisonous” code name too.

I only stayed for about an hour with them making sure that they got everything that they needed within my territory and noted for any requests that they may have. I gave them a heads up that once they are done with training, they may be assigned to the commercial district that I own which was currently being built outside the HQ. They immediately gave their commitment to working for me for whatever task I have for them. I bid them a simple goodbye and went straight to Marahuyo from there.

I reappeared right inside my villa’s master’s bedroom in the northern most part of Marahuyo. I stretched my body and dropped face first on my soft bed. I really love preservation magic since it keeps things clean and dust-free no matter how long you left a property uninhabited.

After only a couple of minutes, I already heard a series of knocks from the front door of my villa. Ugh! Can’t they just pretend that they did not notice me even for a few hours so I can rest?

I lazily got out of bed then walked leisurely down the stairs instead of teleporting. After about 5 minutes, I slowly opened the door and as expected the three pregnant guys were outside. I ushered them in and asked them to take a seat in the living room. Once they’re seated comfortably, I waved my hands and gave them some warm milk tea and a few fruit tarts that these men loved since the start of their pregnancies.

The eyes of the three guys, Makisig, Vaelion and Reiss widened as they saw the food that I prepared for them. They ate happily and drank the warm milk tea with contented faces.

I honestly told them that I won’t be staying for too long and only came to check the food inventory in the territory, construction updates and of course, the three of them. I gave each of them a kiss on the lips and also refilled the orb pendants with my mana and life essences so that the children in their bellies can be fed well without their bodies suffering too much.

They looked sad after I told them that I won’t be staying for too long and simply asked for a few minutes of an embrace each which I dotingly gave them. The four of us teleported straight in the middle of the central plaza which surprised everybody. I walked leisurely towards the community kitchen area, making sure that the three pregnant guys are following behind at their own pace.

I checked on the food inventory and refilled food ingredients that are in low quantities. While I am doing my thing, the elders appeared and gave me updates in terms of security and population. They gave me a heads up that while I am away, they encountered a few male beastmen that were injured and were on the run from female pursuers and their guards. They said that those male beastmen were very thankful and admitted that they were on their heat periods and if they were not rescued at that time, they would have been tainted by those evil women.

I kept my face nonchalant but inside my head, I was celebrating! The reason why I placed Marahuyo in between the areas of Gollmortha (territory of the giants) and Lyartaim (territory of the beastmen) was to increase the chances of taking in beastmen who were desperately looking for a safe place to live in. I am not saying I will make all these guys my husbands, but it is an easier way to get them here willingly than to visit Lyartaim and snatch from their population.

I gave instructions to let the guys build their own homes once they’re nursed back to health if they want to stay or escort them back to Lyartaim if they prefer to go back. I told them not to force these guys but still try to convince them to stay by showing off what the territory has to offer. Them being able to come inside my barrier successfully means that they are good people anyways so were not losing anything.

I only plan to stay in Marahuyo till the middle of the next morning. The three pregnant guys begged for me to share the same bed with them. They snuggled next to me and I have never been more squeezed while sleeping in my entire life than tonight but I am not complaining at all. They all slept naked but I am strong-willed and simply hugged them and slept. I am so proud of myself!
