Through the Shadow Canyon, the Blood Cavalry marched north.
After another two days, the Sentinel actually brought a "blocker" to Ke Lin again.
However, Ke Lin did not refuse the other party's invitation this time.
Because, the invitation letter is clearly the handwriting of Queen Aisha.
"Knight Logue, speed up, we will rest at Red Maple Manor tonight."
"Yes, my lord!"
Following this order, the Blood Cavalry Army began to speed up and finally arrived at the Red Maple Manor in the southern suburb of Silvermoon City before sunset.
The afterglow of the golden sunset reflected on the flaming maple leaves, making the picture in front of me unreal.
Colin had a deep impression on this manor, because just a year ago, he had escorted Vera to pass by here.
Moreover, the two still left a good memory here.
Unexpectedly, when Colin passed Red Maple Manor for the second time, he found that Queen Aisha was waiting for him here.
The beautiful scenery of sunset and maple leaves is not as attractive as the beautiful shadow at the gate of the manor to Ke Lin.
Long time no see, Queen Aisha's belly is already high, but her face is still as delicate as before.
As a female knight, Aisha will certainly not have the pregnancy reaction of ordinary pregnant women. She will not feel sick, will not vomit, and her figure will not be bloated and deformed. The half-elf queen is a little more friendly and gentle.
"Why don't you stay in Silvermoon City? Running around with such a big belly!"
Colin got off his horse, took a few steps forward, and said in a slightly reproachful tone.
Queen Aisha smiled sweetly, and said softly: "I just come here to relax, the Red Maple Forest in this season is a rare beauty in the world."
Colin also didn't want to criticize the woman who was about to give birth to an heir too much, so he walked into the manor side by side with her, and said at the same time:
"Then I'll accompany you to see the maple leaves?"
"Okay, it just so happens that the dinner party will take a while."
Hearing this, the crowd around immediately dispersed quietly, giving enough privacy to the two reunited after a long absence.
Princess Judy, who felt left out, wanted to follow, but was stopped by Prince Harrison.
On this trip, Colin originally planned to take Prince Harrison with him, but he didn't expect Princess Judy to follow her. Colin was worried that what happened to Joyce would have a psychological impact on the little girl, so he brought him with him. She, let her come out to relax.
It's just that Judy's lively and heartless appearance along the way made Colin feel that he might be worrying for nothing.
"Why are you stopping me?" Judy glared, baring her teeth and claws at her brother.
"Teacher and Queen Aisha have something important to discuss, what are you doing with me?"
"Important matters? How can we talk about important matters as soon as we meet? And you don't even say hello to us, it's really rude!" Judy yelled unconvinced.
"Maybe Queen Elsa didn't see both of us." Prince Harrison explained, "What's more, we came to the half-elf kingdom as teachers and students this time, and Her Majesty the Queen didn't need to use the etiquette of receiving the royal family to greet us." us."
"Anyway, it's too much!" Judy still looked angry, and then she looked at the backs of Colin and Elsa, and seemed to realize something, and asked in a mysterious whisper, "Oh, brother, are you What do you know? The teacher and Queen Elsa seem to have an unusual relationship?"
"Where... no way! Don't make random guesses." Harrison shook his head with some guilt.
In fact, he himself is not sure. When Queen Midella brought him to crown the half-elf queen, he did guess that the child in Aisha's womb might belong to Colin, but after what happened to Joyce, Harrison Already having a heart of reverence for Colin, he naturally dared not speculate on his teacher's secrets.
Only Judy rolled her big eyes, as if thinking of something.
…
"Pre-production period is when?"
"There are still about half a month."
Queen Aisha was wearing a loose white silk dress, with one hand on her swollen belly and the other holding Colin's outstretched arm, walking in the fiery red maple forest.
Her gorgeous and charming face shone with happiness, her green eyes were full of tenderness, and she was always watching her lover.
"Have you made the corresponding preparations?"
"Don't worry, it's all done."
Colin's worries are actually a bit superfluous. As the queen of the half-elf, how can it be possible that no one will help her make complete preparations for such a major event as Elsa's birth
Moreover, as a blood descendant, Aisha's life would not be in danger even if her heart was pierced, so childbirth was nothing to worry about for her.
Even if there is a dystocia, Colin is sure to direct the doctor to successfully perform a caesarean section for Aisha in this era of backward medical conditions.
Of course, Colin definitely doesn't want Aisha to suffer like this, it's best if everything goes well.
"Did you meet someone from the Rutte family when you came?"
"Yes." Colin nodded, "They also looked for you, right?"
Queen Aisha nodded and said, "That's right. However, I remember you said that now is not the best time for the military to intervene in Clover City, so I rejected them."
"You did the right thing."
"However, the current situation of the Rutte family is indeed very bad. If there is no external support, I guess they will be driven out of Clover City in a short time." Queen Aisha frowned slightly, "It seems that I We will continue to look for the next city master."
Colin squeezed Queen Elsa's soft little hand, and comforted him: "Don't worry, I already have a plan."
"oh?"
Seeing Aisha's curious expression, Colin shook his head and deliberately kept it a secret: "You will understand after a while."
Aisha nodded and didn't ask any more questions. She was still very confident about Colin.
The two chatted while walking, passing by a surrounding well made of white glazed rocks, and a sapling was planted in the well.
Colin asked curiously, "Why is this maple tree fenced?"
"I planted it with my own hands two days ago." Aisha said softly, her face full of maternal brilliance, "To commemorate our soon-to-be-born child."
Ke Lin looked at the young sapling, his heart trembled, and an inexplicable feeling came to his heart, and he asked, "Can I touch it?"
Aisha knew that Colin was referring to the child in her womb, and nodded with a smile: "Of course."
Colin looked at Elsa's pretty face, and slowly hugged her into his arms from behind.
Aisha leaned against Colin's body, held his hands, and pressed gently on her abdomen.
Through the soft and smooth silk fabric, Colin felt Aisha's tender and delicate skin, and the weak but firm heartbeat clearly fell into his palm.
Such a pulsation made Colin lose his mind for a moment.
This little life is connected with his blood and is the continuation of his life, proving that he exists in this world, real and not false.
For a long time, Ke Lin, as a "visitor from another world", has always had a vague estrangement from this world, as if he felt that he did not really belong here.
Until then, listening to the heartbeat of the little life in Aisha's belly, Colin finally found a sense of belonging.
For a moment, his heart was peaceful and full of strength.
Suddenly, Ke Lin thought of a question—as the heir of himself and the blood, will this child also be a blood
Thinking of this, Colin was inexplicably looking forward to it.
