203 A Day Of Res (1/2)
King Fimot did not waste time. He quickly sent for his best engineers to head to Alastine to help them with their magi technology development. After signing the binding contract, it was now time for Alicia to leave.
”King Fimot here's hoping that Alastine and Grongandon will have peaceful relations from now on and into the future. At a later date, we will discuss things like trade between the two kingdoms.” Alicia gave a slight bow as she said this.
”I look forward to it.” King Fimot said with a smile. He then asked: ”Are you sure you do not want me to send some soldiers with you to help defend?”
”I thank you for the offer, but Alastine will be just fine. All lands will be reclaimed shortly.” Alicia said as she poked the space in front of her. Causing a large tear in space to appear. With a wave of her hand, Alicia and her army that were riding the Fan'tal's, all entered the tear, disappearing from the throne room.
King Fimot sat back on his throne looking at the now empty room. He was glad he made the correct decision. He felt a bit of sympathy for any country that rubbed Alicia the wrong way.
Alicia had directly teleported everyone back to the edge of the capital. She wanted to give everyone a short rest before heading off to deal with the next issue. It would not be more than a day's rest but it was all she could allow at this point. Alicia was getting worried about King Augustus's wellbeing but she also knew that she could not push the men and women who were following her too far without proper rest.
Alicia took this time to go into her space to have a nice long visit with Frey. Since the start of the war, Alicia did not have much time to spend with Frey. This was clearly shown on Frey's pouting face as she sat on Alicia's shoulder. ”Mother hates Frey!”
Hearing these words made Alicia's heart sink. ”Frey, I am sorry I haven't spent much time with you but we are at war with many countries who are trying to take over our home.”Alicia did not know if Frey understood what was happening or understood what her words meant. But she could only explain it in this way since she did not know how else to explain it.
”Frey, your mother is not ignoring you because she wants to. She has no choice at this time.” Blake tried to back up Alicia only to see Frey's pout grow any bigger.
Under her breath, Frey whispered: ”Even the stinky father of mine is saying the same thing.”
Alicia who was the only one who could hear her words burst out laughing while patting Frey's head. ”Frey don't call Blake stinky.”
”But… Fine… I'm sorry.” Frey got up and flew over to Blake and kissed his cheek. ”Father when is Frey going to get a sister or brother?”
Everyone went dead silent hearing Frey's question. Alicia's face turned bright red. She wanted to scream that she was still just a little girl! But she knew Frey would not understand. She could only swallow her embarrassment as she said: ”Frey, you will not be getting a sister or brother for many years to come. Only when your mother is old enough and ready will such a thing happen.”
”Oh...” Frey answered while lowering her head a bit disappointed.
