The word about the Safe Heaven City spread far and bright in no time. But at first, no one came. The people continued doing trades every ten days or so. Some people came more often as they were from nearby villages and some came from far.The spirit beast sect started using animals to trade between villages and was quite successful in it. At the same time, they send the invitation from Grounding fairy sect for all the pregnant women to join the Safe Heaven City to go and live there comfortably together with their children.
Now the trading market was actually separated by a large wall from living s.p.a.ce so even if there was someone living, they would be so disturbed. But what actually should they do? Should they go, or not?
It was already mid of summer when the two women in their sect delivered the babies. It was almost festival as Kendra helped them with delivery to proceed fast and almost painless. After that, she explained to Cynthia how she should heal their bodies and not even day later they walked like they were never pregnant.
In mid of the main room, people discussed loudly until Kendra and Isaa didn"t enter. The sudden silence made them feel uncomfortable so when Isaa couldn"t handle anymore she asked curiously. ""What is it? Did something happened?""
Cynthia had at this moment only one that had guts to ask. ""Uhm, Kendra... We know each other now for so long. Can you answer a few questions for us?""
This time she sat down at the table and nodded. Suddenly large noise could be heard and everyone sat in a circle so they all had better look at her. ""Fine... I will try to answer it all, so start, who wants to ask first?""
Cynthia rose first her hand. ""I know this is a strange question, but what is actually your power?""
Everyone went silent while watching her eagerly. Isaa chuckled but let Kendra explain.
""All of you know that I know how to make arrays and formations, right?"" She could see everyone staring at her eagerly. ""To use such power your own base of power must be extremely strong, right?""
As they had no idea about formations and arrays, they had no idea what she was talking about.
""Do you mean something like that cloud. You said it is being made from sort of formation."" Cynthia looked at her with a question in her eyes.
Kendra nodded. ""That is an only simplified thing. What is actually power whisp? You remember there are many different kinds of power whisps right? But how comes when we exclude our own it is always just white?"" She looked around and saw everyone"s confused expressions. ""And then is that other thing. My power whisp has more energy than yours. Why?""
Everyone"s heart jumped in fright. If that is true this child is just... monster even between cultivators. Their expressions changed greatly and they realized that they were playing around someone who is this powerful. In their eyes, Kendra rose by bounds now.
She rose her hand and sighed. ""I never wanted to say it as wanted you all to just enjoy your time here. This child"s body of mine is at this moment quite bothersome. But from the other side, it is fine as not many people can take me seriously and will always think of me as weak. About us, I still hope you will be the same. As a child, I had no time to play around and have a nice childhood and knowing your childhoods I fear none of you had a good time.""
Isaa chuckled. ""What she wants to say is, use this as a playground and grow not only in the body than in the head as well. You all lived so long and never knew real fun until you went to the ""Coc.o.o.n"", right?""
Somehow the moment they entered the Coc.o.o.n they stopped being grown-ups and wanted to play around. The inside of it was the safest and most fun place they have ever been. Their inner playful selves got full out the moment they started playing.
Even cultivating inside is fun. Sometimes they would cultivate for a while and sometimes they would just play with the Thing or between themselves like small children. While they sat there they felt ashamed a bit but on the other hand, Kendra gave them rea.s.surance that this thing is not bad. So what if they have fun?
Anita held her little daughter in her hand and smiled. ""I turned to be a playful mother. Is that even good?"" Her face had a bit of worry written all over it.
Everyone"s eyes turned to the little baby Mou how they called her. Her eyes were the same as a mother, her hair as the father but what was most stunning was the power that she was born with. Not only that the other baby had powers as well. A boy that was born almost at the same time as Mou. In the joke, they made his name Dou. But everyone liked the name and Kendra, oh surprise, remembered those two names straight away.
Parents of children choose to make them grow up together in the sect as siblings and if in future they start liking each other, wouldn"t that be good as well? Kendra could only shake her head on such plans. The matters of the heart are not that easy to be done.
While her thoughts were randomly going here and there, she chuckled at her own situation. Oh, Taskmaster, you little whisp... what should I od with you...? What is actually your real name? And what is actually going on over there?
""To be playful mother maybe is the best thing for a child. don"t say the child should be brought up to be selfish and without respect. But childhood lasts just this short amount of time. They should learn how to have fun and at the same time they have to understand that if they do something wrong, they could be punished. So being playful is not a bad thing. It is good for the mind and body. Right, Isaa?""She pointed at her sister that suddenly smiled brightly.
""Sister is right. I look now quite serious, but as a child, I was so playful. And I have to admit, I liked playing around. I wish we could turn tie and be children again."" She pouted.
Kendra just shook her head. ""No need to turn your time back. I will make a formation where we can play games or just have fun. But only once a day! We still have to think about next winter. It is already mid of summer..."" But suddenly a hand stopped her talking.
""Sister, you are mean. You want us to be playful and work hard?"" Like a small child, Isaa blinked ta her making everyone laugh from heart out.
""Of course, if I have to deal with that, you little kids have to do it as well. After that, fun!!! But let me explain about formations..."" She continued explaining about the formations and completely made them forget their initial question.
How powerful are you, Kendra?
