Chapter 101: Zoe's Collapse, Leaving Rosecrans? by Harem-Fan

It was Sunday, before I left for the 2nd Year Mercenary Trial.

Rebeca, Evelina, Kayo, Zoe, Freya, and I are at Evil's home, while I held my Son, Rick.

The converted Nursery was very large, as big as Evil's Library, and there are 3 couches in a U-shape surrounding a large coffee table. I was sitting on the center-most couch with Rebeca holding my left arm, looking at all the women.

To my left sat Kayo and Evil, and to my right sat Freya and Zoe. I cleared my throat and said.

"Ahem~! I called everyone here for a few reasons..."

As everyone here looked interested, except Evelina who looked a bit nervous, so I opened with some known facts.

"Except for Freya, the rest of you will be apart from me for 3 weeks. When I get back, I will have a weekend to reunite with you all, and then I have to compete in the Fall Tournament. Well, this is only my backdrop for us to gather..."

I kissed the top of my child's head, as he slept in my arms, and then I explained my love connection again.

"Although all of you are already my most trusted family, please keep what I will reveal to only those in this room, so do not even tell Kim, Kelly, Mari, Dial, My parents, or just anyone not in this room..."

I took a deep breath and continued...

"You all know of my Love at First Sight that I had for Freya and Kayo, right?"

All the women nodded, and Evil did too, playing stupid.

"Well, there is a 3rd woman who I have this same connection with..."

While others looked a bit surprised, except for Zoe who knows, Rebeca guessed...

"Could it be with Evil?"

Evelina and I both looked shocked as we were amazed she nailed it!

Rebeca seeing our looks, smiled with relief for calling it correctly, and explained.

"For the last year, Evil has treated Sam too well... Taking Sam as his Master was obviously a cover to spend more time together. The only thing I cannot figure out is why keep it a secret?"

Evil knowing the jig was up said honestly.

"As the former Princess of the fallen Lorelei Kingdom, I still have many foes in the dark... So I did not want others to target Sam even harder than they already do. Sam and I only started to become lovers after I took him as my Student. He was not aware of our love for a long time because of Falbium making him afraid of me. But the day he met Freya and myself."

I take over for Evelena and said, while using my endearing nickname.

"Eve needs to disperse from public view after the Tournament for a while till around the first part of February... Because she has to hide from others. This nursery was not really built only for my Son and two unborn Half Elf angels, but for the child inside of Eve's belly..."

All the women went silent, but the person with the biggest reaction was... Zoe stood and pointed to Evil and stuttered.

"S-Sam and you h-have made a baby, for real?!"

This time, everyone heard her call me 'Sam' and not 'Master', showing how shocked Zoe was to find out about Evil getting pregnant.

Of course she was shocked because no matter how hard we tried in my last life with her, Evil never had a child.

Evil seeing Zoe frozen while pointing, said to me.

"Sam Dear, I think stupid Zoe is back, haha."

Personally, I do not understand why Zoe is so amazed, for she always seems to know everything, but this was the first time she looked truly stunned.

Freya said at this time.

"Big Sister, congratulations for getting pregnant, sigh, I seem to be the only one left waiting..."

Freya gave me sad eyes, like I have been holding back, and I said with cold sweat in my heart.

"Honey, you know I have been trying, okay? I will double my efforts, alright?"

Freya then smiled with a playful glint in her hazel eyes and said.

"I am teasing you Darling... I am only amazed you have had so many pregnancies with strong women so soon. Look at your Brother Salem, and his 13 children over almost 500 years."

Kayo added.

"Don't count me, I could control it, so he only really got lucky with three births, but he was also a lowly Circle with Rebeca at the time. So his real amazing thing is the two 9th Circle pregnancies he created."

Rebeca took little Richard Roland away and said to me gently.

"Husband, I think you need to comfort Zoe, she is still in shock, haha."

Zoe is still open mouthed staring at Evil, so I got up and hugged her.

As my arms held her, she softened, and I kissed her. Only then did she come back to me.

"Zoe my Wife, are you alright?"

When she looked into my eyes, she had some happy tears, and a big smile blossomed. She said while holding me tight.

"My amazing Husband, this life of ours is truly the best. Love that child with all of your heart, for I can tell that Evelina loves you, mwah!"

With Zoe back online and back to calling me Master, we all talked about many things. Evil finally had support from the other women, and felt a part of the Harem.

Zoe immediately scanned her and cast full healing to assure the baby would be healthy.

The night was happy, but clearly the most joyful person here was Zoe for sure.

-

Monday at noon, a Gothic-style carriage, led by 8 massive midnight black Clydesdale, rushed eastward...

All of the 2nd year students of the Royal Knight and Rosecrans Academy had formed their 8 man teams and split up after receiving their City Test Destinations...

-

Inside the magic carriage...

Nevin, Sue, Chuck, Franklin, Rando, Kelly, Kim, and I all sat in luxury.

Nevin was holding Sue, the white-haired City Lord's Daughter and his wife, with joy.

Chuck was busy telling Frank and Rando about his 3 new noble ladies from the West Dukedom he traded Letters of Intention with. He also hooked up with a 1st year Mage from Rosecrans. So now, he has 4 fiances he is courting.

Kim and Kelly are on each side of me, and Kelly said in surprise.

"Sam, Megan is not with us, because she is pregnant with Rando's child, so she dropped out for her second year, and will redo it next year."

Rando, hearing Kelly, said to me.

"Yup, we are happy, because this is my first child. If Megan was in school, I would have had to find another group, but fate made it possible to get a kid and hang out with you guys again, haha."

Frank asked.

"Hey Sam... Why is Zoe not stuck to you like normal? It seems strange she is not here with you?"

"Well, she is pregnant and taking care of little Rick for me, so until she gives birth, only Freya will come when I call her later."

Nevin said to the guys.

"It doesn't matter, we still have Sister Kelly for healing. Now she actually has to do her job, haha."

As everyone laughed at her, she only flipped Nevin off playfully, getting more laughs...

Chuck said to me.

"Hey Sam, have you ever been to or heard about the City we are going to?"

I shook my head, and then the Party Leader Rando spoke.

"East Pearl City is the 3rd largest City of the Northern Kingdom, bordering the Beast Forest, the East Sea, and a vast farmland to its north. The major City is known for its bustling trade with the South and scattered island Human independent settlements in and around the Eastern Sea."

-

Yes, the 3 Kingdoms are only the major Human settlements. But small islands still have Humans living on them, and they are outside of the North and South's control.

You can count some of these islands as Pirate Coves or mini-Nations with only a few thousand living there. But these places are hard to live on, because they tend to be ruled by Iron-Fist rulers, or Demon devastated communities living in fear.

These communities also suffer from Sea Monster attacks as an added bonus... In short, life on the East Sea is hard.

-

Chuck also added to his wish list.

"Pearl City is also full of the best seafood and spirits like Rum and Whisky. And as a major seaport, it has a good nightlife, hehe."

Then Rando asked as a side thought.

"I noticed Dial or Vera did not come with us?"

Kim, who was leaning into my left arm and had her legs crossed, answered for me.

"Actually, Dial was very upset she could not be with Sam this time, and Vera and Sam are not communicating well right now."

Chuck just blurted out my dirty laundry.

"Cough, Yeah, Vera came over to see Sam, who was coming out of some private time with Dial, his fiance, and well, you know Vera..."

All the boys and even Sue nodded in understanding, and my smile twitched seeing this. I asked.

"Do you guys know something about Vera I don't?"

Sue looked to Nevin who shrugged, and then she told me.

"Vera joined the Diplomacy and Botany classes, and did not look happy to find you were not there... And she has been asking me and others about you lately..."

I sigh and say.

"Sigh, She was the one that split us apart, but she still avoids me, and now there is nothing I can do about her."

Kelly squeezed my hand, and Frank said.

"Maybe she wants you to come and apologize to her?"

"Sure I can apologize, but for what? Then I have no idea where to go from there... I do not mind apologizing, but I do not feel I did anything wrong? I know she and Dial do not get along, but I have to follow my heart, even if Vera is upset at me... Besides, her Mother is always meddling, and Vera does not resist her, sigh."

Chuck leaned forward and asked.

"Wait, if her Mother was not an issue, you would be with Vera?"

I did not know what thoughts Chuck had, because he and Ryan talked about many things of the Royal family in private.

Anyways, I answered honestly.

"I think if Vera was not tightly controlled by her mother, she and I may have gotten closer, yes."

Chuck asked bluntly.

"Then give her a Letter of Intention, what can you lose?"

I shrugged and told the truth, because the King did not say it was a secret.

"Too late... The paperwork is underway, and I am being adopted as the 8th Prince after the Tournament if I win..."

While the others were a bit shocked, Chuck seemed to not be surprised. (Ryan told him everything already.)

"At least solve one doubt in my heart... If you could marry Vera Lucas at this moment without any issues and she wanted it, and you had to say yes-or-no at this moment, what would you say?"

"Sigh... I would say... Yes."

-

Who knew Chuck and Ryan had been scheming behind the King and Queen's back.

I had no idea I was involved in a plot to take revenge on the 7th Queen...
