Chapter 1841 A Mother's Love
Today most people woke up, preparing to go to work, only to receive calls and emails from their superiors, telling them to not come in and take a rest. Only those concerned with security and those who worked in particular industries and sites, still went to work. However, for today and the following 2 days, their pay per hour will be even greater than usual, as compensation for their hard work. But why? Why did they have this sudden 3 day holiday out of the blue? "Twins, you say? Damn, the Queen sure is strong! I'm so happy she and the babies are fine." "Hey, who knows what the children are called? I think I will name my first child after one of them. It will be so cool!" "Pfft~... His majesty Landon's stomach must be twisting in knots now. Everyone knows how much he has been looking forward to having a daughter."
"Well, I'm sure he's still happy with boys."
"Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah."

The air was filled with a mix of jubilation and disbelief as the people called and gossiped about the sudden news. And of course, you know the media was stringent behind the matter, with every news channel wanting to outdo another with the news. For a Monnet, all across Baymard, there was lively banter and cheers carrying their voices through the air. Bars and pubs were opened, allowing people to step in and join the jolly celebrations. Indeed, the Queen had pulled off a royal surprise - not one, but two bundles of joy! Many people looked at each other slyly, clashing their giant rum and beer jugs hard. Whelp, it looks like they'll need to double their celebrations tonight, so they could 'properly' celebrate each child. Twins! Can you believe it?
The Baymardians cheered and clapped, caught up in the revelry of the moment. Some people stood, one leg on their chair and one leg on the ground: "Gather 'round, good folk! Let's rejoice and be amazed, for our Queen has blessed us with twins! Let merriment reign throughout Baymard!"
"Here, here!" Clank!~
More mugs/Tankards clashed against each other, beer and other alcohols over spilling with each clink. And so, amidst the joyous chaos, the people celebrated this unexpected twist of fate with humor, laughter, and a sense of wonder at the arrival of two new members to their royal family.
3 days… 3 days off was quite nice. And it was all thanks to the appearance of the 2 princes that they were able to For some people, this was equivalent to 5 days off for them since right after the 3-day holiday ends, their weekly 2-day off days also begin. Hey~... No one hates having more days off right? (^o^)

After talking about the news and rambling with family and friends about the royal family, several people went back straight to bed, since they woke up very early, planning to commute to work. They made plans with others to meet up in bars, restaurants, food joints and other relaxation spots to join the celebrations. Take note that sites for touristic attractions were also available, so some preferred to go snowboarding, skiing, ice fishing, ice skating, go-kart racing, and even indoor and outdoor activities available for them. Thus began the 3-day celebratory period, welcoming the twins into this world.what were their names? Godric Barn and Wilfred Barn… Godric was the oldest. And the troublemaker was, of course, Wilfred. Yes~
Baymard's atmosphere was now boisterous, with schools across all Baymardian cities, towns and villages canceled for the next 3 days. Children made plans for meetup, and others chose their Otaku life, wanting to spend this time reading the latest Wuxia-style novels about cultivating to immortality and fighting against major sects to rise to the domains above. Please, this was the time for Otakus to crawl under their beds grab their latest published volume of their favorite light novels, ReadNovelFulls and even Manga, reading away like there is no tomorrow. Such was life in Baymard during these 3 days and even after that. There was boundless excitement in the air, for everyone knows that sometime in the summer, his majesty will officially celebrate the children's birth, meaning they will get another holiday similar to this one again. Hey… every Otaku loves holidays. (^V^)
Hooray! Hooray! Hooray! The Queen gave her people boundless bundles of joy, as many celebrated the children's coming into this world. However, the same atmosphere couldn't be said for several others far far away. …

Location: The Mackshire Noble Estate.
CRASH!!!! An entire pallet of food was swept off the table in a matter of seconds. Several people flinched back in fear, feeling that the beautiful woman standing before them was a double-sided creature who kept a gentle face to the masses, but behind closed doors, would torture them to no end. Yes, she was the reincarnation of the pure evil in their eyes.
For before she came into the estate, their lives were somewhat peaceful and uneventful. But since her moving in, everyday was like a battlefield, with no one knowing when a stray arrow will take their lives away. How could one woman cause so much havoc at such an old age? Well, their new mistress was 39 this year, and in the eyes of a majority of the world, she was already so old she no longer left DNA fingerprints anymore. People automatically looked at people nearing 40, as though they had 1 foot in the ground. It was funny that despite how good looking 40 year old women in this world looked, with their fit bodies and well-rounded structures, people still looked at them like old ancient grannies. Well, at that age, most of them were indeed grandmothers. "Worthless pieces of Trash!" Their lady's voice vibrated across the air, causing many to lower their trembling bodies even more. "All you had was 1 job… One simple, little job. Yet you buffoons managed to mess it all up in a single night." The woman paused, spitting out even more curses from their voluminous lips: "Trash…" Sera looked at the useless maids kneeling before her and quickly suppressed the urge to kill them all. 'No, I can't. This isn't Arcadina anymore. I can't let Duke Hamilton see this side of me… at least not yet." Sera's eyes flashed with a calculator light. Who was she? The former true Arcadian Queen who ruled alongside Alec Barn. Crown Prince Eli was her son, and she, a bonafide Queen who oversaw all harem activities. After fleeing Arcadina, she knew Pyno wasn't safe for her if she wished to slowly develop forces in the dark. Sera clenched her fists hard, when thinking of the fuck-up these useless slaves did. Everything was strategically planned, and they just set her plans back by a few months or even a year because of their failure. Dammit! Former Arcadinian Queen, Sera, was truly pissed!
'Son, hold on a bit longer… Soon, mother will come for you." Never underestimate the love of a mother.
