Chapter 612 A Well-Deserved Day Off

"So, who is coming along with you?" Celeste asked as she looked at Orion. Yesterday, when Orion returned home, he informed them about the conversation that had taken place between him and Caretaker Shani.

After listening to his plan, they all readily accepted it and were happy.

After staying on the farm for so long, they all wanted to return to the Village to take a stroll and see how it was doing.

However, they knew that they could not leave to avoid attracting too much attention.

Orion understood that, too, and thought about who he wanted to bring along. He took this as an opportunity to spend time with his wives before he left for the mountain again. He looked at all his partners, some of whom were waking up from their sleep, and some of whom were already awake.

Orion made his decision after a few moments.nOvelBIn

"Reena, Sura, Ayla, Fiona, Gina, and Grandma Derry, you six can follow me to the Village," Orion said as he looked at each woman he had chosen to accompany Caretaker Shani and him to the Village.

Reena shook her head in response, "Although I would have loved to head back to the Village and see how it's doing, I, Mom, Grandma Celia, and Ingrid are heading back to Anara's side of the farm today to see how Grace is doing," she said, glancing at her mother and the others who had fainted yesterday before shifting her attention back to Orion.

Orion nodded his head in understanding. "Alright, I'm sure Anara would be happy to see you guys," he said.

He had noticed how much calmer the women looked this morning and understood that Aunt Greta and the others had succeeded in talking some sense into them yesterday.

"Okay then, who wants to accompany us to the Village?" Orion asked.

He had chosen Sura because she had just gotten pregnant, and he wanted to give her some attention before he left for the mountain. He also wanted to spend more time with Ayla and Fiona since they hadn't done that in a while, while Gina and, especially, Grandma Derry had been acting grumpy since yesterday.

Orion, however, merely smiled at Caretaker Shani's question as he walked forward, holding Sura's hand in one hand and the two sacks over his back with the other.

Although he had passed by the Village Square a few times during the warrior's training and had even gotten the chance to see it from above when they released the children back to the Village before Stronghold Leader Drakar used it to run away, his mother used to sell her clay pots at the Village Square. She had recounted all of her stories about it.

So, even without physically being there, he already knew everything concerning the Village Square.

"We are here," Ayla announced.

In these stalls, men and women, old and young, had gathered, waking up early to sell their products or handmade items.

The entire place buzzed with activity as villagers searched for their desired items and bartered with Kalna fruits or other materials. Given that this was the primary marketplace in the Village, aside from the farm and the two strongholds, it wasn't surprising that it was already bustling with people this early in the morning. They could only hope to find something interesting.

"Well, let's go?" Orion said with a vibrant smile as he walked forward past the massive wooden gate, holding Sura's hand, while the rest followed behind him.

Once the afternoon sun cast its warm glow, they decided to leave the Village Square. Orion effortlessly carried several sacks within his arms and on his back as they made their way home.

His strength made it easy for him to handle the sacks, which contained new tulgas, beautiful handmade sculptures, colourful fabrics, and various other items. The limited options for recreational purchases in the Village Square drove their early return to the farm. Everything available there was geared toward survival, not entertainment.

Despite this, they managed to find a spot where they could squeeze Lipry fruits together to make delicious fruit juice. However, due to its cost and a desire not to waste the Kalna fruits they had brought, they shared a few cups.

Also, they came across a stall selling breast milk with small sliced Lipry fruits, but none of them were unsurprisingly interested in it, including Orion.
