She transmigrated and started different life 38 38.The truth

Xara shook her head and started laughing. "We have powers. Everyone with powers can't get sick from simple sicknesses like normal people. You didn't know?"

"I truly didn't. I knew we have some resistance. The cold is not too cold, the hot is not too hot. And we got much stronger last few months. It seems to have powers has many benefits."

The Lord and Xara looked at each other. "You have resistances?"

Kendra nodded as she made new summer rolls, as she called it.

Cian was in deep thought. If they use this they can open more branches. Kendra looked at him and knew his idea.

"Don't worry. I will talk to Fintan and give him few more ideas he can use. Some of them even in winter time."

"Fintan? You know Fintan?" Kendra could hear Lord's voice.

"Yes. The ice house owner if Fintan. He is a good person. Oh, by the way when I told him that some people took part in the plan to harm you, he almost froze half of the street in anger."

The Lord and Xara smiled as they taught about how they left nobles in hands of Fintan and rest of soldiers.

"He was one of the people that saved King's life. He left after he got hurt and we couldn't find him to thank him and help him heal. Unfortunately, he got hurt by curse so he can't overdo his powers. When I heard that he was on the gate I got really happy. The nobles will wish for a quick death. We left ...actually we got kicked out" he said with slight resentment.

Xara nodded."Yeah. They are so mean. We wanted to join in with punishments but Fintan literary froze us and put outside gates. Xara has strong fire powers, so we freed yourself quickly but even our soldiers rebelled and told us to take a stroll. Sigh. It seems they got bored last few months."

Kendra taught deeply about the problem. Fintan found a way to keep living, using his powers to do something. But these soldiers...

"Do they have families?" she asked while contemplated about something in her mind.

"No, most of the soldiers that I took here were orphans due to the war and few with families plan to bring them here and settle down."

They looked at a small child that was in deep thought. It seems he might have some solutions. Kendra looked at them seriously.

"I will ask you a few questions and I hope you can answer them to me."

They will, of course, do that, but the ice cream...They looked at it as it slowly started to melt.

"You can answer and eat. It would be waste to let it melt..." she didn't even finish as the four people started attacking the bowl with ice cream. Her mouth started twitching.

She felt sad for all those that grew up on battlefields. They never had a real childhood. That is why they seemed to be doing many things and acting up in that manner.

''First: Did you make any plans for their future? Second: How big is this town, how big are other towns and how big is the country? Third: How many people live and where? Fourth: What which region of this country really needs?"

Both of them stopped eating and turned to the child."This town is one of the smallest in the country. You can guess then how big other towns are. The plans for them, I indeed have but would not mind any suggestions. Rest of the questions I understood. I will gather all the information's and send it to you. "He spoke with confidence but Kendra stopped him.

"Then before sending anything to me get all the information, gather the soldiers and officers and let them give you suggestions. Then make a plan and give me everything you did, including their suggestion. After I finish with planting part of potatoes, I and Isaa plan to have some fun on our island. If it's possible I don't want anyone to bother us. Please." she looked at him with pleading eyes.

He realized that this child is quite stressed. Everyone is coming to this child for days and they totally forgot that this is a child and not grow up. He stroked Kendra's head and sighed."We indeed bothered you long enough. I just taught that you two might feel scared and lonely. But seeing you fighting all alone for your own peace and freedom makes me feel like seeing us in you. Same like us..." he sighed while remembering his childhood days on the battlefield. They had to grow up early.

"Thank you for taking us in. I can feel that even if we offer you, you probably wouldn't take our offer to adopt the two of you." Xara saw reluctance in Kendra's eyes."Don't worry. Live free. We won't interfere. Well not much. After we found out that those people caused his father's death...It was too shocking. Not only that. Because some machinations there are many nobles in different towns that were connected to the enemy. They caused death to many of our country people. "

Kendra felt anger well inside of her. She feels safe in this town. Even if she plans to leave, she will do her best to help as much she can to stabilize the situation in the city.

"I have many weird ideas. Some might work for you, some not. I think you should know about me a bit." she sighed and let Isaa and Cian go outside and play. She looked at the two silent people in front of her.

"My story is strange. I woke up in a ditch near some street at the nearby village. It seemed as I was discarded like garbage as I was covered from top till bottom in filth. Sometimes I imagine still the smell on my body and have feeling that I need to wash." She was in deep thought while trying to explain without to expose her transmigration into this child.

"I didn't know what was going on. I tried to wash but had nothing. Nearby was a house and I saw clean clothes. I planned to steal one shirt so I had something to wear after taking a bath. But one old man in that house felt sorry for me. He gave me a child's old clothes, a blanket and something to eat. I hope one day I can go there and give him help if he ever needs it. He was the first person that helped me."

She told them what happened after that, how she met Isaa and what happened since then.

When she finished she looked at two silent people. "All I want is to find slowly about our powers. I don't want to fight, I don't want to go to war and I don't want to be bothered by anyone. No matter who my family is, they threw me away like garbage. I hope one day only to be strong enough that everyone stays away from me. "

The Lord saw the heaviness in the child's eyes."I will do as much as I can to provide you a stable and safe childhood. I will ask the King for a favor. Don't look at me that way. You don't know, but in the last 20 years, only a few children were born with powers. It seems that with time, less and less people will have powers. "

He looked at the two children playing."Cian, Isaa and you are the only children in town with powers. And that is a lot. In most city's there are no power children born last 20 years. Even capital has only five of them. Two are Kings children. A boy and a girl. In the whole country, there are about 40-50 Children born in the last ten years. Now do you understand why I have to report. He has to know just in case someone tries to make trouble again. By the new law, the power children are under the protection of the country. "

Kendra smirked.''His protection? If you involve us in that protection list, there will be even bigger issues in the future. Do you think the enemies of the country sit still and do nothing? What if there were many power children, but got ''accidents''? Do you think that enemies will sit still after seeing how powerful you all are?''

Xara flared up.''She is right. I think same as Kendra. Brother already said it was strange that there were not enough power children born lately. He is worried as well. We will not send anything to him. After we see him we will secretly tell him about you all. In the time between we will start looking for information. It is impossible that there were absolutely no power children born lately.''

The more she spoke the more she got worked up.

The Lord got suspicious as well. He had to admit that Kendras request to be left out was quite reasonable. ''I understand. We will do it your way.''

But the next words made him even more alarmed.

''What if your town was just top of the iceberg. It is just a small town, but so many bad people lived here. You have to understand what I am going to tell you now. You have to start deep searches around the city as well. All the villages, forests, mountains and hills have to be searched thoroughly. Not only that. You have to find a secret place where your soldiers and guards can secretly train every day. You can't let them loose vigilance. The guards can be only those that had a connection to this place from the beginning and have direct family in the town.''

The Lord got feeling that he has so many things to do...''I will as well start to have stronger guards on the gates and list of entries of the people and their purpose. I planned already to start let them train in underground prison as it is huge and no one can hear anything from there. The entry to the palace will be set to the minimum and only people with my permission will be able to enter. All other things will be done by the officers and judges I will appoint. I don't want too many people to know what I plan to do.''

Kendra hesitated for a moment as she considered so many things.

''I will just let you all do whatever you want to. I don't have much experience in real life so I could just give you some pointers. But send me lists and after I come back from my little vacation I will send you note over officer Luar. I have one big idea on how to earn good money. But first I will try it out.''

She stood up and they followed her. They saw the two children sitting on something that looked like swing and chatted cheerfully.

''By the way, that are hanging beds. I think this is a good idea to sleep when going outside. Come sit down.''she said cheerfully and held Xara's hand to pull her towards hammocks.

''Flying beds?''said the Lord while looking at the cloth that was stretched between trees.

Kendra got frustrated with this man.''Not flying beds...Hanging beds. Even names are not even simmilar. How did you come up with that kind of strange name?''

''By the first wind you will fly out of it or with it...''he said with straight face. Xara shook her head and had an apologetic expression on her face.

''I am sorry. He has a good heart but is quite annoying sometimes. I have no idea how am I gonna survive our marriage. Hmm maybe I should just give it up.''she looked at him with a glint in her eyes and a slight smile.

''No. You can't escape. I will marry you or I will not marry anyone else and will just turn into an old man and die alone. Do you really hate me that much that you want me to die without you?''He felt despair all of sudden. He has no one, just her on this world. If she leaves him...

''I know, I know,''she said while looking at his wronged face. His eyes were filled with despair and she didn't like that. She liked him most when he is quirky and happy. She smiled playfully and gave his face big loud smooch.

She left him there in a daze as she took Kendra's hand and went to try these hanging (flying) beds.

She tried to sit down and found it quite comfortable.''This is just peace of colth with strings? It is so practical. If we had this kind of idea doing the war, we could have saved ourself of sleeping on a hard floor a long time ago.''

Kendra stopped her excitement.''This is possible only for outings and when you have a place to hang these. In the war, you have to jump sometimes quickly and these could slow you down while doing that. But its a great idea for the summer months to sleep outside.''

The Lord came out of his daze and looked at the beds.''Do you have some simple name for it?''

''Hammocks,''said Kendra while hoping that inventor won't get angry at her for stealing his idea.

''Why hammocks?'' asked Xara with a doubtful expression.''Makes no sense.''

Unfortunately, Kendra didn't know background story so she just sprouted first thing that came to her mind.''We hang in the wind like hamm at drying and are high enough from the ground and protected from rocks, so hammock. That is only my idea if you have better just let me know.''

They both were interested in this thing and looked at Kendra with an awkward expression. They wanted to ask her but didn't dare. She sighed.

''I got six of these. I can sell two to you two. One gold each.'' she said while thickening her face. They had now enough gold. And she needs every little bit of it.

Xara looked at the child with amazement. She just casually dropped the bomb and not even feeling bad. She laughed. After many years ay army she gathered quite a lot money so couple gold coins are nothing for her. She pulled two gold coins from her bag and gave it to Kendra.

Kendra looked at the gold pieces with shiny eyes and smiled brightly at Xara. The Lord wanted to step in front of Xara to protect her from Kendra but saw that this time, Kendra had an honest bright grin.

''Do you like gold so much?''he asked perplexed at the gold-loving child.

''Of course. But I like the ones only that I earned.'' She doesn't need donations. Their situation is now safe and she can earn money without anyone having a feeling that she needs support.

Xara and the Lord saw that she wanted to be independent of everything and everyone. They nodded at each other as they walked hand in hand back home. Kendra Isaa and Cian send them off at the gate.

They saw two peopel holding hands and smiling at each other. The sunset colored them into amazing color as they slowly disappeared from the sight of the three children that planned to go to sleep. Even Cian felt that those beds were quite comfortable and he planned to sleep as well in it.

Xara and the Lord turned around and looked at the house that shone with various colors and contained the future of the country. They need to protect it well. The Lord slowly passed through the streets of the outer city and saw children playing outside without care. People taking a stroll on the streets with a smile on their faces while chatting with each other,

It seems that their decision was right. To live like this, relaxed and happy is the right way. He will work even harder to prevent any force to destroy such a perfect place. He hugged her as he passed the inner city that had similar feeling and even nobles circle was quite peaceful.

He held her hand and looked at her eyes with devotion.''This small place is not perfect but if WE work TOGETHER, we might make it an even better place. Place where our children will play with kids from all parts of town in peace and without fear. What do you think?''

Even if she was today valiant, but at this moment she was just a young woman who was loved and was in love. She looked at him shyly while her face started getting red.''Let's do that, together...''
