Chapter 881 Marriage
"Humph!"
"Talia talks too much..." Ruth said this after pouting, a little annoyed at her sister's action but not giving much relevance to it.
"But since Talia is a big mouth, I don't have much to say to you, mom..."
"I love Minos, and I want to have a life by his side. So, obviously, I want to have the privilege of being able to have children with him." She said confidently.
Hearing this direct answer from her daughter, Elise looked at Ruth, a little surprised, as she had not expected such a girl to say something like that to her.
"You..."
"Do you know what you are talking about? How can you be so irresponsible, Ruth? If your father heard that, he would turn green with rage!"
"Rest assured, Mother. Unfortunately, Minos has not yet been convinced to have children with me." Ruth said to her mother while she had a disappointed expression on her face.
"Good!"
"It seems that Maisie has not given birth to a child who does not think, as in my case..." She said in a slightly louder tone, laughing so as not to cry.
"And what do you intend to do if you succeed? Will you do like Maisie and leave the child with the father? Or will you go to that poor region to waste your talent?"
"Will you allow your children to grow up away from their grandmother?" Elise asked as she stood up from where she was standing, looking down at Ruth, face to face with this young woman.
"If I have the grace to have children with Minos, I will go to the northern region to live beside him!"pᴀɴᴅᴀ-ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ.ᴄᴏᴍ
"I can respect the decision my master has made, but I am not her."
"As for you, mother, you and father will also be able to go and live in the northern region. So, it won't be bad for anyone!" She said, smiling.
After hearing this, Elise looked strangely at her little daughter, who did not seem to be thinking straight at the moment. "Is that so?"
"What will we do with our cultivation? Give up everything, throw away our dreams, goals, and responsibilities? Are we going to do all that because you fell in love with a stubborn boy?"
The cultivation problem was real. The northern region of the Central Continent had no area of high spiritual concentration, something that was a must for such high-level cultivators.
Starting at level 70, cultivators could only achieve significant cultivation results by cultivating with high-grade crystals. But such crystals only appeared in regions of high spiritual concentration...
That was the problem!
Without these crystals nor the concentration of spiritual energy typical of high-level regions, cultivators like Elise would not be able to reach higher levels.
In other words, going to that region was almost the same as giving up cultivation itself!
Such a thing might not seem significant to Ruth, but that was just because she was still at the 6th stage, a part of cultivation that was not so affected by this issue.
But once she reached the 7th stage, she would realize this!
So, her mother could not help but raise this question, something of extreme relevance to anyone in this vast world. pᴀɴᴅᴀ ɴoᴠᴇʟ
"I don't know, mom. You don't have to do anything."
"I'm the one who wants it, so you shouldn't worry about it," Ruth said with a smile on her face as she thought about how impressive her boyfriend was. 'But I don't think that will be a problem...'
"Tsk!"
"Anyway, mom, I came here to ask you something," Ruth commented, ignoring her mother's reactions.
Elise then frowned her eyebrows and 'swallowed' the words she had to say to Ruth. "What do you want to ask?"
"I want to know how I can help my boyfriend more directly. I don't know if you know, but recently he has been fighting a war of independence."
"Oh? He's doing that?" Elise asked in surprise.
She naturally did not care how northerners spent their time. That region had little relevance to her, and other than the existence of Minos, her daughter's passion, she paid no attention to anything else.
Hence, she was unaware of Minos' boldness in rebelling and fighting against an entire region.
"If that is true, how do you expect to have children with him?" She looked thoughtfully at her young daughter. "The future of people from that area who have followed that path in the past has not been good at all."
Ruth then said without hesitation. "He will win the war."
"Is that so? Why do you think of that?" ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
"I naturally know my man..."
Elise's eyes sharpened even more after she heard such an answer.
'I don't know all his secrets, but I know enough to understand how powerful he will be in the future.' So, Ruth felt that while looking at the cat on her lap.
Purr!
Ruth had already noticed how Minos disappeared from Dry City while she was in that area.
Such situations could have to do with him coming and going from the dome. The defensive arrays of that structure prevented people inside or outside that place from probing targets on the other side.
But she had the impression that it was not as simple as that since Minos would disappear very quickly at certain times.
After all, he could not be as fast as light...
So, Ruth was aware that she was not privy to all of her boyfriend's secrets.
But she was not bothered by that.
Ruth did not feel that Minos kept her out of anything related to him because he did not trust her. The opposite of that, the problem was not her but rather the Gray Clouds Sect, to which she owed certain obligations.
Ruth then continued. "In any case, even though I stayed on the Black Plain for almost two years, I couldn't help him during that entire period."
"I also want to be with him without certain instruments getting in the way of our relationship..."
"So, I am here to ask you what alternative I have to solve that problem, mom." She said, having a serious expression on her face.
"Oh? So, you want to help him in that region actively..."
"What do you gain by getting involved in someone else's war, Ruth? Even if he wins it, even if the Spiritual Church allows your involvement, what would you gain from it?"
"What would I gain?"
"Hmmm."
"It wouldn't make that much difference to Minos, but it would be important to me, as I feel bad that I can't help him with his problems."
"So, that's it?" Elise asked, looking at her daughter, who then immediately nodded in agreement.
"Sigh..."
Seeing that, Elise sighed in defeat, noticing how in love with Minos that young woman was. 'She is willing to put herself at risk just to relieve the pressure on his shoulders...'
'It makes no sense to keep questioning her or trying to push her away from him.'
'That would only intensify her feelings for this young man.' She looked at Ruth thoughtfully, thinking about the current situation.
'Well, since that's the case, all that's left is for me to show her the best path, so she at least doesn't face so many dangers in her path.'
Elise was opposed to all this, but since her daughter would insist on it, she preferred to give the best advice so that Ruth could make her mistakes with some security.
At least she would not be totally unprotected!
And come to think of it, that was the role of parents.
No parent had the right to decide the fate of their children. But all of them definitely had an obligation to present the options, the best paths to follow, to advice so that their children would at least have the minimum necessary to react to their own mistakes.
And that was what Elise had chosen at this moment.
She then said. "There are some options for you..."
Ruth's eyes sparkled as this woman paid attention to her mother.
"One option is if your little boyfriend wins the war and reaches level 60. Then, he can negotiate with the church for some rules changes."
"Obviously, it won't be easy for him to reach that level being in that area, and such an option has implications that go far beyond your relationship."
"Good things like resources needed for someone above level 60 could get to that place more easily, but some dangers would also appear..."
pᴀɴᴅᴀ-ɴoᴠᴇʟ "Besides that, remain the option for you and him to get married with the blessing of the Spiritual Church. But, of course, with you marrying into his family, therefore abandoning yours."
"There is a complicated process regarding that, but it is possible..."
"You would just have to sign a Soul Contract with a Patriarch, promising the church that you will never receive or use your former position to interfere in that region."
Ruth's eyes then fluttered in happiness after she heard that part. 'It's easier than I thought!'
Just as a reminder, the positions in the Spiritual Church are as follows:* Spiritual Warrior = Deacon* Spiritual General = Priest* Spiritual King = Bishop* Spiritual Emperor = Archbishop* Spiritual Saint = Patriarch* Spiritual Sage/Spiritual Demigod = Cardinal* Spiritual Demigod/God = Pope",
