Transmigrating from a zombie world to become the mecha kings wife-Chapter 652: Beautiful day.

Lanta kept her company for the larger part of the night, and she only left when dawn was breaking which Scarlet appreciated because she didn’t think that she would have remained on solid ground if she was left on her own on the very first night of her return home.

After Lanta flew away, she left the house and found a spot in the middle of the very large fields which spanned for thousands of miles. There, she set up a rocking chair, placed her feet on a small table, covered herself with her blanket and finally closed her eyes just as the first sun was beginning to rise and the birds were taking to the skies.

Finally, she got some sleep, for at least three hours until she was discovered by some farmers that recognized her. Some took pictures which were shared on star net and this resulted in reporters, her guards and a few RGB officers showing up to the wine country to keep unnecessary people out.

She opened her eyes for a few seconds when Tion and the others arranged themselves around her as quietly as they could.

Still, this little ruckus did not keep her up and she continued her restful slumber, only opening her eyes when the bell that alerted the farm workers to the lunch hour loudly rung and rudely interrupted her sleep.

She woke up, frowned and yawned, then stretched her arms. That was not enough for her so she stood up and rotated her waist. Then, she stretched her legs and made a small cat like yowl before sitting back down again.

Someone had set up a large umbrella to shield her from the sun and a few small rugs around her, covering the ground in case she decided to walk around barefoot.

"Goodmorning governor." a voice came from behind her.

Without turning around, she answered, "Good morning Tion. Please tell Gertrude that I am ready for my breakfast."

The rugs, she guessed had been placed down by her maids. Now that she was visibly pregnant, her mother was sure to have told them to follow them everywhere.

Efficiently, with the help of the guards, the table on which she had placed her feet as she slept was lifted and a larger rug was placed down. Then, a hearty bowl of oatmeal and fresh fruit toppings of bananas, strawberries blueberries and raisins was placed in front of her.

She poured some of Lythia’s milk on top of the oatmeal and then took a bite. As a form of entertainment, she played some jazz music to set the mood for what she planned to do next.

She turned her head to the side and looked at her most loyal guard.

"Beautiful day Tion, isn’t it?"

"It would be more beautiful if I knew how my lady escaped the castle and made it here without detection." he replied.

She looked at his sour face and chuckled.

"Well, every girl needs to have her secrets now, doesn’t she?"

Still displeased, he replied, "Secrets like this will get you killed. You seem to have forgotten that there is still a threat against your life. Now that we are back we must be vigilant."

She didn’t address his concern but rather smiled mysteriously. Something which also irritated Tion. He suddenly preferred the days on the spaceship when he at least knew where she was all day. Here at home, she was often slippery like an eel.

"You are like a grumpy dad watching over a toddler Tion. I think you forget that I am not a child." She told him. "Speaking of children, how are yours? I have heard about the troubling news concerning your family state of affairs. Do you need time off? How can I help?"

"That won’t be necessary." He replied stiffly. His tone softened when he saw the genuine concern in her eyes. She was not asking because she wanted to gossip like the others, this he knew.

He relaxed his shoulders and answered, "The children are okay with things. Precious is already an adult and Eden is a lot more mature mentally than he needs to be. If I need time off, I will ask for it. Thank you for asking and offering."

The answer satisfied Scarlet and she abandoned any other questions about his personal life especially those Lora Storm related. The time to tease Tion had not yet arrived.

"What do you think about that monstrosity Tion, that grey tower which is being constructed between my vines and the shores?

She had chosen to sit in this particular spot because it gave her a clear view of an illegal structure that was being constructed in the city without her permission. Her guess was that it was the work of a Solarian.

It could not have been the work of the housing ministry because she had been specific about the kind of structures this city needed. It was supposed to be like a small countryside town, just bigger. It needed to have that feel of the countryside, warm air, no fumes , no noise, just peace.

Tion looked at the grey tower and replied, "It doesn’t fit in with the environment." She had called it a monstrosity which meant that she didn’t want it here. "Speaking of monstrosities, the minister of energy on Solaris, lord Basky would like to have a word with you. He has been waiting since morning and he is rather miffed because I wouldn’t allow anyone to wake you up."

She cleared the bowl of oatmeal and it was taken away. A fresh glass of orange juice replaced it. Accompanying it were prenatal vitamins that Mega had sent with Gertrude. She had no plans of swallowing a single one unfortunately.

Scarlet picked up the glass and told Tion, "Send him over."

Tion was surprised to hear that she would be willing to see the minister and he looked at her curiously.

"He is the father of one of the brats from last night isn’t he?" she asked him.

Tion nodded. The RGB had already sent a detailed file of information on all the boys. If Scarlet knew who he was, then she probably had a plan. He passed on an instruction and the minister was escorted over.

When he arrived, he was burning hot and spitting fire, glaring at Scarlet and immediately raised his voice as soon as he reached her.

"How dare you have my son arrested?"

Scarlet acted as if she didn’t hear him and slowly sipped on her juice. She even closed her eyes and moved her head along to the music slowly.

"Hey..." the minister yelled and snapped his fingers to attract her attention.

He was a noble man, a minister of energy on his planet, an influential position highly coveted by others. Even the emperor of the Sun star treated him with a degree of politeness. How then could this mere female governor treat him like air? She was just the wife a mecha warrior, a woman married into the royal family. She should have been on her knees apologizing for the order she had given last night.

He lifted his foot and kicked the small table. Unfortunately, it was a bit heavier than it looked so he didn’t accomplish his goal of toppling it over which made him even more angry.

Tion couldn’t stand to watch his rude behavior and he tugged the minister backwards. The man struggled against his hold but he was rather chubby, shorter and weaker that the more taller and robust Tion.

Scarlet put down the glass of juice and turned her entire body towards them. She smiled and said, "It’s okay Tion, let the minister rage on."

She already had a plan to enrage the man even further so why not let him jump up and down like a fool. Arresting his son was only the beginning.
