"However, the restaurant is facing a problem now. There is a shortage of wheat flour and fish, and we cannot provide some food customers want, which has led to many people's complaints..." The restaurant manager introduced the situation.

"Oh, there is no way to do this! Because of the war, the supply of grain and sea fish in the entire alliance was very tight, and it was not just us who were sad..." Cristoya sighed and said seriously: "I suggest that a notice be posted on the gate of every restaurant to explain the reasons and apologize to the customers. At the same time, it is recommended that customers order more beef and mutton, such as beef and mutton, fried beef, and roasted lamb legs... Andrea wrote a letter from Grummantum to tell me that this year, there are too many cattle and sheep raised in Lucania. If it is not consumed in large quantities, it will be a trivial matter for cattle and sheep to lose weight in winter. When it is too cold, it may freeze a lot, so the herdsmen will suffer great losses, so we should try to buy as much livestock from Lucania...

And considering that it is a difficult time, the people of the whole alliance are facing food shortages, and we will be resentful to the public at this time! So I decided to lower the price of all food and earn only a small amount of profit to pay the employees' salaries. Before the war ends, we must overcome the difficulties with the people of Dionia!"

"Yes, madam! I'll go and execute it right away!" The restaurant manager simply responded more.

Cristoya yawned. Seeing that the hostess was a little sleepy, Asuna immediately stepped forward to stop the talks and asked the supervisors to go back first.

"Madam, you're about to give birth, why are you still working so hard? You have to think about the children in your belly!..." Asuna complained while holding her.

Christoya gently held her round belly with her hands and said softly: "If such a big thing happened in the alliance, there will naturally be more things. If you don't handle it, you won't be able to deal with it. In a few days, Andrea will come and take over these things for me temporarily, so I can give birth to the baby with peace of mind..."

"It's great that Mrs. Andrea is coming!" Asuna said happily, and she helped Cristoya take a slow walk in the backyard to eliminate the swelling of Cristoya's legs caused by her sitting for a long time.

"Andrea will also bring her two children back to Turiyi (one of them is the son of the ex-husband) so that Bagule's father can meet his grandson well to satisfy his longing..." Cristoya sighed a little: Andrea had been married before, had a child, and married a family of alien leaders. It was able to accept the huge family of Bagule and get along well. Andrea made great efforts...

"Adoris and Clowe will definitely be very happy!" Asuna said with a smile.

Cristoya suddenly remembered and asked, "Is Agenth back?"

"Not yet. Madam, I think it's because the battle failed, not only did the number of people going to worship the Hades Temple, but even the number of believers in the Temple of Hera has increased, so Mrs. Agenis has not finished her work..." Asuna guessed.

"Nothing!" Cristoya frowned slightly and said anxiously: "She is pregnant too, how can she ignore her body? Send someone to call her back and say it was my order!"

"Yes!" Asuna knew that the hostess was right and hurried to call another female slave.

At this time, the backyard door was pushed open.

"Mother, I'm back." Cynthia took the initiative to catch up with her shoulder bag in her study utensils and supported Cristoya.

"Where is Adoris?"

“He and his classmates were playing rugby in the school square.”

"I hope he won't go home just like yesterday."

"He won't, I've warned him." Cynthia comforted Christoya, and then asked with concern: "Mother, is there any news about my father? This afternoon, everyone learned about our defeat in Silitung, and they had no intention of attending class. They also asked me, 'When will my father lead the army back?'"

Cristoya turned her head and looked at her adopted daughter who was about to reach her shoulders. She remembered her guard against Davers when she first met, but now she was proud of him. She couldn't help but feel relieved: "Don't worry, your father will come back soon!"

"Yeah!" Cynthia nodded vigorously.

"Mom, I'm back!" A crisp childish voice came from outside the door.

"This little trick is back!" Cristoya showed a doting smile on her face. Because she was about to give birth, Cristoya could no longer accompany the energetic little Crow, so she had to ask the female slave to take him to the square to play every day.

"Mother, I'll go with my brother." Cynthia came forward sensibly.

The female slave who came in then shouted excitedly: "Madam, good news! Good news! The messenger of Lucania came back and said that the master had won a great victory in that place in Poseidonia! He said that... he destroyed more than 20,000 enemies..."

"It's so great!" Cristoya couldn't help but shout. Davers led the army for so long, how could she not worry! But as a mistress, she just had to be calm, and this time she was really relieved...

As soon as she finished shouting this, she felt a heat flow between her legs and her abdomen began to swell and pain.

She had a fertility experience and immediately stood up, supported the stone table with her hands, and said in a steady tone: "Asuna, Assuna, I'm going to give birth, go quickly, go and inform Herps..."

………………………………

Just as Davers was in a hurry for Cristoya's childbirth, the news that "the consul led his army to defeat the Samonets in Lucania" calmed the people of Turiyi's start to panic. Among the people worshiping in Hades Temple, some publicly shouted the slogan "Let Lord Davers be the king" for the first time.

However, at dusk, the messenger galloping south once again broke the people's increasingly calming mood. "The army of Syracuse broke through the city of Silit, not only looting the whole city, but also turning the people of the city into slavery." This shocking news shocked the people of Turiyi again and shocked the Senate, which made the elders who were still hesitating quickly make a decision: agree with Phelisius' proposal and send the newly built Sixth Legion to Crimesa to protect the security of the Territory of Dionia.

……………………………

That night, when Turie Yeren tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep, a newborn was born in the Davers mansion.

"Madam, it's a healthy and lovely girl!" Asuna hugged the newly born child who had been wiped clean, tied the umbilical cord, and wrapped in clean linen, carefully came to the bedside and showed it to Cristoya.

Kristoya, who was so tired that she was weak, turned her head in difficulty, looked at her daughter who was cried with her hands and was crying loudly, and a kind smile appeared on her pretty sweaty face.

"…Eunice…her name is Eunice…” Christoya remembered the agreement with Davers.

Everyone who had been waiting anxiously outside the bedroom breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the good news of "Mother and Daughter's Peace".

In this era, having children is a big and difficult thing. Difficulty is a common thing in childbirth. Although Davers told Helps and other doctors about the fertility precautions he heard from his previous life, and also advocated that Dionyya's experienced midwife gather together, and after professional training, he became a doctor in the hospital who was responsible for delivering babies... The implementation of these measures has allowed Dionyya's neonatal mortality rate to be controlled to a certain extent, the mortality rate is still not low.

"Little Clow, you have a sister!" Agents stroked Little Clow's head and said softly.

"Sister?! Can I play with her often?!" Xiao Crow asked happily.

"Not now, just wait until she grows up." Agent explained to him while covering her slightly bulging belly. She sincerely hoped that she could give birth to a child smoothly in a few months.

"That's great, it's a sister!" Adoris also shouted happily. Little Clo pestered him and played every day. He didn't want another brother, so he would be very annoyed.

Cynthia was also very happy. She could finally have a small follower like other female classmates.

Eunice has been welcomed by the whole family since she was born.

……………………………

The next day, when the Turiyi Senate gathered the newly built Sixth Army soldiers in Victory Square and prepared to let them go south and station in Crimea, Syracuse's messenger Damocles walked into the city of Coulenia with his head held high.

Damocles brought Dionysius's ultimatum to Colenia: Submit immediately, otherwise Silitun will be its role model!

For a long time, Coulenia was the front line of the Crotone alliance to resist Locre, and its people were full of confidence in the defensive city, mainly because behind it was Crotone and other allies. However, this battle failed, Dionia, Crotone retreated, Cilicent and Trina were captured, and the power to support it was completely lost.

Now Courenia is already deeply encircled. Moreover, they have long heard that Syracuse had a strong ability to siege the city, Motia, which once captured the Carthaginians' important Sicily town. The news just came even more surprised them: Siliteng was lost in half a day (Syracuse and the Locred army strictly blocked the city of Courenia, making no one know that Siliteng's fall was because of Dionysius's treason). While the people of Courenia lost confidence in the defensive city, the tragic experience of the Siliteng also scared them.

The people of Colenians believe that even if Dionia and Crotone have the opportunity to counterattack in the future, by then, Colenian had already fallen, and they themselves had become slaves and were sold far away. Even if the city of Colenian was restored, it would have no meaning to them...

Finally, the Citizens' Congress unanimously decided: surrender to Syracuse!
Chapter completed!
