As farmers who had lived in the estate for years, many had assumed that the estate's land was cursed to never yield a good and high amount of food, but to their surprise, large fruits and plenty of them, were being harvested every three to four days.

If that wasn't a miracle, then what else could they possibly call it?

However, that wasn't all, because out of curiosity, some low ranked farmers decided to plant rice in their paddies while the remaining ones planted other grains, but to their astonishment, they began to grow faster and stronger than ever before.

Even the rice grains seemed bigger than they used to..

Seeing all these, the low-ranked farmers swiftly spread the news like wildfire across all four villages within the estate's territory, and soon, the people to see the Fourth Prince in an entirely new light.

Some even saw him as a blessing brought to them from the heavens.

Because at first, no one had expected much from the young prince.

Rumors had painted him as a spoiled, aloof and a simply inexperienced prince.

Moreover, he was only eighteen years old, so what could someone so young possibly do to improve the lives of the people.

But with each passing day, the people's skepticism slowly began to transform into respect and adoration.

Not only had the fourth prince relieved them from their heavy tax burdens and chased the inspectors out of the estate, he had also allowed the people to be able to eat three square meals again.

And now, somehow, he had restored fertility to the cursed lands of the estate.

Now, the people could smile again.

They could laugh more often, and even those who had been considering leaving the estate for better opportunities decided to stay.

Of course, they weren't certain that life would be any better out there than it is in the estate, but with everything that was happening now, they were glad they didn't make the choice to leave.

And this had made most of the people to keep singing praises of their new Lord.

But it wasn't just Austin they adored and respected the most.

Lina and Mira had also become beloved in the eyes of the villages because they were always seen working very hard to make the estate a better place..

That evening, Mira could be seen returning back to her room.

Her body was soaked in sweat after undergoing a long and intense solo training session in the training ground

She had been busy for the past few days, making wedding preparations with Aunt Sue always nearby to help.

While Lina and Elena had been diligently overseeing the agricultural management and food supply chains, Mira, on the other hand, had been busy coordinating with the seamstresses, overseeing delivery schedules and even finalizing the ceremonial robe designs.

But with the ceremony only a day away, most of these things were already in place, so she should be having more than enough time to rest and simply relax today.

But Mira didn't want to sit idly and do nothing, so she decided to train instead, and she's been in the training ground all morning with Little PP sparring along with her until she finally became exhausted.

Her footsteps echoed softly as she slowly approached her room.

As soon as she stepped into her room, Mira began untying her sash around her waist.

But just as she reached for her inner robe, her eyes suddenly glanced toward her futon.

Something felt.....off.

The center of the futon seemed slightly dipped, as if someone was already there, and Mira swiftly realized who it was.

A small smirk curled on her lips and she slowly approached the futon.

"Are you really going to sit there and watch me undress?"

At first there was silence, and one would think Mira was weird for simply talking to her own futon, but just when she was about to even doubt herself, Austin's form materialized before her as he deactivated his camouflage skill.

He was now sitting cross-legged on her bed, with his arms folded behind his head and a smile tugging his lips. "My lady, Can't a man admire his beautiful wife's body?"

"No."

"No? My dear wife, why not?"

Mira placed her hands on her hips with a beautiful smile on her lips. "Because it's called invading my privacy, dear husband."

"But since you enjoyed the way I was hiding and watching you, does it really count as an invasion of privacy?"

"When did I say I enjoyed it?"

"But you didn't scream when you realized I was there, and neither did you throw anything at me or try to cover yourself, so in a way, you can see why I thought you enjoyed the sight of your husband spying on his wife's sexy body." Austin shrugged knowingly with a wink but Mira simply rolled her eyes before crawling towards him on the futon.

"You're such a pervert."

"Well, that makes two of us."

Mira's smile widened even more as she leaned closer to his lips. "What am I going to do with you?"

"You could start by punishing me with kisses." Austin replied with a roguish wink but Mira scoffed, rolled her eyes and leaned forward anyway.

Her lips pressed against his on a long and slow kiss as their lips moved tenderly and they gradually deepened the kiss until Mira pulled back with a flushed face and a slightly dazed smile on her lips.

"Mm, that's the best punishment I've ever had."

"Idiot." Mira whispered affectionately before pecking his lips adoringly. "You're lucky I love you so much, or else I wouldn't have given you a bonus kiss."

Austin smiled and helped her sit beside him.

Then he gently brushed a damp lock of hair from her face.

He also noticed how her forehead was still drenched with beads of sweat and he couldn't help but pull her closer to him, kissing her neck lovingly and affectionately.

"You've been training all morning, why? Shouldn't you have used today to rest, especially since our wedding is tomorrow?"

Mira moaned softly as Austin continued to rain kisses down her neck. "It's fine. I don't really mind training today, and besides I didn't want to sit and do nothing while everyone else were busy carrying out one task or the other."

"Hmm, with an hardworking wife like you, what more could a man ask for?" He whispered as he continued to rain kisses on her cheeks, face and nose,not minding the fact that Mira was sweaty, but his affectionate show of love only allowed her to giggle softly as she tried to pull away from his grip.

But of course, Austin wasn't going to allow her to get away from him that easily .

He tightened his grip around his wife and showered her with even more kisses.

After all, he had the title of 'Doting Husband', so it was only expected of him to live up to that title.

And after a long moment of affectionate kisses from her beloved husband, Mira's beautiful face was now beet red.

Feeling satisfied with this, Austin finally stopped and called out to his beautiful wife. "Mira?"

"Hmm?"

"How would you feel about getting a massage?"

Hearing that her husband was willing to give her a massage, Mira understood why he had wanted to do it.

Massages were known to ease soreness and since she's been training all morning, her limbs were definitely sore right now, so Austin had opted to ease her pain, hence why he had suggested to give her a massage.

And since Austin had promised to give her a massage right after they had officially become husband and wife, Mira saw nothing wrong in Austin giving it to her now, especially since their wedding was coming up the next day.

Mira swiftly nodded and agreed to it. "Okay, but only if I get to take a bath first."

There was no way she was going to get a massage without having a bath first.

"Alright, deal. But when you're done, you should come back here. I'll be waiting and my naughty fingers will be ready to please you as well."

Mira giggled and lightly pecked his cheek before grabbing a clean robe and heading to the bath.

Ten minutes later, Mira returned back to the room.

Her skin was still damp from soaking her body in warm water and now, a simple robe was wrapped around her body.

But Austin was already waiting on the bed and kneeling with a towel laid out on the bed.

Austin patted the spot he wanted her to lie down on her stomach and she obliged.

Seeing this, Austin rubbed a small amount of warming oil between his palms.

"Are you ready?"

"Y-yes."

"Don't worry my love, I won't bite, unless you want me to."

Mira's cheeks reddened instantly but she didn't say anything to protest and Austin smiled before placing his hands on her shoulders.

Mira gasped softly as she felt his thumbs pressing slow, circular motions into her tight muscles.

Austin's hands slowly glowed with a green hue as he injected his spiritual energy into her muscles, causing the soreness in her shoulder to completely vanish as though it was never there to begin with.

But an intense wave of pleasure surged through her body, forcing Mira to unwittingly moan out in pleasure.
