Chapter 132 Familiar Sensation
Chapter 132 Familiar Sensation
?"Did you forget about me? It's really sad," With a hint of teasing in his voice, Velian looked at the beautiful middle-aged woman in front of him.
"It's you, I thought it was an assassin sneaking around to harm my lady," Mel quickly withdrew her sword putting it back in her sheath.
"Why can't you enter from the front door like a normal person?" After a few seconds only realised they were on the second floor so she got confused about how they entered without any noise.
"Forget about that, how did you even climb this high with these two?" She questioned but Velian had no intention to answer her.
Juno was dissatisfied with Mel's lack of respect for both Velian and Daphnia since they are the highest authority in this city right now but she didn't act as both of them didn't mind it.
"Do you want ser how?" He wanted to see Mel getting surprised by his skill but unexpectedly she just clicked her tongue.
"Tsk~ I don't have time for your games," She knew his playfulness since their first encounter so she didn't want to waste time.
"Forget about it, did you hear about what happened while you were absent?" She questioned him to which he looked at her with a confused look.
"What?" Velian had a bad feeling seeing her face as she had a full-blown frown.
"We got a message from a spy you sent to the Malfoy kingdom, according to him empire attacked their kingdom with a shortcut and massacred a lot of soldiers," Mel was worried about the whole situation.
"They are fast, I didn't expect them to finish it so soon, did they capture royalty?" Hearing his question, she couldn't help but smile wryly.
"I thought you would be at least surprised, looked like you expected this to happen." She felt her heart and mind calm down as she felt more confident seeing their leader acting like this.
If Velian acted all panicked and scared as the leader it would bring him a bad name as a coward. Besides he had no reason to be scared about them since none of them in the empire nor kingdom can harm him according to his knowledge.
"It wasn't me, Lyra was the one who predicted this result, even if the empire fought without any tricks like this, they would win this war as long as they have a superior army and numbers on their side," Daphnia was amazed to hear about Lyra's accomplishments.
She didn't expect her adopted daughter to be this intelligent as she had no idea about her real parents or education. Lyra mostly took learnt by supporting Delvi with her studies and from the books they brought from the empire.
'Now that I think about it, I never talked with her about her parents or anything like that,'
While Daphnia was thinking about these things, Velian decided to question more about the war as he was interested in what was going to happen next.
"Mel, where's Sariya and my sister?"
"Both of them should be at work right now, they didn't take a single break after hearing about the incoming danger," Velian couldn't help but worry about them.
"I hope they won't overwork their bodies," He thought before grabbing them while walking along the hallway after saying farewell to Mel.
"Juno, you can go back if you want, Old man must be waiting for you," Hearing Velian's words, she thought for a few minutes before going to meet her grandfather.
She wasn't worried about him since he was still healthy and strong but Juno wanted to see him nonetheless.
Daphnia was walking beside Velian thinking about Lyra until Velian disturbed her,
"Mother, sister will feel our bond since we are all connected by one bloodline so let's tell her about the truth, I'm sure she will accept our relationship," Daphnia looked conflicted about it as she felt embarrassed to do it.
"Veli, this isn't normal, I'm going to tell my daughter that I fell in love with my son but the strangest thing is we all love you, little playboy you seduced all of us," She said with a little smile.
"Did I? Maybe you brought me into this world to love you and take care care of you like a high-grade mana stone,"
"Cheeky boy! Don't seduce a lot of girls with those words," We were happily talking while going to meet Delvi.
It only took us a few minutes to reach where she was practising. As usual, she had her perfectly shaped body sweaty with her fiery red hair covering part of her face.
"Not enough! Speed up, Attack like your life depend on it," She shouted looking at her opponent.
Seeing her speed Velian couldn't help but question,
"Didn't she try to use her new training plan? This is just the ordinary speed,"
Most of the warriors around her respected Delvi as she showed such high-quality swordsmanship but they couldn't keep up with her training as she always went overboard with it.
"Faster! Faster! Concentrate more," She didn't notice Velian and Daphnia until all the girls in the training ground started to whisper among themselves.
"Veli," She shouted in the middle of her training as she lost her concentration on her opponent. Seeing this opportunity her opponent tried to attack her but surprisingly she was even able to block it even without looking at his attack.
"Ah, shit!" Everyone on the training ground was surprised by her abnormal movements.
"What the hell is that speed?"
"She wasn't serious this whole time, look at her hand there's no way it is normal,"
The people started to make different speculate about her as she happily went back to meet her brother without caring about anyone.
"As expected of the traning demoness, she was able to control and regulate her power within this short period of time," Velian thought looking at his beautiful sister who was approaching him with a big smile plastered on her face.
"Delvi, when did you learn to move like that?" Daphnia was happy to see her again as she went for a hug. But unexpectedly, she first hugged Velian before Daphnia.
"This girl!" She muttered in dissatisfaction seeing her being all clingy with Velian.
"Sorry mother I didn't see you, how are yo-" Noticing she missed her hug, Delvi quickly decided to make up for it but then only she noticed something strange.
"No way, this is the same feeling I got from Naomi, Veli did you?" Delvi looked at both Daphnia and Velian simultaneously.
"Let's go in sister, I need to talk with you," Just like that Keller family started to reunite again after a long time.
