True King's Ecstasy

Chapter 178 Management

?"Julie, what are you doing? Take these reports to Daphnia, why are you resting?"

It was the familiar voice of her sister-in-law but, unlike last time, she had a rather strict voice showing she wasn't playing with her anymore.

"But, sister we didn't get any break," Julie said while wiping her sweaty forehead with a wet wipe feeling rather refreshed.

"Workers should work, that's how we worked even when we were serving you, princess, so get up, you're not a princess anymore," Slapping her butt, her sister-in-law disciplined Julie who quickly reacted to it.

*Bam

Her ass jiggled a few times because of that but it quickly returned back to its original position showing, resting time is over for her.

"So what happened between you two yesterday? How was your date?" Interested in her brother's love life like a real sister, Julie questioned her sister-in-law whose face blushed showing it wasn't just a date.

"Ohhhhhhh~ Ohh, Ohh," Hoping to tease her sister, Julie tried to make her more nervous. But it backfired on her quickly as she grabbed her ear rather tightly.

"Princess, go back to your work,"

While they were having their own sweet movement, Julius entered the room with a rather happy look.

"Oh, brother, did something happen to make you this happy?"

"Julie, listen," With an excited look, Julius approached her sister and gave her some papers.

"My methods are working, Velian said people in the merchant guild appreciated my work and called them genius,"

Julie felt warm seeing her brother's happy face, which she hadn't seen in a long time.

"Good for you brother, by the way, when are you two going to marry? Now you don't have to worry about useless things like social status," Looking at her brother and sister, she questioned.

"Don't worry about that, as soon as we stabilize the kingdom," Julius didn't hesitate to answer show, he already had so many plans in his mind.

"Where did Velian go? He said he's going to go back for a few weeks, I heard Delviny is going to take his place,"

"Yeah, he left already, I don't know how but he really fast," Julie remembered how he surprised them, when they went to pick up Julius.

"Now, that's interesting," Julius said with a simple smile but, Julie noticed how different her previous brother and current one are.

"You've changed brother,"

"Is that so? I don't really-" Julius tried to deny it but, his other half also supported Julie with a smile.

"You look more free and happy,"

Julius just smile at her words, and slowly patted her head with a kind face.

"It's all thanks to you for being a brave sister to protect me, and-" She couldn't even enjoy the feeling of being appreciated like this, as she felt someone pulling her ear.

"Princess, if you don't go back to work right now, I'll tell Delciny to double your workload,"

As soon as Julie heard her words, she couldn't help but widen her eyes with fear.

"I will, don't do that,"

"Then go,"

Julius couldn't help but laugh seeing the antiques of these two girls, but before Julie left the room suddenly she turned back with a difficult face and asked a question, which Julius didn't want to hear.

"How's the father?" Julie didn't want to hear the answer for it seeing his brother's face but before she could leave Julius answered her with a rather vague answer.

"Forget about him Julie, he won't get better,"

With those words, Julie went back to her work, while Julius sat on the chair opposite him with an angry face.

"Uncle, why did you try to poison him? What's the purpose?"

With many questions in his mind, Julius went back to his works.

The small noble lands that didn't even have enough food to provide for their citizens developed rather quickly with Velian's intervention.

Even though the Rapidclaw kingdom was captured recently, that didn't stop people from taking full advantage of this situation.

Most of the merchants who saw the business opportunity and the skills of Davin's cooperation quickly flocked to meet Velian's group without any hesitation.

While his land was slowly developing into a great merchant district, Velian visited his old hometown Cantrell district to meet everyone with Lyra, Daphnia and other girls.

"I missed this place," Looking at the developed town with a great wall that could even rival the greatness and defence of the capital of the Rapidclaw kingdom, Velian muttered proudly while looking at the road which was newly built.

"Mother, we should properly gather everyone that we are going to appoint to control our lands and show them what it means to betray us until now we only had to deal with familiar people like Sariya and Aunt Asumiko,"

Velian paused for a minute and looked at Daphnia's face.

"But now, we are going to appoint most of the barons, counts, viscounts and dukes,"

Velian already had in his mind how to appoint people with the help of his system Luna and his skills.

"Sariya's and Asumiko's positions won't be changed but, we will appoint small nobles too,"

Daphnia also nodded her head in agreement. She didn't want Velian to be overwhelmed with work so asking for other people's help was the right choice for him.

"I wonder how Sariya's doing?"

Velian wanted to advance their relationship with both Sariya and Elda on this trip, because he really adored both of them despite them being enemies at first.

"Veli, shouldn't you consider about Juno? She's waiting for you to make a move," Daphnia questioned.

She wanted to collect every girl and talk with them about their situation, so one of them would try to mess with the other's relationship in future.

But right now, Delviny and Aiko weren't there, so she had to wait.

"Well, let's see, It looks like Sariya got the news about our arrival," Seeing the huge crowd in front of the main gate, Velian knew things won't be peaceful for him anymore.

"They are your subjects, so at least try to be friendly with them,"

With Daphnia's words, all of them entered the town with a smile while greeting everyone until they were approached by a rather familiar face.
