True King's Ecstasy

Velian was strolling in the village talking with some people here and there. He usually did this to find some skilful people to train with hid appraisal skills.

Suddenly two kids came and hugged him,

"Big brother, why didn't you come to visit us for a long time? You know I wanted you to visit us frequently," One of the kids who hugged him said which brought a smile to Velian's face. The kid who hugged him was none other than Akiyo who was rather close with Velian because he admire Velian a lot.

The other kid didn't say anything but she refused to let him go. She hugged him like a Kola even after Akiyo released him. She was none other than Aiko who refused to let him go after hugging him. Both of them grew at a healthy rate. Akiyo looked taller with a healthy body. Akiyo didn't undergo the awakening because he had no aptitude for magic but just like his mother, Akiyo the road of the sword. Aiko was totally different from Aunt Asumi, Akiyo or her father. Even though she awakened as a mage, her aptitude doesn't follow the path of healing, she has the elements of wind and fire which is a perfect combination if used correctly. Velian used appraisal on her to check her current status because he hasn't met her for a long time.

Name: Aiko

Sex: Female

Age: 13

Race: Human

Overall Rank: C

Blessings: -

Elements: Fire, Wind

Velian was not surprised with her growing speed because this was the normal growing speed of humans unlike other cheaters like Delvi or specially Velian himself. Even though they were only one year apart ages, their growth was clearly different because Velian looked more adult than his age.

Aiko normally had an emotionless face when she was playing with her brother's friends or training but she was clearly happy being in the warmth of the Velian which caused her emotionless face to crumble and have a normal happy face.

Kids who were playing with them were surprised by her behaviour because she was known as cool beauty among her peers because of her emotionless face. They quickly surrounded Velian asking questions about his new brave acts. He had to spend a few hours talking with them about different things. All this time Aiko didn't let go of him while hugging his right hand with a sweet smile.

"Brother, teach me some magic," Aiko said looking at Velian cutely.

"Brother, if you teach Aiko magic you need to teach me sword too," Akiyo interrupted Aiko which she responded with a glare.

"You two, don't fight I will try to find a time to teach both of you," Velian answered which earned a happy smile from both of them.

I said farewell to them and wandered a little more until the sun goes down a little. When the sun went to hide between the mountains I went home remembering the words of my mother.

When I entered the house all three of them were present there expecting me to come back.

"Look like it's something serious to be this intense," Velian muttered to himself.

"Where did you go, baby? We were waiting for you to come back," Daphnia's heart was beating fast because of the intensity of the atmosphere.

"Brother, come here and sit down first eat something, you must be hungry," Delviny was also unusually tense. Lyra was silent with an anxious expression.

Velian obeyed their wish and three of the girls were staring at him with a nervous look. He finished the simple meat dish quickly because he was getting really uncomfortable with this unusual atmosphere.

"Veli, we have something important to tell you," Daphnia was the one to start the conversation.

"Yes, mother,"

"This is about our origin, you must have noticed that we're not from this village originally,"

"When you were one year old we were attacked by some assassins, I'm sorry for all this time for hiding this fact," She kept on talking without stopping.

"We were originally from the empire, keep calm and listen to this baby, it's true we are from the empire but we were not from the family of commoners or nobility, Veli,"

"..."

"Delviny and You're from the royalty blood of the empire and your father is the emperor"

Right after she said that Delvi's face became so angry, Even though Velian knew who he was it was still uncomfortable to hear about this. The thing Delvi hate most is her royalty blood which she got from the emperor and her red hair.

"Stop it, He's not our father, just because we are from his blood doesn't mean he automatically becomes our father, I won't accept him," Delvi shouted at Daphnia in an angry voice.

All three of them were tense but Velian had less reaction than they accepted. They knew he was intelligent and won't go berserk after hearing this but they didn't expect a calm reaction either.

"Mother, Do you still love that man?" Velian face changed when he asked the question.

"What are you talking about baby? I never had a love for them in the first place, it was all an arranged marriage," She answered quickly.

"Even though, I'm prince or not first of all you guys are my only family and whoever harmed you guys will pay their price, I don't really care about the emperor or the step-siblings I may have," Velian was feeling better after hearing she never loved that man. Unlike in his previous life, he has a huge desire to keep this family safe and love them with his whole soul.

"Brother, Just as I thought you're the best, I will definitely kill that red-haired family and especially that assassin who gave you that scar you have on your chest," Delvi was happy that he didn't really care about this.

"Looks like we were worried for nothing," Lyra was smiling after seeing my reaction.

"Mother, I have a question, you're from a noble family, right? Did they sell you to the royal family or was it your idea to get married to the royal family," Velian asked feeling curious about her past.

"Just as I said to you before it was an arranged marriage by my father and my eldest brother, My mother didn't approve of it but in the end, I couldn't reject the proposal from the royal family for the sake of my own family name, I stopped adventuring and got married but I don't regret it, It's because of that fake marriage I got my baby darling and my daughter," She was feeling nostalgic remembering her mother and family.

"Hmm~ that's all I wanted to know since mother said a grandmother is a good person I would like to meet her in the future,"

After they discussed and cleared everything they went to sleep and just like any other special day all four of them were sleeping cuddling on the same bed. Daphnia was feeling heavily relaxing after she revealed the secret. Just like that all of them fell asleep.
