Akiyo couldn't believe what he was seeing. For a moment, he had doubted whether Aiko really had some kind of a deep connection with Velian.
"What's happening here?" Getting close to the gate, Velian questioned the guard and looked at the two siblings in front of him.
He looked at them and smiled showing, he didn't forget their faces.
"My lord, they are trying to enter the castle saying they know you, I just wanted some proof, otherwise I can't," Seeing him similar g at two kids, he knew they knew each other so he tried to be truthful about his purpose.
"Good work! Keep it up, I will allow these two to enter," Velian said and opened the gate, for the two siblings.
"After a long time, both of you have gotten taller," Patting both of their heads, Velian quickly took them to the castle while Aiko was happily smiling.
Akiyo didn't dislike head pats, but he wanted to look manly so, he quickly asked Velian to stop doing that.
"Did you come alone? Where's she? Your mother," Confused about why Asumi didn't come with them, Velian questioned.
He was worried about her, but hearing that she just couldn't leave the alliance for the moment, Velian felt relieved.
"Yes brother, she will come for the banquet, we came here to help you," Akiyo said with his hands quickly going to his sword, showing he was ready to fight for him.
"Ohhh~ that's the sword, I gave you, did Asumi train you?"
"Yes, but I wasn't satisfied with her training, so I wanted to learn from you or big sister Delviny," Akiyo didn't know he made a huge mistake there with his words.
"Akiyo, you really underestimate your mother, she's the one who trained Delviny, even though my sister surpassed your mother, she got all her basics from your mother,"
Akiyo wasn't surprised to hear about this because, he heard about that in the village but after getting confirmation, he felt a little proud of his mother.
"So are you two going to stay here? After all, I promised you to give military training, so I won't go back on my promise,"
Velian knew it is their time to shine, so he decided to put them in the military for the next battle.
"Aiko, if you want you can join the mage squad, my mother will train you," Looking at the girl, who was clinging to him, unlike Akiyo, Velian questioned.
Aiko just nodded her head showing she was okay with anything as long as she can stay by Velian's side.
"Good, let's go and meet others, they will be happy to see you," Thinking about how Daphnia and Delviny would react, Velian took them to the meeting room, where all the girls were discussing the banquet.
"Mother, look who's here," Opening the door with a huge bang, Veliam pushed both Aiko and Akiyo.
Everyone in the room looked at the two siblings for a minute and Daphnia quickly got up from her seat and quickly hugged both of them.
"You two, why didn't you come earlier? I really missed you,"
Delviny also looked at them and waved her hand, showing she was happy to see them.
"They want to help us with the banquet, Aunt sent them as helpers," Velian said and thought about what they are suitable for.
"Hmm~ Akiyo can help with the security, sister make sure he is ready before enrolling him in the army," Looking at Delviny, Velian handed over Akiyo to her.
Delviny nodded her head and looked at Akiyo,
"I hope you won't disappoint me, come I will see how you did your training," Delviny tried to leave the room with him, but Velian quickly stopped her.
"Go easy on him, don't forget about your rank," He had to warm because he knew, how Delviny trained newbies.
Almost all the newbies in the army hate her but, when they become veterans, they suddenly start worshipping her like an idol.
The main reason for this was her training.
Most of the newbies don't understand why she almost kill them while doing training but when they experience their first battle, they understand Delviny was just trying to help them to overcome their fears.
"I won't, how exactly do you think about me, Veli? I'm not some kind of a devil," In dissatisfaction, she muttered but others didn't look convinced.
ραпdα Йᴏνê|(сòm) But there is one thing others didn't agree with except Daphnia.
Others noticed how hypocritical Velian's words were because he was an even bigger devil than Delviny when training.
"Aiko, what do you want to do?" Leaving Akiyo in Delviny's care, Velian looked at the beautiful girl, who was clinging to his arm.
Everyone in the room noticed, she wasn't just clinging onto him like that because she considered Velian a brother.
"Looks like we have a new rival," Sariya looked at Daphnia and muttered.
Daphnia just nodded her head and looked at Aiko.
"Her mother already proposed their relationship, but Velian refused," Hearing Daphnia's words, Sariya felt curious because this was the first time he heard about Velian re-using someone.
"Why?"
"He said she's too young, I guess Aiko won't be lucky until next year," Daphnia had no problem because she had already seen noble children getting betrothed when they were toddlers.
"Hmm~ I don't see any problems, but whatever, we can't exactly force," Sariya said and looked at their interaction.
"I want to be with you brother," She said in a cute voice.
"I'm happy to hear that but, I will be the main host so I have different things to do, for now, you can work under my mother," Pointing at Daphnia, Velian muttered to which Aiko also agreed.
Elda also came forward and introduced herself to Aiko. At first, their interaction was a little awkward, but they were able to quickly become friends because of their adoration for Velian.
The meeting ended with everyone going back to their work.
Velian also went to meet Julius to discuss about their position from now because, he wanted to know how they feel about this whole thing before it was too late to make things right.
