True King's Ecstasy

"It's not something really deep, my lord, I just wanted to say sorry to Lady Delviny for acting disrespectful,"

Delviny looked at her with a surprised look, as she didn't expect her to come back so soon to ask for forgiveness for something that she didn't even feel angry about anymore.

"It's fine! I didn't mind it earlier," Kyla sighed feeling relaxed that she didn't hold a grudge against her.

"But-"

Both Velian and Delviny looked at them, as they heard Kyla's next words.

"We also want to prove ourselves in this tournament, so we don't want anyone running this chance from us, not even the other competitors,"

To Velian, It clearly looked like this group had some agenda of their own, but he felt that they were not something dangerous.

"Why do you want to prove? What purpose?" Unlike Velian who decided to ignore their sentence, Delviny questioned as she was curious.

Kyla looked at the sibling duo and squinted her eyes.

"We want to re-establish their ruined noble house, they were nobles from this land when the previous royalty was ruling here,"

Velian was surprised to hear something like that because even in the record there was nothing about these siblings.

"Then shouldn't they fight for it instead of you, aren't you just trying to give them everything on a silver platter,"

The question was like a bitter medicine for Amos, as every word Velian said straight went to his heart.

"I don't care either way, if you can show me you're worthy enough and able to serve me, I will give what you want,"

Velian said and permitted them to leave, but he gave one last look at Kyla and grabbed Delviny by her hips.

"Next time, don't go searching about other's relationship when it has nothing to do with you," Saying those words, he kissed Delviny in front of the crowd to show he wasn't playing when it came to their relationship.

"..."

"I won't-" Words barely came out of Kyla's mouth, as this was the first time he saw siblings kissing Jn in front of her and when she saw Delviny's face, she understood that this man in front of her wasn't normal.

To tame this lioness and convince her that he is something more than a brother, it aroused her curiosity to find out about this man, but for now, she decided to leave and get ready for Amos's fight.

As soon as the group left, Delviny looked at Velian and questioned.

"Brother, was that kiss necessary?"

"No, I just wanted to kiss you, didn't I tell you, even in front of the whole kingdom, I will proudly tell about our relationship, if they don't agree I will make them agree with it, I won't let anyone insult you,"

The other girls who were watching them from the other corner of the room had faint smiles on their faces.

"That was straight out of a fairy tale," Elda said with her eyes having a longing look.

"How can he say those cheeky lines with a straight face?" Sariya was embarrassed to admit it, but she felt a little tingle in her heart seen this young boy's face.

Daphnia just sighed as she knew that's how he is.

After this small reaction, they went back to the tournament but the questions still remained in Velian's mind.

What are competitors? What is competition and how are they going to overcome the threat of the blazing sun group?

***

The second day of the tournament ended up without anything major happening. Out of the 200 that were initially chosen only 70 managed to survive as some of the winners also had to voluntarily exit the tournament because of how badly they were injured.

The medics of the Kelleros Kingdom did their best to heal everyone and treat them, even though most of them were nearly appointed.

It was a great challenge to them, but it was something they were willing to take, so they can show something more than Velian expected from them.

As the event ended and everyone went back to their lodgings or houses, things got calm and the city took a silent nature.

Hannah wasn't excluded from this as she went back with Baron to their accommodation in the capital.

On their way, they happily talked about what they saw in the tournament, but Hannah's mind was working at full throttle thinking about how she was going to get close to Velian next.

*Tsk

'That proud idiot, why didn't he find me to give my handkerchief back? Ah, all my effort will go in vain, if he didn't find me'

It did cross her mind whether she got caught, but seeing nothing odd happening she had to think he was just busy with the ordinary stuff since he was a king right now.

After a few minutes of slow walking, they managed to see the accommodation they were currently staying, and Baron sighed in exhaustion as it was a hectic day for him. But the same cannot be said for Hannah, as she looked at the house with her eyes squinted.

As she got closer to her house, she couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. There was something off about the way the lights flickered in the windows and the way the front door creaked slightly in the wind.

| сom She didn't know whether her demonic senses were trying to play tricks, because she experience uncomfortable feelings like this most of the time after that day.

She shrugged it off, assuming that it was just her imagination playing tricks on her. But as she got closer, she realized that something was definitely wrong. The front door was slightly ajar, and she could feel faint signs of life forces coming from inside the house.

Hannah's heart began to race as she approached the door. She cautiously pushed it open and was met with silence. She stepped inside with Baron and thought about acting as if not noticing what happened but she knew for sure one thing.

She was surrounded and they were no ordinary thieves.
