"Brother, don't go," Velian was being hugged tightly by a girl who was on the verge of crying. She had crystal-like tears leaking from her eyes looking at the crowd with a frown.
'Tsk~ why won't anyone stop him? Am I the only one who cares about him?' While she was thinking all these rude things inside her mind, she didn't forget to show her tears to Velian.
"Aiko, don't bother him, Velian has work to do there," Asumi tried to stop her even though she couldn't separate her tight kola-like hug.
She just gave an abrupt look before going back into hiding her face in Velian's chest.
"This girl!" She tried to be strict with her but, Daphnia quickly interfered.
"Aiko, be a good girl and practice all the things I taught you so when you become a little older," She whispered something into her ears which didn't go unnoticed by Velian's super hearing.
"Heh~" Surprising both Asumi and Akiyo she released Velian with a blushed face.
"Aunty, what did you promise her? I want something too," Akiyo thought that she must have promised something valuable to her.
"You too~" Asumi tried to blame him for starting another drama but Velian quickly drop a bomb on her head.
"Akiyo, Keep practising until I send a message, in the next war I will let you fight," Hearing his words, Akiyo started to laugh while other kids were looking at him with a jealous looks.
"Veli," Asumi looked like she had many things to say about it but before she could complain, Velian decided to tell her about his plans.
"Don't worry aunty, I won't send him to the frontlines, I know he isn't ready to witness a blood bath yet, so at first he will experience what war really is," She sighed with relief hearing it.
"I believe you, I know you won't do anything to harm him or my family,"
Velian just gave a little kiss on her cheeks with pure familial love.
"Take care aunty, I will soon connect these two cities so we won't have to be too far away from each other and enjoy your new mansion, I did a lot of work to build it," She smiled wryly hearing his words.
"It's too much, especially that huge bath," Even she had no idea why Velian wanted such a huge bath.
"What can I say? I'm a bath enthusiast," Velian slowly got close to her ear and whispered,
"You know aunty, bath sex feels great why don't you try it with uncle?" He quickly ran after whispering it to her without getting caught.
"Naughty kid!" She said with a smile before looking at Daphnia who was looking at her with a deadly stare.
*Cough
"Both of you have a safe journey, make sure to send me messages," Asumi looked at them with a dignified look trying to act like a chief.
Since numerous people are now depending on them they had to act like proper leaders. Asumi and Daphnia both decided to do this but Velian didn't give a single care about things like that.
"You too, if something happens make sure to tell me," Everyone was there to say farewell to them as they might not see them for another few months.
Most of the people that came with Velian to visit their families decided to stay there until the war starts so they can enjoy some quality time with their families.
Velian or Juno said nothing against it as they understood how important it is to them.
"Juno, hand over your leadership to someone and tell them to follow the path to the city," Velian said exiting the city under everyone's voices.
Both Juno and Daphnia got confused by this statement.
"Veli, why can't we go with them?" Daphnia questioned him.
"This is really slow, I only did it the first time because I wanted to observe the road but I don't want to go like that again," He said while pointing at the carriage.
Juno came back after giving orders to them without slowing down as she was excited to see what Velian wanted to do.
"Then how are we going to go back?" They didn't have time to question as Velian wrapped his hands around Daphnia under the surprised eyes of Juno.
"Veli!" Daphnia was surprised by this boldness. She still felt a little sore in her private garden but if Velian wanted she was ready to let him explore it again, but contrary to her expectation Velian shouted,
"Juno, get on my back and hold tightly," Hearing his words, she quickly got close to him and did the same tight lock as Aiko.
"Are you girls ready?" Velian questioned confusing both of them.
"Ready for wha-" Daphnia couldn't finish her words as she felt her legs slowly detaching from the earth.
(Levitation)
Velian muttered surprising both Juno and Daphnia.
"Flying magic!" Daphnia shouted overwhelmed by shock.
"I'm flying, I'm really flying," Usually composed Juno was also panicking.
Both of them had their eyes and mouth open wide but they didn't know it was just the start as Velian started to travel at the speed of a bird.
"Aghhhhh~ This is so fun," Overwhelmed with happiness, both Juno and Daphnia started to enjoy their short journey as they reached in less than two hours to their destination.
"As I expected, this is way more efficient than carriage but I can only carry a few," Slowly landing on the roof of the mansion, Velian released both girls who had their hair all messed up by air.
Not caring about their appearance both of them started to question him about his ability to fly.
"How did you do that? That was so cool," Juno was excited like a little child.
"Veli, what magic was that? I thought we need wings to fly in the air," Being the hardcore magic nerd, Daphnia couldn't help but chase this new knowledge.
"It's just a combined spell of both fire and wind, don't worry I will teach you how to do that," Reassuring her thirst for knowledge they quickly slipped into the mansion through a window.
"We look like thieves sneaking into the mansion like this," Right after Juno made that comment, Velian felt someone trying to attack him from behind.
"Who are you? Identify yourself," He heard a familiar voice behind him. Hearing it he slowly turned around without any hesitation.
