BXBX NOVEL Chapter 209 Clue
"Take it away from me," Daphnia's face was disfigured looking at Velian's charred hand, which Delcomy brought back.
Daphnia felt like her whole body was going crazy seeing it, even though she knew Velian's hand might regenerate, it didn't reduce the pain she felt seeing Velian's burned hand.
"Sariya, can you please take her back to the room? Maybe, she needs some rest, "Veliam requested seeing her mother trying to throw a tantrum.
Sariya bowed her head and quickly grabbed Daphnia's hand and dragged her back to her room, while Elda also followed them unable to watch this gruesome scenery.
That was the first time she saw a burned human hand, and that being Velian's hand affected her more than she expected negatively.
"So this is my hand that looks like a demon hand?" Taking it, Velian carefully observed and saw how every cell in it was dead.
"Very strange!"
No matter how much he tried he couldn't find that black smoke and the voice, which affected him when he was fighting this thing so he decided to ask about it from Luna.
"Luna, use appraisal on this hand," He said in his mind, but the result was disappointing as it was just a burned meat chunk.
"If Naomi didn't cut my hand, it would have filly taken my body," He still couldn't believe how easily the black thing tried to devour his hand.
He turned to his sister Delviny, who stood by his side with a solemn expression on her face.
"Do you have any leads on what caused this?" he asked, his voice laced with frustration at not knowing what this danger was.
Delviny shook her head, her eyes downcast.
"I'm sorry, Velian. I've been following every lead I can, but so far, I've come up empty-handed."
Velian clenched his fist, feeling a surge of anger wash over him because he was careless all this time thinking he was powerful enough to deal with anything that might come in future.
He couldn't believe that something had taken his corrupted hand and vanished without a trace. It was a valuable piece of information, one that could potentially be used to harm others if it fell into the wrong hands.
"What is this power? Why did that prime minister have it?" Velian questioned himself, and then remembered that there was one person he know that possess the ability of this.
"Andriya Sacredmore! We should capture her," Looking at Delviny, he muttered.
He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down. He knew that getting angry wouldn't solve anything. He needed to focus on finding some clues and putting an end to whoever was responsible for this incident.
"Alright," he said, his voice firm.
"We need to keep searching. Check with all our contacts, to see if anyone has heard anything. We'll leave no stone unturned until we find my hand."
Delviny nodded, a determined look on her face. "I won't stop until we find it, Velian," she said, her voice filled with conviction.
Velian smiled at his sister, grateful for her support. Together, they would find his missing hand and put an end to this mystery once and for all. He flexed his left-hand fingers, ready to take on whatever challenges lay ahead.
But before Delviny left she left another piece of information, that might possibly lead to solving this mystery.
"Luck Bastio, a former commander of the Rpaidclaw army,"
As soon as Delviny left, Veliak tried to remember him, since he had all the names and details of previous important figures of this kingdom stored in his mind.
"Hmm~ so he wasn't someone special, B rank is good, but not something great," Velian couldn't believe how he got beat up by a B-ranked person.
"Does that mean black thing can increase their rank? But that demon was weak, when it tried to corrupt me only, I felt overwhelmed," Veliam wondered about everything that was happening to him and try to sort them out.
"Looks like I need to do some questioning and find that prime minister or Andriya,"
Thinking about all these things, he looked at Naomi, who was looking at him with her eyes open after the long rest she had.
"Naomi, thank you for rescuing me," Lying on the bed beside her, Veliam started caressing her face while looking at her violet eyes with care and love.
"Don't thank me, master, This is the first time I did that for you, but you rescued me countless times and took me in when I was just a powerless girl," Naomi enjoyed the warmth after a long time.
Since the first attack and rebellion, Naomi never took a break from her work, so this was a good chance for her to rest a little.
"Don't call me master, how many times should I tell you this? We are lovers, so use my name,"
Naomi looked a little embarrassed but, she opened her mouth and said in a cute tone.
"Veli,"
It sent shivers through Velian's spine because of how cute and unexpected her cute powers are, but he quickly calmed down and kissed her.
"I'm glad, you're not hurt,"
The room was quiet, except for the soft hum of Naomi as she enjoyed being embraced by Veliam after a long time, and this none carnal pleasure she felt fulfilled her heart and made her feel like she was in heaven.
Naomi's hand was warm in his chest, and he couldn't resist the urge to draw her closer. She didn't resist, and soon they were lying side by side, their bodies pressed together without any space for air to enter and bother them.
"I feel like I want to stay like this forever," Naomi muttered to which Vekian reacted with a smile and answered.
"We will be like this forever, nothing can separate us, I won't let anything disturb our peace,"
Others who came to visit Veliam and Naomi looked at this heartwarming scene with a smile on their face but at the same time, they felt weird seeing their lover hugging another girl.
*Tsk
"Maybe, I should break my leg," Delviny muttered in a joking manner, but jealousy was apparent on her face, which caused Elda to laugh.
"Shall we join them?" Even before others could answer, she pushed everyone causing most of them to enter the room without even having a chance to react.
"Damn it, Elda," Delviny said but deep down, she was happy about this development.
