Chapter 381 Daphnia's Regrets
All of them came out of the bath after a few hours and the maids couldn't help but wonder what happened in the bath, because all the girls had flushed faces, including Aurora.
"Darling! Do you feel uncomfortable? My mana should be inside your body," Velian asked as he patted Aurora's back.
Normally, he would have gone for the head, but right now she looked like a teen so he decided to treat her like one.
"No Daddy! But I have something to do, so I will go now," She said and hugged Velian before leaving.
She purposefully made her breasts touch Velian's chest, to see his reaction but seeing him not reacting to her, unlike the other girls she couldn't help but release a disappointed sigh.
"Fine! But don't good too far," Leaving those words, he left with the other girls but Celian easily noticed Daphnia's face filled with regret.
"Mother, why do you look upset? Did I do anything wrong?" Velian asked to confirm.
He had a slight idea of what caused this, but he still decided to ask.
"Veli! I'm sorry, I shouldn't have done all that in front of our daughter," Her face was blushing like a rose, just by remembering how she acted like a crazy slut.
She still remembered how she even shook her hips, looking at Aurora, who was attentively looking at her.
*Sigh
"Mother, we have already given up those useless restraints that held us back, no need to worry, she is a dragon, and our daughter, she won't think like that," Velian said and looked at others.
"All of you! No need to worry about useless things, no matter where or when, if you want me, just say the word, and I will do it with you even," They were impressed by how flexible Velian was.
Even Lucy was surprised because the succubus race won't do this type of thing because even they had their limits.
'I need to join this family, but I need permission from the demon queen'
Lucy thought and she formed her own plans to make sure the demon queen will understand how great Velian was.
But right now, they had another problem.
"Lucy, it's too late for us to stop the demon lord's revival," Velian said looking at Lucy, who was still holding her bath towel.
"You need to make sure, the demon queen knows about this because as soon as he gets his peers and powers back, his first aim will be the throne, not humans,"
Lucy's towel fell as soon as she heard those words. Her red hue disappeared and it got replaced by a place look, but Velian asked her to calm down.
"We have time, the competition just started, and it will take at least one week to finish if other kingdoms put some resistance, so don't worry, send a messenger right now,"
Velian thought about personally going there to meet this demon queen, but he decided not to because he had a lot of things to do there.
While talking they went back to their rooms and changed their clothes quickly, because Velian was going to visit the citizen of this ruined kingdom to show them, that they are not abandoned.
The ruined kingdom and its people stretched before Velian, its once grand architecture was now reduced to crumbling ruins by the battle that took place.
"Well, this is bad! I didn't expect this much damage," Even Velian knew if he brought some workers from his kingdom, this kingdom would take at least half of the year to fully rebuild.
He stood at the heart of it all, with his loyal companions, Daphnia and Juno, by his side. The air hung heavy with despair, and the people, once vibrant and full of life, now moved as if they were lifeless shells.
Velian, his eyes filled with determination, approached one of the motionless figures, his voice resolute yet convincing.
"Everyone! Listen," he said, his words echoing through the desolate streets. "You can't stay like this forever! I know it must be hard right now not having anyone to rely on,"
"Believe in me, for I will make things right for you all."
The figure, with vacant eyes, turned to face Velian, seemingly devoid of any hope. "Who are you?" it whispered, its voice a mere whisper carried by the wind.
"I am Velian Keller, and I am here to bring change," he replied, his voice filled with a quiet intensity. "I understand your pain, your suffering, but we must move forward. We must forge a new path together."
Daphnia stepped forward, her eyes shining with compassion.
"He speaks the truth, we won't abandon any of you, but we need your support," she said, her voice carrying a warmth that seemed to touch the soul. "Velian has the power to restore this kingdom, to rebuild what has been lost."
Juno, ever stoic, nodded in agreement. "We cannot change the past, but we can shape the future," he stated firmly, his voice commanding attention. "Together, we can create a better world."
Velian turned to face the lifeless crowd, his gaze filled with determination. "Forget the despair that lingers in your hearts," he urged, his voice rising above the silence. "Embrace the hope that I offer, for I promise you, I will not rest until this kingdom stands proud once more."
The people stared at him, their eyes slowly filling with a glimmer of hope. They began to stir, as if awakening from a deep slumber. Fragments of life began to return to their faces, and whispers of optimism spread through the air.
But not all of them were convinced. Most women believed in Velian because of his charm against the opposite sex, but the single men and those who worked for the army decided not to do anything useless.
"What a lie! I'm out of here," Some people went away, which caused Daphnia to worry but Velian asked her not to worry too much because as long as they can bring the change people will be attracted to them automatically.
So they had to start the work without only relying on the mouth and words.
