BXBX NOVEL Chapter 179 Never Ending War
"I heard about all your adventures, congratulations on your victory," Looking at the young man in front of her, who was the same age or younger than her daughter, Sariya said with a proud look on her face.
Sariya made the Cantrell territory her own land within a small amount of time by winning the trust of the people.
Most of the people in the territory were baffled by her skills and wondered why that dumb discount, didn\'t ask for her help.
Farming, animal raring, construction works, and many other industries flourished rather fast with the construction of the road as transportation started between Velian\'s real hometown and the Cantrell territory.
"Sariya, you\'ve become even more beautiful, thanks for the compliment but it\'s not me that won this war, it\'s us,"
Daphnia laughed seeing her son trying to flirt with an older woman in front of her. She couldn\'t help but feel some sort of similarity between her and Sariya.
"That\'s true, sorry for my mistake, way come inside we prepared a feast for you and others," Sariya blushed a little but she quickly hid it, as she didn\'t want to be seen like that by the commoners.
Until now, she managed to keep up her cool beauty image so running it now, felt like such a waste to her.
"Velian, are we going to take a break from war or -" Sariya decided to question what she had in her mind since she knew beating a main kingdom like the Rapidclaw would only invite more trouble.
"Unfortunately no, we are going to face many more people and that\'s why I\'m here, to make everything right and discuss your role," Velian didn\'t want to keep her in dark anymore.
Even though she is already a duchess, he wanted to officially introduce her and hold a special meeting with other people, he is going to appoint.
"That\'s what I thought," Sariya didn\'t feel the heat of war thanks to Velian and the army protecting the border, but she knew if something went wrong, everything they built with their tears and sweat will be useless.
They walked with cheers from the civilians and some merchants, some even tried to meet Velian face to face to discuss business opportunities but, they didn\'t get the chance as Juno and Lyra took precautions to prevent that from happening.
After a long walk, they managed to reach the mansion which looked a lot more developed than before with how well it was maintained including the garden which was properly lawned.
But before Velian could even enter the house, he was met with the beautiful scenery of a young girl watering the plants by the side of the main entrance of the mansion.
Daphnia also quickly identified this girl and called her hoping for the same warm welcome.
Even though they didn\'t meet a lot Daphnia considered Elda as someone rather close to her, so she actually enjoyed her company a lot.
"Elda, are you watering the plants?"
Hearing this familiar voice, she turned her head around to see the people she was early waiting for to return back.
"Auntie, Velian and Lyra," Looking at every one of them, she quickly tried to run in their direction, but she couldn\'t run for a long time.
*Bammm
She stumbled upon a rock and fell with her cute butt exposed through her maid-like clothes. Velian quickly ran and help her to clean her knees and face.
Lucky for her, she didn\'t get injured badly but, she had some blood coming out of her knee showing proof of her haste and impatience.
"Elda, don\'t run in that clothes, what are you doing?" Face palming, seeing her daughter acting like a kid, Sariya felt like she was the only one that was lagging behind her growth when compared to kids like Velian.
"I\'m sorry mother,"
"So, how are you doing? Elda, did you miss us?" Wiping her blood, Daphnia and Velian both questioned.
Elda\'s behaviour was a refreshing feeling for Velian, everyone in his group acted really competent and had rather tough personalities, but this feeble attitude of Elda also interested Velian.
He felt like protecting her no matter what because of that.
"Let\'s go inside, eat and rest, all of you deserve every comfort in this mansion," Sariya didn\'t want them to stay here any longer and treat her idiotic daughter, so she asked a servant to take her back and asked Velian and group to follow her.
They got to enjoy proper massage services, exotic foods and many more services thanks to the proper guidance of Sariya, which really surprised Velian because of some these techniques were rather familiar to him.
They are the same technique, he taught to the villagers, in the alliance so it surprised him a little but then he remembered how the road affected their daily life, so the distribution of a certain technique wasn\'t a strange thing at this point.
"Veli, you shouldn\'t have taken a massage from that random woman, she touched you in a not normal way," Daphnia complained like a real mother worried about her son\'s safety but deep down she was jealous of that random woman.
"Is that so? I was thinking about our future plans so I didn\'t really notice," They were having their dinner on the table with everyone around them looking at Velian\'s face with an interested look.
Some of the new servants saw him for the first time this close, so they were interested to see the young prodigy, who helped their duchess to defeat the vicious viscount and rescue their territory.
"Ohh! Who\'s this person you\'re talking about?" Sariya quickly interfered as she wanted quickly throw out the servant that tried to take advantage of Nikol.
"It\'s nothing serious, Sariya," Velian didn\'t want anyone losing their job over a silly mistake, so he decided to give that servant a warning and let her get away with it.
"By the way, I want to discuss about what I\'m going to do in the future," Picking up Velian\'s signal, Sariya ordered every servant to leave the room.
She didn\'t want anyone interfering or spying on them, so Naomi took the task of protecting the room when their meeting is ongoing.
"I will hold a huge banquet for the former and new nobles of every land I conquered, and publicly announce new leaderships,"
Hearing Velian\'s words, both Daphnia and Sariya got close to him to hear more details about it with interested looks.
