?"Isn''t that enough to? Shall we get into the real business?"
It had been a few hours since Julie and Julius started talking. At first, Velian thought about waiting since he sympathised with their situation but they kept talking and talking without even taking a break.
"Ohhh! I''m sorry, we had a lot to catch up on," Julie said with a cute little smile.
"So Julius, what is your answer?"
Velian questioned without dying things anymore. He was running out of time. Veliaj had to make things right in the Rapidw kingdom before the empire and other kingdoms start acting so, he didn''t really have time for chit-chats like this.
"You rescued my sister because of my behaviour? But what is so interesting about me?" Confused about why Velian didn''t kill them but instead decided to recruit them to his side, Julius questioned with a ratherplicated face after hearing the full story.
Velian looked at him with narrowed eyes and answered.
"Don''t worry, it''s nothing like your sister said, she''s fantasising things, I''m not into dudes," He knew what Julie said. Because even Julie couldn''t think of anything else that is worthy enough of her brother, Velian wants to do all these extra tasks.
As soon as he said that, Julius sighed feeling rxed.
"I thought my virginity is in danger," He whispered under his breath.
''Damn it, can''t I kill this brother and sister duo right now?''
Looking at Delviny, Velian thought to which she alsoughed with her mouth closed.
"I decided to help you because of how good your management ideas are, if you were just a goodmander or fighter, I would have probably killed you," Julius opened his eyes wide hearing Velian''s words.
"I found your notes and other things in your room, and I like your ideas, I need more people with skills like you,"
He carefully listened to Velian''s words.
"Your father was powerless to protect the kingdom, to be exact, he was stupid enough to get poisoned," As soon as Velian said those words, both Julie and Julius jumped from their position with an aggressive look.
"What?"
"Yes! He was poisoned but it''s not a liquid poison, even I don''t know what this poison is but, believe me, when I say, I hate this poison more than any of you do,"
Velian said clenching his hands remembering the only dragon, he met in his journeys.
"Who? I don''t understand, I thought father went insane because he failed to defeat you guys in the battle,"
Julius questioned while holding onto the bars with a questioning look.
"I don''t know why but your prime minister is the one responsible for that, I saw him using that poison on your father when we went to his room, but lucky for me, he didn''t notice us,"
Julie''s eyes shot up as soon as she heard those words.
"No way, uncle won''t do such things," She started going through the three stages of grief.<novelnext></novelnext>
Julie started denying the ims a bit unexpectedly, Julius didn''t do any of that as he looked like he had some kind of a great revtion.
"Do you know where he is now?" Julius questioned.
"Most of the nobles are either hiding or supporting us, but I don''t have any n to call them nobles from here onward,"
Velian straightforwardly said that he was going to destroy their kingdom. He said his ns of making the Rapidw kingdom a highly developed central marketce for the wholend.
"So, the name Rapidw won''t exist anymore?" With a sad look in their eyes, both Julius and Julie questioned.
"No, it will, but it won''t be Rapidw kingdom anymore,"
Velian gave them no choice. It was mostly either surrendering or dying for both of them.
"I-"
Julius tried to tell Velian something but, he quickly disturbed his words.
"Don''t be a fool, Julius, you and your sister have a great future under me, forget about useless things like fame and power and join me,"
Julie looked at her brother, who was conflicted about this. She felt bad for him but the more she thought about it, this proposal felt like something really advantageous for them.
"Brother, ept it," Julie didn''t want to force her brother to do it, so she asked in a requesting manner.
*Sigh
"I hope you will stick by your promise and help us, we don''t want to be ves," Julius'' main worry was the credibility of this promise but having no option, he decided to go along.
"Sweet, then for our new friendship," With a happy smile, Velian gave his hand for a shake.
Julius also cautiously epted it, while thinking about what is going to happen from now on.
"Sister, take him out of the cell and give him a nice room for now, tomorrow he will go back to the kingdom and publicly announce his support to us,"
Leaving those words with them, Velian left the room. He spent the rest of the day with soldiers and other important figures trying to figure out what to do with them and finding new people that are promising.
Unknown to him, Velian became one of the most powerful figures in thend in both physical power as well as a military power. He only had to conquer the market to be a giant in economy and trade.
While, Velian''s safe ce, his new kingdom is slowly rising in power over existing kingdoms like Montero and the Union of Dukas, they noticed this new threat and decided to face it Sooner orter before it bes an uncontroble force.
The sacredmore empire also started acting under Andriya''s order to rescue their leader and new emperor with the expectation of gaming morend.
Even though Velian finished one war, he still couldn''t rx because of how hectic the situation is.
The only thing he could findfort in was thepany of his girls. He really enjoyed spending time with them but everything good muste to an end so the new era with Velian as a powerhouse started with the wholend enveloping in more mes of war.
