True King's Ecstasy
382 Julius disappearance
As the first rays of the morning sun pierced through the windows of the grand chamber, Velian emerged from a long night spent in the enemy's conquered castle.
He had successfully led his forces to victory, reclaiming another kingdom from the clutches of the opposition. Exhausted but triumphant, he returned to the warm embrace of his beloved wives and lovers with Daphnia and other girls.
It wasn't hard for him to carry all three of them, but with Aurora's help, Velian manage to reach the Kelleros Kingdom within a few hours.
The sight of his harem waiting eagerly for him brought a smile to Velian's face. Since he already told Delviny about his arrival, all of them were eagerly waiting for him.
As he walked towards them, his eyes met theirs, brimming with love and adoration. With tender kisses and affectionate caresses, he expressed his gratitude for their unwavering support during his absence.
"Sariya, I'm grateful for all the help," Daphmia key her friend after a long time and both of them hugged making Velian wondered how amazing it would feel to be in between the two milfs.
And after a few greetings, they all went inside as they knew things are not over yet.
Breathlessly, Naomi spoke, her voice filled with anticipation, "Welcome back, master. We have missed you dearly. Please, let us update you on the current status of our kingdom."
Velian nodded, his gaze shifting between the beautiful faces before him. "Girls. How fares our kingdom? Is there peace in our lands? Did anyone decide to act stupid while I was away?"
Sariya stepped forward, her voice tinged with concern. "Yes, Veli, our kingdom remains peaceful. The people have been overjoyed by your victorious return. The enemy's forces have been driven back, and order has been restored."
A frown creased Velian's forehead as he absorbed this information. "I am glad to hear that our people are safe once more. However, it seems something is troubling you. What is it, my dear?"
A hushed silence fell upon the chamber as his girls exchanged glances. Finally, a brave voice broke through the tension. "It's Julius, Veli. He has mysteriously disappeared. We have searched high and low, but there is no trace of him."
Delviny answered his question. Velian knew this already as Delviny brought it to her attention, and he knew something suspicious is going on, but with his hands filled with Valerie, he couldn't put his attention on this matter, but right now he decided to find everything about this.
Velian's expression hardened to a mix of worry and determination. "Julius? He was my most talented advisor. I cannot imagine why he would vanish without a trace. We must find him, no matter the cost."
"And also the most important prisoner!"
His girls nodded in agreement, their eyes shining with loyalty. "We have already set our best scouts on the task, Veli. We will not rest until Julius is found and brought back to you."
A surge of gratitude washed over Velian as he realized the unwavering devotion of those standing before him.
"I'm relieved I have all of you with me, I wouldn't be able to do these things all alone," All of them just shrugged their shoulders hearing his compliment.
They wanted to say he is the one who brought their potential and made them a family, but they knew if they give him a compliment he would reflect it back to them and it will become an endless conversation.
"Did you question Julie?" Velian knew they are not stupid enough to leave something so important and he was right.
Sariya looked at Delviny and she ignored her looks.
"I - I, I arrested her," Delviny said knowing Daphnia and others will scold her because Julie was not someone strange to them.
After all, he was the lover of Akiyo, Velian's younger brother and Aiko's sister.
"No she did the right thing, my stupid brother decided to take her side, but I tamed him, he is clearly hiding something from us," Aiko said as she supported Delviny.
Delviny looked at her and smiled at her which causes Aiko to show her finger showing she had her back.
'When did these two get this close?'
Velian thought, but he knew things are getting too serious for him to keep ignoring them. But he knew the most suitable witness for him to meet first wasn't Julie or anyone else.
It is Akiyo himself, who should be conflicted more than anyone. So he decided to visit him first and talk with him.
In the dimly lit room, Akiyo sat huddled on a worn-out sofa, his eyes filled with a desolate sadness.
His once radiant spirit seemed to have been overshadowed by a heavy burden. Sensing his distress, Velian, the loyal and compassionate brother, entered the room, his footsteps barely making a sound on the creaking floorboards.
"Akiyo, are you okay?" Velian said softly, concern etching lines across his face. "What troubles you so? Why do you wear this cloak of gloom?"
Akiyo glanced up, his eyes brimming with tears. "Velian, it's terrible! Delviny has arrested my beloved. She accuses her of crimes he did not commit."
Velian's brows furrowed as he took a seat beside Akiyo, his heart heavy with sympathy. "But how could this come to pass? Your lover is innocent, is she not?"
Akiyo nodded, her voice trembling with anguish. "Indeed, Velian. It is all because of Julius. He was caught in a web of deceit and betrayal, and his actions have cast this unjust shadow upon Julie, she is innocent."
Velian's eyes widened, realizing the gravity of the situation. "Akiyo, you must not blame yourself. Your love is pure, and the sins of another should not stain your heart. But what can I do to help?"
Akiyo looked at his brother with a graceful look.
"Please, release her, she didn't betray us," It was a bold claim for him, as his own sister was telling him that Julie is hiding something but out of love and care for him, Velian decided to give them another chance.
"Fine, but if I feel like Julie is lying, I'm not going to release her and I will use cruel methods to take the truth, I won't forgive her because if she's lying then she had already betrayed you,"
Velian said and asked Akiyo to follow him, so he can make sure of Julie's innocence.
