True King's Ecstasy

Velian and Daphnia were satisfied to sleep with their family after a long time. They got welcomed nicely by Delviny and Asumi right after they returned to the village.

"Aunt, are you sure about what you said to us yesterday?" Velian asks looking at Asumi with a serious expression.

"I investigated his personality and past with the help of their villagers, it was pretty awful including his reputation and behaviour," Asumi said while looking at Velian and Daphnia simultaneously.

Right after Daphnia and Velian came to the village Asumi immediately told them about what she found because it was Velian who said her to find out about him.

Velian, Daphnia, Delviny and Lyra and the old lady village chief who supported us were present for this secret meeting. The name of the old lady was Charlotte despite calling her old lady she was in her late forties due to the harsh living nature of their village she looks way more older than her age. She was greatly influenced by the positive changes we brought to her people and her own family and she decided to work with us to make this alliance more prosperous. The other reason was she was greatly impressed by the young man who bravely fought with monsters to protect them from any harm. His brave figure was still in her memories even to this day.

"To tell you the truth, I was angry with him when he lashed out the request to keep the alliance but since Asumi asked me to stay calm I didn't lash out," She showed an irritated look while talking about that man.

"What did he do in his previous village Asumi?" Daphnia wanted to know all his wrongdoings.

Asumi showed an uncomfortable look while looking at Lyra and Delvi and especially at Velian while struggling to answer her question,

"I don't know if this is appropriate to talk with all these children present but since you, all should know this I'll tell you,"

"Veli, you remember right the man that voted against the alliance? His name is Oswald and he acted as the village chief in that village for 5 or 6 years, I guess he has a power level of D or C rank taking his age as a factor, Since Velian told me to be cautious of him I decided to dig some information about him and It was a disaster, that man is corrupted to the core, he provides loans with huge deficits and forces girls to sleep with him and one village girl told me he killed her husband purposely by sending him to kill a monster which was above their league to get her," Asumi shared this information with the pure disgust in her face.

All of those who were present in the meeting went from disgust to anger from hearing all the atrocities done by this man.

"Baby, you might not know about forcing girls and all this since you're still small but just think of it as the worse thing that a man can do," Daphnia said thinking that Velian was clueless about all this because he was still a young man. All the others also nodded and looked at the young man.

Velian didn't want to argue with them because he had more important matters to deal with right now,

"Should we expose his crimes to the other villagers and kill him?" Delviny was the one to break the silence

"No sister, if we kill him right now we won't know whether he did all this alone or with the help of other people, I think first we should observe him and should not let him do the forcing thing anymore," Velian said closing his eyes while tapping the desk.

"Yeah, I think it's more sensible to eradicate filth by their root other than just plucking leaves but who can always follow that man," Asumi agreed with Velian's idea.

"I'll order the elites to keep an eye on him," Delvi suggested with an angry look.

"That's the first matter we wanted to discuss in this secret meeting and we will talk about the other matter when other chiefs also come,"

Asumi sent a message asking others to come to discuss about the matter which keeps bothering the village after the monster outbreak. It took one hour for all of them to come to the meeting hall, including Oswald.

"I thank all of you for coming here on short notice," Asumi said while showing a thankful look hiding her bloodlust.

"What happened Village chief? Why did you ask us to assemble here?" One of them questioned her.

"All of you might know that since a few days ago we experienced a few problems related to bandit attacks, As former village leaders, I asked you to come here because I wanted to hear your ideas and how should we deal with them,"

"First of all the identity of the bandits are unknown to us, most of our farms were looted by them and the day before yesterday our granary was attacked," She said with a serious expression.

All of those who were present here knew all this but they were helpless since they had no real power. Delvi listened to all this with great attention.

"I will deal with it with our forces don't worry about the bandit problem," Velian said while showing a confident look which reassured all those who were present.

"Actually I decided to give all my village authority to Asumi and Young master, I think I'm too incompetent and old to help you guys anymore since you guys improved this village this much without our help," The old man said while giving a subtle smile.

All the others also decided to retire from their position because they felt they are not needed and were too incompetent to lead this village anymore without any hostility except one person who was the target of disgust and bloodlust of many presents in the meeting room.

"Don't joke with me, I will not give my position to a kid who hasn't even aged half as me," Oswald threw a tantrum and quickly left the meeting room.

Velian looked at him silently,

"Don't worry Oswald, You will lose everything including your life,"
