True King's Ecstasy

While all this was happening in the royal capital of Rapidclaw kingdom, Velian was busy with all the preparation of the ceremony to celebrate their victory. He decided to do something special in that ceremony so, the people in the city feel safe and hopeful about the future.

Most of them had no idea about Velian's real power or the alliance, even Sariya didn't know much about them.

"I'm sorry for your loss, here take this," Velian handed over a gold coin while talking with a woman who was in her middle age.

"It's okay, young master, my husband fought for the sake of our life, but I'm not worthy of this, please take it back," She was worried about keeping something so valuable with her. She might get attacked for something like that by some thugs.

Velian understood her worries so he quickly reassured her,

"Are you worried about someone attacking your family for it?" He asked looking at her surprised face. Her face was pale from all the crying and had red eyes.

"Yes, young master, I'm happy with my life so I don't want unwanted problems," She said looking at her son who was hugging her tightly.

She had a daughter who was in her teenage years hiding behind her too,

"Don't worry about it, believe me, and take it, now that, this is my city, I won't let anything happen to my citizens, it's your choice what you use this for," Velian said giving it to her.

"Young master!" She was on the verge of crying but, she quickly bowed her head and accepted his gift.

Velian handed out coins to many people, but he wasn't worried about it as he had gold coins to even fill up a whole mansion. His main purpose in handing out coins like this was to find people who would actually do something useful and productive with this coin.

He was planning to collect all those people and create a huge economical city here.

"Let's see who will actually do what I want them to do," He thought while going back after handing out gifts for all the families that lost their son or father.

Without him knowing rumours were starting to spread in the city about how generous and kind their new leader is. The people were going crazy over how he handed over gold coins without hesitating a bit.

"You heard as long as you give your best, he will treat us nicely, unlike our previous shitty nobles,"

"Apparently, our young master is a prince from another country, have you seen his face? That cannot be a face from a normal family,"

The people in the tavern were talking with each other. Even normal thugs who were just wandering around the streets were given good food in exchange for their hard labour. It became a fact that as long as you work faithfully Velian will treat them nicely.

Without knowing any of these, he was walking back to his mansion to meet Sariya to start the ceremony.

He gave a lot of beautiful-looking swords and armour to decorate the hall that was found in the cave. They were a little rusty when he found them but, he cleaned them using his flame-burning all the extra rust.

Elda, Delvi and Other girls were also helping with protection and stuff while Sariya ordered them.

"Hello, how's the work going?" He asked giving a greeting to her.

"Oh, Velian, welcome back, we were just getting ready for the ceremony," She said.

Sariya had a tired but satisfied look, she haven't done something this important in a long time so, she was happy Velian believe her.

"Good! Don't forget to wear the best dress you have for the ceremony, I have a special gift for you too," At his words, Sariya couldn't help but anticipate what it was. She wasn't the greenest person but still, her excitement couldn't stop thinking about it.

"I wanted my mother to be here too," Velian muttered which was heard by Sariya.

"Damn! This kid really loves his mother," She thought looking at his sad face.

Sariya went for a hug after noticing that no one was there to make any weird rumours, it would be horrendous for her if people get to know something like that.

"Don't worry, she must be proud of you," She didn't know that hugging him was her greatest mistake.

Velian returned her hug but his hand was on her ass unconsciously touching it. She felt conflicted because instead of feeling repulsed or angry, she actually felt happy and satisfied.

Velian didn't think much about it as, he was in his working mode but the intoxicating smell of Velian was the last hit, she wanted. Sariya felt horny from the contact as well as the smell of him.

Before Velian could realise what was happening, Elda came running with a sword in her hand.

"Motheerrrr! Motherrrrrrr! Look at this sword," She didn't notice the strangeness of the atmosphere since she was an innocent ball.

Sariya quickly released him while looking at her daughter with her blushed face,

"W-what do you want, Elda?" Her voice was shaking from the nervousness.

"Mother look at this sword! It's a mithril sword," She was feeling uneasy looking at it.

"Mithril! Where did you find this?" She panicked.

"This was in the sword collection, Velian gave us to decorate the room," Elda said while looking at Velian.

Both Sariya and Elda looked at him with questioning eyes,

"Is it really that big of a deal?" He didn't understand why they were making such a big fuss about it.

"These types of swords are rare and you really gave them to use as decoration," Sariya didnt know what to say.

"I didn't think about it, let's do this, we will give this sword as a gift to the one who performed best in this war, it will boost our soldier's morale," He suggested with his nonchalant attitude.

Both Sariya and Elda couldn't help but sigh at this,

"You know even great kings would think twice before giving things like this as gifts, yet you," Sariya didn't know how he found such valuable items.

"Haha~ it's a one-time thing, don't worry," People might think he is generous, but he really wanted to give all the extra things in his storage to save some space, in case he found something really valuable.

"Enough talking, let's get ready quickly, I can't wait to start this meeting," Velian walked into his room to change into something fancier to look like a leader for all of them.
