Chief's Meeting II

Daphnia was elated to hear this piece of news but at the same time, she felt a little guilty.

"He wasn't supposed to be a mere village chief, he was supposed to be an emperor of the human empire"

"With his talent, he could have been a brilliant emperor, I don't know whether telling Velian his true identity is a good or bad thing,"

Daphnia didn't know that the person in question already know this information. The only one who knew her identity being the former queen in the empire was Lyra, Delvi and Asumi. Others didn't know that they were sheltering the prince and the queen of the empire.

Asumi knew she was from a dual house and she was married to a man by the family but she didn't know that it was the imperial family.

All of them nodded to the decision and Velian stood up from his seat and went toward the Asumi,

"Elders and Aunt, Thanks for believing me and giving me this opportunity I promise I will not let down you," Velian said with a little smile.

All of them were happy to hear such words from this future powerhouse.

"Ok then that solves the second problem, going forward to the next problem is the kingdom," Asumi's face took a serious expression while talking about this topic.

"Even though we were abounded by the kingdom they won't see this alliance favourably, the moment they hear about the monster attack that happened they will send their soldiers to check the borders of the forest," She further elongated the problem.

Velian closed his eyes for a few minutes and thought about the actions he could take against the kingdom.

"We will go with the Carrot and stick method if it's come to that," Velian opened his eyes slowly while giving his opinion.

"Carrot and Stick?" All of them couldn't understand what he meant and all had confused looks.

"It's simple they won't simply go and complain to the capital about this problem mostly the noble family who is close to the village will send their soldiers to investigate, we will give them a mouthwatering deal that they won't be able to refuse," He said with a little smile.

"It's true if we can provide them something valuable even the Nobels wouldn't miss that chance but what can we provide to those greedy people," One of the chiefs ask with a doubtful look.

"We will provide them with different things that cannot be found anywhere other than this village like foods, crops, materials and speciality papers," Velian said with a playful smile.

"It pains me to bow my head to an ungrateful Nobel but it's needed, we don't have the power or people to resist against them right now," Velian thought while looking at the faces of the chiefs.

"Veli, what do you mean by special papers?" Asumi asks while feeling a little curious.

"Kuku~~ look at this," He showed them a normal paper used which is made by the pelt of the monsters.

All of them were confused by this.

"Veli, that's normal paper made with a low-rank monster hide, how can it gain the favour of nobles,"

"Well this is the normal paper used by people which is quite expensive but what if the papers which are made up of plants were introduced to the world," He said gaining surprised sounds from everyone present even the silent Daphnia was interested in this idea.

"Veli, are you sure we can find such a thing," Daphnia was the one to break the silence.

"We can mother, Don't worry it will be successful," He said looking at her.

Some of the Chiefs couldn't see the significance of this but those who had some knowledge about the changes it can bring to the world if it succeeds were mesmerised by this idea.

"Damn it, even I haven't thought about this far about these things is this child really five years old?" Asumi couldn't help but be astonished by this.

They discussed about this for a few hours and they concluded to wait until the first prototype finished to see the results of this. The meeting didn't end there as they talked about different things like the distribution of materials and control structures.

*Yawn

"You were great Veli, that was a nice meeting," Aunt Asumi said while caressing my head with her little rough hands since she is a swordsman.

"Aunt, come a little closer," Asumi did just as he told and Velian whispered to her.

"Keep eye on that last village chief, he was displeased about all the things that happened in the meeting," Velian whispered to her ear.

Daphnia was looking at all that with a neutral expression.

"If you say so Veli, I will keep a tight eye on him," Asumi agreed with him and went on her way.

Since the meeting was over and all the villagers decided to stay in this place all of them will be busy for some time. Velian looked at the sky and muttered in a soft voice that even Daphnia couldn't hear,

"*Sigh Big sister Yuvanna it will take a little time before I fulfill our promise,"

After a few hours, Daphnia also went on her way to help Asumi with her work. Velian went to see the training of the Remi and the group and congrats them on their first successful mission.

Delvi was already having a duel with Remi,

"Haha~~ Look at you all powered up but you won't be able to beat me," Delvi shouted while attacking vital spots of Remi with her wooden sword.

"Just as you expected from you, Even if I use my full power I can't even land a hit on you," Remi was astonished by their talent of Delvi.

They were sometimes insulting each other or appreciating their attacks while duelling but as expected the result was Delvi's win. Even though Remi was talented she was not close anywhere near to Delvi.

"Yo guys, Want to go a round with me too?" I shouted while looking at them with a little chuckle.

"Ehh~~Dont ask the impossible, how can we face the Young master you will beat us all," All of them said at the same time.

"Brother, you came at the right time how about we go for a round," She had a sadistic grin on her face.

Delviny was like a different person when she was on the battlefield. Normally docile and innocent sister becomes a demon when she's in the battle.

"Why not? It's a request from my cute sister," Velian took the training sword and went to the right to face Delvi.
