Chapter 13 Visiting Aunt

Velian and his mother were walking holding hands to Aunt Asumi's Home. Zion village is a small village situated near the Great Calamity Forest. This village belongs to the Rapidclaw kingdom but it's almost forsaken by the kingdom and relevant authorities since this village is situated near the great calamity forest there are frequent monster attacks but since we came here Mother and Aunt Asumi has been taking care of that problem. Monsters who come to the village are low-rank monsters like goblins, slimes, cockatrices and some low-rank undead creatures. Sometimes it is like a double-edged sword, Appearance of the monster can be useful for their resources as well as dangerous. Zion village has 90 - 100 villagers most of them being elders and females and children. Most healthy males are either dead or have gone to the capital to find a proper job. Among 90 villagers only 15 healthy middle ages men are there.

Since this is a forsaken place by the kingdom it is the perfect place for our family to avoid the empirical dogs.

The house we are going to is Aunt Asumiko's House. She is the village chief as well as the adventuring partner of the Daphnia but unlike Daphnia, she is a B-rank swordsman. She is 3 years younger than Daphnia and has a daughter one year younger than Velian and a son 3 years younger. Her husband is a B-rank healing mage. I heard during the adventuring days her husband fell in love with her but she refused to marry him at last despite being a healing mage he tried to fight with a B-rank monster for her sake there he got injured but Daphnia saved him and then Aunt Asumiko and he decided to date for few months until Daphnia had to leave the party for her marriage. They also quit adventuring and came to this village and now they have two children.

Daphnia knocked on the door of a small one-story house.

Asumiko POV

While I was cooking breakfast for Akiyo and Aiko, I heard a knocking sound on our door so I went to check and open the door to my surprise Big sister Nia and Little Veli were standing at the doorstep.

"Sister Nia, what brings you here today and Little Veli is also here," I said while caressing the little angel's head.

"Veli wanted to visit his aunt and friends, I also wanted to see you and ask about Delviny," Daphnia said while looking a little sad.

"Come in make yourself at home, I just finished making breakfast do you guys want some?" I asked while going to the kitchen.

"Thanks, Asumi but we're already full," Daphnia said

"Aunty, where is Aiko?" Velian asked while searching for that girl.

"She must be still sleeping wait I'll go and wake her up," I said and turn to go to her room but I suddenly felt a small hand holding my hand

"Aunt, Let me go I'll wake her up," Velian said while looking up. I agreed with him and let him go to Aiko's room. This kid sure is extraordinary I can feel it from his aura it carries an innocent and gentleness at the same time I can feel something dangerous when I look at him. He was injured when he first came to this village and I was terrified whether something will happen to him but contrary to our worries the next day he woke up as if nothing happened from that day onward I consider him to be extraordinary but despite all that I treat him like my own son you could say he is closer to me than my son. Well in future he can be my son-in-law. I felt happy just by imaging it. I turned to Sister Nia and looked at her worried face and asked,

"Nia, What happened? Why do you look so sad?"

"It's about Delvi, I think she still hasn't recovered from the trauma she got that day, she is practising day and night she is overdoing it. Can you ask her to not overdo it" Daphnia said

"She already learnt all my sword techniques, Nia I don't know what is up with this new generation. Delvi is already a C rank swordsman" I said

"After her awakening, she is been trying a new thing I asked what she's doing and do you know what she said?" I asked while looking at Sister Nia.

"She said she's going to be a Magic Swordsman, I almost fainted hearing that," I said

"Magic swordsman! Isn't it the hardest thing to achieve, Wait! how can she know about magic swordsman only 5 or 6 people achieved that in the human race" Daphnia asked

"And do you know who gave her the idea to be the magic swordsman, It was Velian," I said while looking at Aiko's room

"I don't know what will happen in the future," Daphnia said while sitting on a chair.

Meanwhile, Velian was looking at a black-haired girl who is sleeping like a log on her bed.
