Chapter 114 Return

Velian POV

It was rather hard to leave all the girls in the city but, I had to visit my mother once in a while and observe the alliance, I wanted to bring her with me to the city but for all of that, I needed her permission.

*Thud

Juno hit her head on the carriage roof since she was sitting on my lap,

"Road is too rough, I should probably reconstruct it," I said looking at Juno who was touching her head with a pained look.

"Yeah, it won't be good for our military or merchants, if the road is like this," Juno answered me.

She had her face reddened because of our position, at first when I asked her to come and sit with me, she hesitated a bit but, remembering she had done worse Juno did as I told her,

"Are you okay? Does it hurt?" I asked her while patting her head. It was rather easy for me to guess her mood because of her tail and ears, normally when she's happy Juno always shakes her tail.

"It doesn't, you know right? I'm a fully trained warrior, do you think I would get hurt by such a simple thing?" She was lying, I knew it was painful for her.

"Ok! Ok! So did you decide whether you want to be with me? What did the old man say about it?" I was rather curious about it, at this point even if she said no, I would do everything to convince her. She is already sitting on my lap with a happy expression on her face so it wasn't hard to guess her answer but, still, I didn't understand why she was hesitating to accept me.

"Hmm~ what do you think my answer will be?" She wanted to tease me, but I reversed it and teased her.

"You know I have this kitten that I'm obsessed with, No matter what I want to make her mine, I want to take care of her," I whispered in her ears, since beast people were sensitive in their ears and tail, it was a rather extreme stimulation for her.

"Velian~" She had her cheeks blushed and her eyes were already drunken with happiness.

*Phew

I blew on her ears breaking her mood, I was rather inclined toward having sex in the carriage but, I didn't want to do it right now, with the carriage driver in front of us,

Even if he wasn't paying attention, I didn't want anyone to hear the moaning voice of my girls.

Talking about other girls, Elda and Sariya cried a lot on the day of our departure but, my sister always had her uncaring and cold look but deep down, I knew she is going to miss me.

"Master, how long are we going to stay in the alliance? I don't think those humans will let us rest," Juno was worried about others. She knew that war is our only option now that we attacked them.

"Not too long, I just want to see my mother and meet other for a bit, then we will go back,"

"Juno, I'm not going to stop this campaign, you know now that our whole continent is at war, if we don't take the initiative we will get eaten by someone more powerful than us," I remembered my home town or the place that was supposed to be my home town.

I knew that the empire is on a continuous campaign of attacking other kingdoms but, honestly I had no idea what their end goal was.

"Empire will keep these kingdoms busy for a while, in the meantime, we should gather resources as much as we can, unlike other leaders, I don't plan to collect only humans,"

"It doesn't matter even if it's a demon or a monster, if it can be a help to us, I will protect it," At my words, Juno nodded her head.

"I know if not for you, we would have been already dead, my service is always with you, but if you want anything don't hesitate to tell me, and I will help you with my everything," Juno snuggled into my arms like a cute kitten.

Honestly, even though she was a tiger-kin, I had my doubt about it because most of the time when she's with me, instead of acting aggressively like they were supposed, she acts like this.

"Looks like you already accepted me," I said with a little smug smile.

"Idiot! Otherwise, I wouldn't act like this," I felt like taking here right here but, I patiently waited until the right time.

With our continuous travelling, it took us only two nights to arrive at the alliance, it wasn't a great distance but honestly, the carriage was too slow.

I felt like using my skill (Levitation) to go there, but I wanted to see the road with my naked eyes to decide what's there to improve and the conclusion I came up with was everything.

"Tsk~ too rough, roads are not even, monsters everywhere, weeds and some dangerous plants are everywhere, this project will be harder than I thought," I thought remembering my whole trip here. It would have been externally boring if not for Juno being with me.

I looked at the huge wall that I helped them to build, they had done a lot of modifications to it but it still had its initial design.

*Sigh

"It feels good to be back here, even though this was supposed to be a small village, we build this massive town with the help of everyone," I said feeling nostalgic.

"Yeah, if I didn't steal from you on that day, we wouldn't have met, truly this is a special place," Juno said looking at me.

I saw two guards protecting the gate with their sharp spears pointing at the sky.

"Stop! Who are you?" They couldn't identify us at first, but after a few minutes, both of them had their eyes wide open.

"Young master, you're back," One of the guards said giving me a strange look. I couldn't exactly remember them since there were a lot of people that I and aunt used to train together, but I smiled at them pretending that I know them.

I closed my eyes while enjoying this warmth and a slight breeze that brought my childhood memories back, then I opened them again and looked seriously towards the big black gate in front of me,

"I'm back, mother"
