Chapter 176 Stubborn Brother

"How does it feel to be a slave? Going from princess to a slave, what an upgrade," With a mocking smile on her face, Delviny questioned as she could easily see her childhood self in Julie.

Julie didn't get offended by her question or felt sad. She decided to accept her weakness and be a great person from there onward since life is all about changes.

"Forget about that, Delviny, you're Velian's sister right? Is it ok to do such things?" Curious about their relationship, she questioned as they were travelling through the forest.

They were going to the Cedric viscounty to pick up her brother after her promise to not betray Velian's group and support them.

"Such things? What things?" Delviny had a small idea about what she was talking about, but still talking about it with someone else her family felt a little uncomfortable for her.

"You know, naked relationships like that,"

Looking at Julie's blushing face, Delviny knew her intentions were pure and she was just curious so she decided to answer her.

"It's nothing strange, Velian loves me and I love him, that's it, we don't care about what others say,"

Julie looked at Delviny with admiration in her eyes.

"I hope I can become like you," She whispered which didn't go unheard by Delviny.

"You like Julius?" Misunderstanding her words, Delviny questioned but Julie showed a disgusted face all of a sudden.

"Eww no, I certainly admire him and love him as a brother but more than that," Unkown to Julie, she said something rather rude. The moment she realised she fucked up, she expected Delviny to be angry but she had a smile on her face.

"Well, I don't blame you for seeing our relationship like that, if someone said I would love Velian like a man before ten years, I would react just like you but you know," Suddenly she showed a maiden-like face, which really surprised Julie.

"He's the only one for me now,"

Julie felt like she was a princess again hearing love stories like this, which she used to love as a kid.

Both of them had something in common so, it wasn't hard for them to be friends in a small amount of time.

"Doesn't it bother you him having so many girls?" Before entering the viscounty, Julie questioned one last question, which she was really curious about.

"It's not like he's keeping anything secret, we all know each other and support Velian, isn't it better to have a big family than a small one with a lot of love?"

With that answer, Julie and Delviny entered the viscounty and they were welcomed by someone unexpected.

One who welcomed them was none other than Velian. Julie had her eyes wide open seeing him, but Delviny knew he used his levitation skill to arrive.

"How?" Surprised by his presence, Julie questioned but Velian kept his finger on his mouth and showed a cheeky smile.

"It's a secret, anyway let's go, I was talking with your brother, he's stubborn, explain Jim everything," Grabbing Delviny's hand, Velian started walking while Julie followed them looking at them flirting in front of her.

'Shameless'

Julie noticed how so many people were looking at them, most of the girls looked at them with jealousy, while boys looked at Velian with jealousy. Some of them even looked purely happy for them showing how famous, they were among this group of soldiers.

"Did Viscount Cedric do something?" Worried about viscount, Julie questioned.

She didn't know whether he was a part of the faction that ruined the relationship between royalty and the commoners but still, it was her duty to search for every single detail to get a good understanding of the problem.

"Nothing too bad we can't deal with, it's just your brother is too stubborn,"

Julie wondered how her brother is doing, but seeing the nature of the city and its people, she knew things aren't going too bad for her people.

"You might think they hate us because we invaded their territory." Looking at Julie's face, Velian knew what she was thinking.

Julie also nodded her head since there was no point in hiding her real feelings.

"It's actually the opposite, they are grateful we took this city, we just had to give them some extra food and hope, they already want us to control them,"

Looking at the civilians' faces, she knew Velian wasn't lying.

"Well he is here, follow me, sorry we couldn't put him in a normal room but he's still a prisoner so no comfortable rooms for him yet," Walking along the hallway of the prison, Julie observed that most of the cells were empty.

She kept listening to Velian's words until she saw someone rather surprising behind one of the cellars.

"Ohhh! Surprised, he's a quite rude and uncultured fellow, so we had to discipline him," The person she was looking at was none other than Pete. He had bruises all over his face and body and a place face which showed his lack of blood.

"He is-" Julie had a slight idea seeing his fiery red hair, which she felt familiar with for some reason.

They kept walking after saying farewell to growling Pete, who was frowning at both Veliana and Delviny and reached the cell, they were searching for.

"Wake up, Julius, I only left you for a few minutes and you're already sleeping," Kicking the bar of the cell with a huge sound, Velian looked at the man who wore some clean clothes but his complexion didn't look any better than Pete's.

"What else do you expect me to do in this dark cell, at least bring me something to have fun with or some book to read," Rubbing his eyes, with a bored look, Julius looked at Velian but his eyes straight up went to the person next to Velian.

"Julie!"

Unknown to him, Julius shouted with happiness seeing her dear sister.

"Hello brother, looks like you're doing ok,"

Letting this brother and sister bond, Velian and Delviny sat on the bench and looked at their interaction with nostalgia seeing how similar they were but at the same time different.
