Chapter 122 Love And Lies

Daphnia waited for Velian to finish his training with Juno while getting ready for her big event but, suddenly what Asumi said reminded her of something,

"He knew about it enough to advise her? Does that mean he had experience before?" Daphnia was sure that he wasn't a bad boy but obviously, she got the feeling that he was hiding something from her.

"I will ask him about it before giving my answer to him, I don't want any secret between us if he's going to be my partner," She took courage and waited until his training was over.

Unaware of all this, Velian entered the house with maids trying to clean up his body with their towels, two maids were competitively wiping his body trying to win his attention.

"That's enough, girls," He entered the bath and took a quick wash before going for breakfast.

Juno went back to her training quarters since she was going to practice with some warriors after a long time with an excited face to beat them up.

Daphnia took her seat expecting Velian to come quickly since it was only them that was going to have breakfast.

"How should I ask him? Should I act as a mother or like a woman?" She heard someone's footsteps while she was thinking all this.

"Mother, good morning, you're really early today," He slowly got close to her while kissing her velvet cheeks with a gentle kiss.

"Same to you, darling," She returned the kiss without any hesitation as this was their daily routine.

"It's really boring without those two troublemakers right?" Velian spoke with a happy tone but, he noticed that Daphnia was thinking about something.

"Mother, what happened? Is there a problem?" Seeing her unfocused look, he was worried.

"Veli, I want to talk about something before I give my answer to your confession,"

"Have you ever lied to me, Veli?" Without any sugarcoating, she straightforwardly questioned him expecting him to tell the truth.

Velian looked at her with a shocked look but, he quickly gained his cool back as he decided to tell everything to her,

"I'm sorry, mother," His voice almost sounded a little shaky feeling scared about how she will react to it.

"I have to take responsibility for my actions, I won't hide anything from her anymore," Thinking about how she is going to be the most important woman in his life in future, he decided to be truthful with her.

"Indeed I have lied to you but I wasn't doing it because I don't believe you, I just didn't want you to think of me as a strange person and abandon me,"

"Mother, I have this memory of a past life and everything I developed and did to help these villagers were the result of that,"

"..."

"And do you remember when we entered that treasure cave? It wasn't a random incident, I planned everything to happen that way and it wasn't a random monster cave it was a dragon cave which belonged to a dying dragon I met in the forest, she asked me to enter it and gather something,"

"..." Hearing his words, Daphnia had her eyes and mouth wide open.

She quickly grabbed my hand with an aggressive movement,

"What did you say? You met a dragon and you entered its cave? Are you mad? You could have gotten yourself killed?" All the maids were confused about why they were fighting like this but, Velian quickly gave a sign telling all of them to leave.

*Sob

"You can't do that Veli, you can't lie about things like that? I don't mind dying for my baby, but you put yourself in danger," He was baffled by the way, she quickly disregarded his reincarnation problem and straight cared about his life.

He felt his love for her increasing more and more because of this behaviour but, he couldn't think of it for long as she grabbed his ear showing who's the mother and adult,

"You need to be punished for it, I don't really care about your other lies but I can't disregard that," It was obvious how worried she was about it.

"Mother! You don't care about my memories?" Confused, Velian asked without changing his expression. Even though Daphnia grabbed his ear, he felt no pain from it as his status was far more superior to hers.

"Well not that, I don't care but I knew that might be the case because there's no way, you can do all that if you were a normal baby in the past so it isn't a huge surprise for me,"

"No matter what memory you have, in the end, you're my cute Velian," Velian wanted to hug her and tell her how amazing of a mother she is, but he knew it wasn't the time for it as she was pissed off.

"My idiot son! I asked that question because you advised Asumi about sex positions and stuff despite having zero knowledge but looks like you were hiding an even greater secret with you," Hearing her words, Velian felt like he was really an idiot.

"Mother, I'm sorry for lying to you, can you forgive me? Can you forgive your cute son?" He looked at her directly with an enchanting look but Daphnia didn't fall for it.

"Not this time, you will be punished this time for it, you can't get away with that look," She released his ear while going back to her seat.

"I thought I would give my answer to you about your confession but no, you must be punished first,"

Velian felt satisfied after telling her everything he did but hearing that she was ready to give her answer but decided to postpone it because of his mistake, he felt sad.

"Veli, I don't mind small lies but if you really lie like this next time, I'm going to be disappointed in you, this time I will let you go because none of us really got injured and we found a huge treasure but it can't happen again,"

Velian nodded his head hearing her kind words,

"After you finish your breakfast, come and visit me in my room, I will decide my punishment there and give my answer to your confession," Daphnia left the table leaving those words with her enchanting ass swaying left and right every time she took a step.
