Chapter 279 Title annulled

"Graham. I heard a few things, but I want you to tell recount how he ended up like this." In one of the palaces of the Thera Empire, an unconscious Dennis lay in a large bed. An armored old man sat beside him with a small crown on his head. He was the king of the Thera Empire, King Edvin. Right now he had his head turned around to stare at the man in the corner of the luxurious room.

Graham immediately got on his knees, with his hand on his chest. "This servant had been incompetent, my king. Please deliver punishment for his servant." He responded with a subservient gaze. The man in bed shook his head.

"You have served this family for decades, Graham. There is no doubt in my heart that you didn't do your best to salvage the situation. I have already heard the account of your bravery. Despite being critically injured you brought the crown prince to safety."

*Sigh* "I already knew this was going to be a harsh assignment for you. It's Dennis we are talking about after all." The man looked fragile as he took the boy's hand into his own, recalling the fond memories he had with his wife. But very soon his shook his head and turned to the lead guard.

"Did this guy really try to harm the grand mage?" His expression was stern when he asked that question. This was a big diplomatic debacle. Grand mages were the powerhouse of a nation. Sneak attacking one was not much different than launching an offensive on the country itself.

Graham hesitated for a moment, nonetheless, there was no way to hide the truth. "I am afraid that's the truth, my king. I had no idea he will do something like that and before I can move, it was too late." "This idiot!!" King Edwin clenched his fist.

"Forgive this servant to be blunt my lord, but grand magus Emily is a kind-hearted woman. Had it been some other grand mage from Cylon, a broken wrist would definitely not have been enough remuneration for them." The experts at that level only respected the monarchs. A crown prince didn't mean shit on their eyes.

"I understand. We can expect a messenger from Cylon any day now. I will write a proper apology and try to contend with the situation." "I don't know if it's my place to say this, regardless my love for my country won't allow me to stay silent on this matter, my king. You must do something to discipline the prince. The nation can't pay the price for the mistakes of an individual."

Graham still held grievances against the prince. His idiocy had reached new horizons. Had it not been for Mrs. Emily, both of them would have been swatted to death by that mighty expert. "Don't worry. I have already thought about it. Dennis will no longer be the crown prince."

Graham's eyes became saucers as he stared in stupefaction. It was a very strong decision indeed, with far-reaching consequences. Then again, the disaster the boy had caused trumped anything he had done prior to this. It was only natural for the king to withdraw his title.

"Then who.." "I have not thought about it just yet. I will make a decision in time. I am not dying anytime soon. I need to give my nation a capable ruler before I pass on to my afterlife." Edwin cut the guard off with an emotional speech.

"I had let my personal feelings impress upon my decisions. But no more... He has to know that there are consequences for actions in this world. All these years I was hopeful that the title of the crown prince will make him understand the pressure on his shoulders. Alas.. the boy had only degraded after that."

Graham can see the drooping shoulders of the weak king. He was aware of what personal feelings the king was talking about. Dennis's mother had been the one true love of Edwin's life, who met an early end in her life.

He didn't disturb the melancholic man, letting him have his moment. "Huu... About that unknown expert, what can you tell me about that?" Graham took some time to organize his thoughts. "Nothing, except that I have never seen a being more powerful than that in all my life."

Edwin was taken aback by his words. This was quite an excessive assessment of the being. Though Graham was not a grand magus yet, but he was not far from that level. He had seen many outstanding beings in his life and to place that expert on top of all that, spoke volumes about its tyranny.

"Can it be a human expert in hiding?" Graham took a deep breath as a shiver ran down his spine, recalling the absolute terror he came face to face with. "Not possible. That's not the level our species can achieve, my king. It could have killed us off with only a thought. And the way he didn't care at all about our identities told me that he probably couldn't be bothered by the human nations."

"Can you tell if that individual is connected to Cylon in some way?" Graham shook his head. "Although it responded to Mrs. Emily's request, I have a strong reason to believe that it's not related to Cylon. He probably has some personal contact with the water mage, that's all."

"That's for the best." "Yes. Also, if we think about it, it doesn't make sense for Cylon's monarchy to hide such a strong individual for so long. They had faced defeat after defeat at the hands of the alliance in the last two centuries. Don't you think they would have sent that being into the battle to gain the lost grounds?"

"Well.. you seem right." Graham nodded his head finding Edwin lost in thought. "It might be a fully grown dragon, my king. I can't think of any other being that holds such boundless might." "Hmm.. a grown Dragon?"

"Yeah... Dragons were the ones who took the least loss in the battle of the species. Only half of them took part, the rest choosing to never leave their homeworld. It's only natural that more of them are now making their way to our world since there is virtually no power to stop them."

Edwin only gave a slight nod. "You are right. Then again, we are not in a position to look into such huge matters." Graham agreed with the judgment. At the moment humans were even struggling to survive as a species. They had neither the time nor the energy to deal with the matters of such importance.

"Also, I think I should send a personal thanks to Mrs. Emily." Graham gladly agreed. "Yes. Mrs. Emily could have easily let us suffer our deaths at the hands of the being. And considering its might, we could have barely been able to do anything about it. Yet, she had shown a great heart and saved our lives, in the benefit of our race."

"I will do that whenever I meet the lady personally. For now, you can rest as well. I will deal with the fallout." Edwin got to his feet, walking over and patting Graham's shoulders before taking his leave. The lead guard too closed the door behind him, he himself had not fully recovered from his injuries.

"Don't be shy, sisters. Have as much as you possibly can, our little master will be a rich guy very soon hahahaha.." Talia was the one who was most excited at the idea of a dinner together. She ordered the dishes and alcohol with impunity.

Compared to her Emma and Dorothea were rather reserved. Ryu realized that and caressed both their faces. "It's okay, ladies. No need to be shy about it." More than the meals, these women were more concerned because of the gazes of the people around them.

As they had expected, their dresses were too eye-catching and a number of them had asked where they got them from. The women had to answer all of them with red faces. Although they only received compliments from people in the streets, both of them were not used to this many eyeballs.

At his behest and a few glasses of alcohol, they had finally done away with their apprehension. The night darkened while their dinner continued. "Are you ready, sisters?" Talia had them book a room as well, excited to be involved with Ryu in the presence of her elder sisters.

Both the ladies knew what Talia was referring to and their red faces blushed even further. But Ryu seems to have some other plan because once the three females turned their heads to him, the boy only laughed in response.

"What's the hurry. We can begin here itself." His hand stroked Emma's head. She had been the one who was the most embarrassed of her situation, hence he wanted to increase the difficulty even further for the redhead.

His hands carefully untied her lacy bra and panties, leaving her naked under her almost transparent dress. Now that each one of them was horny, there was no need to hide the assets. It was amply clear for the lady, what the boy required her to do.

Dorothea and Talia chuckled at the exasperated expression of the woman. She swept her hair back and was about to dive down into his crotch when Ryu held her shoulders midway. As she stared at the boy in confusion, his face came close to her's and kissed her lips.

The other two ladies gasped and Emma herself was left stunned as her intoxicated brain took longer to process the information. Naturally, once it realized that she was being kissed right under the public eye by someone other than her husband, she tried to resist albeit in futility.

Ryu took advantage of her drunk state to force his tongue in her mouth, all the while maintaining a suction pressure on his rapidly swelling lips. "mhhh.. nnnghhhh!!" Sweet saliva flowed into Emma's mouth, intoxicating her even further.

"I love you... Emma!!" With her subservient eyes, the lady had no idea how to respond to this transgression. "Will you birth a child for me?" Had this been any other situation, Ryu's question would have only evoked laughter from the redhead. But maybe it was because she was under the influence of alcohol, or the boy's voice was too compelling, or else a combination of both these factors, that led her to nod her face.

Ryu smiled in glee. Emma had been the most tricky one to handle. She is someone who had braved so many depravities just to help her husband. It was not an easy task to get her to fall for him. Even now, all she had done was to let him kiss her in the capacity of her master, that's all.

Yet, even this was a great achievement for Ryu, since she practically consented to it.

To avoid embarrassing herself even further, Emma chose to pull his pants down and took his little brother into her mouth. Meanwhile, Ryu took hold of her tits and crushed them in shapes.

How can Talia remain quiet? She sidestepped Dorothea and kneeled behind Emma's raised eyes without caring about the multitude of gazes trained on them. "Which one should I do, master?" "Do her pussy." Ryu loved this quirky woman, always eager to serve him in various ways.

Talia's fingers traveled to the depths of the pink cunt, violating it with her tongue at the same time. "Mhhh..!" *Paagh" Emma's thighs squirmed in pleasure, causing Ryu to slap her ass. She glared at his face with grievances in her eyes. She looked cute like a scowling cat, especially with her lips around his cock.

Ryu got to his feet, picked up Emma, and had her place her right leg on the table. Talia helped his dick to maneuver inside her vagina. Holding her slender waist, he kissed her neck and slowly forced himself inside her. Emma's eyes closed as pleasure spread to each part of her body.
