The Throne Room. It was a small spare room situated in the middle of Yami's compound. As the local king in town, Yami ordered his underlings to renovate this room and turn it into appropriate for his 'royal status'.
Although it sounded so majestic, the Throne Room was only composed of 2 thin and long pillars with intricate dragon designs carved into them, and a makeshift red carpet made with red clothes sewn into each other, laid between the 2 wooden pillars. To make the appearance of the room cooler, Yami strapped torches on the pillars and some on the walls, illuminating the room.
Situated in the middle of the room was a small platform with a few steps and an intricate wooden armchair in the middle.
Yami settled himself into the seat and stared at the door of the Throne Room in anticipation.
Soon, his excitement rose as the door was slowly pushed open. Then, 2 figures stepped in.
Blood Seeking Monster and Vicious Scholar.
Both of them slowly approached the Royal Seat, their footsteps soft.
"Boss, the Brash Gang is no more. Now, we're the owners of this town." Vicious Scholar stated, his voice laced with slight excitement.
The Blood Seeking Monster nodded, looking excited as well.
It was true that both of them had considerable strength. But, they knew that their strength was not enough to be the overlords of this small town. If not for Yami killing the high-rank members of the Brash Gang, The Devil Gang would not be able to destroy the Brash Gang so easily.
"That's great. Your efforts are enough to be praised. But, where's my present?" Yami clapped a few times before looking around.
The girl was not with them.
"Haha. I knew the Boss' going to respond this way. I won, Monster." said Vicious Scholar as he looked at Blood Seeking Monster.
Blood Seeking Monster didn't respond and only turn to the door.
"Bring the girl in!"
At his words, 2 gang members dragged a figure with a sack covering her head inside the Throne Room. The figure was resisting with all her might but to no avail.
"Here's the girl, Boss." The 2 underlings threw the girl in front of Yami before saluting, placing their clenched fists on their chests before leaving.
"Not bad. Her body is decent enough for my standards. You did a fine job, vice-leaders." Yami greedily looked at the distressed girl in front of him.
He stood up and descended the platform.
"Girl, show me your face."
Yami stretched his arm forward, grabbing the sack and taking it off.
"Good! Good! This one suits my taste!" Merry laughter escaped Yami's mouth as he indulged in the girl's delicate appearance.
"Y-you won't get away with this!" screamed the girl as she glared at Yami.
Though she tried to act threatening, this made her more charming to Yami.
Her delicate face looked so beautiful and cute at the same time. No matter her expression, she would never look bad or ugly.
Her body's proportions were good as well. Through her expensive-looking clothes, Yami could infer her breasts weren't too big or small. Her clothes tightly hugged her petite body, accentuating her figure even more.
Yami couldn't wait to devour her wholly. Make her corrupted and be his plaything.
"Ah, what a wonderful world."
Suddenly, Yami's thoughts were broken by Vicious Scholar.
"Boss, if I'm not wrong, this girl might be a daughter of some noble family or official. Doing her will surely cause us a lot of trouble." reminded Vicious Scholar, his voice was soft and filled with worry.
With a stoic face, Yami turned to look at Vicious Scholar. He stepped forward and kicked.
Bang!
Caught off guard, Vicious Scholar's body was thrown to the back of the Throne Room, his expression contorted from pain as he clutched his stomach.
"Know your place, fool." Yami's voice was cold as he continued,
"Did you think that you have the right to test me? With one glance, anyone could tell this girl is from a prestigious family, and yet you dare to bring the girl to me?" Yami walked towards the aching Vicious Scholar, his footsteps steady and heavy.
"Since this is your first mistake, I would let you off with a warning. Don't disappoint me again, Scholar." Yami looked down at Vicious Scholar on the ground and sneered.
He raised his right foot and smashed down, hitting Vicious Scholar's head, and making him unconscious.
"Deserved." Blood Seeking Monster gloated at the sight of beaten Vicious Scholar.
To him, testing Devil Yami if he would go against lowly officials was nonsense.
The moment Yami instructed the underlings to build a Throne Room for him was the moment Yami showed his stance. He would fight even if the Shogun was in front of him.
After all, the concept of King and Throne came from another continent and Kings were the rulers of Kingdoms.
In a sense, Yami, the local king, was challenging the Shogu's authority.
Fortunately, Vicious Scholar already arranged everything. The underlings that renovated the room and the servants in this compound had families they loved. This made sure that they wouldn't utter any words about the Throne Room and the self-proclaimed local king Yami.
However, thanks to Vicious Scholars' sacrifice, it showed that Yami didn't act ignorantly but with firm will.
"Anyway, good job, Monster. Celebrate with the members, you may use the gang's money as you will." Yami waved his hand as he grabbed the frightened girl by the neck. He then dragged her out of the Throne Room.
"The brothers will surely like that. Boss."
After that, Blood Seeking Monster dragged the unconscious Vicious Scholar by the collar like a sack of potatoes and headed towards the barracks of the compound.
After bloody and fleshy battles with the Brash Gang, they deserved some rice wine, and meat. After all, soldiers needed to take a break as well.
Meanwhile, Yami threw the girl to the bed and smiled creepily.
