Lightning Trident

"Lightning Trident", Julian called with an indifferent tone.

The Lightning trident manifested in his hand as the air around it crackling with lightning energy. The sheer power and pressure emitting from the trident sent tremors through the very foundations of the castle, causing chandeliers to move ominously.

The purplish light emitted from the trident illuminated the room as it casted flickering shadows that seemed to dance in sync with the chaotic energy.

Julian reveled in the power coursing through him and he could see the headmistress's expression shift from confidence to fear. Her eyes widened, reflecting disbelief and horror as she took in the sight before her.

"Impossible! That trident... it has the destructive force of an Arch Mage! How can a mere Mage Realm boy manifest such power?"

Julian stepped forward as the trident hummed and glowed with destruction. "Oh, it's quite simple," he replied as a sinister grin crept across his face.

"Thanks to a little boost from my system, I'm more than just a boy from the Mage Realm. I'm about to show you just how far I have come." 

He took another step closer. The trident glowed brighter and brighter with its power threatening to consume the entire room.

The headmistress stumbled backward, her expression ugly from fear and shock.

"You don't have to do this! We can come to an understanding!" she pleaded, her voice trembling as she tried to regain her composure. 

Julian chuckled, enjoying her shift in attitude. "Its too late dear. This trident is a symbol of my power, and now, you will learn the lesson of defiance."

With a swift motion, he pointed the trident towards her. The crackling energy intensified and the trident released a terrifying aura ready unleash its wrath. The air thickened with tension, and the headmistress realized she had gravely underestimated Julian.

 Julian's laughter echoed through the chamber and the realization finally hit her.

"Please, forgive me, young lord!" The headmistress cried, her voice laced with desperation.

She dropped to her knees, hands raised in surrender. Her once imposing demeanor crumbling under the weight of Julian's overwhelming power.

"I was just following orders! I didn't mean to cross you. You have no idea who the forces that I'm up against are!"

Julian's eyes narrowed as he took a step closer, the trident still crackling ominously.

"Do you think I care about your excuses?" he sneered. "You've played a dangerous game, and now you expect mercy?"

The headmistress trembled, her gaze darting between the trident and Julian's intense expression.

"I-I can help you! I can provide you with information, resources, anything you desire! Just spare me!" she pleaded, her voice trembling as she clung to the hope of survival.

"Please!" she whimpered. Desperation was clear in her eyes. "I can help you rise to power! You could be greater than any of the dukes! I swear my loyalty to you! Just give me a chance!"

"Loyalty? From you? The same bitch that sold her own kingdom", Julian said his voice filled with anger.

The headmistress took a shaky breath, realizing she needed to tread carefully or she might loose her life right here, right now.

"I know the secrets of the academy, the connections within the kingdom, and the weaknesses of our enemies. Together, we can ensure that you ascend to power beyond anyone's imagination." 

"How very... tempting," he said as he flicked the trident that crackled in his hands. "But words are just words. I need something more tangible. Something that shows me you're truly devoted to our little alliance."

Her cheeks flushed with embarrassment. The headmistress hesitated for a moment before slowly starting to unbutton her robe. Julian's smile grew wider as her clothes fell away, revealing her shapely figure beneath.

She hesitantly opened all her clothes and stood naked infront of Julian's hungry gaze. His cock hardened at the sight of headmistress's open submission. 

"Good girl," he murmured, his voice thick with satisfaction. "Now, get on your knees."

Her eyes never left his as she complied, her dignity shattering with each movement she made. The sound of her knees hitting the cold stone floor echoed through the chamber.

Julian stepped closer as the trident's power pulsed in time with his heartbeat. "Now," he said, his voice low and commanding, "Tell me who were you talking to"

The headmistress looked up at Julian. Her expression were a mix of fear and desperation.

"I can't disclose that information," she stammered, her voice trembling. "If I do, he will come after me. Please, you don't understand the danger!" 

Julian leaned closer, his presence imposing. "You will tell me either way, or I will make your life a nightmare you won't wake up from. Now, who was that man?"

The headmistress swallowed hard, her pride bruised but her survival instincts were sharp.

"The man I was speaking to earlier," she began, her voice small and trembling, "He is the Duke of the neighboring kingdom"

"And What does he want with our kingdom", Julian asked.

"He wants to destabilize our power. He has been gathering information to weaken our defenses. I was tasked with reporting on our new mages, but I didn't know it would come to this!"

Julian straightened up, a wicked smile creeping onto his face. "So, you were just a pawn in his game? How delightful. And what else do you know?"

"They are planning to launch an attack, maybe within a couple of years", she said.

Julian's expression darkened as he absorbed her words. "A couple of years? That's not much time at all." He stepped closer, his voice low and dangerous.

"What are their numbers? Their plans?"

The headmistress, still on her knees, trembled under his gaze. "I don't have all the details," she admitted as panic rose in her chest. "But I overheard them discussing an alliance with other kingdoms. They believe they can catch us off guard."

Julian's mind raced, the pieces of the puzzle falling into place. "So, they think they can take our kingdom without any resistance?" He smirked as a spark of excitement ignited within him. 

"This will be fun." He leaned in closer, his voice barely a whisper. "And you, my dear headmistress, will be the key to ensuring their downfall."
