Son of the Hero King

Chapter 439 CH 403:JUST A PLAY

Closing his eyes, Sol leaked a groan when he felt Milia’s tongue gently wrap around his hardened shaft.

As always, she was neither clumsy nor forceful with her action. She gave him an all-encompassing feeling of being taken care of and spoiled.

When he was with her, he didn’t have to take the lead or act strong. He simply had to let her do as she wished. Which was to bring him as much pleasure as possible.

In the end, he grabbed her by the horns as he released his seed inside her mouth. A small smile formed at the corner of her mouth and her throat moved as she gulped down the load without even a frown. Even more so she sucked even more, as if she wished to bring out all the sperm in had.

When Sol finally finished his long ejaculation, Milia opened her mouth wide, showing that there was nothing on her tongue. She had swallowed everything.

Sol caressed her head with a sigh, “I am always helpless in front of you.”

A mischievous smile formed on her face as she stood up and gave an elegant bow. Watching her like this, one would never guess that the prime and proper maid standing here was in fact a woman who could make the most vulgar actions as long as it was for her beloved.

“I am always happy to serve.”

Sol grinned, “Thanks I really needed it.”

He then closed his eyes for a while, “Well, enough playing around. I am sorry that we can’t go all the way now. But it would be quite disrespectful to go to the meeting while reeking of sex.”

“Then, I hope I will have my rewards tonight.”

She gave a coy smile, arranged her hair, and bowed before walking toward the door of the throne room.

Giving one last glance and seeing him nod, she opened the door wide and stood aside. On the other side, stood three people, Athena Highland, Arachne Milaris, and Hermes Travers. Two Dukes and the representative of the most loyal ducal family.

“You can enter.”

The three advanced and once they reached the middle of the room, went on a knee. Since they were dukes–Or represented one, the three of them did not have to kneel to a crown prince.

“We greet Your Highness.”

But all the people here knew very well that Sol was already the King in all but name. The entire Tower of Babel was already under is control and Lilith had never contested his hegemony.

They had also worked with him enough to know him and respect his power.

“You can rise.”

It wasn’t about him being unable to manipulate everyone. Simply being unwilling.

Sol ignored them and continued, “Take a look at page four for example. My father had established many rules about the caretaking of slaves. Even personal slaves are eventually the property of the state and as much must be treated like servants rather than being with no rights. Furthermore, children of slaves are given free citizen status. But, it’s clear many people are not respecting these rules.”

“I have been asking myself, why are those people not doing as demanded? Some do not even try to hide the atrocity they commit. Why does this happen? Then I came to answer.”

Sol gave a chilly smile, “They why doesn’t matter. Those who do not listen can be punished. But for those who toe past the bottom line–”

He passed his thumb over his neck, “Death penalty.”

A chilling air seemed to sweep past them.

“Your highness....Do you wish to become like the Blood Queen?”

The Blood Queen, Venus. She was, of course, one of Sol's ancestors and during her era Lustburg had observed the highest number of execution.

It was the era where the nobles were the most repressed. But it was also the era where Lustburg faced the most disturbance. After all, the King could not govern the Kingdom alone. Nor could she fight on all fronts.

“The Blood Queen... hum.”

Sol remembered his discussion with Lilith during their first date which ended with a visit to the cemetery. The Blood Queen was also the one who had introduced the development of Sweets and Ice cream of all kinds.

It was funny how such a woman could be considered a blood thirsty monster. But this mostly steemed from her control over blood after she signed a contract with a powerful vampire.

“Don’t worry. My goal is not to massacre indiscriminately. All I need is a just cause.”

Hermes, bit his tongue, “So your annoucement.”

“Public sentiment is easily swayed. Now I am the just and naive King who side with the common people and the nobles are the evils bastards who don't even fight and steal their taxes.”

He shrugged, “From now on, I just have to manipulate public sentiment until everyone is on my side.”

A smile formed on his face, “All humans have a mentality of Us vs Everyone else. Once this mentality is created. Then everything will be easier.”

Athena gave a bitter smile. She remembered the somewhat clumsy but kind young and prideful young man she meet not long ago during the Duke's visit.

The same young man was now coldly talking about executing a large number of people if they did not follow his will while using the sentiment of respect the populace had for him with no hesitation.

It was hard to put his past image and the current one together. The difference was simply too great.

As a King, this was surely an admirable growth. But Athena couldn’t help but feel a little lost.

(AN: I won’t delve toooo much in politics as I said this volume is supposed to be light-hearted and smut and joy. But gotta deal with a few background problems after all. I am also adjusting myself to reach the right level of enough politics for it to be interesting but not so much it becomes boring.
