Chapter 107: The 2nd Fall Festival Tournament (Part 2)? by Harem-Fan
The next day, after waking up with Freya and Mari, I had breakfast with all of the family in their VIP suite.
Mari mentioned it to me while eating.
"Husband, I was given orders to bring you to the Royal Box before the matches started. I am in-charge of the VIP rooms security, since the Arena is owned by the Olson family."
I nodded to her, and said then asked.
"Well, I wish you could watch the fights, but as a Royal Mage, you have to work. By the way, who wants to see me, the KIng?"
Mari answered.
"No clue, I was just told to escort you there."
Zoe spoke up and guessed.
"Master, it might be the Headmistress, since she has been watching the fights with the Royal Family."
Dial said.
"Sam, I will save you a seat. I will tell your friends you are running late, since in the morning the Royal Knight Academy fights first."
So after hugs and kisses to my family, I and Mari left...
-
At the Royal Box door, Mari said while waving me past the 2 Royal Knight guards.
"Alright Dear, I will leave, I still need to do my rounds here."
A maid opened the door of the box for me, and I entered.
Inside, who I saw sitting on luxurious armchairs were...
Evelina, King Lukas, the 1st, 6th, and 7th Queens. Then I saw both the 1st and 6th Princes. Yasmin was sitting behind her Husband as the seating in the Royal Box is tiered, like a movie theater seating.
Personally, I am nervous with a married woman flirting with me.
But I am not stupid, and I know she will not really cheat, but is only trying to make me throw the match. (She would never cheat normally, but Sam's children are an exception, cough.)
The Royal spies would not let her go if she actually cheated on the 1st Prince. But she is a tricky woman that I must be cautious around.
Evil waving her fan in her face, points to the empty seat between herself and Leonardo then said.
"My Student, come and keep this old lady company."
As I walked past Ryan, who was getting his shoulders rubbed by his Maid, Mistress, and Conspirator, I greeted him.
"Hello 6th Prince Ryan, have you been well?"
His eyes opened, and he had a playful smile grace his lips, so he warmly said.
"Sam, glad you came by... I hope we can hang out more, I have been bored lately, and I need more friends, haha."
I lifted my eyebrows, as I noticed a slight fluctuation of Gravity Aura from his body, and I can tell he released it to show me he became a 1st Circle Fighter. I also saw he trained his first power to be the [Toughness] ability of the Vanguard Knight. I grinned and shook his hand.
"Well, I am glad your life of debauchery is going well. I am glad you liked that drink I got you, haha."
He smiled, because he felt his survivability had doubled, and he said one last thing as I had to move on.
"Don't forget, I am betting everything on you this Saturday. I also arranged a woman for you to be with on Saturday night, hehe."
His villainous smile sent a cold chill up my back, and I hoped it was not an omen, so I said.
"No need, I have plenty of lovers, bye..."
As I walked away, I heard Karen's coquettish voice say.
"Master Ryan, you are so bad at teasing Sir Roland... Ah~! Not my skirt, your hands, don't do that here, hehe."
As I passed the 1st Prince, I had planned to ignore him, and I imagined a Green-Hat sitting on his head, and I smiled unconsciously. But surprisingly, he said something to me.
"Hello Sir Roland. My Daughter Lane has talked about you a lot lately, so I hope you two get along, especially after the Fall Tournament ends."
"Well, she is talented, and summoned a strong Hydra after-all. Princess Lane is very nice."
Then from behind the 1st Prince, his wife Yasmin said in a kind voice.
"Nice to meet you Sir Roland. I will pass on your kind words to my Daughter."
As I moved on, I saw in her eyes, that desire again, and I only sigh in my heart...
Queen Gale, Vera's Mother, looked at me with cold eyes, and I stopped. With a genuine smile, I said to her.
"Greetings 7th Queen Gale, your compassionate heart warms the Kingdom."
Actually, Velvet Gale is not a bad woman, and is actually a good Queen, she just has that Southern personality I hate.
But she is kind to children and actually helps the poor to live better lives. So even though I classified her as a 'bitch', she has a good heart under that annoying Noble demeanor.
She looks annoyed, and Leonardo besides her, is hiding his smile. Despite it all, the 7th Queen is his personal favorite when alone. But Gale grit her teeth and reluctantly said to me.
"Hello Sir Roland. I am looking forward to the fight between you and my Daughter. I hope my Daughter can make me proud and defeat you in this Tournament."
Yeah, she doesn't want me to become the 8th Prince and get the title of Crown Prince. Because if I ever became King, she would feel uncomfortable for the boy she despised to be the Ruler.
But she thinks too much, with Leonardo around, I would never do such a cheap thing like taking revenge on her petty actions.
As I stepped to my seat, I put my fist over my heart in salute to the King, and said with a smile.
"I greet the King."
"Good, now sit before your Teacher scolds me for keeping you busy."
As I sat, I could feel that Evil leaned into my ear, to pretend to whisper, just so she could touch me.
Blow~! And as I leaned into hear her 'words', she only blew warm air onto my cheek, in a sensual way.
Her one playful purple eye had a hint of joy to see me.
"Hello Master, I am glad to see you well, how is your gambling going?"
Evil closed her fan with a grunt and complained.
"Humph~! Not good, because betting on you this year is terrible. You are expected to win easily, so your odds are now super low, sigh."
Evil is saying this loud enough for the 1st Prince and Gale to hear, and I joke, playing along with her game.
"Oh, Then Master, do you want me to not do so well in the end, so you can make some gold?"
Loli, pretending to want more gold, well half pretending, says.
"Sigh, Even though I want more gold, I do not want my reputation tarnished, so I demand you win this. If you dare lose to anyone, I will break your three-legs and not let anyone heal you for a month. Then I will slap whoever beat you to death, hehe."
Everyone in the room but me and Ryan, all had cold sweat on their faces.
Only Evelina could indirectly threaten to kill Vera and Luke without anyone farting. Evil is actually capable of these kinds of acts. She once outright killed a cousin to the Royal Family for touching her arm. Just blew him up on the spot, and turned him into a Skeleton, then crushed his bones, so no one could resurrect him.
"Master, you have gone too far this time... You can only break the two legs, because my Wives would rebel if you break the third."
Leonardo, hearing us do a comedy-skit, only put his hand over his face to hide his smile, while I saw Ryan give me a thumbs up.
Evil put on a fake thoughtful expression and said.
"Okay, I won't ruin baby-making ability, but I will break both legs for sure, so you cannot get away. Oh, By the way Sam..."
I asked, playing along.
"Yes Master, what is it?"
"After the Fall Festival ends, I need to leave the Kingdom for a while, and will be back around the middle of February. I will leave my summons under your control, while I am on vacation, I mean researching some things."
"Okay Master, Rosecrans will be quiet without you though."
The King hearing that Evil was leaving the Capital was the happiest, like he has his nanny leaving him alone in the house. His schemes will be easier to complete without his elder nagging him. Too bad Evil is only hiding in her mansion though.
"Evil Loli, do not worry, while you are gone, I will take good care of Sam for you."
Evil gave him no respect and bluntly said.
"Oh? Just like the time you gave him that first Elixir that could have killed him, your games concerning this Tournament, or your schemes forcing my Student to be your puppet? I think the Royal Castle is the most dangerous place, right? Who knows what schemes will befall my poor student, he might even be made to commit crimes of passion in secret, tsk tsk tsk."
Yeah, that last one was because she heard about the foot in my crotch incident with Yasmin Lucas, and she is already being nice not slapping her outright.
"You are falsely accusing me, I always treat Sam like my own Son, right Sam? Hey, protect me from her, okay?"
I see the poor King getting bullied again, so I help.
"Master, the King really has been good to me, so maybe be nice?"
"Humph! Fine, this time I will look the other-way, but if I come back and find out my Student was falsely accused of crimes, I will overturn the Royal family again like when you were still a brat."
This chapt𝓮r is updat𝒆d by ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom.
The King and 1st Queen still remember the day that Evelina killed most of the Rebellious Royal family members and prevented a Civil War. That was the time the Widow Queen fled the nation in fear of Evil.
Yes, the pregnant Widow Queen intended on seizing the Throne for herself after her Husband died, but Evil 'made' Leonardo, the current Kingdom's Hero marry the 1st Queen, and put him on the Throne as a true Lucas.
The Widow Queen was so angry and fled, because Evil threatened her life if she tried to seize the North for herself in a power-play.
"Hey, no one dares to set Sam up for anything. As long as Sam doesn't commit treason, he can do whatever he wants, haha. Right Sam, here, take this Royal Seal, it will make it so no one can challenge you and try to put you in prison. Take it, I insist."
I was stunned as Leonardo handed me a Gold Royal Seal with the power of the King.
As I stare blankly at it, the 1st Prince grit his teeth, because he had schemes to accuse me of some crimes before the last match, so I could not participate on Saturday.
I had a hunch, this was a collusion between the King and Evil to give me political immunity.
Then Evil said with a grin, while pointing to a Knight Guard by the door.
"Sam, with that, you can now go and kick that guy in the nuts, and no one will punish you, hehe."
When I followed Evil's finger to the Knight in the back guarding, I saw Drake Fulbright with cold sweat on his forehead, as he realized he and his family were in trouble if he messed with me again.
Because I can now freely use my Aura skills and Magic in the City to fight, and I cannot be imprisoned like he had been for a month. I grinned at him and said.
"Teacher, I am not a criminal, and I obey the Kingdom's laws. You have taught me to not be shameless and take advantage of others, right?"
Even Evil rolled her eyes hearing me say shameless words, and pretending she was not the most overbearing woman of the North. But she smiled and played along...
"That is right, for I have taught you to be noble, virtuous, and never knowingly-commit crimes. But even if that badge does not protect you, this Master will cover the sky for my Student, hehe."
The most nervous people in the room were the 1st Prince and Queen Gale, but a few others in the room had ideas of using me for mischief and private plots of Royal intrigue.
The grinning King said to everyone.
"The fights have begun, let's make bets to see who will win or lose..."
-
I had no idea that power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
This was the day I was tested with real power...
