Inside the royal palace's throne room stood two thrones, and atop them sat the king and queen. An extremely beautiful woman, with long and flowing golden hair that cascaded down her back, and golden eyes that shone with authority and pureness. She was something to gawk at; her royal garments could barely conceal her ample breasts and curves.
On the throne to her right, an equally handsome man, who also had golden hair and eyes. He glanced at her and asked,
"Do you have any clue about this vileness the priestess spoke about, and how long do you think the search will last?"
The queen sat silent for a moment before she spoke, her voice calm and soothing.
"I have no idea, but whatever it is, I hope it can be located and eradicated before it's too late."
"Yes, I also hope the same… something that can alert the priestess must be something very dangerous, something that might even have the ability to threaten the entire empire," replied the king. He paused as he made a decision. "I am also going to participate in the search, or better yet, hunt."
He then stood up, showcasing his tall stature of two meters.
"Are you certain?" the queen asked with concern in her eyes as she also stood up. She feared he would encounter danger from whatever they were searching for. The king gently hugged her and reassured her,
"Don't worry, dear... remember I am the strongest holy knight in the world, and even if I am not enough, I won't be alone. There will be Knight Ran, along with almost all the elite knights in the empire, by my side." And without waiting for her to reply, he released her, then grasped his royal sword that stood beside his throne, and flashed towards the exit of the throne room, leaving a slight blur.
Whoosh!
The queen only reacted when the wind he left behind blew her hair upwards. She gazed at the exit of the room, narrowing her eyes in slight anger. A few seconds later, she relaxed, chanted a prayer in her mind, then sat back down. She hoped that he would quickly eradicate the vile thing and return safely. Her mind flashed to her precious daughter, and a loving smile appeared on her face. There was nothing she loved more in this world than her daughter; she was the epitome of beauty and purity, and she couldn't wait to hand over the throne to her so she could lead the empire to a higher standard of beauty and pureness.
Suddenly, the image of a disgusting baby flashed in her mind, and her loving smile vanished, replaced with a look of extreme discomfort and disdain flashed in her eyes.
If only she knew that the thing she hated and regretted giving birth to was currently inside the guts of her oh-so-pure and noble daughter…
If only she knew.
She stood up and went to her royal bedroom, removed her garments, and replaced them with something more sleeping-friendly. A thin, almost see-through dress that showcased her mature sexiness.
After which, she went to bed.
…
Time passed in a flash, a whole month. During this time, the holy knights had searched the entire empire, but still, they had failed to find whatever vile thing they were searching for, so they expanded their radar to the outskirts of the empire.
Inside the princess's chamber sat Yulo with a grin on his lustful face. Before him knelt his mother and sister, with their heads bobbing up and down.
~GLUP~ GLUP~
During this time, Yulo had successfully managed to bring all the palace maids under his banner by the force of his disgusting cock. After that, he had set his sights on the other members of the royal family, such as his aunts, cousins, and even the one who brought him into the world and was the first to betray him. He planned carefully, having the maids sabotage their food with lust poison. Then he showed up and fucked them into bitches who would obey all his orders. He couldn't forget the look on his mother's face when he first showed up, disgust, hate, and the look after she had a taste of his rod-submission, and lust.
Now he planned to have them poison their husbands once they returned from their pointless search.
....
The priestess stood at the cathedral's window. She opened it to get some fresh air, hoping it would help clear her mind. The shimmering moonlight illuminated her beautiful face… She gazed at the streets below with extreme concern, then towards the royal palace that stood a few kilometers before the cathedral. Her instincts told her that something was very wrong with the royal palace, and it also told her to stay as far away from it as possible… She hoped that whatever they were searching for wasn't hiding in the palace.
Suddenly, her mind flashed to Yulo, that ugly thing. She had almost forgotten about his existence. Many ideas flashed through her mind. For some reason, she felt he had something to do with the thing they were searching for. She decided to have Sir Ran take him for questioning once the sun rose.
Unbeknownst to her, just a few dozen meters next to her on the edge of one of the cathedral's windows, in the shadows, hid a figure tightly wrapped in a black cloak that covered his entire body, only revealing his purple eyes. His aura was also completely non-existent; if one hadn't seen him personally, they would never have known he was there.
This figure was Veal. During these months, his pawn Yulo had done a wonderful job, producing him enough lust energy for him to increase his strength to the point where he now wielded strength almost that of a newly advanced Crimson Bone rank. Because the world seal only binds about seventy percent of his strength, now, thirty percent of his strength is almost equal to the Bone rank.
