Son of the Hero King

Chapter 118 CH 105: BITCH SLAPPING (2)

[GORFARD MANSION]

"Who are you?"

Leonard had never felt so humiliated in life. The moment heard this question, he felt like he was seeing red. The fact that despite all his machinations, the prince didn’t even know about his existence made him feel like his existence was worthless and he hated this feeling.

Sneering inside, he spoke while giving a fake smile,

"Seems like your highness didn't do his homework before visiting. My name is Leonard...Leonard Gorfard. The heir of the Gorfard family, at your service."

Not only were his words arrogant, but he did not even bow as he spoke,

“Sir Leonard! Show more respect to his highness!”

Ares stood up in fury. Even though his family did test Sol on their first meeting, it was the Duke's personal action, who, in terms of status, wasn't inferior to the crown prince.

But, what about him, Athena, or Leonard? At the end of the day, they only had the courtesy noble rank of Viscount, just one rank higher than a Baron.

They didn’t even have territory nor official power, so in a sense, they were even lower than Baron.

Seeing Leonard sneering without having any intention to correct his mistake, Ares was about to continue berating him, but a hand from Sol stopped him.

“Haha! I was wondering what gives you the guts to speak to me like this, but it seems like you are just someone else's dog.”

Ares’s face immediately flushed in humiliation.

*Sigh*

This sigh made Leonard look away from Ares but just as he turned toward Sol, he was startled to see the young prince facing him, just a few meters away from him.

His eyes constricted at this display of speed, “You...” “Silence”, his mouth immediately closed at those cold words.

‘Was he always this tall?’

Standing in front of Sol, his breath became hurried and his face pale, it felt like each second suddenly began to crawl and as if Sol was becoming taller in front of his eyes.

But more than anything, what made Leonard’s legs tremble the most was the cold indifference he could see in Sol's eyes – as if he was nothing more than a pitiful worm.

This realization made him so ashamed that his fear vanished and was replaced by fury. He was about to arouse his energy when,

*Slap!*

‘Huh?’

Leonard's mind blanked out for a short while before the burning pain on his cheek registered in his mind.

“You!”

“I said. Shut. Up.”

*Slap!*

This was followed by another slap on the other cheek.

This was even heavier than the previous. So much that his brain felt a little dizzy.

Touching his bruised cheek, Leonard's eyes burned fiercely, but he did not dare to utter a word.

If the first slap could be said to be because of his carelessness, the second one perfectly showed that he wasn’t even able to react to Sol's simple move.

Looking at Leonard cowering in silence, Sol gave a small smile as he looked at him, “See? It wasn’t so hard right? Who is the good dog now? Now, you are going to properly apologize, like the good little dog you are...Understood?”

Those words infuriated Leonard so much that he screamed, “Bastard! Who do you think you are!?”

*Slap!*

His bravado was rewarded by another heavy slap.

“Do not contradict me! I gave you a chance to perform well and you wasted it. Now go away. Do not make me repeat myself.”

Seeing the cold back of his father, Leonard understood that nothing he said would change anything.

Standing up, he furiously left the room and closed the door with a bang.

The Duke meanwhile was already searching if in his list of children he had someone who could temporarily replace Leonard.

----

“Damn! Damn! Damn!”

Leonard cursed again and again after he went back to his room.

After he entered, he didn’t even wait to disrobe completely before he pushed his slave on the ground and began to vent all his frustration on her.

Each time he moved in her, his shattered pride would reform a little. He could only comfort himself by trampling on the pride of someone weaker than him.

After he finally released himself in her, he took himself out and laid down next to her; his breath hurried because of the anger and the release.

“Your highness, what is happening?”

Leonard looked at her in disdain and did not respond, all his slaves were ordered to call him highness. It gave him the feeling that he was a true king.

“Your highness, you were rougher than usual, is something frustrating you?”

Leonard snickered as he caught her hand, “You became more talkative lately.”

The girl blushed as she said, “Your highness has completely conquered me. What can I do if I wish to get your approval?”

Her words stroked his ego and made him chuckle. In the end, he simply recounted everything that happened. This time though, for some weird reasons, he was unable to lie and gave the entire truth,

“Those bastards!”

He was surprised at her reactions, even more so when she began to gently caress his cheek.

“It must have been hard, right?”

Saying so, she took his head and placed it between her naked and plump breasts.

“Your highness, if you would listen to me, I think I have a way.”

“What do you mean?” Leonard, who felt his mind becoming a little sluggish, asked with suspicion. It had been a long time since he received any display of affection.

“Your highness, what about entering the vault?”

“Are you crazy!?”

He wanted to raise himself, but her hand kept him.

‘Had she always been this strong?’

“Your highness, listen to me, I am just saying this for your own good?”

As she said this, a weird alluring scent filled the room. Leonard, who didn’t know this, felt his doubts slowly fade aways,

‘I must be just tired.’

“How can the vault help me?” He asked with an absent-minded expression.

“You want to become stronger, right? You want your father to look at you with new eyes, right? You want... to become king, right?”

Her words seemed like the devil's whisper. How so tempting, how so sweet, that he couldn’t help but agree.

After all, it couldn’t hurt, right?

At the end of the day, she was nothing more than a slave who fell for pleasure. Even now she was trying to please him and help him

What he couldn’t see though, was her emotionless face and her eyes filled with madness and determination.

The night promised to become even more tumultuous.
