Chapter 20: The Hatred of Nobles
Flashback
“Hah..”.
Philip had just returned to his residence with the help of a portal from the Demon King Hades.
“I want to sleep soon, but yes so cold”
He only wears shorts at night that are so windy. The guard knights immediately opened the gate of the mansion door and some servants saluted with a bow, the atmosphere in the house was so quiet that only Philip stayed there.
“Oh yes, 500 knights I assigned to guard at the border.”.
Before long he reached his room and immediately put on thick clothes so as not to get cold.
“Ahhh..”.
His face showed a peerless expression of pleasure, suddenly the door was knocked and made himself forget about the pleasure.
Tok tok tok tok
“Masuk”
Two beautiful women race demi-humans enter by using erotic clothing like night women.
“Tuan” they both bowed
“What are you guys doing here?”
The two women approached Philip, one of whom undressed the clothes he had just worn, the other was preparing to embrace him.
“Wait du-”
“We came for Tuan” night service while hugging
“Cannot, I want to sleep” immediately
Philip was timid, yet He was still able to hold himself back, the two of them started the action. Philip was lying on the bed and one of the girls stole his mouth, He took off the kiss and stood up, immediately He took a small bottle in the drawer of the room table, a bottle in his drink and brought 2 bottles for the two women.
With a rough Philip thrust a bottle at the two of them, before long there began to be a change in the three of them.
“Sleep..”
Philip said in a voice that was so slow but could still be heard by the two of them, suddenly Philip and the two women began to feel a very strong drowsiness.
The three of them fell asleep on the same mattress, because their clothes were so minimal for such a cold night, naturally their bodies moved to hug each other for warmth.
The small bottle they drank of water containing psychological magic, Philip managed to make an extract of psychological magic even though it was still in the research stage but this was very valuable for him.
With the potion He could easily control a person, the psychological effects could be even stronger if the potion was given magic energy continuously.
But unfortunately, the manufacturing process is so difficult, long, and very expensive. If Philip had sold the potion it would probably have sold for 50 pieces of brass gold.
1 piece of brass gold can buy a horse carriage complete with driver's rent, the price is proportional to the process through which it is passed.
To make 100 small bottles of psychological potions it takes 1-2 people who can use psychological effects, finding them alone is like the greatest luck would have gotten.
The talent of psychological effects included in special-level magic that was very rare to have, but it was not a problem that Philip could hire 1 person who could use this magic, but the psychological effects were still ordinary stages.
The rent of the person alone was already worth a horse not to mention the magic energy that had to be given continuously to the small bottle, which was, fortunately, he did not have to bother looking for people who would channel his magic energy continuously.
Philip often bought energy supplies from Patron in secret, because the magic energy trade was strictly forbidden by the King, their relationship was very incompatible. Because often Patron deliberately raise the price of energy supply for no apparent reason. Nor does he know how this energy supply can be created.
…
Morning sunlight began to shine on Philip's room, his eyes responding to the light and he immediately woke up.
“It seems like again I put on the potion.” while holding his head that feels like it's throbbing.
The side effects of the herb were so few that it made it so special, the effect was only a throbbing headache.
“Better I shower first.”.
He got up and immediately left the room leaving the two women, they were both demi-human races that Philip had accidentally saved.
When the psychological potion was still in the experimental stage, Philip tried both women to drink it, This he often did. The neutral demi-human race was indeed often subjected to ill-treatment in the Hades Empire.
At that time, he wanted to know the reaction of his ingredients to a reasonable living creature, all this time he had only tried it on monsters.
The two women also had no family, their attitude was like crazy because of the trauma, so even if they died because of the potion no one would care.
And who would have thought that a few days after the potion was given their brains reset everything and just remembered that it was Philip who had healed him.
Out of curiosity Philip tried the potion again to the man who suddenly came to his residence and begged for help, the person lied to him and finally the potion was forcibly given to him. And in a few days the man forgot everything and went crazy. Philip did not expect the potion to fail even though it had previously succeeded. The man obeyed Philip so much that he felt sorry for him.
Finally Philip decided to extract the man's soul and mind through the demon ritual, his soul and mind transferred to a Demon stage protector purchased from Patron.
Philip was so sorry that at first he only intended to make the man tell the truth but instead went crazy, and how surprised he was to find out that the person he killed was a werewolf noble.
He asked for the help of the troops and some agreement, but unfortunately the man did not speak to the reality that happened, his actions were only based on hatred towards the Devil Shield Patron. Philip took advantage of the situation among those who were hot, sent the man's head to his house so that their anger grew hotter to Patron.
…
As usual Philip worked in his room and immediately contacted all the nobles (except the Shield Demon family) one by one and said that His Majesty had come back to the Empire.
“And this is the last noble, huh..”.
His body was instantly lackluster, his eyes were tired and his voice a little hoarse from speaking constantly.
Immediately the black ball turns back on “report your current situation”
“Mr Philip, the situation is safely under control no one is aware that we are not border guard knights”
“Good, how about the availability of food there?”
“Just come the food supply from Tuan village, they might give this as a thank you for having been guarding border”
“What about those monsters?”
“Some of them are still visible at the border but most have been hiding inside the forest”
“His food supply?”
“We saw them eating fruit, and hunting in the forest.We will also give them a supply of food obtained from the village Tuan”
“Good if so, oh yes what about the corpse of the Fire Man and the Knight?”
“Corpse?”
“Find the corpse of the Fireman!”
Shortly thereafter…
“Master!”
“What's up?”
“We found a piece of paper near the corpse of the Fire Man, it says 'On behalf of the King of Evil I will use the bodies of these two men"
“King of crime!?”
“It looks like the two bodies were taken that night as well Tua-”
The sound of swords and the pounding of hard objects was heard by the knights.
“What is it?”
“Master seems like there is a little problem in the forest, we will check it” soon
The black sphere did not shine anymore which meant that the knights were going to the forest to see the situation. Some people wearing black robes and white masks were being attacked by High Orcs and High Trolls.
“Come we run!”
Some of them died from monster attacks while others did not hesitate to escape.
“Stop!”
The monsters and the guards chased but when the intruders came out of the forest they stopped chasing. Immediately the knight reported the incident he had just experienced
“What master are you there?”
“What happened?”
“It looks like there is a group of spies who are lurking and they were caught by the monsters”
“Eyes!, quickly chase them!”
“No way Sir, they are so fast and so agile”
“Maybe they're spies belonging to the man who sent the hit man last night.”.
“It looks like so Tuan”
“Soon check the location that allows the spy to hide, maybe some of them are still lurking!”
“Good to do Mr...”
Philip stood up and approached the window
“I was curious...why did that person send so many hitmen just to kill a teenager, did he perhaps already know that the teenager was a Dark Devil?.
How did He know that the Dark Devil was going to come out of the Farm Village?, hmm instead of thinking about this insignificant matter. I'd better report this to Your Majesty.
Hah..The stock of psychological potions is running out, tonight I have to meet that person at the inn to tell him to make the potion.”.
….
Meanwhile Ra and Ri still look confused with the gold bag left by Tesla.
“Sister with this much pure gold coins, brother no longer need to work on that jerk noble”
“Hmm, how to say that brother does not work for him for money”
“Then for what!” Ri hit the nearest table
“Tenlah”
“How can I be calm if you want to continue with a noble!, and also I will not go to His Majesty's house.”
Ri went to the room, quarrels between sister brother often occur, they always contradict about anything, even so they both love each other. Ra took the bag containing the gold coins and placed it in the lodging payment place.
The two of them were unaware that some people saw His Majesty giving the rent a bag of gold. The one who saw the intention of robbing this inn at night, it was a pity for the robbers that Patron's men would come to kidnap Ra and Ri at the same time.
How's the next story?
