As the scene settled, First had jumped up, but she was only half way to King Roth before Celeste was caught. Celeste struggled helplessly in his grip. If she could have shrunken back down, she would have. That only ant that he had so way of controlling that. She was trapped in his hand, and I had a feeling that I couldn’t take her away unhard if he didn’t allow it.
The rest of my girls hadn’t had ti to react, but as they ran up to , ready to plunge forward, the lionesses made a barricade in front of us, all holding out their weapons nacingly. I held up my arms, keeping the girls from continuing forward, and waited. King Roth had made any other move, and I knew this wasn’t the ti to upset him. He finally looked behind the fairy, his eyes specifically jumping to First.
“You allowed soone to get close to ,” he said.
The second had a triumphant grin on her face, but she quickly hid it by lowering her head. First began to turn red.
“Sh-she moved so fast… I was on my knees before you. I didn’t think-”
“That’s correct.” He responded. “You didn’t think. You brought several ard people before . You assud they wouldn’t dare try to attack , that they would dare try to kill . Hehe… however, I know how I’m supposed to die, and it won’t be at the hands of so childish fairy, nor will it be with a pathetic dagger like this.”
He reached out and grabbed the dagger, ripping it from her hand even while continuing to hold her by the neck.
“Leave her alone!” Miki couldn’t stop herself from yelling.
King Roth ignored her, instead of looking at . “Do you think malacrum can hurt ?”
“You have a god soul.” I nearly sighed it out.
It was pretty obvious at this point that he would. He would have been as immune to silvthril or malacrum as .
“You really should put your won on a leash. They are untad and willful.” He snorted.
“It’s not her fault. Astria is her mother.” I didn’t know why I said that, but it ca out before I could help myself.
“Hmmm… I don’t bla her.” He responded. “You are the Harem Master. The actions of a harem reflect upon their lord. If you were a proper man, then they would assuredly be proper won.”
The woman behind pushed forward slightly. I could hear them grinding their teeth, but they were fortunately smart enough to realize that in this situation, any outburst would only be proving him right in his words. Putting aside my thoughts on the seeming sexism of the situation, I was their leader and they were following . If they went and did things without my permission, it would be to bla. I had to take responsibility for their actions.
“I am sorry for her outburst.” I lowered my head as much as it pained . “It was not my attention to attempt you harm with this eting.”
I heard noises of surprise and protest behind , but I didn’t pay the girls any mind at this mont. My hand was balled into a fist, but I still had to wait. King Roth snorted, and then he looked up at the Celeste finally, who had been kicking and fighting helplessly the entire ti. Since her body was made of mana, she didn’t have breathing issues and wasn’t in danger, but if he broke her neck, she would die like anyone else.
“I suppose I should show you a proper punishnt!” King Roth declared.
