"What is Balikaf, but a lowly-born commoner, who dares to rebuke me in front of the king, and Kodev, a little ghost, who is still looking at Ballykaf, an outsider, and not wanting to think about who he is sitting on this throne, what an ungrateful thing! All of them should be damned! ”

Lord Dernis-Galem sat in his study and drank the red wine in his hand, and the empty bottles on the table had accumulated to three. It had been a full hour since he had returned from attending the Imperial Council, and Lord Dennis had cursed almost the entire royal family and nobles in the country, but his anger did not seem to diminish at all.

Even if the Duchy of Basol is a small country, the hierarchy is quite strict, and the king holds the power of life and death of everyone in the country, and has supreme power. Therefore, not a single nobleman, even in his own domain, dared to insult the king so loudly. However, Lord Denis was different from other nobles, because the previous king died young, Kodev III was only two years old when he succeeded him, and the real power almost fell into the hands of his mother, Queen Caroline, who was Delnis's sister.

In the past 20 years, the Galem family has wantonly expanded its power in the name of the king and excluded dissidents, so almost all of the people who hold important positions in this country are members of the family or cronies, and Delnis, as the eldest son of the Galem family, controls nearly half of the territory and army of the entire country, which can be described as the nobility of the nobles.

Delnis, who has always been used to being flattered, was scolded by his nephew at today's imperial meeting, and ordered to hand over the command of the border garrison, of course, the reason for this is that Ballycalf reported that he fled without any resistance in the face of the goatmen's attack.

I can't be blamed for this, who would have thought that the goat-people who had been in the maze of death would suddenly invade human territory? There is no way to escape, because there are too few garrisons in the city, and no matter how you look at it, you can't resist the attack.

Although he will apply for a large amount of money from the state every year on the grounds of "preventing the invasion of monsters in the Grand Canyon". However, this is only an excuse to expand one's own pockets, in fact, the repair of the fortress city has never been carried out, the armaments and weapons have not been replaced for nearly ten years, and the 8,000 border garrisons reported to the central government are in fact only 1,000 people.

So being scolded can be said to be self-inflicted, but Denis doesn't think so.

"Hmph, this little devil Kodev wants to move me, it's just beyond my strength!"

Delnis said indignantly, he thought that today's incident was entirely his nephew's deliberate desire to weaken his strength. As a matter of fact, this idea of his is not unfounded, as he grew older, Kodev III began to be unwilling to be an obedient puppet, and he began to actively operate in the shadows, cultivating his own power, in a vain attempt to change the phenomenon of the Galem family in the country.

And the most representative figure in the forces cultivated by the king is Ballykaf, who started as an ordinary soldier and sat step by step to his present position by virtue of his military exploits. It was disgusting to Denis that a lowly-born commoner could stand in the palace with a nobleman of his own stature. What is even more hateful is that instead of appreciating the kindness he showed to him, Ballykav turned against himself at every turn.

"Ballycalf, don't think that you won today, I'm going to let you die without a place to bury!"

There was a treacherous smile in Delnis's angry expression.

Of course, it is impossible for a cunning person like him to obediently hand over the power in his hands. At the same time that he handed over the command of the border garrison, he proposed to appoint Balikav as the protector general and carry out a large-scale removal of monsters from the entire territory, and asked him to make a military order. The young and vigorous king naturally thought that this was a good time to increase his prestige, so he readily agreed, but he did not know that the so-called 8,000 border garrisons were in fact only a thousand.

The border garrison and the original army under Balikav were only 2,000 people, and although I heard that Balikav's soldiers were well-trained, it was a joke to try to sweep away the monsters in the entire territory with this manpower. The scattered monster groups may be able to deal with it, but it is impossible to get rid of those two monsters.

If Balikav challenges those two monsters, he will definitely die, and if he doesn't, he will be punished for disobeying the Holy Order, and in any case, the final winner will be himself.

Thinking of this, Delnis's drunken eyes flashed with light, as if he had seen the tragic situation of Ballycaf before he died. His mood improved, and the wine he had just drunk turned into lust and burned rapidly in his body.

Dernisa staggered to his feet, opened the secret room in the study, and walked through a magical portal with somewhat erratic steps.

At the other end of the portal is a chamber beneath the castle, which may be more like an inn in terms of its structure, with twenty lavishly decorated rooms, each of which uses expensive magic crystals as a light source and is lit with special spices that will delight the spirit and generate desire. This is Delnis's private clubhouse for entertaining VIPs.

At the end of all the rooms there is a cell, but it is not a vicious prisoner, but a young and beautiful girl.

The girls were like livestock, their necks were chained by heavy chains, and they were not wearing any clothes, and their white and tender carcasses were unobstructed. There were 11 young girls locked up here at this time, and there were many empty chains in the cell, judging from the marks left by the struggle, they should have been restrained before, but now it is unknown where they were.

Delnisa looked down at the maidens with greedy eyes, rubbing his rough palms over their bodies, and laughing with satisfaction from time to time. The girls did not resist Delnis's assault, their eyes were a little glazed, and their minds were in a state of extreme trance, which was the result of taking psychedelic drugs. Denis then chose a young girl, then grabbed her by a chain around her neck and dragged her out of her cell.

Although the power of the aristocracy was great, it was still not allowed to enslave humans at will like this. Therefore, these young girls were captured by Delnis's criminal groups such as bandits by paying money, which is completely a crime.

Of course, as a nobleman, he can naturally get the woman he likes through more legitimate means, but the woman he gets in that way is completely different from the girls in front of him. Because the women who get it in this way are still human beings and must be treated as human beings, but these girls are different, they are missing persons, and most of them have been treated as death, so they are no longer human beings, they are "props" that can be ravaged at will.

There are also many nobles with special habits in the circle of the Delnis Lords, who have a wide range of friends, and they are willing to pay quite high prices for these "items". For Delnis, satisfying his desires and obtaining money at the same time allowing these nobles to better serve himself, it can be said that it is a matter of three times at first sight.

But after all, such an act is not visible, and once it is known, it will inevitably become a sharp weapon of the king against himself.

Therefore, these girls must not escape, which is why he will build the house underground, keep it under the care of his cronies, and give them psychedelic drugs every once in a while.

"Just use you to get rid of bad luck for me! Hahahaha! Delnisa threw the girl onto the bed.
