Lillian and Issac were strolling through the castle, as they were going to visit King Orion. They were passing by a training area when they saw several shirtless riders training there. Some of them weren't even training, they were just trying to convey their beauty. There were some noble girls who were admiring them. When he noticed that the knights were almost naked, Issac tried to cover Lillian's eyes, as if to say that she couldn't see other men like that. Lillian pushed Issac's hand away and went towards all the knights.
Lillian ordered everyone to come and be on guard. With the order, she realized that all of them were under submission magic. An employee soon approached Lillian.
— They are the knights who were captured during the attack on Lynx, your concubine's kingdom.
— I can say that the warriors of your kingdom are truly beautiful. — Lillian said, addressing Issac, ignoring the employee's arrogance, but he continued speaking.
— In fact, Your Highness, not all of them are really warriors, they were selected for their beauty in case the princess wants to choose any of them. — said the employee.
— Call the knight Izor, I still have time until the meeting with the king.
Issac didn't know what Lillian's intention was. When Izor arrived, she asked in front of everyone.
— Sir Izor, which of these boys is really a warrior?
— In fact, only 2 of them. The rest were citizens of the kingdom.
—...
Lillian crossed her arms and placed her index finger on her chin, then stretched her hand towards those Izor had mentioned, speaking so that the other employees could hear.
— I will choose only two knights, the rest I will release.
However, they understood that they would be abandoned by the princess. And they soon began to protest.
— You will send us to slavery!
- Wrong! I will send them to the northern territory. Those who really want to be knights should train and return to the castle.
The other employees commented among themselves, the northern territory is a place that was abandoned by the king, as he granted this territory as a joke to the princess.
— "You may not know, but this territory is really fertile. They will soon discover this. The king conquered that territory and as there was no civilization they didn't bother to occupy it. It will be perfect to send the freed citizens of the kingdom of Lynx." — Lillian thought.
Izor, Issac and Lillian met in the office, Lilian handed over a letter explaining to Izor what she should do, she granted the right to supervise the territory. Lillian had freed these young people from the magic of submission, but to the others it appeared as if she were expelling them from the castle. Well, they were disposable. Izor immediately went to see that Lillian's orders were carried out.
Issac watched Lillian with admiration. He realized what the princess's intention was, she had granted a territory for the citizens of her kingdom to settle. Issac was truly grateful, for the hope of freedom was nearer than before. Issac would like to thank her, but was interrupted by an employee who said:
— Your Highness, the king awaits you.
Lillian was accompanied by Issac to have tea with the king. The king was already sitting at the table waiting, while some of his concubines were sitting on their knees next to his seat. Lillian approached, bowed and bowed to the king. Issac stood next to Lillian. The king received her and gestured that she could sit down.
— Lillian, I heard that you released the knights I had selected for you.
—They were just trash, so I sent them to the northern territory.
— I see you took after me, discarded them and sent them to an abandoned territory. It was an excellent way to humiliate them. When will you accept another concubine? — asked King Orion, looking at Issac with disgust.
— Issac is managing to satisfy me, for now. So, I don't need another concubine yet.
Lillian looked at Issac smiling.
The king observed that Issac was standing next to Lillian, he didn't like this attitude and wanted to know if she had freed him from the submission magic and then ordered it.
— Kneel! You are just a concubine, you should be on your knees before your King.
Due to the submission magic, Issac fell to his knees before the king. The king slapped him.
— The maidens of your kingdom are satisfying me wonderfully. What else should I do to humiliate him even more.
That was when Issac remembered the invasion of his kingdom. King Orion's knights locked several of the people in cages that would be destined for slavery, the knight Izor was completely injured before him, while Issac was gagged and with his hands tied without being able to defend himself. The king held him by the hair and the only thing he could convey was hatred for the one who had completely destroyed his kingdom.
—He does not possess the power of the Lynx kingdom, we must discard him! — said King Orion, letting go of Issac and kicking him.
Duke Gideon suggested that he should be used as Princess Lillian's concubine. King Orion at first did not approve of the idea, but it would be the best way to humiliate him, serving royalty like a dog and activated the submission magic while tears of hatred ran down his face.
