Son of the Hero King

Nefertiti, feeling the lingering gaze of Pandora on her, asked. “Miss Pandora, right? Are there any problems?”

Pandora chuckled. Now that she thought about it, despite looking like a young woman, Nefertiti was most likely far older than her.

“Nothing much. I just thought you reminded me of someone close to Sol. I believe only she can match the depth of your obsession. Her name is Milia.”

“Hah. Lord Husband’s first woman. I have heard of her. He loves and respects her very much.”

“True.” Pandora nodded. “In a way, she is his right hand and representative. I believe she is also his most trusted advisor.”

Pandora ignored how Nefertiti and Camelia twitched visibly at her words. She only spoke the truth, nothing else. Sol had a fascinating relationship with some of the women around him. Something that went simply beyond love and lust.

Some women he respected as his equal. Some others, he saw as frail women he needed to protect with his all. A few; like her, were more connected through lust or circumstance than anything else.

However, even among this diverse group, Milia was different. Before meeting Nefertiti, Persephone could say that Milia was, without a shadow of a doubt, the most obsessed woman she had ever met in the entirety of her existence. She basically worshipped the ground he walked on and was willing to dirty her hand for him in any way possible.

Sol reciprocated those feelings by giving almost blind trust to Milia. He might not show it, but clearly, she was the most capable and close confidant in his mind. Even though she was one of the weakest, she had the greatest authority.

Milia was Sol’s shadow. The one who dealt with all the darkness of the Kingdom in his stead. As for Nefertiti, if everything she learned about her actions were true. Then should she say that she was the light?

How amusing.

Camelia sighed and shrugged, “As much as it pains me to say this. That is indeed the case. Milia is more or less the leader of Sol’s harem now. Or should I say the director of the council?”

She had once tried to take control of his harem, positioning herself as the de facto leader. But back then, she was more or less out of favor with Sol. Though she doubted she would have been able to match the cunning Milia either way.

“Council?” Nefertiti was bewildered by the knowledge.

“As our number increases, we sometimes meet and discuss. The council isn’t just composed of Sol’s women. Any woman who has a relationship close to him is welcomed. Of course, you definitely have a seat reserved for you there.” Camelia shrugged.

“At first, we started it to calm down any possible negative feelings between us. No matter how much we love him, having to share his time is not easy by any means. It was a necessary step for us to make a coherent group. Thankfully, now the tensions have all but vanished. Well… at least within our current group.” Camelia drawled as she looked toward Kiyohime. She might not be able to see. But even her weakened self could feel the Dragon Queen’s monstrous presence.

Her presence reminded her of Lilith. However, if Lilith was like a sharp blade ready to sever anything, the one in front of her felt like a vast and immense sea ready to submerge the whole world.

This woman was strong, of that there was no doubt. To top it all off, she was also a bonafide dragon.

“Lady Kiyohime. What do you think? Will you join us in our small gathering?”

“Ahem~ I have just woken up.” Kiyohime cleared her throat while she adjusted her position in the bed.

The others all did their best to hide their snickers. It was hard to believe that such a cute action was done by the same person who half destroyed the forest during her couple tussle against Sol.

Rather than a fierce warrior, she now looked more like a shy maiden.

“Well…” Kiyohime glanced around, searching for the right words. She was burning with embarrassment.

With Sol absent, the heat that had been clouding her mind had all but dissipated, however, the warmth stirring her loin was particularly distracting.

She realized just how reckless and shameful she acted the very moment she appeared in this realm.

Fighting with Sol with so many people close by and officially becoming his mate. She was sure that the elves who had ways to contact the Astral Realm must have already sent the news up.

Was Tiamat rolling on the ground and laughing her ass off? What about Fafnir or Welsh and Hydra?

Stupid. Idiot. Dumbass.

She groaned and scolded herself. All she wished now was to roll on the bed and act like it was all a dream.

In the end, though, she couldn’t show a more shameful sight to those women. They were all Sol’s mates. Shouldn’t she make sure to establish the hierarchy here?

“I… I am Kiyohime. Queen… Well, most likely Ex-Queen of the Dragon Race. I apologize for the way our first meeting went. I hope none of you were hurt during the fight.”

“My… Thank you for your humble words. However, you do not have to worry. We are not so weak that the reverberation of a fight between two Kings could hurt us.” Persephone smiled as she answered. She did not miss the meaning behind Kiyohime’s words and even if it was not unintentional, she refused to let that woman consider them weak.

What did it matter that this girl was most likely ten times older than Ambrosia? In this world, age was just a number. All that mattered was power, and no matter how strong Kiyohime was… ultimately, she was only a King.

I am sure we can beat her if my sister helps. Lilith should also be able to win against her if necessary and if all else fails. I can just call my mother. Persephone thought like the rogue she was at heart.

As for how unfair it would be to call Ambrosia? If Kiyohime wasn’t happy, she should call Tiamat as well if she could. It wasn’t her fault Tiamat was forever banned from entering the Mortal Realm, right?

Kiyohime looked at the smiling Persephone. She didn’t know why, but her intuition was telling her that this woman was having very insidious thoughts.

Pandora could not help but sigh out loud.

Well, the peace did not last very long.
