  People were also celebrating outside the castle thanks to Sungjin, who had shared the food with the people opening his warehouse for them.

  Although their celebration was not as glamorous as the one in the castle, the extras were sincerely happy for the victory. The kingdom ruled by Sungjin was different from the kingdom ruled by Kapitle. The extras were happy that Sungjin protected their country where they could live like human beings.

  They celebrated with simple food with drinks and barbeque.

  And…… Zakiya was looking at Sungjin, who was sitting in the middle of the party arrogantly.

  His throne was nicely decorated, but he wasn’t wearing any kind of jewelry, possibly because he didn’t need any. His victory was the greatest accessory; it made him shine brighter than any crown.

  And the beautiful girls who were celebrating around him made people envy him more than any treasures.

  A beauty shining like sunlight, Ereka served him dishes that she had made herself. “Sungjin, I cooked these to celebrate your victory.”


  Sungjin took a bite of a dessert made with cheese, fruits and nuts. “It’s delicious.”


  “Really?” Ereka blushed because she was happy enough to see him happy.

  “Is this the way we celebrate our victory?” Eustasia complained, approaching him closely, although she meant that a conqueror has to celebrate a victory by spending a hot night with beauties, but Sungjin just laughed.

  “The war has just begun. We still have a long way to go.”


  “Pff.” She turned her head like a vexed cat.

  “Sungjin oppa! I’m so happy everything worked out well!” Rachel jumped up on Sungjin’s lap.

  “You did a great job.” Sungjin gently stroked her head.

  “Hehehe. Although I failed to defeat the Golden Wise King,” said Rachel, smiling like a little puppy.

  “No. Keeping Kapitle on your battlefield was your job, so you did a great job.”


  “Did I?”


  “Of course.” Sungjin smiled gently, looking at a brightly smiling Rachel.

  The scene made Ereka blush and touch her cheeks. I want to sit on Sungjin as well……

  It made Jenna sharpen her tail into a knife. How dare she take my queen’s place! You are just blinded by the power of Rupellion!

  All these emotions were caused by Sungjin, who was a young lion king at the top of a safari with lionesses around him.

  Zakiya wet her lips like a seductive lioness. Haha. It is hard to know someone’s mind. Sungjin looked like the hottest guy in this world. I guess I can give everything to this guy. If he could make her secret wish come true, she was ready to give him everything.

  Moving her body seductively, Zakiya walked to Sungjin.

  Clang.

  Clang

  Little bells made an attractive sound each step she made, and the scent of rose filled the hall.

  Heroes lost their words for a second to look at the girl who looked like a red rose under the moonlight.

  She put her hands together and kneeled in front of Sungjin. “Congratulations on your victory.”


  “Oh, you did a great job.”


  “Can I offer you a dance to celebrate your victory?”


  “Go on,” answered Sungjin with a smile.

  Zakiya stood up with a seductive smile in front of the conqueror with dignified attitude. “Allow me.” She started by making a circle slowly. Her hands made a graceful curve while her breasts and hips slowly moved to create a seductive movement. The chiffon veil moving with her hand was beautiful, like a dance of thousand butterflies, and people could glance her beautiful skin underneath it. Every part of her body seemed to be heated.

  She started to speed up her dance movements, and when she moved her arms and legs, the veil floated beautifully.

  A drop of her sweat on her silky skin was hotter than a kiss, and her cleavage looked like a valley hiding a sensitive secret inside.

  Her dance was glamorous but not dirty, seductive, but also graceful, meant only for the conqueror.

  All the guys looking at her dancing sighed. Wow…… That is amazing……

  It was Sungjin’s status that made such a dancer offer to praise him with a dance; it was a dance that could only be offered to a conqueror.

  I’m jealous.

  Getting jealous looks from all the guys, Sungjin watched Zakiya’s dance as if it was something interesting. Hmm, not bad. Although he didn’t know much about dances, it was not difficult to know that her dance was a dance of another level. Her every move was meticulously calculated, and it was not just the movement that was calculated. The sound of the bell, her perfume and even her breath have been meticulously orchestrated.

  It was a magical dance to seduce a man. It was not just a dance but an art. It is a good performance.

  She looked like the dancer Salome, who had seduced the king with her dance to head the prophet as her reward.

  Girls around Sungjin were deeply impressed watching her dance. Whatever her intentions were, her dancing was a pure art that took everyone’s breath away. They forgot about everything else and watched the beautiful movement of the beautiful body.

  Finishing her dance, Zakiya kneeled in front of Sungjin again. “Thank you for appreciating my little trick.”


  “No, it was amazing,” said Sungjin, giving her applause. Her artistic dance deserved praise.

  “Now that you have defeated Kapitle, I would like to offer you my everything.”


  When she said “everything,” people around Sungjin imagined a steamy scene. Wow, good for him. So he is collecting all the beauties from across the continent? That’s the privilege of the conqueror, I guess.

  “Everything?”


  “Please make my secret wish come true.”


  “Haha. You finally have the courage to tell me it?” Sungjin laughed and he was willing to know what her secret wish was.

  Zakiya smiled seductively as well to make everyone even more curious.

  What could the wish of this beautiful dancer be?

  Her red lips started to move to say the words. “The head of Kapitle.”


  Everyone was shocked. People had expected her to ask Sungjin to keep her in his garden or let her have some land. Some had thought that she possibly wanted treasure Kapitle had. Kapitle’s head was an unexpected request.

  Sungjin was smiling but his eyes were shining sharply. “Hmm. Even if you don’t wish for that, I still need to fight to the death with Kapitle. But his head is what you want?”


  “Yes.”


  “Why?”


  “I would like to share the details in a more private place.”


  “Sure. Tell me after the party.”


  “Thank you.”


  Heroes exchanged sighs, imagining a hot and private affair that would happen after the party.

  Now, the witch of illusion, who used to be loyal to Kapitle, is going to be taken by Sungjin? Is that it?

  The young lion is taking everything, conquering them one by one. Or…… Maybe this dancer is hiding something fatal.

  The party was over, and Sungjin called Zakiya to his bedroom……

  But that was not the case. He only called her to the meeting room. Ereka and Eustasia stood next to him.

  Zakiya smiled. “Haha. You won’t allow me to be with you privately?”


  “We are private enough.”


  “So they are already one body and spirit with you, is that it?”


  “Hmm.”


  Ereka blushed and touched her cheeks in shyness. “Oh my god, Zakiya,” said Ereka, thinking, what if people hear such a rumor? Although she didn’t really care……

  “That’s it,” said Eustasia to confirm the potential rumor.

  “That’s not it.” Sungjin coughed and changed the subject. “Stop talking nonsense and let’s get to the point.”


  “Of course, Your Highness. I want his head…… to return his kindness.” Zakiya looked serious.

  “Kindness?” It would have been easier to understand if she had said it was for revenge, but kindness didn’t make sense to anyone.

  “Yes, kindness. He took care of me when I became an orphan.” Zakiya’s smile became even more mysterious.

  “Do you know the desert of illusion?”


  “I heard that’s where you’re staying. It is a ruin that can’t function as actual land.” It belonged to the Golden Wise King, but it was a ruin without any battlefields, which meant it was just a ruin that wasn’t worth a fight.

  “You are right. It looks like this.”


  Sungjin’s room became a bleak desert without anything in it—not even a cactus. There wasn’t a single scorpion or camel.

  “It is a bleak desert, worse than what I have heard.”


  “Yes, but it used to be called Greenland.”


  Suddenly, the scenery changed. They were able to see a green field around them. There were a few cows loitering around the field, and a child was napping under a tree. Fluffy clouds were floating in the blue sky.

  It was a peaceful and cozy scene.

  “It was a beautiful place,” Zakiya mumbled, thinking of the beautiful scene from her childhood.

  The seductive dancer used to be a child as well, when her parents looked like her perfect heroes and the world was full of fun things.

  A young boy was chasing young Zakiya. “Zakiya, wait for me.”


  “Speed up,” said Zakiya, and left her brother to run ahead.

  “Zakiya……” Her brother stopped at the front gate of the castle, panting.

  “Haha, I am crossing!” Zakiya wanted to tease her brother, so she crossed the bridge by herself.

  “Ugh…… I don’t care. I will rest a bit here.” Her brother complained and lay down on the ground.

  Should I wait for him? Young Zakiya changed her mind and stopped when her brother was a hundred meters away. The next moment, a pillar of light struck the ground. “Huh?”


  Hyperdense energy covered up the castle to melt down the wall and the columns made of stones, not to mention the people inside.

  What is going on? Zakiya looked at it blankly without understanding what was happening. She saw the light swallow her brother and melt him down, but she couldn’t understand what was happening.

  Everything happened too fast. The next moment, the pillar of light expanded. Zakiya lost consciousness in the wave of light coming toward her.

  The next moment, the illusion changed scenes. There was no green field or happy village anymore. Only the desert.

  There were no playing kids or a crow looking for dead bodies. Not even a bug looking for rotting meat.

  There was only red sand of the desert of death.

  There was only one person alive.

  That was the unconscious Zakiya, who was lying down on the ground. For some unknown reason, the pillar of light hadn’t harmed her. “Huh?” Zakiya woke up and looked around. “Father? Mother? Limad!” She called her father. She called her mother and her brother. But no one answered.

  She was too young, and the disaster was too terrible. She didn’t know what to do but keep crying and passing out.

  “The accident called the tragedy of Greenland? I heard that accident made Greenland a desert and killed 99 percent of the habitants.”


  Looking at Ereka, who felt sorry for her, Zakiya only smiled. “Yes. I survived thanks to the family heirloom: the talisman of the sun. But I was too young to know any of those things.”


  Without any help, she would have died from exhaustion, but there was someone who had saved her.

  “Are you awake now? You bothered me, but your parents were loyal to me, so I will forgive you.”


  When she opened her eyes, she was able to see an old king with absolute power. “Who are you?”


  “I’m your and your parents’ king. I will be your guardian until you grow up. You shall become a loyal and useful servant when you grow up.” That was an order, but at the same time, it was a new direction for the child who was dying alone.

  “Yes.” Zakiya nodded desperately, fearing that her savior would abandon her to die alone if she disobeyed him.
