The Shrewd King Chapter 056 - Black Creature's Attack
“Come inside, Kaiya,” Theo's voice comes. I glare at the door of his office where he is working. I am his only personal guard during the day. Warriors and generals always surround him that he really does not need me. Besides, I believe he is stronger than me. I think he does this just so he can frustrate me. “Kaiya!” he calls again. I groan. With no other choice, I open the door and enter his office. He welcomes me with a bright smile. He places his chin on his hand and gazes at me. “What is it, Your Majesty?” I ask. Calling him these respectful titles never ceases to annoy him so I make it a point to do it, especially when all I wanted to do, every time I lay my eyes on him, is to kiss him. “I am on my break.” “Is there anywhere you wanted to go?” “No. I just want to talk to you for a few minutes.” I purse my lips. It’s been three days since I killed the three snake monsters. The next day, my role as his lover ceases and I become one of the warriors. I also transferred room
The Shrewd King Chapter 057 - Breathe
After my bath, I return to Theo’s office. He is still there, thankfully. At least, I won’t suffer from guarding him outside his harem rooms. Realizing that I need to announce myself first, I unconsciously touch my clothes. It’s new. I burned my previous clothes even though I feel bad for it. It is completely fine, but since General Lorant said that the green blood is dangerous, I needed to do it. “King Theo, I am back.” “Come inside, Kaiya. It will be cold outside soon.” I look at the window in front of me. It will be a few hours before it becomes cold, so I stay my ground. Suddenly, the door opens and Theo pulls me inside. Closing the door behind me, he presses his body against me and I hit my back on the door.
The Shrewd King Chapter 058 - Night at the Ship
As Theo had mentioned, we start to make our way toward the beach late in the afternoon. General Lorant comes with us while saying that the others are already on the ship waiting. However, Theo has a lot of documents to do before he can leave. So, he works on it for a while and left what he can’t finish to General Waluyo. Getting into the port, no citizens are waiting. It might also be the reason he chooses to leave around this time. Fewer people means lesser hassle. We can also leave earlier without the fanfare. It is a very quiet departure as if it is not a King who is leaving his domain. In fact, only two servants are waiting for us at the dock where our ship is anchored. “Your Majesty,” the servant greets. Theo climbs down the horse. He is only wearing a simple white shirt and black pants paired with boots. Rather than a King, he looks like an ordinary citizen, but a bit more handsome. I almost hit myself with that thought. The other servant
The Shrewd King Chapter 059 - Wind Magicians
I wake up with fingers tracing down and up my spine. I lazily open my eyes and see Theo looking down at me, with his head propped up by his right arm. I am still snuggling against him. He feels warm and cozy. I gaze up at his eyes, not knowing what to say, or how to make sense of all of these. “Maybe, I should always bring you with me every time I travel. We have the most peaceful moments when we travel.” My brows knit and I look away. I remember. I am angry at him for not choosing our child. I remove his arms from me and sit up. I look around and I realize that without my studies, there is nothing to do on this ship until we reach Orttenburg. And that will take weeks of travel. Suddenly, Theo wraps his arms around my shoulder and presses his forehead on my neck. “What do you want to do today?” he asks. I untangle his arms around me and climb out of the bed. I check on the cabinets, dressers, and desk drawers, all the while I can feel his gaze on me. “What are you looking for?” h
The Shrewd King Chapter 060 - Drinking Session
I find out that the wind magicians’ names are Elroy, Ami, and Nadif. They all came from Owusu and are trained in combat. However, it’s wind magic that they came to love due to its convenience for navigation. They are all fun-loving people. In fact, once the sun sets, they request me to return to my room, because they want to relax by drinking with Klevon. So, sweaty and tired, I ask a passing maid for a bath inside the room I share with Theo, but she says that it's already done and waiting for me. And that doesn’t bode well for me. Anxious, I peek inside the room. It seems to be quiet so I slip in. I lightly close the door and am about to get fresh clothes from the dresser when I see Theo crouching over documents at the study table. He shifts his attention towards me and orders, “Take a bath and eat your dinner, Kaiya. I will join you in bed later. Let me just finish these papers.” I raise my brows. He is acting as if we are still in a relationship. Nevertheless, I did eat my dinn
The Shrewd King Chapter 061 - All Yours
He strides towards me and suddenly, he lifts me on his shoulders. I giggle especially when I am being engulfed by his lavender scent. He didn’t speak. We are about to leave the room when I call after the wind magicians with a, “Let’s do this again tomorrow!” Theo slaps my butt as if scolding me. I struggle and grab at his shoulders, but he keeps me in place. “Theo…” I purr. He pauses but then continues walking the deck. There are not many people in it. I can only see one or two as a lookout. But I don’t care anymore, I am too intoxicated to care about the way I am being carried back to our room. “Theo…” I call again. He places me down on the ground with a curious look at me. “You had too much drink,” he admonishes. I grin at him, and suddenly, I leap into his arms. I wrap my legs around his waist and did the same with my arms around his neck. I feel like a baby, but instead of getting away from my hold, he wraps his arms around my waist and continues walking along the hallway. O
The Shrewd King Chapter 062 - All Yours Too
“Is the Owusu library the largest?” I ask Ami, while she is teaching me about navigation. Unfortunately, my mind keeps on getting distracted. I just found out that navigation is something I don’t enjoy. Right now, Nadif and Elroy are taking a break or covering up for Ami’s tasks, while she teaches me. According to her, it will be our ‘bonding’. I just didn’t know that bonding can be so sleep-inducing. “Nope. Right now, the largest library is in Orttenburg. Once we arrive there, you will see why.” “Then, why is Owusu’s library the most well-known? People from Owusu also take pride in it.” “Orttenburg library is the largest. But the Owusu clan has the rarest of books. They are also known to keep forbidden knowledge.” “But Owusu people are muscle-heads, right?” “Captain Klevon for one, is not just a musclehead,” Ami defends. “And you’ve seen Elroy. He’s not the usual, muscular warrior from Owusu. Nadif is a typical Owusu though.” “Your point is?” “Sometimes the Owusu clan will be
The Shrewd King Chapter 063 - Morning of Regrets
I move my hips and grab his manhood. Theo looks at my face as I guide him inside me. I am still sensitive, but I know that he needs it as much as I want him to. So, I let him enter me. At first, he is hesitant, but as I moan at the way he is being pushed inside me, throbbing and huge, he starts to thrust. I grab his head and he buries his face in my neck, while I grab at his butt and spread my legs wider for him. He starts to groan in pleasure and his pace becomes faster. Both our feverish bodies are rubbing against each other, making delicious friction. He releases inside and I make sure that all of him will remain inside. And it repeats multiple times that night. It’s as if our body will not tire of making love over and over with each other. More so, each act becomes more pleasurable than the previous. We are getting used to each other’s bodies again. Memorizing each pleasure point, ensuring that we give more than the other. It’s like a competition of who can give a lot more. Unti

The Shrewd King Chapter 147 - Epilogue
I stand in the middle of an arena. In front of me is an enormous man covered in armor and holding a broadsword in front of him. I pull my sword out of the sheath and face my opponent. He is the biggest of the warriors–at least in mass. His armor covers most of his body except for his joints. A helm covers his face, but even so, I can see that he is very ready to fight. “Ready…” the announcer starts. “Fight!” The crowd of spectators cheers at the same time that the man rushes towards me. He swings his broadsword and I dodge to the left, missing me by a hair’s breadth. I counter by thrusting my sword forward, aiming for his exposed shoulder joints. He parries with ease and strikes back, the force of his attack sending shockwaves down my arm. I take a step back, regaining my composure as he advances once again. This time, I feint to the right and quickly pivot to my left, slashing at his unprotected knee joints. The crowd roars as my blade makes contact, biting into him and drawing bl
The Shrewd King Chapter 146 - Consequences
It is noisy. Why are people talking about me in my room?! I open my eyes in exasperation. They are saying that I am... Wait, is Kaiya my name? I try to sit up, but my body feels heavy and sluggish. I look down and feel relieved that I have legs... Why though? Nothing is making sense. Confused, I look around. “Kaiya? You’re awake!” a handsome man with black-purple hair says. He hugs me, but I push him away. “She doesn’t like you anymore,” a handsome red-haired man says this time. He’s smaller than the first one but still exudes strength. “Kaiya, you remember me, right? I am your mate.” They wait for me to speak and so I ask, “I am Kaiya?” “Yes, your name is Kaiya,” a woman informs. “The guy with the purplish hair is your lover. The guy with red hair is your mate.” “How does that work? A mate and a lover?” The woman named Inanna shrugs her shoulders and adds, “By the way, I am Inanna.” I try to process what Inanna has just told me. Mate and lover? It feels so foreign to me. “I..
The Shrewd King Chapter 145 - Barter
As the purification of the Moon Goddess starts, I am overwhelmed by my own memories. It’s like nothing I’ve ever felt before. The pain is excruciating, and I scream out in agony. But as time passes, the pain only intensifies. Tears flow down my face. But judging from the sting as it flows across my face, I think it is blood. I can feel my mind slipping away from the pain, and I can hear the screams of the werewolves inside my head. Suddenly, a warm hand grabs mine, squeezing it tightly. “Stay with me, Kaiya,” a voice says. Inanna. She presses her forehead against mine and whispers words of comfort. I can feel the calming magic from her as well. Through the pain, I manage to grasp onto her hands, anchoring myself to reality. Her magic and tone stabilize me, and slowly, I begin to focus on what’s happening around us. The Moon Goddess is suspended as her purification process starts. I can hear screams from outside the mimicked Realm that Inanna has done. “Don’t give up now...” she
The Shrewd King Chapter 144 - Scuffle
As we leave my chamber, I can hear the sounds of battle growing louder outside. I can sense humans against humans. But there are also vampires and werewolves fighting against humans. There is the sound of swords clashing against swords or armor. Worse, I see the destruction that the fighting is doing to Orttenburg. Even in the early moments of the war, there are already casualties that can be seen around. I clench my jaws. We must end this war soon. All I need is to get General Brandon and purify the Moon Goddess. After that, we can persuade these kingdoms that there’s no need for war. As we hurry through the chaos, I feel a pang of guilt. I can’t help but feel responsible for the destruction and loss of life in Orttenburg. It was my selfishness that led to this war. I have to make this right. Finally, we reach the hall where Inanna and Ruth are waiting for us. Inanna looks at us with a stern expression. “Good, you’re here. Time is of the essence.” I nod as Gezer puts me down. Ina
The Shrewd King Chapter 143 - Brewing
After sighing, Seth says, “Fine! But only with Theo, at least him–I trust will not hurt you.” I frown. “If you know that then—” “He will not hurt you, but he might take you away!” “Oh,” I mutter because Theo might really do it. I take a deep breath and the room spins for a moment. Seth helps me back to the bed and sits with me while the room steadies. “You should rest more,” he says, but I shake my head. “I can’t waste any time,” I whisper, trying to suppress the tremble in my voice. “Invite Theo. I will meet him in one of the sitting rooms.” “There’s no need for you to move. I will lead him here.” As Seth leaves the room, I close my eyes and take a deep breath. I analyze the current situation. Theo will always help me. The only problem is, I need him to understand the situation. All we need is to trap General Brandon, take out the Moon Goddess, purify her, and that’s it. I can talk with the Moon Goddess and plead with her about my case. All I need is to be strong enough to wr
The Shrewd King Chapter 142 - On the Horizon
Suddenly, I am whisked away from my own mind. I open my eyes to see both Inanna and Seth looking down at me. “Kaiya, what’s wrong? What did you see?” Seth asks. “I come here because I sensed some distortions in the air,” Inanna informs. “What happened?” I swallow hard, my head reeling from all the information. It is my fault in the first place! “There’s no dark entity inside me, but I’ve found out something else instead.” “What is it?” Seth asks. He is looking worried as seconds pass. I grin at him. “I am an apostle, rather than a Vessel—if it makes any sense.” Then, I glance at Inanna and ask, “Did you know?” “Just a hint,” she says. “The Blood God told me that you are technically different from us. Gezer, Ninus, and I are Vessels. You are a little bit different, though.” “Then why did you say that I am...” “Because I don’t know what to call you.” “How is an apostle different from vessels?” “I am guessing that it’s in the amount of blessing you received. Once, the Blood Go
The Shrewd King Chapter 141 - Introversion
I watch as Theo’s ship slowly reaches the horizon. I can still feel the warmth of his embrace, and his words still echo in my heart. ‘No one can take your place, Kaiya.’ I let out a rush of air as I hold back my tears. He’s only been away for a while and I am missing him already. And so I watch as the ship eventually disappears from my sight. At the same time, Inanna reaches for my hand. “I heard that you will be doing a ritual today. Just inform me if you need help,” she says and leaves me and Seth alone on the balcony. I turn to the ocean and take a deep breath. Despite the distance, I can still feel him inside my heart. “Kaiya,” Seth calls from behind me. I turn to him and smile. “Are you ready for the ritual?” “Yes,” I nod. “Let’s start.” We both take out our supplies and prepare for the ritual. We walk to the King’s private garden—a quiet clearing where no one can disturb us. We start by setting up candles, incense, and some crystals that Inanna provided earlier. When all
The Shrewd King Chapter 140 - Together
“Come on, Theo.” I take his hand and we walk to my room. I open the door slowly, revealing my small but cozy room. Light from the moon spills through the window, bathing everything in a soft blue hue. “Welcome to my room,” I say warmly. He looks around carefully with curious eyes, and I can’t help but laugh at his reaction. “Do you like it?” He draws me close before answering. “It’s lovely.” His arms wrap around me tight and he nuzzles his head against mine before kissing me tenderly on the lips. “I really missed you.” I push back and grin at him. “Well, I missed you more.” I take a step back from him and remove my clothes. He watches me as I peel every piece of clothing in my body. He looks at me with such devotion that it makes me blush. “I think it’s about time you bare yourself to me too.” “Nope, I enjoy seeing you like this.” “Like what? Naked and embarrassed?” “No. Looking at me with desire in your eyes.” Theo takes a step closer and runs his hand down my naked back, se
The Shrewd King Chapter 139 - Worries
“What the hell is going on here?!” Theo booms, his eyes blazing with fury. I freeze as I see him, my heart pounding in my chest. “King Theo! I told you that this is King Seth’s private area! You are—“ “Your King has done the same thing in my land!” he growls at Darius, who is much taller and bigger than him. Seth stands up calmly and meets Theo’s gaze. “There’s nothing going on here, King Theo. We were just talking.” Theo steps closer and takes in my state, his eyes flickering between Seth and me. “Talking? With your hands all over her? I’m not stupid, Seth. I know that you wanted her even before you have the mate bond with her!” Seth’s jaw tightens as Theo approaches him. Standing tall and unflinching, he says. “I’m not trying to do anything, Theo. Kaiya and I were just having a moment.” “A moment? Is that what you call it?” Theo sneers, grabbing Seth by the collar of his clothes. I stand up, panic rising in my chest. “Theo, stop! We were just talking, I swear!” But Theo doe
