《The Games That Bind Us》Chapter 61 - Princess Charm
Advertisement
I finished up the Runes for the day in the main room, It should be prepared for anything but a dragon, which I will be there for when a Dragon inevitably decides to screw me over. I noticed that the palace is HUGE. It took me a full second to get from one side to the other, I told Usara but he asked if I was some kind of monster. then I reminded him I was a student of the 3 Fists Academy and he understood. that playing card makes life so much easier.
"John" Isabel said to me from outside my room, she had been knocking for since I began me monologue. There is a big reason why I don't want to add her.
[Princess]
[Level 1]
[Isabel Crow]
she would not survive 5 seconds around me. I would have to power level her quickly and I still don't see her surviving much. it would not work out. however the biggest problem is, if I marry her, It would make my title as Court Mage redundant, I would ONLY be known as the princesses lover. nothing else, any other titles I acquire. I could have the title Destroyer Of Worlds and yet I still would be refereed to by the Princesses Lover. no thank you.
and the biggest reason, she is already in a forced marriage with a noble. that noble is from the lands the king does not own. the lands of the church. and that noble is actually more of a High Priest. and I am not stepping on that land mine.
"With my power of the king I command you, Open the door" Isabel said surrounding me in a kingly aura and I moved towards the door and opened it to see a cute princess with a frustrated face. "ah there you are John, coul..." before she could finish I had already shut the door again. "With my power of the king I command you, Let me in" Isabel said and sure enough I let her in, I had to go out anyway. "ahh, John, where are you going?" Isabel said and I did not stop walking as we were surrounded by money grabbing nobles.
"to see your father" I said with a smile. I then quickened my walking speed but it looks like Isabel was determined to keep up with me, she was now running and looked exhausted, I slowed down a bit to be nice. damn it, she noticed and is now looking at me with those eyes that show my Charm has taken action. I reached the Kings Office and saw Usara look at me confused.
"ah, John, what may I do for you at this hour" Usara sad with a smile. I pointed at the princess who was just now catching up and out of breath.
"I am putting up very powerful runes, it will make my job so easy on the day of the party it would take a dragon to get through them, however it is hard to concentrate with a princess trying to show you her underwear. now if you would excuse me" I said leaving the room, Isabel was shocked and then red in the face after what I said, Usara looked at her with a cheeky smile. But I had already left
King Usara's Point of View
"Would you rather be with him? he is a Court Mage so I can allow it but I fear you do not know the entire story Isabel" I said to her with a smile and she looked back curiously.

"What entire story?" Isabel said to me with a curious expression.
"He is the son of a farmer in Onset. his level in society started low. but where he is now it is of no concern, he has a Harem already so him being devote to one girl and no other is also no concern" I said that part and Isabel looked slightly upset but it for some reason also built up her hopes and success chance. "the reason why he would rather accept a cave troll over you is because of me" I said simply and that made her looked shocked.
"you? but father you are the king, there would be no greater honour" Isabel said to me and I sunk my head.
"I asked Rahem of my royal guard to go to Onset for a while since he was starting to cause trouble, it is a distant village, I did not think he would cause trouble and it would give him a place to cool his head. but Rahem had to be killed by Kieran for the murder of John's mother." I said simply and Isabel looked sad but then curious.
"Then why would he help you?" Isabel asked the simple question and I smiled.
"He has opened something called a Heart Chakra and to do that he has forgiven the actions that took place, but I doubt he would just forget them. I am sorry Isabel, he is the only man alive you can not have" I said simply but Isabel shook her head.
"We will see father, he is kind and has good intentions, however I cant sense him at his core so I cant be certain but I think I may have a chance" Isabel said with a smile as she ran off after John.
"Guards, come here for a moment, I have an idea on something to help my daughter..."
John's Point Of View
I ran back to my Court Mage's quarters and started to go over all the data gathered by my Paper Spiders. I then heard some knocking and an exhausted panting voice at the door but it is 8PM, one of the guards will escort her back to her room. I then noticed that they foiled 8 assassination attempts and stopped 3 poisons from being out in the kings food. these spiders really are useful. "John, please open the door" Isabel said sounding like she was about to cry, sure enough I opened the door with Psychokinesis while I my self continued work on some Paper Runes.
"How may I help you at this late hour, I take it you did not just come for our usual chat" I said sensing that she felt pity and sorry for me. "And if you keep feeling pity for me I will have to ask what did you hear to make you show that emotion?" I said and before I could continue Isabel hugged me from behind, she felt warm and loving, I turned to look and she was crying,
"John, I am sorry that your mother died because of father" Isabel said, I wonder if she heard I opened my Heart Chakra, I no longer feel angry o... She hugged me again tighter, her Kingly energy flowed through me and I felt a tear fall down my face, I proceeded to evaporate it with Fire Magic. I will not be made to go soft just by some kingly energy.
"Isabel, I don't hold any resentment to your family or you so calm down, it happened when I was a child, I have already released all my hate," Before I could continue my speech Isabel stopped hugging me and looked at me like I was a fool.

"John, I thought I could not feel it but I can now, clearly, you have wrapped all your hate and pain in a thin layer of joy, why cant you just let all that pain go?" Isabel said and I smiled.
"I don't deserve to. If I let go what does that make me, it was nobody else's fault that my mother died, if I was not there nobody else would have gotten involved, my mother would still be alive. it was my fault for having the Gamer Ability" I said simply but Princess Isabel slapped me across the face, then clutched her hand like she just slapped a steel wall.
"John, you are a good person, it was not your fault that your mother died. you were to young to do anything about it" Isabel said to me and I shook my head.
"I am 18 now and I am already stronger then most people I come across, I will only ever get stronger from here. however I could do nothing back then, I was to weak to help her" I said however with her sore hand she tried to slap me again but I caught her hand, "relax, my internal struggle is not yours, you don't need to do anything" I said simply however she just smiled.
"John, by the power of the queen, I command you, release your pain" Isabel said and suddenly I could not even control it. I felt sad, I was crying but I fixed that with Fire Magic. I felt pained in a way that Healing Magic could not fix. Isabel then hugged me an poured her kingly energy into me again and I was unable to hole back, after that I was fine and said I just needed some air and used Blink Step to get as far away as I could. I looked to the night sky and relaxed. I returned in the mourning to find Isabel sleeping on my bed.
"What are you doing" I asked with a smile from right next to her, she opened her eyes and then saw me, she smiled and then kissed me, using Empathy I could tell she thought it was still a dream, what the still part meant I will let you guess. she then looked around and then at me, she then went red and stopped kissing me,
"I am sorry, I did not realise, erm, I" Isabel went into full blown panic mode. I calmed her down with sleep wave and then woke her up, this time I pretended what just happened was her dream. she woke up again and looked around and then saw me.
"Care to explain why you are in my bed doing 'strange things'?" I asked making her go red.
"I was just tired, and I was waiting for you to come back and... and... I am sorry" Isabel said while getting up and running out the room. oh well, it was 8 o'clock so I guess I should start on more Paper Runes. these are now to protect the Paper Runes I have already put down. again, only a dragon could get past them. which now that I have said with is going to jinx a dragon attack isn't it? I walked out the door and some guards greeted me.
"good day to you Lover Of The Princess" Guard A said with a cheerful smile. I released my pressure and crushed him into the ground, I then walked up to him.
"I am the Court Mage, you will call me this until the point I am no longer in service. even if I was the lover of the princess being called that is embarrassing. call me that again and you will regret it" I said whispering into the guards ear, he was terrified but nodded. "Now if you will excuse me I have something to take care of" I said while walking off, ok maybe I was a bit to forceful there but I am not calling myself that, even if I decided to get with the princess. but I don't see what she can use to convince the others to join the Harem. oh well. that is her problem. I enter the King's private quarters ignoring the guards who tried to stop me and are now scratching an itch I had with there swords.
"Usara, tell your guards to stop" I said and he gestured to his guards to be at ease. "Not that, I mean calling me the Lover Of The Princess, around 80 guards called me that on the way here. make them stop. I don't care if I was her lover that title is just embarrassing" I concluded my complaint and Usara smiled.
"so would you become her lover?" Usara said with a smile and I looked confused.
"I am not the one that decides, it is the girls that decide amongst them selves" I said and he smiled with a 'you fell right into my trap card' kind of face.
"They already gave there permission" Usara said with a smile and I gave some curiosity. "I said It would make it legal for them to have the harem, instead of just being so strong nobody could stop them. now they can actually marry you" Usara said with a smile and I face palmed.
"Well played, well played" I said simply and slowly and he smiled.
"Would I be a king if I couldn't do something so simple?" Usara said and I nodded.
"It is bloodline so technically yes" I said making him look at me with a frustrated expression but I just left with Blink Step. I went back to my room where I saw Isabel, my room is nothing that fancy, it has a single bed, a desk and a window that covers the entire wall opposing the door, I with Paper can create privacy however I am to lazy, except in this situation, I blocked the window with paper but thin enough so light still passed through from the sun.
"John" Isabel said with a smile while sitting down on my bed, I walked over to her and pushed her down onto the bed, she looked shocked and her face went red but she did not try and resist. I then started to move my face closer to hers but not as she expected.
"You look tired, sleep" I whispered into her ear and as I got back up I looked at her with an innocent smile, her heart was pounding out of her chest and her face was now very red, I smiled and she looked at me, she then grabbed me with her hands and kissed me, I was shocked. "oh, so you would like me to continue? with pleasure" I said pushing her back down and kissing her, she looked happy, I kept kissing her while she was pinned down for so long I have memorised the taste. I then moved my hands down and groped her breasts and she just let me, her breasts were soft to the touch causing my fingers to feel like they were being sucked in yet at the same time held firm in my hands, she was now getting ready for me to seal it there and then, I moved my left hand down and moved it under her white trousers of a princess, I then rubbed her vagina and felt that it was already wet. I smiled and pulled off her trousers to reveal the vagina for all its royal power, I then inserted my penis into it causing her to jump, I smiled at it, her Queens energy was making it so pleasurable, at this rate she would out last me, I decided to match her Queens energy with my own Chakra. she immediately moaned with pleasure as I did, she wrapped her legs tightly around me and hugged me with her arms while kissing me, I came into her and she came at the same time, she then fell asleep beside me, I made a Paper Clone keep people fro entering as I also fell asleep with her in my arms. I checked before but yep, she has a higher charm stat then I do, Queens Energy is dangerous. I started to feel myself drift off to the black void of sleep.
[Saving..... the game has been saved]
looks like my children in Paper Masks are not contacting me this time. oh well row row row your boat.....
