Everything will be my way!-Chapter 61
Chapter 61
Juno was boiling with rage. She glared at Kyon, hate in her gaze:
?You…?
?By the way, I was hiding in your pillows yesterday, keeping a low profile. They nearly fell in my secret place, and you didn’t notice a thing, stupid little fool.? – Kyon added, taunting her.
?I wondered what was stinking like that.? – Juno replied through her clenched teeth in a quiet, deadly voice.
*smack*
Kyon struck her across the face for such reckless insolence. The sharp blow sent her spinning on the floor.
?Mind your language. I warned you that I would severely punish any serious misconduct.? – Kyon said with a straight face.
Full of bitterness and resentment, Juno suppressed her outrage and decided to keep quiet this time.
?By the way, I almost forgot… I order you to hear “I order you” every time I say “please.” So, please, tell Dinah to bring me breakfast, enzymes, and a spatial ring, as well as prepare a room for me on the ground floor. And please, order her not to harm me in any way.? – He gave the last order with a gleam of pure malice in his eyes. Since the maid had a subjugating mark on the forehead, he could and should take advantage of it. He knew that he should stay away from her, but the temptation was too high for him to resist.
?I have never ordered anything to my maids! How dare you humiliate them and, even more so, act under my authority! They didn’t do anything to you!? – Juno exclaimed desperately. How could Juno tell Dinah to bring food to someone lower than her in rank? More than that, to a pathetic slave.
?Dinah did. And… guess what, I’m a risk-taker.? – He spread out his arms in a mock helpless gesture and then added another couple of orders of different purposes.
Kyon’s intentions towards the dark-haired maid were far from good. In fact, her attempt to get his hands cut for stealing the sausage (that Marina had brought) could be regarded as attempted murder and anyone who attempted on his life… Well, you know the rest. In a word, it would come back to bite her one day.
However, Kyon wasn’t going to take any decisive actions against Dinah, not now. Even if it was damn hard for him to control himself, he would give anything to try and give her a hard time, but all in good time. He would never forget what she had done to him to get his sweet revenge one day.
?Your wretched master Jean has been sick for three weeks, poor thing. You are stuck with his replacement. So… I order you to call the substitute after dinner and tell him not to come anymore. And please threaten him properly in case he dares to tell anyone about it.?
?Why? What did he do to you??
?Nothing at all. The fewer people in here, the less chance they will suspect anything. The master is around you all the time, staring at your body, asking questions… He’s no bloody use at all.? – Kyon smiled when he saw Juno’s lips tremble. – ?You know, I’m not interested in your cultivation. You can train on your own till you’re blue in the face. And now sleep tight. Please, do as I told you in the morning and then come to the training ground. We’ll see if you can manage without getting punished.? – Kyon patted Juno on the head with a gentle smile of the executioner who led his victim to the scaffold. Then he quietly left her room and went to the training ground. It was four in the morning.
It was time to take the first steps in his new life. Finally, the collar fell off his neck, and the dear crown landed on his head. However, he was not going to show his arrogance, not a bit. He had learned it the hard way.
After the ex-slave left, Juno exhaled with relief. Her whole body ached in pain from the recent beating. Two tubes of ointment had cured almost all her injuries, but the remaining ones reminded of themselves so hard that all she could do was wince in pain with every breath. She would have never believed that a noble lady like her would have to get used to pain. She had to learn how to live with it.
Juno wanted to raise the alarm, rip and tear, or at the very least, scream and squeal in hysterics, but her body obediently lay down on the bed and closed her eyes. Only some tiny teardrops rolled down her pale cheeks. {Oh my god… Why are you doing this to me? I didn’t do anything to deserve this…}
At six in the morning, she suddenly opened her eyes. She was wide awake. Her body hurt less, but she still felt soreness and discomfort.
Juno resolutely took a piece of paper and tried to write down “HELP ME!”, but her fingers did not move as if they were glued. The formation completely blocked any action against her master’s order. No matter how hard she tried, it was all in vain.
Juno bit her lip and went downstairs where she found Dinah. She walked up to her maid.
?Good morning, my lady.? – The superior maid said respectfully with a slight bow.
Juno’s face looked absolutely serene. Her body moved in a relaxed and completely natural way. Even her family and people close to her wouldn’t see her anxiety. She couldn’t even use gestures to show that there was a formation on her forehead. The wretched slave had constrained her from all the sides, creating a strong cage that paralyzed her mind and body.
?Good weather, isn’t it?? – Juno asked carelessly in compliance with Kyon’s orders.
?Uhm, it is… You’re right…? – Dinah looked puzzled at the overcast sky. The tops of the trees were waving in the wind. The weather was anything but good.
?Can I help you with anything??
Juno’s eyes grew misty with humiliation and anger. Dinah didn’t understand her. The young lady couldn’t draw the necessary attention no matter how hard she tried. She meticulously followed the orders of her hated master like an obedient puppet.
Juno’s lips quivered in an attempt to say something from herself. But all she managed to say was the following:
?Dinah, please take breakfast to my ex-slave, who is my servant now. He is at the training ground. And then prepare a room for him downstairs along with the medicine of enzymes and a spatial ring. Forgive me for the following words, but I order you not to harm my servant in any way. I’m afraid you might accidentally kill him. Well, you never know.? – Juno said with a straight face and went to the bathroom, leaving the maid to stand still. It was a shock for Dinah to hear all that from her lady.
Juno’s order sounded unbelievable. Dinah had served her family for many years. She was considered an equal member of the 2nd rank. Mr. Bai himself often told her that he appreciated her as his own. And then his granddaughter gave her such a treacherous and humiliating order not to touch that jerk! It smelled fishy… Dinah wouldn’t rest easy until she found out the reason for this sudden change and why the scoundrel was still alive.
…
Right after Kyon left the mansion, he returned to his usual place where he had been hiding for two long weeks. No, he did not go there out of some nostalgic feelings. Now he was the mastermind in the mansion. He had enough of haunting the bushes. He returned to bring his feathered savior back to its rightful habitat. Kyon was concerned about the unfortunate swan he had been using during long training sessions to create formations and slots.
The poor bird had lost all hope for a happy future. It no longer flapped the wings. It didn’t even try to quack. The swan looked exhausted, its feathers were falling out of stress.
Kyon infused the neck of the depressed swan with Synergy. Soon the nerve would be restored, and its voice would return. He carefully carried the bird to the pond and gently laid him on the ground, stroking its head in gratitude. The proud bird was about to give him a “loving kiss” on the nose with its beak but unfortunately missed.
Kyon returned to the training ground and had a nice long nap.
A sharp creak of the gate woke him up. The familiar quiet footsteps of someone very arrogant brought a happy smile to his face.
And so she approached him. The beautiful brunette with a silver tray in her hands. As always dressed in the maid uniform that boosted her sex appeal: seductive black stockings, sexy and tight on her slender legs; a disturbingly short skirt with a hoop petticoat; an exquisite blouse that showed her assets. Her beautiful gray eyes looked at him with icy contempt, her graceful eyebrows raised in surprise.
The lady’s strange request had hurt Dinah’s feelings. To bring food to the newly made servant! Why should she do this? Was the loser worthy of her visit? However, there was nothing she could do about it. She had to follow the order.
