Picking Up Beautiful Girls In The Post-Apocalyptic World!-Chapter 259
The ships that were coming from the west portal were large ships with fifty people on each of them. The woman controlling these ships was a beautiful panther feline with black hair and red eyes. Her entire body was beautiful and slender! Her breasts were large but not large enough to slow her down, her waist and ass were just as large as her bust size! She was like a work of art!
She was currently standing right at the tip of the ship in front with a stoic look on her face. Anyone that sees her will surely think that she is a cold beauty!
“King Freya, we are two minutes away from the port. I see a large number of people gathering at the port. I think they are the servants of the new king”
Freya turned back when she heard her second in command saying this. This woman was also a shield man and she had red hair tied up in a bun. She held two short spears on her back and could easily grab them to fight at any time.
“Okay, remember what we need to do. Inform King Troy to be ready to come to my aid at my signal. King Han must not suspect anything. Just follow my lead”
The second in command nodded and Freya thanked her before ordering the ships to move faster. The crew on her main ship were all females. She did this because she had a higher trust for women than men. She knew that men were all ambitious and Freya was wise enough to fear that ambition. A man would do anything to move up in the hierarchy, even betray his king, so Freya always made sure that the men in her life were under her at all times. She would make no exceptions!
The only people she trusted to stand next to her were women.
The shore of Han’s castle came into view and the ships all began to stop. Freya looked towards the large group of people there to welcome her and she frowned when she saw Quinthreath standing at their front. Why is he the one here? Where is the new king? Don’t tell me he didn’t come to welcome me!?
Freya came down and Quinthreath greeted her. He knew she was stronger than him and so he showed her the respect she deserved.
“King Han is inside. Please follow me”
Quinthreath said this to her and Freya had to fight to keep her frown out of her face! This is an insult! How dare that man send an underling to come to welcome her!? Even if he is higher than her in the rankings, this is not how to show a good first impression!
But Freya couldn’t say anything against Han. Nobody saw anything wrong with what he did because they all knew she was the lesser one here.
“Fine, please lead the way, Quinthreath. I still regret that I couldn’t come to help you when he attacked, but you know how this alliance works. We are only not allowed to attack a fellow king, so it is just a shame that you were no longer one of us”
The statement was a jab at Quinthreath that sounded polite and Quinthreath tried his best to take it properly. This is just how things are among the kings! Petty people!! All of us are so petty!
The two of them began to walk into the castle and Freya was led towards the throne room by Quinthreath. The room was beautiful and no matter how many times Freya saw it she couldn’t say anything against bad about it! It was a big room that could fit more than five hundred people inside. Guards were standing along the wall on both sides of the room and they were all powerful swordsmen.
Freya looked up at the throne and saw Han leaning back on his seat. He was looking down at her with bored eyes and for a moment she actually felt her heart flutter. He was handsome! Unbelievably handsome! Is this really a human!?
She and her fellow female spearmen all entered, and Han stood up as she came nearer.
“King Freya. It’s a pleasure to welcome you to my kingdom. I was surprised when I heard you arrived so unexpectedly, but I hope your visit is a pleasant one”
Han hated talking like this. He sounded so fake! But from the way Freya smiled back at him, it looks like he actually said the right things because she gave him a small bow and spoke as well.
“When I heard that there was a new king, I couldn’t wait to greet him. Your kingdom and mine are allies and our trade routes are important for both of us. I can only hope our relationship will be as beneficial as it was under the former king”
Another roundabout way of saying, ‘I came to measure your worth and kiss your ass’. Han sighed internally. What is this woman planning by coming like this? She is trying to use the trade issues to distract me from her main purpose. Whatever, I’ll just let her play her games for a while and I’ll see what exactly happens.
Han smiled at Freya and then spoke up as he gestured towards Gregory and Yana beside him.
“This is Gregory, my right hand, and Yana, my wife. I hope you get on good terms with them as well”
Freya nodded her head towards Gregory, but she didn’t even bother giving Yana any face. She knew exactly what Yana was. She was a prisoner of war. Just a trophy that kept the peace between the former king and the new one. Someone like that didn’t deserve any respect.
Gregory rolled his eyes when he saw how Freya ignored Yana. All of this is so similar to how things used to be in his former kingdom. Everybody was trying to see whose dick was bigger all the time. He looked to the people behind Freya and saw how Freya’s second-in-command was looking at him with a calculative look. It was like she was trying to see how much of a threat he was. Gregory gave her the most chilling smile she has ever received in her life and she blinked in shock and looked away uncomfortably. He chuckled and then looked back at the conversation happening. 𝙛𝘳𝒆𝒆𝒘e𝗯n𝗼𝘷𝚎𝚕.𝒄૦𝓶
“I prepared some gifts for you. king Han. I hope you receive it well ”
Freya said this before she touched Han on the bicep. Gregory rose a brow at this and Yana squeezed her hands into fists beside him. Damn. Talk about an insult. Touching another woman’s husband right in front of her. It’s like saying you don’t even give her any respect at all!
Han eyed Freya’s hand before looking back up at her. He saw her give him a secret smile and she didn’t bother to remove her hand as she gestured towards her guards to bring in the gift. It was a giant chest of gold. Seriously, the chest was literally made out of gold!
They opened it and Han saw that it was filled to the brim with gold. Coins, cups, plates. Everything inside it was made out of gold! He looked at her again and she smiled.
“As allies, it’s only right that I show you how much I trust you. You are a new king, and as your senior, I think it is only right I give you a fitting gift”
Han narrowed his eyes at what she said. Senior? Is she forgetting who is higher on the ranking? Or is she trying to say that she is older than me? She is playing a dangerous game if she thinks I will just bow down to her like some kind of simp just because of a few pieces of gold.
Han shrugged her hand off his bicep before he gave her a blank smile. There was no emotion behind it at all!
“Thank you for your gift, Freya. I will surely take care of you properly as thanks for this. Please, come, we have a feast waiting for all of you!”
Nobody missed the way Han removed the ‘King’ from Freya’s name. It was a sign showing that he already lost a bit of respect for her and she knew it. She gritted her teeth as she followed behind Han. It was the little things that meant a lot to the kings, and just how you pronounce their title is something important for them!
Freya shook her head slightly. It didn’t matter. She would just try again later and see if she cannot get this man under her thumb like all the others!
The feast was loud and just as rowdy as Han expected it to be. The manners at the table were good, but the people there were all talking loudly with other people and Han was just bored at the head of the table. Freya was sitting at the other end of the table and Han could see how she kept on looking at him like she wanted to eat him instead of the food here.
He couldn’t say that he was blind. He knew exactly what she was doing and he couldn’t deny that he was tempted. She was a beautiful woman and any man would be stupid to deny her advances. But that was just for average men. Han could see far more than that and he understood that this is more than just a woman’s advance toward a man. This is a power play.
She was one of the strongest chosen in the Temple and she was trying to show the new king that she is above him by getting him into her bed? Is that her end game? Han knew that Freya was not the sort of person to be subservient to anyone, so she obviously thinks that I’m a typical man that would bow to her and allow her to take control of me.
Han really didn’t know what this woman is thinking. It’s silly that someone would come here and start seducing the strongest man without a reason.
A woman came and put a plate in front of Freya and Han noticed the woman look at him with a shy smile. Han smiled back and the woman’s face blew up in a heavy blush! The woman wasn’t the prettiest woman there, but Han noticed a while ago that she has been looking at him lovingly. She was the one always handling Freya’s food and Han realized that someone like this could be useful. He knew it was wrong, but if deceiving this woman will get him what he wanted then it is what he will do. After all, when in Rome…
It wouldn’t be possible to attack Freya openly without making the other kings attack Han too. He needed a way to get to her discretely and he might have just found it!
Han felt someone touch his lap under the table and he turned to look at Yana on his right. She was looking down at the table with a blank expression and Han turned to her fully.
Yana was feeling insulted by what Freya was doing. Everybody could see that the two kings were flirting with each other and Yana knew she would lose respect if she lost her husband to another woman just like that! She might not like how she and Han came together, but he was still her husband and she will not give him up like that.
Yana’s hand trailed up Han’s lap till they touched his crotch and she blushed!
Han coughed into his hand, but he didn’t show any other reaction. He realized that he might’ve looked at Freya too much and that made Yana angry. He’ll have to apologize later. But why the hell is she blushing? Aren’t I the one that’s meant to be embarrassed!!
