Heir to the Kingdom of 1.4 billion people

Chapter 52: Chastity is never beneath the skirt

The lobby on the second floor of the Red Rose Brothel.

At this moment, corpses were scattered all over the place, and the smelly blood had dyed the luxurious carpets and walls red.

"Huh, huh."

His body and face were stained red with splattered blood. Xia Mingyu held the blood sword and gasped as he looked at the headless corpse kneeling on the ground in front of him.

It was not until the head of the brothel's owner, the culprit who committed numerous crimes, was chopped in half alive that the endless anger that had grown in Xia Mingyu's heart when he saw the previous scene finally gradually dissipated.

"Ugh!"

Looking at the white and red things on the ground and the strong stench of corpses coming from his nose, Xia Mingyu, who was killing someone for the first time, couldn't help but retching.

Berg, who was standing next to him, patted him on the back immediately upon seeing this.

Swish!
At this moment, the prostitutes behind him who had been staring blankly at the emerald green words above his head and questioning their lives finally reacted and knelt down on the ground in front of him.

Their bodies were almost pressed to the floor with their heads.

"God above, Your Majesty, the noble and merciful Highness, please forgive us for our earlier disrespect when we were unaware of your identity."

The "old" prostitute in the lead said tremblingly that her name was Wu Li, and she was the one who had led Xia Mingyu to the bathroom and saw him walk out of the burning sea of ​​flowers with her own eyes.

They were just the dirtiest rats in the gutter. Who would have thought that one day they would have a conversation with a real dragon high above?

Moreover, they did not answer the prince's question immediately, and even called Luca "Sir", which was disrespectful enough to be sentenced to death!
"It's okay, get up, I forgive your sins."

After holding his breath to avoid smelling the stench of the corpses, Xia Mingyu finally stopped feeling nauseous and said calmly.

The prostitutes then supported each other and stood up carefully, but they still maintained a hunched posture and did not dare to stand up straight.

Tapping.

Just then, there was a sound of orderly footsteps outside the window, and Berg, who heard the sound, quickly ran to the second-floor window to check.

"Your Highness, the guards from Mineral Town have arrived."

Berg said nervously that if a team of fully armed guards holding spears formed a siege at the same time, even if he was a transcendent, it would be difficult for him to break out while ensuring the safety of his lord.

Wait, guard.
Berg's expression quickly calmed down. The lone traveler got used to it and almost forgot that he was now a hound with an owner.

"Go down, and follow me."

Xia Mingyu put on his black hat again, and only spoke after the black fog had hidden the words above his head.

"Yes, Your Highness."

The entrance of the Red Rose brothel.

More than thirty guards wearing leather armor and holding spears tightly surrounded the gate of Red Rose.

"Damn, what trouble did that Hawke guy cause again?"

Captain Jonah took a puff of his cigarette and smelled the strong smell of blood coming from the brothel, and couldn't help cursing.

This guy, doesn't he think it's easy to wipe his ass?
If it weren't for the face of his master behind him and the mayor's plea, he would have kicked him out of Mineral Town long ago after the brothel massacre!
Tapping.

At this time, a chaotic sound of footsteps was heard inside the brothel.

Hearing the sound, Jonah raised his hand slightly, and the guards quickly and vigilantly pointed the sharp tips of their guns forward.

However, to Jonah's surprise, the person who walked out of the brothel was not the bastard Hawke, but a black-haired young man with a cold expression, a young man with a bow and a sword, and more than twenty prostitutes who followed them in panic.

"Who are you? Why are you starting a massacre here?"

Looking at the black-haired young man in front of him who was dressed in extraordinary clothes and didn't even have an identity certificate on his head, Jonah, who was about to swear, restrained himself and asked in a gentle tone.

Having developed a keen eye from years of dealing with all kinds of people, he knew very well that the other party was most likely a noble.

Since he was a noble, he couldn't be treated under the law that punishes murder. Xia Mingyu didn't answer, but silently took out the emblem with the ferocious wolf head.

In the Black Wolf Territory, the authority of the Hughes family crest is no less than that of the lord himself.

Swish!
The next moment, the captain of the guard and the guards quickly dropped their weapons and knelt on one knee on the ground.

"My lord, I'm sorry for showing my weapon to you." Jonah said in a cold sweat.

Anyone who can hold the wolf head emblem is either a direct member of the Hughes family or a big shot that even the lord wants to win over.

Currently, the only direct members of the Hughes family are the lord, his daughter, and his newborn son, so the reason why the other party holds the coat of arms is naturally the latter.

Jonah couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when he thought about how he almost cursed such a big shot.

"Search this brothel, take out the living, and pile up the bodies and clear them out."

Fortunately, this important person did not pursue the matter, but just gave orders with a cold face.

"Hurry, hurry, didn't you hear what the adults said? Go in now!"

The captain of the guards rushed into the brothel first as if he had been pardoned, and the other guards followed him in.

"What are your plans next?"

After dealing with all this, Xia Mingyu turned around and looked at the twenty or so prostitutes behind him and asked softly.

"I want to go home. I miss my parents so much!"

"I'm from Oak Village. My father is gone, but my brother has a family and might be able to take me in."

"Eddie, I can finally come to you."

"Wow, I have no home anymore!" A prostitute knelt on the ground and cried loudly.

Most of the prostitutes were happy and wanted to go home, but some of them no longer had a home.

Xia Mingyu counted the 27 prostitutes and found that 18 of them still had homes to return to, but the other 9 had already lost their families.

How should I settle these nine women? I can't take them back to Black Wolf Castle to be maids. Although Karen shouldn't mind, it is Karen's castle after all, not his.

Xia Mingyu looked hesitant.

"Your Highness, I have been homeless for a long time. I will lead these sisters to open a bakery or laundry in the town and spend the rest of my life there."

At this time, Wu Li whispered.

The other eight homeless prostitutes stopped crying and nodded in agreement.

For the weak women, sticking together for warmth is undoubtedly the only way to survive.

"Okay, for the rest of you who want to go home, I will order these guards to escort you back."

Xia Mingyu breathed a sigh of relief and said in a deep voice.

This is indeed the best way.

"Your Majesty, the noble and merciful Highness, thank you for saving us, insignificant, filthy rats, from hell. We will pray for your safety every day. May the gods protect you!"

These women who had suffered so much said so with gratitude.

"I don't need anyone to pray for me. If you really feel grateful to me, stop talking about your filth."

"After all, a woman's chastity is never hidden under her skirt. If anyone still thinks you are dirty, let him question my sword." Xia Mingyu said calmly.

　I have another update in progress. University starts today, so I lost some time. I am working on it as fast as I can. Thanks(ω)
