Not long after did the maid return with a long razor that gleamed in the light of the room. I could tell from one look that it was freshly sharpened. "Young Miss..." The maid handed me the razor with a smile on her face. It seemed she was enjoying the show. To be honest I was somewhat enjoying the show too. Now that this Princess was getting some retribution for all the trouble she had caused today. I mean I didn't even get to finish my meal. There were a few dishes I did not get to try all because I was interrupted!
Princess Feia looked at the razor in my hand and seemed to shiver. It looked as if she wanted to say something but I think because Ruth was glaring at her she didn't dare say anything and could only submit to her fate of becoming the first bald Princess of the Kingdom of Selinicia. And with these thoughts in mind and with the smile on my face that I could not hide, I took the first swipe with the razor creating a bald spot from her bangs to the back of her head in one swift motion. Ah, yes this felt very good. Wait… I hope this world is not turning me into a sadist… Maybe I just take joy in punishing bitchs? Who knows, all I know, is that dishing out this punishment felt so right.
In a matter of minutes, I had completely shaved our dear Princess Feia so bald and smooth that it was as if she had just been born. Well, maybe newborns have more hair than she does right now. "Now I hope in the future you will think twice before starting something with me or anyone for that matter. I told you who I was and you still acted all high and mighty. Please remember that not everyone will put up with your shit."
Princess Feia still did not say a word. Tears rolled down her cheeks as she held the locks of freshly shaved hair in her hands. She only nodded her head as she sobbed silently. Seeing her like this made me feel I went a little too far but I remembered how she acted in the game and knew that she would be giving Alissa a hard time later on. Let's just leave it as me getting a bit of extra payback for the things to come.
"Since you are done Rei, go clean up. I am sure you are tired from all your walking around. Sid, Claire, you two stay back. I want to speak with you. Rei has Emily so she will be fine for now." Ruth said with a smile.
"Then I will see you later." I said as I walked over and gave Ruth a hug. This caused a light chuckle and a squeeze from her before I left the hall.

"Now, Sid, Claire, you know what you two did wrong today right?" Ruth asked as she looked at the two guards in front of her.
"We did not properly protect the Young Miss… It was just this is the Princess, so we couldn't..." Sid tried to explain. But seeing the cold look on Ruth's face sent shivers down his spine.
"I do not care who it is. Next time someone tries to harm my daughter in law you will need to handle it a lot better. If they are from the royal family then just beat them up since you can't kill them. Luckily today's incident didn't cause any harm to my Rei. I will let you two off the hook this time since Rei will be mad at me for disciplining you. Go on and protect her well for me." Ruth said, waving her hand for the two to go. Sid and Claire both bowed and said their goodbyes before leaving the hall.
With those two gone there was only Princess Feia and Ruth left in the room besides the maids. "Now… Since Rei has already dished out her punishment, it is time for me to punish you. Fey get me that..."
"Yes, Madam..." Fey, a maid who had been following Ruth since a young age, shivered from head to toe.
Princess Feia's eyes went big with horror as she yelled out. "Please, Madam! Anything but that! Anything but that!!!"
Sadly Princess Feia's cries went unheard since Ruth had put up a barrier blocking any sound from escaping the hall. Outside the Ronstine estate, a single hidden guard sat under a tree, drawing circles in the dirt. "Princess, I can only pray you can come back alive after entering that den of demons."
The hidden guard had heard what happened to the Princess the last time she caused an issue for the Ronstine family. One of the only families in the entire kingdom that even the king himself shows high respect to. The main reason for this was not because of Cedric Ronstine, but his wife, Ruth Ronstine. One of the most powerful magic knights seen in a thousand years who is also known as the demon knight. She is very protective of her family and has no issues barging into the king's castle and yanking him off the throne to beat him up. This was not just a made up tale, no, this was a true story that happened after the king sent her husband off to war just before her wedding day. After being beaten for almost an entire day, the king called Cedric back before he even reached the frontlines. Otherwise, the king feared he would be beaten every day until Cedric was brought back home safely.
Ever since then, the king has lived in fear of angering the demon of the Ronstine house.
