King said,
"When are you going to make the hero my slave "
George said,
"The preparations will be over by the end of this week "
King sighed and said,
"Why can't we make him slave by the normal method "
George said,
"A hero is blessed by the goddess so the normal method don't work on a hero your majesty"
King said,
"I already know this.... go back now and come back after a week with the hero "
George then returned to the mansion,
In the morning, Pete's training continues,
At the last day of the training,
Pete killed the criminal without hesitation and continued his training,
George smiled and said,
"Tomorrow we are going to meet his majesty so rest well today "
Pete nodded and said,
"Does that mean my training will end tomorrow? "
George nodded,
"Yes, but you still haven't reached first rate so train diligently "
The day ended without much problem,
In the morning, Pete was woken up by the maids early,
They bathed him, dressed him in fancy clothing and fed him breakfast,
George then escorted him to the castle,
Pete asked George on the way,
"Where is Amira?? "
George said,
"She has some work at the temple and will return by the evening "
George stopped in front of a large door,
Pete was confused and said,
"The door was different last time "
George smiled,
"Yes it was "
He then opened the door and pushed Pete inside,
Pete lost consciousness as soon as he stepped in the room,
A magic circle drawn from the blood was in the center of the room and was surrounded by peoples wearing black robes,
Pete was then thrown in the center of the circle,
King entered the room after that and stood next to the circle,
He then took out a dagger and made a cut in his palm and extended his hand so that the blood drops on the circle,
The circle lighted up with red light as the first drop of blood fell upon it,
Pete's body was then floated in air above the circle,
After couple of seconds, Pete's body fell on the ground and a magic circle was engraved on the back of his neck,
He was then carried out from the room by some soldiers,
King was sitting on the throne with a big smile on his face,
"I have finally enslaved the hero "
The entire courtroom started clapping,
After couple of second, king raised his hand and the clapping stopped,
He the said,
"George, why don't you tell us how strong he became in a month "
George walked in the center of the room and kneeled down,
"He is halfway to be a first rate warrior "
The entire courtroom was shocked,
One of the nobles said,
"How is this possible.... the heroes before took 3 years to reach first rate "
King said,
"It's because our ancestors let them loose causing them to not train hard enough "
"But this time, we made him train for a month and the results are in front of you "
The noble then said,
"Why don't we make him train for one more month then "
King said,
"Because this is the perfect time to commence our plan "
A big smile came up on some of the nobles face while some of them had a serious expression,
Pete has woken up by this time and was confused,
"Where am I "
He was sleeping on a luxurious bed,
He tried to move but was unable to move,
A knight standing near the bed said as soon as he saw Pete waking up,
"Your majesty is calling for you"
Pete quickly stood up and started following the knight,
'What's happening... I can't control my body... it's acting up on his own '
They entered the courtroom,
King had a smile filled with happiness when he saw Pete entering the courtroom,
He said,
"Kneel "
Pete kneeled as soon as he heard king,
Pete was confused, and tried to say something but no voice came out from his mouth,
King then said,
"Stand up "
Pete stood up,
king then said,
"Squat, prone, jump, "
Pete did everything as soon as he heard king,
'Why can't I control my body?? '
Pete can just think but was unable to control,
'I can't even speak... what is happening '
King said,
"We couldn't control your consciousness so you must be thinking what happening to you "
"Well we have enslaved you and also you can't talk from now on"
The nobles began laughing and the courtroom was filled with their laughter,
King raised his hand stopping the laughter and said,
"You are now my pet hero"
King then clapped and couple of knights entered,
King ordered them,
"Take him and let him destroy couple of villages "
Knights nodded and escorted Pete,
Pete was then put inside a normal looking kart and then four knights changed their armor to the cloths normal civilian and three of the entered the kart with Pete,
The fourth one drove the kart out of the city,
Pete has lost all control of his body by now and can only watch and hear what's happening,
'Why is this happening... why did they do this to me and where is Morsh now '
Morsh had absorbed half of the dark energy and his soul was still flickering but was mostly stable,
Pete was inside the kart with the knights,
The knight's didn't even talk and were just glaring at Pete,
They also had the salve mark on their backs,
The kart crossed couple of cities and finally stopped after a week,
Pete and other knights only stopped for eating and some necessary things in the whole journey,
The kart had stopped in front of a small village with couple of houses,
Pete and the knights got out of the kart and were looking toward the village,
One of the knights turned toward Pete and said,
"His majesty wants you to destroy village because they didn't pay the tax "
Pete unsheathed his sword and covered himself and the sword in aura and ran toward the village,
Inside the body, Pete was trying stop himself but was unable to do anything,
'Stop... please don't kill innocent people '
Pete started killing people as soon as he entered the village,
The villagers began screaming and running away form Pete,
But Pete was faster and easily killed the people,
Some villagers were able to escape but most of them were killed,
Villagers that were not able to run away were begging to let them live but Pete
Pete even destroyed a couple of houses,
After the village is destroyed, he gets back to the knights and they then headed toward the next village,
The next village was not that far so he destroyed it the same day,
They rested at night and then headed toward the next village,
Pete was crying inside but was unable to do anything,
They did this for three weeks and destroyed 14 villages and killed around 800 people including Children and women,
The news of hero destroying villages was spread by the king and escaped villagers acted as a proof,
King was sitting in the throne and the room was filled with nobles,
One of the nobles said,
"The plan is going smoothly your highness "
King smiled and said,
"How can my plan not go well "
The noble said,
"When are we taking the next step "
King thought for a moment and said,
"After about a week "
The noble said,
"We will start the preparation then "
King smiled and said,
"That will be nice... "
King then clapped and George entered the room with Amira tied up in iron chains,
King said,
"Is this true, you wanted to enslave hero "
George pushed Amira and she fell on the floor,
She looked up and said,
"So what if we want to enslave hero "
"We were the ones who discovered the technique "
King angrily said,
"You didn't discover the technique, you stole it "
"The royal family knows the technique from decades "
Amira said while standing up,
"Why are you doing this to me... you have already enslaved the hero"
King said,
"I want absolute control over the kingdom and your temple is an obstacle "
"And you will be the key to remove the obstacle "
Amira said,
"The temple will not let you go easily if they found out you have imprisoned the saint "
King smiled and said,
"I have plans for that too "
King waved his hand and George took Amira out of the courtroom,
King then said,
"The war is inevitable and now we also have a weapon stronger than the holy sword "
King signaled a knight and he brought a sword and a potion bottle filled with black liquid,
The nobles were surprised and one of them said,
"Your majesty, the sword looks normal but what is that potion "
"I have never seen it before "
King smiled and nodded to the knight,
The knight unsheathed the sword,
The sword was covered in dark energy,
King said,
"This sword was found in the forest of the Lotus city, and it can even kill a first-rate warrior with just a scratch "
The nobles were shocked and were in disbelief,
King noticed this and signaled a knight,
The knight brought up two middle aged men tied up with chains,
King said,
"Both of these are first rate warriors, and they will be the test subjects "
Couple of nobles recognized the two men and one of them said,
"These both are the group leaders of bandit group up north"
King then signaled the knight,
The knight holding the dark sword walked up to one of the men and stabbed the sword in his stomach and took it out,
Everyone's eyes were focused on the bandit,
After couple of seconds, the bandit dropped dead and the dark energy goes back to the sword with his soul,
The nobles were shocked and the entire courtroom was silent,
King broke the silence by saying,
"Now test the poison "
The knight sheathed his sword and stood in front of the last bandit,
He puts the bottle beneath his nose and opened the lid for a second and closed it,
The knight then dropped dead on the floor and the bandit also died,
Their souls were then took in by the dark energy in the sword,
King said,
"What do you think about these weapons "
A noble said,
"Who made these weapons your majesty "
King said,
"We don't know the creator of these, but we know that the poison was sold in the black-market in lotus city and the sword was discovered by the alchemist branch head of the lotus city "
The noble smiled and said,
"Our victory is inevitable with these weapons "
Pete was still killing the people and destroying their houses,
After destroying the village, he then headed toward the next village,
Inside, Pete was now just watching without any emotions,
'I will kill the king the moment I get out of this place '
His killing spree continued for the next week too,
He stopped counting just how many villages he had destroyed and how many people he had killed,
Pete has lost all hopes of ever getting his control back to the body by the end of the month,
In the end of the month, he was destroying a village when he heard a noise,
"I left you alone for some time and you started killing innocent people"
