Villainess Becomes The Knight

William pov contd.

I walked to the most infamous place in the empire, my brothel. It was reserved for me and my men, not even a single person who did not belong to me could come here.

As I entered the small building which was painted with red and golden color, I could see women all around. The big hall was filled with them, roaming around in small clothes. They were serving each other drinks, fruits and laughing. Their chatter reverberated in the room.

They looked at me and smiled, and I nodded back. I continued walking towards the last room of the building. I held the knob in my hand and took a deep breath. Cloning my eyes, I collected all the determination and then opened the door.

The place was completely dark, with not a single source of light. I kept my ears open as I entered. I had not even taken two steps when I heard the clank of the sword. My hands, that were already on the hilt of my sword, moved and I took out my sword to defend the attack. I parry the first sword but another sword from the other side and I have to bend to save myself from the three swords that were attacking me together. 

I moved towards the table and started throwing everything that came in my hand. 

"Tsk tsk.. Do you think it would be enough to save yourself from the attack. You are still a dumb kid, your highness" they laughed as I kept throwing things. 

My hands reached finally to the cupboard as one of them was close to me enough to attack me. I moved and hit his hand and his sword fell with the sound of clink again.

I opened the drawer and took out my daggers. Holding them tight, I tried to listen to the footsteps that had turned silent now. A single crack of voice and threw the dagger towards it.

The whole room turned into deafening silence. I knew there was still one left in the dark. He must have muffled his footsteps. I moved towards the other side where the light was. But before I could turn on the lights, the last one attacked too. But before his sword could move and hit me, I held it. My hands started bleeding, but the force was enough to loosen his grip from it.

  And I threw the sword behind me and used my dagger on his neck.

On the other hand I moved and switched the light on. 

"You have done a good job, your highness. But it could have been done better and without getting hurt too." said the man looking at my hand. The other two men walked out from the other corners. 

One was slightly hurt on the shoulder and the other was fine. He shook his head and took out the bandage.

"I know his highness would find a way to hurt himself so i am prepared this time" he said as if he was sure i had hurt myself intentionally when i had other measures to save myself.

"You three are going better at it every day. A small injury was still a successful defense." I retorted, they knew I was not telling the truth, I could see in their eyes. But they didn't say anything further.

"We were not expecting you here today. When we got the message from Theodore we were surprised. Hope our preparations were still enough, your highness" they said finally all three kneeling with bending on their knees on the floor.

I nodded my head as I remembered how the place was looking sensuous enough. 

"Let's go out, I have important things to talk about," I said and they nodded.

I walked out and they followed me. All the girls who were walking like prostitutes before were dressed in proper knight's uniform this time. Their alluring faces turned into cold and dead ones and their eyes were sharp enough to kill an army if attacked suddenly.

They were standing there with blank expressions as they looked at me walking towards them.

"Your highness" they bowed and wished in unison. Like an army they were standing in an alert position. A round table was organized in the center of the room where a bundle of parchments were organized.

I walked toward the table and took my seat in the middle of the room. The three men that have attacked me walked and sat on my both sides.

"I want to know about the knight whom we have injured." i asked cutting the chase and the man sitting on my left spoke

"I have confirmed it thrice. The girl was planted by her majesty. She was the best and would have surely won and infiltrated your security if we had not hurt her.

  She was a spy, your highness." he said as he passed a parchment in which there was every detail of the girl.

"It means that she is suspicious. We need to be more alert in the future. But you have done a pretty bad job in concealing the fact that you have injured the knight, Kirian.'' I remarked and he looked at me surprised while the eyes of the other two knights narrowed on him.

"I apologise, your highness, but the knight did not know what mistake he had done." he asked, certain that no one was there when he fed the horse the medicine.

"When you came to report me in the palace another girl followed you. She heard that you are the one who injured the knight." I told him as I remember how Abigail had worked efficiently but there was something wrong with her training too.

There was no way a girl with only 16 years of age, and with only a few months training could be that efficient in hiding in the dark and had that sharp eyes. The way she fought in the ground was something even Josephine and all the girls standing there could not do.
