Ch 27

***Benin's room***

Ben woke up with sulky face. He did not have a proper sleep last night. After her got molested by those three, he could not even blink his eyes. He thought they might be came back again. Fortunately, they were gone permanently.

After he prepared himself, he walked out of the room. His guards saw him and bowed. They lead him to the dining room but something was not right. Ben felt they are looking at him with weird eyes. He knew what is going on here. They must saw or heard what happened last night

"This is not fun" He thought "I need to do something before weird rumor will spread around my army."

While they are walking, Ben sees Amelia standing and talking with a male reptile in the general cloth. When he gets closer, he sees a small and green veiled chameleon. He must be Styx, one of Fang general who protecting this area.

Amelia was going to say something but Styx made his moved first. He walked toward Benin and bowed respectfully.

He said "General Styx at your service, my lord. Please, punish this humble servant for yesterday absent."

Ben stunned for a second before he laughed and said "You are teasing me, General Styx. How could I punish you? You were doing your duty. Please, get up and walk with me. We can talk while we are walking. Amelia, you should join us too."

"Thank you, my lord." He replied and walked beside Benin while Amelia did not say a word but she followed them with distance.

"How is the situation around here, general?" He asked "Do you have any problem or lack of something?"

He laughed and said "Thank you for your kindness. Because of your prestige and merit, we do not have any problem around here. Chief Renekton also did his job excellent, my lord. Those who opposed the emprise had been eliminated."

"I see" He exclaimed "Do you have any report? I am really wanted to see who were opposed us."

"I am sorry about that" He replied "The report has sent to the capita already but I can tel you if you wanted."

"Please tell me that" He requested

"Well, there were few tribes who opposed us. The most problem is the night crawler tribe." He explained "They said the empire is the outsider who has no right to intervene this area. They even came and talked with Renekton."

"How's the result?" He wondered

"Disaster, my lord. The meeting became fighting in no time" He replied "Renekton ended up kill all of them in the meeting room. After that he and his army were sent and destroyed their tribe. We believed we got rip all of them."

Ben sighed and said nothing but walked. Styx used his moved freely eyes to check around there. When he saw a chance he asked something to Benin.

He whispered "My lord, may I ask you something?"

Ben did not say a word. He waved his hand as he allowed him to ask.

"Is it the truth you are gathering the army to oppose Chafulumisa?" He asked

Instead of surprise, Ben smirked and said "True."

Why did he say that? Did he know Styx is one of Fang general who under Chafulumisa's command?

Actually, Ben discovered something before he came here. He asked Lien-da and Yogi to gather information about Styx's situation and personality. He found some important information. Styx and his army is the weakest army among Fang general's armies. Because of that, Chafulumisa did not send his attention to Styx. He has a lazy and indolent personality.

The reason he still kept his position in Fang general is his siege and defense strategy and skill. The most his memorable victory was his siege strategy against Skarven. He was surrounding their five important towns until Skarven surrendered. He knew how to torture people's mind and heart.

Unfortunately, his time had been passed. The current relationship between Styx and Chafulumisa is the worst. Chafulumisa wrote an opened letter to him. He said Styx is the laziest general who only knows how to fight like a coward. Styx did not have ambition to improve himself or his army. He should resign from the position if he knows what Chafulumisa meant. That letter made Styx shamed and unhappy but he did not resign. He asked Queen Mirage to send him here permanently. Styx smiled and he was going to ask more but Benin stopped him and whispered a simple sentence.

"Good bird knows how to should the tree to make the nest" He whispered "I hope you understood my word."

He nodded and said "I know, my lord."

He padded his should softly and said "Good to hear that. You know how to find me. You can leave now."

Styx left them. Amelia was the only one who heard their conversation clearly. She is stunned in Benin's move. She speeded her step up and walked beside Benin. He saw her and knew what she wanted to ask.

She said "Are you crazy? That was Styx. Why the hell did you say that? Do you want Chafulumisa knew your plan so badly?"

"About what?" he asked "I do not see any problem."

"You told him you plan and it was not a problem?" She repeated "He could…"

"He could tell Chafulumisa about my plan" He interrupted "Right?"

"Y…Yeah" She answered

"Think about it, Amelia. Chafulumisa know what I am doing." He explained "What I told Styx was nothing but a simple fact. What could he gain from it? Nothing, right? But look on the other hand, I can used Styx as my double agent and gain my military power. I am the one who gain benefit from this situation and…"

"And what?" She asked

"Since Styx is the Fang general, he maybe or could be known some inside information that we do not know. That could be a reason why he wanted to change side."

"But, what if he backstabs you?" She concern

"Are you caring me?" He mocked "Wow. I need to look at you a whole new way."

"You!" She exclaimed while he laughed "Stop laughing at me. Who said I'm caring you?"

"Relax, I was joking." He replied and stopped laughing at her.

She silent for a moment before she said "Benin, are you gay?"

This time Ben choked from her words. She must know what happened last night, he thought. Even though he does not interest in her much but he cannot overlook this misunderstanding news before it spread.

He argued "No! Are you talking about what happened in my room last night?"

She nods in assent as Ben hit his forehead.

She said "I know aristocracy has a weird and unique hobby. You can tell me if you wanted but you should not hide it behind Collen and the others. It is wrong to them."

"N0! No! And NOOO!" He yelled "That was a mistake. I do not know why but Renekton sent them to me without asking me first."

"So you are not a gay, right?" She asked

"Yes, I love women" He replied "Please, if you heard anyone talk about this, fix it for me."

Amelia found this is amusing. She never saw him make a begging face like this before. She really wanted to tease him more and more.

"I could help you with that" She said lively "But how can I trust your word? Besides, we are an enemy, right? Maybe you just scared for people to discover your true color. I…"

Ben made a huge and crazy move he could think of. He delivered a deep kiss to Amelia who is standing idly. Guards also are stunning in what they saw. They turn away from them because they do not want to involve with this.

When he realized the situation, it was too late to stop. He thought she was going to slaughter him alive but no. They are still kissing. She does not push him away. Instead, she let him messed her up like he wanted.

Ben's tongue is rubbing and playing with her. She is not sweet like his women but salty instead. He let his emotion and lust take the lead. His right hand is comforting her by rubbing her upper leg while his left hand is locking her waist. She felt her body is getting numb. If he did not hold her, she will fell down on the ground.

Their moaning sound is the only sound people around there can here. Luckily, no one come around there that time. They kept kissing until Ben satisfied. Their mouth broke up slowly while salvia still connected like the bridge.

"A…Amelia, I…" He startled

"I hate you" She yelled and ran away.

Ben thought he made a huge mistake but he did not know she blushed and had a smile on her face. He shook his head as he saw his guards mocked him by raising their thumbs.

***The dining room***

Ben finally meets with the son of the bitch, Renekton who is eating and enjoying the breakfast. He really wanted to punch his face but he has guest with him. It is his wife

"Benin comes here." He yelled "Join with us."

He endured and sat beside Renekton. Kurma stood up and bowed to show her manner before sat back. Servants brought foods out of the cooking and placed in front of Benin. No one say anything but eat.

Kurma said "My lord, you look exhausted. Did you have problem last night?"

Ben was going to say something but Renekton said first. He gossiped something with her because she exclaimed "ahhhhhhhhh.". She looked at him and smiled before she stopped her conversation. Renekton must say another stupid thing again. She and the others left the room in no time. Finally, Ben is sitting with Renekton alone.

"So, were you enjoyed with my gift last night?" He smirked

That was the last straw for Ben. He smashed the table and yelled "You are son of the bitch, Renekton. I do not know you have this kind of fetish but what gave you the fucking idea that I loved to have sex with men? Right now, everyone is misunderstanding me. If you are not my friend, I will kill you and use your reptile skin as foot scraper."

"Easy man" He exclaimed "Is this how you say to the man who sent a gift to his best friend? You are hurting my feeling."

"What apart made you think, I am enjoyed your gift." He replied "What were you thinking? I am not a gay."

"What!" He yelled "Who said you are gay?"

"Everyone thought after you sent those homosexual reptiles to me" He said "You must fix this or prepare yourself what come after this."

"Hold on" He objected "You are going to said you do not like fucking people ass."

"What?" He surprised "Can you say it again?"

"I am trying to say those servants are not gay too." He explained "They are my ass slave. I love to fuck ass. That is all. "

"Oh my god" He yelled "Then, why you set them to me? You can send your female servants if you wanted to serve me, right?"

"Well, you said you wanted some man privacy time and I thought you were looking for some new kind of sex pleasure. So…"

"This is making me sick" He exclaimed "Then, what did you say to your wife?"

"I told her to go because I thought you wanted to share your first anal fucking experience with me." He explained "Therefore,…"

"Okay, stop everything and listen to me carefully" He said "I am not gay and I do prefer front door rather than backdoor. Therefore, from now on, you do not send any weird men or women to me anymore, deal?"

Renekton saw Benin's serious eyes before he replied "Deal."

"Alright, I will overlook this accident." He said calmly "What should we do today?"

"Well, I have to send an invitation to every chief around here as you asked me for" He explained "Why do you go and look around the town? I bet you will like my town. You maybe find some interesting things."

"Huh" He exclaimed

"Hey, stop angry at me" He said "I know how to fix your mood. I will tell my sister to be ready to meet you tonight. You are going to fall in love with her in no time."

"Not this again" He thought "I do not see how beautiful she is but I do not have any other choice but meet her tonight."

Suddenly, the female skink in female servant uniform walked slowly in the room without any permission. Renekton was going to say something to her but he changed his mind after he saw who she was. She is his sister personal and executive maid. Her name is Nyti.

She bowed a little and said "I am so sorry for my rudeness, my lord but Lady Numeuma Nithees told me to deliver her words to Prince Benin."

They looked each other with surprise before Benin said "My message?"

She handed the seal letter to him secretly and whispered to his ear "Pease read it carefully. You really need it. Do not let the other see it even though he is chief Renekton."

Ben is stunning in her word while she walk away and leaves the room. What is her meaning? Ben looks at the letter in her hand while Renekton is confusing in the situation.

"Hey, Benin. What did she say?" He wondered

"Oh…She…She told me Lady Numeuma Nithees wanted to meet me today." He excused "She also said thank you for your help to set her meeting up with me tonight. "

"SEE!" He yelled "My sister can see this going to happen with her power. Oh this is great when you two married, no one will…"

"Hey, I have to go first" He said and left the room. He leaves Renekton who is talking to himself and dreaming about uncertainty future.

Ben was walking until he reached his room. He closed the door and opened the letter. He saw beautiful hand writing on it but her words made him frightened

She wrote "Watch your step or your blood will breed on our holy and honor land."

"WTF" He thought "Is she threatening me or warning me?"

Ben can translate into two kinds of meaning. First, she told him to leave this land or else something bad will happen with him. On the other hand, she used the words "watch your step" which has a meaning she told him to be careful. This is making him confused. Should he believe she has a power to see future? While he is thinking, someone knock the door.

"My lord, we are ready" Someone said

"Yeah, I also have done here." He replied and walked out of the room by took the letter with him.

***In the town***

Before Ben got inside of his room and read the letter, he told his four elite guards to accompany him to the town. Ben is the one who is disguising while his elite guards are the reptilians or amphibians. Right now, Ben is wearing his Anubis mask again but this one look old and dirty. He does not want to make any more attention.

Three of his guards are surrounding him in the triangle formation, one in the front and two behind him. In this formation, they can rotate their position and support each other freely. The last one is walking beside Benin.

He was the one who told him they were ready. His name is Slick. He was the silkback breaded dragon who born and growth here before he moved out and recruited to the Royal Guard under Collen's command.

"My lord, this is…" He said

"Ahem!" He exclaimed "Out here, you have to call me, Lanista. I am not the Prince Benin. I am the owner of trading company and all of you are my guards."

"Yes, m… masters Lanista" He replied

"Good" He replied "Now, tell me about this town. I really want to know everything around here, people, food, and etc."

"Well, I believe this place has one and the only important rule. Power is the solution of everything." He said.

"Power is the solution of everything?" He repeated

"Yes, master" He replied "Around here, if people have a problem they will solve it with fighting. The winner is the absolutely right."

Ben was going to ask him more but he heard some yelling noise from his right hand. He turned and saw two reptilians are arguing about price of sword. Merchant said it is a reasonable price while the buyer said it too high and demand some discount.

"Look by yourself, master" He pointed at them

They start punching each other like it is the fight of the death. People are surrounding and cheering them. Fight is the word they yelled. Ben saw two royal guards stand idly like nothing happen.

"Such a barbaric place" He thought

The favor of the fight belongs to the buyer's side. He took the sword and threw money to the loser before he left the scene. People started spreading up and got back to their own business while merchant collected money on the ground and got back to his shop and start his business again.

"Wow" He exclaimed "That was…"

"As I told you, master, winner is the absolute one" He replied "This is just simple thing around here."

"Simple?" He wondered

They are walking though the market place. Everyone approached them and tried to sell everything they could offer to the new visitor.

"My lord, this is the best fish you can find here" Merchant showed them the worst and stinky fish Ben ever smell. He almost pukes.

"The best and sharpest sword for the great warrior" One yelled and displayed the sword.

Ben's bodyguards pushed them back but it was not over yet. This time, the bunch of female reptilians and amphibians got closer and surrounded Benin. They are rubbing and licking him seductively.

"Hey handsome boy, do you want to have some fun with me?" One of them said while rubbed his ass "You can cum inside us as much as you want."

"WOH" He exclaimed

"We will serve you all day and night" another one whispered at his ear.

"Ummmmmm, I smell fresh meat. Yummy." Someone snarled

"Go away, you bunch of skanks" Slick yelled "My master have no business with you. This way master."

He led Benin out of the awkward situation. He leaves the other three to deal with those people. He brought him to some kind of bar and took a seat. The other three followed him after they done their job.

"What the hell was that?" He asked "Are they hooker or what?"

"I am so sorry, master." He replied "Some of them are a hooker but actually they just wanted to impregnate with your seeds."

"What?" He surprised

"As I told you, winner is the absolute one" He explained "Every man around here is seeking anyway to improve their status by training and fighting all the time. That is the male way."

"Okay" He replied

"On the other hand, some women use the short cut to be the winner in the game" He continued "Therefore, they do not hesitate to fuck and get creampie with any stranger who has a possibility potential to give her the winner."

"Are…are you serious?" He asked

"It was and it will be like this forever, master" He replied "We will protect you, master."

"Fine!" He exclaimed "Let order some…WHAT THE HELL IS THAT!"

Snakes couple is having a sex on the table. He cannot believe this thing is happening in the public. He looked around and found nobody care what they are doing. People are talking and doing their own business.

"What is it, master?" He concern

Benin pointed and said "Don't tell me that also is normal around here"

He saw and exclaimed "Oh! Yes, it is normal around here. I believe that man won her as his prize and he wanted to show his domination to everyone around here so…"

"Okay, enough of this stuff" He yelled "Is your town crazy or me?"

"This is how we live, master." He replied

Ben was going to say something but then he heard someone yelling something. He stood up and looked across the street and saw the carnival. This could be the first time he found something similar to his own world.

"Hey, let take a look." He said "I am wondering what we will see and meet."

In the carnival, Ben saw similar things such as danger show, the mighty man and woman, foods, and carnivals stuffs. He is enjoying it like he used to be until he walks near the freak show booth.

"Gather around everyone" Mudfish yelled "Kids, you better hold your parents tight before you see this freak. I traveled around the empire. I went to the wasteland. Into the forbidden place, I found this female freak. Her unholy mother and whore had forbidden sex with the metal breast. She gave birth to her in the curse land. Behold, the half human and half metal beast. I present to you, the freak."

The curtain opened as everyone saw the female rabbit in poor cloth but her legs and left arm were metals. They chained her with iron bar .Kids are screaming because they fear. Men and women are yelling and mocking her. Ben is the only one who does not say anything. He does not scare but interesting in her.

"How did she have this hi-end technology?" He thought "This is the most and advance technology I ever seen in this world. I need to know more."

"Here everyone" The mudfish exclaimed "10 rotten tomatoes for 1 copper coins and you can throw it at her as much as you want."

Ben thought no one will take it but no. Everyone ran and paid the money before they started throwing rotten tomatoes at her such an unsightly thing to see. Ben saw that female rabbit took it like she did not care. She really has some fighting spirit, he thought.

Then, he saw the mudfish took something else. This time it was buckets that filling with dirty stuffs that Ben could imagine. That was the last straw for Ben to endure it. He has to do something.

"Master, we should move on" Slick said "Or you will get dirty."

"No" He said coldly "Slick, you said the power is the solution for everything around here, right?"

"Pardon?" He wondered

"Follow my lead, you guys" He said and walked directly to the mudfish who preparing buckets

"How may I help you, master?" He smirked "Do you want some buckets?"

"How much?" He asked

"40 copper and you can throw this stuff to that filthy thing" He replied

"I see. I take one" He said and handed 40 copper to him

"Thank you, master" He replied while counting money

"Hey, do you like this?" Ben exclaimed

"What is it, sir?" He asked while counted money

Ben throws the hold bucket at him. It was totally direct hit. Stinky stuffs are on his face. People saw what just happened and started running away because they knew what is going to happen.

"Do you know who am I?" He yelled "I am Tham Kench's cousin. No one in the empire dare to do this to me. You will pay for this. Boys kill him."

Ben found himself surrounding by thugs with weapons. Luckily, he was not alone. His guards jumped into the middle of circle to protect their lord. They draw their swords and ready to fight with anyone who dares to threaten their master.

Ben does not care them. He walked to the female rabbit whose is covered by rotten tomatoes. He kneeled and wiped it out of her face with his handkerchief. At that moment, she feels his warmth and kindness through his touching. She looked at him and wondered why he did all of this for her sake.

He said softly "Come with me"

"KIIIIIILLLLLLL THEM" The mudfish yelled

Thugs jumped at them as he ordered. Their weapons are pointing at Ben and his body guards. He sighed and slammed the ultrimatrix. The green light was surrounded him for a second before it faded away. He became the emerald dragon with wings. It was his new aliens. He discovered it two month ago.

"ROAAAAAARRRRRRRRR" He yelled and crashed with those thugs
