Hero of Darkness-Novel

Chapter 205: The Misunderstanding

An awkward silence filled the main hall after Szayel's sudden question took everyone by surprise. Even the sullen and nearly lifeless eyes of Vivian were wide open after this abrupt question that came out of nowhere.

"Hey, hey.. What the hell are you talking about?" asked Kahn in a flustered tone.

Even Vivian whose face was all sullen and ashen as she still hadn't recovered from the scary and inhumane treatment Kahn gave her a few minutes ago was suddenly brought back to reality.

"I just found out that I share a sense of mental link with her. And through the connection, I felt like she was in immense pain… but also pleasure." explained Szayel.

Kahn's ears perked up and his eyes were wide open after hearing Szayel's words.

So in conclusion.. Vivian was not only suffering but also getting ecstatic from all the pain?

[Masochist! She's a closet masochist!] thought Kahn.

Because only that could explain how Szayel felt that emotion from her inside the domain.

Huff! Huff!

Vivian huffed and for some sweat dropped from her forehead and for reasons unknown, her face had a red tinge all over it.

To everyone except Kahn, it looked as if Vivian had just done something tiresome.

[What the fuck?! Why is she acting like a holy maiden so suddenly?] he thought.

Kahn came close to Szayel and whispered the truth in his ear. The vampire clan heir then nodded in response.

But to all the servants present in the hall.. They all reached a common consensus in their minds together.

That their owner was a scum!

It was one thing him slapping her.. But after taking her to the domain..

He did the ding dong doo with the poor woman!

Vivian's figure also looked very fatigued and her long silver hair also looked a bit disheveled.

All the maids who saw this ordeal instantly got a very low impression of Kahn as all of them scorned him in their minds.

Kahn then ordered the maids to arrange the dinner table as they headed for the room to talk over the rest of the things there.

But as soon as they started walking.. Everyone whose eyes were already on the heiress also found something very odd.

Kahn also metaphorically facepalmed himself after noticing the change in Vivian.

Because after they moved to the dining room, Vivian started walking… funnily.

As if her legs and thighs were very weak, her way of walking looked very unbalanced.

This cemented everyone's former beliefs about the happenings inside the domain.

Little did everyone know that it was because Kahn actually stabbed right through them with this sword and then broke her bones.

Kahn felt like crying at this moment.

The torture he did to Vivian in the name of final warning also pleasured her and in return and his reputation amongst the people also hit rock bottom.

Even Albestros gave Kahn a look of contempt and created some distance.

Omega who stood at the far end grinned and gave Kahn a thumbs up as if he was happy that his master finally had some good time.

The whole thing was inexplicable to everyone. There was no way left for Kahn to redeem himself at this point.

[Somebody wake me up from this horrible dream!] cursed Kahn.

When they finally sat on the long dinner table and were served with delicacies and different types of dishes varying from rare monster's meat to exotic drinks.. This was far beyond anything he saw so far.

The new chef lived up to his reputation and served them the feast of gods.

But just when Vivian was about to sit, an obsolete command landed on her ears.

"Who said you can sit? Stand near the wall!" ordered Szayel as he gave a hateful look to her.

Vivian was rooted on the spot.

This clearly wasn't her day so far.

First, she was beaten to death by Kahn and now, she wasn't even allowed to sit and eat all the aromatic and delicate food that was just an inch away from her.

Albestros, who was a kind person at heart found both Kahn & Szayel's treatment of the girl extremely disappointing.

But these two brats were actually grinning even after their childish behavior like some sadists.

But to Kahn & Szayel, this felt like a little win as they couldn't kill the vampire girl and hence, even these childish shenanigans felt very pleasing to them.

"My hands hurt.. Pour me some wine." ordered Szayel to his stepsister who wanted him dead for a long time. He was thoroughly enjoying bullying her now.

When the dinner finally ended and Kahn went on a small stroll around the open grounds of his new home.. It was only him & Szayel at this moment.

"Tell me, mister Kahn.. What is your plan for the future?" asked Szayel as both the men tread from the lush green open ground under the serene and tranquil moon.

"Just Kahn is fine. We can be considered friends now, right?" he joked.

"As for the plans.. I think I'm gonna take a break. The past 2 months since I came here have been very hectic.

Many things happened very quickly and I still find it hard to believe that I am in my current position in such a short time.

Well, I did learn some harsh lessons in the meantime.. But I think that's enough for now at least." replied Kahn truthfully.

"I agree. Even my world turned around by a lot in just the past two months. Before.. I didn't even have any confidence in myself or felt like I deserved to be our clan's heir.

Everything in my life has been handed to me. But now that I found out about how the people I once looked up to tried to kill me just because I was weak.. I have learned a profound aspect of life itself." said Szayel as both of them slowly walked on the windy and open ground.

"And what is that?" asked Kahn.

Szayel took a deep breath and spoke with resolute eyes..

"That power rules everything!"
