Rise of the Cosmic_Emperor

Chapter 479 - Who Is Seducing Who?

There was no mistaking, it was him.

At this point, Hal had completely forgone the thoughts of bowing as he now turned his eyes away from the multi-colored-haired apprentice to the Prince he was attending to.

The prince looked slight but healthy.

There was a sort of benevolence about his gaze as he actually took note of all those who bowed to him and acknowledged them with nods.

Hal wondered if he knew his attendant was a part of a secret organization or better still, if he (the prince) was a part of the organization as well.

Pietro looked over to Hal and the blue-eyed devil could tell there was no sense of remembrance in his gaze. There was scorn though and it was soon understood why that was the case when Pietro yelled at him, 

"Hey you, why aren't you bowing to the Prince?" he asked.

Hal furrowed his brows not exactly sure what to say when the Prince himself waved his hand, 

"It's fine. Let it go" he said with that same benevolent smile before he moved on.

After one last glare at Hal, Pietro followed with the other attendants.

When Hal looked to Ehrlich thinking he would caution him on his disrespect at not bowing to the Prince, the buff man made no mention of it.

Instead, he watched the prince and his attendants walk out of sight with a frown, and only when he was sure they were out of earshot did he say, 

"Phony"

Hal did not ask what he meant by that and Ehrlich made no attempt to explain as he moved on to the next teleportation circle.

This circle took them closer to their destination but of course, they still were still far from where they were truly headed and as they walked, Ehrlich made no sound. He was quiet all through.

Hal knowing that this was not because he was suddenly conscious of the fact that Hal hated the sound of his voice knew there must be something else bothering the buff lackey of Princess Tanya Haron.

He did not ask though.

As they walked, they met many more inhabitants of the Imperial palace but they were not Imperials. They varied from guards to Maids to Eunuchs. All going about their business in the Imperial palace and to the service of the Emperor and his family.

The females all acknowledged Hal's looks and Hal always took the time to wink at them or lightly flirt with them. Which certainly seemed to make their day.

After the first fifty maids had fawned over Hal, Ehrlich could no longer stand the lack of attention to his own buff physique and picked up the pace. (The Jealous bastard)

Now they were no longer walking between circles, but were running at the peak of the speed their cultivations allowed them with Ehrlich more than a little surprised at the fact that Hal was keeping up with him.

Eventually, more than ten circles later, they were finally at an Amalgam of buildings that looked dignified and distinguished enough to house the most powerful family on the Haron continent, the Harons themselves.

Was Hal in awe of the sight?

You bet he was.

Anyways, at this point, there were no longer any Teleportation circles and both Hal and Ehrlich would need to navigate the streets between this amalgam of buildings to arrive at Princess Tanya's residence.

It actually took a much shorter time than Hal expected.

And soon, they were in front of a beautiful residence that was bustling with the activities of maids and was under the guard of guards.

They let them through once they saw Ehrlich and Hal allowed his eyes to roam as Ehrlich led him into the residence towards the lounge where he thought Tanya would be.

But she was not there.

An attendant walked in soon enough to tell Ehrlich that the Princess was waiting for Hal in her bed chambers.

Hal's eyes widened slightly in surprise but it was nothing compared to Ehrlich who's eyes became as huge as saucers.

"H-H-H-Her bed-chambers? But that is..." He began but the attendant interrupted him with her hand raised, 

"That is what the Princess said. You are not about to question her, are you? Because if you are, I will be more than happy to teach you that it is not your place to do so." She said and her eyes flashed.

Hal could immediately tell that this attendant was not to be messed with. 

She was dangerous!

Ehrlich gulped, 

"There is no need for that" he said.

The attendant gave a short curt nod in satisfaction at his words before she turned to Hal who was always happy to see Ehrlich put in his place, 

"Come with me" she said.

"Of course" Hal said with a dignified pose that looked quite good on him despite the fact that he was a degenerate pervert to the core.

He followed after the attendant and there was even more navigating as they went deeper into the residence of Tanya Haron and arrived at a beautiful door, despite which Hal could still smell the scent he had now identified with Tanya.

The smell of roses.

"He's here" the attendant announced and Tanya's voice sounded from inside the room, 

"Bring him in" 

The attendant pushed the door open after that and led Hal into a dim-lit room where the scent of roses was even stronger,

There was a transparent curtain partition through which Hal could see the large queen-sized bed the Princess' room contained.

There was nothing particularly special about the room other than the dim lighting but even then it still felt special.

And then there was Tanya Haron herself dressed in a smooth silk gown that emphasized her ample tits. She looked absolutely ravishing with so much exposed skin.

True, her usual clothing wee seductive but this went a step further.

If not for the good level of self-control Hal had, he would probably have been sporting a tent in his pants right now. And it would be all for her.

However, even the Devil should know when to bid his time.

Also, Hal knew what this was all about.

He could tell what all this out-of-character act was all about...

Tanya wanted to seduce him.

However, rather than feel glad at the possibilities, Hal was upset.

You might ask why?

Well, you see, he knew Tanya was not doing it because she wanted to have sex with him.

She was doing it to make him 'agreeable' to her suggestions.

Part of him wondered where she had gotten such an idea since from what he had noticed about Tanya, this was surely not her style of doing things.

While Hal did not know for sure, he was actually right that this was not Tanya's style of doing things.

Yes, she dressed a tad bit seductively, in gowns that always clung to her form to show off her breasts and her wide and sexy hips but it was usually more because she was comfortable that way.

This behavior of hers was out of character and how could it not be?

The one she had gotten the idea from was much more slutty than she could ever hope to be after all.

'What a sneaky Tease! It's certainly okay when I'm the one doing the teasing but, how dare you... how dare you attempt to get me revved up and horny for your hot body just so you can manipulate me?

How dare you dangle it like a forbidden fruit I am incapable of tasting?

How fucking dare you?'

Hal raged in his mind but kept it away from his face as he smiled at Tanya and actually bowed to her.

Of course, it was not a true bow and Tanya could tell when he used it to shamelessly look her from toe to head as he stood slowly, calmly back up.

She was not disgusted though. This only showed her plan was working.

"Have a seat" she told him and patted an empty spot on the sofa she was seated on.

There was no need to waste time with pleasantries.

Once Hal was seated, comfortably so, Tanya said, 

"First off, what makes you think you are worthy enough to know of my plans? To know what I seek?"

Hal shrugged, 

"I got you to invite me into your room just by saying no to a mission. Clearly, you value me. If I am wrong and you don't, then you can just send me off right now" he said.

While Tanya's expression remained the same, in her mind, she was actually agreeing with Hal while berating herself.

She could not kill him, could not hurt him, and while she might be able to threaten him to do her bidding, she ultimately decided to table the idea for now.

After all, if she could get him to be putty in her hands like she had seen Elsa do numerous times to other men, she could have him do as she wished with absolutely no issues.

She closed the small distance still between them on the sofa until their knees touched and then she stretched her right hand to his thigh.

According to Elsa, in Seduction, Talking was overrated. Actions speak louder. So much louder.

All that as well as any rational thought were tossed out the window (figuratively) as Hal placed his hand on hers which was still on his thigh.

Introducing Tanya Haron to a whole new world of pleasure, one she had never experienced before.

As she tried to hold back her moan, she looked up into his sapphire blue eyes and felt herself getting lost in them, she could not help but exclaim in her mind,

'Wait a minute, exactly who is seducing who?'
