Chapter 255. The Orc Palace II
Dragon King's Harem Chapter 255. The Orc Palace II
The dancer continued to cast seductive glances my way, despite my stoic expression. She moved with grace, twirling around the room and swaying her hips to the rhythm of the music. Her movements were fluid, almost hypnotic, and the other guests seemed entranced by her performance.
Suddenly, she stepped in front of me, blocking my view of the other dancers. I could feel her eyes on me, and I knew that she was trying to seduce me. But I refused to give her the satisfaction. Instead, I maintained my cold stare and remained aloof.
As the music grew more intense, the dancer moved her body in a way that was both alluring and seductive. Her hips swayed in time with the beat, her movements fluid and mesmerizing. With every twist and turn, she revealed more of her body, her dress slipping off her shoulder to reveal her smooth skin underneath.
I could feel her eyes on me as she danced, her gaze fixed on mine as she moved closer and closer. She parted her wet lips and licked them, a teasing smile playing on her face as she beckoned me with her eyes.
Despite her advances, I remained stoic, my expression unchanged. I knew what she was after, killing me.
She shook her breasts in front of me, inviting me to touch them. But I knew better than to give in to her temptations. I could see the hunger in her eyes, the desperation to please me and gain my favor. But I was not so easily swayed.
Not wanting to give up, the dancer used another method.
She sauntered over to the table and picked up a wine bottle. She tilted it, pouring the liquid into my goblet until it was about half full. She extended the goblet towards me, her long fingers wrapped around the stem. Her eyes locked onto mine, and her lips curled into a sultry smile.
"Drink up, Your Majesty," she purred, her voice low and husky. "Let me show you the pleasures of this world." As she leaned towards me, I could smell the sweet aroma of wine mixed with her perfume.
According to unwritten etiquette, I should accept it.
I took the glass from the dancer's hand, I couldn't help but notice the mischievous twinkle in her eyes. She was clearly up to something, and I wasn't about to fall prey to her tricks. So, I quickly used my skill.
‘Analyze.’
[Name: Spirit White Wine]
[Type: Wine]
[Crafted from the finest grapes grown in the orc's own vineyards, Spirit White Wine is a testament to the skill and dedication of these fierce and formidable warriors. Every step of the winemaking process is carried out with painstaking precision, from the careful selection of the grapes to the long and patient aging of the wine in oak barrels. But be careful, this one is already mixed with a slow-effect aphrodisiac!]
'Ah, sure… she wants to lure me into the room so she can kill me more easily,' I thought.
I brought it to my lips and drank the contents in one swift gulp. The sweet liquid slid down my throat. Once I had finished the drink, I returned my gaze to the dancer who had offered it to me.
She nodded her head as a sign of gratitude before returning to her seductive dance. Once again, her body swayed to the rhythm of the music. This time she moved more erotically than even. Her eyes continued to lock with mine, urging me to make a move.
My system immediately showed the drink's effect.
[Warning! The Aphrodisiac is starting to affect you!]
I simply used my skill.
'Dispel!'
[Aphrodisiac has been neutralized!]
The dancer didn't know it and kept on dancing.
Her movements became more daring as time went on. She drew closer to me, and I could feel her hot breath on my cheek. She placed her hand on my shoulder, stroking it gently. I watched as she spun around, her sheer skirt swirling around her body like a gentle breeze. She gave me a sultry look over her shoulder, hinting at a sensual gesture that she was inviting me to explore further.
Despite her alluring charms, I kept my composure and watched her dance, my gaze fixed on her every move. Her body moved in perfect harmony with the music. Her hair fell in cascading waves down her back, and the beads and jewels that adorned her costume shimmered in the soft light of the torches that flickered around us.
But I replied to her with my stonic expression. My face was cold as ice, and so was my gaze.
Burz leaned towards me and whispered, "It seems that the dancer likes you." I gave him a sideways glance and raised an eyebrow.
He chuckled, seeing my reaction.
"She is the daughter of one of the clan leaders in my tribe," he explained. "She's known for her beauty and charm. And it seems she's taken a liking to you."
I shook my head firmly. "My decision is final.”
Burz's frown deepened, and he leaned forward again. "Your Majesty, I must insist that you reconsider. This dancer's clan holds great influence within my tribe’s society, and it would be a great bargain if you take her as your consort."
I turned to Burz, meeting his gaze with a serious expression. "I appreciate the offer. But if I were to sleep with a woman from your tribe, I would want her to have a status similar to mine and Evelina's. Not just a random girl from a clan," I said firmly. My cold expression returned. “Like your sister for example.”
Burz looked at me with a hesitant expression, "I'm not sure if my sister would be willing to serve you, Your Majesty. Glasha is a very stubborn woman."
I took a sip from my wine, "I know that.” My voice clipped. "It's a shame what your sister wants is to kill me."
