Rise Of The Cosmic_Emperor

That was the only explanation that made sense. After all, Hal, from what Doug had sensed in the bandit camp, was only at the mid-stage of the Cosmic Phenomenon realm, and the ladies with him were most likely at the same level of strength. 

They could not have taken down thousands of men all on their own.

In fact, since Red Beard was at the Late stage of the Cosmic Phenomenon Realm and confident of defeating the Mayor who was at the peak stage of the Cosmic phenomenon Realm, Hal could not possibly have killed him by himself.

So, in all honesty, while the Mayor was taking all of Hal's disrespect, he was only doing so because Hal could still be a genuine asset. Also, it would do well to have whatever force backing Hal to be on his side and not against him.

He was not scared of Hal...

The Mayor cleared his throat, 

"Very well, how much would it cost us if we were so adamant to get you to fight for Dell city" he asked and interlocked his fingers.

Hal smirked but it was Rita who spoke, 

"How about... Everything you have in your Vault?" She said, obviously referring to the Mayor and his family's own wealth. Not yet counting what belonged to the city itself.

*Bam!"

A man slammed his palm against the desk in annoyance, 

"That is preposterous!" He said.

Rita turned her head at him, 

"Oh? Is that so? Then what if I told you that was just to reward us for defeating Red Beard. Only after that will we actually consider fighting for the city and that should only cost, oh I don't know, everything in the city's coffers."

"You are going too far" said someone else and Hal sighed, 

"Well, I guess we cannot come to an agreement so don't insult us with anything lower than what Rita has already stated" He said and took a swig of wine.

While everyone else saw this all as an insult, Bertha saw this as a display of dominance. One that really got her juices flowing.

There was someone else who did not really see it as an insult either and that was none other than the Mayor.

The way he saw it, Hal and the ladies were just not interested in fighting for the city and as such were increasing the price of their services to such ridiculous heights.

"Well, clearly you do not wish to be tied to this city. So I will understand your wishes and forgive your disrespect. While we cannot give you all we have as reward for killing Red Beard, we will still try to compensate you adequately.

Also, it would gladen my heart to have you stay in my castle for as long as you are in this city" he said.

"Father, how can you possibly reward such disrespectful behavior." Julie said. She was not the only one thinking that way and many of those present eyed Doug as they felt he was the one whose words were causing such leniency in the mayor.

Hal stood up and so did the ladies, 

"Thanks for the meal and hospitality" he said but there was no actual sense of gratitude to be observed on his face.

He and the ladies left without another look back and followed a maid who the Mayor had summoned to lead them to the many empty rooms in the Castle.

Once they were out of sight, no one first said a word, and then, 

"My lord, I cannot believe you allowed such a level of disrespect. In your own home no less. And you are not entirely to blame. It's that bastard Doug who has filled you with so many less than certified news and is hampering your reactions." One of the notable men at the table.

"Yes. We understand that he and those ladies must be capable but should they try any funny business, we would have been here to make sure they could not attack you." Said another and he cracked his knuckles to prove his point.

"Yes. We don't fear them. So what If they took down Red Beard and his band of bandits, we shall take them down with our combined might" said another.

It was amazing how these idiots could so easily gloss over the fact that the numbers of individuals Hal and his ladies had seemingly taken down on their own numbered in the thousands.

Doug would never admit it but even he wondered why the Mayor had allowed this insult. Especially since the two has already concluded that Hal and the ladies must have had help to take down Red Beard's band of Bandits.

The Mayor took a deep breath, 

"I would like to remind you all that I am no fool. I know exactly what I am doing and will truly appreciate it if you all shut the fuck up" he said before returning his attention to his meal.

...

Later that night...

All the guests had finally left. None of them felt pressured to leave early just because Hal and the ladies who the dinner had been held in honor of had left. They took their sweet time and only left when they were filled. 

Julie and her husband who lived in the castle left for their room and after the Mayor said he had things to do in his study, Bertha told him she was quite tired and left to rest in their room.

However, before reaching said room, she changed her direction and went instead towards the wing of the castle she knew the visitors would be.

When she arrived at the wing, a sweet scent which she remembered to belong to Hal was what led her to the room he was in and once she pushed the door open, she checked around with her perception to ascertain that he was alone.

Then she slowly approached the bed where Hal was breathing evenly with one arm over his face.

Bertha did not second guess herself as she set about unbuckling Hal's pants to reach inside and pull out his flaccid cock which from the moonlight shining in through the window was incredibly beautiful.

She had thought of doing this all through the dinner and now that she could finally do so, she had no intentions of being indecisive.

Confidently, she stretched out her tongue to give his cock a lick and she trembled from how good it tasted.

It was then she felt his eyes on her.

Hal, who she was sure had never truly been asleep was now propping himself with his elbows while he looked down at her, 

"Well, far be it for me to stop you" he said with a smile.

Bertha smiled lightly and then took his cock head into her mouth and sucked on it while stroking the rest of his length in a careful manner.

Soon, The cock head as well as the rest of Hal's incredible organ was at full length and looking quite intimidating.

Bertha gulped and got to worshipping it with her tongue and getting it slick with her spit while she continued to stroke him. Getting faster the more she slobbered.

Hal groaned at how good it felt to have his cock stimulated by this mature beauty. Especially when she seemed absolutely determined to milk him for all he was worth.
