Right after getting permission from Dan, Rex patted the girl and then marched forward.
He asked, "Did your clothes become dirty because of her?"
He replied with an angry expression, "Yes."
"Because of this slave…"
"Ahem, I mean, because of this thing, my precious clothes were ruined."
"So how are you going to pay for that?", he asked while showing off his shirt.
Rex clenched his fist as if he was controlling his anger. He wanted to punch the man completely for what he did a second ago but he controlled himself, for the time being at least.
"Yes, how much should I pay?", Rex asked.
"Ha…"
"You are asking as if you have all the money in the world."
"You beggars can't afford it. Just bow and beg for forgiveness. Then I might think about forgiving you.". he said quite arrogantly.
The guards had sympathy for Rex and the girl. The guards felt that they were pitiful, but none of them came forward to stop the injustice that was happening.
Every one of them had seen that it was the man's fault, yet they did nothing and just stood there.
It was probably because the person was their superior but still, there was not even a single voice of rebellion or help.
"Just tell me, how much did this piece of cloth cost?", Rex asked.
"…", the person stared at Rex who asked this with a heavy tone.
*slap*
He slapped on Rex's cheek now quite hard.
"How dare you raise your voice in front of me?"
"Who do you think you are?", the person asked.
"Ha…"
"Is this how you hit her?", Rex asked.
The man was further infuriated and swung his hand for another slap. But this time, Rex caught his hand.
"You!"
"How dare you touch me!?", he asked.
But Rex didn't give a sh*t about what he said. He was angry right now and just ended up twisting his right arm completely.
*crack*
"Arghh!", the man shouted because of the immense pain that he suffered.
He could see his hand that was twisted which caused even more pain. Yes, just the visual was more than enough to make one faint!
He started rolling on the ground while holding his broken arm with the other hand.
The guards rushed towards Rex with their spears and surrounded him.
"How dare you do this!?"
"How dare you twist his arm?", one of them raised his voice.
He asked so loudly that the leader could hear it, but then, he slowly whispered, "Good job, brother."
Rex understood what they were doing. They just wanted to look good in front of the leader while in reality, they were with Rex and were happy for what he did.
"I felt as if all my pent-up anger on him vanished after seeing him do this.", said another guard in low voice ensuring that the leader didn't hear.
Rex smiled when they said that. The little girl too chuckled because of the guards.
She was initially scared because they suddenly surrounded them, but now that she knew they were with Rex, she started losing up as well.
The man got up and then started to shout.
"How dare you!?"
"Guards, kill them!", he ordered to guards to kill Rex and the little girl.
All the guards suddenly started to stare at him and questioned his judgment when he said that.
Others who were near the roads saw all this drama. Even they too knew what was going on and knew that the leader was in the wrong right now.
But they couldn't do anything. All they did was pass by while pretending as if nothing had happened.
Regardless, the guards didn't obey him.
He then raised his voice yet again, "Do you want to be removed from work!?"
"How dare you ignore my orders!", he shouted at the guards.
His hand was twisted because of which he was suffering from immense pain. It was visible on his face since he was drenched in tears. Also, his face had turned red like a tomato.
"Look here man, I don't want to cause any trouble."
"But if you keep provoking me…", Rex walked towards the leader while smiling as if this all didn't matter to him.
"I will fu*king kill you!", he glared when he said this.
His facial expression did a total of 180 degrees when he talked about killing. His eyes suddenly glowed with red light and he seemed quite intimidating.
He then cast a healing spell on the person and let him go. The leader ran away while saying, "When I inform this to her highness, you will pay for it!"
"Sigh, some people never change.", Rex murmured.
He then turned back to see the guards smiling and holding the girl's hands.
They were attracted towards her just like how Rex was attracted earlier.
She too smiled and thanked them which looked quite cute. They were mesmerized because of the little princess.
The guard, who had left earlier to inform Her Highness, returned.
"Her Highness has granted you the permission to enter the palace.", he said.
Rex then held the girl's hand and walked inside the palace. He soon arrived inside the palace and then climbed the stairs to reach the room where the eldest princess of the kingdom was asleep in her bed.
She seemed to be his age – 16.
Rex didn't actually go near her. As soon as he had entered the room, the Queen approached him.
"So, you are the one who said about curing my daughter.", she said in a low voice.
Rex nodded his head and greeted her politely, as a royal would.
"Greetings to the Queen of the Kingdom.", he said politely.
The little girl followed what Rex did and greeted her too while saying the exact same words.
Usually, the greeting pose of the males was bowing and placing their right hand on the left side of their chest. As for females, they were supposed to lift their skirts from both sides only by a bit and bow their heads.
The girl didn't know that and did exactly what Rex did which made her nothing more than a clown.
The Queen burst into laughter when she saw this.
