Chapter 15 The Sexy Leopard She smiled like a leopard that could charm anyone to death...
A biting wind howled as someone pounded loudly on the dilapidated city gate. Two guards, engrossed in playing cards, initially ignored it, but the knocking grew louder and louder. One of the guards impatiently cursed, "Knock, knock, knock! What the hell are you knocking for?"
"Didn't you see the notice at the gate? No one is allowed to enter the city recently," another guard shouted.
The knocking continued, and the two guards, engrossed in their card game, grew angry. They threw down their cards, rushed up the city wall, and yelled at the people wrapped up like dumplings below the city gate, "Get out! What are you knocking for? If you don't get out, I'll take your ball off the table!"
"Open the door!" came a cold female voice.
The two guards were taken aback. Why was it a woman? Her knocking on the city gate was so fierce, and her voice carried an unquestionable authority, which made them very uncomfortable.
One of the guards rudely cursed, "Are you tired of living, you filthy woman!"
"Get out of here now, or I'll throw you in jail," another guard threatened.
The girl actually answered, "Okay," as if she was eager to go to prison.
The two guards, enraged, were determined to teach this wretched woman a lesson. They rushed down from the city wall, but as soon as they opened the gate, before they could even see what the woman looked like, two girls in tattered animal-skin coats rushed over and abruptly pulled her aside. One of the girls, with a round face, smiled ingratiatingly at the two guards, saying, "Brothers, please don't be angry. My sister was recently seriously injured, and she's a little confused..."
The girl sandwiched between the two girls flew into a rage, yelling, "Who's not in the right mind, you son of a bitch..." but was quickly covered in the mouth by the girl with the pointed face.
"Damn it! Are you out of your mind to come here and cause trouble?" a guard cursed angrily.
"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry." The round-faced girl quickly stuffed a small purse into the guard's hand.
The two guards opened the money bag, their eyes gleaming, but they cursed, "Get out, get out now, if you're sick, go back home."
Yes, yes.
The two girls tried to drag the girl who was knocking on the door away, but the girl refused to budge, pulling on the door and shouting with all her might, "Let go, you two idiots!"
The round-faced girl cried, "Sister Lana, come back with us."
The girl with the pointed face grabbed her other arm and pulled her forward, saying, "Aya, let's pull together."
"Let me go, let me go!" the girl struggled and shouted angrily.
Aya cried as she pulled hard, "Sister Lana, we will definitely find a doctor for you."
"Idiots, idiots, you two idiots..." Lana struggled desperately, but to no avail.

As dawn broke, a faint white light shone through the floor-length curtains. The roars of the zombies on the ceiling continued unabated, and even seemed to grow louder.
I didn't sleep all night; I was filled with fear.
How did I become a different person? This is terrifying, even more terrifying than falling into the Black Castle.
As dawn broke, I sighed deeply and got up to take a bath. Entering the bathroom, I dared not look at the full-length mirror by the tub, and with my eyes closed, I dipped one foot into the water. A maid's voice sounded outside the door, "My lord, the morning council is about to begin."
Ah, the Morning Council? What Morning Council?
I was so startled that I slipped and fell into the bathtub with a thud, sinking into the water.
"My lord, what's wrong?" The maid knocked on the door as soon as she heard the noise.
I couldn't answer; I accidentally swallowed several mouthfuls of water and choked, coughing constantly...
After a period of chaos, I was helped up from the bath by two strong maids, then dressed in a gorgeous black robe and had my wet hair combed. When I arrived at the underground stone hall, I was already half an hour late, as if I had been herded into it.
As soon as I entered the simple stone hall, a group of tall and burly generals walked towards me. My instinct was to run away, but they rushed forward and escorted me to sit on a soft chair on the highest step.
This treatment made me feel flattered and flustered, and at the same time I realized that the Morning Council was actually the emperor's morning court.
The transition from maid to emperor was too fast for me to adapt to.
One after another, the generals bowed and reported to me on the situation of supplies, internal management, and so on, their attitude as if I were their father.
Just as I was feeling restless, a deep, powerful voice rang out, "My lord, while you were seriously injured and unconscious, we devised several plans to combat the zombies." A particularly large, white-bearded old general walked up a few steps and handed me a roll of parchment.
I suppressed my panic and pretended to be calm as I took it. When I opened it, I was dumbfounded—it was full of strange symbols that I didn't recognize.
The hall was silent except for the sound of rapid breathing; some people seemed quite nervous about my evaluation. Actually, I was even more nervous than them, afraid of being exposed.
After pretending to look at it for a minute, I said in a serious tone, "These plans need to be reconsidered; they are not thorough enough."
"Yes, lord." The old general who handed me the parchment bowed and took it back. His full head of white hair and white beard made me feel a little uncomfortable with his respectful manner.
A young general couldn't help but step forward and say, "My lord, this is the result of our research over several days and nights. Please point out any shortcomings."
I was just about to make up a response when I saw the old general raise an eyebrow and angrily say to the young general, "Get out of here." His face clearly showed an expression that said, "How dare you question the lord?" The young general retreated with a sheepish look on his face, and I secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let's call it a day." I stood up, not daring to linger, afraid of giving myself away.
I slowly walked down the steps and slowly walked out of the hall... but as soon as I stepped out of the hall, I ran away faster than a rabbit.
I ran back to my room in the underground space in almost one breath. After closing the door, I clutched my chest, panting heavily. My clothes were completely soaked.
The generals inside the stone hall did not leave, but instead discussed among themselves.
"Lord Tendi, why did the lord leave so quickly this time?" the shortest of the Nag generals asked the white-haired, white-bearded old general. "Is it because we went to the garden too late yesterday?"
The young general who had been reprimanded earlier couldn't help but say, "The lord seems a bit off today." He couldn't quite put his finger on what was wrong, but something just felt off.
The old general Tengdi glared. "The lord was seriously injured just a few days ago. He was attacked by zombies before he had even recovered. How good a temper can you expect from him? You're lucky he hasn't caused you any trouble." He then began to reprimand the young general, "You must never contradict the lord in public again, or I will send you back to your father."
The young general hung his head and said nothing more.
I soaked in the steaming hot bath for half an hour, then closed my eyes, feeling like crying but unable to.
No one can imagine the fear and weakness I feel right now.
My current situation is even more terrifying than it was at Castle Black.
In Castle Black I lived passively, but here I am a leader.
I want to loudly proclaim that I am not a lord, but I am also afraid that if my identity is exposed, I will have no way out and will be burned alive as a monster.

He stayed up all night researching all the information about the Elven race.
Since I didn't recognize the characters here, I had three maids take turns reading to me. I listened very carefully and even took notes, not missing a single detail. The key to my return might lie in what the Elf Queen had mentioned: "Give the elves more space to live."
I listened to audiobooks until midnight without getting anything out of it, and I kept yawning, so I decided to go to sleep.
After taking a shower, I lay down on the comfortable and luxurious bed and closed my eyes. Suddenly, a soft, fluffy thing crawled up from the foot of the bed.
The pitch-black night was especially terrifying.
I was terrified, thinking zombies had arrived. I kicked one away and screamed in panic, "Help! Help!"
The "zombie" tumbled to the floor with a thud, and I awkwardly fell from the bed onto the carpet. A silvery laugh came from the foot of the bed, "Lord, is this a new way to play?"
I was so frightened that I became mostly sober.
A maid's trembling voice came from outside the door, "My lord, is there anything you need?"
My voice trembled as I said, "Come in, all of you."
The maids pushed open the door and entered.
All the candlesticks were lit, and in the bright candlelight, a bikini-clad beauty knelt on the carpet, her limbs on the ground and her buttocks sticking out high, like a hot female leopard.
Her clothes are called bikinis because they consist of only three pieces of fabric, forming a line that accentuates her large breasts and big buttocks.
I was filled with fear and trepidation, but she smiled like a charming little enchantress.
My forehead was sweating with tension.
"Take her out! From now on, no one is allowed to enter my room without my permission."
I don't care what happened between the silver-haired beauty and this little vixen before, but I don't want to have anything to do with her.
This is someone who whispers sweet nothings in my ear; they probably know me very well from the past.
"Lord, don't you want me anymore?" The little fairy's smile vanished instantly, and she cried as she was carried away. "Where did I do wrong? I can change."
The head maid hesitated, "My lord, this..."
My head was throbbing. "Hurry up and take it out."
Amidst the delicate, warbling cries of a nightingale, the maids led the little fairy out of the room.
I breathed a heavy sigh of relief, thinking that the matter was over for the time being. But to my surprise, the next day, the head maid led an old doctor in a white coat carrying medicine into the bedroom.
I was sleeping in bed when I was awakened by the sound of the maids quickly opening the bed curtains.
"What's wrong?" I asked sleepily.
“My lord, last night was the first time you refused Miss Pei’s company in bed. Are you feeling unwell in that area?” the head maid replied.
"What's the meaning?"
Under my horrified gaze, the other maids swiftly pulled off my trousers without a word, then wiped my genitals with a hot towel. The old doctor held up a magnifying glass and examined it closely… I was almost going crazy, but my voice trembled as I asked, “What… what are you trying to do?”
Even though it's not mine, I don't want it to be looked through like this.
“My lord, you should seek medical attention as soon as possible,” a maid said, placing a hot towel back into the basin. “That way you won’t be unable to produce an heir.”
Oh? I'm speechless with despair.
Another maid opened the medicine box and handed the old doctor a pair of silver pliers. I watched in horror as the old doctor was about to use the pliers to pull it out. "No, no, don't..."
"Don't be afraid, it won't hurt at all," the old doctor reassured him.
With a bang, I frantically pushed the old doctor onto the carpet, and without caring that my wound hadn't healed, I jumped off the bed and ran away.
"My lord..." The maids' panicked cries came from behind me, and I ran even faster.
I ran into the corridor and bumped into a few maids who were sweeping. The maids covered their eyes and gasped in surprise. Only then did I realize that I had forgotten to put on my pants. I quickly covered my crotch with my hands and ran forward in a disheveled state. My face was burning hot. Oh my god, running naked is no joke. I felt like I wanted to die.
