The Fallen Hero King

Ownership.

Jay lay on his bed, staring at the roof, lost in thought. The last few days, things were awkward between him and Emily, but things were good with Vivian. It was fun to enjoy some time with her in different locations.

A hand was caressing his chest, "My Lord?"

Jay blinked, looking down at Ilma, "Yeah?"

A naked Ilma lay on the bed, with her head resting on Jay's shoulder. Her fingers stroking his chest, "are you thinking about Lady Vivian?"

"No, why would you think that?"

Ilma smiled brightly or tried to, "We maids talk - many of them heard the loud moans of Lady Vivian."

"Jealous..."

Ilma looked down, trying not to let him see her eyes, "I am...I shouldn't be...I am just a small maid. Of course, you'd marry someone like Lady Vivian..."

Jay stroked her hairs - with his palm on her face, he raised her up, giving her a long kiss.

"Hey, Listen! You are useful to...more than you know. And always will be. So don't think you are just a small maid. To me...you are much more."

"My Lord..." Ilma said with her eyes shimmering. She bent down, placing a small kiss on his lips, chin, chest, abdomen, her hands caressing his body as she removed the blanket. Until she reached his waist, "let me please you, My Lord."

"Jay!" Suddenly, the door opened, and Emily walked in on them.

"Oh, sorry." She looked at the situation and turned but stopped in between. She jerked her head, her eyes staring at Jay's body.

She narrowed her eyes, saying, "Ilma, get dressed and leave."

"Mistress?" Ilma was confused, embarrassed, but above all filled with dread.

Jay smiled at her, "go..."

Ilma blinked with embarrassed eyes - she stood up, wearing her clothes under the watchful eye of her Mistress. She rushed off as fast as she could, closing the door behind her.

Meanwhile, Jay pulled up the blanket, covering his lower body, "What is it? Lady Emily."

Emily sat down on the bed, touching his arms, biceps, shoulders, chest, "what are you?"

"Not rude?" Jay said, tilting his head.

"You look human, but I have never seen a body like this." She touched every inch of his body.

Jay stared at her closely - it was real... he looked human. But he was also a Hero. His body was trained to a point where it was near perfect. Even with his powers sealed, his body had reached the peak and a bit more.

That was something that bothered him - his stats didn't match the strength he possessed.

He wanted to find out the reason for that. Level 100 was the limit of the human. Above that, you became superhuman.

His stats should be the same as someone at level 100.

"I was born, blessed with this body," Jay said, smiling.

Emily glanced up, "don't take me for a fool. There is no way these are something you were born with. Only someone who had trained extensively, too extensively, could get a body like this."

Jay awkwardly rubbed the back of his head, looking away towards the wall.

"What are you?" Emily asked again, putting her hands down.

"What is this about?" Jay asked with a sharp look in his eyes. It wasn't just about his body. Emily wasn't someone who pried so openly.

Emily sat there silently before speaking, "I was 9 when I was married to him. He married me because of my talent in magic. But I wasn't just his wife - because of the magic contract signed, I am his slave. There are some orders that I can't reject."
