Life as a Tower Maid: Locked up with the Prince

Chapter 1

Credits - Zin Novel

Everyone with eyes could agree that Albert Grey was a handsome man.

With gray hair that was a subtle mixture of black and silver, and crimson eyes that were like rubies perfectly embedded on his face—anyone would be captivated by him.

Further enhanced by his tanned complexion, his statuesque features made anyone think that he’s the word ‘beauty’ personified.

No matter who it was that passed by, they would stop in their tracks just to admire him.

But God wasn’t satisfied with his creation yet.

Having the skills that surpassed even a sword master, Albert’s entire body smouldered with muscles, so it was safe to say that even his body captured the hearts of many people.

Everyone just knew that he would one day be king.

However, the current king, Rosteratu Grey, detested Albert.

Envious instead of proud, the current king hated the prince because Albert was not his son.

Why, you ask?

Rosteratu Grey was impotent.

This was an open secret amongst the people. This was why he brought in a suitable heir who had mixed royal blood, and that heir was Albert Grey.

Albert had no parents, no brothers, and no power.

When he was brought into the palace, Rosteratu was relieved. Albert wouldn’t be able to gain more power than him.

But he was too complacent.

Albert grew up to become a great man.

Seized by an overwhelming sense of inferiority, Rosteratu framed Albert for a crime he didn’t do, and locked him up in the tower.

Inside the tower that was imbued with magic that confined him within, Albert was left alone with one maid. However, this was not for his convenience.

Rosteratu wanted to destroy Albert—to make him miserable.

So he chose a lustful woman who wasn’t shy about showing her desire for Albert, and chose her to become his maid.

The current king even gave her a magic wand to torment the prince.

The maid played with Albert to her satisfaction, and so she controlled him relentlessly with the wand just to fulfill her desires.

A kiss or a hug were easily coerced out of Albert. Everything went according to Rosteratu’s plans.

But Albert was not a fool. He gradually regained his strength, and one day, he succeeded in coaxing the maid to give him the wand.

Being the munchkin character that he was, he knew how to handle mana, and he used the wand to contact his allies outside the tower. From then on, he quietly sharpened his blade of revenge.

After only one year of captivity, Albert eventually left the tower. Then, he exacted his revenge.

Can you guess what the first thing he did after he got out?

Ding ding ding! If you guessed it right, then you get a prize!

He lopped off the head of the impish maid right away.

The maid died at once, not even having the chance to beg for her life. It was the rightfully futile death of a third-rate villain.

* * *

That’s right. The maid who died from getting her throat slit.

But why do you think I’m explaining this?
