Chapter 18: Commandant

“So, are you the commander who insults me?” She confronted him by blocking his view. “Telling my attendant, that I'm not allowed to be here, and just stay inside the mansion to drink some milk?” She made sure that she uses a deep voice in her tone.

The commander stands up, and when he stands up only a few inches left on their gap to each other. And he looks fiercely down at her, the commander is taller than her, five-seven height with a bulky body.

“Did he think I got scared by looking at me like that?” She thought. “Who the fu** are you to be scared of?” She added.

“Tell me, who are you to insult me like that?” She asks him.

The trio who was looking at them was a little bit scared because of the commander’s look. They are afraid for their lady who was facing him.

“Miss, this is a training ground for soldiers, this is not the right place for roaming around.” He told her by looking at her eyes.

“Did my attendant tell you that I will be roaming around here? Did she?” She looks back at him with fierce eyes.

The commander frown at her, he didn’t expect Zenniah will look back at her like that. For him, is the first time he saw the fierce eyes of the young miss.

“...” He didn’t answer her.

Zenniah put her horsewhip on the chin of the commander.

“Hey... Commander, you insulted me, it’s just like means you insulted my father, the duke of this mansion. Am I right?”

“Miss, that’s not what I mean,” he spoke.

“Then, explain to me what it is. So, I can clearly understand it.”

“Miss, I will only follow the duke’s order and not just anyone, including you,” he replied stubbornly.

“I got permission from my father, so, what you will do about it?” She didn’t take her fierce-looking eyes down.

“I just need to hear it to the duke’s mouth,” he smirks at her.

“You follow my father because he is the master of this mansion and making the final decision of all. What if that final decision, that full authority will be given to me?” She smirks back at him.

“You will bow down to your knees in front of me if that's going to happen?” She told him.

“Pfftt... That’s not going to happen, my lady,” the commander said with a mocking voice.

This novel is published on a different platform. Support the original author by finding the official source.

“...” She just look straight at him. Other soldiers got their attention because of their arguing.

“Well, if... If that’s going to happen, then I will bow to my knees and will follow you, My Lady.” He used a mocking tone in the last two words he said.

“Did you hear it all?” She turns around to see other soldiers who were there listening to their arguments. “Your commander will bow down to me and follow my order if I have the full authority,” Zenniah said it loudly so they can hear her clearly.

“Where that confidence came from?” The commander thought while looking at her. “She’s very different from the miss I know,” he added in his thought.

“Don’t back down on what you said to me,” she gives him a smile of victory.

Zenniah removes her left white gloves. Then she shows her left hand what she’s wearing.

“That’s...” The commander shocks and speechless. The same reaction to the soldiers who were there saw what was on her fingers.

“Yes... That’s right, this is the yehtirou you all knew!” She proudly faces the commander who was speechless.

“Now... Bow down to me,” she commands him with a smile.

The commander gritted his teeth, he didn’t expect this will be happening right away. And in front of all his subordinates under him.

“This...” He can’t deny it.

“Are you taking back what you said earlier commander?” She smirks.

“...”

“Now... Bow down in front of me with your knees and hands on the ground,” she added.

The commander all can do was grit his teeth and hold up his irritation at the situation. Then slowly he bows down on his knees and his hands on the ground. The soldiers who were there looking felt insulted by their commander bowing to the ground.

“That’s enough! My lady,” someone interrupted them.

“Who was that?” She turns around and saw a man with sky-blue hair until his shoulder speaks up.

“I am the second in command, my lady,” she replied with courtesy.

“Why should I stop? He's the one who insulted me first,” she said to him. “The lady of this mansion,” she added.

“I know my lady; That’s why I apologize on his behalf,” He responded. “Our commander just doesn’t know how to have a good conversation, my lady. That’s why he ended up sometimes in a fight,” He added.

Zenniah didn’t listen to him, instead, she sits on the commander’s back, then crosses her legs. All of them were so shocked and don’t know what to do about the situation.

“My lady!” The trio was also shocked and calls her at the same time.

“My lady,” the sky-blue man spoke.

“What is your name?” She asks.

“...” He hesitated to answer her.

“I don’t like to ask twice, remember that.” She looks straight at him.

“... My name is Bluew, my lady,” he replied.

“That’s great! Bluew, gather all the soldiers now,” she gives her a smile while still sitting at the commander’s back. “I have something to say,” she added.

“I will follow your order my lady, but please let go of our commander,” he pleaded.

“I want your commander to apologize on his own. He’s a man, after all, a big one.” She said it in a serious tone. “I didn’t come here just roaming around or arguing about something, but because he insulted me first. Then, he reaps what he sows,” she added in her tone while looking at the commander's heads back.

“I’m sorry my lady, I apologize for what I said to you earlier!” The commander says it loudly, pleading to forgive him. “From now on, I will follow you and respect you, my lady,” he added.

“Then it’s clear out,” she stands up and gives her hand to the commander. Without hesitation, the commander took her hand, and he stands up from the ground. “That’s so easy,” she smiles while at him shaking his hand.
