The ego is just the ego. It is the same phenomenon divided into 3 realities - the physical, physchological (or however it is spelt) and spiritual - With each one becoming more subtle.
The spiritual ego can be identified with the idea of enlightenment and its benefits and that you will become a master a buddha. You should understand the ego, the ego is part of you the ego is a desire machine if you look at the ego it is one desire after another.
First you have desire to have sex, then you have desire to become a doctor, then you have the desire to become a buddha.
Yes, the spiritual ego likes to show that it is special it is good that you are aware of it taking place - you must also be aware that all these posts contain some ego in them. I know because i write mine with ego, but i do not worry the ego is a small part of me.
You are a King why worry about the slave? Whenever you want you will order the slave around, all you need to do as you know is be more and more meditative.
Good luck on your spiritual journey and dont obsesses too much on enlightenment or any desire, enlightenment only happens once so have fun during the journey.
