Chapter 16 - Chapter 15: A Princess’s Story

Ryan, Akira, Morgan, and Ella all sat down to talk about the whole revelation. "So your a princess pfft this makes the robbed thing some how more entertaining." "Oh shut up!" Morgan kept trying to stop laughing while Ella kept yelling at her. "So what exactly is Demimänniska?" "Well Demimänniska is country fare to the north of the Jotun Empire at the other side of the continent and we are a country primarily made up of Demi humans and my family has ruled it since the country's founding 300 years ago as such our blood line has last through hundreds of years of turmoil and hard ship and yet we stand above all and long side the Jotun Empire, the Asir kingdom, and the Kingdom of Vanir we are considered the four ancient country's." "But you guys have only been around for 300 years while the others to my knowledge have been around for thousands of years." "Well it's because we are the fourth oldest country and that's how things are." Morgan suddenly took interest in our conversation. "Oh so since your a prince are you next in line for the throne?" "No unfortunately that title of next in line belongs to Eleanor." "Wait what Ella is the next ruler?" "Well yes, but not because of my skills as a leader." "No it's because of your skills as a mage." "Wait how do you know my sisters a mage Mr. Sojiro?" "Well I can sense magical aura on people so I can tell how powerful someone is just by their aura." "Wow that's amazing I didn't know that." "Well it's not that important so what's the point in talking about it?" "Far point." Akira seemed a bit puzzled by how Ryan had answered the questions on succession and was weary after how he acted during that whole thing earlier as if, but his thoughts were interrupt by Ella. "Hey are you ok?" "Ya it's just something not sitting right with me." "Oh and what's that?" "Well it's just I would have thought Ryan would have been disappointed to find out that he wasn't going to be king considering he's the older brother?" "Yes well it simple my father believes that if we have my sister marry a member of one of the other nations royal families then it would strengthen relation, but a princess isn't enough so he wants to make her queen in order to sweeten the deal in that if they marry the queen of the nation or the future queen then it would make them the king of said nation an enticing offer don't you agree?" "I really don't see how that could be the biggest reason for it!" "Well its the truth has much as I hate the idea of marrying her off to one of those sav...I mean human princes it would better for us in the long run." Akira started fitting the piece together and started smiling as a result. Morgan started getting confused "What's got you smiling?" "Oh nothing, but please do explain how you got your forces this far into the Asir Kingdom without being noticed?" "Oh well it's complicated, but in laymen's terms I have a deal with the king." "Oh really and does involve marrying your sister to his eldest son?" "Why yes it does with the marriage of those two would formal an alliance between our two nations and we will use it to finally put an end to the cruelty Jotun Empire once and for all! Oh look at the time we most be off come along Ella." "I have one more question if you'll humor me?" Ryan seemed a bit more annoyed with this one. "Ok ask it." "With whole alliance thing to wipe out the Jotun Empire will that come before or after you kill your sister and put the blame on the Asir kingdom?" Ryan eyes widened as Ella became confused. "Brother what his he talking about?" "I'm right aren't I you don't really like humans do you during your talk about the whole marriage you almost called them savages not princes implying that you don't see them as equals, but as potential enemies or have I missed the mark?" All Ryan did was glare at Akira. Then he finally respond "I'm impressed I didn't think a stupid creature like you would have figured it out, but tell me what are you going to do with that information?" "Oh I'm not going to do anything well at least with the information." "Then what are you going to do?" "Oh that's easy I'm going to save the princess of course because I seemed to be trying for all the clichés here. And most importantly kick your ass!" "Oh please try I haven't had someone try this in a while now!" The two ran at each a began exchanging blows. Morgan had assumed this would take only one hit and the prince would be down, but no he was tanking every hit that Akira was throwing soon the prince took a stance and once Akira was in range he hit him with what appeared to be fire Akira flow through the window and landed outside. "As I figured your Flame mage." "Yes as not just that but I'm a level 175!" "And let me guess you put points into defense and magic?" "Oh you are correct which means your doomed!"
