Chapter 19 - Ch 13 A step or maybe more..?

"As a leader, your knights are your weapons, use them wisely. No weapons will ask questions or talk." Eric utters to Alice. She nods and, "How about their decision in the battlefield, sire?"

"As long as you point the weapon at the right target, your weapons will not ask any questions and obey you." Eric replies

Alice nods.

"Before learning the strategies to defeat your enemies. Apprehend the needs to be strict. Battlefield is not a joke place to make any mistakes. Unexpected things happened and always do. Discussing with the other prime people such as Jules and Ethan. Ask about their opinion, rather than make them only listen to yours. If they stay silence, discharge them from the team. They are not leaders if silence is their priority." Eric looks at Alice with a strong gaze.

Alice replies, "Yes sir!". She takes notes of everything and mumbles the words.

"Sir, can I ask you something..?"

Eric crossing his arm and looks out of the window.

"What is your secret to be so strong until now?" Eric looks at Alice and sigh

"That's not what you are learning today."

"Well, actually, I need to know in case of anythi.. ng.. I mean I am 37 years old now, a woman and a representative. I might be exposed for greater dangers. I need some mental support from my mentor, that is you hehe.."

Eric silence and,

"You won't, because I will stay with you for as long as I could." Eric replies while looks outside of the window.

Alice covers her mouth. She feels excited as this is the word unexpectedly splash out from Eric's mouth. "I didn't no you are such a flirt sire, no wonder Duchess Nuri wants to marry off her daughter with you ... hehehe"

Eric glances at Alice and walk towards her.

As a step taken, Alice's heartbeat beats louder, she couldn't seem to breathe.

Eric stands in front of Alice and stare into her eyes.

"I.. thi.. nk that would be enough for today, thank you for today sire. I will do my homework!"

Alice bow to Eric and runs towards the door and goes outside.

On her way to see her mother, Alice puts her hand on her chest, "Woah, I think I like Eric hahahaha what a moron Alice please be on your right mind! He just said a few words and YOU FELL FOR HIM?!" WATF*K ALICE YOU HAVE LIVED FOR 37 YEARS AND NOW YOU ARE TOO OLD TO FALL IN LOVE BISH! DANG IT I WAS BLUSHED BACK THERE. SO EMBARRASSING!"

"What embarrassing?"

Alice jumps and is surprised by her mother's voice.

"Hello, mama how are you today..?"

"I am very good Alice, and.. what.. fell.. in.. love..? telll mee about i.. t"

"Oh, I just fell in love with this flower. So pwetty just like you mother but you are much more prettier!"

"Start to love people in age of 37 is noot a sinn and of course you can!"

Alice covers Mrs. Anne's mouth and shows a sign to keep quiet.

They both burst into laughter.
