In the king's chamber at the castle of Helgum, a man with fierce black eyes sat on the throne. His eyes were like a vortex that would pull you in if you stare for too long. This man was the king of Helgum 'Dalton Vanhargen'(100years old)
And currently, this man was in a 'serious' meeting with his two generals.
"How is the situation at the Eastern boarder?"
One of the generals who was a woman who looked no day older than 30 answered :
Sigh!
"Your majesty, the situation is calm....."
The King squinted his eyes as he looked at the woman. Her skin was tanned, her hair as black as coal with green eyes and a shapely figure which the green, loose, elegant dress she was wearing failed to hide.
"If so, then why does your voice sound so worried?"
The King had noticed this small detail. Despite the woman saying that the situation was calm, the woman did not look like one giving good news.
Sigh!
The woman sighed and then spoke:
"Your majesty, the situation is calm, but that is what's puzzling"The woman raised her hand and snapped her fingers.
After that, a hologram of red humanoid beasts with horns on their heads appeared. The beasts seemed to be shooting balls of fire everywhere destroying everything in sight without mercy.
"Since ancient times, demons have been the most irrational race among all seven races. This of course worked in our advantage since demons grow stronger faster than every race so the power balance was always adequate.
But now, something seems to be changing about them, their attack patterns seemed to be well organized and r..."The woman suddenly stopped speaking when suddenly, the big door of the room flew her direction with fast speed.
But since she was a general who had fought many battles with her life on the line in most of them, she was able to protect herself.
Bam!
She punched the don't with her first and it immediately shattered into hundreds of pieces which fell to the floor.
"WHO DARES BA... "The king was rose from his throne with anger written all over his face but all of it disappeared when he saw who it was. "J-James"
Standing at the entrance was a handsome looking old man with silver hair and silver eyes. The expression his face was no debate as one could easily see what it was... Arrogance!
Behind were two people, a handsome lad and a beautiful maid. The boy had his mouth and eyes open to the limit while the maid was shaking her head like someone who had given up on something.
...
If it were in an anime, Alex's jaw would be on the floor right now. His grandfather kicked the door in the castle, the throne room's at that.
Is he crazy!?
The old man payed not attention to the stupefied Aleex and walked to the king who was standing there with twitching lips....probably frustrated by his behavior.
But did James give a sh*t?
The answer is no, instead, he looked satisfied to see the king frustrated. If it were any other person who did that, they would have already been buried 10ft under the earth.
The two generals in the room did not show any kind of hostility toward James either and just looked at him.
"Hey, old man"grandfather James waved at the king with a sly smile on his face.
The King scoffed and sat on his throne:
"Isn't it weird being called old by someone who is older than our ancestors themselves?"
Tch!, Grandfather James clicked his tongue.
'Take that old geezer!'The king screamed internally when he saw James annoyed. For some reason, this little accomplishment brought a smile to his face.
There was a red carpet that began from the door to leading to the throne, only the royal family could set foot on it.
But, James stepped on it with his dirty shoes leaving a dirty trail of shoe prints.
Payback!
The King knew that James would not stop even if they went on it for an entire day, so he got straight to the point:
"Why are you here James?"
Grandfather James smiled victroriously seeing that he had won and then answered:
"For compensation of course",His expression turned cold and for some reason, even the air got colder, "Your sixth sperm hurt my grandson"
"...?"
"...."
"...."
Everyone looked at him with dumbfounded faces and then looked at Alex who was confused than the rest.
'I didn't get hurt'Alex thought but he didn't say it out loud since he didn't want to ruin whatever his old man was trying to do. So, he only nodded.
"Your grandson looks mighty fine to me"The king said as he moved his gaze from Alex and looked at James.
"Stop playing dump, your grandson told a certain guard at the gates to hit my grandson and by do so, my poor grandson lost his memories"
"But the guard told me that your grandson was the one trying to enter without paying the gate fee"
"Bullshit, if you don't want to compensate my grandson, be ready to pay the consequences!" Grandfather now looked hostile and his fists had been clenched.
The King and the two generals present now looked at James warily, for some reason that was probably unknown to Alex, the three seemed to be shivering.
Sigh!
"Ok, how much do you want?" The king gave up surprising Alex who thought his own grandfather was crazy for challenging the king in his own castle.
'WTF?'
All the hostility on James's face vanished and was replaced by a smile:
"20 Royals"
"!!!!"
