3rd POV
In the Capital of the Kingdom of Heart, one can see several carriages with guards in armor protecting and escorting people out of the carriages.
Kings and Queens, as well as Lords and Ladies entered Queen Grimhilde's Royal Palace, with their bodyguards wearing beautiful, pompous armor, which had more gold and ornaments than usefulness in combat, in addition to having beautiful but extremely fragile swords in the scabbards that were on their waists.
A man in fancy Medieval clothing announced the name of each Royal and Noble Family as they entered the Ballroom of the Royal Ball.
In front of the Royal Palace, Joseph's Imperialwagen finally arrived, with him being escorted by several Elite Guards, this caused him to receive attention at the entrance of the Palace.
He unfortunately could only take 2 Guards with him, which was more than enough, as they were armed with sabers and flintlock pistols, which were created quickly thanks to Duloc's blacksmiths.
Of the 10 tests conducted, all gave excellent results, so Joseph decided to first arm his Personal Guard with these weapons before arming the Police and then the Army.
"Announcing the arrival of....Joseph-Maximus von Farquaad! Lord of the Lordship of Duloc!" Shouted the man announcing the invited Families, with him having a little difficulty getting the tone of the word "von" right.
Entering the Ballroom, everyone's attention went to the man who wore a Black Dress Uniform, with medals and a saber that had a well-decorated scabbard at his waist.
"Lord Farquaad? I thought the rumors said he was a Half-Dwarf." A noble lady said softly to another woman while she had her hand over her mouth, half enchanted by Joseph's appearance.
"Is this Lord Farquaad? Hmmm, where did he get this Uniform? It is usually only found in countries in more distant regions" Said a bald nobleman with a beautiful mustache to his wife.
Joseph's 2 Guards also became a bit of a focus of attention, thanks to their beautiful uniforms, along with the Pickelhaube which had the Austrian Double-Headed Eagle as its symbol.
"Come on, gentlemen," Joseph said to his Guards, who bowed to him before following him, keeping an eye on the surroundings in case anyone tried anything against their Lord.
Joseph then began to socialize with the Noble Families that came to him, which caused the introverted side of him, which was still in an isolated part of his mind, to start screaming in anger.
But he talked to everyone with a smile on his face, trying to use his body's famous Charisma to his advantage.
"Announcing the arrival of Your Royal Majesty, the Queen Grimhilde! Queen of the Kingdom of Heart! Alongside Princess Snow White!" He said once seriously and hoarsely, getting everyone's attention.
When Grimhilde and Snow White appeared, wearing their famous iconic dresses, all the Royal and Noble Families started clapping, with many paying attention to the Queen.
Joseph also clapped his hands, but less enthusiastically compared to the rest of the guests, while everyone was enchanted by her beauty, Joseph was worried, good thing he had a saber on his waist and 2 armed guards to defend him if that witch tried something.
No witch can parry a bullet straight to the head.
'It would be nice if that happened' Joseph thought, with one less Fairy Tale villain in the World, he would have a better chance of taking the region for his future Kaiserreich.
It would even be better if all Fairy Tales that were contrary to his worldviews ceased to exist.
'Wait, why am I thinking this?' Joseph thought seriously before getting those thoughts out of his head, he would soon start acting like the Original Lord Farquaad, he doesn't want that at all.
Grimhilde seems to have noticed that Joseph was clapping less than the rest of the people, this made her raise an eyebrow for a moment, wanting to understand how he hadn't been impressed by her charms.
'Hmmm, really, really interesting.' Thought Grimhilde with a smile appearing on her face, with her previously being interested in Joseph's appearance, but now it interested her too.
People then began to wish Grimhilde congratulations, while at the same time paying respects to Snow White, who, just like in the tales, looked like a little angel, Joseph who was seeing this, was sighing inside.
'It's still difficult to compare her with her Shrek counterpart' Joseph thought, remembering the arrogant, sarcastic, and stubborn Snow White from the Shrek 3 movie.
Well, after what happened to her in Fairy Tales, it was difficult not to have a personality change.
Grimhilde, after receiving congratulations from everyone, was only missing Joseph, who went to her followed by the two 2nd Guards, who continued to pay attention to their surroundings.
"Your Royal Majesty, congratulations on your Birthday, may you have many years ahead of you, and may your Reign be long" Said Joseph as he bowed to Grimhilde, who nodded, having a smile on her face before offering her hand, which Joseph accepted and then kissed respectfully.
Joseph didn't want to have too many nice words, but he also didn't want to be disrespectful, so he was polite while at the same time not being like the other Nobles who were fawning over the beauty of the Evil Queen, the culprit for which Joseph had his back in a cold sweat. of concern.
"Lord...von Farquaad, it's a pleasure to meet your acquaintance " Grimhilde said in a respectful tone, while trying to pronounce "von" correctly, which made Joseph wonder how difficult it was to pronounce a simple "von".
'I understand it's a German word, but it's 100% Easy, for God's sake!' She thought Joseph angrily in his mind, he was thinking about doing an Anschluss in retaliation for every mistake in the pronunciation of "von".
But leaving Joseph's intrusive thoughts aside, he still had a charismatic smile on his face as he looked at Queen Grimhilde, before focusing on Snow White, who was standing next to Grimhilde.
"Your Royal Highness Snow White, it's a pleasure to meet you" Joseph said as he also bowed to her, Snow White also bowed in respect to Joseph.
"I-It's a p-pleasure, Lord Farquaad" Said Snow White, trying to act in a manner worthy of a Lady during her Stepmother's Royal Ball.
Joseph couldn't help but feel sorry for the poor little girl, the fate that would hunt her in the future, just because a Magic Mirror said that she would be the Fairest of All, thus making Grimhilde want her heart.
'Wait...Didn't The Magic Mirror say she was the most beautiful...when she's, like, 14?' Thought Joseph while in his mind, hundreds of Mini-Joseph were working at lightning speed in the mini-office while handling this information, in addition to remembering other information from Fairy Tales involving the Story of Snow White.
'The Magic Mirror said that Snow White was the Fairest at 14...her Prince Charming was about 31...' It was then that something clicked in the minds of all Mini-Josephs, which then clicked in the minds of Joseph as a whole.
'THE MAGIC MIRROR AND THE PRINCE CHARMING ARE PEDOS' Joseph thought, a desire was emerging in him, and it was to burn the Magic Mirror and Arrest the Prince Charming from Snow White
He would have to create a Division in the Police that would only aim to arrest and eliminate these types of people and beings as quickly as possible when they arrived in Duloc.
