"Sorry for yesterday" Elizabeth apologised.
Jax just waved his hand.
"Don't worry, and I want to ask you is that true late queen said you should marry me?" Jax asked. Elizabeth nodded.
"Yeah she did that. You are a child. Why should I be interested in you." She said.
"To be honest my mother said the same thing about you, that I should marry you, so be prepared to get letters" he said.
"Are you for real?" She asked and Jax nodded. "Okay so what about the thing you were working on" She wanted to the topic as fast as possible.
"Well I just need a place to test it, the best one would be one without too much importance in terms of like soil or mines and without life. Some desert would be the best, and I need you and Malcolm to invite people from Beast Federation and Elven Republic. The rest is on me."
"So you want me to create contracts with them to ensure they will not get hurt or attacked during test." She asked.
"Exactly and Malcolm as a supreme swordsman is nice warning." Jax replied.
"Fine I understand I will organise it, it will probably take som" Elizabeth couldn't finish because servant entered the room.'Why people always cut me off' She nodded at the servant.
"Your majesty, late queen Eleonora asked you to come to her and you sir Jax were also invited." Said servant.
"We both know the reason." Jax said, and Elizabeth nodded.
"Just follow me Jax" Elizabeth said.
...
"So you are that famous Jax a toymaker that is also creator of regeneration serum and a lot more. It's nice to finally meet you" Eleonora said.
"You flatter me your majesty" Jax bowed.
"I know, that you understand why I invited you here" She looked deep into Jax eyes.
"It's about your plans to marry me and Elizabeth." He replied, while keeping eye contact.
"Yeah that's true, I will announce your engagement at your next birthday." Elizabeth stood up, but Jax stoped her.
"What if I don't agree?" Jax asked.
"I can easily take over the throne again, and your deal is with my daughter and not me." She threatened him.
"And I can just go to the dragon kingdom, and use my weapons against you. I said that I will not use my inventions against you, but if I give Malcolm my weapons, and he decides to fight you. It will not be my fault" He threatened her back. For few minutes they only stared into each other eyes. After that Eleonora smiled. 'He is quite smart'
"So what you propose?" She asked
"I am too young for now, but I know this will help me get away from nobles trying to give me their daughters now and in future, but you didn't ask Elizabeth" Jax turned towards her. "What do you think about it" Elizabeth was surprised he asked her about it.
"I can't give a answer" She shook her head. Eleonora sighed.
"You have one week, if you don't decide it by then I will do that" Eleonora announced, and gestured them to leave. When they arrived in Elizabeth room, she asked.
"What do you think about it?"
"Well, even if she tried to cancel contract she can't because you accepted that royal family will help me." Jax replied.
"I didn't ask about it, why you agreed? I know the reason you gave is only part of truth" She said.
"You know me quite well" He smiled" to be honest with you, I just don't see why should I reject it. I will not lose anything by it"
"You know that I still hold feeling for my dead husband." He nodded." And I don't know if I will ever love you?" He again nodded.
"Do you think, I will say that loving your deceased husband and your unborn child is bad?" She nodded."I don't care about it, until you ask me to be your Arthur in bed" Elizabeth turned red, and Jax laughed at her.
"You little" She wanted to jump at him, but he stopped her. Jax snapped his fingers and around them appeared dome made from divine power.
"Elizabeth I want to you to create contract that say that, everything I will tell you stays here" He turned his tone to that of complete seriousness. Elizabeth did that, both of them signed the contract.
"I am not from here. I was reincarnated into this world, but I have memory of my past live. That world was without magic, and we created our civilization using stones fire, metal, and steam." Elizabeth was confused.
"Why are you telling me this?"
"If I need to have fiancé now, I want her to know the truth at beginning, if she can't I will not marry her.So what do you think?"
"It's not like I can't believe it. Sometimes miracles happen and people are ressurected or they can take over someone body. And I finally understand why you are so much different compared to others. So looking at people your age is like looking at children?" She asked with curiosity.
"Yeah, I am at similar mental age as you. Every daughter nobles want to give me, are my age it's like I'm a pedophile."
"I felt the same about you. It really feels strange to be in child body, and have mind of adult?" Elizabeth was happy that she had someone with similar experience.
"Yeah, but I can't do anything about it. There are some spells and potions that could help me mature faster, but there are side effects. I just wait until I'm 16."
"Do your parents know about it?" Elizabeth asked the most important question.
"I didn't tell them, and I don't know how. For you I'm just a business partner, but for them I am their son. If they know I'm not from here, they could reject me. It's the only thing I'm scared about." He smiled.
"You know I'm thankful you say that. And I agree to our engagement. I don't have doubts anymore, because you aren't a child, well technically you aren't. Also you didn't look at me like I was some meat piece." Elizabeth responded.
"Well to be honest, I found it bad to do such thing. Also I found you attractive, but it would be strange to hear it from a kid." Elizabeth laughed.
"Yeah I agree. Thank you that you find me attractive, but don't say such thing with this body. Even if I know that you aren't a child, it's strange to hear it" Jax agreed. Jax displayed the dome.
"I will leave everything to you. I need to make some finishing touches on prototype." Jax exited the room.
....
Few weeks later at Burning Desert. Burning desert was region in Dragon Kingdom. It's mostly used as death penalty, because of extreme conditions here, people who are sent here and survived and also escaped, are free. However in the history of Dragon Kingdom no one achieved it. At safe spot under a shadow made by building several figures were standing. One of them was a woman with dark violet hair, and violet eyes. She was 170cm tall, and had hourglass figure, and was dressed in black dress and didn't wear shoes. What someone could see are marks on her hands and legs that looked like heads. That woman was leader of Beast Federation. The Beast Federation was union of several micro countries ruled by different beastman clan. They also choose leader, which is the most powerful member of entire federation. This woman is called Enna. She is a hydra, in her human form. Other person was very tall 180 woman. That had green hair and green eyes. She had long pointy ears, and wear white dress. She was president of Elven Republic. Elves choose their representatives amongs the oldest and wisest of them, president on another hand is chosen by world tree which is the most important part of their country. World tree doesn't intervene in politics, other than to choose it representative, a president. Under a shadow were also Elizabeth and Malcolm.
"How long we must wait for?" Enna asked. She had strong voice.
"Just wait for some time Enna. We are guests here remember?" Said politely elf president. Her voice was calm and warm.
"Well not everyone can wait as long as you,Elora. We aren't elves that can live up to thousand years." Replied Enna. She didn't like to wait. Few moments later Jax appeared next to them. He bowed to both women.
"I'm glad to meet you beast federation leader Enna. And you Elora president of elven republic."
"Just do what you need to do" said Enna.
"Don't be rude Enna. It's nice to meet you too Jax" Elora smiled.
"Okay I will show you what I made." He went on the flat piece of sand, and threw few boxes. That started to connect. First they created a round platform. Next pillar started to appear. After that boxes started to create long and wide rectangular shape. Which started to have carved long lines along the length of it. Few minutes later it stopped growing, but then it created long legs that dug into sand. Jax opened it, and put inside cylinder made from neutral magic stone. Then he shut it up, and went back to all the rest.
"What is that?" Asked Elizabeth. It didn't look like anything she knew.
"You will know soon. Malcolm can you cover us using your aura?" Jax asked, to which Malcolm nodded. Everyone felt that some invisible force is covering them." Thanks, look closely at the machine I build." Jax touched his forearm that had control panel.
"What is that?" Elora asked with innocent curiousity. Jax smiled at her. 'She is like a puppy'.
"It's a control panel that allows me to control it." He started to click it, and the machine started to glow. Jax made it turn towards a horizon. Machine started to glow more and more, and then they heard sound similar to a thunder. Beam of energy shoot from the machine. Destroying everything in it's path, it even turned sand into glass.
"What was tha"Elizabeth asked but Malcolm was faster, he picked Jax and started to shake him.
"What did you do? What the hell is this!?" He yelled at Jax.
"Fuuck meee, leet meee dooown" Jax said.
"Let go off him!" Elizabeth yelled. Malcolm calmed down and put Jax down who was dizzy. Few moments later he felt better. 'Supreme swordsman power is terrifying'
"So that thing is called a artillery. It uses mana in atmosphere or in mana vein. You can also power it up by putting inside magic stone."
"You know that it was at level of supreme swordmaster, but without special properties" Malcolm asked pinching his nose bridge.,
"Well it's only 70% of normal power. Also if I remove all limiters it will be even more powerful" after that it was Elizabeth turn to shake Jax.
"What do you mean even more?!" Elizabeth asked.
"Is that how you treat your" Jax wanted to ask, but Elizabeth glared at him.
"It's business between us." She said.
"So lovebirds I don't want to interrupt, but why did invite us here?" Enna asked. She was curious why would he show them a weapon, instead of keeping it as a secret.
"Well I just wanted to show you a reason, why you should have agreement with me. Otherwise that kind of weapon can destroy your Legacy Stone and World Tree"
