Chapter 2 - The reaction and the plan

The citizens of Blazevale were quite anxious about the death trolls,their future and the next ruler.

They would either start a rebellion or show respect to Prince Alkin Von Emberens because he is known as the 'Cruel Prince'.People waited outside of the palace after hearing that the king Alderic surrendered to Prince Alkin.He was a great king to his people but at some places of the Kingdom it was poverty.

At those places people looked forward to their next ruler because his Empire was rich in all ways,so they wondered if he could end their poverty.

King Alderic came to the balcony of the palace to have a public announcement to their new ruler.

"I am sure you people may have already heard what had happened,you have came here after all,now I introduce you to our new ruler,His highness Alkin Von Emberens"

Alkin walked over to see the people,the people made quite the noise and they couldn't figure it out if it was a reject or acceptance,because both were there.

Alkin spoke.

"There is nothing much of a change even though I took over this kingdom, your king Alderic will still rule over this place"

The people went quiet after hearing his announcement,they didn't expect this and they didn't know what would happen,but Prince Alkin didn't finish there.

"My Empire will goods and military power to this kingdom so this place will be safe and better than it was.Merchants will come from my other parts of the Empire and will provide needs in low price!"

The people was surprised,guards,Juno the princess Alderic the king,his wife Athena the queen were quite speechless because they didn't think he would do this kind of service to their kingdom even though he took over it.

Loud cheering came from all over the croud,people who rejected him turned to Prince Alkin's side.

"All hail Alkin!"

They showed respected to him,the king,the queen and the princess and the guards bowed at him.Meanwhile Darius was preparing carriages for them to return,he heard all the loud cheers and smiled.

                  ***************

Raimen Vi Ashenreach slammed his hands at the table!.which was a blond haired man with long hair up to his neck with golden eyes wearing a quite fine white robe.

"He has done it again,the kingdom which was supposed to ours is now his,DAMMIT!"

He threw flower vases and candle holders from the table,they broke into pieces

"Please calm down my highness,Even though he only has 6 kingdoms, we have nine of them!"

His war planner Traimus adviced him calm down,he was one of closest Nobles in the Ashenreach Empire

Raimen covered his half of his face and rubbed his scar.

"You don't know him,Traimus.If he wants something,he will surely get it.It is a challenge after all for what I did to him and to his family.I will not forget that day when he gave me this scar"

Raimen gritted his teeth in anger.

"Maybe I should just attack his kingdom,I have more military soldiers than he does now after all, it is my only chance, that's right!"

"Lord,Raimen.If you get impatient like that you will surely loose"

Raimen's eyes went wide when he heard this and his chocked Traimus and pushed his against the wall.

"Loose?,Me? To him?"

Raimen did a death stare at him and Traimus felt fear because Raimen was known to be crazy when he was in rage"

"My lord... I... I"

Traimus was going unconscious,his eyes went half unconscious.

A women with dark pink hair ran at Raimen and grabbed his hand

"My highness, please stop. Realise what you are doing,you can't get nothing by killing him!"

Raimen went calm after seeing her.The women was Shudo,his fiance.He loved her dearly and she could change his mind any time because of that very reason.She was kind and stayed beside him even after knowing everything about him.

"You are right,Shudo"

He stroked her hair

"It is not him who should die,it's him,Alkin Von Emberens!"

Raimen was the rival of Alkin since 11 years old,the hatred started since then because of what him and his father did to the Alkin's family.

                 ***************

The carriage arrived at the front of the palace of the Emberens Empire.The maids and the guards gave him a warm welcome.The palace caretaker and also his childhood friend Rufus came towards Prince Alkin and whispered to him.

"My highness,Princess Elara and Princess Evelina are in a quarrel again!."

"What happened, now?"

"Probably another fight about which of their favourite book character would win in a fight!"

Darius said it,which was a guess

"That is not it!"

Alkin was quite worried now because he wanted them get along but everyday as an event they would quarrel at for once

"Then?"

"Elara found that you had succeeded in taking over the kingdom of Blazevale"

"So?"

"Since you departure was secret to them,Elara found the truth from Yukiro"

Yukiro was their maid that was hired by Alkin since she was like a sister to him as well and he knew her since childhood.

"She sure had to say it"

"That's not the part of it,Elara said that "Our brother is going to kill a lot of people, it's like a hero on a war" or something like that"

He tried to mimic her voice but somewhat came like an unclear voice.

Darius laughed and mocked him

"You sound like a drowning bear"

Rufus got angry and said

"Atleast I am not scared of lightning!"

He said it like it was an earth shaking fact and the maids and guards around laughed and Darius looked at them and turned around

"YOU-".

"That's enough"

Alkin stopped even though he was entertained by their mockings

"I guess now Evelina said that I was a bad person or something?"

"No,she yelled at Elara instead saying she shouldn't say those words,when I tried to stop them they hitted me with a broom by grabbing it from a maid"

Both Darius and Alkin laughed by hearing it and seeing the bruises on his head.Rufus stared at them while they laughed at him feeling like a clown.

"Well,atleast-"

Loud crashings came from upstairs of the palace.

"You idiot,think about what you are saying"

Evelina yelled at Elara

"How about you atleast think about the situation atleast for once"

Elara yelled at Evelina back

"Says the one who can't even turn on her 'Nexis' at will"

Said Evelina to Elara mocking her

Alkin went to their room hearing their yellings and he opened the door and the saw the messy room full of broken flower vases and papers around the floor.

"Quite the one, aren't we?"

"Big brother!"

"Big brother!"

Both of them ran at him and hugged him tightly.

"Now that he arrived let's ask him if he killed them or not"

Elara said to Evelina

"Why can't you just leave it aside? "

"Because lives are important,big brother"

Evelina cared about lives and saw them precious while Elara's mindset was like 'if it had to be done then it should be done'

Alkin was neither was because he had his own policies

"I only killed guards who tried to kill me,count it as protection"

Evelina stared at him.Alkin came towards her and kneeled to her stroking her cheek and hair.

"I know lives are important,but I can't die,can I? Because you two would be alone and I can't do that.Atleast not yet"

Alkin made a concern face to show to his sister

Evelina hugged him!.

"You always have to say things like these and make that face"

Evelina knew it was trick to make her calm down because she couldn't resist the trick.Elara also joined the hug and Prince Alkin hugged them both

"Let's go to the garden,shall we?"

Asked Alkin to his little sisters because the scenery was quite Charming and calming there with full of flowers and trees with a manmade river flowing through it.

"Sure,why not!?"

Said Elara

"It is calming there,so let's go and have brother sisters quality time,can we?"

Alkin smiled!.

"Sure"

The three of them walked to calmed to get some ease at mind,they sat at the bench together,both of them leaning on both of his sides,watching the birds and flowers and trees and the river and enjoy the good breeze of the wind.Prince Alkin held them close and enjoyed their time
