Chapter 28
From the next three days, everybody were preparing and fortifying their kingdom with different types of mechanism. Even the alliance were all taking different types of training.
Arthur was also training to control and harness the Heart of the vampire. He even got some scrolls that his ancestor wrote down in order to practice and perfect it properly.
After a day of intense training and practice, Zeph decided to rest in his room. While relaxing on his bed, he heard a knock on his door.
"Who the heck is here to disturb my relaxation now?" Zeph grumbled inwardly.
Zeph then moved to get the door. When he opened it up, behold it was Lee. His father and the leader of the first family.
"Leader!" Zeph said surprised. Then he got down on his knee to greet Lee.
"You may rise Zeph." Lee spoke.
"If I may ask, why are you here leader?" Zeph asked while standing up but still keeping his head down as a sign of respect.
"I just wanted to check up on you that's all" Lee said smiling.
"Huh!!" Zeph said shocked because the leader only used to come and check up on him when he was a kid since then the Leader has not being coming to his room regularly. Hence the surprise.
"What's wrong?" Lee asked while chuckling." Can't I check up on my own son?"
"No it's not that. Am just surprised that you're here by this time. That's all leader." Zeph replied.
"won't you invite me in?" Lee asked.
"Ah, pardon my manners leader. Come in" Zeph said.
Lee entered the room and proceeded to take a chair to sit.
"Will you keep on standing there or will you also come and sit down let's discuss " Lee said.
Zeph proceeded to sit on the bed and listen to what brought Lee over.
"So first of all, I want to congratulate you on your victory over the Nightstalker." Lee stated.
"But it was Arthur who managed to fend him off." Zeph clarified.
"But you played your part in it too." Lee said smiling. "Anyway I came here to tell you to train harder and am gonna provide you the scrolls to further improve your powers. And I hope one day you're gonna be as… no more powerful than Arthur."
"I will make sure I won't disappoint you leader." Zeph declared while kneeling.
"Oh and one more thing." Lee added smiling. "I want you to take care of Arthur."
"I don't understand what you meant by that leader." Zeph said confused.
"I meant you should practice hard with that scroll and get so much powerful and then finish Arthur once and for all." Lee said smiling.
"If I may ask. Why do you want me to do that Leader? Isn't Arthur our best bet at defeating the Nightstalker once and for all?" Zeph asked.
"I know that and that's why I want you to get much more stronger. And about your question of why I want this. Well it's because I hate that kid's gut. The way he was talking to the council like that was, pissed me off greatly." Lee said while fire was coming out of his hands and his eyes were glowing bright red.
"Yes leader, you're right. I was also annoyed at Arthur for the way he talked that day. So am gonna do as you say leader. I promise not to disappoint you." Zeph declared.
"Great" Lee said while standing up to leave. "You will be given the scrolls tomorrow."
Lee left the room and Zeph decided to go to sleep.
Meanwhile while Arthur was in his room, trying to also get some rest, he also heard received a visitor.
"Hey bro, how are you doing?" Axel asked while coming into the room.
"Am doing great thanks." Arthur replied. "So what brings you here."
"I just came to check up on you and see if you were ok" Axel said.
"Am doing fine thanks." Arthur said.
"But dude what were you thinking?" Axel asked.
"What do you mean by that?" Arthur asked.
"Well I wanted to know what was going on in your head when you were arguing with the council that day." Axel said.
"Oh about that." Arthur said. "I wasn't trying to antagonize the council or anything. I just wanted to know why they acted the way they did. It kinda pissed me off."
"But the way you asked the questions was quite rude." Axel said. "I thought that a fight was gonna break out that day. I was kinda torn on who to support Incase a fight broke out."
"Haha, I knew what I was doing. Okay?" Arthur stated. " Besides am not a fool that I will antagonize the council like that. Even with my powers am not sure I could do anything to the council all together."
"phew. That's good. But I got to warn you, the council except your father are still pissed at you for what you said. So I will advice you to watch your back." Axel warned.
"Haha, like they could even do anything to me." Arthur said.
"Hey, don't get too cocky." Axel said. "You know how powerful the leader of the first family is. The fact that he didn't act out in the meeting still baffles me but that doesn't mean he will let it slide. So I want you to be careful." Axel begged.
"Fine, I have heard you. I will be careful mum." Arthur said while laughing.
They both laugh together and talked for a bit of time before Axel decided to go back to his castle.
After a week, an emergency meeting was called by the council and the whole alliance were invited to the meeting.
"Damnn it." Arthur cursed angrily while in his room. "What is this meeting about now. What do they wanna discuss again. And I just have an hour to get ready."
Just when Arthur was picking the clothes he wanted to wear to the meeting, a knock was heard on his room door.
Arthur went to get the door and it was Axel who was at the door.
"Good morning bro" Axel greeted while entering inside the room.
"Good morning " Arthur also greeted. "What brings you here? Aren't you supposed to be on your way to the meeting room?"
"Well am ready so I decided to come get you. So that we could go to the meeting together." Axel replied.
"Oh ok. I still don't know what's so urgent that they have to call us to the meeting." Arthur complained.
"What! Have you heard the news yet?" Axel asked.
"What news is that?" Arthur replied.
"Well apparently, the Nightstalker's whereabouts has been found out." Axel replied.
"What!!." TBC…
