"Leonardo, what's the situation?" Said Felio Grimo, The lord of Tulip Town.
"Your majesty, We haven't heard a word of the cats since they went to Wasteland Valley, I am afraid..." Said Leonardo
"This is what were afraid of…. It since that the horde has already invaded Wasteland Valley and when they run out of food, their next stop will be Tulip Town….."
"Your majesty, that isn't the only problem" Said Leonardo with a heavy expression.
"What is it?"
"…. Yesterday, I went to Angels, When I was going out this morning, I heard a commotion at the entrance of Tulip, there, I saw a young man with long-brown hair with two escorts, they had the Arcadia's emblem on their shields….."
"You an..."
"As I am afraid, Arcadia had sent an ambassador, he is waiting outside…." Said Leonardo while looking at the entrance.
".... I knew that old man would make a move, I didn't expect to be this fast though....." Said Felio while grabbing his head.
"Let him in" Declared Felio.
After that, Leonardo bowed and made a gesture, two maids opened the door, A young man with long brown hair ca in escorted by two guards, this young man was the youngest son of Titio Grero, Felipe Grego.
"To actually send his own son…." Though Felio with a bad premonition on his heart.
"Long live the king of Tulip Town, Felio Grimo, I , The third prince of Arcadia, Felipe Grego, is honored to be in your presence" Said Felio while making a small bow.
"Prince Felipe, you are been to humble, How could I not et you, however, this king is wondering, why have you co to this town?" Asked Felio
"Straight to the point huh? I like his majesty's forwardness. You see your Majesty, my father is extrely worried about the possible treat that the horde is currently representing to Tulip Town, as a Brother Town, we, Arcadia Town, can stay still, so, I have a proposal from my father, you see, My father had told that he would send Alfredo, the champion of Arcadia city, with 500 n to help Tulip Town, what do you say?" Said Felipe with a confident smile.
"It seems that the old man is putting my back against the wall…" Thought Felio.
"….You forgot sothing in your statent, Prince Felipe"
"Oh what is it?"
"What are your conditions" Declared Felio with a firm voice.
"Hoh, How could I forget such a crucial detail, it seems , that I , Felipe Gregio, have much to learn, for that, I apologies" Said Felipe while bowing
"…." However, Felio didn't answer.
"My father only wants you to marry princess Susana to , of course, she will get all the benefits that Arcadia Town has to offer, for instance, she will only have to change her last na to Arcadia, I know that princess's Susanna is your only daughter, but you don't have to worry, I assure you that I will not make the sa mistakes that Lucio Did." Said Felipe with a happy smile.
Felio had to try really hard to not walk and slap his pretty face to dead.
"You forgot to ntion that, since Susana is the heir to throne, The Arcadia family will have the control of Tulip Town" Said Felio.
"I won't deny it, however your majesty, I will be totally honest with you, you don't have a choice, have you?" Said Felipe
"YOU DARE TO DISRESPECT HIS MAJESTY!" Shout Leonardo, who couldn't tolerate anymore.
Imdiately, the two guards of Felipe point their swords to Leonardo.
"Stop it!" Shout Felio
"Felipe, Tell the old man , that I will not accept his proposal, if you don't have anything else to say, get the hell out of my presence!"
Felipe was about to say sothing, but he stopped, he made a small smile and bowed to Felio.
"It seems that my presence it's no longer welcod, so I will just leave, I hope to see your majesty again, goodbye"
With that, Felipe and his guards left.
"Your majesty…." Leo said while looking that Felio hasn't said anything since Felipe left
"Leonardo"
"My lord"
"Put the town on red alert, nobody enters or leaves, I want all my guards to prepared themselves"
"Your majesty….. you an..!"
"We can't defend against two enemies, so we need to strike while we can
In two weeks,
WE WILL BEGIN AN ALL-OUT ATTACK ON WASTELAND VALLEY!" Declared Felio.
.....................…..
"Your highness, are you sure we shall live just like this? We promise that you promise that you will take Susana back to Arcadia" Said one of the guards to Felipe who was calming reading on his room.
"Oh? But we will take Susana back to Arcadia" Said Felipe
"?"
"You know? Actually, my father hasn't told anything about helping Tulip Town" Said Felipe with a little smile.
"Wha- then..."
"Well just look, at most in a month, I will take Susana back to Arcadia and it will be as easy as taking a candy from a child"
"I have faith in the future lord of Arcadia, my lord Felipe!" Said the guard while kneeling.
"And your faith will be rewarded in the near future, I can't wait until my father gets old enough to past the throne… so I will give him…hmm… let's call it a little push, for that, I need that you and your brother to do a couple of tasks for "
"Your wish is my command"
After that, the guard left the room.
"Felio, you are so easy to read that is quite admirable, you will be my secret ally, for that, I promise to treat your daughter well"
After that, he closed his book and looked at the moon.
"You just don't love when everything goes according to plan?"
