Alicia really did not know what to make of the name of this place. She wasn"t sure if she should even go inside! She could not understand why someone would name their restaurant something like "The Slaughter House"! Ela looked at Alicia whose eyes were stuck on the sign and let out a laugh. "Ignore what the sign says it is actually a really good place to eat. It was named this a few years back when the owner Mr. Frell lost a bet with one of his friends. The name became catchy and brought many in the city to check it out giving the restaurant the reputation it has today. Because of this, Mr. Frell decided to keep the name as is."Alicia let out a sigh of relief as she cleared her head of all the bad thoughts she was having before walking towards the door. But as the got to the door Alicia could hear people yelling on the inside. "Who do you think you are!? You spilt soup all over my young master! That is a great sin on the Royal family! What you just did is worthy of me beheading you!"
"Hold on! Don"t kill him just yet. I will give him a chance. If he eats all of the spilled soup off the ground then I, Philip Alastine the Fourth Prince of Alastine will be more than happy to let him live." A young but arrogant voice floated into Alicia"s ears.
Hearing this voice and that name, caused Alicia"s anger to rise. She charged right into the Restaurant to find a young boy who seemed to be a table cleaner on the floor shaking in fear. The restaurant staff did not dare go forward because the other young boy named Philip Alastine who was holding down the young table washer with his foot, was royalty and they could not offend him! Alicia looked at this Philip Alastine who was standing tall and arrogantly. She walked right up to him ignoring the two guards next to him, raised her hand and…
*Pa!*
Slapped the arrogant Philip Alastine right across the face. "Who do you think you are!? Just because you are a prince does not mean you can go around bullying us commoners for a minor mistake. Cut off his head!? I don"t think so!" Alicia looked at this Philip Alastine who was holding his now bright red cheek in shock up and down only to find two drops of soup on his clothes!
Seeing this Alicia got even angrier! Who bullies people to this extent! Alicia walked over to the nearest table and picked up a bowl of soup from it before walking back over to this Philip Alastine with soup in hand saying: "Since you said there was soup spilled on you then that means you need to look like it was spilled on you!"
*Splat!*
Alicia turned the bowl of soup over right on top of Philip Alastine"s head. It was only then that the guards next to Phillip Alastine finally reacted as they drew their swords and shouted: "Impudent!"
The two guards charged forward towards Alicia slas.h.i.+ng down with their swords. Alicia paid them no mind as she used her foot and kicked Philip Alastine"s leg off the young boy on the floor. Philip who was still in shock from all the events that had just happened to him lost his balance and fell to the floor onto his b.u.t.t.
When the two swords finally arrived Alicia covered her hands in Magicules and caught both the blades before pulling hard towards herself causing the two men to lurch forward. When they were off balance Alicia then shoved the swords back towards them causing the guards to fall to the ground just like Philip Alastine!
Alicia bent down and helped the young boy up off the ground. "Are you alright?" Alicia asked as she brushed the dust off the young boy.
"Yes, Young Miss I am fine thank you!" The young boy wiped the tears in his eyes.
"Since you are fine, go back to your business I will take care of things here." Alicia turned her attention back to Philip Alastine.
"You said your name was Philip Alastine right?" Alicia asked as she stepped towards Philp Alastine.
Philip who had just witnessed his own grown up guards losing to the little girl who was around his age felt a bit of fear in his heart. He yelled out: "You better stay away! If you do anything to me my father will kill you and nine generations of your family!"
"Oh? Then let me ask you this "Philip"! Who gave you the right to dictate someone else"s life without a fair trial? Are you a tyrant? Are you trying to make this great Kingdom of Alastine have a bad reputation? A reputation saying that the royal family likes to pick on weak commoners and kills them for fun!?" Alicia bombarded Philip Alistine with question after question.
Of course, Philip Alastine although he was a prince he was still only eleven years old. He looked at Alicia who was scolding him and burst out crying. "I"m sorry! Don"t tell Royal Father! Whaaaaahaaa"
The sudden outburst of tears and apologies caused Alicia to stop her scolding and stare in shock. She suddenly started to feel bad as if she went a little overboard. But then she remembered that the little boy might have died if she did not show up, causing Alicia to glare at Philip Alastine who was raining tears and angrily yelled "Shut up! Why are you even crying!?"
