It has been 2 weeks since the battle in Tulip, Artemis recover faster than expected, now she could walk, however, she will need to use a cane for some time. All in all, the loses on Tulip were great, today it was a special day, because today was the memorial of all the people that day on that day. Inside the crow, a lot of woman and children were crying for the people that didn"t make it, and for those who did survive, Felio give them an obviation and a prize for their efforts in battle, however, the soldiers didn"t seem to be so happy about this compensation."This is the true about war, there is no winners and losers, there is just sadness and emptiness" Said Demeter who was looking from the manor with Artemis.
"Since we were children, we have lived in war, even us, G.o.ds, have seem so much blood that I don"t feel anything while looking at it, that was our destiny, starting for the war with our grandfather and ending in the war between our own children" Said Artemis.
Both of them were looking the memorial from Alfonso"s room. Since she could walk, Artemis came to stay with Alfonso for some time, keeping him company.
"Anyway, lets resolve our problems first, what did you and Felio agree with?" Said Artemis.
"The initial deal was modify a little, for our efforts, the routes of commerce while we constructed by Tulip and they will give the position of "right hand" of Tulip to one of us, this person"s authority will be almost the same as Felio"s, for least, they will send 100 slaves to work for us on Wasteland Valley" Explained Demeter.
"Was that enough?" Asked Artemis.
"Not really, if we wanted to, we could have asked for all Tulip, however…" Said Demeter while looking at the bed beside her.
"I don"t think he would have done that" Said Demeter.
Artemis also looked at Alfonso and made a small sigh.
"We don"t know enough about politics, if Athena was here then the situation will be different however, we cant make rush decisions, while Alfonso its in a coma, we need to pretend like everything its under control, at least until our injuries heal up" Said Artemis.
"Is as you say, Alfonso was the one who made the decisions, now that he cant, we need to relay only in our experience, however, I didn"t like to interact with humans in the past so I don"t know much" Said Demeter.
"As for me, I was always hunting in the Olympus, I don"t know anything about politics as well" Said Artemis.
The both of them were conflicted.
Just when they were loss in their own thoughts, someone knocked the door. It was a servant from Felio.
"Sir Artemis, miss Demeter, my lord summons your presence" Said the servant.
As always, Artemis wanted to punch this servant for calling her "sir", however, now she didn"t have the strength to do so, so she just made an angry face while walking to the hall with Demeter behind her.
When they arrived, they noticed that the hall was empty the only ones there were Felipe sitting on the throne and Leonardo who was behind him, Leonardo didn"t have the rush personality from before, this time he was calm, Artemis looked at Leonardo who made a small bow towards her, she notices the missing arm on Leonardo"s right shoulder.
"What a shame" Though Artemis.
"h.e.l.lo friends, it seems that you are recovering well" Said Felio.
"Yeah, our injuries aren"t as bad as it seems" Said Demeter.
"Excellent, what about Alfonso, how is his condition?" Asked Felio.
"He is resting, he should get better soon" Said Artemis.
They didn"t tell Felio about Alfonso"s real condition, they only say that he was badly injured and needed rest.
"I understand, the magnitude of the battle was something that n.o.body could expect, I own him an apology" Said Felio with a bitter smile.
He knew that he was in the wrong this time, after all, he didn"t expect that the two champion, Alberto and Lucio will appear!
"I had my doubts about Alberto, because he usually doesn"t care about this kind of battles, however, the apparition of Lucio was out of any expectative" Sighed Felio.
Artemis and Demeter didn"t say anything, they were upset with Felio and with all reason, however, deep inside, they knew that it wasn"t Felio"s fault.
"Anyway, we will only stay here until tomorrow, we have to get back to Wasteland Valley" Said Demeter.
Alfonso"s security was in danger here, so they needed to return to Wasteland Valley as soon as possible.
"I understand… actually, I called both of you because someone was asking for you this morning" Said Felio.
"Who?" Asked Demeter.
"She said her name was Cat one… she also had one little puppy beside her" Said Felio.
"Oh, it"s my stupid disciple" Said Artemis.
"So, she is his disciple" Though Felio.
"Let them in!" Shouted Felio.
The servants nodded and went outside, after some minutes, a young girl with black hair and a hook entered the hall, beside her was a small while puppy.
"Master" Said Cat one while kneeling.
"Raise, let"s talk in private, come with me" Said Artemis while grabbing her cane and going to her room.
"Well your majesty, excuse us" Said Demeter with a small bow.
"Its okay, don"t need to be so formal" Said Felio with a smile.
After that, the four of them went to Alfonso"s room.
......
"What happen here?"
When the door was closed the first to talk was Cerberus, who saw Alfonso resting on the bed, he made a relievable sigh after seeing Alfonso, then he asked.
"Its like this…" Demeter explained everything towards the duo.
"Injured soul… that"s troublesome" Said Cerberus while looking at Alfonso.
"yeah, we can"t do anything, we just need to wait for him to wake up" Said Artemis.
Cat One remained in silence.
"We also have something to inform, master" Said Cat one.
"What is it?" Asked Demeter.
"its about the whereabouts of the daughter of Felio, princess Susana" Said Cat one.
......
"And then Zeus went to the one hundred arm cyclops and they make then the three artifacts, the thunder of Zeus, the helmet of Hades and the trident of Poseidon, that"s how they won the war, after that, they banished the t.i.tans to the Tartarus" Said Alfonso with some sweet on his face.
For some unknow reason, this little crippled brat, alias Chronos, wanted to tell him what he knew about him, so he told him what he knew from his previous life to Chronos.
"HO! Hahahaha, well, well , well, I must said that you humans are well informed, hehe, its as you say, that"s how my stupid brats defeat me" Said the Chronos while lifting his sole arm.
"After that, I was sent to this prison and, as you see, they make sure that I don"t do anything else" Said Chronos while showing his missing arm and leg.
"I see" Said Alfonso.
"Anyway, I already get used to the idea of being here, however, it"s boring as h.e.l.l~, I am the master of time so technically, I can"t die, at least another person takes my place as the sovereign of time" Said Chronos.
"And that"s when you enter in the board, little boy"
"Be glad"
"You will be my successor, an emperor" Said Chronos while laughing.
