"A propose?" Asked Alfonso"That"s right, A big event its coming to Leitol, the four big families as well as others families will be there, it will take place in fifteen months" Said Felipe.
"A big event? What event?" Asked Alfonso.
"That"s right, it will take place in Dragon City and it concerns the royal family, the Lockheart family, coincidently, you are the star of this event" Said Felio.
"My family?" Though Alfonso.
After a small pause, Felipe made a small yet cool smile.
"After all, the emperor is celebrating your funeral that day" Said Felipe
"W-what?" Said Alfonso.
"The last prince of Leitol, Alfonso Lockheart die three months ago with the horde, the emperor, in his benevolence, took out the t.i.tle of fallen prince and let you be "bury" in the Lockheart"s family graveyard. Aren"t you glad, "prince" Alfonso? You finally got back to your family, hehe" Said Felipe.
Alfonso clenched his fists, even though he didn"t plan to return to the Lockheart family, this was too much, even for him.
"How do you know that?" Asked Alfonso.
"Secret information form the head of the Veritias, let"s just said that been the son-in-law of one the most powerful house in Leitol has its benefits, anyway, the day of your funeral, you father will be doing a selection of the next successor of your territories as well as decide the next head of your ex-battalion, but only nominated people will be able to partic.i.p.ate, each house that is invited can nominated one candidate, however, the four houses can nominate two candidates" Said Felipe.
"I see, you will eliminate the compet.i.tion, and the Boltors will give you a spot, so their chances rise while the Pentagates chances decrease" Said Alfonso
"That"s right, the only possible candidates in the Pentagate family that are available for this kind of spot are Lucio and his elder sister, Victoria, the other ones are in the militia or are already part of a battalion" Said Felipe.
Alfonso didn"t say anything, after some minutes he just nodded.
"It seems that our business is done, I will be going now" Said Alfonso.
Felipe look the face of Alfonso and made a satisfied smile
"You might go now then, I will see you soon" Said Felipe.
Alfonso turned around and was about to leave the hall, but he stopped in front of the door
"…You are a crafty one"
Said Alfonso
"However, I will play with you"
After saying that Alfonso left the hall leaving Felipe there looking at him, Felipe licked the inferior part of his lips.
"Interesting" Said Felipe.
He then turned around and went on his way.
...….
"The princess is on the other room, you might pick her up, we already retrieve the other "good"" Said one soldier to Alfonso and company.
Alfonso nodded. After that he, Demeter, Cerberus and Artemis went on their way to retrieve Susana.
"What did you two talk about?" Asked Artemis.
Alfonso didn"t answer, he just remained in silence, after some seconds he only say this.
"Felipe Grego, he is a dangerous man" Said Alfonso.
After some steps they discover a beautiful figure sitting in a chair.
...
"Why did you tell him all the info?" Asked Sana.
After retrieving Lucio, Sana and Felipe went on their way to see him.
"Tell me, if you knew that your father will give you a nice and lovely funeral and distribute all your goods, why you are still well and kicking, how will you feel?" Asked Felipe.
"Enraged, furious and will killing intent" Answer Sana.
"That"s right, back then went I looked at Alfonso"s face" Said Felipe while remembering the face of Alfonso, especially his eye, he couldn"t help but smile.
"That wasn"t the face of someone who will sit back and enjoy the show" Concluded Felipe
After thinking for some time, Sana reach a conclusion.
"Oh! Now I get it, you sure are a crafty one my dear" Said Sana.
"But I must say that prince Alfonso surely surprise me this time" Said Felipe.
"Why? Because he fell for the trap so easily, well, you couldn"t expect more from the idiotic prince" Said Sana.
"Easily? He saw through it just like that, whoever said that Alfonso is stupid must have some mental problems, in fact, I am beginning to question who is more dangerous, he or his brothers" Though Felipe, but he didn"t say it loud, he just remained in silence.
At the end of the room, a small young man with brown hair was sitting on a chair.
"Nice to see you two again" Said Lucio with sarcasm.
"I hope you can forgive us, Lucio, I don"t want to be your enemy, but you pay a crucial role in my plan" Said Felipe.
Lucio looked at him and made a small smirk.
"And what makes you think that you can retain me here? I am Lucio Pentagate! Despite being weak, I don"t need even half of my strength to take care of both of you" Said Lucio.
Felipe only looked at Lucio and made a small hand gesture after that, Lucio"s eyes suddenly became blank, after some time, his eyes came back to normal, however, there was something else on his eyes.
"Y-y-y-y-y-you, what kind of power was that!?" Asked Lucio.
With some fatigue showing in his face Felipe only looked at him and then turned around, his pace was slower though. Lucio only stood there, without moving, no, to be more precise, he didn"t dare to move.
"As always, your power is incredible, I don"t understand it, though" Said Sana.
"You don"t need to, you just have to follow my lead" Said Felipe.
Suddenly, he stopped and looked directly at Sana, his right surprisingly turned green!
"With my powers"
In the right hand of Felipe, a small yet almost invisible green ring appeared!
"n.o.body can stop me, not even an emperor!"
