After Alfred was done talking with Arius he left the room and walked toward the throne room in high spirits. Walking for 5 minutes he stopped in front of a giant single silver door that was the entrance to the throne room.

Screech.

Pushing the silver door open he Entered the beautiful room which had a giant red carpet laid out toward his throne and hundreds of military flags attached to the grey wall that covered the giant room. He walked over to his golden throne which had red stripes going down the sides. Sitting down he took a deep breath.

Standing to the right side of Alfred was a tall skinny man with clean white skin that was covered in black clothing and sharp glasses on his shapely face. He was the advisor of the holy kingdom who had been with the king for over 20 years.

"Mar, is there anything to report for today?" Alfred glanced at Mar who held a long list.

"Yes your majesty, the dukes would like to have an audience with you as soon as possible after that you have a meeting with the barons on land issues then ending off your day would be paperwork," Mar answered while adjusting his glasses.

"You may call the dukes here now I only have an hour," Alfred spoke while fixing his posture.

Mar did a simple bow before leaving the throne room to call the dukes over.

Step, step, step.

Hearing footsteps coming toward the door Alfred looked up in a confused manner. [It\'s impossible for Mar to be this fast, who is it?] He thought to himself. Knights on each side readied their swords.

Screech.

Entering the room was Illyria the queen of the holy kingdom who elegantly walked toward the second smaller throne next to Alfred and sat down silently without speaking a word which confused the king, he thought his wife was still outside with his daughter and the elf girl.

"Dear, why are you here weren\'t you outside?" Alfred couldn\'t help but ask.

"Oh my, am I being a bother dear?" Illyria\'s face was full of worry thinking she was in the way of an important political decision.

"Sigh"

Alfred couldn\'t help but sigh. "No you\'re not in the way at all, I just have a meeting with the dukes shortly."

"Oh, do you know the reason?" Illyria asked with a thinking posture.

"I\'m guessing it\'s about what happened earlier when I asked Arius to show off some 7th-star level magic..." Alfred could only curse at himself. [Those old geezers probably are gonna complain like they always do] He touched his head in annoyance.

"Well, those dukes worry about everything." Illyria\'s face scrunched up awkwardly.

Step, step, step.

Hearing multiple footsteps outside the throne room door Alfred and Illyria sat up straight in a dignified manner showing off their aura of royalty.

Knock, knock.

"Your majesty, I have brought the dukes!" Mars spoke behind the silver door.

"You may enter." Alfred\'s voice was full of authority that only a king or emperor could possess.

Screech.

The silver door opened to reveal three men who were all covered in white rouges with golden crosses on the front and sides. Only the dukes and royal family have permission to wear such extravagant clothing. Following behind the three dukes was Mars who simply wore a tunic with goldwork thread going down his black pants.

Arriving in front of the king, all three dukes kneeled on the red carpet.

"We greet your majesty," The dukes said in unison.

"Raise your heads." Alfred waved his hand showing permission for the men to look at him.

The three dukes raised their heads still showing respect toward their monarch.

"Speak, what is it that you want me to hear?" Alfred raised his right eyebrow.

"Your majesty, what was that heavy pressure which damaged the region could it have been an attack from a rival empire or kingdom?" A short plump man spoke what the other two dukes wanted to say.

"Ah, no need to fear, it was not an attack, it was an... experiment that our mages are working on." A little sweat went down Alfred\'s back while he answered. He knew he couldn\'t just say hey a 5-year-old kid can destroy a whole kingdom if he wanted to and I told him to show me 7th-star level magic because I was interested they would call him crazy.

The three dukes were in disbelief. Was the king really doing these types of dangerous experiments?

Another duke whose whole body was battle-hardened and his face full of scars couldn\'t help but ask what was on his mind. "Will this experiment involve a warfare weapon to counter high-level star mages?"

"Yes, you are correct, Duke Flames. What we are making is a weapon to rise are kingdom to a world power, we may be in religion but in warfare, we are far behind." More sweat dripped off Alfred\'s back anxious they would ask more questions.

"Ah, I forgot to say to your majesty we have another thing to speak of." An insanely skinny man spoke up.

"What is it?" Alfred spoke toward the duke.

"There will be an international slave auction that will hold the rarest and highest class slaves of humans, elves, dwarfs, ogres, beastmen, and monsters that will have magic collars on their necks to be able to control their every movement and action. Many kingdoms and empires have been invited to this auction and we were included on the list. After the auction there will be a giant party only royals may attend. Will our king and his family attend?" The duke finished speaking and waited for the king to respond

Alfred looked over to his wife who just shrugged her shoulders saying it\'s your decision. Alfred knew this would be a good opportunity to make relationships and trade with other kingdoms and empires so why not.

"My family will attend, when will this auction take place, and where?" Alfred asked.

"The auction will be held in the Han empire and it takes place in two weeks." A duke spoke, answering the king.

Leaving the palace Arius walked over to Eva who was talking with Jasmin.

"Eva will be able to find your mom today!" Arius spoke, getting the attention of the two girls.

Eva turned toward Arius with a wide smile. "Thank you, Arius. I don\'t know how I can repay you."

"It\'s fine just stay by my side," Arius responded with a smile.

Eva\'s whole face and long ears blushed from his words. "Ok... i\'ll... stay... by... your... side... forever..." She whispered to herself making sure no one could hear her.

Jasmin showed a beautiful smile on the outside but on the inside was a deadly war. [This little elf girl blushed at my husband\'s words how dare you, how dare you, how dare you the gods fated me to marry Arius, any other female is not allowed to breathe his preciouses air or talk with him. I must stay calm and show my beauty to Arius later and seduce him. Any other girl who gets in my way will pay!]

"Um, Jasmin you ok you\'re kind of scaring me with that smile..." Arius\'s words snapped Jasmin out of her thoughts.

"My apologies," Jasmin spoke in an apologetic tone.

"It\'s fine, by the way, I need to speak with you in private about an important matter I discussed with your father. Arius gestured for Jasmin to follow him somewhere private.

"Oh my, you already wanna make babies but I\'m too young!?" Jasmin whispered while holding her left cheek while her whole body squirmed in excitement.

[Host I sense danger from her..."]

[Same...] Sweat dripped off Arius\'s forehead.

"On the other hand, Eva and I have to go find her mother. I\'ll tell you later...haha." with these words Arius grabbed Eva\'s slender arm and ran toward the palace gate.

"WAIT, ARIUS WHY ARE YOU PULLING MY ARM!?" Eva screamed in embarrassment, her whole body going red.

Watching this scene play out, Jasmin could only smile like a fairy.

"My my, is he embarrassed he is 5 after all I am the older one in this situation but only by a couple of years wait...does he not like older women if that\'s the case I must find magic to reduce my age wait let\'s not get too worked up, ill ask him later. Jasmin walked into the palace followed by a couple of knights who were shocked to hear what their innocent princess was saying.

"Should we report to the king or queen about this?" A young knight whispered to another young knight.

"I don\'t know, let\'s tell the captain fir-." the other young knight was about to finish his sentence until he felt a cold silver object making contact with his body.

BANG.

A giant red hammer made out of pure silver made contact with the two young knights sending them flying into the wall.

BOOM.

The two young knights were knocked out while laying on the ground with scared expressions.

A beautiful young woman clothed in a red flower kimono and had long red hair that reached her back added with her beautiful eyes that were different colors one blue and one red easily laid the giant hammer on her shoulder while she scoffed at the two knights.

"Don\'t whisper about our princess."

"YUA!" Jasmin ran toward the woman and hugged her tightly. "I missed my favorite bodyguard."

"Princess, I have returned. I defeated the giant snake that destroyed the village." Yua bowed while still being hugged by Jasmin.

"Yua, good thing you\'re here I need help with a boy I love," Jasmin spoke in pure happiness.

Jasmine\'s words were like a bombshell to Yua who only stared at her before roaring in anger. "WHO IS THIS FUCK BOY THAT TRICKED MY INNOCENT PRINCESS HOW DARE HE!"

"Huh..." Jasmin looked at her bodyguard who she had known for years and had never seen her act like this.

"Achoo." Arius sneezed. "Who\'s talking about me?"
