The supreme sovereign system

Chapter 56 - Before The Battle



"Your majesty, we are four days away from Wasteland Valley" Said Leonardo.

It has been 2 days since He and the army of Tulip left Tulip town, they prepare for a long time before this journey, they had to take out all the army they could achieve, in fact, some people here weren't even soldiers, they were just young men who happened to be healthy a such, they could go, in other words, they were basically going to be meat shield.

"Thanks Leonardo….. haa…. How many years has gone by since I had my last battle" Said Felio while looking at his sword.

This sword was the legacy of the Gremio family, it was called the Lion's heart, quite the imposing name.

"How are our forces?" Asked Felio

"They are scared, some of them are in their first battle after all, nevertheless, I think they are in got shape" Said Leonardo.

"… Then that's good , our opponent this time are beast, this has their pros and cons, the pros are that they are not that smart, so they can't plan any strategy they will just attack, however, that's also their biggest advantage, they are savage and brutal, they only know how to battle, I think... I think a lot of us will not return to Tulip Town" Said Leonardo with a heavy expression.

"…. I know it" Said Felio while looking at his troops.

"So young….and yet…." Thought Felio.

Sigh...

After a small sight, Felio put aside his thoughts and looked forward.

"Leonardo, promise me something."

"Your wish is my command"

"If….if we lose the battle…. You will take Susana away and hide her" Said Felio.

"YOUR MAJESTY! , Even if I had to day I will sure you return to Tulip Town!"

"… I cant Leonardo…. I cant just abandon the boat that sinks….. All I wanted was for Susana to be happy…. How could I know that Lucio would…..I cant repair what I did to my only daughter that day…..so I am not asking you this as the king of Tulip Town, but as a friend." Said Felio while looking at Leonardo.

Leonardo just looked down and didn't say anything.

.....................…

[Tulip Town]

It was night in Tulip Town, as the town of desires, usually would be livelier than ever at this hour, however, it was completely silent.

[Gremio Castle]

In a dark room a girl was lying down on her bed, her room wasn't so luxury as one would think giving the fact that this lady wasn't just a nobody, she was the princess of Tulip Town as well as the only daughter of Felio Gremio, Susana Gremio.

"Father….. I hope you return safely.." Murmured the young girl.

She touched her small stomach and felt an intense pain.

"Lucio…"

This name was engraved in the heart of Susana, this man was the reason she was like this today, a crippled girl who had to stay on a chair for the rest of her life. But what she hated the most was that even if her grieve was deeper, she wouldn't be able to even touch the shadow of that man.

*TOC* *TOC*

While Susana was absent-minded, someone knocked her door, she was surprised, nobody visits her except her father or the maids but neither of them should be in the castle right now.

"Who….who is it?" Asked Susana.

The door slowly opened, Susana has never seen the man in front of her, he was a tall handsome man with black hair and luxury clothe, beside him , were two black clothed men.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, princess Susana, my name is Felipe, I am the third prince of Arcadia, as the rumors says your beauty doesn't know limits, its my pleasure to meet you" Said Felipe while bowing towards Susana.

"Prin…prince it's a little inappropriate to be here at this hour, excuse me , but you will have to leave immediately otherwise, I will be force to call the guards" Said Susana while sitting out.

"Oh….That's strange went I came in , your guards didn't say anything they just let me come in…" Said Felipe while opening his arms.

"What…..what do you want?" Aske Susana.

"I just want to take you on a night walk to Arcadia, I hope that the princess doesn't mind"

"….If I refuse?"

"Oh! But that's the beauty in my offer.... You don't have the choice to refuse." Said Felipe.

One of the man rapidly went behind Susana and put a piece of cloth in her mouth.

"Hmhh...!!" Susana tried to struggle but it was futile.

"Let's go back" Said Felio while the other man put princess Susana on her shoulder.

"…Wait" Said Felipe.

"Lets go thought the backyard, I don't like the smell of blood" Said Felipe while looking behind him.

The scene was grotesque, 5 corpses were lying on the floor, neither of them were complete.

Just like that, Felipe and his men went back to Arcadia.

.....................…

"Hmm?"

"What is Cerberus?" Asked a small girl with black hair while looking at the small dog beside her.

"Ho! Something interesting its about to happen come ,lets go fast to Arcadia" Said Cerberus while moving its small tail.

"Something interesting?"

"Yeah, its seems that we will be a little later than expected, lets go" Said Cerberus.

......................

Alfonso was having a headache at the moment.

"Can you repeat it just one more time" Said Alfonso.

"Like I said, I was on Camel's house went I felt that something was wrong, I asked the plants and the ground nearby, it seems that a huge army is rapidly closing to Wasteland Valley, they will be here in four days!" Said Demeter.

"Well, isn't the time just perfect? We sent two of our main forces to buy iron, we have less than 80 men and wolves at the moment to fight, and we are fighting against an army of 1000, well ISN'T THAT JUST FUCKING PERFECT" Said Alfonso.

"Calm down"

Suddenly a voice came from the entrance of the main hall, it was Artemis.

"Artemis"

"I heard it from little blue, it seems that we are going to be attacked soon?"

"Four days" Said Alfonso.

"... Just barely enough time" Said Artemis.

"..? what do you mean?" Asked Demeter.

"Well, I am not like Athena or Ares who can't plan a campaign to fight army vs army, however, don't forget who I am" Said Artemis with a small smirk.

"You mean…?" Asked Alfonso.

"We have the upper hand because we are locals and all the people on this town have learned how to use an arc and a bow, yep, that will be enough"

"Let the hunt begin!"

Said Artemis while smiling
