The supreme sovereign system

"Just a wolf?" Said Alfonso

Leonardo was a little scared of the gaze of Alfonso, nevertheless, he stood firmly.

"Y-yes! I said it! It its just a beast! A wild animal, what are you so concern about it? We, on the other hand, lose PEOPLE, more than one hundred men, people, how can the life of a simple animal could compare with the life of an animal!?"

Before Alfonso could say anything.

*SLAP*

A slender-white hand slapped the face of Leonardo, despite this, the hand left a huge mark on Leonardo's face.

"I don't know who you think you are, but you in Wasteland Valley, here, we and the wolves are not different, we are allies and most importantly, we are friends, so you better shut the fuck up, or else, I will do it for you, do you understand?" Said Artemis with a cold gaze.

"YOU-"

"Leonardo, that's enough" Said Felio, who has been quiet the whole time.

"…." Leonardo was upset, but he remains in silence.

"Sorry about my commander, he lost a lot of brothers yesterday"

"I will let it pass, however…. There won't be a second time" Said Alfonso while sitting down.

"I understand, lets go back to the topic, As I was saying, you can't deny the fact that you attacked yesterday first, we are under the monarchy of the Lockheart family, as an ex-royal member you should understand this better than anyone else, we follow protocols, we follow rules, if you had stopped and send someone to talk to us, we would have solved this in a proper way, but now, I have 800 something men waiting for an answer for all this, I can't simply go and say, "it was a mistake, sorry" you must understand Mr. Lockheart , we are currently in a tight spot, our swore enemy is preparing for war and I can't afford to lose a single man, much less 150 of them" Said Felio

Alfonso thought for some time.

"…..Like I say before, I now that this time, I was too hasty, however, there is a fundamental mistake in your reasoning… you mention rules and protocols, however, I did remember that there was a protocol that, if a village, town or city was under attack from external forces, then they have two options, they can request an intervention from Dragon city, or they can ask help from a neighbor town, everyone knew that we were going to be attacked by the horde a couple of months ago, so, where was our help? Where were your protocols?" Said Alfonso .

"….You now that Wasteland Valley isn't consider a town under the monarchy of the Lockheart family, we didn't have to help"

"But you could, in this godforsaken land lives families, families that didn't commit any sin other than being born here, those protocols that you are so proud about can be resume in one phrase, "We are a big family, so we support each other", well, I am afraid that we aren't part of that family, I told you from the beginning , this a nation with its own rules, we aren't part of the Lockheart monarchy, for us, you are just a strange army that decided to come here for unknown reasons, like you can't afford to lose a soldier, I can't afford to lose a single person in Wasteland Valley, I can't…. And I won't, did I make myself clear? "

"..... you are being ruthless, do you really think that just because you say it, it means that you can suddenly become an independent nation?...hahahahaha" Said Felio

*THUMP*

Felio suddenly punch the table and looked at Alfonso, it was the first time that Alfonso felt such coldness from Felio's eyes.

"You are just playing the role of a king, you may have power here, but if you go to the capital, you won't last a second there... you are just an ignorant brat who couldn't stay in the big stage and was sent here to be the leader of a dead land"

Alfonso remained in silence, however, his expression remained as calm as ever.

"I HAVE ENOUGH, HOW DARE YOU INSULT MY LORD IN ITS OWN HOME. I DON'T CARE IF YOU ARE THE KING OF TULIP OR EVEN IF YOU ARE THE KING HIMSELF, I WILL KILL YOU!" Shouted Deferio while grabbing his spear and rushing towards Felio.

Felio didn't say anything and just grabbed his sword, he stood up and waited for the attack in a calm way.

"DIE!" ´

Deferio throw himself with his spear.

However, before the spear could meet its target.

*CLANK*

Something blocked the way of the spear, it was a cane.

"Deferio, did I give you the order to attack?" Said Alfonso

"But!-"

"I won't repeat myself Deferio."

"…No.."

"I said that we are here to talk not to fight, are you defying my orders?"

"I wouldn't dare!"

"Then sit down"

Deferio looked at Alfonso while feeling regret for acting so hasty, he took a deep breath and sat down.

Alfonso, however, didn't. He stood there while looking at Felio, who was one head taller than Alfonso, despite this, Alfonso didn't feel intimidate at all.

"If we go to war, we both lose, tell me, what do you propose?" Said Felio while taking a step forward.

"I need resources" Said Alfonso while also taking a step forward.

"I need a strong ally" Said Felio who took another step.

They were just a few inches away from each other.

"He…" Said Alfonso while making a smirk.

"Do we have a deal, loser prince?" Said Felio while extending his hand.

"I really hate you, you know?" Said Alfonso while extending his hand.

"What a coincidence, the feeling is mutual" Said Felio.

After that they both shake hands.

"Loser" Said Alfonso.

"Look who is talking" Said Felio.

"If you lose to a loser that makes worse than loser, how can you look at yourself in the mirror"

"...."

"...."

After some awkward seconds...

"WANT TO GO OUTSIDE!?"

"LETS GO THEN!"

After that, the both of them went outside, leaving the other ones.

"... Can someone explain to me what has just happened?" Said Artemis.
