The supreme sovereign system

Its been five months since the funeral.

Although some things happen, nothing major to be mention it. Alfonso keep with his promise and stayed in Wasteland Valley to arranged things, and it turned out great.

"Alfonso, the ministers buildings are almost done, the five of them will be done as you requested" Said one of the golden twins.

"Awesome, how are our paths of commerce doing?" Said Alfonso.

"The road towards Tulip town will take at least one more month, the people on Tulip are also helping, and however, between the buildings and the road, we took priority on the buildings"

"That\'s good, all in all, given the current number of people that we have, is pretty good" Said Alfonso.

The golden twins nodded and then moved.

"Uncle~" Little pit appeared behind the golden twin.

"Little Pit, how are things going on your side?" Asked Alfonso.

"Hm!"

Little Pit took a huge stack of papers and put a pair of glasses.

"The ins and outs are finally turning green, until last month we were barely managed to go even, the margin is not that much, but is something" Said Little Pit.

"Since when did you start using glasses?" Though Alfonso.

"How much?" Asked Alfonso.

"600 gold coins" Said Little Pit.

"… Give that money to the infrastructure minister, we will use it to contract more workers" Said Alfonso.

"Ok, however, I must remind you that sister Demeter told me that it will some time before we can harvest something, the internal commerce would be low this month" Said Little Pit.

"Don\'t worry, I have some ideas in mind, however, tell Demeter that I want a report with the exact number of each vegetable we are going to have this month" Said Alfonso.

"Got it" Said Little Pit.

The man behind Little Pit came in front.

"My lord"

"Taylor, how are the negotiations with the other towns going?" Said Alfonso.

"The negotiations are so-so, for instance Arcadia is still not willing to make a long term contract with us, however, Paringrer is willing to negotiate is we provide 70 percent of the goods on the first send" Said Taylor.

"Too much, tell them that we are willing to give 60 percent of the goods at most, however, they have to give us a longer contract, at least a five year one" Said Alfonso.

"Our current goods won\'t be able to satisfy the demand if we make that kind of contract" Said Taylor.

"We are going to have more goods in a months, trust me, make the deal" Said Alfonso.

"Good it, however, I need someone… a little more… convincing the lord in Paringer" Said Taylor.

"What do you have in mind?"

"Well, I heard the lord has this liking for long black haired woman, so I was thinking if-"

"No"

A voice interrupted Taylor speech.

"Cat one, how about we discuss-"

"Be careful of what are you going to said, I am currently aiming my dagger at your special place" Said Io.

Of course, in the past months, Io has perfection her stealth abilities, now, even Alfonso had some troubles finding her.

Taylor sweat cold.

"Io, be good" Said Alfonso while looking at the reports.

"…Okay" Said Io.

Taylor stood there for some time before Io reveled herself, she was looking at him with a cold gaze.

"I- I will managed myself somehow" Said Taylor.

"Good work~" Said Alfonso.

Taylor retired and another one came in.

"Yo, Alfonso"

"Cerberus" Said Alfonso.

Cerberus jumped out and sat in Alfonso\'s lap.

"Alfonso, the wolves and the Romans have become quite united, some even mount them like it was something normal" Said Cerberus.

"That\'s something good… thinking about it, how come Cease isn\'t here yet?" Asked Alfonso.

"That guy? He is outside, he has been there since three hours ago" Said Cerberus.

"Three hours!?" Alfonso was surprised.

"Cease, are you there?" Shouted Alfonso.

"MY LORD!"

Cease make a salute and enter the room.

"Cease, how come you didn\'t came in?" Asked Alfonso.

"I WAS MAKING SURE THAT THE PEOPLE THAT CAME IN WERE NOT SUSPICIUS, THE SAFETY OF MY LORD IS TOP PRIORITY!" Said Cease.

"I see…" Said Alfonso.

"Protecting his highness is my job" Said Io.

"You? Don think so, what a little girl like you do?" Said Cease.

"Wanna go again you big beard?" Said Io.

"Be my guess, little girl" Said Cease.

"If both of you have finish playing around, I want my report thank you" Said Alfonso.

""I AM SORRY, MY LORD""

About two months ago, Cease and Io meet each other like this, they duel a couple of times and become… friends?

Something like that… more or least…

"My lord, we have finished the training as you commanded and our numbers have double since last time" Said Cease.

"Good, compared to the Spartans, do you think you can performed just as well?" Asked Alfonso.

"Those guys? Come on your majesty, we are talking about we, the romans, the best army in all Leitol, how could we lose against those guys" Said Cease.

"Is good to have confidence, however, don\'t be arrogant" Said Alfonso.

"I am sorry, my lord" Said Cease.

"Don\'t worry, I just hope that I don\'t have to use neither the romans nor the Spartans" Said Alfonso.

"… I understand the feeling" Said Cease.

"Be on your way then, remember, don\'t pick a fight with the Spartans…. AGAIN" Said Alfonso.

"I… I will be on my way then" Said Cease.

He left and Io was the only one in the room besides Alfonso.

"Your highness, is about time for lunch" Said Io.

"Ugh, Already?" Said Alfonso.

Alfonso looked at the door with anxiousness, since a couple of months ago, his lunch was prepared by Yuri and was brought it…. By someone.

*Knock* *Knock*

The door was knocked and Alfonso, with a dry voice, said

"Come- come on in"

Entering the room was a maid with a plate on her hand, she looked beautiful with her long blonde hair tied up.

"H-hey, Anastasia" Said Alfonso.

"Don\'t push it, Alfonso" Said Anastasia with annoyance.

She gracefully walked towards Alfonso and put the beautiful dish in front of him.

However, things didn\'t end there.

She walked behind Alfonso and put him a handkerchief on his neck.

Then, she cut the meat in small pieces and served Alfonso a cup of water.

All of this with perfection, nothing to envy the maids in the Lockheart Castle.

The only thing that betrayed this perfection, was the annoyed face of Anastasia, she looked at Alfonso like his worst enemy.

"How come this is my fault?" Though Alfonso.

"Are you enjoying the view?" Asked Anastasia in anger.

"You can\'t blame for this, it was your master that put you in this outfit, it wasn\'t me" Said Alfonso.

"It all master fault! How come I, Anastasia Boltor, become a maid!" Shouted Anastasia with all her might.

"Its because you had to be responsible, and how is more responsible than the one who do all the things in a castle" Said a voice from the door,

Alfonso looked up and saw Demeter.

"Master!" Said Anastasia.

"I talked to Yuri, she says that the bathroom of his majesty isn\'t ready, why it isn\'t ready?" Asked Demeter.

"I REFUSE!" Shouted Anastasia.

"Ho?~ you refuse? Interesting~" Said Demeter.

"Oh, its been a while since I saw that face" Though Alfonso.

Anastasia looked at Demeter\'s face and shiver a little before nodding.

"I- I will be on my way" Said Anastasia.

"That\'s a shame, I thought we had a problem, a shame, it have a punishment that I am dying to probe" Said Demeter.

"I- I WILL BE ON MY WAY!" Shouted Anastasia, running away from the place.

"Demeter, don\'t traumatized the kid" Said Alfonso.

"I won\'t, she is stronger now" Said Demeter.

She walked towards Alfonso, who was eating, and hug him from behind.

"Are you enjoying the view of a young woman dressed as a maid~?" Asked Demeter.

"*Cough* *Cough*"

Alfonso almost choked.

"Don\'t joke around like that" Said Alfonso.

"You are answering the question"

"I don\'t, now, can I please eat?" Said Alfonso.

Demeter smiled and hugged him harder.

"This is my place, I want to stay here for a little longer" Said Demeter.

Alfonso sighed and continue eating.

To Alfonso, this was a normal day, he enjoyed this peace.

All in all, Wasteland Valley was making a huge change, everything was going smoothly.

However, poor Alfonso would be only be able to enjoy this normal life a couple of days more before trouble come knocking his door.

After all, the story would turn bore without troubles right?
