Elf Princesses

Episodes 3. The beginning (Flashback )

That night, Zac awakens from his sleep. No matter what he dreamed, he was worried about everything.

Zachyre, you are the light of the empire, you are the leader, as well as the guard of the Goncalves. Therefore mother will give you a strength, a strength you may never know. This power will only work when the Empire gets into a big trouble. I hope you can keep this trust.

"Your Majesty, that's right!" Edwrad spoke loudly and approached Zac who was still pensive in his room.

"Is there any problem with the community? Tell them that I will send help for the losses received, and tell them not to make a fuss in front of the palace." Zac incised his own temple, his mind so chaotic that it could not think clearly.

"Now the nobility flocked to come for heavy losses on their investments, and they submitted resignations for cooperation with the empire, and now-"

"I'll take care of it, bring all the nobles gathered in my room." Zac stood up and put on his robe, he also put a golden crown on his head.

Looks like I should really step in now.

The Emperor is still the Emperor, I am the Emperor Goncalves, and I cannot let this go.

Meeting Room

"Greetings to the Sun of the Goncalves Empire, Emperor Zachyre.." All the nobles bowed with clumsy feelings, on one hand they wanted to switch roles and fight against the position of Zac, but on the other hand Zac was an 'Emperor', but on the other hand, he was an 'Emperor', the highest level, even higher than a king.

"I won't say nonsense, so tell me what is your problem so you want to cancel the investment with the imperial side?" zachyre said to press.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty needs to know that investment between nobles and empires certainly gives profit to both parties. However, it was still the imperial side that would profit higher due to power. But now? We even suffered heavy losses, even a lot of our land had to be barren due to His Majesty's government" Marquess Ahen explained.

"Compared to it all, the development of other kingdoms was faster than the Goncalves empire. The kings did not even hesitate to buy help for cooperation on nobles in this country," he continued.

"We therefore agreed to cease this cooperation. We know, Your Majesty is the greatest investor for our efforts in this empire. However, more than that, our advantage must be more noticed and can not be played just like that." said another noble to come into discussion.

Zac frowned, however he rarely paid attention to the state of the environment around the Empire, and his recklessness had inflicted much harm on the part of the common people, as well as the nobles.

"I will consider adding capital to the business you are undertaking with the imperial side, but you should also consider it again to stop or not regarding this cooperation." clearly Zac with his cold eyes.

The nobles stared at each other, they nodded and looked back at Zac. "We will wait for His Majesty's response to come."

"All right"

"Your Majesty, are you tired? Lately things have not been possible, I'm sorry for you" said the butler, handing Zac a glass of green tea.

"Where's Edward? Please call him, I need him now!" tell Zac to sip his tea.

...

"Did your Majesty call me?" shortly after, Edward arrives and salutes Zac.

"Edward, I'd like to ask for your help."

"What?" Edward opened his eyes wide. "If for that, of course I can do it." Edward nodded in understanding and asked back. "What do you need, Sire?"

"Information about other governments,"

"W-what?" Edward was again startled, he then swallowed his coarse salivary. "Does Your Majesty need any important information? N-however, if it's about another kingdom.."

"Okay, Sire, I'll be right back and hand over the information." Edward bowed and turned around, he also immediately looked for the information in question at that moment.

"Well...." Zac let out a rough breath. He remembered the words of one of the nobles during the meeting earlier.

"Compared to it all, the development of other kingdoms was faster than the Goncalves empire. The kings did not even hesitate to stall for help for cooperation on the nobles in the country,"

"How long have I not been watching my wealth, so that someone else wants to take my people?" Zac bit his bottom seedlings irritated.

'The 'Imperial Goncalves', an Empire that stood for many years, even hundreds of years, did not in fact lead the opinion of other countries' leaders to buy hands on this Empire. Of course for the same reason every Emperor changes, which is the biggest power supporter in the country only with military power, not magic or other manipulation abilities like those in other kingdoms.

"I have to do more for this." Zac let out a long sigh, he stepped his feet closer to an old cupboard, rather it had been a long time of silence since the previous emperor, more precisely since the reign of Zac's grandfather's father.

"I'm sure mom and dad put it here,"

Krakk..

"Baginda.. Your majesty! Please come out!"

"What's the matter this time?" Zac frowned and wore a necklace stored in his drawer. He ran out and went out the palace gate.

"Why are there so many trains visiting nobles from other countries?" zac asked, opening his eyes wide.

"Your Majesty, for some reason since then many nobles from other countries have come. Moreover, the nobles who came were not ordinary nobles, but the right hand of the kings in his country." obviously Edward was nervous.

"What's? How could they come without an invitation from-"

"For a long time no see, Emperor Goncalves."

*****

Degs.. Degs.. Degs..

"I honor all of you who come to my palace. But, can I ask what is the reason you came and brought so many nobles to fill my palace?" Zac smiled sinisterly with an indecipherable look on his face.

"We want to wage war."

"What?" zac's eyes opened wide, upon hearing a word, 'war'.

"What other joke are you doing with an Emperor? Do you want to play me?" Zac bit his lower lip irritated.

"Hahaha, where is it possible, right? We want to play a fool emperor like you? What are we playing for? Without being played, you'd have been-"

BRACKET!

"Can you speak politely? Look and open your eyes, who are you talking about!" zac firmly, his face reddened with emotion from earlier.

"Pardon us Your Majesty, but our desire to propose a war cannot be disturbed anymore" said one of the nobles.

"Who.. do you want to fight?" Zac frowned.

"Are we the least stressed, or are you the most naive, Your Majesty?" one of the 10 Kings smiled cynically looking at Zac.

"The person we want to fight, of course, is you, Sire Zachyre Alvenys De Golcanves."
