Chapter 128 Why Do You Want To Be The King?

[Elves' Kingdom.]

A carriage stopped in front of a tavern, and Mariel stepped down, she moved her gaze around the place, seeing a royal carriage at the side with two soldiers, who quickly saluted her.

Mariel nodded, and walked towards the door, pushed it open and walked inside.

She moved her gaze on the empty space, and stopped on the group who sat on a round table.

"Over here, Mariel." Mike yelled, he didn't really have to, they were the only ones in the whole tavern.

Mariel walked towards them, and bowed at the two princes.

"Greetings."

The two nodded, and gestured her to sit down.

Mariel sat on an empty seat beside Mike, and moved her gaze around. The Assassin commander known as Ricky, young man with blonde hair. He smiled at her, noticing her gaze, while Mariel smiled back.

She turned to Jasmine, who was always silent, she was the commander of the ruin masters, one of the best in their kingdom.

Mariel them turned to the Princes, and frowned slightly, she moved closer to Mike and whispered:

"I thought you said everyone was given an Invitation."

"Yeah, we're waiting for Visco." Mike whispered back.

"Ok, the warrior commander? He has eyes on the throne, it'll be a miracle if he even shows up." She said.

"What do we have here! You took the whole Tavern?! How nice! Come on, where are the drinks?!!"

The six people sitting on the round table sighed, and turned their heads around, seeing the muscular man, standing at least 6.8 feet tall walking inside, he was in an armor, with his sword on his waist.

"Commander Visco, we're here to discuss something every important, was it necessary to bring weapons with you?" Andrew asked with a frown, seeing the short knives on Visco's legs.

"Haha! Come on, Prince Andrew! You know the situation of our kingdom, no one is to be trusted, you need to be on guard always... Ha!"

He sat down on her s seat, moving his gaze on the group present, and settled his gaze on Orion:

"Someone needs to set all this right! Right, Prince Orion?" He asked.

Orion stared at him for five seconds, and turned to the rest. Enjoy exclusive chapters from empire

"Commander, my brother and I called you five here because we have important information..." He moved his gaze around making sure he had the commanders' attention, seeing he has it, he continued:

"We are here to discuss the future of our kingdom, and also the next king... As you all know, my father, your king is very ill."

"And what will happen if I tell my father you are planning on taking over the throne?" Orion asked back.

The two stared at one another with killing instinct, before a battle could break out, Mariel interrupted:

"Calm down everyone, I think it's better if we have some drinks to calm down." She stood up, and walked towards the bartender. "Bring you best drink."

The man nodded, and turned around to the drinks. After some seconds he brought out a jug filled with wine... Mariel gestured to him to leave with her head.

He nodded and walked away. While Mariel looked over her shoulder, at the group who were still arguing... She used the opportunity, and pour all the content of what Aurora gave her in the jug.

'She didn't say the dose, so I can only put all.' She thought, and pour another wine on an empty cup, and walked back to table... Not forgetting to take a sip of the wine in her cup.

She placed the jug on the table, and smiled at the group staring at her in confusion.

"What are you guys waiting for? This is good, it'll help cool your heads so we could restart this discussion, and find a way that'll best fit all of us." She said, drinking her wine, which wasn't the wine in the jug.

Mike nodded:

"Commander Mariel has a point." He poured the wine in his cup, and looked at the group.

They looked at one another, and also poured their in the cup, even Visco and the princes took some.

'Hmm... I didn't plan to give the princes, but this is a good thing, right?' Mariel thought, having her seat.

"To the Kingdom!"

They all drank the wine in their cup, and placed the cups on the table.

"Good." Mariel smiled, and added:

"Now, Prince Orion, why do you want the throne? And if you have the throne, what will you do for the kingdom?" She asked.

'Does the substance work instantly, or it takes time? Aurora should have explained this to me, if it works instantly, I'll have to pretend.' She thought.

"As I already said, the king is ill, and I need to take over from him, he doesn't want to leave the throne, so I need your help, that's why we're here... And after I take the throne, I'll take care of the people, I will listen to their needs, and try my best to accomplish it." He said, and pour another cup full, and drank everything.

"Ok, that's a good thinking."

Mariel said, while the other commanders nodded. She then turned to Visco.

"Commander Visco, we all know you're after the throne, so tell us... Why do you want the throne?" She asked.

"I want the throne for the soldiers, and people, I'll provide them with food, more lands, and I'll grow the kingdom into an empire! In a month!!"

Pifff!!!

Both Ricky and Mike spurted the wine in their mouth to the ground... Not only them, all whole table was stunned.
