Chapter 6 King Louis

  • Chapter 6
  • With tension, the minister that raised the question found his ankle landing on the ground.
  • "My king, I thought because she is the first Princess, that the position automatically belongs to her, moreover she deserves the position. She had fought many enemies for your sake, which had made the community to be at peace. She helps us from going to one war and another''
  • This is the statement that always angered King Louis, 'he made the community to be at peace, not his daughter' he hated it when he was belittled as a king. Who is Aurora without him?
  • Instead of him berating the man, rather he busted into pretentious laughter, none of the ministers smiled, they all had serious looks on their faces.
  • King Louis stood up from his throne, and walked to the Minister kneeling on the ground, the king lowered his head, raised the minister's chin, and he smiled at him. The man was fidgeting, fear was written all over his face, and his facial expression was read by King Louis, he withheld his hand from his chin and caressed his cheeks.
  • Although his subject loved his first princess, still he loved the way he was able to infiltrate fear into his subject.
  • Her daughter might have their heart because of love, but he believed he has access to their heart as a result of fear he has implanted in them likewise.
  • 'Let her continue having their heart through love, and I will continue to have their heart through fear'.
  • He moved away from the man and glared at the minister in the room. He saw how tense they were, and he wanted to tease them now.
  • "Why are you not laughing?" He said smiling, in the presence of the minister.
  • "Am I a fool smiling this way?" He teased his ministers.
  • "No", They chorused
  • If it is not, then I want every one of you to smile, don't make your king look like a fool, smiling by himself when all his ministers have serious looks. People will say I am whipping you," he said smiling and pointing his finger to each of his ministers.
  • Immediately a forceful smile escaped the mouth of the ministers including the one on the ground, King Louis is a king, his minister name shouldn't enter his offender's book, otherwise, you might not live to see him tomorrow- A man that loves sending his daughter to the lion den.
  • He moved to some ministers, telling them their smile is fake, and immediately the smiles on their faces were wider.
  • He did it to many of the ministers before he strode back to his throne, and bounced on it, he looked at his minister who was smiling like a fool, and a grin brushed his face.
  • "Quiet", he said in a low growl suddenly, and his expression changed to his usual deadly gaze.
  • Immediately quietness passed around the room, and the minister's pretentious laughter disappeared from their mouth, replaced with shivering. There was tension in the room, hoping the king wouldn't decree a punishment.
  • Although a man is standing at the edge of the minister's stance, he's the minister of a warrior of the community, he's the only minister who speaks bluntly, without thinking of the outcome, and he fears no one.
  • He looked at the King and shook his head pitifully. He hated the leadership of King Louis, but had to adapt, thinking his first daughter will correct his wrong leading when she is enthroned, but it seems, he will have to make this happen by himself.
  • He admired Princess Aurora, although she is a lady yet she has killed many giants for the peace of the community. He knows that Aurora might be showing herself to be a brick wall, inwardly she is a woman who has her fear. He wished the king would save her so that the community wouldn't lose a great leader like her.
  • "No one speaks about the crown princess until I announced the crown princess among my daughters, moreover Aurora cannot be the crown princess of this land, she had much blood in her hand, and anyone with too much-stained blood can't rule it community, it will cause distress and hardship for the community," he said, trying to pass an Information to the ministers, he didn't want Aurora as his crown princess.
  • There was a silent murmuring in the throne room, the minister was waiting for one another to speak up, and none spoke, even though they were dissatisfied with the king's choice.
  • The King looked at their faces, he grinned knowing no one is bold enough to challenge his authority. He is the king, and his word is power.
  • He was about to discharge them when the minister of warriors interrupted the silence.
  • "Long live the king, I think for the safety of the community, Princess Aurora has to be rescued, she might not be able to withstand the torture she might receive. There would be war if she mentioned the community name to Alpha Malik. You hate going to war my king, and the one who has been preventing war is in the den of the enemy, all of us know king Malik, a dangerous and powerful king, he showed no mercy, and he will revenge his father's death If Princess Aurora eventually spilled the beans, you are a king full of wisdom my king, I hope you will make the right choice, and prevent the looming war" the minister of Warrior speak with confidence and boldness, hoping the king will save Aurora, he hates war, which is the main reason he mentioned looming war in his advice, with that he is sure the king will dwell In his word.
  • The King looked at him pretentiously, he is the only minister the king feared among his ministers, and he spoke with wisdom and confidence.
  • "I will think about it, minister of a warrior, and I appreciate your concern. I know how much you like war, but I hate war which is why I have trained my daughter to prevent war from ensuing in our community. I will let you know my decision in tomorrow's meeting," The king said and stood up gently, he walked out of the room gracefully.
  • As soon as his presence was not felt anymore, a loud chorus ensued among the ministers, blaming one another as a coward.
  • "This is not the time to be blaming one another, this is the time to save the future of this community" The minister of warriors, minister Lucas said, and walked out of the throne room, not giving the minister's chance to reply.
  • The remaining ministers gazed at him as he walked out.
