The supreme sovereign system

Chapter 325 - Profecy



"You set me up" Said Alfonso with anger.

"Well, I am sorry, but we didn't have any choice" Said Pierre with a laugh.

 "…" Alfonso only looked at Pierre, waiting for an explanation.

Of course, Alfonso knew that something went wrong back in the meeting, it didn't take a genius to get that this was planned.

The four lords had planned this at Alfonso's back.

"We couldn't let Claude let the way to Dragon City if his side won… the war was imminent" Said Pierre.

"Nevertheless, you should have asked me" Said Alfonso.

"Would you had accepted?"

"Of course, not"

"There you have the reason… anyway, consider this returning the favor for protecting you all this time" Said Pierre.

"I have to make clear something, my agreement of protection is we the Queen of winds herself, in other words, I don't owe anything to the Veritia family… now, however, you own me" Said Alfonso.

"You surely can't let one slip, do you?"

"No one can use me and get away freely" Said Alfonso.

"Okay, what do you want?" Asked Pierre.

Alfonso thought for some seconds.

"I want… a route of commerce that unified all the allies of the Veritia family in the north with my town" Said Alfonso.

What Wasteland did Valley need now the most?

Flow of money.

How do you get it?

Selling and buying.

However, Wasteland Valley was so far away that never were any safe routes to get there, plus, the trip was a hard one, few merchants and towns would be willing to do commerce with Wasteland Valley.

However, if the Veritia family helped that would be another story.

"You sure are ambitious, this would cost us a lot of money, plus, it will take years to make it happen, I can't promise you this" Said Pierre.

"One year… and I will give Alisson something to heal her injury faster" Said Alfonso.

Pierre stopped in place.

Alfonso didn't turn, however, he didn't need to turn around to know what kind of dangerous face was Pierre making right now.

"My lord…" Whispered Clara with a frightened face.

However, Alfonso didn't turn.

"Alfonso Lockheart, how do you know about that?" Asked Pierre.

"The Queen is known to have a wild personality, even if she didn't want to attend the meeting, she would have to… giving the current circumstances, however, she didn't appear, of course, something must happen that make her unable to attend"

"In all Leitol, there are very few things that can severely injure beings like my father or the queen, it just happens that my treatment with the Queen had to do with one of those things, that's why, adding two and two, I know that she is injured" Said Alfonso.

"…" Pierre stood in silence for some seconds before the air become lighter.

"Okay, I will convey your propose to mother, I will answer you tomorrow" Said Pierre.

"Go ahead, I will be waiting" Said Alfonso.

Pierre disappeared while Alfonso stood there with Clara and Selene.

"Odysseus, what do you think?" Said Alfonso.

"It's a tricky situation, I suggest you to not go, try to make any excuse, going to the capital as if its right now could get you killed" Said Odysseus.

Alfonso walked in silence while pondering.

"Fascinating subject! You finally came!"

"…"

After a while, Alfonso meets with Mengele and the young white-haired man. The first day, he practically begged them to stay in their room until he came back.

Alfonso was glad that they kept their promise.

"Guys, we are going to the capital in a couple of days… in the meantime, what do you want to do?" Asked Alfonso.

"Experiments!"

"Nothing"

"These two are just two opposite sides" Though Alfonso.

"What about you Clara?"

"I…I want to…" Clara didn't know what to say, after all, she had been in that white room all her life.

"Take your time" Said Alfonso with a smile.

Clara nodded.

"My lord, might I have a minute?" Said the young white-haired man.

"Sure"

Alfonso made a sign and everyone left the room except Alfonso and the white-haired young man.

"What's up?" Asked Alfonso.

"My lord… I know that telling you to not go to the capital would be in vain, your destiny is to go, however, there is something that I do have to tell you" Said the young white-haired man.

Alfonso listened.

"My lord… under any circumstances…." Said the young man seriously.

"You must remember these words"

The eyes of the young man become white and he seemed to talk in a trance.

"Destiny is unavoidable"

"sooner or later, all paths reach the same end"

"The Lockheart blood shall perish in this generation…"

"History shall repeat itself… and the new sovereign shall bring a new epoch of darkness…"

"Unless… the child of destiny survived her own doom"

The young whited-hair man's eyes become normal and he lost his balance.

Alfonso was in shock, he looked at the young whited-hair man for some seconds.

"Remember these words… my lord" Said the young man with exhaustion.

"The… gears of destiny will move to one direction or another… and the… only one who decides in which direction…"

"Is you…" Said the young man.

"I… don't understand" Said Alfonso.

"You will… sooner or later"

The young whited-hair man left the room, leaving a perplex Alfonso there.

.............................................….

After a couple of days.

Alfonso and everyone left the Veritia mansion and went on their way to the capital.

[Around the third day since Alfonso left]

A guess came to the Veritia house.

"My lord" Said a servant to Pierre.

"What is it?"

"There is someone that wants to see you" Said the servant.

"Who?" Asked Pierre.

"It's a clothed woman" Said the servant.

Pierre closed his eyes and, after some seconds, he nodded.

"Let her in"

The servant nodded and went on his way.

After some minutes, a woman in a heavy clothed entered the room.

"I know you… you were at the funeral, although your appearance changed… your soul power doesn't change… tell me… why are you here?" Asked Pierre.

The woman took out her cloth.

"I came for Alfonso, where is he?"
