chuckled…, well I would like to here the rest of the explanation milady…., Tatsuki replied….., Okay well as I was saying…Dragon stone's land was rich in Magicubes and 45% Gold…..which also meant that

anything you wanna tell me before I set foot on the Palace of your most hated person?....., Tatsuki added as he observed the area the Asterix was in…they had reached an area that buzzed with city life…there were men and women here and there with hawkers shoving their products at the window of each Asterix that passed by the streets not excluding theirs….there were a lot of tall buildings Tatsuki noticed as they vacated the outskirts of the area…., We are already in Dragon stone…., Juliana spoke up…., Ohhhh some busy city…., He replied still looking out the window…., It hadn't taking time before they reached the large Palace gates….two guards that were present walked towards their Asterix…..their chauffeur handed them a letter one of the guard took it from him and looked through it….they were finally let through….hovering into the large estate Tatsuki observed the different maids attending to a large garden on the east side and some guards patrolling an area near the large fountain in front of the huge palace…, Tatsuki?...., Juliana called out to him…, Yeah?...., Tatsuki replied her looking at her…., You will be meeting the kings and ambassador's of every Kingdom in the

replied chuckling…, Yeah I trust you…, She exclaimed as the door of the Asterix slid open vertically…there were Some maids awaiting her at the entrance of the huge palace….including a butler….,

confused…., Tatsuki added attracting everyone's attention….., Hmmm?....., Reinhardt reacted…., Well….when they said you did a lot of really hard missions…..i expected someone who looked experienced….like with a lot of scars or maybe a beard?....not some really hot guy with a red pony tailed makeover not excluding the really toned skin…., Tatsuki replied shocking everyone including Juliana who tried casting glances at him I a bid not to make enemies…., You see!!.....that's what's wrong with the people in Adroph….they get cocky just because they have a cocky princess with a

to sooth one's emotions….., And….exhale….wow my teachings paid off…., Reinhardt exclaimed chuckling as Elizabeth calmed…., I really don't think that counts from what I see back at the academy…., Juliana thought grinning…, Wow…..really thought she was about to explode there for a sec…., Tatsuki thought…., Don't know what happened you see years back…..Elizabeth, Winslow and Juliana were always the closest of friends…., Reinhardt spoke up chucking as he patted he's little sister on the head which slightly embarrassed her…., Well I will meet you guys inside…., Elizabeth exclaimed as she walked in grudgingly escorted by Eric and the group of maids that followed…., And yeah…answering your question Tatsuki Hinokami….i am just that superior in my escapades…., Reinhardt replied him smiling with a bright face…., Hmmmm the guy surely is cocky…., Tatsuki thought as he sighed…., Nice meeting ya…..Prince Righthard-it's Reinhardt hahaha…..your summoning sure is funny….., Reinhardt chuckled as he looked at Tatsuki walk into the palace…., Am soooo very sorry prince Reinhardt….he's from a world where laws do not abide by him…., Juliana exclaimed…., A world where laws don't abide by him?....hahahahahaha...that has to be the most funniest thing you have said in years…., Reinhardt laughed it off as he escorted her into the palace….., Winslow!!.....what are you doing here?...., Tatsuki exclaimed as he caught sight of Winslow in the hall way leading to the conference room where the council are meant to be…., Tatsuki….you made it on time…fast everyone's waiting for both you and Juliana…..Eric and Elizabeth have gone in….., Winslow replied him…., Yeah that's where I was headed….but what are you doing here?...., Tatsuki added asking…., Winslow you aren't the type to show up at meetings as stressing as this one….., Juliana exclaimed from where she was as she approached the both of them escorted by Reinhardt too…., Am just glad to see you here too….your highness…., Winslow bowed slightly….., I was waiting for you two to show up and yeah this was an exception after all I was a witness to it all….i arrived in the same Asterix with the principal….., Winslow explained…., forget all that its nice to see again Winslow…, Reinhardt exclaimed as he gave Winslow a hand shake…., I could say so too Reinhardt…., Winslow replied as he received the welcome…., Well its unfortunate your ball had to be moved to tomorrow due to the event that occurred at the academy…., Winslow added as everyone advanced towards the large door at the end of the hall way….they were currently on the east side of the palace where international matters were held…every palace in the kingdoms had an area constructed for the sole purpose of holding meetings just like this one and luckily they were in one of them…., yes I heard as I arrived here in Dragonstone and I know how serious such a situation can be…., Reinhardt replied him….as they approached the door several voices could be heard from within the room….., *sigh*….here we go…., Tatsuki thought as the guards at the entrance swung open the doors…..suddenly there was silence as all eyes looked at the individuals walking in...but the eyes weren't looking at them…..they were all focused on the guy in The Imperial academy's uniform….., I BELIEVE WITH THEIR ENTRANCE THE MEETING CAN NOW COMMENCE!!....., A voice exclaimed from the group of strangers Tatsuki looked back at.
