The next Friday arrived. Philza, Technoblade, Wilbur and Tommy came to the town square where the entire town was waiting in curiosity of what was happening.
"Ladies and gentlemen"
"shhh, shhh quiet, the generals speaking."
"Today will be an extremely historical day in the history of kingship. This was only discovered a week ago. I, the princes and the King himself all agree that we be honest with the people and let all of you know that..." Techno paused and gave Phil a look. A nod for a reply continued the news.
"Ladies and gentlemen... Please place your eyes upon the King, All of you have been wanting to know what happened to the Bird Man?" With that the black robe on Philza's back opened up revealing massive black wings with millions of feathers flowing in the small breeze in the pastel blue sky. The crowd was filled with gasps and whispers as the citizens started gossiping to each other about their king. Philza had his head down the entire time. There was a silence followed after the whispers. Breaking the silence...
"Citizens we understand what you have been faced with, but we have one important choice to ask from you. We will be starting a vote from tomorrow and you people have the choice to drop a note saying if you want his Highness to remain King or if you want him to be dethroned. In two weeks' time we will count the votes and make the official announcement. Thank you for understanding." With that Philza returned his wings back to the robe and they returned back to the palace. The crowd was left flabbergasted.
Returning to the palace. Philza was overwhelmed that he had revealed his deepest secret to his citizens. It went from being something only he's wife and son knew to an entire Town. He felt certain from the reactions he saw that Wilbur would be king by the end of the week. Knowing that he's son was too scared to take on that role being only 19 he prayed and hoped the public wouldn't be too harsh and let him remain king.
As the days passed, Philza could see different citizens dropping folded notes into either one or another box that stood in a voting stand installed in town. The end of the two weeks came on a Monday. The stand was taken down and the unopened boxes were taken to the palace. The entire town gathered in front of the palace. The king and princes stood on a platform facing the public. At noon Technoblade spoke.
"Ladies and gentlemen we have gathered the votes and in a bit we will open the boxes of 'remain as king' and 'dethrone' on the table placed in front of you. Whichever box has the most votes, we will follow the title and either dethrone King Philza or remain to have his Highness as King.
A few minutes later. The people hired for counting the votes arrived. As the boxes were split open the sound of paper ruffling among each other filled the atmosphere. Looking down Philza noticed both the piled looked similar. It only made him more nervous for the result. A few minutes later one of the counters entered the palace and up to the platform among Philza and the brothers. He gave a single note to Technoblade and returned back down to the table outside. The note would have how many notes each box had and the result. After a pause between each other, Techno spoke,
"Citizens, we have the final result of the vote. For the title of remain as king, we have 837 votes. And for the title of dethrone... we" Something made Techno stop. The public and counters may have known but Philza, Wilbur and Tommy had no idea.
"We have 854 votes... in which 764 had a side note of having... Technoblade as the next king...which means his Highness will be dethroned and I will leave my place of general onto King..." The crowd cheered as soon as the news was told. But Philza, Techno, Wilbur and Tommy were shocked. The fact that their father had actually been dethroned and the public wanted to have Technoblade be king instead of Wilbur changed everything. They never really thought this type of situation would happen. They couldn't change it either they had to do as the public pleased.
After wards the public spent the night celebrating while the royal family was in the palace trying to figure out what to do.
"Oh my god what the hell is wrong with those people!" Tommy said breaking the long silence between the family members in the room.
"Father, now what?" Wilbur asked not knowing anything on what to do.
"I don't know, were going to have to go with the public and make Technoblade king, but I'm worried... Techno can you handle it?"
"Maybe...? uhm... I think I can but... I'm more worried if I get unstable."
"Isn't there a way to not make Techno king?" Tommy asked.
"No, we have to do as the public wishes. Technoblade you're going to have to be coroneted soon. I'm so sorry that everything has gone downhill because of me boys. If I wasn't so careless going about the town at night none of this would've happened" Phil said. With the reality of the situation falling on him he collapsed down on the floor.
"Father its ok." They said and got down on the floor and hugged him. As the candle in the room went out the, warmth was retrieved by a pair of soft wings hugging the 4 of them closer.
