3RD POV





    Leigong: - Tch, what's taking them so long?! Where's the king?! We've been waiting here for hours!!

The yellow-haired captain scowled in frustration.

    Caius: - Relax, Lei. We'll know soon enough.

The captain of the Singing Birds spoke from beside him, with a laid-back tone.

    Leigong: - You've been saying that for hours, and we're still here!!

    Sirius: - NOW, NOW, THERE'S NO REASON FOR AGGRESSIONS!! WE MUST PATIENTLY ENDURE THIS WAIT AS MAGIC WARRIORS SHOULD!!

    Aalto: - Flameborn, this shouting of yours is unbecoming of a magic warrior Captain!!

    Sirius: - OH MY!! I SINCERELY APOLOGIZE!!

He exclaimed in the same tone. Aalto scowled even more, while Caius and Aurelius were laughing at the scene.

    Aella: - Leigong, although I understand your growing frustration, you must remember that this is a code "undercut". Which means-....

    Leigong: - There's an immediate emergency that could jeopardize the security of our Kingdom. Yes, I know!

He replied with a scoff.

    Selin: - Or the life of the king.

Selin added, plunging the meeting room into silence.

    Selin: - For now, the only immediate threat comes from the Wind Kingdom. The treaty between nations states that any treasure found belongs to the land where it was discovered, which should prevent disputes. But treaties won't prevent these windy bastards from declaring war if they choose to. After all, they were heavily involved in all of this.

Aalto nodded.

    Aalto: - Indeed. I assume we were called to discuss war plans. If that's the case, the people should be our top priority!!

    Aurelius: - The people are always our top priority.

Aurelius let out a bored whine.

    Aurelius: - Ugh, I don't wanna go to war. I haven't even gotten married to my little moon yet!!

Selin facepalmed.

    Leigong: - Can't you act like a fucking adult for once?!

Aurelius's eyes glistened with theatrical tears.

    Aurelius: - But I haven't gotten engaged yet!! If I don't marry Selin before war, I'll literally die!!

Selin's eyes widened, then gleamed dangerously.

    Selin: - Sound the war horns.

Silas let out a small chuckle from across the table, his face covered behind his fan he stared at himself in the mirror.

    Silas: - Wipe those tears, dear Aurelius. Though I don't blame you. My eyes would be crying too after staring at an unsightly woman such as her.

Selin gave him an unimpressed look.

    Selin: - Careful, Silas. I don't want to say out loud how your reflection is the only thing that tolerates you.

    Caius: -PFFF, HAHAHA!!

    Silas: - Wounded, by words sharper than my cheekbones. Tell me, Selin, how do you sharpen that tongue of yours? On the bones of failed suitors, perhaps?
