"Finally, we arrive to the miners Town, Arcadia" Said Alfonso while admiring the sight.

Alfonso and company finally arrive at Arcadia after a two-week trip, at his arrive, two guardians received them with the respect. Alfonso wore a clock so no one could identify find, well, to be fair, it was quite difficult to hide his origins, after all, the only people who have purple eyes and blonde hair are the royal family, however, now that Alfonso's hair wasn't complete blond and he has an eyepatch, it wasn't so easy to identify him, it wasn't hard though.

"Welcome to Arcadia, I am the new right hand of his majesty Felio" Said a tall man with brown eyes. When Alfonso saw him, he was surprised.

"Excelio?" Asked Alfonso.

"You are..?" Asked Excelio.

Alfonso made a gesture telling him that this wasn't a good place, Excelio understood and lead them towards the manor. The manor wasn't so different for the one in Tulip from the outside, however, on the inside, one could see that the furniture was way more luxurious than the one on Tulip.

"Is expected thought, after all, Arcadia is one of the richest towns in the north" Though Alfonso.

After arriving at the manor, Demeter and Cerberus took the lead while Alfonso and Artemis followed from behind.

"Welcome to my kingdom, I am the lord of Arcadia, my name is Felipe Greco, is a pleasure to meet you"

When they arrived at the hall, sitting in a huge throne was a young man with long black hair and a slim body, he wore a long purple robe.

"And I am the queen of Tulip, as well as the youngest daughter of the Viritia family, my name is Sana Viritia" Said a young woman sitting at the right side of Felipe. Sana wore a red elegant dress that stood out her firm and log legs, the red dress was on par with her red hair and eyes.

"Hello, my name is Demeter, I am here as a representative of Felio as well as the lord of Wasteland Valley" Said Demeter.

"I brought him, he is outside waiting, where is she?" Asked Cerberus.

"She is fine and safe, I already fetch some men to bring her here, however, I want to talk to the one in charge if you don't mind" Said Felio.

"With me?" Asked Demeter.

"No, I am talking about the one who is standing behind you, isn't that right? Your highness Alfonso?" Said Felipe.

Alfonso was a little surprised, he didn't expect for his camouflage to be so powerless.

"Well, I was planning to stay in the dark for this, however…" Though Alfonso.

He took off his cloak and reveled his face.

Sana looked at him with strange yet seductive eyes.

"Ho? So you are the idiotic prince, not bad, you look more savage and mature that I remember" Said Sana while licking her lip.

"The daughter of the Veritia family, Sana Veritia, I have heard of you for a long time, your fame as one of the most beautiful princess on Leitol , presides you, it's my pleasure to meet you" Said Alfonso.

Before Alfonso could bow, he felt a small pinch of his ribs, when he looked out, he saw a dangerous look on Artemis's face.

"He,he, finally someone who can appreciate my beautifulness, not like SOME OTHERS" Said Sana while looking at Felipe.

Felipe made a small sigh, and decided to ignore that commend.

"I want to talk with his majesty alone for some time, if you don't mind" Said Felipe.

"Sure, I want to ask you a few things" Said Alfonso.

Both sides understood what both lords were thinking, Demeter, Artemis and Cerberus left the hall with Sana and Excelio.

In a few seconds both, Alfonso and Felipe stood face to face, Felipe stood up form his throne, and walked towards Alfonso, he stopped when he was one meter away from Alfonso.

"I just have one question for you" Said Felipe.

"What a coincidence, I also have one question for you" Said Alfonso.

Alfonso and Felipe waited for some time before speaking

""What is your objective?"" Asked Both at the same time.

It could be said that both of them already figure what happened, on one side, Felipe already conclude that Alfonso survive the horde, not only thanks to Demeter and the other guy in white, but also himself somehow acquire some kind of power, not only that, based on the fact that Cerberus was also by his side it means that he somehow acquire the friendship of this animals, Felipe knew that the Jubila forest had some mysteries, one of them was its creatures, it says in the legends that the creatures that lives there are extraordinary looking at Cerberus and the way he fough against Sana give him all the clues he needed, but there was one thing the he couldn't understand no matter how hard he thought about it, what was the objective in joining in a war that wasn't his, what was he planning?

On the other side, Alfonso already figure out that Felipe was probably the one who bait Titio in attacking Tulip, this came with the small talk he had with Cerberus and Cat one after they came back from Arcadia and the fact that he is the one sitting in the throne and not Excelio. As for the matter of the Verirtias, he almost had all the pieces, he only needed one more crucial piece, what benefit brings to Felipe selling out Lucio and becoming an enemy of the Pentagates?

Both of them chuckle, after some time, Alfonso was the one who talk.

"I want to open a route of commerce from Wasteland Valley to Tulip, my people suffer from hunger, although we are okay from now, we don't know in the future, that's why, I need them" Said Alfonso.

"Just for that?" Asked Felipe.

"If money don't circulate on a town, then there is no 'Town' only a group of people living together, I don't want that, I will make Wasteland Valley a town, for that, I need Tulip to stay alive, if Arcadia took control of Tulip, it will take ages to settle the commerce and for the town to recuperate, it will take at least a year or two, I don't have that time" Said Alfonso.

Felipe stay quiet for some time, after some time, he opened his mouth.

"The ally house of the Boltors, the Ulters suffer a major blow after the head of the family died a few years ago, from that day on, the house and it resources has been divided between the three princes, but this princes, with their internal wars are destroying it little by little, so, the Boltors intervene and decided that they will choose the next head of The Ulters, the new head will not only control the resource but will also enter the social circle of the Boltors making him an outsider sect, The Boltors have been searching for some time and couldn't find a suitable head, not until I contact them through the Veritias making them a propose that they couldn't refuse"
