《The one above all》Chapter 1- A trip to the past
Advertisement
Empire of Marsa, 537 Years ago-
In a secret room, an old wooden round table lies in the center. 13 people sit in chairs surrounding it. Although most of these people are old, the one who leads them all is relatively young.
"He is dangerous!" says one of the old men sitting at the table.
"Watch your mouth Lidian, this is Emperor Vale were talking about." Says another.
"But just imagine! What if he were to turn rouge? This would spell doom for the entire Empire!" Lidian shouts as he gets up from his chair for dramatic effect.
"And that's what were here to discuss Mr.Lidian, so if you would please sit back down, it would save others their precious time." Says the one who seems to lead them.
"Ahh...yes..I'm sorry Princess." Lidian immediately apologizes and sits back down.
The princess stands up from her chair and says, "So...as you all know, my father is a very dangerous man. His powers exceed the normal boundaries and if used against us, can bring down our empire in a matter of days. Although he is my father, and I do love him, mother told me to never trust him. At the time, I didn't know what she meant but after that, she never dared to say it again, but it had caused me extreme worries. So I ask all of you today, our secret council, what our plan of action is against my father, Emperor Vale."
After her speech, Princess Lia sits back down. One could tell from first glance how beautiful she is. With her long black hair and Golden eyes, some men's lust would break out the moment they laid eyes on her.
"I have one question before we begin with the plans, but why would you think that Emperor Vale would turn against his own founded Empire?" Says the only other young person in the room.

"This is because of what my mother told me, before she completely shut herself of the matter. She told me she had found a book hidden underneath a loose marble plate on the floor of the royal bedroom. Although she couldn't open it, she managed to read the title. The title said, 'Emperor Vale vs. My Empire'. What do you think that means General Borus?"
"Th-That isn't enough evidence to assume he would go..go against his own Empire!" Borus shouts.
"No, it is. Those are his plans to destroy his own Empire before he dies! Although we don't know the reasons why, he is strong and I'll be the one to shove an arrow down his throat!" Shouts Princess Lia with a distorted smile and sinister face.

Underneath the Royal palace, lies a basement that not many know of. Although it isn't big, and is only a simple room the size of a Modern house Living room, inside, many dangerous experiments occur. Two figures stand there with shrouded hoods keeping their identities hidden."To think sis had hidden such a place away." mutters one of the shrouded figures.
"I-I have finished the product as requested from the Princess, but if I may ask, what will you be doing with such a dangerous thing?" asks the other, who pulls his hood down revealing an old man with bags under his eyes showing he's had almost no rest.
"That's none of your business old man. Although I should kill you on the spot to ensure this product remains confidential, the princess asks to reward you and set you free for all your hard work. So take the damn bag and scram." Says the other shrouded figure. He throws a fist-sized leather bag on the floor next to the old man and walks away.

- --Later that day
In the Royal Dining Hall, sits 5 people in a large Well-kept wooden table.
"So father, ho-how do you like my food? I know I just started but I promise I'll get better!" Says the princess of the Emperor, Lia.
- ---Emperor Vale POV
Holy shit, this thing tastes like trash! I knew she wasn't a great cook but man, this tops the cake of the worst things I've ever eaten. But I can't tell my lovely daughter that.
"It tastes fine honey, just make sure you practice every day okay?" I say with a raspy voice due to my age.
"Dear, let's go to bed early tonight okay? We've got the Royal tournament to attend to tomorrow." Says my beautiful Wife Amber.
"Yeah dad, sorry, me and Moran have practice early tomorrow Morning, so we better get going." Says the Prince Lusian.
"We do?" Moran says with a face of confusion.
"Yeah, so let's go." Lusian says while pulling Moran out from his seat and walk out of the hall.
Okay, yeah I was feeling sick all day anyways, some sleep wouldn't hurt. Emperor Vale thinks while getting up from his seat.
Little did he know, that would be the final day he would live as a healthy man. Days would come after with the Emperor in bed, unable to move due to his illness. His final day would be with his family surrounding him while at death's door.
- ---After Emperor Vale's death
"Finally! I thought he would never die!" Shouts the princess.
"Shhhh, the guards are still outside, keep your voice down." The Empress Whispers.
After the princess silently nods, the Empress begins to whisper" It is time my daughter, we will dispose of his corpse off to the west in a random forest so that no man shall ever find him.Also Lusian, find and alter a corpse to make it seem like the Emperor for the Royal Funeral. We wouldn't want people to start asking questions now." The Empress whispers lowly to her children with a sinister smile.
