《Supreme Empire》Chapter 23
Advertisement
William walked all the way back to the warehouse but he felt that the air had changed into something familiar but after the long walk he was tired so he didn't think much of it.
Until he saw the warehouse where he had built the nuclear reactor up In flames!!
William stood there stunned for a second before he remembered that Alfred must still be sleeping over there.
William quickly rushed towards the flaming warehouse only to realise that the weird feeling he felt in the air was just getting stronger and stronger which made a bad feeling rise in his heart but he suppressed it as he had no time to inspect it cause he was rushing towards the sleeping Alfred.
William got to Alfred picked him up and brought him to a safe distance away from the place where he was feeling the weird change in the air.
"What is going on... wait this feeling .. it's so familiar it's the same feeling I felt after the nuclear explosion!!!"
"Wait it can't be ... right Emma"
[...]
"A MELTDOWN HAPPENED! BUT HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE!"
[well William from my analysis it seems that you had left the different manas with properties still in the machine and since you weren't there to control it lost control and went on a rampage creating a 'Meltdown' to happen]
William fell to the ground with a defeated expression on his face.
"No! My hard work is gone now!"
[And this weird feeling you feel is I believe according to you 'Radiation']
"Thanks, a lot Emma definitely couldn't have figured that out in a million years"
[Happy to help :)]
'Fuck'
William went towards Alfred and woke him up.
"Huh, young master what happened?"
"Nothing happened let's go back home"
Alfred looked around and quickly spotted the burning warehouse.
"What happened to the warehouse young master! Are you alright!?"

"Yes Alfred now let's go back home," William said and started walking away.
"Young master why don't we use the carriage?"
'Sure I would use it but unfortunately, the horse died of radiation'
"The horse is dead so let's walk"
~~
William finally arrived at his home and didn't even bother letting anyone know and went to his room and shut it.
Alfred who had tried to ask William what had happened but didn't receive any answers could only report to Albert about what he had seen when they returned.
~~
A few days later William could be seen walking through the hallways of the mansion towards the living room dressed up in his special clothes.
"Damn what the hell do they even want making me get dressed like this" William grumbled as he walked.
[William you know you cant keep getting annoyed at everything just because of what happened back at the warehouse]
"Well I'm really trying not to get annoyed but recently because of that when someone annoys me I just feel like bashing their fucking heads in"
From the guard's perspective, William just looked like he was grumbling to himself but all they could do was just shrug their shoulders at their own helplessness in this situation because ever since William had returned he was quite easily annoyed by anyone.
So the guards have been maintaining a certain distance from William to not get caught by William just cause he is annoyed.
William arrived in front of the hall's doors and opened them and what greeted him was the sight that just made him want to punch this person.
In front of him were his parents on one of the sofas and on the other sofa opposite of his parents was the fucking emperor! alongside a woman that basically looked like she had painted her face with makeup and a boy who looked a bit older than William and a girl that shared many similarities with her mom, I'm guessing.

"What's going on William asked"
In exchange to that question, William got a myriad of looks from his mom and dad and the people on the emperor's side.
"William why don't come and sit here," his dad asked him with a strained smile
William walked over cautiously looking at the people on the emperor's side and sat between his parents.
The woman with makeup turned towards the emperor and said shit that made William nearly puke and cringe.
"Hubby look at this mongrel he has no manners at all he hasn't even bowed to us I don't think it would be a good idea to marry our beautiful daughter to this waste"
'I swear I don't know if this is possible in reality but I clearly saw veins pop up on my dad's forehead'
'And why the hell are her kids looking at me like they are superior or some shit'
"Huh is this the way a mere concubine should be talking to my son!" Grace said with an icy look on her face
'Oh so she is his concubine, this is getting fun I cant wait to see what the emperor will do'
"What who the hell are you bitch!" the woman with makeup shouted
"You should calm down Steph she is my sister" the emperor finally Interjected
"Well, Charles it's her fault she acts like a bitch right Charles," The woman said with a seductive attitude and the emperor just looked at her helplessly and didn't say anything.
'I swear if this woman calls my mum a bitch again she will have a head missing if her body"
"First of all let me apologise for not greeting you your majesty but do you mind telling me what's going on here"
My dad looked at me and said shit that blew my head
"They are here because of your engagement with concubine Stephanie Elshire the 7th princess of elshire empires daughters and your marriage"
'Ah so this is arranged'
"Well I have no interest in this engagement or marriage and I highly recommend you cancel it"
After William said that the emperors and Stephenie and her kid's faces looked as if a bomb had dropped on them.
"I'm sorry what," Stephanie asked with a shocked expression
William stood up and looked at everyone
"I said we cancel this engagement right now," William said then looked at his mom and dad hoping for support
And they didn't disappoint.
"Yes since the concubine is unsatisfied and so is William we shall cancel this engagement "
Albert said while grace just nodded looking at the emperor with cold eyes.
And it seems like the emperor got the hint mom gave him
"Okay well since none of you are satisfied we shall end this engagement n..."
"STOP!"
Stephanie son stood up with his chest heaving up and down in anger and pointed at William.
"You two are just a half-blood of royalty you are just a tiny stain to the empire's image you deserve to Die"
'What the hell is this guy crazy or something and since when was such a thing to be discriminated about'
Dad finally decided to do something about this situation
"Alright that's enough we have both come to an agreement that the engagement is called off I hope the emperor can take care of his family better so they don't act like such wild dogs in front of others"
Dad finished with à clap and presented them towards the exit.
The emperor looked at Albert with a red face, he grabbed his concubine's arms and took her outside along with her kids.
"Dad what the hell was up with the emperor and that woman??"
