They were stopped by two warriors guiding the door with silver badges on their breast plate.

"Pardon us, Prince Arthur but your warriors are forbidden to enter the Kingdom as per the rule of King Bartholomeo!"

"And who are you," asked Prince Arthur.

"I am Gusion, one of the enchanted warriors of the King!" answered the warrior.

Prince Arthur turned to the left side of the door where the other warrior guard was standing. "And you?"

"I am Belerick, also one of the enchanted warriors of the King!"

Prince Arthur crossed his arms over his chest. "They are my visitors and I personally invited them over to come and eat dinner with my father!"

Apologize your Majesty, I need to go to the King right now and ask his permission before letting them in!"

"Well then, just stay here and let me talk to my dad. Who knows if you exaggerate the story to make me look evil in the eyes of my father?"

"Your Majesty, I am in no place to do such a thing. I worked really hard just to be promoted to this position!"

Prince Arthur opened the door and went inside the Kingdom. He saw his father seated on his throne and he was looking at him. There were also six warriors in the ill center of the aisle and four warrioress who surrounded the King. He walked through the red carpet on the floor that extends to the throne where King Bartholomeo was seating. He kneeled down before speaking. "Father, may I ask you a favor?" he asked.

"Stood up my only son, I am listening!"

Prince Arthur stood up before reporting the good news to his father. "I would like to inform you that the zodiac warriors I searched for nearly half a year have become stronger. They were able to pass the intense training and so, I decided to invite them over for a banquet!"

"I see... you want them to hear my praise, is that right my son?"

"Y-yes your father... I believe that I can bring out the best in them once they heard something good from their King!"

"How many are them?"

"I have 12 zodiac warriors to be exact and they are waiting outside the door, my father. Our warriors did not let them in and told us that we need your permission!"

"That's my order and I am glad that they followed it even though you're my son. I would like to see your zodiac warriors so bring them inside and I will throw a grand banquet for them!"

The two of the warrioress walked away and told the servants of the King in the kitchen to prepare for the best meal because they have 12 visitors coming in. Meanwhile the 12 zodiac warriors arrived and marveled at the beauty of their Kingdom with most furniture made of either gold or bronze. They see King Bartholomeo worn a camel's hair coat, black silk cloak, a hat trimmed with peacock feathers, along with a surcoat.

His gold imperial crown features a green tourmaline as the center stone. It has 9 hoops that rise from the ring to form a single-rounded dome with arches rising at the center. He gently touched his white beard upon seeing them walking on the red carpet. Shortly after, they kneel down upon arriving in front of the King. King Bartholomeo stood up and noticed the bruises and contusions on their faces and bodies. He turned his gaze at Prince Arthur who was standing next to them. "I felt some earthquakes behind the kingdom. Did you just revive some creatures so your warriors can practice Arthur?"

Sweating, Prince Arthur started to talk nervously. "Yes father, sorry... I just want to try my magic to train them really hard!"

"No, I have nothing against that. In fact, I am amazed you can bring creatures back to life, I expect that you will be of great help to our kingdom in the near future. What are those creatures?"

"I revived the four head dragons, Titanoboa, golgozur dinosaurs, and 100 dead warriors. Although I am not sure if they are as strong as they used to be," responds Arthur.

"Given the bruises and contusions your 12 zodiac warriors received, they must be as strong as they were alive. I looked forward to seeing your magic power on the 40th anniversary of our Kingdom!"

"Yes father, this tizona sword I carry is pretty damn heavy. I wonder if I can really use it in a fight," complained the Prince.

"You must endure it until you get used to it. King Solomon desperately wanted to use it, but we know for a fact that none of them deserved to own it. Time has retaliated for the evildoings they did against our kingdom, because Abaddon completely conquered them."

Two warrioresses came and bent down before King Bartholomeo. "Your Majesty, the foods are already prepared!" said one of them.

King Bartholomeo looked at the two servant warriors. "Go ahead and prepare red wines as well!"

"Yes, your Majesty," the servant warrioress said at the same time and they walked to the kitchen again.

"Come and follow me, great zodiac warriors. Your bravery, dedication, and unparalleled swordsmanship deserve honor and praise. I am now inviting you to a lavish banquet in my Kingdom which only a handful of warriors experienced."

"Thank you for the privilege, your majesty. We are beyond happy to acknowledge your praise and invitation," said Leomord who grinned in excitement.

The King walked towards the royal banquet area and they immediately followed him and saw an elongated wooden table covered with linen made from flax stems and filled with many fruits they have never tasted. There are also golden plates, fancy wine glasses, and other utensils sitting on the table. There are fourteen arthingale chairs and three thrones in center, exclusive only to the royal family of King Bartholomeo.

"Please sit down everywhere except for the three thrones in the center," said Prince Arthur with a firm voice. "Those seats only belong to the royal family," he added.

Zodiac warriors seated to the arthingale chair they feel relaxed and comfortable with so did the King and Prince Arthur. Not too long, they smelled a scent of food. Then lower-ranking servants wearing cheap robes of russet arrived with foods, pitchers, and bottles of red wines. They put meat pies, venison pies, roast rolls, lamb shanks, chicken drumsticks, quiche, and pitcher on the table. They also filled the fancy glasses with red wine before leaving the area.

Queen Veronica entered the area wearing a long gown made of silk and rich in velvet covered by luxurious tunic and contained embroidered lace and gems. The gold crown on top of her head has pearls, garnets and amethysts surrounding it. She sat beside the King and stared at him to ask. "Who are these warriors and why are they joining us in our dinner?"

King Bartholomeo sipped a wine before he explained. "Honey, they are the zodiac warriors of our beloved son Arthur. He assigned them to guard the entire kingdom to ensure our safety while we celebrate the 40th anniversary of our Kingdom!"

"I don't see any problems with that," Queen Veronica noticed the fear in the face of the zodiac warriors. "Please don't be afraid of me, I don't mean to harm any of you unless of course one of you plans to betray us!"

Prince Arthur quickly responded in a respectful way. "Mother, I have been with them since I inherited the tizona sword of my father. I trust them with all my heart and I don't see any reason why they would do such a thing, mother!" he sighed. "Before we eat, I would like all my zodiac warriors to formally introduce themselves!"

Queen Veronica was mundane to know the zodiac warriors and eat quietly. But what caught her attention was Alexander, because he turned out to be the son of her old flame, Zeus, she refrain from eating and stared at him in wonder.

"My father died at the hands of evil werewolves when we were still friends with magicians. Since then, I have thought of nothing else except avenging his horrible dead." Alexander clenched his fist. "That's the reason why I want to be a warrior. Celestial Spirit King suddenly appeared and gave me the Aries celestial sword and he told me that I am destined to be one of the zodiac warriors!"

"I see... you have a strong will to fight," said the King. "Where do you live now Alexander?"

"I don't have permanent residence and I just slept everywhere!" he replied.

Queen Veronica felt guilty because she knew that she had betrayed her former lover when she chose the lavish lifestyle that King Bartholomeo offered her. "Why don't you just stay here Alexander? We have plenty of unoccupied rooms for you!" she blurted out.

Everyone was startled and turned to Queen Veronica when she suddenly spoke. However, Alexander refused to accept the offer of the Queen. "Please forgive me but I'm happy that I don't have a permanent home. I see many mistakes around me and I'm glad to be a way to help others in need. I guess, losing my father was a blessing in disguise. I also had a chance to meet different humans along the way until I saw Prince Arthur while I was practicing in the frozen cave stream. He was watching over me and came out to offer me to become a part of his zodiac warriors!"

Queen Veronica took a sip of her wine and closed her eyes for a moment. Then accepted Alexander's firmed decision. "Well then, I fully understood your decision but you can come here to our kingdom at any time you want. And as the Queen of this kingdom, I valued your great sacrifices and risking your life for the sake of my family. I am going to prepare your foods as you go home as a token of appreciation for your unmatched courage!"

Alexander smiled facing Queen Veronica. "Thank you very much, Queen Veronica, we will do everything we can to make our kingdom safe not only on our 40th anniversary but for as long as we live!"

King Bartholomeo saw the dedication in Alexander's eyes and grinned. When they finished eating, the servants gave their breads, vegetables, and fruits as they headed back to their homes.

    The night already got deeper when Alexander returned to the guild hall. Isabella was standing at her platform and answering some warriors mobbing her. She noticed Alexander coming in so she approached the wounded warrior who looks extremely tired. "What happened to you Alexander?" Isabella touched Alexander's face. "You are badly injured... let me get you some herbal medicine to-"Alexander put down the baskets he was carrying, removed her hand from his face and yelled in anger. "These are just minor injuries, I am training hard so what you see is just normal, fucking idiot!"An old warrior with a long mustache dragged his feet towards Alexander. "What's wrong with you, Jerk? Do you think you are above all of us? Just because you're one of the zodiac warriors does not mean you treat warrioress with rudeness, especially someone who is highly respected as Isabella!"Alexander has a mocking look on his face upon seeing the meddler warrior. "Get out of my sight, low-rank warrior, just min

    Isabella couldn't handle her obsession with Alexander, so she undressed and walked in the middle of the river to seduce the zodiac warrior."Bathing is more fun if you are not alone," said Isabella. "I want to join you in taking a bath. I can scrub your back, and you can do whatever you want with me, especially since it's just the two of us in this warm river!"Alexander opened his eyes and was surprised to see Isabella naked in front of him. He saw her pinkish bo*bies and it made him horny. "W-what are you doing h-here? Did you just follow me, Isabella? Don't you see I'm taking a shower right now?" he asked."Of course I do!" Isabella wrapped her arms around his neck and suddenly cried. "I was so offended by what you said earlier and I am so jealous of Charlotte. Is there no hope for us to be together? I've wanted you for a long time and I don't want any other man but you. I didn't agree to be seduced by other men! Do you know that I promised myself that on my birthday, you could tak

    Prince Arthur started dancing with Isabella, Alexander stormed off as he couldn't imagine that he had sex with another woman other than Charlotte whom he has a crush on. He went to the Black River alone and sat down on a tree that fell on the ground and stared dumbfounded. Suddenly the fog thickened in the area, making him disappear. He was pulled out from his thought when he felt someone approaching him. He stood up and he drew his sword. He rolled his eyes and sharpened his ears to listen to the sound of footsteps. "Show yourself, dumb-ass. You're barking on a wrong tree!"Someone jumped behind him and attacked him with a sword which he immediately blocked. He noticed the gold sword and recognized who attacked him."Prince Arthur, is that you?" asked Alexander."Your skill with the sword is really impressive, Alexander!" said Prince Arthur."Thank you very much for your praise Prince Arthur. What you said to me is imprinted in my mind!"Prince Arthur waved his tizona sword and the f

    Charlotte slowly opened her eyes and awoke in the middle of the night on an island that was still a part of Alabama. She looks around and becomes agitated when she cannot find Alexander or the girl they rescued from the bandits. Venus's projection appeared in front of her once more, and she looked so disappointed."Star gazer Venus, I'm glad to see you again!" said Charlotte. "What happened? Why are you sad?""I asked for the stars to separate you from Alexander because he is not your fated man, Charlotte!" answered the Star gazer.Charlotte frowned. "What do you mean? Are you saying that Alexander is not mean for me?""Indeed, I want you to know that he kissed you on the lips while you were asleep and no meteor fell from the skies which means he is the the one we are searching for. I know it's hard to accept especially when you already have a feelings for the handsome zodiac warrior!""But how is our kingdom? How is my family? Are they still imprisoned? Can you tell me what is happen

    The warrior blushed upon seeing Charlotte's stunning face. "Good day to you beautiful young lady, what do you want? Is there anything I can help you with?" asked the warrior."Pardon me, can I stay in your house right now? D-dont worry, I will leave this place... I just don't like spending my night in the middle of forest!" begged Charlotte.The warrior crossed his arms on his chest and gazed at Charlotte's eyes. "May I know what is your name and where are you from?"Charlotte swallowed her nervousness before speaking with a calm voice. "My name is Charlotte, my parents have been gone for so long and I spend my entire life wandering around Alabama... these fast few days have been so rough for me and many warriors attempt to take advantage of my innocence!""Is that so? Then you knocked on the right door. I'm Ammon, please come in and I'll make you some hot tea!"Charlotte smiled. "Thank you so much, Ammon!" She went inside Ammon's house and saw that there were many fruits and bread on

    Charlotte went to Ammon's room to sleep. While Ammon slept in the living room of his house. A sound of the footsteps awakened Ammon. He got up, took his celestial sword and dragged his feet to where he heard the sound. Outside, he saw two wounded bandit treasure hunters coming towards his house."What are bandit treasure hunters doing here?" he asked."Step aside, we have no business with you!" warned one of them."Is that so? Then I guess you want a trouble!" answered Ammon."We are not interested with you, warrior. You wanted your death!""Geez, as if you can lay your fingers me," Ammon sighed. "This is your last warning, leave this or I will dragged you out of here!" warned Ammon. "I am exhausted from my training but I can still hear your heavy footsteps on the ground." Ammon pointed his celestial sword on the two bandit treasure hunters. "Get lost or I'll show you no mercy?"The two bandit treasure hunters exchanged glances before turning to Ammon."We smelled the scent of the war

    The projection of Venus reappeared in front of Charlotte. "He may be your destiny, follow him!""I will not do such a thing, Star gazer Venus. I need a little more time to win his will!""I just don't want to hurt you, Charlotte so I don't want you to fall in love again with the warrior who kept you here in his home!""Then what? You're going to erase his memory of me again when you find out he's not my fated man?""Just trust me Charlotte, it's not our intention to do this but we have to do it for the sake of your kingdom. King Abaddon is coming to Alabama, there's a greater chance that you won't see your fated man again if he gets his hands on King Bartholomeo's kingdom!""What do you want me to do then?""I want you to kiss him on the lips!"Charlotte paled at what Star gazer Venus told her. "Huh? That is so awkward!""We have no other way to find out who your fated man is besides a kiss!""I just feel it's so awkward think about kissing someone you just met let alone kiss them on

    The King sighed before he continued speaking. "The negotiation went smoothly until one day, King Abaddon decided to continue his pursuit in taking over Sherlock's kingdom after discovering about the fullmoon's power that allows them to have omnipotent power. King Solomon tried to stop him but he was so naive and persistent. King Solomon then decided to consider King Abaddon his sworn mortal enemy and swore to kill him with his own hands. King Abaddon succeeds in defeating Sherlock using his Alpha form, though I thought he was no longer interested in taking over their Kingdom, not until today. I guess, my mind cannot fathom how that evil creature's mind works!""And what is his greatest weakness my father?" asked Prince Arthur."His main weakness is the sword you wield, the great Tizona sword! Not even his alpha form can match against its slash. The Celestial King once told me that it was intended to kill evil creatures like him . So I have a huge expectation that you utilize it someda

    In the Canopus, Zendaya and Olivia were kneeling down before King Abaddon who was standing in front of them. In the past three days, King Abaddon cast dark magic to them, thereby losing their consciousness and the only thing that they know is to follow orders from King Abaddon."Now is the time for both of you to show if you are worthy to become my Queens. Once Charlotte showed up, all you need to kill her using your dark magic. Of course, I want to spice up this epic battle that is why I am going to execute King Solomon and Queen Elizabeth in front of Charlotte and her fated man.

    Finally, the day has come for Prince Arthur and Charlotte, who are already prepared to face King Abaddon in the land of Canopus. In the Frozen Cave Stream, Charlotte was standing next to Prince Arthur who is currently talking about their plan before going to their most fierce fight against the werewolves."Heed on what I am saying," said Prince to all the 11 Zodiac warriors standing before him. "As you see, Alexander has no plan on going with the war and I am not forcing him to join us. I know this is the very first time that we will battle without him, after all he is considered the third strongest among all of you so I regret upsetting him!""Prince Arthur, please do not blame yourself for what happened," Serban, a cancer zodiac warrior said. "Alexander has always been like that, having a small patience once he does not get what he wants. As for now, there is no one who can replace his position!"Charlotte then speaks up. "You've got a wrong idea Serban, I am not going to stand arou

    The Zodiac warriors, Prince Arthur and Charlotte were practicing on the frozen cave stream. Queen Veronica was staring at the window and she shared what is happening to King Bartholomeo."It seems they are having a serious training Bartholomeo. Only if you can see what I am seeing right now, you will be proud of how your son led his team!"King Bartholomeo sighed. "I don't give a damn about them. Do whatever they want, they are not worthy of my praise and attention!""I have a change of heart, I wanted Charlotte to become Prince Arthur's Queen in the near future. Aside from being so gorgeous, I think she will be supportive as well. I wonder how long is she staying in Alabama to be great at using her katana, something that I've never learned!""She obviously forced herself to learn how to use a katana simply because she wanted to protect herself. I think many warriors attempted to take advantage of her!""Then that only means our rules are not strong enough as there are many warriors w

    Prince Arthur was very upset with the decision of his father. He dragged Charlotte's hand and left without saying goodbye to his parents."Arthur, just where do you think you're going?" asked Queen Veronica."Let him do what he wants," said King Bartholomeo. "If there is anyone who can defeat King Abaddon, that's only Arthur. Have you forgotten? He is carrying the weapon made solely to defeat anything we considered darkness? Let's have a faith in him. But it does not mean I'm not against his mission, there is no way I'm gonna forgive King Solomon with what he did to us... still, that Charlotte is a perfect Queen for Prince Arthur!"Meanwhile Prince Arthur summoned all of his Zodiac warriors in the frozen cave stream. Then Prince Arthur introduced Charlotte to them and they were shocked to see her. While Charlotte kept her eyes locked on Prince Arthur and she avoided looking at anyone else."Please I would like you to know that this beautiful warrioress beside me will be the next Queen

    After their intimate sex, Charlotte rested on top of Prince Arthur who was hugging her tightly."Are you alright?" asked Prince Arthur."Of course. I enjoyed having sex with you, Arthur!""So do I. Don't worry, I will keep my promise to you. But still, I need to formally introduce to you my father. He needs to know my relationship with you!""I will be glad if you introduce me to your father, Prince Arthur!"Charlotte and Prince Arthur woke up and took their clothes. They went on King Bartholomeo's room and he is awake and beside him is Queen Veronica, having heart to heart talk to him. They were surprised to see Charlotte, especially King Bartholomeo who woke up upon seeing her."Such a goddess face, is she the one you wanted to be Queen, son?""Yes father," answered Prince Arthur. "Her name is Charlotte and we are here to discuss some personal matters. Can we come in?""Of course!" said Queen Veronica. "My hunch was right, you were not the one who arranged your messy room yesterday!

    Prince Arthur clenched his fist in anger. "Dammit! All this time, I really thought you are the Queen I have been searching for. All these times, I could not believe you deceived me about who you really are. And not just me, you also fooled all the warriors and warrioresses you interact with within the Alabama!"Charlotte cried and kneeled down to Prince Arthur. "Do whatever you want to me... but please, there is no one who can save my family other than you. The stars in the skies destined you to become my fated man!""Charlotte listen to me, saving your kingdom from the hands of Abaddon will put this nation in great danger as well. My father would not allow me to deploy warriors just to save your family from the hands of King Solomon. He would gain nothing from that, besides I wanted to avoid fighting with the werewolves as of the moment. So no, I cannot grant your request. I don't want to be harsh but it's impossible mission!"Charlotte wiped her tears. "Is that so? Then I guess I ne

    Stargazer Venus was guarded by the high-ranking werewolves and contrary to what she said earlier, she effortlessly traced Charlotte's presence in the frozen cave stream. And she was her practicing with Prince Arthur. In as much as she'd like to keep watching the beautiful scenery, her top priority at the moment is to inform her about what is going on with their kingdom. Again, she created projections of the werewolves to distract Prince Arthur."Wait Charlotte, I felt there were werewolves around this area!" said Prince Arthur. "Stay here while I'm finding them!""But I can fight as well, please let me help you!" said Charlotte. "I am tired of being the useless in the battlefield!""No Charlotte, these werewolves are totally on a different levels. I hate to say this but you are no match for them!""But what if they attack me here? I have no other choice but to protect myself!""Charlotte, please believe in me.

    On the other hand, Elizer returned to Canopus empty handed. But he made sure he already prepared himself for any punishment that King Abaddon would give him."What happened to your mission?" asked King Abaddon to Elizer, he was seated on his throne with his arms crossed over his chest. "Make sure that it's something I expect you would say, otherwise you know what punishment I will inflict upon you!"Elizer, who was kneeling down on his knee spoke with a confident voice in order to perfect his lies. "Your Majesty, I tried going to the borders of Alabama. However, Prince Arthur, was the one guarding along with his Zodiac warriors and Amazonians. Honestly, I am too strong but beating them is impossible even for me.

    Charlotte smiled at Prince Arthur. "Now, do you like the story?""I very much do! As a matter of fact, I could not believe how he outsmarted those bunch of morons. I've realized that you don't need to have powerful troops in order to win. What you truly need is to have a great leader who will bring the success in your nation!""Not only that," said Charlotte. "A king who acts arrogant and impulsive will never win a war. Hence, if you try to outnumber your enemy, it does not guarantee your victory as well!""Impressive... you're brilliant Charlotte!" said Prince Arthur in amazement."Well it was such a nice story, I did nothing except to narrate it!""No, you delivered it nicely and your opinion about this story is accurate. Anyhow, we can go to sleep now and we will tour the Alabama tomorrow morning!""Shouldn't your priority come first?""I am actually tired of doing this repetitive task.
