6 The Gamble Wars Begin!

I was sipping on my orange juice and watching Saya, curiously wonder around the throne room. She did look cute getting lost in the many rooms. A few moments later a knight had come as Saya told me he would.

"Oh! That's the Knight I was talking about Miss Stella!" Saya pointed at him.

"Salutations Queen Stella! I am Sir Kito of the Lamburg Empire. I have requested an audience with you." Kito bowed.

"Oh?" I said and crossed my legs then looked at him.

"I have come to ask you on a romantic dinner. If you would so humbly accept my request." He said.

"Hmph..you are here to woo me off my feet and yet I don't feel swayed at all...I feel like ripping out my own eyeballs from even having a glance at your pathetic demeanor.." I said.

"I shall woo you to accept my love! My Queen, you are the--"

"Stop there." I stood up and walked to him then held his chin. "I know what you're about to say..let me tell you..sappy lines like that do not work on me child.."

"But I didn't even get to start.." He said.

"It's better that I did interrupt you because you make my vagina dryer than a thirsty man's throat in a desert on a hot summer day." I said then pushed him away.

Kito stood there in shock. He had never been rejected THIS hard before in his life. The brutal honesty I bestowed upon him made him leave the castle immediately. Saya's jaw dropped.

"M-Miss Stella..! That was brutal!" Saya said.

"My butlers could have a better chance of making me want him than that pathetic attempt that knight had shown.." I said and walked back the throne then sat down.

"You certainly live up to the name.." Saya said.

"Alright, Your Highness, I have today's schedule. The first round of the Knight Battles is against the Kingdom of Arthvia. They are powerful knights of the Arcania Country..certainly not strong enough to defeat us but strong enough to take on Saya." Victoria said.

"Uh wow! I'm standing right here!" Saya was fuming from her ears.

"Do you wish to go watch the battles with the King of Arthvia?" Victoria asked.

"Sure why not. Let's entertain him." I said.

"Right, I'll call the personal driver." Victoria walked off.

"So you're just gonna let her insult me?!" Saya said.

"Come Saya. You shall have first class seats with us in my special limousine." I stood up.

"L-Limousine? Really?" Saya asked.

"I like you, so why not." I walked off.

Saya quickly followed me and stuck close by me. A butlers opened the door for me, Saya, and Victoria. We got in and he closed the door. The driver got in the car and I smiled at him.

"Alright Haido, you know the location." I said.

"To the Lunia Arena, I already know the location, Stella." The driver smiled and started the vehicle and began to drive off.

"Why does he call you just Stella and not Miss or Queen?" Saya asked.

"He has special privileges to call me by my name without formality. Victoria does also but she thinks it'll be disrespectful." I answered her.

"Because it is, Your Highness." Victoria took of her glasses.

"When we are in the comfort of our own premises, you shouldn't worry about formalities." I told her.

"I'd rather stay formal and respectful. Your name holds a lot of weight in Arcania." She said.

"Yeah yeah, I know." I said.

After an hour of driving the driver parked in the special section of the Arena. He then got out of the vehicle and walked to our door and opened it. The people looked over and gossiped.

"That's Queen Stella.." A woman said.

"She's such a beautiful woman..and so Malicious.." A man said.

"She's known as the Dark Queen..she shows no sympathy for anyone..not even her own army and yet she still treats them fairly." The woman said.

I stepped out of the limousine after Saya and walked ahead. Victoria got out and put on her glasses. Saya stuck close to me. The people wondered who Saya was. Saya held onto my dress and blushed and looked shy. We soon made it to our seats where the King of Arthvia was.

"Ah Queen Stella..you made it after all. Come to see my knights battle against yours?" He said.

I sat down and closed my eyes. I looked at him and gave him a look.

"I only came here to watch great battles..but it's boring because it's been the same thing for Generations..they only gain materialistic things.." I said.

"Then how about we spice it up then..your name is a big deal in the Arcania Country and your kingdom is amongst the best in the land..if my kingdom defeats your kingdom, you shall take my hand in marriage...I'll show you what a real man is.." He said.

I looked at him and gave a smirk. I looked at him up and down then bit my lip and teased him a bit. Victoria and Saya watched.

"Alright King of Arthvia..I accept your offer...if my kingdom wins..your resources belong to me." I said ominously.

I felt the hesitation of the king. He gulped and felt this ominous aura around my body. Victoria and Saya looked at each other and back at me.

"Come on..My King.." I walked over to him and held his cheeks. "The chances of you winning...are so high...you'll have my people and me under your command...my body would be yours to use...it's not a bad deal...but since I bet something of ultimate value...you must do the same...your resources...and you know what your resources consist of..? The People of Arthvia... I'll let you keep your pathetic knights..I know what you've been doing with those people.."

'This woman..' The king said. I looked down.

"Come on..just say yes.." I said then rubbed the bulge on his pants. "Say yes.."

"I-I accept your challenge...Queen Stella..!" He said.

"Good.." I smirked and walked away from him and pointed to my knights. "Supreme Knights of Lunia! Show no mercy on the battlefields! Our stakes are high! I give you all rights to use the Lunar Arms!"

"Lunar Arms?" Saya asked.

"Our most valuable resource of power..the Lunar Arms have been fueled by the Queen's Dark Power..without Queen Stella, our kingdom is a laughing stock.." Victoria answered and pushed up her glasses. "Since being married to another King would prevent her from ruling her kingdom, any bet that is made to prevent her from ruling she takes seriously and you will see why they all call her the Dark Queen.."

"She's so cool..I can't wait for my friend Miyuna to meet her!" Saya said in excitement.

I smirked and looked back at the King of Arthvia. I watched him tremble in fear as I will take away the one thing he needs from his laughable kingdom. He only has one knight who can even match only 2% of my entire army. I walked back in my seat and my golden eyes shined as I let out an ominous giggle.

"Victoria, take notes of the knights progress. I want to see what changes my mechanic needs to make with the arms." I said.

"On it, Your Highness!" Victoria took out a pen.

Saya looked at me with pure excitement like a child going to the toy store. I pat her head and looked at her.

"On this day, our kingdom will grow so much, we would be able to actually make a second palace just for the families to live in, instead of those run down villages.." I said.

"Really?!" Saya said.

"It'll take time but..I am gonna make Lunia the best kingdom of all of Arcania..just for everyone." I said. "You can count on it."
