Under control

Eliza was very surprised when she comes out of Alexander's room on a blind morning before the waiter comes, but it is not the waitress who surprises her but her father.

Her father's face looks cold holding back anger but Eliza instead changes her shocked expression with a smile as if she hadn't made any mistakes.

"Good morning, Dad."

***

"Disappearing from your engagement party and getting out of your brother-in-law's room the next day is a shame. Did you secretly become a romantic relationship with Alexander? Do you love him?"

Darius was so angry that he asks Eliza in a hurry, but Eliza's face shows absolutely no remorse and instead plays her hair casually.

"Remember, this is not my intention to bring you into the palace," Darius said again, his eyes lit up describing his anger at his only daughter.

"Why do you look so scared, dad? Alexander and I just had a great time last night."

"Having fun? You slept with him, Eliza! What if Anthony gets angry when he finds out his bride will be unholy anymore." Said Darius, he raised his tone so that Eliza could be realized because Anthony was the only way they could rule the kingdom of Etona.

But Eliza sighs lazily. She then raised her gaze and then woke up, she poured a glass of blood into the cup and gave it to Darius.

"Dad, Anthony already knows that I've slept with Alexander."

Darius almost choked up to hear the confession of his puppet princess.

"How could you..."

"There's nothing to afraid of, even Anthony isn't holy anymore. I can feel the power of Airin fused in his body."

Darius placed his cup, he stepped towards the window and looked out of the palace.

"How do you know?"

"That's my advantage, I can see the aura mixed up when that person has already had sex with anyone. It's going to be very clear to me, so I'm going to take it easy. Anthony only has the ambition of becoming king to find his lover's killer and we can use it to rule this palace."

Eliza raises her smile before she finally leaves her father's room.

Darius knew that Eliza's power wasn't so special, but her intelligence and ambition could help him get the kingdom of Etona as he had wanted from a young age that he could never master because he was only the second prince and had no more abilities than Arthur had, so he could not force him to become king, but Anthony was different.

But even so, Darius was worried that his daughter would get caught up with her own game let alone know how big Alexander's ambition to become king was.

Once again Darius passed his gaze out of the palace, seeing how the people of Etona looked prosperous and prosperous.

"Either way, I will make you king and I will take your throne, Anthony." Darius then smiled with ambition, he then stepped out of his room to attend the royal meeting as usual.

***

Unlike usual, Anthony never attended a royal meeting but this morning he was among the nobles, right in the line of the nobles who supported him to be king while Alexander stood by Arthur as if affirming his position if he were crown prince let alone with Anthony's presence in the middle of the meeting.

"I will announce to officially appoint Alexander as crown prince." Without further ado, Arthur expresses his desire to surprise the Vampire nobles. Some of them look happy but the nobles in Darius' ranks are seen to be gossiping and visibly disappointed with their king's decision.

"Your Highness..."

Arthur turned to Darius, knowing that Darius would oppose him, especially if Anthony was engaged to Eliza, it was obvious that Darius wanted Anthony to be king of the kingdom of Etona.

"Say what do you think, prime minister."

I don't mind if prince Alexander becomes crown prince."

Unexpectedly, all nobles including Arthur and Alexander were pleasantly surprised to hear Darius' opinion but not with Anthony, he remained standing still and put on a face without expression.

"If prince Alexander is indeed worthy of course will be very accepting of your opinion, your highness."

Arthur's tense face slowly loosens, he was relieved that it is beyond his expectation that Darius will make Anthony king and make Alexander and Anthony's relationship even more strained, but it turns out that Darius clouded Alexander so Anthony would but served as the royal war general Etona.

"The question is, is he worthy?" Anthony suddenly opened the voice, he asked but the smile at the end of his sentence was a mockery.

"Besides the ambition of being a king, he just acted like a prince without doing anything. I mean, not at all."

Of course, Anthony's words again shaken the nobles who had previously accepted the king's decision.

"Tell me, just one thing... What have you done for this kingdom, prince?" Anthony didn't hesitate to look at Alexander and smile insultingly. "I don't think you can find the answer."

Anthony smiled, he then turned his body and turned towards the nobles who are now split into two camps.

"It is up to you all if you want this kingdom of Etona to be led by a first prince who has never done anything, or with a second prince who is clearly what I have done for this kingdom."

Alexander pulled out his fangs, he wanted to finish Anthony right now, but Arthur held him back.

"So you don't agree with my decision, prince Anthony?" Ask Arthur makes Anthony turn back to face him.

"Strongly disagree your honor. Because anyone knows that I deserve to be the crown prince in this kingdom."

Arthur clenched both hands, he seemed to think because he didn't think that Anthony wanted to be a king. With his power, Anthony can get rid of anyone who gets in his way then if he becomes king no one will be able to hold him back if he loses control of his powers and becomes a monster.

"Then I will make you crown prince..."

"Daddy!" Alexander tries to stop Arthur but Arthur ignores him while Anthony grows more confident that he will become crown prince and thus it will be easier to find Airin's killer.

"But on one condition."

Anthony doesn't look afraid at all, he believes in himself if he's going to be able to do anything to meet the requirements Arthur gave him.

"Say, what are the requirements?"

"Conquer the witch kingdom and make it under the rule of our kingdom."

Anthony was very surprised by the terms Arthur gave him because he had sworn that he would also protect the wizarding kingdom as proof of his love for Airin.

"Why the witch kingdom?"

"Because that's where your loyalty to the kingdom of Etona is tested."

Darius begins to feel restless, everything was out of his way. Darius' beginnings thought that what he had taught Anthony would make Arthur withdraw his decision to make Alexander crown prince, but Darius didn't expect that Arthur would provide the terms that might shake Anthony, all of which were obvious because Anthony was silent.

"What if I succeeded in conquering the wizarding kingdom, I would automatically become a crown prince?" Ask Anthony once again to make sure, he looks calm but his eyes emit terrible anger.

"Of course." Arthur was convinced that if Anthony will refuse his terms, he knows Anthony's ambitions start with the goddess of the month so Anthony will not want to destroy his lover's homeland.

"All right..."

Arthur snapped standing up when Anthony suddenly agreed to his terms and after that, he stepped away from the boardroom.

"I will record this covenant as proof, which begins," Darius said that he also resigned and was followed by all the nobles and left only Arthur and Alexander frustrated because Anthony was completely unstoppable.
