Chapter 52: Chapter 52
“Waiter’’ Come here and pour me a drink, you f*ucking peasant.
Arslan looked, "good, a perfect scapegoat to test my strength"
Arslan picked another cup of wine added to the one on his tray from another butler and then walks to the table. Jake commanded Arslan to hand over the cup of wine on his tray, Arslan lifts the cup from his tray stretching his arm arm towards him, Jake was about the grab the cup of wine from him and suddenly Arslan retreated his hand then place the cup of wine into his lips and drank the cup of wine completely. Then Arslan sighs
"Hmmmmm, that was refreshing, I needed that wine to clear my head. This foolish nobles who don't know who their true king his''
"What did you say to me? Jake grunted his teeth, ready for a fight
"Yah, yah" I wasn't really talking to you. I was talking to myself, I felt that some nobles are idiot". Arslan smiles at Jake winking his eye brows.
"You, baaastard, Jake about to stand up from his seat when Arslan splashes the cold liquid wine on his face
"Guy cool down, your blood is way too hot, beside I don't think my father is not the hash one but I tell you, am not bragging but I advice you not to call me a bastard in front of Betty or mother. They are the bad ass villain of the world and will skin you alive. she will boil you alive".
Arslan sudden change of attitude, made Jake and his friends and a few noble sons with Jakes father blood boil, Jake punch his right fist into the air aiming at Arslan's face however Jake punch became very slow as Arslan could see his fist ramming into the air, the reason was that Jake punches was very fast but
Arslan training as made Arslan too fast that he could see Jakes punch while in motion, there Jake found it difficult to touch him.
Jake punch his left fist and right and he continues to thrown continues punches at him however Arslan kept escaping Jakes grabs, he could practically see were the punches was coming from right before it hit, soon Jake's friends agitated join the punching parade with different magic strapped around their fist. The guest and noble watched the ordeal.
Arslan kept evading their attacks and then made a frenzy of them by allowing them hit one another falling to the ground, Arslan dusting his suit as if he was cleaning some unwanted dust off his body and looked at them
"You, Jake, I challenge you to a duel on the day of the tournament. I will prove to you that peasants are way better than noblemen" I am going to beat you all to pump.
"What? The entire hall shouted, Fellow noble son and guest began to curse at him because of their pride was deeply hurt. They stand atop table with various magic ready to pounce on Arslan like hungry wolves then door swung open, the crown prince and entourage walking into the hall, surprised to see Jake and friends on the floor and some noble son atop table ready to devour Arslan.
The door swung open, prince Darius on a lavish decorated red robe and his knight walking in as other noble returned to their various sit.
War Knight Thaddeus of Qing- a tall man with straight face and a thin mustache, he was a righteous follower to anyone who is king on the throne and currently appointed as first knight of Qing , he wore a dark amour walking with the prince and he solemnly spoke
"What is the meaning of this? The kingdom is at the blink of war and yet you nobles are playing house '' court minister Alexander Reinhard he called looking at Jake's father
" It seems i have been insulted twice today," Reinhard spoke,
"Do you expect me to remain in a calm frame of mind when a peasant brat insults the pride of all nobles, a peasant challenging a noble because he was in league with a noble and the lowest of all nobles. He has to be taught a lesson" Reinhard spoke angrily with other nobles nodding their head in agreement.'' Von slams the table with his Palm
'' How dare you insult my integrity, I do remind you that my loyalty had remain firm and unquestioned even when my rank was reduced by King Marcus. i do warn you...."
The prince cuts in Von "I'm told that this man is your butler, can you explain the meaning of this rebellion" the prince questioned
Von opens his mouth about to speak when the prince cuts him.
" I have heard enough of peasants not knowing their place, Von Don Alexander are traitorous clan who lost their place among nobles when they supported the tyranny peasant queen and now these'' he dispassionately looks at Arslan with a contorted face and turns to Von
'' You should count yourself lucky that you were allow into my father’s court. i might not be so lenient with you, my father was a weak king and i don't intend to be one. I will rearrange the order soon enough '' he looked at Arslan
"You in league with a traitor, you challenged the noble sons, who among the nobles you challenged to a duel" he questioned Arslan while he looked at the twelve noble sons Assemble in front of him
Arslan was about to speak when Jake cut in,
"He challenged me and other noble to a duel"
Humph! The prince had thoughts for a second with his hands placed on his chin, he sat on his throne
“Quite interesting, a duel, peasant against a noble son’ this would be to my advantage, for years peasants have come to believe that if they work hard they can grow their status to an higher class. I will make an example of that believe. The princess equality Felicia idea moving around the kingdom with all believe nonsense mentality that all men are equal. I will destroy that believe and that tyranny queen won’t work in my reign either, he looked at Arslan dispassionately and said
"Here is your punishment
