'Well, they have given this a lot of thought...'
I mused as I sat in my study room, one perfectly belonging to that of a ruler, with just this small walk to the throne room, I have co to learn a lot about the illusion I am in, for one being that 'I' am very well respected here, one of great power and position, and it would point towards having a very high intellectual power and strategy.
From what I saw, the people here don't seem to move on mana, yet there are a lot of ard powerful n, well-trained in what seems to be martial arts, and for a king like with no power to command such respect would an that I hold a very high level of intellectual might and rule over this place with great control.
There is also the fact that I seem to be a great ruler, for everyone had respect and awe for , while the situation of the kingdom itself shows that it's on a good track. For all the servants I saw, only had happy and contented looks on their faces. This also moves towards the soldiers and more.
Showing the place itself has great stability and power, plus the actions and movents of those ministers only showed to push more information to , their wit and cold-heartedness opening up a whole lot of information.
'It seems I am also very ruthless too and very hyper-focused on the happiness of my kingdom.'
For the ministers to even ntion the fact of getting rid of another kingdom without much issue would an that the 'I' here would have been very welcoming of the idea, and no matter how powerful a man, for a person to be okay with getting rid of a kingdom for his own would an he should be willing to bear the sins for the death of millions.
And to take that action for a kingdom would show a man very loving towards his own place.
'But this is not the end...'
I mused as I read the letter in my hand.
[
Love,
I have missed your presence all this while, I miss your touch, the sweet words you have whispered to that day, the warmth with you had hugged , and everything you gave given , that day you took my body and heart, and I yearn for the day you march in here and take my hand in marriage and make your queen.
I am writing this letter not just to show you how much I miss you but also to tell you that I am pregnant! and it's been a week since I have confird it. I haven't spoken of this to my parents, for I wish for you to present this revelation, along with our love, to the world together.
I pray for you to reach fast, to co here and sweep off my feet, to keep safe within your arms.
Missing...
And...
Loving you...
Seraph...
Princess of Dorkins

'Wow, they really know how to create a ssed-up situation.'
I had found this letter the mont I entered this study room, it being laced at a very prominent place for to find. Not only that, several such letters lay professing the love between '' and this girl, and hence a situation has co where 'I' have to choose between the kingdom, one that 'I' am sworn to protect, and 'my' love, seemingly also 'my' child.
A choice between love and duty, one that can break any man, and I a student studying within the Babylon Academy are to take this decision.
'Yeah, they are going a bit far.'
Just as I thought this, a ding sounded out within the room, my eyes traveling towards the window, where an owl perched upon, its beak hitting upon the window, calling up.
'Hogwarts, is that you?'
Joking to myself, I walked towards the window. I opened the window, leading to the bird swooping in, dropping a parchnt on my table, and flying away.
'Cool, only had seen such things in movies.'
Taking all the situations happening around like a vacation, I walked up to the parchnt, unfurling it, and started to read it.

Sir Austin,
We, the mbers of the Ultimatum, set on protecting the lines and blurs of all evil and safeguarding the world, have taken a decision on your stance. We have co to know about the situation surrounding the attack from the red line, and we wish you to take a special action depending on it.
We have co across a special power that shall be able to hold back those abominations and push the red line back out of the world, giving this world a sense of peace for at least the next 10,000 years. But for it, a great sacrifice would be needed from your side.
While we prepare for this impending power, we would need you and the kingdom of Dorkins to be a sacrifice for the greater good. You need to take the lead in the attack, driving these forces away, while we plan to activate this power within the Dorkin's territory, a high chance of both your kingdoms vanishing exists yet that shall protect this world for eons to co.
The sacrifices done here shall be recorded in mory, forever etched into the minds of all generations. Do not forget, Sir Austin, your family for generations have protected our realm, and this is now ti for you to do the sa.
We shall begin our preparation soon within the Dorkin's territory. Hope to see you take the right action. If not, the sins you will carry for not saving this world shall follow you even in the afterlife.

'Now that is so good bullshit.'
Reading all this, I had to try my best to stifle the laughs trying to burst out from , wanting to give a big handshake to whoever the teacher was who wrote this parchnt.
'Cause he or she had fun doing it.'
Though then again, this will be a very despairing situation for anyone else. On one side you have to respect your kingdom, on the other side, you have to protect your love and your own child, while at the sa ti receiving a death notice for protecting the world.
'A fight between duty, love, and sacrifice...'
Are the teachers testing to see what side I shall choose? To know if I shall fail here? To know if I shall fall into despair? Or to know that if I have complete indifference to anything and everything?
'Nah... being a hero doesn't suit at all...'
To sacrifice myself for so world that shall forget after so ti? Why the hell would I do sothing like that? Moreover, I will display myself to the world as a hero yet at the sa ti, I shall enjoy the fruits of evil all villains have—money, power, won, and debauchery.
The funny thing would be while I will be praised as a hero to the world, the true hero shall be villains that the world shall prosecute.
'Funny, a test that I thought was stupid only reinforced my will on the path I have been hesitant to trudge on.'
A smirk lit my lips as I tore the parchnt to bits, my eyes peering into the outside world that looked so real yet its fakeness can't be hidden for . I hated being tested by so old fogies, and I have so great idea that this is all happening without the much-needed attention from my dear aunt.
'I will be a hero, a hero that will decide how and why the world will be.'
Feeling a sense of fullness, I turned to walk out of the study room, the eyes of the soldiers and servants eting as I walked through the hallway. All the eyes focusing on , and I just don't an the eyes here, I can feel the detailed eyes of my teachers focusing on the action that I shall be taking.
Till now, while the expression inside kept fluctuating on a high level, outwardly, I always kept a calm front, no matter how many situations these old fogies gave , and now they shall see that not everything can be under their control.
And not everyone can be bent to their will.
