Avoiding the Emperor

"If ever I want to bring him to my country"

General Commander, Rold athelstan is the first-born son of Elizabeth and Lucho Athelstan. He is a kind of man with a looks and brain with addition of being born from a very prominent family he is very popular even now that he became a general commander of the Lighting Knight which he himself named after becoming a commander.

After the great war of Kalia, Harp and their country it's not just the Emperor who have risen but also many people who greatly contributed in making the success of the war. At the time when the two country Kalia and Harp united in order to destroy them it was Rold Athelstan which at that time is just an apprentice suggested a strategic plan in order to counter the attack of Kalia and Harp. The result is already obvious which made him climbed to being a commander of the Lighting Knight.

After the talk of Theo and Osiris, the Emperor immediately scooped Lucious who is sleeping peacefully.

Theo just watched him on the sideline with a smile and thinking how much Osiris changed so much in just a span of some months since the last time he met him.

"Now that I think about it, The General commander of Lighting Knight have the same surname of lulu "

The Emperor looked back at him. "lulu?"

"What? you don't know his nickname? "

"Don't call him that"

"eh? why? I don't want to"

"just don't, it's unpleasant to hear it from you"

"anyway, are they related?"

"He is Lucious brother"

The next day the Athelstan family is exactly visiting Lucious. As soon as Lucious notified that his family is there visiting him he immediately walks where his family but on the way he saw the Emperor and Theo who is also somehow walking on where he was going.

"Good Morning lulu " Theo greeted with a sleepy voice and still rubbing his eyes.

"Good Morning Prince Theo " Lucious Greeted back with cheerfulness

On the other hand, The emperor bend down a little and slowly approached his face until their lips touch with a peck.

Theo looked at his friend with wide eyes while Lucious was taken aback and they both looked at the Emperor who just smiled at little and looked at Lucious adoringly.

" Lulu! " A load voice was suddenly heard almost through the whole corridor that startled Theo for a second time.

Three tall and handsome men rushly run towards them with almost teared face and they enveloped Lucious squeezing him with their embrace while showering him with kisses and praises.

" We miss you so much our baby "

" Come back home we miss you! "

"Our poor lulu! go home already "

With voices who are continuously speaking they no longer differentiate who said those words. On the side the Parents of these brothers especially their father, Lucho can't help but to hold the anger he was feeling because of the way his sons are behaving in front of the Emperor.

"Greetings to the Emperor!" Elizabeth and Lucho greeted and kneeled pulling their three sons to do the same.

" Mother! " After the greetings Lucious can't help but to voiced out his eagerness to see his mother. He immediately run towards Elizabeth and hug her tightly and the people around them felth the warmthness in their heart. And so, the Father and Brothers followed.

Theo can't help but to feel a little bit jealous on how loving the family in front of him and upon knowing Lucious' character he no longer surprise why the people around him is spoiling him to rotten specially Osiris.

After, the Emperor all invited them inside to have more comfortable time together. Osiris was about to pull Lucious in his side but even before he moved his hand those three brothers already pulled Lucious on their side and kept him occupied. Though it didn't show in his face the Emperor is greatly upset and just kept on looking at Lucious while his brothers keep on pampering him.

This scene is very obvious to Lucho and Elizabeth that made them even wonder why this perfect man is very obsessed in their very troublesome son who would anytime choose sleeping, food and girls over anything.

" Greetings, I'm Theo Hozard third Prince of Dystopia Country " Theo introduced himself to the head and wife of the Althelstan.

The Althestan couple was a little surprised but they both retain their professionalism and greeted back Theo.

" It's our pleasure to meet the third prince of our allied country, I'm Lucho Althelstan and this is my wife Elizabeth. These three men are Lucious brothers, Rold, Aiden and Sen. " Lucho introduced while pointing at his sons.

" To be honest I came here to ask a favor " Theo started

" Anything you ask your highness "

" Rold Athelstan " The three brothers who are currently crowding around Lucious suddenly stops on what they're doing and looked at Theo especially Rold which was suddenly called.

" I read about your heroic deeds during the previous war especially your strategic plans that became one of the reasons of your triumphant " Theo stopped for a second and continued.

" A war is about to happen in my country, initiated by mo own brother. I already gathered enough soldiers but there is still something left and that is a good strategic plan and someone who could guide us throughout the war. I know how dangerous it is but could you consider going with me in my country?" Theo sincerely looked at Rold.

"of course, I would gladly give my service to our allied country" Rold dignifiedly responded that earned a relief smile from Theo.

"Then you won't be in Lucious wedding Rold " Aiden nonchalantly commented

Elizabeth fiercely looked at Aiden who is getting a food and giving it to Lucious. She looked at Rold nervously and he can completely see the hesitation in his face.

" Rold it would be a great honor for our family especially to Lucious if you could aid the allied country for their success " Elizabeth tried to console his son's apprehension but Rold was already stunned.

" Think about it son, contributing to the success of our allied country would greatly benefit your good for nothing brother, Pardon me your majesty " Lucho continued who is already nervous on the other hand Lucious made a displeasing face while Osiris just glance at Lucho and nod though he want to retaliate his remarks he can't think of something.

it's okay, its Lucious' asset

" i-is there a problem?" Theo asked nervously.

" Don't worry your highness we would make sure we would go with you even if we have to drag him " Elizabeth said assuring Theo which made the Prince even more nervous.

" b-but ... Lulu's wedding is very important even though we don't want him to be wedded I still want to see him on his special day though I don't want him to " Rold said dejectedly while muttering the last sentence.

"Pardon him your majesty he doesn't meant it " Lucho said while looking at the Emperor who just nod is response.

" Rold Athelstan you better mark your words! " Lucho said almost shouting.

"b-but father I ... "

" Be mature Rold, we are in front of the Emperor and the Prince of Dystopia " Elezabeth said firmly.

"a-actually that strategic plan I offered during the war was really f-from - " Rold said slowly but was cut off when Lucious shouted that surprised them.

" BROTHER ! don't you dare "

"b-but I'm just telling the truth if I don't say it they will separate us lu! "

"stop it brother were not living in the same house anyway! "

"Lucious don't talk like that I'm still your older brother! I'm deeply offended! " Rold said almost tearing up.

"brother don't shout you'll scare him" Aiden suddenly joined.

" I'm not! "

"yes, you are brother, just go and do you duty " This time Sen also participated.

"What? so I'm now the bad guy? If I know you two just want to monopolize my lucious!"

and the four brothers continued their bickering while their parents are still retaining their patience but it is evident that in any minute now they would explode in anger.

" Your majesty and your highness please pardon our unnoble behavior " Elizabeth said and they bowed deeply.

" i-its alright .. actually, it's quite amusing " Theo said while the Emperor just nod and sip his tea.

Lucious is also cute when angry ... Osiris thought.

"Stop it all of you! " Elizabeth said firmly then smack his four sons with his fan.

The brothers stopped and sit properly because their mother is already glaring at them angrily and they know if the emperor and the prince are not here, they are already disciplined in a violent way.

"now ... What is the thing you about to say Rold? " Lucho asked

"father its nothing it's not real-"

" Lucious shut your mouth or I'll grill your pet " Elizabeth said seriously that made Lucious to suddenly zip his mouth.

" Rold " Lucho again called his eldest son.

" the strategic plan that I requested during the war was not really from me, I'm not the one who thought about it " Rold honestly said that made everyone surprised especially Theo.

"t-then who?" Theo asked

" i-its Lucious " and so they all looked at Lucious who is now pouting while glaring at Rold.

Lucious looked cute even more when pouting
