You Are Not Fit To Lead
While Xavier was so upset about the guts that Prince Harry was exhibiting right there in Persia, Prince Harry was excited to make Xavier feel that way. The more upset Xavier was without being able to do anything about, the more joy Prince Harry had inside him. It gave him a sense of being in control.
Prince Harry ignored Xavier when he talked about Persia returning his head to Magus on a stake if he spoke carelessly at Prince Bane.
Well, they had better prepare to do that because Prince Harry was not going to filter his words while talking to the Prince Of Persia, as far as the union had come to pass after more than one thousand years of waiting.
Prince Harry was shown into the throneroom, only for him to see the much talked about Prince Of Persia, Prince Bane the first, staring at him as he entered the throne room through the large castle door.
The tension between both Princes was evident as the first show of respect and reverence from Prince Harry to Prince Bane would be that Prince Harry would bow before the Prince Of Persia.
''Good day, Bane.'' Prince Harry immediately started off the conversation on a wrong foot, just so that Prince Bane won't have the slightest inclination that he still had power over Magus.
Prince Bane swallowed hard at Prince Harry's statement. Already, Prince Harry was looking for trouble, noted.
At that point, Prince Bane was not expecting Prince Harry to bow to him, not after Prince Harry had directly addressed him with his first name, Bane.
''I sent your entourage back to you the other time.'' Prince Harry took a seat in front of the Prince Of Persia without even being invited to sit down.
Prince Bane was just staring at the young Prince Of Magus. In fact, as far as that union had held, Prince Bane's hands were tied, but he would definitely push his luck.
''The union has come to stay. My brothers and I have married the Usylon which makes us exempted from the eight kingdoms. So, you now rule over just seven kingdoms, Prince Bane. I came here to officially discuss the process of the new treaty and the official handing over of everything that belongs to Magus.'' Prince Harry said to the Prince Of Persia with so much guts, the Prince Of Persia could not believe his ears.
Prince Bane was very upset at this new development because Magus was the strongest of the eight kingdoms, and also the Kingdom that Persia benefitted from the most in terms of man power for war, food, and other material and social profits.
Magus contributed to more than seventy percent of Persia's wealth. In fact, if Magus stood alone, they would drown Persia in no time except Persia sought help from the other kingdoms that were under them.
Prince Bane stared at Prince Harry for quite a while after the Prince Of Magus had stated the reason for his visit. He didn't know where to start from to address what Prince Harry had said. If only Sent had succeeded in making the union not to come to pass, Prince Harry would not be there running his mouth at the notorious Prince Of Persia.
''Your so-called wife is a wanted felon.'' Prince Bane's voice was low, yet audible, and it carried the audacity of the Prince Of Persia, even Prince Harry could not doubt the magnitude of the tone of Prince Bane's voice.
His position as the Prince Of Persia suited him perfectly.
''I don't know about that.'' Prince Harry scoffed.
''She was robbed. My wife explained what happened. She was robbed of some valuables while she was making deliveries at her former job, and that was how she became wanted. However, I have refunded every penny spent and more. So, I don't think there is any issue with that anymore.'' Prince Harry said.
''If you have refunded whatever was lost, that's fine, abut that has nothing to do with the fact that she has to serve punishment for her crime.'' Prince Bane was adamant.
''What crime?'' Prince Harry rolled his eyes.
''For the items that she stole.'' Prince Bane replied.
''I just told you what happened. She was robbed, didn't you hear me?'' Prince Harry was getting upset but he tried to control it.
''Then she will be arrested and tried in court before the matter settles. You know how things are done, don't you? Especially as you claim to be a Prince, I am worried that you don't know these things. I am rather disappointed.'' Prince Bane started to flash a sneer, seeing that he was gaining the upper hand against Prince Harry.
Prince Harry's eyes flashed with anger.
''When are we signing the treaty?'' Prince Harry ignored Prince Bane and moved straight to the point of his visit.
''Harry, you are not even fit to lead Magus. You don't know how to rightfully charge and acquit a criminal, but you want to rule a kingdom as big as Magus. Tell me, how does that work?'' Prince Bane finally got up from his throne to assert dominance over the Prince Of Magus, seeing that he had the young Prince on a spot.
Prince Harry's eyes dialted as he watched Prince Bane start to advance towards him. Prince Harry clenched his fist and looked at the Prince Of Persia directly in his eyes as he came close to him.
''You are joking, right?'' When Prince Bane eventually got close enough to Prince Harry in a bid to tower over him and make Prince Harry sundue to his prowess, Prince Harry suddenly but slowly got up.
Prince Bane was taken aback as Prince Harry got up and towered above him. Prince Harry, the first Prince Of Magus stood at nearly seven feet tall, while Prince Bane who was usually regarded as a tall young man, stood a little above six feet.
''When are we signing the treaty?'' Prince Harry asked.
