After dispatching the initial troops, Philip and Alfonso looked at their entourage away.
Alfonso muttered softly. Pray that the universe will bless their every step.

Alfonso who was supervising the training of the general soldiers of the kingdom that morning was visited by one of the top officials of the kingdom
"Commander you're working hard. Take a leave of absence and go on vacation with your wife" the tax general joked to Alfonso who of course did not respond
Alfonso considered them royal high-ranking only ignorant men thirsting for money could be ordered at will by the empress and Eros.
"The inhabitants of the city, both market and inland, are very warm about your name, commander. Your display is very interesting" he said stale
"go if you don't have a job" Alfonso said briefly
"Your loyal bodyguard Filips is as fierce as you are. You tau? he's got a woman's head on the market"
Alfonso. He ordered Philip to send the woman's head to his house. But Filips put the woman's head on the market.
This is no stranger to Alfonso. Filips had incredible cruelty.
So Alfonso was not too free to give the task to Philips concerning human life.
If released, then Filips can become uncontrolled
Because Philips' humanity will simply vanish.
DUGGS!!
Alfonso kicked one of the soldiers' feet.
"Fix your horse!!" alfonso's orders of walking watching his soldiers ignored the greedy old man who was blabbering in front there.
Tired of his chatter that Alfonso did not respond to, the old man left with a downcast face annoyed.
"Damn it, I can't even stand close to him. How could the empress have me establish a good relationship with her and influence her to join the alliance. He was even as flat as a wall" his grunts along the way, not knowing Filips passing before him turning back to follow him.
Filips smiled cunningly behind his running away toward Alfonso.
"Sir, you must not believe what I hear" said Filips gleefully
"You don't have Filips?" Ask Alfonso
"Come Lord" said Filips pulling Alfonso away from the herd
"Master I heard the tax general was trying to get close to you on the empress' orders. He wants you to join the alliance of Eros and your consort, join Master. You're an expert in disguise" Filips said easily
"Hmm then join them Filips" said Alfonso surprised Filips
"What??The master!! I'm not the one to join but you! where can I work without you sir" grumbled Filips who would not be able to fly without Alfonso's control.
"I feel like you're pretty good at disguising yourself. Take this role. Club them. I'll keep leading you, you calm down. After all, there will be many benefits that you will get" said Alfonso trying to test the loyalty of Filips in his own mission without having to stick to Alfonso as usual.
"Ah I don't want sir. If you take it then I'll come along" said the stubborn filips
"You take it or I'll break your leg" Alfonso said
Filips swallowed heavy saliva.
"Well, you break it. It would be better to break my leg than to have a fake laugh with the traitors" Filips said, raising one of his legs after closing his eyes with a silly face that only Alfonso could see
Alfonso exhaled slowly
This strange man was very loyal to him.
"You're so weird. There will be many benefits if you join them" said Alfonso
"Nothing is more profitable than my life, sir. Ever since you saved me from the ridiculousness of killing myself, I've been giving my soul and body to you" Filips said dramatically but seriously.
"Huh if Sofi hears this then she will think a strange strange Filips. Don't get too attached to me in front of Sophia do you understand?" Alfonso's Order.

Alfonso and Philip and the emperor were more and more busy preparing and maturing plans in secret.
Naturally no one was aware of the existence of a large rebellious community that was being formed by these two arrogant couples.
They continue their activities as usual.
The emperor who carries out his duties and duties is like an emperor in general,
Alfonso will continue to do his job as usual
they're very expertly disguised, aren't they
Alfonso busy, he tried to keep having time to Sofi his wife even though lately he always came home late at night.
as of this time, the weekend he took Sophia to the market, to the restaurant where he used to visit with Sophia, occupying a private place
"Darling, my drink is not good, I want yours" said Sophia
"Why did you order it earlier" said Alfonso, who used to hear Sophia whining every day
"I'm curious. Here is yours" said Sophia take green tea belonging to Alfonso immediately sipped it
Alfonso could only shake his head at the behavior of this rare woman
"Open your mouth" orders Alfonso to feed slices of bacon to Sophia's tiny mouth.
"Emmm very good" said Sophia smiling with her mouth full of chewing
Alfonso had to make sure his wife was full first he would eat his food.
"Honey, maybe in the near future I have business in kingdom X. And it will take a long time" said Alfonso trying to condition Sofi when the day comes
"Alright I'll be with aunt Ma" Sofi said calmly
"Aunt Ma will be in love" said Alfonso looking for simple words so that Sophia does not misunderstand
"Then where am I going? I want to come too then" Sophia said again whining
"Do you want to visit my parents? my father and mother" Alfonso said, feeding Sophia cuts of meat
Alfonso has been thinking about this for the past week
There was no safe place for Sophia other than her parents' home.
"Father and mother? Want me to. I miss them." said Sophia cheerfully making Alfonso calm
"When do we visit? don't be long yes, I still have to pack to come with you to kingdom x" said Sophia burn Alfonso's calm lost to ashes
Sophia still wants to come.
"I'd love to leave you to mom and dad first. Stay with them until I pick you up hmm?" alfonso said understandingly.
"You didn't bring me? you're leaving me?" tanya Sophia pouted.
"This is not a trip dear, there are important matters concerning the sovereignty of the kingdom and the empire" said Alfonso.
"Are we in danger?" ask Sophia
"Are you going to war? nay!! you can't leave then" continued Sophia raising her voice
"I'm the warlord dear" Alfonso's inner cry. If he admits to going to war, then Sophia will be anxious and worried.
if Alfonso does not admit to going to war, Sophia will whine to ask to come along
"We want to find a woman to be Philip's wife. Yep!! Filips needed a dear wife" Alfonso admitted, for the ridiculous reason of carrying and sacrificing the name of Filips.
