I ripped one of her wings and dipped it in barbeque sauce before proceeding to feed it to the cats.
"I think cat's love pigeon wings." I stated in amusement.
As I was enjoying my beautiful life, I suddenly felt vertigo that was out of my dream.
I opened my eyes to see I was being carried by a running and annoyed Maximus.
"I can explain." I said to him, which he ignored as he came to a sudden stop.
"I seriously can explain why I overslept." I tried explaining to him only for him to ignore me as he lifted me up like a kitten.
"I was tired from making the PCD that I decided to take some reeeeesssstttt!" I shouted the last part as I flew.
I saw a worried Ellis and Luke soon catching up with Maximus.
Damn, I am going to have broken bones again, aren't I? I sighed as I waited for my body to impact something.
10 seconds later I turned my head around to see I was approaching the very building I was supposed to have been in.
*Crash**Bam*
I smashed through one of the windows and flew past the gathered, stunned nobles and smacked onto the wall.
"At this point, my bones should have the strength of steel from being broken and mended so many times, if the statement 'broken bones grow stronger once healed' is true." I stated under the rubble, which I was buried under.
"…" Everyone just stayed there not knowing what to do.
2 minutes later I felt someone pick me up.
"Oh, so you are still alive." A masked Dexter smiled as he started shaking me to get the rubble and dust of me.
"I am severely injured so I can't attend this meeting. Meeting postponed until I am healed." I stated to everyone.
"Do you want me to repeat what he just did to you?" Dexter asked, and I could feel the smile behind his mask.
"Meeting is reinstated due to how benevolent I am." I changed my words quickly.
Dexter carried me by the neck and placed me on the chair I was supposed to sit in.
"Ahem, let us make this quick due to various reasons." I said as I sat still on the chair.
"…" The gathered nobles still had no idea how to proceed.
"My offer to you is a 10% discount offer which can be used for 3 times." I stated.
They were all silent for a minute before they all had an enraged face. However, they didn't act it out as they kind of guessed that it must be a commandment behind that white mask. Who else would have the courage to touch and threaten an imperial prince so openly other than a commandment?
"Oh, don't mind me. Feel free to tear him apart if you want to. Just make sure he is left alive by the end." Dexter stated before he disappeared through the hole in the window.
"Asshole!" I cursed.
"Umm… I think I did. Why else would you guys be angry if I did not do it?" I asked back much to their growing fury.
"However, how about 2 new offers." I quickly stated before they could get even more pissed off.
This calmed them down.
"30% discount coupon which can be used for a grand total of 4 times." They were getting infuriated by me.
"What the hell is wrong with you guys? With the price, I am charging for high-level beast ingredients you can save 10's of plat chips. In fact, if you were to sell any of these tickets to a commandment you could earn as much as 100 plat chips." I stated in annoyance seeing their anger.
"Your highness you purposely jeopardised the future of our heirs and apprentices, along with insulting them. We require you to give us appropriate compensation for that." A buff man stood up as he confronted me.
"If I could, I would stand up to retort you, but I am stuck here. So how about listening to my 2nd offer?" I asked.
They all nodded and waited.
Waited…
And waited…
"Umm, your highness?" A person asked me as they have been waiting for close to a minute for something from me.
"Yeah." I answered.
"About your 2nd offer?" The woman asked.
"What about it?"
"You haven't told us what it is?"
"Yeah, I know. I am waiting for my staff, to bring in the documents needed for the 2nd offer." I responded.
They sighed in relief after finding out my 2nd offer was not simply a metaphor of nothing from what they observed from my silence.
We all waited, and after a few minutes, I asked. "Did any of you have breakfast?"
They just coldly stared at me.
"Just making small talks. Never mind then." I said while aware lunchtime was over.
*Knock**Knock**Knock*
"Come in!" I shouted after having waited 10 minutes.
Ellis and Luke soon entered holding stacks of documents.
"Ah, there you are. Place these files in front of me." I stated.
However, they frowned seeing the smashed windows and cracked walls along with the slumped and injured form of mine.
They walked forward and placed the stack of documents on the table.
There were about 50 documents for the 50 nobles, merchants and powerful magi's here.
"Both of you distribute these files to each of them. Along with that don't open the file or peek at it until I tell. If you do there won't be any compensation." I ordered all of them seriously, to which they all nodded.
Ellis and Luke soon started distributing the files.
Few people in the room kind of got worried how Ellis and Luke, who they have never seen before, knew all of them by name.
"Ok, now you can open it. I just wanted to see the reaction on all your faces together and not miss it." I stated.
They were annoyed but still opened the file to read it.
I could see the change in their faces. All of them were pissed and worried at the same time.
"These are the copies. So, which one do you want: offer 1 or offer 2?" I asked them.
"How dare you insult us, your highness? Is this how you pay for our loyalty?" The woman who stood up earlier now asked me with a furious expression.
Soon the other joined in and started shouting at me.
"Your highness we are aware that you are planning some sort of large public gathering. You wouldn't want chaos in such a gathering, will you?" Few threatened me.
I just listened calmly while slowly falling asleep.
"Seriously listening to all of you rambling at the same time is making me sleepy. How about this those who want offer 1 stay back. While those who want to go to complain to my dad along with facing the consequence of offer 2 please leave.
But think twice before you pick offer 2. Your kids/ heirs did not commit simple crimes but rather crimes that could warrant death and lifelong imprisonment.
Usually, my dad will close his eyes to these sorts of things as it is done by a few nobles. But if I bring these files in front of all the royal court you all are fucked." Seriously getting those detectives to do this saved my time a lot.
They were all silent after hearing it and were getting worried.
"I would make a grand exit now, but I got broken limbs so both of you have to carry me out on this chair." I told Ellis and Luke pitifully.
As Ellis and Luke carried me by the chair out, I said the last thing to the pissed off nobles. "Your discount voucher has been sent to each of your residences. Hopefully, I will see those tickets back in my restaurant soon." I said as I left.
They might want to complain, raise issues and make problems for me. But it will all be useless once the PCD is unveiled. Both the court and the public will ignore them in favour of me.
We arrived at the store and took the backup food I stored in case of emergency and ate some of it.
I popped my bones in place as I slowly healed.
Man being a 'soulless' has its advantage that solely belongs to me.
For others they wouldn't heal this fast as the energy from the food will be used for their accumulation (if one is magi), giving them energy (if one is an award user), or simply explode from energy overload if they eat too much without being either a magi or award user (due to not being to able to control the flow of energy properly).
However, for me, I had no such problems and guided all those excess energies inside my body to heal me.
I got up and prepared for the grand day.
I had placed the underground lab in strict lockdown right before the reveal of PCD to not let information about the PCD to flow out.
Many of the commandments were curious but didn't try that hard in getting what I was planning for seeing how strictly Dexter, Maximus and Titus guarded the area to block out any kind of information.
Few people in the lab were angry at being confined to the lab due to missing out on their dates or other plan but they had no choice. They agreed to this when they signed the contract.
However, most of them were simply to fascinated by the PCD and was dissecting it to understand its anatomy even right now.
Due to having not created any sort of paperwork or blueprint while making the PCD no one had a clue how it worked or anything to reference it on.
Might take them few days to work it out if all of them pooled their thoughts and ideas together, which the 10 superiors had started doing since yesterday.
The venue for the first reveal of PCD was set in a large open field. Those that held the ranks and titles of nobles were given luxurious seating arrangements.
While for the commoners it was just standing or sitting down on the ground.
I had arranged food stalls and shops to be in the area so people could go for refreshment, while for the lower nobles they would be guided to a V.I.P room served with food.
As for the nobles of the imperial court, any commandments and emperor that decide to turn up, they will have their own personal room designed to accommodate them throughout the whole event and watch it at the same time.
Dexter and co had forced me to extend the convention to next week due to needing to get as many people to join and make people waiting in anticipation excited for what the 3rd imperial prince or better known as their 'hero, was inviting them for.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
