BXBX NOVEL Chapter 36 - Intruder
"And then… the evil queen, dressed as an old woman gave snow-white an apple, but it wasn\'t a normal apple, it was a poisoned apple…" Said Alfonso.
Everyone was listening attentive to the story, even Artemis was all ears. Alfonso looked at them, it was quite funny to see everyone reactions.
"As expected of a classic" Thought Alfonso.
"We will continue on Monday, it\'s getting late after all" Said Alfonso with a sly smile.
"What.. Uncle you can\'t do this! You must continue!"
"That\'s right Little Al, you can\'t leave it like that!"
"Alfonso, you better continue or else...!"
Everyone made their position clear, the only one who didn\'t speak his thoughts was Tailor, however, everyone could see that he also wanted to hear more.
"Calmed down, I also get tired you know, Tailor, take Pit home and repast the class, on Monday, we will see more complicated things, so you need to have this memorized" Said Alfonso with an exhausted voice. In fact, he was really tired, walking from the manor to the town and then back is very tiring, it takes at least twenty minutes walking, of course, Alfonso could just use a horse, however, he was a bit afraid, so he insisted on walking.
Everyone made a complicated face, however, Alfonso didn\'t say anything else and went on his way.
"Ahh.. I am tired..."
Alfonso went inside his bedroom and just thrown himself on the bed.
"Being a teacher is exhausting, I can\'t do this for a long time, I have other things to do, however, I have to at least give Tailor a base to start the massive education program in Wasteland Valley" Thought Alfonso.
Alfonso was planning this from the beginning, he had two goals in mind; first, he had to begin a massive education system in wasteland valley, however, he couldn\'t do it himself, at least, not for a long time.
"I don\'t have the time or the capacity to be a teacher, I somehow managed with two, but, more than that is impossible, the fact that Tailor is a teacher sure save me a headache, with him learning the basics he will somehow do it….. I hope" Thought Alfonso.
The second goal in the main of Alfonso was the crucial one, in fact, this idea of his surge when he was thinking what economic model he need to use.
"Being Capitalism or Communism they have a basic law within, and this law go back to 1789 with the universal declaration of human rights, first article, all humans are born as equals... this is must in order to use one or other model, however, in this place….. This law isn\'t applicable!" Though Alfonso.
In wasteland Valley and in all Leitol, the concept equality didn\'t exist, for example, a baby, who was born in a commoner\'s house, would never be able to become a noble, even if he became something like a scholar, they won\'t be able to make enough money to being a noble, furthermore, the merchants that make a little bit more of money, had to report their goods to the lord of the town, if they exceed a certain amount, they will be forced to give part of that money, in exchange, they gave an "honoree medal" that gives the commoner the possibility to ask for protection once, however, this medal was just n ornament, because the laws also says that the lord have the right to refuse the request if they consider it to be too dangerous.
"But this isn\'t the clearest example, the clearest one are that anomaly called the champions!" thought Alfonso.
The champions, humans that are chosen by the gods of this universe to fight the battles that couldn\'t fight, how they choose one, what criteria they have… nobody knew… however, what its clear is that when one became a champion, it means a complete change in his or hers life, and not only for them, also for the town they live in.
The town that the champion called his or her home will receive the protection and the blessing of the god, The monarchy family will instantly give the title of noble to the family of the champion and the town will be exonerated of paying tributes to the royal family as long as the champion lives; the champion in question will receive a "gift" from the god and will become a man above men, Also, the royal family must give the champion an option, he can became a head scholar or became a general of the battalion that he chooses.
"The capitalism model is based on the premise that we are all equals and have the same chances as everyone else… what a joke, even here, the commoners are different from the commoners on Utio town… even myself could be, at most, a merchant in a more successful town like Vega City" Thought Alfonso while making a slight sigh.
"Taking this in account, I have to use the communism model… which is basically forced everyone to be equal….. Well, kind of…. I mean, I don\'t think that Marx thought like this but well….." Alfonso was having an internal struggle.
"Well, anyway, I better sleep for now, tomorrow will be the day that Cerberus wakes up, it will be interesting" Though Alfonso while closing his eyes, He instantly felt in a deep sleep.
......…
It was past midnight.
Alfonso was happily sleeping, when he felt…. Something…
"Hey, wake up….."
Alfonso didn\'t answer.
"Alfonso…"
The "thing" shook Alfonso, despite this, Alfonso was still sleeping.
"I told you to wake up!"
*SLAP*
"FUCK!" Alfonso almost cursed, he opened his mind and saw sitting on him, She was a beautiful woman with perfect white skin….and a pair of wings on her back.
"Artemis..?" Asked Alfonso.
"Alfonso….. I have something to say…. Will you... listen?" Said Artemis with a timid voice.
Alfonso didn\'t know what was happening, he only had one thought on his mind.
"She looks….. So beautiful under the moon…" Thought Alfonso.
"Wha…. What is it….." Said Alfonso
He could hear his heart beat increasing.
"Alfonso..." Said Artemis while looking straight in the eyes of Alfonso.
Alfonso was on the verge of collapsing.
"This… this couldn\'t be…..it couldn\'t right!??"
"Alfonso…. Don\'t panic….
But...
I am not Artemis"
Alfonso\'s face instantly became pale.
