Alfonso's face when pale, Perseus gripped harder the dragon's neck.
"Please…let me… explain…myself…" Said leviathan who almost at the point of suffocation.
Perseus looked back at Alfonso who nodded.
"You have one minute," Said Perseus.
He threw him to the floor, however, Leviathan didn't say anything, he just looked at Alfonso with some gratitude.
"Is as his highness says, I indeed would need a large amount of blood to revitalize my energy, however, In the past days a notice came to me, my brother, the king of the seas, has fallen by the hands of the crown prince of Greycastle, it happen so that my sister was around at the time of the fight, she retrieved one of the heads of my brother and called me, she has always been kind and took care of us since we were dragonites. She proposed to me and my other brother to meet in our birthplace in two years, I told her about my situation and she agreed to give me the head of my brother to revitalize, however, I need enough energy to go there, since the journey is long, that's why I want your help" Said Leviathan.
Alfonso and the others looked astonished at this information, however, what surprised Alfonso the most was that someone has actually managed to defeat the king of the seas!
Leitol and Greycastle had been enemies since the beginning, however, as the saying goes, know your enemy and yourself to win, Alfonso and his brothers had studied all the information they got about the powers in Greycastle.
Like Leitol had the Lockheart family, Greycastle also had a royal family.
"The Laplace family" Though Alfonso.
The Laplace family had been in the power since the beginning, contrary to the Lockheart family who had been in power since the five generations, the Laplace's where the first ones to acquire the power and stood there since then.
"The Laplace family had in total five members, the current emperor, Henry Laplace, also known as the calamity emperor, the queen of the sands, Henrietta Laplace, they got married about thirty years ago and gave birth to two children, twins, to be more acquire, Julianna and Marvin Laplace, however, the head of the family isn't decided by a patriarchy, the strongest assume the throne, just like here in Leitol, so, how is that possible that there is a 'crown' prince?" Murmured Alfonso.
"That I don't know, however, my sister told me something else, it seems that the one who defeated our brother was only twenty-something years old and yet, he is almost as powerful as your father, the current emperor, William Lockheart!" Said Leviathan.
Alfonso's heart from cold and he started sweating.
He knew his father, although he hated to the bones, he had to admit that he wasn't a rival to him, not to mention him, even if his brother Fernando and his sister Diana joined to defeat him, his father wouldn't lost, at the very least, he would be able to escape and, in the best case, he would be able to kill Diana and Fernando!
"The only people capable to defeat my father is the head of the four dragon families, and that is they joined hands, that's how of a monster is my father, and you said that this twenty-something year old man is almost at his level!?… what's more" Said Alfonso.
Suddenly, A figure of a small boy with black hair appeared in the mind of Alfonso.
"It's impossible for Marvin to have that kind of power, not him" Declared Alfonso.
Everyone looked at Alfonso quiet with doubt.
"It sounds like you know him" Said Perseus.
"… more or less" Said Alfonso with a bitter smile.
Alfonso seemed to know something more, However, he didn't say it.
"Anyway, what I say its all from my sister's mouth, so, this is my propose, I already arrange someone to protect you for three years, in addition, I will give you some dragon's blood and an old tooth of mine, keke, my teeth are almost as hard as the material of the seven legendary swords!" Said Leviathan.
Alfonso analyzed the proposition of Leviathan.
"How much blood do you need?" Said Alfonso.
"A liter would be enough!" Said Leviathan with enthusiasm.
Alfonso smiled and lifted two fingers.
"I will give you two liters!" Said Alfonso.
Leviathan eyes shined like stars!
"However, I want to change the deal" Said Alfonso.
"I want to make an alliance with you… or to be more precise… an alliance with the dragons!" Said Alfonso.
Everyone was stupefied by Alfonso's words.
Leviathan's eyes shrink.
"What… what do you mean by that?" Asked Leviathan.
"I am not stupid enough to believe that you will meet your brother and sister just to make a funeral and have some tea… you are preparing something big, I want a piece of that" Declared Alfonso.
Leviathan eyes showed his surprised.
Perseus smiled.
"Indeed, this kid remains me when I was young, he is worthy to be friends with" Though Perseus.
"What kind of alliance are you proposing?" Said Leviathan.
"Let's discuss the details later, after all, we are all very tired, come to Wasteland Valley in two months, you will be my personal guess, however, I will give you a small advance…" Said Alfonso.
His smile grew colder and colder.
"In an event that you were to suddenly attack the royal family… I wouldn't mind giving my bastard father a visit to settle accounts" Said Alfonso.
Everyone's heart skipped a bit.
Leviathan looked at Alfonso before smiling.
He nodded and then disappear from sight.
"You are pretty clever… as well as cunning… I like it" Said Perseus.
"You honor me" Said Alfonso.
"Well, it's almost time for me to leave, I had one small request though, I don't know if you might hear it, friend?" Asked Perseus.
"Your wish is my duty" Said Alfonso with seriousness.
Alfonso was truly grateful to Perseus, he was a person of principles, Perseus saved him and protect him not only from Drako but also from the other powers that were aiming at Wasteland Valley, he even protected him from an unexpected guess, the void dragon Leviathan!
What? Do you think that Leviathan came with good faith since the beginning?
Please, if Alfonso was alone, Leviathan wouldn't ask so...politely.
"Thank you, friend is not that big of a deal, when I came here, I faintly manage to sense the aura of my wife, Andromeda, I wanted to ask you to look for her and protect her" Said Perseus with a serious expression
"Don't worry, I will be sure to find her, it's my, Alfonso's Lockheart, promise!" Said Alfonso.
"Thank you, friend, that calms my heart… well, it's time for time to go… I pray that it won't be too long before we see each other once again" Said Perseus with his charming smile.
"WAIT!" Shouted Alfonso.
"What is it?" Asked Perseus.
Alfonso looked in his pocket and, from god knows where, picked pen and paper.
"Can you give me your autograph?" Asked Alfonso with a serious face.
"…" Perseus.
"…" Everyone else.
"I am a big fan" Added Alfonso.
