Harmful Smile 36 The First Problem

Ayleen had put her carriage aft of the convoy with the merchants, because she did not like the ministers very much. Plus the security was the same everywhere. Needless to say, his own safety had been quadrupled by order of the General. Lena and her knights accompanied her and were joined by a dozen soldiers of Duke Prishen fearing that her little girl was insecure. She had also taken her four maids plus the slave she liked a lot. But here again the Duke had allocated two additional coaches carrying no less than twelve maids with all the necessities that she might need. Ayleen wondered if the trip to Lyork would last more than five years. She had asked Peach to ride with her in the coach so she would not be alone. She had accepted, so they could talk, play games and laugh all day. The Marios brothers not having returned, they could not take part in the trip which was a bit of a shame according to her who would have liked to have a few more people whom she trusted around her. This first day, although locked in the coach with some breaks to feed, drink and let the horses rest had gone very well. Around six p.m, they arrived as the General had expected in a small city whose specialty was sheep's cheese. To sleep safely, it was expected that the few high dignitaries such as n.o.bles, ministers, high-ranking army officers and the Princess would receive a room but the problems began and Ayleen feared that this would be just the beginning. The town of Illanylesy had only a population of ten thousand inhabitants, the main occupation of which was livestock. She did not have a merchant guild, any more than an adventurer's guild. It was therefore to be expected that in this type of city the number of inns would be might be small. The only two hostels were located opposite each other and each had only six rooms. Added to this that some of its rooms were occupied by travelers,to house all the dignitaries was still possible. But the prime minister insisted that each lower-ranking official also have a room. He then complained to the General, who told him that it was out of his power and that he was sorry he could not respond favorably to his request. The Prime Minister, overwhelmed by this answer, decided to do things in his own way.

The Prime Minister entered the first inn, followed by his own guard, and proceeded to the bar. "It would be good for you innkeeper to put your customers on the street immediately free the rooms we can rest because do you know who we are?

Although they did not know who these people were, he was not blind. They had nice clothes and were accompanied by a small army. So they had to be very important. "I'm sorry sir but our ethics requires us to respect each client and treat him the same way regardless of where he comes from. I unfortunately can not accept your request. I think you will understand my point of view.

The Prime Minister thought he had been patient with this ordinary man but he refused, so he would pay the consequences. "I see, the guards take the innkeeper, his family, and all those guests in front of hostel and do the same thing for the other inn, tie them up, and bring the people of this idiots town together to have an example of what happens when they disobey those who run the kingdom, if they resist, you can of course beat them, it will give you a little exercise. "

In the evening the inhabitants gathered together were terrorized. Were their leaders so cruel? Murdering poor innkeepers and their families without even looking for a compromise was not the act of a human. Some of these people had even looted the stores and left without paying the bill for merchants who were just asking to be paid. A girl was nearly raped, but one of the soldiers had asked the attacker to stop this outrageous action, after which the abuser had gone away insulting the girl.

The execution would begin when Ayleen, who only wanted to go to bed, intervened. "

Prime Minister, although I do not care much about your actions, I will always ask you two questions. It seems to me that there was enough room for all the dignitaries to have one. I am wrong? Even if you kill these people, where do you intend to house your lower-ranking officials? Because considering the number of rooms, they will sleep five or six per room. Will they sleep on each other? Will they sleep on the floor? These were simple questions but deserved a reflection. "

The Prime Minister was embarra.s.sed, in his anger he had not thought of these details. The dignitaries could be accommodated because the number of rooms available was sufficient. Moreover, there were too many officials for too few rooms. "Princess, I think fatigue has taken over me, I'm sorry."

Ayleen made fun of these people but if he started to act like that, this trip would turn into a ma.s.sacre and it was the image of his uncle who would be dirty. "Never mind, free these people and you innkeeper give us bedrooms. Peach come sleep with me I'm afraid of the dark. "

Shortly afterwards everyone was taken to her room and Ayleen asked Lena to have Knights under her window as well as outside her door and then finally went to bed and closed her eyes.

Peach was astonished Ayleen was really a princess not the little plague with which she had gone to the forest. "Ayleen, sorry Princess, you surprised me. You are really different from the goblin hunter I met last time. "

Ayleen laughed. "Do I have a choice?" The last time in the forest to be frank with you, it was the first time that I felt so free, but during this trip I will not be able to show this side in public and that's why I'm very happy you're here, at least I have a friend with whom I can be different. "

Peach thinks that in reality she really had to want to be a normal girl. "Thank you for your trust in all cases Princess."

Ayleen was annoyed. "Stop calling me Princess when we are both annoying. Call me as before by my first name. Oh by the way, I bought you lady's dresses because frankly your magician's dress is very ugly. You'll try one tomorrow morning. "

Peach laughs. "Oh, are you making the decisions for my clothes now? What a bad character and what a little authoritarian girl in any case for that you will never change I think Princess Ayleen. "

Ayleen sulked. "You annoy me, I sleep. Do not pinch my cheek, I'm not a baby. Good night, stupid beast. "

Ayleen slept badly. The mattress was really hard and the pillow far too soft. Plus, she smelled like an old smell of urine on the sheets. Really, cheap hostels were not for her. In the morning after getting up, she threw four [Heal] on herself and felt much better. She opened the door and handed Lena a package. She could not help but burst out laughing. She then woke Peach who was still half asleep and threw him a splendid dress with a nice lace panties. Peach did not look at her at all and jumped out of bed to find his own stuff but they were not found. She turned around and saw a Ayleen with a big smile that put her hand under his mouth and sent him a kiss in the air. Peach feared the worst. [What did this plague do with my clothes? She would not have burned them, would she? No, she does not use the magic of fire. His storage ring.]

Peach looked at Ayleen like prey. "Ayleen my clothes are in your storage ring rea.s.sure me?"

Ayleen burst out laughing. "Lost, I gave them to Lena a few minutes ago. They are now a little in the air and a little on the floor. Dela ash actually. Yes of the ash is the right word fufufu. After trying this dress, put on the pants. I know you like to walk without panties because there are none in the room but with a dress you will agree that it will be more suitable. Unless you're hoping to please the soldiers, then that would be another story. "Peach was angry but had no choice. "She is beautiful and must have cost a fortune but it is not comfortable. This dress serves too much my size and reveals half of my chest. I will not dare to go out like this. I have always wondered how you n.o.bles dare to wear these dresses. "

Ayleen did not agree. "On the contrary, you have to show off to be beautiful and not wear a garbage bag like your old clothes. In addition I especially chose your dresses to accentuate your curves like any woman of good family who respects herself. The men of this delegation will be happy because there are no more than ten women and apart from Lena, you and I, these womans have more than forty years old. Good luck Peach. I go to lunch, accompany me where do you stay until we leave? "

They resumed the road and everything went without much incident until the third day.
