The Mayor was a middle-aged elf, but as one would expect, there was not a wrinkle on his face. The only way you would know was through the mature energy he gave off.
In fact, it was possible that he was way, way older than that since elves could live for up to a thousand years if they had a good bloodline, and that is without leveling up.
As soon as the Mayor heard that the princess was coming to his manor, he rushed to prepare things. He arranged a room for them to meet and got everything up to standard.
When Amber arrived, she was led by a butler into the room. She took her seat inside the lounge, and the Mayor was not yet there.
They served her some green tea and biscuits, but she left the tea there—not because she didn't want it, but because she was using it to watch the time.
Finally, after waiting a bit, the Mayor walked in wearing a black elvish-design suit. He bowed as soon as he passed through the door.
"You have my greetings, Princess Amber Greenwood," he said in a respectful tone.
"Sit down," Amber said in a very emotionless manner, and the Mayor simply followed and sat down.
"You know, when a fish begins to think that he is already too big, do you know what happens to him? He is pulled out of the water and cut up to be eaten.
Or he will be cast into a bigger pond, where he will see bigger fish and realize how small he was. You are a prime example of that, Mayor Zenit," Amber said and then dipped her finger into the tea and took it out.
The Mayor was confused as to why she did that, but he didn't say anything.
"This tea was searing hot when it was brought here, so hot that I would have to blow on it before I would be able to drink from it.
And as the Mayor of this damn place, you already knew about that; there is no denying it. I am very sure that you were informed about the hotel I was staying at.
You knew about me being here, yet you sat in your manor. You disrespected the culture and the system of hierarchy. I am one of the highest-standing elves that exist.
Yet I walked into your city, and you thought it was good to ignore me. You believed that would make you look better, but it just made you look dumb," Amber said.
"Princess, please understand me. I didn't have plans to ignore you. A few things came up," Zenit said.
"Enough with the lies, you filth. I was already enraged when your people laid hands on my man, so right now, I am burning with hate and anger.
And if you say something that might piss me off, you might just die here. They were four men that started the fight with my man; I want them publicly executed.
You have three hours to find them and make sure it happens. Also, there is the guard that I smashed against the wall. He too must be executed with them.
Like I said, you have three hours to make this happen, or I will execute you publicly for disrespect to the empire and for being a traitor.
If you understand, say it," she said.
"I understand, Princess. I do," he said and bowed his head, slamming it into the table.
Amber got up and walked out, leaving the Mayor there. Find your next read on empire
The Mayor stayed like that, wondering why he thought what he did would have been a good plan. Because she was a girl? Because she was a child? What drove him to do this and almost end his life here?
One word from her, and he would have died in a second, yet he thought it was wise to do this. How stupid was he?
