My Triling System

Chapter 58: The king’s decision

"Where is my daughter?!" Pretta said as she ran towards Sophia and grabbed the collar of her shirt.

"I know you took her, you thief. You want to take my daughter like you and your students took the bloodstone ten years ago."

"And why do you think I took your daughter? Is she a bloodstone? or perhaps she has blood magic running in her veins into her heart, haha? get away from me Pretta." Sophia kicked her away from her but Pretta came at her again.

"No, you get out of here. Get out of this paradise and go back to your trashy land. We don't need you here, we don't want you."

The soldiers that were in the palace had moved closer to stop the two from engaging in any fight.

"Oh geez, what are you going to do if I don't leave? Gang up against me with your ridiculous students."

"They are not ridiculous students!" One of the teachers raised his voice.

The soldiers tried to drag Pretta away from Sophia but she built an oval dome using her wind spell, enveloping both the two of them inside the dome.

The teachers had moved closer to the dome as they tried to stop the two adults from fighting each other but they were unable to do anything.

"I'm not leaving his bitch alone until she tells me where my daughter is." Pretta pressed her hands on Sophia's neck. But despite this, Sophia was calm and didn't attack.

"Pretta, please let's resolve this matter." Adam finally said.

"Your highness, can you see what's going on now?" Sophia yelled with all of her might so everyone could hear her words. She raised her two hands as she continue speaking amidst being choked by Pretta.

"You guys can see that I'm not attacking anyone. I came in peace and you all see that."

"Pretta, get away from her at once!" The king roared. "Don't you see that we are discussing before you came in? You would be punished for disobeying the king's orders if you keep on hesitating to stop."

Slowly, Pretta released her hands from Sophia's neck but she still had her eyes fixed on Sophia.

"Pretta, step away from Sophia now," Adam demanded.

At first, she hesitated, but subsequently, she started moving backward from Sophia and then canceled the dome.

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief as soon as the dome was brought down. They all went to their places and the king ordered the two adults to stand far away from each other.

"Your highness, I hope you've already considered our negotiation done, 'cause I won't be waiting for you to hear the thoughts and suggestions of the heads of the school," Sophia said. "No, not after I was almost strangled to death by one of their former teachers."

"But the king has not made his decisions." A teacher objected.

"He will now." Sophia giggled to herself. She glared directly into the eyes of the king and her mouth silently chanted a spell. After saying a few words, an evil smile ran across her face.

' He's just as weak as every other Elf. His mind is easily penetrable.' Sophia smirked within herself.

"Your highness, so what is your decision? Should we continue as the queen as suggested?" Adam asked and Sophia was more than glad as she heard him ask the question.

' Now repeat whatever I say dear King and once I'm done talking, I want you to do as I say. Remember, all that you'll be saying comes from your mouth and mind.' Sophia said, eyes locked on the king's. Her mind control spell was active and was used on the king to achieve her goal. She had first wanted to use it on the teachers who would be voting for and against her demands, but now it seems like using it on the king would be much better.

"I have thought about Sophia's request. And I've given it a decision. I won't be going by the Queen's verdict this time around." The Queen was shocked as she heard this. If she were to check, this was the first time the king won't be heeding her advice. But the Queen as cool as ever didn't even frown her face. She kept the smile on her face as always and accepted what the king said.

It's a good thing the Queen didn't object to the king's decision otherwise it would be harder to ignore the Queen's advice. Evelyn was such a gentle girl since when she was a kid and everyone knows that. So she's not going to get angry. At least not in public like this.

' That's a matter later between the two couples.' Sophia said as she continued with her mind-control spell on the king.

"Therefore, just as Sophia had requested. I want it to be done as she wishes. Let the mage academy turn to the school of dark and light creatures. Let the borders be opened for the parents from the Dark Creatures to enter.

"Give them houses they could live in. Make sure it is located in a place far from where the light creatures are. Set a rule that anyone that trespasses the dark land will be punished strictly. Both he and his family will be punished."

"Let there be Deans for both schools while Adam will be the head of the two schools just like before. The syllabus and teachings should change to how it once was fifteen years ago. That's my decision. Do whatever Sophia wishes. Everyone has been dismissed, I need to rest my head, I'm having a headache."

"But your highness!" The teachers had all started complaining.

Still, under Sophia's control, the king replied to the teachers.

"Are you all challenging my order? Do you want to be punished? Then do as I say. The dark creatures are now allowed to reside with the light creatures. Put an end to every class that's going on today and move the students to the Former school. Use magic to re-design all the areas that need design.
