A Story Of A Country That Got Isekai'd

Chapter 12 - Hostage

Bewildered and surprised, the troops outside of the town walls have their sights aimed at the now hostile townsfolk.

"HQ! Are you hearing this?", 1st Lt. Crowall asked through his radio, in which HQ is now tapped in.

The supposed Princess then said, "Until my demands are not met, your Prince is in the mercy of mine.

But the Prince then uttered, "You sure about that Princess? My troops there could take you all out in a jiffy."

"Big words, Prince, as long that knife is touching your neck. I wouldn't think your soldiers would assault us. Mere arrow would not hit us that easily.", the Princess replied confidently. As the man holding the Prince tighten his grip on him.

"See that green speck of light in you chest, Princess?", the Prince then asked.

As the Princess look for the said light. She tried to shrug if off her but it won't budge.

"What is this? Get it off me!", she then demanded.

Knowing that it could get ugly real fast. The Prince shouted, "Under my control! Hold your fire trust...", he was cut short as the man holding him slides his feet, causing him to fell on his knees.

The Prince knew too well that the moment a chance arises, everyone on top of the wall besides him will have a bullet embedded upon their heads.

He was quickly dragged away from the top of the wall. Upon seeing the events. The soldiers are milliseconds away on firing at them.

"You heard him, hold your fire, we will now trust them they will not do anything funny to the Prince. Inform HQ what the Prince has said.", 1st Lt. Crowall ordered.

"Are you sure you can trust them? They just took him as a hostage?", a soldier then asked.

"Didn't you hear what he said? Trust him. He can use this as an opportunity to improve our current relations.", 1st Lt. Crowall replied whilst he stares at the town's walls.

"We just have been called as rebels sir, and her demands to meet our King? Very absurd thus we can't trust them they will treat the Prince fairly what more to the men with him?", the soldier asked bringing up critical issues at hand.

"Tsk, we need to call HQ, for now ready everything. Prepare for an assault anytime. Our RPG's and Spikes could easily punch through that wooden gate.", the 1st Lt. then ordered as he rushes towards the command vehicle.

Back inside, the troops that was with the Prince were strip bare and was paraded to the town and was locked on their dungeon, their weapons are then inspected by the bewildered soldiers whose weapons are only sharp iron.

The Prince meanwhile was fairly treated nevertheless, aside from being forcefully dragged throughout the town bounded in chains.

He was then brought to what seems the town hall. He was then dragged towards a large room, it what seems a throne room, but a fairly simple one.

"What with the deal, me and my men come here for peace?", the Prince then said, he is parched and tired after what he underwent through.

The self proclaimed Princess then proceeds to sit on what seems the throne and uttered, "Bold words for a traitor it seems, be silent for now."

The Prince then tried to rebut, but he was taken back as he was engulfed in what seems a very active chatter of everyone. The Knight's together with the Princess are present, some soldiers in much fancier outfits and some unarmed people in facy clothes are present.

Everyone was talking, uttering words that the Prince couldn't understand and as if he was in a market.

"Silence"
