First task

"Alfonso wake up" 1

"Hmmm…"

"Its almost time for breakfast"

"Zzz"

Demeter tried to wake up Alfonso, however, after seeing him for some time, she just made a small sigh, she dressed up and went outside.

"Demeter, how many times I must tell you to sleep in your room?" Said A voice coming from the left.

"Don't be like that Artemis, you know I got to sleep with little Al~" Said Demeter with a smile on her face.

Artemis only looked at her and made a small sigh.

"Where is Alfonso? Why isn't he up yet?" Asked Artemis.

"He is sleeping" Said Demeter.

"Wake him up, he has a tight schedule," Said Artemis.

"I tried, but he doesn't wake up, how about we let him sleep a little bit more? He is always so busy… he must be tired" Said Demeter.

"You spoil him too much, what's wrong with being busy? If anything, he has a lot of responsibilities as a leader and our master, its to be expected that he is busy" Said Artemis.

"You are too harsh on him, let him rest" Said Demeter firmly.

"And you too soft on him! Let me enter, I will wake him up myself!" Said Artemis.

"Are you going to defy your elder sister~?" Said Demeter with a scary smile.

"Hooo? Its been a while since I got a little exercise, let have a go them, I have been wanting to punch that little smiley face of yours for a while" Said Artemis who changed her pupils from black to red.

"Would you mind being a little bit lousier?" Said an angered voice.

When Demeter and Artemis looked up, they notice an angered Alfonso looked at them.

"Demeter, its alright to wake me up, like Artemis said, I have a thigh schedule and few time, don't worry I can handle it" Said Alfonso.

"Okay…" Said Demeter.

"That's correct-"

"And you, what you say it's okay, however, you must understand that I also get tired, so, be a little bit more flexible ok?" Said Alfonso to Artemis.

"Hmph!" Artemis didn't say anything and only turned her head to the right.

"Now, both of you, go back to your rooms" Said Alfonso.

""Why?"" Asked both of them.

Alfonso signaled to the window, if one looked well, it was still dark with a little bit of light.

"BECAUSE, THE FUCKING SUN ISNT EVEN UP YET, YOU PAIR OF STUPID GODDESSES!" Said Alfonso irritated, he shut the door and went back to sleep.

Demeter and Artemis looked at each other and their face turned red from the embarrassment.

They have mixed up the time of the day and woke up Alfonso three hours earlier than usual.

""Ups"" Though Both of them.

.............................................

Alfonso was irritated all the morning, and for some(obvious) reason, both goddesses disappeared in the morning to do some things, Alfonso was very grumpy when he didn't sleep his eight hours after all.

"Well, it not entirely their fault… nah, screw it, it all their fault" Murmured Alfonso.

"Dad let it go already, it's bad for your health to be irritated" Said the woman at his back.

"Listen Susana, I know that I told you that you could call me Dad when we are alone, however, don't treat me like an old man ok!?" Said Alfonso with a bitter smile.

He is an old man though, a grumpy one.

"How that this felt, Dad?" Said Susana while making a sweet smile.

"It feels good" Said Alfonso.

Currently, Susana was giving Alfonso a small massage, it seems that she used to do this for Felio back when she could walk, Alfonso came to talk to her after breakfast, however, after seeing how tensed Alfonso was, Susana offered to give him a shoulder massage, Alfonso refused at the beginning, however, after some minutes of pushing the issue, he accepted.

"I really need it though" Thought Alfonso.

"Anyway Dad, what you wanted to talk about?" Asked Susana.

"You see, I want to give your first task as a minister, I need someone who is going to be in charge of being the administration of the shopping center I am going to open, basically, this person is in charge of counting the money and take measures, as you know, we are about to begin external commerce, however, our internal commerce is based on barter, this can't go on, we must begin to use real money, that's why, I will put some of the meat and goods that the Amazon give me so we can start the internal flux of money, now, you have been in the education program for a while now, in your opinion, who is suitable for this position?" Asked Alfonso.

"Mmm… well, this person must be trustful because he or she is going to handle money, what's more, this person must have above average skills in mathematics… there are only three people who come to my mind, however, two of them are already doing other things, so, that only left me with one option" Said Susana.

"And this person is?" Asked Alfonso.

"The daughter of Camel, Zeti" Said Susana.

"Her?" Asked Alfonso.

"Yep, she is exceptionally good in math, she is only behind me and little Pit… to be fair, is not for the fact that I have studied since I was a child, she would already be better than me, math isn't my forte after all" Said Susana.

"That's true, I saw your results, for someone who has studied in Dragon city you- OW, OWWWWWW! OKAY, OKAY, I GOT IT! SORRY!" Said Alfonso.

"Hmph! You are really insensitive dad, this is why don't you have a girlfriend!"

"Believe or not, your dad is really popular with women" Said Alfonso with some(huge) confidence.

Somehow, after Alfonso said that, the atmosphere changed.

"Ho? Dad, you are popular? Really?" Asked Susana.

"…no…I was just…joking…"

"OH! That's good, you shouldn't joke like that, dad, you are, the lord here, you have to take care of this land, the commerce, me, the Amazons, me, the people, me, you have a lot of things to do, so you can't be distracted by such mundane things like love right?" Asked Susana.

"It's just me, or she said three times the word 'me'?" Though Alfonso.

"Maybe this girl, it's way more dangerous than Demeter and Artemis together…" Though Alfonso.

He felt a chill on his back.
