After finishing the nightmare that his wife, Henrietta, had tricked him into doing between the two lovers, he opened the door with Derflinger on his back and saw his daughter against the wall sleeping with a bodyguard watching over her. Saito gestured the body to leave and picked up his daughter who didn't awake from the movement and began to walk to the throne room. Reaching said room, he opened the large doors and walked into it and saw that the Queen did not have anyone to answer to today. Saito continued his walk until he handed their daughter to the mother.

"Thank you honey." She said to her husband.

"Yup, Marie wanted us to go out today and I am guessing she fell asleep waiting for me to finish." Saito said as he took a seat on the opposite throne.

"She does have your stubbornness Saito."

"I am pretty sure you helped in that." The duo began to laugh which they have done for many years. The sound of their laughter began to wake their daughter as she began to move.

"Soft…" Marie said as her head was on the breast of her mother who blushed at the comment. Saito tried with everything in his body to control himself from laughing

"Yes Marie, yes they are" Saito thought not daring to say it out loud knowing the wrath of a woman.

"Saito, you have turned our beloved daughter into a pervert" She said joking with her husband.

"I did no such thing, do you wish to settle this like men?"

"I am a woman Saito dear."

"Gender matters little, let us duel." He said jumping out of his throne and grabbed a wooden play sword. Henrietta placed her daughter on her throne and grabbed one as well.

"You may be the greatest weapons master in the world, but you cannot defeat the power of a woman, you handsome knight."

"Then for all men in the world, I shall not-" His voice was stopped by Henrietta kissing her opponent who was about to say he would not fail. "That is cheap Henrietta!"

"A woman's got to do what a woman's got to do." She commented charging him with the sword as he blocked it and made a half attempt to counter attack. This resulted in him losing his sword due to her hitting his with a lot of force. Saito fell onto his knees in defeat and was looking up at the victorious woman. "Mercy?" He asked as the winner touched his nose with her finger.

"No."

"Nooooooooooooooooo!" He shouted as he fell on his face in defeat to the ruler of the land. Clapping came from the throne as Saito got himself back to his feet to see their daughter being the one who is clapping.

"Yay, women are the best once again!" She said as the trio began to laugh in unison. This was Marie's favorite show, seeing her father lose to the hands of her mother to see who was the strongest in the country. Placing the wooden swords next to the throne once more, Saito grabbed Derflinger and looked at the woman in the family

"Shall we?"

Life in the capital city has improved over the last ten years since Saito became the King with Henrietta helping him learn the rules of economics and politics. Saito, being the somewhat rebel he is, threw the rules aside and experimented with ideas from his world. The result, the most money the capital has ever seen along with an improvement in housing and culture flourished. Needless to say, this was the golden age of the country of Tristain. The family walked down the street and to every persons surprise, no guards accompanied them.

"Dad?"

"Yes Marie?"

"Mom always told me that monarchs always have guards when they are out in public, why do we not have any?"

"Because I am here but also the people of this city have grown to love us because of the laws I have set place long ago." Saito said wave to the shop owners and other people of the middle and lower class he helped bring up from the shackle of slavery of nobility.

"What are these laws?"

"When you are older, you will now, for now, lets go shopping." Henrietta said changing the top to something the Marie loved as much as any other girl, shopping. Marie dashed out with her mother leaving Saito alone as he gave a sigh.

"Agnes, make such they are safe please." Saito said as said women appeared from the shadows.

"Yes sir." She said as the captain of the Henrietta's private guards moved into the direction of the two female monarchs.

"Life must be tough being both a father and leader of this country you majesty." A shop owner behind Saito said as the Gandalfr turned to see said shop owner.

"It is tough at times, but I wouldn't give it up for anything to be with those two." He said leaning on the counter in a non noble fashion.

"It is still good to see that our King still looks out for us commoners." The shop owner said cleaning a sword.

"I still am a commoner at heart, I just have the title of King, I am still one of you and won't ever forget it."

"That is great to hear, I wish the same could be said for the other countries" This caught the King's attention.

"Is there something that I need to know?" Saito said getting a surprised face from the owner of the sword shop.

"You haven't heard, every country on the continent besides Romania is having trouble dealing with their commoners, refugees have been coming to this country seeking refuge as a result." Now that he mentions it, Saito has had to sign papers are citizenship for many people recently and approve of new housing as well, but why did-

" Henrietta… I'm sorry, but I have to find my wife, good day to you." And with that Saito ran off into the shopping district to find his family and more importantly get some answers from the one who handle diplomatic relations between the ruling duo.

Author's Notes – Ok, seriously, first freaking try and someone got it right, what the hell!? (It is the French Revolution, congratz Guest199f7) Anyway this story feels like it is going too slow but I think the next few chapters will get us out of the set up faze and into the real thing… I hope.

Ok, new challenge… ugh… ok I got it.

What should Marie be more of?

A sword fighter like her father, a mage like her mother or a magical sword maiden. (combination of both and my personal choice)

…

Really… is that the best I can think of… Oh well, vote on in the reviews and ugh… we'll go from their? Hey, im trying my best to get you guys involved in this story dang it.
