26 Crisis!! (1/2)

While Soma was reminiscing about his past, an entire battalion of soldiers were marching towards Azuremendi Francescanis. By now Nate and Rin had their fill and where preparing to leave the restaurant when numerous soldiers surrounded the place. They blockaded the restaurant preventing anyone from entering and exiting, Nate and Rin silently returned to their seats prepared to watch a show. Nate was able to guess the origin of these soldiers and wanted to see how that young chef will deal with it.

The soldiers were really aggressive and as soon as some entered the restaurant they started to smash apart the tables and chairs while some of them assaulted the waiters, and within seconds the entire place was a mess and hearing the noise every chef and staff present in the restaurant gathered.

When Soma saw the status of the restaurant, he was enraged but the old head chef caught him by his hand talked to him.

”Don't be rash!! Calm down let me talk to them.”

Joichiro walked up to the soldiers and asked them polite but bravely.

”What's the meaning of this?!!! Why are you assaulting my restaurant and it's staff?! I hope you have a reasonable explanation, if not I will be forced to consult the Mayor regarding this.”

While Joichiro was hoping hear an explanation regarding the entire ruckus, a fat man walked into the restaurant.

”Joichiro!! Your son has stirred up trouble once again and this time even I can't help you out.”

”Rayn!! Why are you here and what do you mean by trouble?!!” asked Joichiro to the recently arrived Mayor while confused.

”The gentleman and lady assaulted by your son a while ago are the prince and princess of the NorthStar Kingdom!! Their father, the king has commanded his soldiers to apprehend him and if he resist the entire restaurant will be burned down. Someone as lowly as me couldn't possible stand up against him.” said the Mayor Ryan.

Joichiro, Soma and the rest of the staff of the restaurant were shocked when their heard the Mayor, it was even more shocking when he said that those two where the prince and princess of the defacto rulers of the North Blue.

”Rayn!! Can't something be done?!! I beg you!! As an old friend of mine could you please help me?!!” asked Joichiro desperately.

”I am sorry Joichiro!! I can't help you with this one!! Even I won't be able to keep my head if I enrage the king.” said Ryan ”I suggest that you surrender that brat to the king, it might calm him down let you and your people off the hook.”
