Victor told his servants to make sure that everything had to be done. So all of the servants went to work, except for one, Mike. Mike decided that he has done this too long. He has been a servant to King Victor for the past fifteen years. Every day he was being told what to do, and how to do it. He was sick of it. Therefore, Mike revolted against Victor. He told the rest of his servants the plan he had for revolting.
The next morning, Mike was able somehow get to the marketplace. Since it was Tuesday, they had a two for one deal on dragons. Every Tuesday dragons go on sale; everyone knew that on the manor. So Mike decided that two dragons are better than one. Now, how is he going to get the dragons into the peasant houses without King Victor seeing? He kept walking through the marketplace when he found a monk selling crosses. The monk came up to him begging him to buy a cross. Since Mike didn’t have the money to buy one he wasn’t able to buy one. But he wondered if he could trade for one, so he could use it to pray before going against King Victor. When Mike went to talk to the monk about trading for one, the monk got offended. He started yelling at Mike because he thought that he was telling him his crosses weren’t good enough to buy. The monk, named Mickey, then told him just to leave and never come to him again. Mike left the marketplace to his house, with his two new dragons.
The next morning, Mike woke up, and found some of the crops he was growing were burned. He thought there was a tribe that came through the manor that night. Then he remembered. He has two dragons. Mike didn’t want King Victor to find out about this so he covered the crops up with all of his belongings and was going to tell Victor it was so the crops would grow better.
Today was the day that Mike was going to revolt against King Victor, by himself. He realized he needed an army to face the world’s best, Victor’s Army. Victor has been in power for twenty-five years and has put up the best army in world history. Mike went to all of the other peasant houses on the manor that day to find some other peasants to support him and revolt against King Victor.
He found fifty-five other peasants to help him. He has been around knights for plenty of time in his life to figure out what they will do when they revolt. He also knows how to train his people to defeat the knights.
Since Mike had to train all of his fellow peasants to revolt, he had to wait to revolt, if he wanted to be effective. He still though had to train his two dragons. He had a long to do list therefore he had to train people to train the dragons and take care of them to get through the training faster.
He trained five of the fifty-five to train the dragons, control the dragons, and use them in the revolt. It took Mike two weeks to train these selected five, but he still had to train the other fifty to become knights.
He took the next morning to go to the marketplace and get horses for his knights. He came across Mickey, the monk that yelled at him about a month ago. He was the only one at the marketplace that had horses. Therefore, he had to buy the horses from him. The monk recognized him, but since Mike had the money from the other peasants chipping in, the monk was forced to give the horses for the money. He was only able to get 20 horses though.
Mike got all of the horses back to the peasants and they were all ready for the revolt the next day.
Since nothing ever goes right, the knights were out of the castle getting ready for battle. Mike saw this and was forced, again, to put the revolt on hold. Because of this, Mike had more time to think of his tactics for the ambush.
The next day came and Mike looked at the castle. No knights. This was his only chance at becoming a hero. He got the peasants, horses, and the two dragons. They went to the castle’s walls. The two dragons burned down the walls. First, Mike sent in the twenty knights on horseback. Then the other thirty came on feet. The majority of Victor’s Army wasn’t on horses, so Mike’s army was already doing better than he expected. The dragons burned most of the walls down. They were able to corner King Victor and he finally surrendered. Once Victor surrendered, the rest of his army was forced to surrender because they had no leader.
After Mike’s army won and completed the revolt, they had to appoint a new king. The first thought of the perfect king was Mike. Mike didn’t think he would be a good king. The peasants that helped him revolt against King Victor, helped him with his confidence by telling him he’ll be a great king.
Later that month, Mike was appointed king and improved the manor forever. Mike then passed the manor down to his son, Jim and the story tells us that there is still family ruling the manor of, Mike the Magnificent.
