Sire! The prince is still immature. To control this horse is not a joke.
Emperor Samprati
Merchant! Forget it. These arms are strong enough to subdue all the powers in this world.
Samprati gave a whiplash to the horse. The horse raised its forelegs and whimpered.
The merchant took it as a challenge-
If you are able to ride this horse I will gift you one hundred horses. But if not, what will you give me ?

The prince took out a pebble from his pocket and pressed it in the middle of the horse's ear-lobe. The horse calmed down.
ピンク
The cost of
a hundred horses.
Suddenly the prince jumped and took to the saddle. He tightened the reigns and the horse started trotting in circles.
MESSE
Everyone laughed.
Oh God! The horse will throw the prince on the ground. Beware princel
Now the prince kicked the horse and it galloped.
