The Next Prince, Chapter 7 pg4
“You can't escape the truth.”
“….”
“It's time you stop acting like a child. Everyone has a duty. Remember that your most important duty now is to go back with me.” It was as if fuel was poured on fire, Khanin's temper flared up again when he turned back to face the older person.
“Duty? What duty? I'm an ordinary person, born and raised here. I'm not an Emmaly, I have no duty to go back and do anything for anyone... Stop talking nonsense. If you want to go back, go ahead!”
“...”
“Go! Leave before I lose my patience with you!” The younger man's body shook with emotion. Charan locked eyes with the younger man before lowering his head as if counting down, uttering the next sentence in a flat voice that provoked the listener no less than before.
“I apologize for bothering Your Majesty... My main purpose for coming here is for you.”
“The what!!!..”
“You have to bear with it, no matter how annoying, because I will come here every day... until I can take Your Majesty back.”
“...”
“It is our duty, and I hope Your Majesty will understand.”
…
Moonlight shines through into the once dark and damp room, casting its glow within the four corners. The musty smell and the gloomy atmosphere make this place not particularly pleasant.
The sound of fingertips tapping on a heavy wooden table indicates that the owner of this body is deep in thought. It takes quite some time before the action stops.
“Our people who followed Charan... sent this picture.”
The image on the communication device is striking. It shows the sole heir of the guardian deity clan offering a handkerchief to a young man.
“Who?”
“We're not sure yet... but from the reports, it seems this person is particularly important to Charan...”
“...”
“And our people have found some interesting information.” The latest sentence piques the listener's interest, prompting the mysterious figure sitting in the middle of the room to gesture for the explanation to continue.
“At first, I wasn't sure, so I had our people test it. As expected, Charan is protecting this boy...”
“You mean he's important?”
“Yes, our people investigated the boy's background, and this is what they found.” Various pieces of information are uploaded onto the communication device. At first glance, this young man doesn't seem particularly interesting.
However... what intrigues the person sitting in the chair more than anything is...
Khanin Preechasit, 21 years old.
Father... Tattanai Preechasit.
“This is...”
“Yes, the same person as Tattanai, the businessman from the Kirakul family who died in an incident twenty years ago.”
The confirmation makes the listener's senses sharpen to the extreme. The mysterious person on the sofa suddenly stands up and grabs their cell phone, sending a message to someone.
They... wait in silence, as the quiet room's ticking seconds move forward, consuming a full hour before new orders are given. “Kill the boy.”
TBC.
You kissed me, and that kiss will last until I die. How can I erase the mark of that kiss? It won't go away.
Don't forget, don't fade away.
It's nothing, Nin. Mom is just singing. Haha.
Go kiss them, and they'll know right away. Haha. Crossing the sky beside you.
