n--Silence--

nAfter Kamara and her crew took their places above the high platform at the front... The trumpets stopped playing, and the hall became deadly silent.

nEveryone opened their eyes widely and continuously stared at the trio's attire deeply.

nWho died?

nWas it their king?

nNo!... It couldn't be!

nIt was probably one of his wives.

nYes!... It had to be so.

nEveryone's mind was quick to come up with their own theories for the attire.

nBut even though they made guesses, almost all of them prayed that their king was still alright.

nOr else Terique would be doomed!!!!!

nAnd just when everyone was still lost in thought, Kamara hastily gave out a long sheet of paper to her as son Lecter.

n

"Mother... Do I really have to read it?

nIt's just too boring and long.

nSo why don't you read it?

" Lecter said pitifully while pouting his big puffy pimpled cheeks.

nKamara looked at her adorable son and her heart melted in an instant.

nBut even still, she knew that she had to toughen up her heart so as to allow her son to grow..... As well as to make others fully acknowledge him as ruler of Terique.

n

"Mother... Must I really read it out loud?

"

n

"My little baby... Of course you must!

nOnly in this way, will a lot of them see you as very manly.

nYou just say what you can and leave the great to me and your uncle Nopline.

"

n

"That's right kiddo... Just do your best.

nI have faith in you, so show them how tough you can be.

" Nopline added.

n

"Okay... But do I need to stand?

"

n

"Nope!... Not really.

nYou're the king and they are just worthless insects.

nSo of course you can do what you want.

" Kamara said reassuringly.

nYes... Her son was finally king!

n.

nListening to his mother, Lecter lifted his chin arrogantly and looked at those below him with a hint of disgust in his eyes.... as if he were indeed looking at worthless insects.

nWith that, he held the note in his hands and began reading it to the best of his knowledge.

n

"The reason why you all are gathered...eh?

nWait... I started reading from the second paragraph.

nSo let's start all over again.

nOkay... I'm starting for real now.

" Lecter said while trying to guess where he should start off from.

nAs for those below, they almost face-palmed themselves as they watched him mumble, stutter and ramble incoherently.

nThis was the guy who sat on the throne as their temporary king?

nWhat an utter disgrace!

nLecter cleared his throat and began again.

n

"Today is the day that we are...you are... I am....eh?

nMother, am I still starting in the wrong paragraph?

"

nThe audience: (*-_-)

nListening to Lecter, the entire audience almost fell down instantly.

n'Bro, why didn't you rehearse before presenting your speech?'

n'More still, can you even read?'

n'And even though you don't know how anything, why do you have to ask your mother so loudly?

nAren't you a tad bit ashamed of yourself?'

nSome people in the audience held their chests as if they were about to die from a heart attack when they once again thought about Terique's future which now looked bleak.

nWhile others rubbed their heads instead, as just thinking about their empire's current state was already enough to drive them all to insanity.

n

"Mother... My hands are paining, so can I just drop the paper now?

"

nJust try a little harder okay darling!

"

n

"Okay.

"

nLooking at Lecter struggle with the piece of paper in his hands, the audience felt like running straight into a wall.

nThe way they looked at it now, it was better for them to just have a heart attack and just sit all together.

nSo long future.....'(((＋_＋)))｡... R.I.P.

n

n

nAs for Nopline, he didn't see anything wrong with this nephew of his... And this was because Lecter truly resembles Nopline's younger self.

nSo of course he looked at Lecter proudly.

n.

n

"Mother... Should I start from here?

"

nKamara looked at her lovely son warmly and decided to cut him some slack.

n

"No, darling... Just do what you want okay?.

"

n

"Ahh... Thank you, mother!

nOkay... I'm really beginning now.

nLet's see... Ermm... People of Terique, the king is DEAD!!

"

n--Silence--

nEveryone's eyes opened widely, as they thought that maybe they might've misheard the little tyrant.

n

"Well, that's it!..... The king is dead.

nAnd since he's dead, I will no longer be a temporal king...But a....a... Erm? What's the word mother?

"

n

"Permanent darling.

"

n

"Yes... Now, I will be a Permanent King who will rule over Arcadina.

nWith me here, I promise that all of you will have fun while working under me.

"

n--Silence--

nSilence continued on until some people finally snapped out of their thoughts and came back to reality.

n

"That's impossible!!!

nYou say that our king is dead... Then prove it!

nShow us his body!!!!

"

n

"Yeah!.... Bring out his body for all to see!

nBecause unless we see his body, we can not just assume that our king is dead!

"

n

"I agree!

nSo you think that a royal death ceremony can be the same as any other death ceremony?

nWe want to see our King's body.!!

"

n

"^

"

n.

nMany people voiced out their thoughts, as they didn't believe the bullish** that had been presented to them.

nDid this brat think that they were 3-year-old kids?

nThey were also nobles and came from families we're willing and wives we're lap power-hungry as well.

nSo for years, now, that had already guessed the real cause of their King's illness.

nIt was just that they couldn't do anything because Nopline was just too strong of an opponent to take on.

nSo they had been quiet ever since.

nBut this time, they really couldn't hold it in anymore.

nDammit!

nWhat did these people take them for?

nAnd what did this brat mean by fun?

nDid he think that running an empire was some sort of vacation?

nNo!... They had to do something, or else this dimwit would really become king.

n.

n

"Where is the body?

"

n

"Our king needs to be publicly buried since he is our beloved king.

nSo where is the body?!

"

nEveryone in the audience became very heated up, as they felt like fighting for their king today.

nKamara looked at the men below and gritted her teeth angrily.

nBut before she could even protest, her adorable son quickly took over for her.

n

"It seems like you all don't understand!

nGuards!.... Surround them!!

"
