Episode 88 - Country of Music 2 'Eugene's unwanted spotlight'

The King raised his hand, motioning for the instrumentalists to play.

"Well, well." The King paused. Continuing, he spoke with sympathy in his voice. "Why don't you relax and release all your tension from your long trip by listening to some music?"

Before anyone could reject or refuse, he sternly added. "Please sit."

"......." Didn't we get tense because of you? Eugene rolled her eyes in her head, walking with the others to their stoned bench to sit.

Ario moved to the King's side and continued his introduction. "My King, this is Duke Earnest of the Marleigh family, and Duke Amos of the Rodriguez family. They are Xenperia's military general and Xenperia's Great Noble's." He motioned with his hands to Duke Marleigh and Duke Rodriguez as he spoke.

"Welcome, Welcome!" The King spoke with a smile on his face. His previous prey-like behavior, no longer on display.

'Bi-polar?' Eugene blinked at the King's sudden change of character.

"Thank you very much for inviting us. We will be in your majesty's hospitality for the next five days." The quiet Duke of Marleigh spoke, nodding his head to the King.

'The quiet man will take care of all the talks this week?' Eugene looked at Duke Marleigh in surprise. Even Louis, Ron, Aeselak, and Euria looked at Duke Marleigh in shock.

"Hm!" The Emperor hummed, nodding to Duke Marleigh.

Motioning to the children, Ario continued. "These are the 8 Paladin of Xenperia, L-"

"I know who they are." The King cut Ario, raising his hands to stop him from speaking.

'Again?' Eugene glanced at the King and Ario in suspicion. Raising her eyebrows, she thought back to the Chinese drama her former manager forced her to watch.

The King was rude. But his rudeness was the type of rudeness of a typical romance-tragedy tv genre. He was like those overbearing male-lead characters doing the wrong things to get his female-lead.

'Hmm..' Eugene rubbed her chin, turning her detective radar on.

According to her insights, men in these types of shows treat the person they fancy badly because the person they fancy doesn't return their romantic feelings. Seeing as to how the King always stopped Ario from talking, or when he showed the whole world he just bedded four men, this theory was definitely right!

'So when he showed those four men to everyone, it wasn't to us, but Ario huh?' Eugene finally concluded.

'Ario sure is brave to refuse the King's advances.' Eugene glanced at Ario.

Ario was currently smiling gently towards them, as if nothing was wrong, as if he was never interrupted. To this Eugene wanted to laugh!

'Ahh.. this King!' Eugene shook her head in her mind. 'Even though he stands above everyone, is a Supreme leader who commands overall, he still can't get a man he likes!' Eugene gently tapped on the stone-bench she was sitting on in fascination with this situation.
