The Prince

Chapter 9

I was pulled out of Abeloth and heard some people say something but I couldn't make up what they said.

I just wanted to sleep, it was so comforting inside this room. I wanted to fade away just like this...

"muel"

Who are they calling?

"Samuel"

"Samuel!!"

Are they calling my name? I just want to sleep in this posture, but what if they need me for something important?

I don't care anymore, this world can just rot to hell...

Just let everyone in this stupid world rot to hell...

What in the world am I saying?

I'm just making stupid excuses and running away cowardly.

"Samuel, you interest me. Why don't you and I make a contract?" A mysterious man with long nightmarish black hair and bloody red eyes spoke.

"Who are you? You look like a villain out to kill someone. But I don't care. Just kill me. I don't care about these silly contracts. They are just a waste of time. And seeing you, you would want the world to end right this instant. So why... why would you make a contract with someone whose personality is the total opposite of you?"

"Kukuku! Samuel, I will not kill you. Yes, they are a waste of time, but making a contract with you will be interesting. True your personality is the complete opposite of mine, but this is only an act that the stupid first king put in your head. Your personality was originally supposed to be a personality truly fit for a ruler. You presented yourself as a good-natured, respectable individual. You possessed competence and treated others very kindly.

But, that is all a facade put by the the first king to save himself and his loved ones from you. And since they cannot kill you they have to keep the goody-too-shoes act or else they'll be annihilated.

Hah! Isn't that funny? They are the All-Mighty Beings who created this kingdom. And who knew that they were scared of the human they cherished and made.

Oh and one more thing you won't be able to leave this place until I approve of it."

I just stood there standing blankly at the man, not knowing what in the world is going on.

"You are starting to f**king annoy me," I mumbled angrily under my breath.

The man stopped and heard what I said then spoke, "what did you say, Samuel? My cute Samuel actually dissed at someone, and that someone was me! Hahahahaha, this is hilarious! Looks like your true colors are finally showing."

"What in the f**king world are you spewing? Do you think I give a damn about this world and its people? I was reincarnated after trying to save a damn child from dying, and it wasn't by my own will that I was trying to save the stupid child.

I still can't believe what you said, but true all those actions of mine till now was all a facade. And I knew that... I was running away from this sh**ty world, for god knows what reason why.

Hey... old man, tell me... what should I do?

What should I do to stop myself from running away like a f**king coward I am?

Explain to me... what am I in your eyes and why...

Why do I spark your interest?

Tell me."

"Samuel, let me first tell you what you are to me and how we are related.

Samuel, you know your father in the palace who raised you since birth and cherished you like he loved you. That is all fake love, he is not your father.
