The Domineering King of the Netherworld and His Sweetheart

6. Touch it

"What are you thinking?"

The drawly voice sounded again. It was the third time the king had spoken.

No one in the Three Worlds had ever had that opportunity to hear his voice. But today, the boy had already made the king speak three times. Moreover, every time, the king's words had been filtered out of the boy's mind automatically.

King of the Netherworld was able to detect the boy's thoughts with his power.

However, he somehow preferred to hear the boy speaking his mind by himself.

The man's eyes which seemed to contain everything in this world like the galaxy had always looked deep and indifferent due to the countless years he had lived through. And right now, a boy's figure broke into his sight for the first time.

After the boy had heard the king's words, he promptly noticed the place he was staying. And he ignored the king's question again.

He found himself in an endless flower sea. It seemed that he and the man in front of him were the only two persons existing in this world.

"What is this place? It's so beautiful!"

The boy didn't realize that he was still floating in the air. When he was going to jump, he was scared by how high the line of his sight was.

Then, being unable to maintain his balance in the air, he fell to the ground right away while shouting, "Ah..." Save me!

He didn't even have the time to say the two words 'Save me' before he fell into someone's arms.

Having shivered out of fear, the boy grabbed the sleeves of King of Netherworld at once.

"That's so scary. I thought my butt was going to be broken. It's so good to have you here. You really are a good man!"

King of Netherworld stared at his face for a short while and then raised his head with his perfectly shaped chin drawing a beautiful line. As he looked at the horizon, he said in a calm voice again, "You like the flowers here, why?"

The boy who didn't understand that question answered, "Because they are pretty!"

"The flowers here..." King of Netherworld pointed to the flower sea. Then, all the flowers started to shake vigorously along with the movements of his finger as if they were dancing joyfully. At present, the flowers seemed to have souls, competing to show their charm.

The king said, "The flowers here also call desire flowers. They can make you the most powerful person in the Three Worlds."

On these words, King of the Netherworld lowered his head slowly while staring at the boy with his clear eyes.

Seeing him lowering his head again, the boy realized that the man seemed to be waiting for his response. So he decided to respond something.

Therefore, he chuckled and grinned.

After he had laughed for a long while, his mouth had even gone stiff. But the man still had no reactions.

In fact, the boy was expecting the man to give a long speech, instead of one sentence!

It was just a sea of lowers. Even if they had a good name, they were still flowers. Why should he make a fuss about it?

"Forget it!" The man let out a slight sigh.

Lots of questions popped out in the boy's mind. However, no one was able to see that or dispel his doubts. So he had to find the answer by himself.

The boy gazed at the silver gem between the king's eyebrows. Then, he rolled his black eyes and said, "That gem between your eyebrows is so beautiful. Can I touch it?"

The boy didn't know if it was his delusion or not, but it seemed that the flower sea fell into silence in a second...
