TSUKASA POV

・・・・・・

"I would just like to say that Mr. Tenma looks beautiful right now, breath-taking even. If we ever meet each other in another life, shall we go on a date?.. Okay, now you can kill me, go!" he spoke out to me, then finally resting his eyes shut and hanging his head low.

What is wrong with him..? Why would he compliment me as his last words? What's wrong with him?!

I glared at him, being confused, shocked, flustered.. it was so many different emotions at once.

I didn't really want him dead, I'd rather die with him, but as king, everybody in my kingdom relied on me for just this one person dead. I even told him myself I wanted him dead.

I was announced as king after my father had 'mysteriously' died. I wonder who killed him..

・・・・・・

A COUPLE HOURS AFTER THE INCIDENT

・・・・・・

We finally captured everybody that didn't manage to run away from the kingdom in time.

Even though I have done so much, even though I have broken promises I've made and made people hate me, there's still something else I want..

I've been wanting to be king ever since my father had told me about the idea.

"Son, one day, maybe you could be king too. You could be just as great as me and your dream of being a star and being loved by everybody will come true! But that won't happen until I die, I'm not giving my crown up just yet.. so you can wave goodbye to that dream of yours because you'll probably die before I do."

He said to me as I was sitting in front of our mini fire place in our living room. He was sitting on the couch, drinking tea and reading the latest newspaper. I was only 5 at the time.

5, with my own father telling me that none of my dreams will come true.

I had just assumed he was in a bad mood because Saki had moved to Phoenix Wonderland by choice this year, leaving me, my father and mother stuck in Royal Kingdom.

Saki had done something I had always been wanting to do.. moving away from my parents, I didn't like them one bit.

My parents told me that Saki was just a selfish little girl who shouldn't have been born in the first place. I had lied to them by agreeing she was just selfish, as if I wasn't thinking of doing it too.

My father was right though, he will be living longer than me. He would've lived longer than me.

He said he'd make it to 100 or over due to how well his health was, he wasn't worried about being murdered.

That's why I killed him, he didn't except it at all, not by his own son, not by anyone.

"Hey, father." I called out to him politely, waving my hand a bit to get his attention.
