“Father, did you ask for my presence?”
The boy gracefully walked into the grand hall, standing in front of his father.
His father who also happened to be the king.
He hates it when the king calls for him.
"Yes, dear. As you know the Coronation Ceremonies are coming up, and for your safety, I decided for a guard to be with you."
The boy's face twitched.
"What? Father! No! I do not agree to this!"
"Careful there, you might soon be the prince and the heir, but I'm still the king."
"I'm - I'm sorry your majesty, but father I -"
"It is not your decision to make, Seong-Jin. You must be aware that our enemies are many, and I will not let them take us down. Your ceremony is a perfect opportunity for them to hurt our kingdom, so all means of Protection must be taken."
Even if he, Seong-Jin, hated this, he had no choice. He knew better than to disobey his father.
He knew better than to disobey the king.
~~~~~~~~
He stared out of the window of his chamber, watching the lively garden of their palace.
Everyone was busy. Everyone was doing something to make this - and he quotes - the most memorable Coronation Ceremony in history.
His father had prepared for this even before Seong-Jin was born.
But still, the soon to be prince didn't feel joy, or excitement.
He only felt - resentment. Like something - or maybe someone - is holding him down.
He knew this Ceremony will only put more restrictions on him. Will only tie him to this place even more.
Responsibility.
The heir Of The Lost Kingdom.
That's what they called them. The Lost Kingdom. They came from thin air. Their ancestors built what they now have on their own. Every king before him - and before his father - had only made them rise even more.
And he was expected to do the same, even if he didn't feel like this is what he wants his life to end up like.
A subtle knocking on his door brought him back to reality.
He sighed softly before composing himself and facing the door.
"Come in."
Seong-Jin watched the door of his chanber open slightly, to reveal behind it an unfamiliar figure.
But the sight - the figure that walked in made the air in his chamber shift.
The person carried an unmistakable confidence and aura with him. It's like his feet didn't even touch the ground from how gracefully he moved.
And his face - it looked like it was illegal for it to be seen by regular people - even a royal like Seong-Jin.
"Your majesty"
Seong-Jin sucked in a breath at his voice. Deep. Too deep.
"Y - you are?"
