134 Lyons Weakness? (2/2)
”Fuck, fine! Your royalties are so full of yourself... Let's see here,” Lyon contemplated as he propped up his half-sleepy head with his right hand. ”Oh, right I have this one.”
With a flick of his finger, he retrieved an item from his spatial rings that made Prince Frey's eyes opened wide. Even Prince Weiss that recovered from the fall couldn't say anything for a while.
”T-th-that's!” a few knowledgable nobles recognize the item Lyon's was holding. ”A zither?!” exclaimed the nobles.
”It's not just a zither...” said Prince Frey softly under his breath, ”That's...”
His words were intercepted by Prince Weiss, ”That's 'the' zither father was looking for, the lost heirloom from the late queen.”
Hearing the first prince acknowledgment, they started to see the zither with great interest. This item may very well be the turning point for this game of chess.
As if not noticing their gaze, Lyon casually put the zither vertically to help him stand up. The creaking sound that was made from the contact of its edge against the floor sent a sting to their heart.

”Alright, I'm gonna play some music, hmm... the balcony seems nice,” said Lyon as he didn't bother to pick up the zither and just dragged it.
(Oh God please treat it with respect!) thought the onlookers as they wouldn't dare to voice it out. He just slapped the first prince and sent him flying, what chances do they have.
Prince Frey wanted to say something but his curiosity overwhelmed him while Prince Weiss was waiting for a chance. (How to take an item from someone that is drunk? Wait until he passed out) thought Prince Weiss.
Sitting on the fence of the balcony, he placed the ordinary zither on his lap. ”Alright everyone gathers around.”

Lyon furrowed his eyebrows for not having an answer. Seeing his expression the nobles including the princes quickly gathered in front of him.
”Rejoice! As you guys will be one of the first to hear this killing note.”
As his finger was about to pluck the string...

He paused. ”Wait...” he furrowed his eyebrows as he focused his gaze on the zither. ”Oh haha I was about to pluck the wrong one,” said Lyon as he moved his finger to the designated string.

*BOOM
The balcony suddenly collapsed along with half of the room into the raging sea.
