Chapter 177 - 169 (2/2)

The third prince decided to shut up.

The second princess with shining eyes had been looking back and forth between her royal father and ninth brother and she couldn't help but to gasped with their similarities. Even though the Supreme Ruler had hidden his face under his mask, his fine features, hair color and eyes were to resembling with the silver haired young man standing in front of them.

The second princess had a spoiled and straightforward attitude that once her mind has decided, her mouth couldn't be stopped.

”Ninth Brother, you're so exquisite! If I did not know any better, I would think that royal father made a mini version of himself!”

Chun: ….

Royal siblings: ….

Supreme Ruler: …..

The aloof almighty king chuckled when he heard this from the second princess. He had been used to her non-filtered mouth and he was very lenient to it. Though he couldn't deny that his youngest son looked more like his younger self when he was still at his most rebellious times.

The dark chuckle of their royal father stiffened the princes and princesses while they held their breaths. The one who was the mastermind of it - second princess- trembled a bit but she controlled herself not to be intimidated with their royal father's eccentricity.

'This was normal. All normal.' They chanted on their minds.

Chun sensed the strange atmosphere while the Supreme Ruler continued to laugh. If he was not in mask, surely they would see that the almighty king was in tears due to laughter.

”Alright.… You're all dismissed. Hunan, come here.”

Some would smile in greetings or nod at Chun with friendliness while others seemed to raised their brows to her but what Chun had caught sight was they were somewhat had hidden pitiful looks at her.

The passing second prince whispered, ”It's not what it looks.”

Even the eighth prince as well, ”Don't be intimidated. Royal father is just---”

”Hurry! Go out!” The laughing Supreme Ruler a while ago was now shouting at them impatience which they immediately obliged. The first prince was the last one to go out as he personally closed the door, not forgetting to nod at the silver haired youth.

Chun was now full of doubts if she was seeing it right. 'This seemed to be strange.'

”Hunan--- Chun.”

The silver haired young man turned around to the gentle tone of the Supreme Ruler which Chun saw that he was now playing with his mask on his hand while smiling at the other.

Although his smile seemed to be unaccustomed in his face. The Supreme Ruler was rare to smile nor laugh which shown a while ago that his supposed to be genial chuckle seemed to be sinister to those people that didn't know better but the princes and princesses were already used to their royal father's quirks.

He was an eccentric ruler so his ways were strange and odd for the others, and they would misunderstand it if they weren't familiar with him which was why the people of Terapika was afraid with this all-powerful faceless ruler. They never understand him but they somewhat grateful with His Majesty as he was the only ruler that could able to maintain peace between dividing nations without shedding blood. Yet that was something to be feared because the more unknown and illogical it was, the more unexpected it would be.

Majority of humans were afraid of the unknown which was why they had this kind of fear with the Supreme Ruler, it was only revealed that he wielded to types of Charms but its severity wasn't revealed and even His Majesty's other capabilities.

But Chun somehow could see that this Supreme Ruler was one of a kind.

”Chun, come here,” he said with warmth in his eyes.
