“Elang Muda Empire is also the one who ended up crowning your son as the next King of Robelia.”
Kayena didn't know how to respond when Killian said that. The statement about the ‘Elang Muda Empire who became the leader of the rebel forces against King Robelia who was in power at that time' alone had made him think hard. Now, coupled with other statements that are no less astounding. He never expected that his son would ascend to the throne as the next King of Robelia, succeeding his father. However, the method used is fairly shortsighted, as well as clever.
“My son, Cassel?”
“True. Prince Cassel grew up well, then managed to become the most influential King in the history of the kingdom Robelia.”
Again, Kayena made a silence with the words of her interlocutor. So, after he decided to commit suicide in his previous life, their lives continued to run properly. What astonished Kayena the most were the major events that occurred as a result of her death, ranging from rebellion to the overthrow of the throne. Until his infant son inherited the throne of Robelia's kingdom later in life.
“Wait, how can my Son be King? Who raised her after I was gone? My dad?”
After spending the rest of the tea in a cup, Killian just resumed the story. The look on his face looked calm, even though his interlocutor had been made over thinking.
“Prince Cassel is cared for by your personal servant Kima, she is also his godmother. Prince Cassel was raised and educated directly by Prince Kaezar who was appointed as his personal guardian and master. Under the supervision of the Duke of Edinburgh who decided not to get married, because he wanted to focus on caring for his only beloved sister's relics.”
Kayena smothered her own mouth with her hands. He did not expect that his two favorite men had sacrificed their future in a previous life, for the sake of the little son he had left behind.
“Together with Grand Duke Pexley and Duke Cesare de Pexley, Prince Cassel grew up and was raised by four men who lived like corpses.”
“You mean?” confused Kayena.
“Think it, Queen. How will they live after losing the only reason they enjoy every sphere of life? You are the source of their life and happiness.”
“You mean, they live like that because of me?” guess Kayena with a choked voice.
“Not because of you, but because of destiny,” Killian replied. “Those left behind by you feel very devastated and sorry, because they feel unable to keep and understand the pain you get during your stay at the palace.”
“…”
“On the same day that you were pronounced dead in appalling conditions, two thousand special forces set out from Kyen for the capital Robelia under the command of Grand Duke Pexley. Not to mention the Duke of Edinburgh who came directly from London, followed by Duke Cesare who came directly from the battlefield.”
There was a pause that Killian took before continuing his very weighty story. Because of its weight, Kayena can feel the tightness increasing with the number of stories shared by her interlocutors.
“The last person who came to meet you who was already stiffened inside a coffin made of glass is Prince Kaezar.”
“I can't imagine how they'd expression that day,” muttered Kayena softly. Hearing the story alone, tightness in the chest was rampant. So, how could he imagine it?
“Together with his faithful white horse accompanying, Prince Kaezar who came from the border directly paid his last respects in front of your coffin without saying a word. The look on his face did not depict any expression, just like Grand Duke Pexley, Duke of Edinburgh, as well as Duke Cesare.”
“Elder of the Empire, Grand Duke Pexley, Duke of Edinburgh, France, and Duke Cesare then brought your coffin to Kyen after resisting the decree of King Robelia who wants you buried in the royal family's private funeral. As proof of his disappointment, Grand Duke Pexley did not even allow his daughter's body to be buried in the royal family's private cemetery, but was buried next to his wife's final resting place. That day, nothing was fine, except those who were happy on top of your death”
“Who?” ask Kayena to the point. In the next second, he understood the meaning of Killian's last sentence. “Actually, without you answering though, I already know it.”
“Then, I don't need to answer that part.”
“Sure,” Kayena said with a voice that started hoarse.
“You again you want to know?” With care, Killian took out a soft, square piece of cloth that was always neatly stored in his pocket. He then thrust the object towards his interlocutor, so that it is used to wipe away tears that can be dropped anytime.
“What ...what happens after my body is buried?”
“What the fuck is that!” kayena did not accept. His hands even clenched on the table. “Why did he kill innocent people?”
“The answer, because King Robelia is crazy.”
“You're kidding?”
“No, Your Grace. King Robelia is crazy. Even the Grand Concubine whom at that time he loved dearly, could not assuage the madness of King Robelia because of your death.”
Kayena fell silent. His voice was stuck in his throat. After his death, it was not only Grand Duke Pexley, Duke of Edinburgh, Duke Cesare, as well as the crazed Imperial Young Eagle, but King Robelia as well. In fact, Kayena had thought that the man would be very happy, so they might immediately hold a debauchery with their beloved lover. Who would have thought that King Robelia, who had intended to get rid of him in her previous life, would have gone mad because of his death?
“The madness did not stop there, because before Grand Duke Pexley lowered the command, two thousand special forces from Kyen surrounded every corner of the palace. No one can enter and exit freely.”
Kayena knew the father's personal strength, especially when he still held the title of Grand Duke. Over two thousand five hundred knights were under the leadership of Grand Duke Pexley. Not to mention the two thousand special forces that came from the kingdom. All that does not include the shadow army that devoted its soul and body to Grand Duke Pexley and his descendants.
“Then, what happened? There's no way my father could have just deployed an army to attack the palace. I know very well how my father.”
“Grand Duke Pexley did not attack the palace, but immediately broke off relations with the royal family. He also took full rights to the guardianship of Prince Cassel.”
“The troops were then withdrawn, under the leadership of the Young Eagle of the Empire. However, that does not mean your beloved men are silent for your tragic death. They just...wait for the right time. Let King Robelia bear the consequences of his Queen's death first, as well as make your haters feel above the clouds.”
“…”
“Your death really brought disaster to the palace. Conditions inside the palace are getting out of control, since the Queen's position is empty.”
“Omong empty,” reply Kayena. “Then what is the use of ugly duckling that always follows King Robelia?”
“Dia?” Killian paused for a moment, before throwing a glance in the other direction. “Being the consequences of his actions. The support to make her Queen has come from everywhere. However, with her condition unable to contain, the hope of becoming Queen is just a mere dream.”
“That ugly tick can't contain?”
“True.” Killian looked back at Kayena. This time his eyes seemed to be getting closer. “Your legacy, there is only bloodshed and feuds in the palace. Until finally King Robelia who was in power at that time realized if the closest people were enemies in a blanket.”
Kayena was again made silent. Every piece of information Killian gave him actually made his head work double. Until a question popped into his head.
“Killian.”
“Iya, Her Majesty The Queen. Anything you want to ask again?”
Kayena nodded softly. Then his lips threw a question that was not expected by his interlocutor. “You ..actually who was in his previous life? How can you know all that in great detail?”
