After Cale finished talking with the now called 'heroes of the plaza incident' he has gotten himself a major headache.

It seems that he was now known as the 'silver shield hero' by the people.

He also found out that his parents. No. His whole family is currently in the capital right now.

They acted to see him but were sent back by Zed Crossman, the king. He massage his temples to calm his headache.

Ron was smiling his usual smile while Choi Han was visibly frowning.

Beacrox was glaring at him but Cale could see the envy hidden behind those eyes.

Rosalyn was looking at his lap. Cale was sure she was sensing Raon.

While Lock was looking at the two kittens that were sleeping on the pillows in interest.

Cale organises everything he needs to do in his mind. He sighs loudly making everyone's attention focus on him but he didn't care about it.

For the others it was different as he sighs. They could see his face looked tired and void of life.

This worries many people in the room. They could tell he was very tired. And the sigh he just did also felt heavy.

As if he was burdening the world's weight on his shoulders. They felt pity.

And just then a knock came from the door as Ron went to open it only to see Zed Crossman standing there.

"May I come in?" Zed asked toward Cale. It was weird for a king to ask for permission to come in but they didn't say anything and waited for Cale to say something,

"Ah yes your majesty." Cale nodded at him as Ron opened the door wide for the king to enter.

After the king enters, Ron turns to the others and motions them to get out. Rosalyn, being the only royal or noble, notices this and rushes the others to get out.

After they all got out Ron looked toward Cale and bowed. Cale just gave him a nod.

Ron knew Cale was telling him to guard the door so he just nodded back and closed the door.

"Raon." After they were all gone Cale called out to Raon. Raon immediately knew what to do and casted a soundproof barrier.

"Your majesty." Cale calls out to the adult inky to finch after a second. "My poor nephew."

The king has a pitiful gaze. "Wha-" Cale didn't get to finish his sentence as he was pulled into a hug by the older one.

"My poor nephew. How hard must it have been for you? Please bear with this uncle of yours."

He said in a dramatic way making Cale speechless. Cale was suddenly reminded of his father.

Who would always be so dramatic like this when something happens. Zed let Cale go who was looking at him as if he had gone crazy.

Zed let out a chuckle at this. "Such a disrespectful gaze my dear Cale." Cale suddenly had a thought in his mind.

'Those two really are father and son.' Alberu would also call his gaze disrespectful and just laugh.

Cale can't understand those crazy people. "Why are you here?" Cale asked to get right to business as he didnt want to deal with Zed.

He has enough dealing with Choi Han and the others thank you very much. He would rather not get another headache.

"Getting right to business. You're still the same." The king just sighs. Cale is just merely humming.

"I heard that the terrorists were from Arm." Cale nodded this. "Cale you know what this means?"

Zed frowned for the first time since coming here. Cale nodded. "I am planning to give him a visit to ask him if he has gone crazy."

Cale just replied in a nonchalantly way. "I won't allow it." "And I won't listen."

Cale just replies to Zed knowing how the other might retort. This happened so many times that Cale was prepared.

Whenever he was about to work for real, these father and son duo would stop him.

But they will always lose and Cale will always end up doing what he wants one way or another.

"I'll make you Prime Minister." "I will run away." Cale just calmly replied. Seriously, how many times has this happened?

Cale was getting tired. "Cale-" "Uncle you know it won't work." Cale cut him off.

Zed couldn't say anything back and just sigh. "Take Alberu with you." "I can't."

Cale immediately replied. "You can." The king just smiled. Cale has a bad feeling.

And his feelings were never wrong. So he got worried. "Uncle, what are you planning?"

Zed just smiled and patted his head. "Just rest that little brain of yours. Let Uncle take care of everything."

Now Cale was even more terrified. He felt as if Ron just pushed him into a lake full of lemonade.
