Finding Truth

《20》

IT'S HEREEEEEEEEEE [it's here D:]

~·~·~·~

"What?!" Sanemi exclaimed as he read through the contents of the letter he got from one of his spies. He crumpled the paper, throwing it on his desk as the butler came and carefully threw it in the trash. "That damn lunatic!! What the hell is he planning!?"

A knock came from the door and Sanemi gave the go to enter.

"Your majesty." Yushiro entered the room, giving his respects to the king. "I saw... the human capital through one of my eyes."

"So is it true?" Sanemi asked as he relaxed on his chair. "Is that idiotic man actually going to invite me and the whole royal family."

"I'm afraid so."

Sanemi clicked his tongue and ordered everyone to leave the room. He sat up, going over the balcony to have some peace of mind and clear his head.

Everything was going on a bad turn. From Muzan's reason for poisoning (Y/N) to the missing body and the magic infused necklace used to keep an eye for Shiro and (Y/N).

And now a plan to invite him, the demon king, the enemy of the human kingdom, to a banquet. Something was not adding up. He doesn't know what was going on with his enemy anymore. He was gonna reach his breaking point anytime soon.

He jumped from the balcony and to the roof, making his way to the north tower, the place where he can calm down. Once he got there, he used the window to get inside.

He sat on the only chair and stared at the portrait of his beloved. The sight of her brought pain in his heart.

He was gone. He wasn't going to see her again.

'Wait... the capital...' A thought came to him. If he was going to be invited... why not use it as his opportunity. He knew that this could be a trap to kill him, he can't bring his children to the party, plus, only a few demons know of their existence.

If the royal family Muzan was talking about was his mother and siblings... he can only bring one of his siblings. He won't take his mother and younger siblings.

"Heh... if that bastard thinks he can kill me... then bring it on." He smirked, his eyes glowing red in the dim-lit room. 'I destroyed your kingdom all those years ago, what makes you think I won't do it again... plus... I have nothing to lose. I have Shiro here. I have the twins here. I have my family here.'

He stood up, flying right above the face of the portrait. He leaned his head, closing his eyes, and smiled.

'If I do die... Shiro will replace me... and if it is nothing more than an invitation, at least I can have Koichi and the others to try and find you, (Y/N). You'll meet two more of our children.'

And so, a month has passed and soon summer will end. It has been a whole month since Shiro last saw Aiko as well. She returned to her estate with her father, in their territory. So he's been alone in the palace with his siblings and the servants that he could finally see.

And it was today that the Èxi was summoned once again. But not just the Èxi, they brought their own guests with them.

"So, this is the crown prince..." A guy with light brown hair muttered as he examined Shiro. His pink eyes staring directly into Shiro's.

"It's quite a shock. Not even the public know you or the princess and prince..." Another guy with black hair and pink eyes said, doing the same as the other guy.
