Hello Brothers: The Prince of Twins
Chapter 57 The Throne for the New King

The dark side of the hemisphere looked beautiful in Tianna's eyes, seeing how majestic and vast the palace courtyard was as soon as he forgot the hardships that had been agonizing.

His black robe was swept away by the wind as it began to walk after Keenan, passing through the wide open gate fence without any guards. At first glance he thought the palace was empty because there was no one there, but once they entered a vampire seemed surprised by their presence.

"Who are you?" tanyakanya.

"Hi brother, how are you?" keenan said with a meaningful smile.

All this time Tianna felt he was just a slave brought in to finish the dirty work, he did not even have time to have fun with his puppets because of all the endless commands.

Now without a single drop of sweat he saw gray flying, filling every gap in which Keenan tested his strength. Until they arrive at the throne is dark, dusty because too long left empty.

"Who are you?" ask one of the elders.

It was very coincidental that the great elders were there, as if deliberately present to welcome their arrival.

Without poking the question Keenan continued to walk towards the King's seat, his long finger moving around carving the throne. Admiring how magnificent the chair even though it had reached the age of centuries, he slowly sat there to feel the sensation that had been just a wishful thinking.

"How dare you sit there!" shouted an elder who was offended.

Hhhhhhhhh

Keenan inhaled a breath of free air and exhaled slowly, then his gaze was instantly fixed on the elder who dared to speak loudly to him.

"Keenan, what are you doing?" ask Ballard who would have known Viktoria's brother.

"You...Keenans? the stupid sister of Queen Viktoria? it is ridiculous that you came as if the throne was yours" said the elder who had forgotten Keenan because no one cared about him.

"Speak politely if you still want another hundred years in office" Tianna said cynically.

"You dare to challenge me?" his yell.

Although they are fellow vampires, although the elders have lived longer but now Keenan is not a creature that can be ignored.

Aargggh....

Huh...

The room was suddenly crowded because the elder was groaning quite loudly while holding his wounded chest, he said, no one knows for sure what has happened but seeing the smile on Keenan's face they believe it was his doing.

Within a few minutes the ashes quickly spread out in all directions, marking the new lord the king would call. Without doing the ritual of the coronation selection exam was done that day, of course because Keenan had shown his worthiness as a leader.

Attended by vampires who are mostly nobles, despite the whisper of gossip among them but Keenan looks indifferent. Proudly she put on the King's robe and sat on the throne, announcing that Tianna would officially become the royal princess.

Tuk Tuk Tuk

His heels tapped on the floor with each leg moving closer to Keenan, in the King's room where his window was facing the colourless expanse of forest Keenan stood enjoying the palace breeze.

"Get it, it's time we raise the glass. Allow me to pour it out as a sign of respect and thank me for the promise you have kept" Tianna said thrusting an empty glass.

Keenan smiled and picked up the glass, letting Tianna pour a glass of cocktail with both hands slowly.

"You know, Viktoria is so loved, loved, considered valuable that she gets unnatural attention. From this day on I will prove that life is always about the strongest, in fear is the proper path so let's toast to my sister's ashes in vain" Keenan said, raising a glass.

Tianna nodded, allowing his master to enjoy a drink.

"What's your next plan?" ask Tianna.

"Fixed at the beginning, I'll find Anna" he replied.

"If...he's found out what you're gonna do?"

"Delivering my passion, twenty-four years is a short time to get to know her but too long to hold my feelings" Keenan replied as he looked at the empty glass.

"Before that let's pick up Shishio and Alabama, they also have to feel this pleasure" he said.

Hans gets word after his patience runs out, unbeknownst to Reah he goes to meet Nick to retrieve the palace floor plan he requested.

"It took me quite a long time to make this, honestly because I rarely even barely ever set foot on the right wing. It was the King's bed and the elders, essentially a place for important people so that soldiers like me had no business there" Nick said, citing his delay.

"No problem, I understand" Hans replied.

Nick began to explain every part of the palace that he needed to know, now this can be made sure the guard is quite slack because no one served as King. But that doesn't mean he can just walk in, the elders and the vampire nobles remain in the palace so that some of the soldiers guarding them must be there.

Moreover, a room where the ashes of Lord vampire and his wife who also had occupied the throne, the ashes of the two important vampires were stored well and were under the supervision of a general.

"Use this, make sure your scent is gone so that no one is aware of your presence" Nick handed over a small bottle of red liquid.

"What's this?" ask Hans.

"My blood mixed with other oils and spices, rub it on your body so that no vampire can smell the human scent of you" he explained.

Hans kept the bottle in his pocket and the map of the floor plan, after a little preparation he left. Nick kindly drove up to the forest where the shortcut to the palace was, in front of a cave he said.

"On the other side of this cave is vampire territory, you'd better use that oil now"

"I understand, thank you for your help" Hans replied.

"Be careful" Nick said one last time.

Hans started using the oil on his neck and hands, after taking a deep breath to mentally prepare he began to take steps to fulfill his promise.

The cave was dark with nothing to see even if it was his own hand, lucky he brought a batter so that there was at least a little light to illuminate the path.

Every step of his way to an unfamiliar world made his heart anxious, there was a fear that he felt the same as when in the siege of the herd of vaganences. This time he was completely on his own and it was likely that there would be no one to help him like in the forest, considering that he was suddenly hoping that the Elves would be with him.

A few moments later he finally came out of the cave, although the feeling of worry was gone but instead now he had to be more vigilant because he had set foot on the enemy ground.

Hans started to walk while watching the surroundings, moving as fast as possible so that no time was wasted. It was actually better if he came during the day where the vampires were unable to fight him under the sunlight, but it was not very useful because what he came to was a vampire palace where sunlight did not penetrate into it.

As per Nick's instructions he finally found the palace, its magnificence is almost the same as the Academy only with a different design. The courtyard was barren unlike in the Academy which had a flower garden, he also did not see any guards like Nick said.

Cowering under the tree he again looked at the map, making sure the path he was going to take was right.

"Alright, all I need to do is take out the ashes of the vampire Lord" he muttered slightly nervously.

He re-folded the map and put it in his pocket before moving to get up, slowly hiding behind the deck he stepped decisively towards the palace.

Circling the courtyard to the other side of the main door, there is a small door that is commonly used by kitchen people. The door is indeed sometimes guarded but not as tight as others, he can sneak in once there is a chance.

Passing through the kitchen that was not as crowded as he thought easily Hans could escape without knowing the vampires were mostly talking instead of working, making sure outside the empty door he moved quickly through the corridor that was dark enough.

After passing through three doors on the right he was about to turn to the left but his steps stopped when he saw two soldiers walking towards him, they were talking about the King and giving their respective comments.

It seemed that the chatter was more interesting than anything around them because Hans was able to escape unnoticed when he simply stuck a body against the wall in the dark.

Hans was quite interested in the chatter of the two vampires but there was no time for trivial things, he moved back and accelerated his pace.

After going through two turns he finally found a room that according to instructions was the Lord vampire's ash storage room, he opened a little door to make sure the room was empty.

He turned the knob slowly and went inside trying without making a sound, in which he found two coffins lying side by side.

He opened one of the crates and found a small amount of ash, while in the other the number of ashes was more with a necklace in it.

"I found it" he muttered happily.

Without delaying Hans Segeta took out a bag and put the ashes into it, it took a few minutes to put all the ashes in.

Sweat that had soaked his forehead soon he was done tying the bag, half his work was now finished then all he needed to do was go home safely.

"Done with your business?" keenan asked suddenly as Hans turned around.

As if his mouth was locked Hans could not answer anything, he was too shocked because he had not heard the sound of footsteps or felt the presence of someone.

Keenan smiled and suddenly.

Buccancy

Ah....

He did not blink an eye, Keenan continued to be in front of him but somehow he felt his hump hit hard until his consciousness slowly disappeared

The only thing he remembered was Keenan's face getting closer to him as his body collapsed to the floor.

It feels like riding a rollercoaster, keep circling until his head feels dizzy even there is a little nausea that is quite disturbing.

It took him a few minutes just to raise his head and see clearly enough, with his hands and feet tied. The two vampires in charge of guarding him were chatting until one of them stared at him.

"Oh, you're awake" said one of the vampires.

"I'll tell Your Majesty, make sure not to approach him. You know they're full of tricks" said the other to stare cynically at him.

His friend simply chuckled at the remark, then looked at Hans with a contemptuous look.

"How long have I been unconscious?" ask Hans.

"Starting trickery huh?" that vampire banter.

Hans doesn't understand why he's in such banter, but it still feels annoying

"Just a few hours" said the Vampire at last.

A few hours long, of course, the bag containing the equipment and the map of the floor plan was raipped. Surely the soul potion he brought must also have been taken, let alone find another way to stop the war now that he had no way to save his own life.

Drap Drap Drap

From the sound of the foot stamps it can be ascertained this jengukan attended by some people, from the words of the vampire who left earlier he knew some important people would see and interrogate him.

"Your Majesty" said the vampire who was keeping him slightly bowed.

Hans is stunned to see Keenan because he is a vampire who caught him, accompanied by several other vampires Keenan into the room.

"I'm sorry for your hump, I don't want any unnecessary fights" Keenan said.

That remark certainly made Keenan realize how strong, did not want to get into greater trouble Hans just kept quiet.

"Include me, I'm Keenan. You can call me His Majesty like the others or King Keenan" he said.

"What..you mean?" hans asked in surprise.

"His Majesty is the new King in the palace, he was crowned only yesterday with the consent of all the elders" said a vampire warrior.

"That's..that means you're the new king of vampires?" hans asked to be sure.

Keenan nodded with a smile, enjoying Hans' chaotic face that could not yet accept the fact. Now the vampire nation has a leader which means that only two things will happen, peace over the wishes of the new King or a growing war.

Apparently the news of the new King was only the beginning of the other news, it had not dimmed the shock in his heart of someone coming into the room.

"Your Majesty, I've researched it" said the person.

"You..guru...Shishio" call him slowly.

His eyes collide with Shishio's, long enough only to build up any questions that might not have the answers.
