The Key of Destiny
King Frey Walter

Under the bright shining sun, Ace and the white-haired young man were now sitting under a sacred tree, Ace still feeling confused about his current existence. Ace could not say anything as he looked at the face of the young man with him, Ace was like looking at the figure of his father who he usually saw in paintings on the walls of the palace. Ace was busy comparing the young man's face to the painting of his father's face in the palace.

"Hmm, it's very similar." Ace murmured inwardly. "But where possible, my father is dead." he hesitated.

"But where am I this time? I know nothing at all" Ace hesitated and did not get any guidance. Ace just kept silent on looking at the young man's face.

"Is something wrong, son?" ask the young man who is uncomfortable because he continues to be noticed by Ace.

Ace only shook his head with a small smile.

"Are you tired of waiting like this??" ask the young man again.

"Waiting?" Ace did not even know that he and the young man were sitting under a tree waiting for something.

Then before long, the young man pointed to a beautiful girl in the distance and said, "That she's come, usually she's never late like this, surely she's cooking something delicious,"

"Oh yes, she is my wife, we just got married a few weeks ago," the young man smiled happily as if he had obtained a diamond, his face was radiant.

Ace could only smile a little.

Ace watched the young man's wife from a distance and realized something, "That, how do you look like a mother??" Ace muttered back in his heart.

After a few seconds, the young man's wife sat down next to her husband and put down her food basket and said, "I'm sorry baby, I'm a little late, I was worried that you'd get bored here, but I don't think so because you're with this handsome little boy," then the woman looks at Ace's face.

Ace's staring, "BuSEeet!! This is your mother!!!!" Ace was shocked half-lives after seeing the woman's face at such a close distance.

"Mother??" said the young man in a cynical tone.

The young man looked at Ace with a cynical look as well. Ace could only close his mouth and turn his face away and whistle avoiding that unpleasant moment.

"Dear it, maybe he just misses his mother, no problem anyway, right? Who knows, our son will grow up like him, will definitely be very handsome," said the young man's wife trying to cool the atmosphere.

The young man immediately smiled, "Right as well! He would definitely be a handsome and beautiful child like his father and mother!!" his mood immediately changed bluntly and he then ate the food brought by his wife.

Ace could only be speechless seeing the young man eating his food. Then without hesitation Ace asked, "Are you the King and Queen of GloryStone??" ace's question was enough to make the young man stop his mouth from chewing.

"There are so many people who have asked us that question, even though we don't look like Kings and Queens in general but we are the King and Queen who are leading GloryStone at this time," said the wife in a soft tone.

"We try our best" the young man continued, staring glumly at the ground.

Ace's question so pierced the hearts of both of them, even a little boy who should not know about the kingdom instead asked a question as if Ace was doubtful of their leadership.

Ace immediately felt bad and tried to divert the conversation, "You've tried your best! Ahaha... By the way, whose name are you??".

"You don't know us?" ask the confused wife.

"It's just natural that he doesn't know, he looks like a stranger, I feel another force in him, and the evidence this morning I saw him coming out of the cage" the young man replied.

Ace just listened and tried to hold back his patience, "For a long time also nih nih people," Ace's inner.

"Without much ado introduce ourselves. I'm King GloryStone Frey Walter! And she is my dear wife Queen Cordellia Ace!!" replied the young man with a frenzy like a wedding MC.

"What's up, son?" the Queen asked puzzledly and was a little afraid of Ace's face.

"If she is a mother, then this person next to her is ... Wh-a-a-my father??!!" call Ace in the heart.

"If they are my parents, then what is in the womb of the mother is..."

"ME??!!!!" keep Ace in your heart.

Ace was surprised to realize this. Ace could not hold back his emotions and immediately shed tears. Finally he could see his father's face directly, usually he could only stare at the painting of his father's face in the palace burdened by heavy longing.

King Frey and Queen Cordellia were instantly flustered as Ace shed a tear all of a sudden. "Why are you, son??" the king asked, chewing his food.

Ace immediately covered his face with both hands. Ace then stood up and then left.

"Who? Where are you going, son!!? Hey!!" the Queen shouted to Ace who ran away.

"I didn't think I was next to him but I didn't notice it right away, it turned out that the funny and kind person was my own father" Ace ran away in a fit of annoyance.

"For a long time I never wanted to tell you about my father. Mom just kept her mouth shut when I asked her that, mother kind of instilled hatred in my father but they look so full of taste!!" Ace grew increasingly upset and said all his uneg-uneg inwardly.

Ace ran aimlessly, he continued to run until nightfall, at last Ace stopped by the small riverbank, and sat down to rest his weary body.

Then Ace lay down and looked up at the star-filled sky. "Why did I run? I should be content to look at my own father's face, and I don't know when I'm here" he said.

Then a head with long hair blocked his gaze to stare at the beautiful sky.

"It turns out you're here, son, you just ran away,"

Ace was surprised and walked away. "Am I being too creepy until you have to dodge like that??".

Ace watched the man's body from bottom to top, then he realized that the man was King Frey aka his own father.

"D-dad?"

"Huh dad??? What the hell are you doing??" King Frey felt that Ace was not a sane child. "I don't even know your name at all, son, next time if you want, you can come help me work tomorrow hehehe,"

Ace remained silent, and tried to understand the situation, why a King should work to make ends meet.

"You're just gonna keep quiet and say nothing, are we offending you??" continue the King while folding his hands on his chest.

Ace shook his head and said, "I'm just confused as to why the King and Queen here could care so much about my circumstances. Even my mother never told me anything about my father, even though my father had died since I was born" Ace replied gloomily.

King Frey laughed, "Hey son, you don't have to be sad, your father has calmed down there, because your father has made the right decision to save you and your mother,"

Ace was dumbfounded, and did not understand what King Frey said. "Yet your father is always by your side at all times" he continued.

Then King Frey stroked Ace's head and brought his lips closer to Ace's ear while whispering, "Ace, my son, I love you, I love you,"
