The Secret Behind the Curtain
THE SECRET BEHIND THE CURTAIN 44

"Look yes, it's just a rumor. You don't have to listen to what other people say about you. Want one world they say you're a damned fairy, a fucking carrier fairy if there's no evidence that says it all means they're just lying."

"But if it proves I'm the damned elf?" Miyuki's voice shook slightly.

King Brayen smiled softly, "although you are a fairy, I believe that you are not that damned fairy." King Brayen rubbed Miyuki's head.

"I'm sure, in the depths of your heart you deny that you are a cursed fairy." A soft smile was painted on the face of King Brayen.

"Try to believe in yourself. Tell the world he picked the wrong target like you." Connect again.

"Ray.." Miyuki's feeling was a little relieved from the words King Brayen said.

King Brayen chuckled, "there's no need to feel moved."

"You can't see the situation."

"From the tears you shed from those pretty eyes, it'll make my heart feel like it's being slashed by a sharp knife."

Basic Tombal King, inner Miyuki.

King Brayen laughed, "i can hear it."

"..."

"You want to hear my story?" King Brayen.

"What story?" Miyuki replied as she chewed her food.

"Actually, I don't want the throne of the Kingdom of Layen."

"Why?" Miyuki asked curiously.

"Because this throne actually belongs to Frayen."

"Duke Frayen Vercia?" Miyuki was a little surprised by the truth.

King Brayen nodded, "right. Frayen's late father and my uncle he was a King of the Kingdom of Layen. After his death, his wife, the Queen of the Kingdom Layen, gave up her power and handed over the power of the Crown Prince owned by Frayen and returned to Duchy, right to the residence of the Duke of Vercia.

At that time I, who was eighteen years old, had to replace the position of King of the Kingdom of Layen, because my father also died on the same day as my uncle. It does not make sense that a child who has just passed his maturity day must lead a country.

At first I refused to die - dying not to be King at a young age. But, the noble council insisted on forcing me to become the young King. I who is new to the life of the Kingdom feel alone in the midst of that restraint.

When I had already begun to make peace with the circumstances, they arranged my political marriage without my consent. My power-hungry mother agreed to it, but unfortunately my wife died after giving birth to my son, ah not my son but my wife's son with his affair."

King Brayen told me but his views still focused on his tea.

Miyuki paused for a moment before saying the words, "it must be difficult for you to live those restrained days. But you're great Ray! You can live it even if it's not easy. Maybe your childhood was full of restraints, but now I'm sure you can be this amazing person because of your process." Miyuki smiled at King Brayen.

King Brayen drank his tea and smiled behind the cup. You always surprise me, Miyuki. His inner.

A little tear came out of King Brayen, "eh you're crying?" Asked the confused Miyuki.

"Ah it turns out you can put out those words yes, thank you." King Brayen smiled.

"I was too busy with the affairs of state, even after the wedding ceremony I never met him at all, maybe that's why he cheated on me." King Brayen replied casually.

Miyuki was inexhaustible with King Brayen's reply, "so who is to blame for that incident?"

"Hahaha it's wrong who he is willing to be a spy of my Kingdom's enemies. Feel it yourself." King Brayen replied with a slight swearing.

"Then, what about the kid?" Though his son is innocent, the world is evil. Inner Miyuki.

"I plan to return the child to my wife's family after getting rid of a few more worms under the guise of the nobleman."

Miyuki just fell silent and felt relieved because King Brayen had gone through such a time of restraint. A young child who has come to understand the outside world has become a wise and sometimes annoying adult.

"Means you're now a duda dong?" Miyuki asked in a playful tone.

"Don't make fun of me. Soon I will be stripped of the status of the widower."

"Are you getting married again?" Asked Miyuki who still did not understand.

"Of course, isn't the candidate now in front of me?" Said King Brayen in a playful tone.

"Hey I don't approve of that!" Miyuki.

King Brayen laughed, "hahaha."

After breakfast together they decided to take a short walk around that backyard.

King Brayen saw a line of beautiful daisy flowers, he plucked one and slipped it in Miyuki's hair.

"It's pretty, it matches your pink hair" she said as she touched Miyuki's hair.

"Please, hahaha thank you," Miyuki smiled with faintly flushed cheeks.

"Your smile is beautiful" somehow I feel that smile can only be shown to me alone, the inner King Brayen.

"Your smile is beautiful too, huhi." Miyuki's teeth were slightly visible.

"You could have." King Brayen smiled faintly, "you know what? The first person to hear my story directly from myself is you." Reciprocity.

"What's? You've been holding everything all by yourself?" Miyuki asked in surprise.

King Brayen nodded, "right. Because as King I was taught to never show my weakness to anyone."

Miyuki patted both cheeks of King Brayen, "hup! Look, now that it's over, you can tell people you think you trust. But you also have to be careful, because the world is something that cannot be guessed is the human mind."

King Brayen smiled, his rows of teeth coming into sight, "thank you Lady.. You always surprise me." Say it while touching Miyuki's hand that is on her cheek.

The smile of King Brayen looks sincere, in the morning sunlight that makes him look shining as if he was the first time smiling like that.

But why do I feel that I won't see that smile again? even so I hope that smile will never fade from his face.
