Uranium: The Jinxed Prince
The Jinxed Prince 6's

Starting from various small countries combined into one, the Lionheart Kingdom has a variety of popular myths from generation to generation. Some are timeless, but many more still survive, told by word of mouth and believed, one of them is the Legend of the Flower Un.

Once upon a time, there was an angel who came down to earth just to walk. It is said that he was known as a very beautiful angel in Heaven. Golden eyeballs are framed by pliable eyelashes. Her lips are as charming as red wine. When the pair of white feathery wings on his back are stretched out, that is the sign of the Message Bearer delivering His revelation.

Arella, the angel of the Messengers from Heaven.

While exploring one of the worlds created by the Almighty, Arella accidentally meets a wounded human on a mountain. Because of his pity, he healed the man using his power. "But in return, tell me your life story" said the angel after he had finished treating the man.

After thinking for a long time, the man nodded, then began to tell about his miserable life. He is a 45-year-old man. He was orphaned as a child and lived in his village. No one in the village really cares about him. They just make sure he eats and lives, not caring too much even though the food he eats is not worth the food though.

Entering adolescence, he ventured to explore the outside world. He dwelt from one village to another, from one city to another, and from one kingdom to another, until one day he met a very beautiful woman. Long story short they married, had children and grandchildren were beautiful and handsome.

For a moment, Arella could hear the man sighing violently.

But the happiness of the man did not last long. This incident had only happened that day, a while before he met Arella. An unknown animal attacks the small town where they live. The man described him as a big and scary animal. He said the animal had a body longer than the ocean, larger than a mountain, and the darkness in its eyes was more dense than the stormy night. Each breath of the animal gives off a very hot blue flame, which can burn the entire city where it lives in one breath. His entire family was burned alive, leaving himself a survivor.

Arella who was concerned about the life story of the man sighed. The angel then developed his white furry wings and flew away. He prayed in the sky, asking for blessings to the Almighty, then within seconds a golden ray filled the mountain where they were.

As the man opened his eyes, thousands of flowers filled the ground as far as the eye could see. Flowers with 10 red petals and golden-colored stalks.

"Hey, man, listen to me. The Almighty has heard your suffering and grievances. As a fruit of your patience throughout life, eat one stalk of these flowers, then your life will be blessed with infinite luck" said Arella.

But instead of accepting, the man shook his head, "Don't, I don't deserve it. Let this fortune be possessed by those who deserve it."

Hearing the man's words, Arella prayed again, then snorted. "The Almighty has heard your wish. If that's what you want, let it be." In order to appreciate the man's decision, with her strength Arella created an enormous pond. He then moved the flowers to the bottom of the pool.

Later, people knew the mountain where Arella and the man met as Mount Astinapura, and the flowers as a flower un, the flower bringers infinite good luck for who eats it.

***

The legend of Bunga Un is one of the legends that have existed since the Lionheart Kingdom was established, precisely since the first dynasty, the Lanthanum Dynasty ruled. The greedy king certainly did not stay silent when the news of the 'sakti flowers' reached his ears. Various resources were deployed to find the existence of flowers and Mount Astinapura, although its existence itself is still unclear. This flower search effort was still continued by the next kings even though the greedy king had died.

But instead of finding the existence of flowers in the legend, it sparked a rebellion because selfishly drained resources caused prolonged suffering for the people. Eventually, the rebellion occupied the Cerium Dynasty as the new ruler.

Another in the mouth another in the heart. Although the first king of the dynasty said it would bring prosperity to this kingdom, he was no different from the greedy kings of the Lanthanum Dynasty. Dissatisfaction is running rampant, rebellion after rebellion is back. Power again passed to the Praseodymium Dynasty. But just the same, the desire of the reigning kings to have unlimited luck never disappeared.

"This cannot be allowed, remove the Praseodymium Dynasty from the throne!"

Rebellion ensued again, accompanied by a transfer of power. Dynasties Neodymium, Promethium, Samarium, Eropium, Gadolinium, Terbium, Dysprosium, Holmium, Erbium, Thulium, Ytterbium, to Lutetium. But there is nothing different, the ambition to seek flowers never goes out, no matter the voice of the people who call for their suffering under the selfishness and pressure of the king.

Only later since the first king of the Actinium Dynasty came to power did the belief in the existence of the flower begin to fade due to the imperious nature of the king and only believed in himself. "O my beloved people, listen to the words of your King. Don't believe too much in myths that don't even look like mountains or flowers. Remember, luck does not exist, there are only abilities and destinies that have been outlined from birth!" said the first king of Arctinium.

Power passed to the Thorium Dynasty. Wise kings were born in this era. Human rights, justice, and equality are called upon in every corner of the kingdom. But like a cloud that tries to cover the sunlight, the source of life of all creatures on earth, the Thorium era can be said to be the era of Lionheart glory, but at the same time be the shortest era. Their rule did not last long, only 3 generations, before being overthrown by the Protactinium Dynasty, and now in the hands of the Uranium Dynasty.

But in the slightest it never occurred in the mind of the silver-haired young man that one day he would be faced with a complicated situation because of the myth. Moreover, the myth about the flower itself has been almost unheard of since the rule of the Actinium— Dynasty except in certain areas where the myth is still very thick believed— and Shawn had heard it because it was told Eloise first, then, although his memory of the legend was already somewhat vague.

"With all due respect," Brianna placed a hand on the chest along with the tip of her slightly raised robe, "if Her Majesty can find a flower in the legend, then my sister, is, Young Marquess Isaac Plutonium promises to somehow give His Majesty a decent life in Lionheart.

"But my brother also said, if Your Majesty fails to find the flower within 5 years, then never expect to set foot on this land again. If Your Majesty breaks it, be prepared to feel His Majesty's neck and body separate."

The night wind blows. Hearing the words accompanied by a wide smile made Shawn's hair bristled. The young man gulped his saliva, soaking the throat that was instantly dry. His head feels empty. He knew he had to say something, but Brianna's words just now made him unable to think.

Once again a pair of sky-blue beads that were now shading observed the delicate face of the girl before him. Clearly, Brianna's words were blurting out confidently, as if there were absolutely no lies there.

Shawn laughed sinisterly, his heartbeat increasing twice as fast. "It looks like you didn't really run away from home huh, Miss Plutonium."

“Your Majesty is right, this time I did not run away from home,” Brianna replied without a hint of hesitation in his words. “But this time I officially came to His Majesty on the orders given by my brother, the very Young Marquess of Plutonium His Highness the Prince admired.”

It is true, for Shawn, Isaac was the one who had saved him from a great calamity. Moreover, the Marquess Plutonium's son was so perfect in all aspects. Beautiful face, good personality, and superior ability, plus he has ‘saved’ Shawn. There was no reason for the prince not to bother Isaac.

But because of his admiration, Shawn knew more than that an Isaac Plutonium would never make such a promise.

Shawn sighed after being silent for a while. The night wind again caressed the skin. He stared at the green eyeballs that reflected him deeply. “If you come by order of Young Marquess, then you also come along ‘dia’?” instantly Shawn's tone changed, becoming deeper and implying resentment and hatred.

Brianna's reflexes are shaking. “Of course not. Doesn't His Majesty also know that the person I hate the most in this world is ‘dia’? Where might I want to travel far with someone like that,” kilah Brianna. Although he knows lying is not true, but for now it is the best path—.

Lies, inner Shawn. In this world, with all the painful experiences Shawn had since childhood, nothing could escape that pair of jet-blue eyeballs. Nothing, not even Brianna's lies. The girl did behave as usual, but her smile that too often was very unusual—because Brianna would often smile if she wanted to cover something.

Helaan accompanied by white dew slid from Shawn's lips. He glanced around, ascertaining whether 'he' aka Harry Lawrencium followed them, then looked back at the girl before him. "Then, does this have anything to do with the First Prince?"

For 5 years living in this forest and every time Brianna came to him, Shawn never once dismissed the suspicion that the girl was moving on Archie's orders. The red-haired and brown-eyed prince was very beautiful, but at the same time hated him the most among the other half-brothers.

But for the sake of the relationship formed during 5 years in the Plutonium residence, Shawn always forced himself to try as hard as possible to get rid of the suspicion.

"If it's the First Prince, I can't avoid it" Brianna said, "because without him, it's hard to convince my brother to let me come here."

"So..," Shawn murmured softly.

With the fact that this girl had come with the First Prince's permission and it had only been a few days since he had been re-invaded by dozens of hitmen, only one was in Shawn's mind at the moment: Then, then, did you have anything to do with the hit man who attacked me a few days ago, Brianna Plutonium?
