Everyone looked at thest candidate that entered and Nessa''s eyes narrowed as she counted them, then looked at the princess before sighing and the demon''s eyes narrowed as he looked at the one that had just entered and Nessa nced at him.


    ''He seems lost,'' She thought as she touched his hand with her elbow and he nced at her then she smiled a little.


    "Is something wrong?" She asked and he sighed.


    "No, nothing at all, you just focus on the job that you have to do," He responded and she nodded then returned her attention to the others.


    "So, Kace, you came after all, I am d you made it," The king said and the young man bowed his head.


    "Thank you and I apologize for beingte, I have to take care of a few things," He replied with a smile.


    "I understand, you can raise your head," The king said and Nios nced at him.


    "It was more important than this?" Nios asked and the guy looked at him, then smiled and Nios scoffed as Nessa looked on, wondering what was going on between them and the princess exhaled deeply, as did the king.


    "Nios," Kace said and Nios looked at him with his brows furrowing and the king nced at him.


    "Hey, do I need toe down there or something?" The king asked and they looked at him, then bowed their heads before apologizing and he looked at Nessa then she smiled at him and he nodded before turning away.


    "Now, there is a lot that needs to be discussed, who knows how much longer this old guy can go on for, don''t make things any harder than it already is and I hope that whoever gets chosen, you guys will ept it even if you may not like it and move forward, continue to support each other, can you do that?" The king asked.


    Each of them exchanged nces as the king looked at them as did the princess and they nodded, then looked at him and he tilted his head.


    "We promise," They responded and the king smiled at them and Nessa''s eyes narrowed as she looked at all of them.


    ''That was very easy, a bit too easy, is there something wrong here?'' She wondered then looked up at the ceiling while thinking and her eyes shimmered as a few things came to her mind.


    "Who are they?" Kace asked.


    "They are our guests," Ira responded and Nessa smiled at him.


    "That''s Nessa and Kuruno, he is her personal attendant, they will be staying with us for a while so I want all of you to treat them well, got it?" The king asked.


    "As you wish, your highness," Kace responded and the king nodded.


    "Now, I will introduce all of you guys to them, they are new here so be a little patient," The king said and they nodded then looked at Nessa.


    "You guys already know of Nios, he is my younger son, the next is Ira''s father, my eldest son, Reign and this is Kace, he is not from my family, he was suggested by the high council to be here," The king said and they smiled at her.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om


    Reign was tall, muscr, fair and had green eyes with short brown hair while Kace was tall, slim yet muscr and fair with slightly long ck hair and brown eyes.


    "Nice to meet you all," She said with a gentle smile on her face.


    "Nice to meet you both as well," They replied and Nessa''s brows furrowed as she thought about the council that the king mentioned and she nced at him.


    ''The high council?'' She wondered.


    "What''s the matter?" The demon asked and she looked at him and was about to ask him more about to council when the king began talking to the princess.


    "Also, there will be a few other peopleing here when it is time for the choosing, a few will be from the council since they basically want to keep an eye on us, I thought I should let you know," The king said.


    "They like to get involved in everything when it has to do with the kingdoms, they want everything to go their way at times," Nios replied and the king nodded.


    "Yeah, the council is another matter entirely, everyone wants to make sure this kingdom gets the perfect leader, but no leader is perfect, everyone should know that, so far your tests have been going well and all of you show great leadership, that I can say," The king said and they smiled at him, pleased to hear what he said.


    "But, don''t go getting a big head just by those words, there are still a lot more things that you guys have to do, choosing a leader is no easy task, nor is bing one, I have a few more things to address, as well, so please be a little patient," The king added.


    "That''s fine, we knew this wouldn''t be over in just a few minutes, we would like to talk about a few things as well, bear with us, Nessa, Kuruno," Reign said and the king smiled at them.


    "We have nothing else to do, so it''s okay, don''t worry about it," Nessa replied and he smiled at them.


    "Father, before we get more into the session matter, there is this other thing, I hear the council has been putting their foot down on a few neckstely, I hear they even have their eyes on a new nation that was formed, one with monsters, do you think they will take any action or so on, especially with how things have beentely?" Reign asked and Nessa nced at him then the king sighed.


    "That''s not how that works, they can''t just do things either," The princess responded.


    "True, they will want to know more, but as to take an action, that''s not how they work, if the nation hasn''t done anything as well, they don''t have a right to, they areplicated," The king said.


    "The king is right and they areplicated it depends most of the time, but one thing you guys should know is that you cannot mess with them easily, they don''t let go just like that if something catches their attention, these days things have been changing, their ranking officers are increasing as well, the ones that are at the top right now like, Kurson and a few others, they are strong," Kace said.


    After hearing Kurson''s name, Nessa looked at Kace with her brows furrowing and the demon nced at her as her eyes narrowed.
