Chapter 63: Worst job in the world

  Note: I have been writing some chapters of the next work and it coming out nicely, but I am stuck with the name

  Which sounds better, "I don't wanna be a hero!" or "I wanna be a villain!" ???

  Or if someone has a better name I will take it

  ----------------------------------------------------------

  60 days after the explosions - ????

  After reading the letter, Sebastian took him to a carriage, and after a few hours, he arrived at a private villa

  In any other circumstance, he would be afraid this was a kidnapping or something like that

  But precisely because of the timing, he knew it was legitimate, and instead he wished this was a kidnapping

  Meeting those two monsters was never a pleasant situation

  But there was no escape for poor little prince

  If he tried to run away, he would appear here again but only bound instead

  If it was her, the prince didn't doubt how easily she could track him down and bring him back to this villa

  And "her" was the queen of course

  With the king by her side for sure

  The prince had suspected for a while now that the two of them were alive and enjoying a nice little vacation whole he put his life on the line, and the future of the kingdom

  He didn't know why they were hiding, but he was sure he would find out soon enough

  Even if he like it or don't

  And he doubted he would like the answer

  Anyway, he decided to step out of the carriage, keep praying to the gods to be merciful, even though he was sure they wouldn't. He may be even more scared if they were merciful actually because he was sure they would put him in an even worst situation just for fun

  So he followed the "wonderful" Sebastian inside the villa, and to the backyard where he found both parents hugging each others on the same chair

  You could even see they were in their own world, enjoying each others company

  Meanwhile, the prince was stuck watching those two love birds, and feeling more and more uncomfortable each second it passed

  Until he couldn't hold it anymore, and decided to cough until they took notice of him

  And the idea was met with relative success

  They took notice of his presence, but instead of been embarrassed by been in each other's embrace, they acted like it was the most normal thing in the world, and it probably was for those two

  "Son, how are you"(King)cheerfully greeted his son

  "Hi dad, hi mom. Looks like you are enjoying each others company"(prince) said with a little sarcasm

  "Well, yes of course. It's not every day we can be alone together without having to worry about appearances. I hope you don't expect we kept appearances even in front of our own family, right?"(king) shrugged while acting as if his embrace with the love of his life was the most reasonable thing in the world

  "Ok ok, to each his own. So anyway, now that you are back, you can take the throne back, right?"(prince) hoped, really really hoped

  But part of him felt something was wrong

  Something was really really wrong

  And idea was developing at the back of his head

  But the idea was compleat insanity. It was like a joke or a perverted wish granted by a devil

  And definitely something he definitely didn't want, no matter what it was offer

  Besides, the mere idea of it was compleat insanity. He was sure it was just his paranoia developed after sh-tty situation after sh-tty situation

  "About that.... we aren't coming back"(king) said

  And prince started to panic, but he was still in denial. His worst fear were coming true little by little, but he couldn't give up yet

  "Why not!? you are young and perfectly fit to rule the Empire for 30 years more at least!"(prince) tried to hold to hope as much as he could

  "We are tired, we have been busy rebuilding the kingdom for the last 30 years. Our sudden "death" is an opportunity that won't present itself again and there is no better way to escape royal duties than death, you should know this"(king)

  The narrative has been taken without permission. Report any sightings.

  "But the kingdom needs you! we just escaped a big war, and everyone is scared by everything that happened. You can't get away from your responsibilities!"(prince) argued

  He didn't really care much about all that, he just didn't want to be stuck with the responsibilities

  "Sorry son. We won't go back, and you know you can't make us"(king)

  And prince knew he couldn't make them. He wouldn't even dare to try, and not only because they were his parent, or really really scary, but because those two had more ways to stop him from even trying than he could even imagine

  So his only hope was his original plan, stuck the job to Jorge

  He liked Jorge, since he was a really cool bro, but he liked his freedom way more

  As for Paul and Rebecca, one was missing, and the other was even scarier than his parents

  "Fine, then I guess we will leave the Empire to Jorge"(prince) said, hoping this would work

  He knew it should work in his mind. He wasTHE perfect choice. Everyone love him, he was the oldest male heir "alive", was incredibly talented, and incredibly capable

  Not choosing him was insanity and stupidity in itself

  He was sure they would agree, right?

  Why was he thinking the conversation was going the other way?

  But part of him feared the worst

  Since the moment he heard his parents were calling him, he feared something he didn't even dare it to put it into words

  Wait, no. Since the servant Sebastian called him, he feared it coming

  It was like a small voice on the back of his head, screaming at him, even though he was trying his best to shut it up with every excuse he could come up with

  Maybe when he was younger, he would be incredibly happy with even the opportunity or a remote chance to archive it

  But it had been years since he changed his mind

  Besides his hell experience this past few days, the moment he gave up, he chose to enjoy life, and to this day he never regretted his decision

  Instead of spending hours and hours in stuff he didn't enjoy, it was way better to enjoy life however you liked, and now that he had a stupid amount of money to do it, everything was perfect

  Why would he want it ruined for something as stupid as that

  But the prince was afraid

  Even though it should be impossible

  Even though there were better choices than him

  Even though it was something he didn't want, no matter what

  Even though most would consider a dream come true, he knew it was a nightmare

  Even though no one should support him for it, or want him there, or hope he would get that place

  Even though it looked like all the forces in the world were against it the moment he was born into the world

  Even though he was completely afraid to even said the word, because no matter how insane it sounded, he was afraid that the mere mention of the world would cause it to come true

  But he saw it in his father face. He even saw it in his matter face, even though he hasn't changed her expression in all this time he was here

  He could see it in their eyes like they were pity him for what they were about to say

  And he knew why, all three knew why. That's why he tried so hard to stick it to someone else, and that is why they refused to admit they were alive

  It was something horrible that only looked nice on the outside, but anyone that took even a taste of it would never want to try it again

  The prince could feel the blood draining from his face, he knew it was coming. he didn't understand why, but he knew it was coming

  "please, don't say it, please!"(prince)begged for mercy

  "Sorry son. You will be the next king"(former king)said with pity in his eyes

  "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"(prince)
