After explaining what had happened, Balx, Thev and Chentya finally fully believed that the one before them was the real emperor.
" Your Majesty, I'm really sorry. I really didn't think that what was buried was just a copy." Thev is sorry
" I'm also really sorry, Your Grace." Chentya.
" Please punish me as you please, your majesty, I am entitled to receive a punishment of any weight from your majesty." Balx said while prostrating to the emperor. He was truly ashamed of having treated the emperor unfavorably.
" What do you mean, you don't have to apologize. It's only natural that you don't believe it after you witnessed the tragedy that night, seeing myself being stabbed and dying before your own eyes is really hard for you isn't it?"
" Of course, your majesty is everything to me. If you didn't pick me up at that time I wouldn't have been able to have a stocky body like this and become one of the SSS+ title holders, either, without mercy, your majesty may have rotted in that slum."
" Oh yeah, I remember what happened back then. I ran away from the palace and ended up lost in a slum. At that time I was very scared because there were some adults who approached me with bad intentions."
• " Hey, look at him. He's the son of a nobleman, if we hold him hostage we can get a very large ransom." Said a man with a fat stomach who was holding a small piece of wood that he used to clean between his teeth.
" Why is there a son of a goddamn nobleman here, uh look at that pin on his shirt." Said another man who had thin body and irregular curly hair.
" You're right, he's the emperor's son. Looks like we have a big prey, hahahahahaha!" The fat man then glanced at his friend, the three of them slowly approaching towards the little boy.
" I was so scared back then, and in the end you showed up all of a sudden in front of me, you held the three of them alone even though you knew that things were impossible for you."
• " Why is he so stubborn, hey do you know who he is?" Ask the fat guy.
" No, I don't care who he is. The important thing is that you never dare to hurt him!" Then he bit the fat man's hand.
" Argh, what the fuck are you, let go, let go of my hand!"
The fat man held onto his sick left hand, the marks were quite clear and there were even slight patches of blood.
" Fucking son of a bitch!"
" Just let him be the boss, let's hide this emperor's son first, so that we can reap a great profit." Said the skinny guy.
" Yes boss, we can take care of it next time." Say the one guy.
" Okay, let's quickly catch the boy before he runs away!"
After the fat man ordered his two comrades, the two of them immediately approached the little boy slowly.
After they were very close, the trembling little boy tried to run, but when he was just about to stand up, his hand was already held by a large enough finger, he's been caught by a delinquent who's there.
" Hahahaha, we can finally get rich. This way I don't have to bother with hunger when there's no food."
" Hey, let her go!" Someone pulled the back of the skinny guy's shirt.
" Hey boy, are you tired of living, step aside!" The skinny man shook his hands and the little boy who was pulling the skinny man's shirt bounced, as a result the skinny man's shirt was torn.
" Fuck, you useless little boy. How dare you ruin my clothes one by one, huh?"
" Once, we can buy it again later." Said the other man.
