Kurosawa Kingdom
Hidan set his foot toward the royal library, which was to the east of his residence.
His great clothes fluttered in step, while the advisor always followed him from earlier.
"Can you leave me alone Itona?" asked Hidan in an annoyed tone.
The advisor-Itona only smiled faintly, then shook his head.
"Excuse me, my majesty, I can't." replied Itona quietly.
"I need Itona's privacy and I told you how many times. Don't call me that if there's no one else around" Hidan said, staring in annoyance at his best friend.
"Sorry your majesty, I cannot, you are a king. The king deserves to be honored." replied Itona kalem.
Hidan snorted to hear it, for some reason he was very upset at Itona.
"It's up to you" said Hidan slowly.
They resumed their delayed steps, until they arrived at the place they were headed.
The guard standing at the door opened for the king.
Hidan turned to look for the whereabouts of his other friends, aisle after aisle he checked to find their whereabouts.
"We are here, your majesty" said someone.
Hidan turned his head when he heard the voice, a faint smile rising on his lips.
"You're back?" ask Hidan on the figure of his best friend.
"As you can see, we're back" replied one of them.
Now Hidan sat among them, with himself as the mediator.
"So what's the news this time." asked Hidan in a serious tone, he looked at his best friend in turn.
"It's worse than you'd imagine a friend." answered Sasori kalem, Hidan raised his eyebrows in wonder and curiosity.
"Explain more details." he said.
"The kingdoms of Nakamura, Kazahana and Ameyuri diverged from the Kurosawa Kingdom. Nakamura Temujin who is none other than the King of Nakamura kingdom ordered the foreign minister of the kingdom to spy on Kurosawa kingdom. Kazahana is also preparing a surprise to attack Kurosawa directly, under the pretext that they are ashamed when you refuse your match with Kouyuki's daughter although it is still unknown when exactly they will attack. The Ameyuri stopped cooperating with your kingdom, they also banned the arms trade that had been cooperating with the Kurosawa kingdom. The point is they joined together because they want to overthrow the government that you lead now." Sasori replied at length.
"Enemy in the blanket eh?" Said Hidan cynically.
Sasori sniffed his shoulders cute, at first glance it was like he did not care. But in his mind, how do we stop them?
"On that matchmaking, isn't it a long time ago? Why a coup now?" kei asked confusedly.
"The matter of arranged marriage is only for diversion, for that reason it is strengthening to rebel according to Kazahana. They are attacking us now because the late King Tobirama is dead, if he is alive there is no way they will rebel like this" Itona said. Everyone nodded in agreement, because Itona's answer was correct.
"But we must be grateful, at least they have not received any information from our kingdom" said Deidara who had just listened.
"Then, are there any signs of movement from them?" Ask Lin.
"There's no meaningful movement yet, it's possible that they're waiting for more complete information."
"Is that so? Is there anything else?" Hidan asked without interest, for some reason his head suddenly dizzy. The rebellion has not yet occurred.
"There" Kei replied briefly, all eyes now on him. Kei smiled slightly at the response of his best friend.
"Kingdom of Saito ak-"
"Why is Saito this hm?" Kei was annoyed that his sentence was cut off by Deidara. He stared intently at his blonde friend.
"Don't cut my words blond." said Kisame annoyed.
"As far as I'm fish!" reply Deidara
"Continue" Hidan said, ignoring the dispute made by his friend earlier.
"They did work together, but dropped each other. Saito wants to rule Shibuya, they think Shibuya is the biggest obstacle considering Shibuya also has a crown prince."
"Wait on! This is very deviated from the topic we discussed" Yamaguchi interjected, Kei mendetglare Yamaguchi because his words were cut off again.
"This is not off the mark, from the information I heard the kingdom of Saito wants to expand its territory. It can be said that King Saitama wants to overthrow several kingdoms, so that the kingdom is wider and bigger like Kurosawa, Tachibana and Takahashi" Kei said.
"The bottom line is Kei." chirps Koharu, the only woman among them.
"Saito and Shibuya will be fighting over princess Yukatta of the Tachibana kingdom, in other words Saito wants to use the kingdom of Tachibana to support his kingdom."
"What does this have to do with Shibuya?" ask Deidara confused.
"Shibuya also wants the same thing, they want to expand the territory. But it looks like Shibuya is careless, so the information leaks like this" Kei said slowly.
"To my knowledge Shibuya was the first to send a proposal letter to princess Yukatta, but unfortunately the princess has not answered it" Yamagichi said after a long silence.
"Is not the crown prince of Shibuya's work famous for his good looks and cleverness? Why hasn't Yukatta's daughter answered him?" konan asked Yamaguchi.
"Where do I know?!" yamaguchi replied confusedly.
"Again, one doesn't have to look outside of it, right? Maybe the princess wants to know inside?" kei said.
"You're right, he could be rotten inside." Sasori replied.
"Hm"
Hidan sighed softly, before a grin rose on his handsome face.
"Of course I won't let that happen. Right Itona?" Said Hidan flat.
"Yes your honor." replied Itona soberly.
"Wait, do you have a plan?" asked Sasori while raising his eyebrows.
"Yes, of course. I can't possibly let my future empress be taken by them, can I?" hidan replied calmly, but his countenance was flat.
"It doesn't look like it." said Deidara lightly.
"Figuring from that, you have to help me" Hidan told his best friend.
"Of course we will help you noble" they replied minus Lin and Itona .
"Hmm, arigato" he muttered softly, his mind raging. In his heart he asked, Do I not deserve to be King until they have revolted?
Silence, there was no more conversation after the discussion.
*****
Yuuren screeched hurriedly towards the king's residence, her Hakama fluttering in her footsteps.
In his heart he cursed, how could Sara forget to tell him to face the father?
Flashbacks
Yuuren and Sara were still enjoying the scenery in front of her, the fish pond surrounded by flowers was indeed beautiful. Until when Yuuren saw Sara who got up while squealing all of a sudden.
"God! How is this." cried Sara as she stood up.
"What's wrong?" yuuren asked softly he felt de javu.
"Your highness prince, forgive me for being this negligent" he said regretfully.
"Tell me what Sara is" Yuuren asked with an anxious, enlightened look.
"I forgot to deliver a message from the King's Majesty."
"What message?"
"The prince's majesty must go before the King's majesty, he wants to talk about something important."
"important?"
"Yes prince, once again forgive me." said Sara softly, she was really sorry.
"Well, I'll go now, baby." Yuuren immediately rushed towards her father's residence, leaving Sara who was still late in her regret.
Flashback off
Yuuren had arrived at his father's residence, telling the guards to convey his arrival to the King.
"The prince's majesty came to visit" the bodyguard said. After that Yuuren went straight inside.
"Her Majesty the King." greet Yuuren as he bowed after entering his father's residence.
"Why did you just come now? You know, I was waiting for you?" raido asked quietly, his eyes still focused on the royal document.
"I'm sorry, Sara forgot to tell" Yuuren replied softly.
Raido smashed his documents on the table, the king looking at his daughter. There was a sense of doubt in the chest, but he had to convey.
"Yukari." call her slow. Yuuren or Yukari looked up at her father, she smiled sweetly.
"Hi"
"Do you know about Yukatta's matchmaking?" ask Raido carefully.
"Hi, Yukatta told me this morning" Yukari replied calmly.
"so"
"Your highness"
"Yes?"
"I hope your Majesty is not favoritism."
"What do you mean?"
"Yukatta also wants the affection of your noble one, he thinks that his highness thinks only of me. He wanted to cry, he thought because I am a man you love me more" Yukari said, holding back her tears.
Raido pensively upon hearing Yukari's expression, he does not know his other daughter is demanding his rights. All this time he tried to be fair to his two daughters. But that's not enough either.
"I've always tried to be fair to you, but still not enough?"
"I think Yukatta just misunderstood, you didn't tell him right?" ask Yukari slowly.
"Whatever this is a royal secret, a secret should not be revealed at all. It's time to unlock that secret. Be patient, Tou-san is sure you can get through all this. Remember, Tou-san and Kaa-san are always by your side" Raido said softly.
Yukari pondered, patiently? Can I do it? Will I be strong in handling this?
