Draconic Ascendance: The King Selection Palace Residency
A series of loud, continuous knocks awoke Ares from his sleep. The commoner jerked his head and groaned as he slowly received the door. His head was throbbing from last night's ordeal. After going through that dizzying void created by the Queen, he's had a sharp headache that accompanied him the entire night.He dragged his feet to the door and opened it.There, he found a maid staring at him with huge eyes and blushing cheeks. She was pushing a trolley with his breakfast. The maid stuttered, enthralled by his dashing features."I-I brought your meals, Sir!"The male's vibrant golden eyes turned to the maid. "Thank you," he reached out to the trolley's handle and slowly pushed the cart inside his room. The maid panicked. She was supposed to carry his food inside.When the two turned around, their jaws dropped to the floor.Queen Maximillia Eurydice was sitting on Ares's bed, a dainty smile on her face while her legs were crossed. The maid turned pale, and the blush from her face faded
Draconic Ascendance: The King Selection Weighing His Rival As King
Prince Herbert, a prince of the South, did not see that the day would come when Her Radiance would ask him for a meal. Flowers bloomed in the prince's brain as he imagined the Queen and him, sharing a table in a beautiful pavilion. Just staring at each other's eyes and slowly melting into the harmonious melody of the music that played in the background. A visible blush spread from a prince's face and his cheerful, flirtatious behavior soon tottered. "Mhm?" the Queen tilted her head, waiting for his answer. But the truth was, she was merely using it as a disguise to take a glance at Ares who had been staring at them with nasty eyes on the corner of the hall. His head bobbled to hide and she smiled victoriously. "Of course," Prince Herbert took her request graciously. "Are we eating alone?"She pretended to give him an interested look and nodded. "I'd love that." The queen wrapped her arms around the prince's and off they went, leaving the unknowing commoner alone. Ares peeked in th
Draconic Ascendance: The King Selection The Mad Queen Side
Ares, Icarai, and Prince Herbert locked eyes.The prince glances at Ares, who stares at him with a narrow, conceited look. “Icarai. Who is this man?”Icarai strictly looked at Ares, letting him know that he was not allowed to speak. It’d only bring trouble if his mouth were to go haywire. Eurydice is not in the mood to make introductions better, like what happened to Prince Xavier the other day. “The Queen’s acquaintance.” “An acquaintance?” Prince Herbert faced Ares and stretched out a hand. “I am Herbert Irvan of Elyseis.” Ares shook his hand but didn’t tell him his name. The prince looked at Icarai, who only responded with an excuse.“This man here is not permitted to speak by the Queen.” “What?” Herbert was questionable. “Is he a bad man?”“No. He’s just...” Icarai leaned and whispered: “...rude. Therefore, she had requested him to keep his mouth shut whenever he was in the Palace. To avoid trouble, you see.” The prince nodded. “I see. If she intends to keep such an acquaint
Draconic Ascendance: The King Selection The Power She Wields
The dressmaker was browsing through the newspapers when he heard the bells chime. With a frustrated face, he turned to the door and yelled: “I told you! No business today! It’s Sunday, for heaven’s sake!”“My, my, what a rude way to greet your customers, Mister Sweedle,” the Queen crossed her arms as Ares closed the door behind him. The dressmaker went pale upon seeing Eurydice enter his store, even with a huge ‘closed’ sign. Eurydice tapped her feet on the wooden boards while carrying a dissatisfied face. “I didn’t know I was so... unwelcomed.”“Oh no! My bad, Your Radiance!” he got onto his knees and pressed his forehead against the floor, hoping she would forgive him. “As long as it’s you, anytime is okay.”“Oh really? As I heard earlier, you seem to be suggesting the opposite.”The dressmaker did not know what to do! He wanted the Earth to swallow him alive and all his embarrassments! Eurydice sighed. “Enough yammering,” she shrugged her shoulders. “I want you to make this per
Draconic Ascendance: The King Selection Madness
Eurydice's eyes were blazing and furious, her heart itching to dismember her assassins. They were very weak, yes, but what fouled her mood was that she couldn't get to enjoy her company with Ares because she had considered them. The hooded men scampered on the wet ground, slowly scooting their buttocks back from the approaching Queen. Eurydice's hands were dying to blast them to smithereens, leaving not a speck of dust behind. Their eyes trembled, and their joints refused to move. Dread loomed them as they realized there was no chance for sparing. They dropped their rusty knives to the ground while screaming at her to forgive them, but Eurydice was slowly becoming blinded by darkness. Her eyes were filled with malice and destruction the idea resonated with her body. She aimed her palms at one of their skulls. The man closed his eyes as sweat dropped his forehead. "I suppose you're the first to die.""Eurydice," a firm voice called. Ares grabbed her palm and aimed it at his own ches
Draconic Ascendance: The King Selection What I Think Of You
Eurydice watched as the orchid-coloured fishes swarmed around her, nibbling her silky legs. She brushed her fingers through the water as if trying to touch the moon reflected. The pond was not very shallow. Sometimes, she would jump into the waters below, trying to drown herself when no one was around. She would close her eyes and allow the darkness to consume her, but then, as always, her servants would find and pull her.One time, there was absolutely no one who came. She had expected that, finally, the time had come for her to die. She waited until she was out of breath, but it never happened. She couldn't die. Not even nature could kill her now. Even Death was doubtful about taking her. Neither heaven nor hell awaits her. She remembered her responsibilities and her little brother when she rose from the water. After that, she never attempted again.She felt like a fool. Though her demons whispered in her ear to jump and join the fishes, her body refused. Not yet, she said. 'It's
Draconic Ascendance: The King Selection The Four Princes and the Commoner
The four princes who completed the Trials happened to find each other in the Palace's vast front yards. The maids sparingly glanced at them and squealed as the dashing nobles walked under the bright sun. They were so astoundingly charming that even the married women gawked over the walking men.The princes had woken up early to stretch and jog. Some of them took this as an opportunity to go around the Palace, which they have been unable to do for the past few days. Poor royalties had to review paperwork and attend to business matters even if they were away from their countries.The castle grounds were endless; for some unknown reason- they all found themselves intersecting at one place simultaneously. Prince Yue, Prince Herbert, Prince Kael, and Prince Xavier all looked at one another with awkward faces.Prince Yue, who came all the way from the East, turned right as if he had not seen a single shadow of any of the princes. Between the four of them, Prince Yue was most passive and obs
Draconic Ascendance: The King Selection Arguments with the Queen
Tension quelled between the Queen and Ares. The commoner does not back down on the Queen's low sight of him."You really do have a sharp tongue, don't you?""You say that, but you helped me get away with it anyway. Why did you do that?" Ares asked Eurydice as they walked towards the dining hall in the long, empty corridors. Eurydice boredly swung her head to him while she curled the tips of her hair with her fingers. She shrugged her shoulders and took a deep breath before replying."You looked like you were about to burst. You seemed speechless. Is this always what happens when someone asks for your surname?" Ares lowered his head and watched his feet stroll while he followed behind her. The Queen noticed the passiveness of the commoner when they talked about him. It's as if he tries to speak less to hide his identity. Eurydice continued walking- her haunting, mighty heels echoing in the long hallway. She kept her eyes on the path ahead while ruminating about Ares's background.She
