Good food, clean clothes, great appearance, and overwhelming wealth many people wished to have. God has given me all of those blessings the moment I was born in this world. I was born a prince. Respected by everyone. I know how special I am. I was special and most of the people around me were not.
That arrogance has eaten my heart and soul.
I never imagined a time when I could lose everything that could come. The idea alone never grazed my mind. The time my father, the king, will die. My brothers and sisters will fall on the battlefield. The time when nothing was left but myself. The demon king took over the whole kingdom with the aristocrats.
I was banished and my little sister was held captive. I can’t do anything. Even for the one I loved, my wife. I can’t do anything. I watched her pleasure someone else's body. My sister might end up the same. I’m still unable to stand up for them.
The people around me are correct for the nickname they gave to me.
