xxvii)

My father took the Crown of the Nightshade off his head and placed it on my head, the Crown of the Nightshade was made of an extremely rare black spar, with a resentful purple color in the black, as if telling the countless grievances of the royal family for thousands of years. It is said that the red color is because it is stained with too much blood, and the ice cube does not melt for thousands of years, and it still exudes a cold air.

When the crown touched my hair, my black hair turned pure silver-white with the invasion of the cold, and this chill immediately spread to my whole body, not the cold of winter, but the feeling of being infused with spiritual power. My father said to me that this was a pact with the crown, the last barrier to defend the royal family. The crown is the symbol of the king, and it has had a certain amount of spiritual power for thousands of years, but it must be done by the previous king himself, otherwise it will break the contract and invite death. At some unknown cost, a pact is made with God, and the power of God is attached to the crown to destroy those who try to take it off, and the contract is re-concluded when the king passes the crown to the next one.

But I don't feel that I have paid any price, just a head full of silver hair? There is no shortage of silver-haired people in the underworld, what is so strange?

All the sorcerers present knelt down on one knee in support of their new king.

I saw Si Yi kneeling in front of the Dharma Protector, but I didn't see the familiar figure when I looked around, only a woman in gorgeous clothes with a lovely smile standing beside me.

Although I felt a sense of loss in my heart, but I couldn't show it in front of everyone, I smiled and took Ryozakura's hand and held it high above my head. At that moment, I completely understood what it meant to be a last resort.

"Ximu, now that you have inherited the throne, you must understand the weight of it, and don't do the stupid things of the past. Father said. The queen mother smiled with a smile of relief on her tear-stained face, and after I succeeded to the throne, she and her father lived in a remote pavilion in the palace of the night and waited for reincarnation. Those cold pavilions in the Night Hades Palace are places where I spend my solitude alone, and maybe I can only stay in the library except for the usual discussions with the priests and protectors, at least I won't visit Liang Sakura.

The ceremony didn't end until night, and I left Sakura and went to Siyi's room to ask about Tuyin's condition. What I didn't expect was that Si Yi said to me with a sad face: "Just yesterday evening, Tuyin disappeared, and I searched the entire Night Hades Palace and didn't see her. I haven't had a chance to talk to you today, but I was just going to talk to you. "Si Yi can try to stay calm, but I can't do this, this news is like a basin of ice water, I have no resistance from head to toe, and the cold sweat on my body flows down unconsciously. For a moment, I thought that Tuyin would die, and this instinct flashed and said what I feared most.

If that were the case, wouldn't my mind have been in vain?

I rushed up and grabbed Si Yi's robe, "Then why didn't you tell me earlier!" His hand grabbed my wrist and controlled my grip on the collar of the robe.

"Don't do that, Wood. I'm sad that Tuyin is gone. But as king, you must focus on the big picture. The blood of the underworld is not obtained in a day, and the bones of countless people have forged a stable underworld, even if there is one more sound. ”

"What can you say? You said it very lightly, I really saw the wrong person. My gaze froze, and Si Yi shook his head with a wry smile without explaining. Even if Si Yi wants to focus on the overall situation, he shouldn't be so cold-blooded. I turned to leave, just as the bell rang in the palace.

Bell, bell, bell... The sound beat at my heart.

I walked straight back to the library and hid in the middle of the scrolls, hoping that I could bury my pain. The lights in the library were not extinguished all night, and I fell asleep before I knew it, and woke up in the cold.

The night in the Hades Palace is cold and long, what do you want me to do without you?" I looked at the words on the book in a daze, and a smile appeared in my mind, and I muttered unconsciously.

Finally finished the exam, and it was time to update ^O^
