Hearing the oldest ancient king's explanation, all the other ancient kings could help but sigh helplessly as they could not take them as their heir.
After countless years of waiting, they finally could find the best heir candidate only to find that someone already snatched them.
Apparently, all of these ancient kings are waiting for the best candidate heir to inherit all of their legacy and power before they could truly pass on.
Even after choosing many heir candidates, none of them managed to inherit all of the legacies they left behind or use their ancient power to their fullest capability.
It feels like the world itself deemed that their power and legacy are too strong. So, they could only wait silently for the right person to arrive and inherit their power.
Yet after finding the most excellent heir candidate, they are once again disappointed as they cannot take them as their heir.
