1 Chapter 1 The Death of the King

Drake lives happily in his father's palace as a prince. He was kind and a good son to his mother and father. He always gets along well with their soldiers and kindly welcomes people into their jurisdiction.

"Father, where are you going? Why are there so many soldiers here in the kingdom?" Drake asked.

"I am going to war son, my people needs me to save them against the other kingdom that is taking over my other territory."

"Why?"

"Because that is the king's job, to protect his believers."

Drake was amazed at what his father had said. He immediately hugged his father and told him to be careful.

His father said nothing to him. It just smiled and left. Drake couldn't help but worry. But, he believes his father can return safely. Because it is good at fighting. And a great commander.

Drake went to his room to pray for his father's safety. Suddenly his mother entered his room and joins him. You can see in her face the extreme concern for his husband.

A few hours later they received word that the king had died in the war. Her mother could not contain her grief. It ran to a room and locked it and cried out loud. Draven could not accept what was happening. He thought everything would be all right but he was wrong.

He let his mother lock herself in the room. To have it time to accept what happened. A few hours later his uncle came. It said he was very sympathetic to what happened.

It also left immediately after it spoke. Draven immediately went to his room and slept for a while. But he did not expect what happened next when he woke up. He found out that the kingdom was slowly falling apart due to the onslaught of the invaders.

He immediately went to his mother in her room. But he could not open the door. Here he called the soldier to break down the door. Because no matter what he say his mother is not answering.

When they opened the door they were surprised by what they saw. His mother was hanged on the ceiling and she was no longer alive.

Drake cried even more at what he saw. He can no longer accept what is happening. He was still young but almost all the things he should not have experienced he is now experiencing.

His mother left a letter for him before she committed suicide. It is placed on the table. Drake took it and read it.

It is written here that his uncle was the mastermind of all this, and he had to flee the palace before his uncle could catch him. But before he escape, his mother told him he had to pick up a book under his father's bed. Because it will help him in the future.

He immediately went to his father's room to get the book. He dug under his father's bed, and there was a book in it. He picked it up and read the title. The word King's System is written here.

After he read it, it suddenly came out an aura and entered his body. He was shocked by what happened. But he has no choice but to flee for now. The important thing is that he leaves the palace immediately before his uncle finds him.

He immediately escaped from the palace and walked away. He ran for hours in the woods just to get away from the kingdom. After a while his eyesight suddenly darkened due to fatigue and hunger.

---

When he woke up, he was very dizzy and very thirsty. But before he could find anything to drink, he remembered the book again.

"What is that book? Why did it suddenly turn into smoke and enter my body?" He asked to himself.

"What is that again? King's System?" As soon as he uttered it, a system window immediately appeared and startled him. "Woah!"

"What is this thing?"

[Welcome to the King's System your highness!]

He was surprised by what he read. Because it seems to know him. He is still in trouble with what is happening. Until he lost consciousness again.

---

When he woke up again he was already in the room. It looks old and is made of wood. Its roof is made of dried coconut leaves.

"You're awake. How are you feeling?" The lady who suddenly entered the room asked him.

"I'm still quite dizzy."

"Eat that first to make you feel better, and here's the water."

"You are a prince right?"

"How did you know?" Drake nervously asked her.

"It is obvious from your attire that you are a prince." While it was rolling her eyes at him.

"But don't worry, we will not report you."

"We?"

"Yes my father and I live here, so basically I'm supposed to say we." She rolled her eyes at him again.

"Do you have a disease in your eyes? Because it rolls every time you say something." Drake can't help it but laugh at her.

"Okay, you can go now." The girl said it angrily and was supposed to toss him outside but he suddenly say something.

"That was a joke! I'm sorry!"

The girl is still angry and looking at him.

"By the way thank you for saving my life. My name's is Drake. What's yours?"

"I'm Karen."
