Thank you, everyone, for adding this to your favorites, but I really can't take all the unrestrained malice anymore. I'm sorry, I'm abandoning this account.
[Main story blurb]
1.
Because of a promise made in his youth, the knight Nalin was willing to bear the name of traitor, be rejected by everyone, and become the fated enemy of the person he loved most.
After returning to the empire, he stopped at nothing. He killed soldiers, captured lords, and persecuted loyal officials, stepping over countless corpses to reach the highest position. From a knight who wielded a sword to uphold justice, he became the empire's most reviled villain.
He did all of this only to offer his prince the finest fireworks of the present day.
In the end, he really did place the crown on the prince's head with his own hands, smiling tenderly just as he had ten years ago, in the carefree days of their youth. "King of the vampires, this is my coronation gift to you."
They both understood what those words meant: Use the power you've gained, and do whatever it takes to kill me.
As the new king's first act, the blood of this notorious villain would make the finest fireworks.
