"(f/n)?" King Hiryuu's voice snaps you out of your daze. You look up to the king before bowing.

"Y-Yes?" You ask, bowing. He merely smiles before setting a hand on your head. King Hiryuu then ruffles your hair.

"Good morning." He coos. You stare at him blankly, blinking.

"G-Good morning, your highness.." You mumble. The king looks at you disapprovingly.

"Now don't say that. You can drop the formalities you know?" He smiles once again.

You nod your head once more.

Externally, you play your innocent role of servant. For some odd reason, you were accepted as King Hiryuu's personal servant. It was hard to get the position, but it's for the sake of your job.

Your job of assassination, that is.

And today is the day. Today is the day you will kill him.

Your client has constantly been on your tail, asking when you'll take the time to strike. It's not that easy.

You see, King Hiryuu is constantly surrounded by the four dragons. With them around you can never do your job. Their eyesight is like that of a hawk, and their reflexes are lightning fast.

"King Hiryuu, you have another meeting with the-"

"Let's spend some time together instead, shall we?" The king asks. You close the scroll before looking up.

"Your highness,"

"The formalities are too much."

You flush with both embarrassment and anger. "Yes, King Hiryuu." He hums at your words and you continue on.

"I hardly think such time spent together will benefit the kingdom." You state. King Hiryuu looks at you thoughtfully before beckoning you closer.

You do, and he takes the chance to whisper into your ear. "If it is a dying wish, will you accept my request?" He asks.

You stare at the king wide eyed. He merely smiles but the very smile puts you through shock.

'Has he found out my plan?' You wonder, hand slowly gliding to your hidden sword.

King Hiryuu begins to shake his hands about, looking albeit paniced. "Oh dear, I hope you don't hurt me now. I just want to spend some time together." He says easily.

You pause for a moment, "Why?" You question.

King Hiryuu reaches for your face and you immediately swipe it with your knife. Blood splatters but that doesn't seem to faze him. He cups your cheek, blood dripping.

"Through the work and service you've provided, I can't say I haven't fallen in love with you." He says.

You stare into the king's eyes, searching for any hints of a lie or fraud. He holds no such emotion. Just pure love.

And it frightens you.

"H-How? How could you love someone like me?" You struggle to say. King Hiryuu shrugs, letting go of your cheek.

"How could I not?"

You fall into his arms. All of your strength has evaporated into thin air. King Hiryuu catches you with ease.

"You know I must die now..." You mumble into his clothes.

"If killing me is how you can live, then please do. The life of a human is precious, I don't want to throw one away."

"Is that why you want to spend a whole day with me?" You ask. He nods.

You tremble, raising the blade up between the two of you.

"I'm sorry, my king, but I can't do such a thing." You breath in shuddery breaths. King Hiryuu closes his eyes, accepting his death wholeheartedly.

"I wouldn't be able to part with you if I do so..." You whisper.

You plunge your blade.

King Hiryuu doesn't feel a thing, his eyes still being closed.

'Is this death? If so, it's so peaceful...'

That isn't so. He's far from the truth. You've killed yourself. Right in his arms.

"(f/n)?" King Hiryuu realizes too late. He shakes your limp body. "(f/n)?!"

Guards rush into the room. The four dragons run up to the heartbroken king. They see your body in his arms, blood coating both you and King Hiryuu.

"Y-Your majesty?" Zeno asks.

King Hiryuu looks up at the four dragons, tears falling. He touches them, mind confused.

"I-" He struggles for words. "I- I loved them.."
