At that moment, having read the urgent message about the black summon from the king, Damien's mind immediately began processing the serious implications and potential dangers of such an unprecedented command being issued specifically for him.He knew fully well what the black summon literally commanded and represented - it was the most serious royal decree that could be issued in their kingdom, one that carried the weight of absolute authority and demanded immediate compliance from anyone who received it, regardless of their status or position.And he understood completely that this was something that under normal royal protocol he wouldn't be able to literally say no to or refuse without facing severe consequences, since defying a black summon was traditionally considered an act of open rebellion against the crown itself.But then again, he also knew with absolute certainty based on his experience and political awareness that he actually could literally refuse to comply with the summ

At that moment, upon hearing what Sophia's grandfather had just said about his sincere apology and his regret for the way he had previously treated him with disrespect and betrayal, Damien nodded his head with the gracious gesture of someone who understood that holding grudges served no productive purpose in complex situations.“No problem at all,” Damien said with calm magnanimity and genuine forgiveness in his voice. “I honestly don't harbor any grudges or resentment against you for what happened before, because I understand that people sometimes make decisions based on incomplete information or family pressures.”His tone carried both maturity and strategic wisdom as he continued. “I'm not angry about anything that occurred in the past, and I believe that we can move forward from here with mutual respect and understanding, so all is well between us as far as I'm concerned.”Damien's expression showed both diplomatic grace and the confidence of someone who could afford to be gener

When Damien and Sophia finally arrived at the impressive gates of Sophia's grandfather's estate after their journey from the city, the car rolled to a gentle stop in the circular driveway, and Sophia immediately turned toward Damien with genuine concern written across her face.“Damien, you need to be extremely careful while you're staying here at my grandfather's house,” she said with worry evident in her voice and expression. “I honestly don't know if I should be arranging to check up on you regularly from time to time throughout your stay, just so that I can be rest assured that you're okay and nothing dangerous has happened.”Her tone carried both protectiveness and anxiety about leaving him in what might be an unpredictable or potentially hostile environment. “Because even though this is my family's property, there are complicated politics and old grudges that I'm not entirely sure about, and I would feel terrible if something happened to you while you were here under what's su

At that moment, the king's brother nodded his head with the decisive gesture of someone taking personal responsibility for ensuring that crucial plans were executed flawlessly without any room for mistakes or complications that could undermine their carefully constructed strategy.“Well, I'm going to handle all of those arrangements myself personally, and I will make absolutely sure that nothing disrupts or interferes with what the king has explicitly requested regarding this meeting with the Supreme King,” he said with confidence and determination heavy in his voice.His tone carried both respect for protocol and careful manipulation of appearances. “And we are going to ensure that the Supreme King's identity is kept completely safe and protected throughout this entire process, maintaining exactly the level of security and discretion that the king specifically requested when he agreed to this meeting.”The king's brother's expression showed his understanding of how to appear perfect

At that moment, seeing how masterfully the king's brother had manipulated the entire conversation and maneuvered himself into the perfect position to confront the Supreme King, the king's advisor felt compelled to express his genuine admiration for the political skills he had just witnessed firsthand.“Well, you are extremely wise and strategic in everything you do, and you're definitely somebody that I really need to continue learning from if I want to advance my own understanding of how real power works in this kingdom,” the advisor said with respect and calculation heavy in his voice.His tone carried both flattery and genuine appreciation for the masterful manipulation he had observed. “I've been carefully studying your methods and learning from your approach for quite some time now, and I've been gaining so many valuable insights about political maneuvering and psychological influence.”“But the skillful way you managed to maneuver your way into this crucial meeting, convincing

At that moment, the king nodded his head with the decisive gesture of someone who had finally committed to a course of action after considerable internal debate about the wisdom and potential consequences of such a bold move.“Well, no problem then - you just go ahead and send out the black summon with all the official protocols and information that are required for such a serious and formal invitation,” he said with authority returning to his voice. “And yes, I know with absolute certainty that he is definitely going to respond and appear before us, because nobody in this kingdom can ignore the black summon without facing severe consequences.”The king's expression showed a mixture of curiosity and determination. “I honestly never thought that circumstances would create this kind of opportunity for me to actually see the face of the Supreme King myself, since he's been so careful about maintaining his anonymity for so many years.”His tone carried both anticipation and strategic cal
