Chapter 73: Hello, Brother...
[TAMIKO]
"Oh Toshiro, you came!" Tamiko beamed with excitement as he looked at the lycan king who was dressed worse than earlier.
"Of course. I figured you’d need a familiar face. We’re eating with the dark king, after all," Toshiro said and Tamiko’s eyes lit up with excitement and yet at the same time, there was fear in them.
"Y—" Igor began but the king stopped him.
It was like he didn’t want to let Tamiko know that he who was parading as the bubbly man was the devil the realm ran from. The king’s unpredictability was making Chief Konstantin worried, not just for himself but for the unknowing son who was there with them.
A part of Igor was even more worried about Tamiko’s reaction because he understood just how much Tamiko hated being put in the dark. But then they would eventually find their way there, right?
"Don’t worry. He never talks anyway. He’ll be here soon, I hope you don’t make me laugh tonight. I love my neck sitting pretty on my head," the king said and Igor looked at him like he was crazy.
Of all the things that the king could have done, transforming into whatever this was, had to be the scariest.
Sighing, Igor reminded himself for the hundredth time not to cross this king, because this man was a hundred levels of unhinged. The fact that it was safer for the lycans to be sound to the king, when he was the monster they all ran away from, was even wilder.
