***Announcing the coronation***

At the occasion, the king was seen sitting on his royal throne, surrounded by his wife and princes...

The day was so colorful and the magnificent of the supreme was over the whole court that his subject, together with the Guest was full of his admiration...

Standing from his throne and calling everyone's attention to himself using glass and fork...

***klaklakla!!!***

"As you all know, today marks the 'seven hundred' birthday of my two handsome Princes here and I want to thank you all for taking out time to be here....in this very occasion having your wonderful presence; it's an honor to have you with us...

... The king was reluctant at first before making his statement...

***Clears Throat***

"Hum-hum"

"I would love to make it official, hence, today will significantly stand out as the day Dracos, my 'first son' is crowned my successor."

On his proclamation, the whole Guests became so excited and everyone was already on their toes cheering up his Majesty...

Seeing how happy the people look, the king quickly declared the party open and the coronation process to begin immediately...if only he knew what was awaiting him after coronating Dracos, he might have avoided the situation by making his youngest Brother 'Oasis' the king...

Kafas quickly asked, "why didn't he make Oasis king instead, having been warned by Guile on how evil Dracos is?"

"O kafas! The king can't decide that as it will only lead to chaos and the two princes will be at enmity and if only Guile was able to answer the strange aura of evil that surrounded Dracos and a clear answer to the riddle of the evil that's to come, then can the king decide better and with such counsel from Guile's, peace would definitely have stayed because it came from the 'great wizard' no one would dare refuse it," master kino replied with emphasis.

***Madly overjoyed***

Dracos almost leap off the throne on which he sat close to the king on hearing the supreme's utterance, as he couldn't wait any longer to be king...

"Finally!!!"

....

The king, standing up with raised arms and so greatly overjoyed exclaimed, "let the coronation Begin."

********

Before one is acknowledge as a crown prince, the kingmaker has to first bestow such honor on him by placing the crown assigned to the Crown Prince on his head...

At the supreme Gods declaration, one of the elders came forward; the oldest of all the elders,(known to be the king Maker) to fulfill the king's command...

The elder, bestowed with this great honor of making kings out of princes is known as elder 'Kios'.

The crown was immediately brought in a golden tray decorated with extremely rare beautiful flowers and placed in a golden stool before the king...

With the king Maker(elder Kios) already standing before the king, he beckoned on Dracos to come forward...

"You may please take a knee, my Prince," the kingmaker requested.

[The title of elder Kios as 'king maker' is preferably used as it depict the occasion better]

Having his knee placed on the ground and facing the Guest, the pronouncements of him as crown Prince proceeded from the king maker's lips...

"From the greatest honor in all the cosmos to be one who makes Gods prince and kings and from the greatest of privileges to be able to make you this day the crown Prince of the entire Cosmos, I invoke the ancestral powers of past kings and joining them to that of the great supreme king, the great ruler of the universe and the powers of the 'God of Gods, the immortal ruler, the all-powerful to make you the heir of the universe."

Taking the crown in his hands and raising it...

" From the power vested on me as the supreme kingmaker of the universe, I declare you 'Dracos' as Crown Prince of the universe.."

Immediately, the crown was placed on his head and the king Maker declared...

"You may now rise my Prince."

The whole Guest choired in joy, singing praises and bowing in respect to Dracos, even his twin brother Oasis did him reverence...

Rising from his throne, the king took a Ring crested in Dracos signature and name and placed it on his left hand...

To the guest, the supreme king proclaimed...

"Behold your Prince, the Heir to my Throne and the throne of my ancestors."

***Gbuarrrrraaaa!!!**"

As if the universe was angry with this, a great thunder struck causing everyone to panic but the king waved it off saying...

"This is the greatest approval I have ever seen, the whole universe echoes to his reign."

This speech of his made everyone get over it and the ceremony continued...

...

According to how things are done, two Golden cups will be placed beside the king and his Prince (the crown prince always sits at the king's right hand) is to serve wine for his king. This was to signify the loyalty of the crown prince to the throne.

Dracos seeing the Golden cups placed between them(the supreme king and him) quickly opened the transparent lid of his ring by pressing it back to ensure an easy fall of the unique Crystals...

"The opportunity I had always dreamt of has presented itself before my very eyes. How wonderful seeing things fall into place as planned a..an..and who am I not to take hold of the 'God sent' opportunity before me?"

"Son, you may now serve the wine," the king said without paying much attention to Dracos...

The king was too excited, overwhelmed to realize something was off...

***Tupo!!!***

Seeing how distracted the king was, he quickly poured the wine, dropping both unique crystals in it, and handed it over to the supreme king...

Taking a knee, Dracos said to the king, "My lord, the king, here it is."

"Huh!!!"

The king was shocked.

Hesitating for a while, he pondered on how Dracos renders his service...

"This lad is definitely up to something," he said in his mind...
