Kong Pildu is sitting in a restaurant, in front of four very unique characters.

On the left side, there is Min Jiwon, the 'King of Beauty' which so happen to be a woman tired of everyone asking her why title isn't 'Queen of Beauty'. It appears she is idolized by her servant whose dedication and cohesion is shown by their historical cosplays.

There also is Giyeong Yun, the 'Coward King' whose title doesn't fit as he is trying his best to act like a true King and protect his people.

~I could have been a 'Coward King' too but thanks god I also had an other choice.~ Kong Pildu thinks.

The two Kings on the right side are much more powerful and famous.

The first one is the Cha Sanggyeong, the 'Maitreya King', whose title come translated from sanskrit means 'friendly'. He is know to be fair and trustworthy but not naive. The first thing he did when he entered the room was using his [] stigma, with the target approval, allowing him to understand one's true personnality.

Lastly, there is Taeseong Gu, the 'Earth Dragon King'. This King looks serious but not too close-minded, he sounds brave but not over-confident, his eyes want to protect his people but not at the cost of the other groups' safety. In short, he simply is the perfect embodiment of a balanced mindset.

Each King came with one of his men to protect him, Kong Pildu chose Yu Junghyoek. Those bodygard are all gathered in the back of the room.

Kong Pildu : "You all know why we are here but I will make sure everyone is on the same page."

Everyone looks at him, he feels important and discretly smiles.

Kong Pildu : "The Tyrant King has the widest territory, which means he has the biggest army. Moreover, he himself is very strong, my man here faced him recently and it didn't go well."

Yu Junghyoek looks down, thinking of how he could have saved Kim Namwoon, how he could have stopped the Tyrant King.

Kong Pildu : "But the worst part is, he is very crual. We definitly can't let him be the Absolute King or we will all suffer."

Earth Dragon King : "I agree, we can't let him make our people suffer, we have to stop him !"

~Right, but I was thinking about us King because I don't think he will treat us well if he gets us... Might be better to keep those word for myself.~ Kong Pildu tells himself.

Coward King, also looking down : "Yeah... Definitly..."

The Coward King's bodygard explains to Yu Junghyoek that they also faced the Tyrant King a few days ago and lose most of their territory. It was a traumatizing bloodbath and the Coward King barely made it out alive.

King of Beauty, arrogantly: "I've head Chungmuro group began the Fourth Main Scenario lately. You are lucky you survived in here."

~Tss... I hate those kind of people ! I will make her regret her words.~ Kong Pildu decides

Kong Pildu : "Are you making fun of us ? Who do you think you are ?! Two weeks ago you were nothing more than a regular unknown actor !"

King of Beauty : "What !? I dare you insult a member of the royal family !"

Kong Pildu didn't say this out of nowhere, accordint to Ki Kangdae, her attribute is (Ordinary). She indeed was an actress before the apocalypse, she couldn't get famous before but her profile intrested a powerful historical Constellation and their powerful link and her charisma made her an important character in those recent scenario.

Kong Pildu : "Royal family ? You is really invest in your king comedy !"

King of Beauty, hitting the table with her fist : "This is no comedy !!!"

The King of Beauty bodyguard : "You don't talk to my Queen like !!"

Earth Dragon King, loud : "Enough ! Please focus on the topic we came for."

The King of Beauty stops speaking at stares at Kong Pildu.

[Some Constellations are bored by such childish fight]

Kong Pildu : "I suggest we don't waste time and go kick his ass."

Coward King : "Wi... without any stategy ?"

Maitreya King : "We would have too much loses."

Kong Pildu : "How is that an issue ? It's our people duty to fight and die for us."

~Just when I though he changed... He still is so selfish !~ Yu Junghyoek realizes.

After Kong Pildu's words, the four other Kings look at each others thinking the same thing : ~This guy is just like the Tyrant King, we can't let him be the Absolute King either.~

Yu Junghyoek, feeling like he sould say something before they could decide to do not cooperate with Kong Pildu anymore : "As you know the Tyrant King's special skill paralyzes his oppenent. However some skills can reduce this like my [Exceptional adaptivity] skill. So we should try to make a special team of people who can resist his King skill."

Earth Dragon King : "You are right we need a special team..."

Maitreya King : "The fire circle he throws are really dangerous too, do we know anyone who can deal with that ?"

Yu Junghyoek : "I can dodge them, if I am not paralyzed, but I can't protect anyone from them."

Coward King : "I...I feel like you are fit for the role... What is your name ?"

~Oh... That's right I really have great skill for this situation.~ Yu Junghyoek realizes.

Him : "I am Yu Junghyoek."

Coward King : "Nice to meet you Yu Junghyoek."

The discussion went on for a some time but the qualification update interruptes it.
