90 - A Truly Shameless King

Pax and Wolf returned to Cosmopolis after sorting out the new office in Sand Country. For the next few months, at least, they could easily supervise it remotely, which effectively gave Ren and Fang enough time to get over Fang's exams. By then, the medical institute would be fully ready as well, and the young couple could be happily on their way to becoming certified doctors!

However, the world seemed opposed to letting the couple live in peace for too long. Five weeks after their return, an unexpected VIP turned up unannounced in Ren's office and despite his extreme reluctance to meet him, Ren had no choice. He couldn't afford to cause an international incident by being openly hostile to a foreign monarch, after all.

The middle-aged king of Dune Country was a well-maintained and handsome fellow - of course, he couldn't hold a candle to Fang. However, his eyes were shifty and his entire demeanour rather unpleasant.
