Arin felt ashamed of himself.
He was just played by the 'King.'
The instructions were written in English, which could be understood by people from 'Earth' only.
With this method, the 'King' had not only discovered Arin's real identity and origin, but he also made Arin dance on his tune like a monkey.
It was utter humiliation.
He flipped the piece of leather to discover some more lines were written on it.
< I will arrive here by afternoon. I would love to talk to you, preferably alone; you know the reason best. So, if you are not scared, you should stay there alone. I would like to have some discussion! >
Arin had not felt so humiliated in a long time.
His self-confidence, in a second, plummeted to the abyss, and he did not know whether he should cry in rage, frustration, or disappointment.
His dream of world domination seemed to vanish like a puff of smoke.
Arin asked everyone to leave as he would stay there, alone for a while.
