Meaning of particles の+さ in the end of the sentence
Hi. Somebody can tell me why sometimes it's used the particle の before さ (especially after verbs).
For example:
僕は王様になるのさ!
捜し物を探しに行くのさ。
どうして黙っているのさ?
行くって、どこへ行くのさ?
好きなようにやればいいのさ。
Write the answer in English, please.

It doesn't have a real meaning or function, it's just a playful assertion at the end of a sentence, like "よ" and "さ” are the same thing, except "さ” is more colloquial. And "の” at the end of a question is used for rhetorical questions or like the speaker challenging the listener to keep up. So yeah, "のさ” isn't a grammatical function, just adds attitude to the sentence.

The particle 「のさ」 gives the reader 2 information.
1. The speaker is a boy. (probably 10 to 25 years old)
2. He thinks he himself is cool.
-> The speaker is probably a manga/anime hero, or a pop singer. These lines are of manga/anime, or of lyrics of a song.
※ 「の」: turning verb/adjective to noun
「さ」:particle to draw the listner's attention.
