It states that the mask is owned by the Masked Royal, which is obvious. We're only supposed to deliver it to Kukui, so he can give it back to the Masked Royal

All of that is true and none of it implies that royal and kukui are two different people. The item being called 'the professor's mask' means rather explicitly that it is owned by the professor.
