Emperor's Reckoning

Inside the carriage, Lyon was seen actively engaging a negotiation with Clemora, "I promise I won't make trouble for you or your sister." He looked at her with deep jet black eyes of his.

"You think a promise is something I could afford to rely on?" said Clemora with a deep icy tone.

Then Lyon nonchalantly said, "C'mon don't be like that, we are friends aren't we, besides I need to go there to visit my girlfriend," as he gave a piece of paper to Clemora.

Her mouth twitched a little when she heard his reasoning but all of that was erased when she read the writing on the paper she just received.

'I know about the political struggle, I can offer you my help if you are interested because I know I am.'

Realizing what he was doing, Clemora said, "That's a surprise, you have a girlfriend there?"

"Yeah, of course, who do you think I am?" said Lyon with a shrug.

"Then what if I can't offer you a ride, what would you do then?" asked Clemora as she smirked.

With a dejected face, he said, "I guess I have to take walk then, maybe on the road there is a nice person that could take me for a ride."

In the eyes of regular people, they were just chitchatting like an old friend asking a favor. Only those with an acute and sharp mind could tell that their sentences were not as their ear told them.

Clemora clearly saw a new light on him, he was more than just a perverted cultivator. She had searched his origin but to no avail. The people in Nostria keep saying weird things like that Lyon actually came from the sky like a divine being. However, one truth remained, that he was dubbed the man who will define an era, the everlasting genius. The more she knew him the more mysterious he gets.

There were those who believe and there were those who do not. In the end, Nostria was still a small kingdom compared to the others so their credibility might be questionable for some.

Clemora took a deep breath before saying, "Okay fine, I'm not that heartless you know."

"Alright! By the way, did this carriage just arrived yesterday?" asked Lyon as he touched the top interior of the small room.

"No, it came here today as scheduled. Why do you ask?"

"Ah, nothing, I'm just curious."

(No wonder I've never seen it before) thought Lyon as he admired the interior design of the carriage, but his eyes occasionally took a peek at the most beautiful thing there.

"Okay, you can stop doing that now," said Clemora with her eyes closed. She knew what Lyon was up to from the very beginning.

"Doing what?" Lyon feigned ignorance and keep repeating what he did.

(Such shameless level is ridiculous) thought Clemora as she almost lost interest in continuing the conversation.

"Hmm, I just remember, where are the other women you were with?"

"You mean Karina, Kyoko, Ryona, and Luna?" reaffirmed Lyon.

(Wow, he named them all) thought Clemora as she was astonished before replying with a nod.

Lyon's face suddenly became gloomy, "Luna suddenly wanted to go back to her kingdom and trained her bloodline with his father." (And we just had our first kiss!). "They said the uncontrollable bloodline could cause a deficit to her cultivation in the future if she let it be."

It was apparent that Luna was on the verge of fully control her bloodline so she needed someone with more familiarity to guide her.

Then he continued, "Ryona is training under Kyoko's tutelage. I'm honestly surprised by this, I thought Ryona was the strongest of the bunch or maybe because I never saw Kyoko fight before."

"Karina and Jugen go back to Nostria to take a break and checked out the situation there. So I'm all alone now. Oh, and Riku is now recuperating in her own house with her parents."

Clemora only nodded in response, before going out of the carriage. "Guards, this young man will be joining us in our way back to Luderia."

The sudden announcement caught the guards off guard.

"Miss, I don't think that's a good idea." said one of the guards before he continued, "That young man is suspicious miss and we can't afford to have more trouble than there is."

"I agree with him, we are only ordered to take you and miss Biane back to Luderia." said the other guard.

"So you think I don't have the right to take a guest in my carriage?" said Clemora with a commanding tone.

"We wouldn't dare miss!" the guards immediately backed off. However, it was evident in their eyes that they were pissed. Though this had been unnoticed by Clemora, it was, however, under Lyon's watchful eyes from the window.

"What's going on here?" a beautiful figure walked in.

"M-miss Biane!" the guards immediately paid respect.

The beautiful person was Biane, the woman with gravity affinity. Her diva figure was always mesmerizing.

"It's nothing older sister," said Clemora as she shrugged off the situation.

Biane looked at the two guards before saying, "Are we ready to depart now?"

"Yes, we already did a check up on the carriage, the horses are ready at any time." said one of the guards.

"Older sister, you might want to take a look inside the carriage first," chuckled Clemora as she covered her mouth.

"Hmm? Are you trying to prank me? Hah, you are too naive. Well whatever, I was bored anyway." said Biane as she waved her hair and confidently walked to the door.

"Okay, NOW," said Lyon as he suddenly opened the carriage door.

"Eh?" Biane who was about to open the door got pushed away by the sudden opening of it. She immediately lost her balance and fell back down.

However, before Biane could hit the ground her hand was pulled by a warmth thing. Opening her eyes, she saw the man once again. "Are you alright?"

The man and woman looked like lovers that haven't seen each other in a long time.

Clemora had her mouth agape staring at the situation (What the hell just happened?!).
