Emperor's Reckoning

Princess Aelina sighed as she heard what Prince Frey just said. Her youngest sibling was always the troublemaker, even in this critical event, she won't come.

Prince Frey averted his gaze to the two beautiful women beside her sister. With a smile, he said, "Good evening miss Clemora and miss Biane, your presence surely light up the banquet tonight."

"Oh, what's this, are you trying to hit on them?" said Princess Aelina as her eyebrows moving up and down while staring at her little brother.

Prince Frey had a little sweat as he stared at her sister. Her moving eyebrows always gave him an uncomfortable feeling. "Royal sister, would you please stop doing that kind of thing?"

"What kind of thing?" asked Princess Aelina as her eyebrows furrowed.

"Nevermind," said Prince Frey. He knew that having a conversation for that kind of thing would be useless and time-consuming.

Biane and Clemra smiled wryly as they saw how these siblings acted. Though they were royalty, they still a brother and a sister after all.

"I heard that Princess Chloe actually going to an academy in the otherworld, but I don't know which world sadly," said Clemora to break the ice.

Prince Frey saw this as a chance to start a conversation, "She is, she is even more talented than older brother Weiss. Fortunately, she is not the kind that would put Luderia in her eyes. Ruling this country means nothing for her."

Princess Aelina nodded, "She enrolls in the Verandum Academy in our neighboring world, Mabia."

Biane and Clemora perked their eyes as she heard the world's name. (That was the name where Old Sean heard rumors about Legion).

Then she sighed, "Maybe she has a crush there. Well, I wouldn't blame her, the cultivation level rate for Mabia was higher than Deo."

"Don't worry, she is still here in the palace, but I don't know where." The dignified voice didn't come from any of the four.

Biane and Clemora took a step back as they saw the source of the voice.

"Oh older brother, what are you doing here? I thought you are going to receive the guests," asked Princess Aelina noticing her two best friends' motion.

"Yes, I was in the middle too, but I saw you guys hanging out over here, so I might as well say hi," replied Prince Weiss as he averted his gaze to her friends instead. "What a lovely evening, to be graced by the two infamous beauty, miss Biane and miss Clemora."

His praise didn't get any reaction from the two women. "It's truly is a surprise that you two could make it here. I hear that you two were away for quite some time?"

"Yes, we just got back this morning," said Clemora calmly despite facing the conductor of the drama.

"Oh, with a new driver too if I heard correctly," replied Prince Weiss with a smile.

"He is more than just a driver older brother," chuckled Princess Aelina as she covered her mouth.

"Haha, don't mind Aelina too much, she loves to tease and make jokes," laughed Prince Weiss.

The onlookers could only watch from afar as they converse with each other. They couldn't make up what they were saying because their status was beneath them for them to join in.

"How is your father doing by the way?" asked Prince Weiss with a shrewd smile.

Clemora was calm and collected as she replied with a smile "He is well, or should I say, beyond well."

Her answer brought confusion to the three royalties before they began speculating what she meant by that. Clemora smiled as she saw their expression, while Biane eyes were sharp as she looked at Prince Weiss.

"Please excuse us as I and my sister would like to taste the gourmet inside," said Clemora with a bow before dragging Biane out of the scene leaving the three royalties.

Inside the living room of the Elgome family mansion, a figure was sleeping soundlessly on the sofa. His eyes twitched as he slowly opened them. The blurry vision finally getting clear as he focused on the thing that was on his chest. He squinted his eyes as his right hand grabbed the black furball and hanged it in the air.

The black furball slowly turned around and revealed itself as Fenrir. With his little triangle nose perked up, his cute little eyes were still closed as his tail occasionally waggle.

"Oi," called Lyon to his companion.

Fenrir lazily opened his eyes as he saw his master. The two of them stared at each other for quick two seconds before Fenrir closed his eyes once more. Lyon's mouth couldn't help but twitched as he saw his attitude.

He got up and sit on the sofa while his hand still gripping the sleeping little wolf. "Alright, let's go!" said Lyon as he put Fenrir on the usual spot.

On the way to the entrance of the mansion, he would occasionally meet the maids in the mansion. Needless to say that they were scared and turned frigid, but they still greet him with a 'good evening'.

Opening the gate he looked at the palace with a smirk.

"Wait a minute, how should I get there? I don't have the invitation! Hmm... should I sneak like a thief or do the grand entrance like what I did with Jugen back then," contemplated Lyon as he started to walk to the palace.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

In front of the gate were two guards on a night shift. One of them squinted his eyes as he saw a figure was walking toward them.

"Hey, look at that, someone is coming," said the guard while tucking his partner.

"I know man, I have eyes." replied his partner.

The figure was none other than Lyon with his right hand propping his chin as he appeared to be in deep thought.

"That's a hella of clothing he wore, a thin shirt in the middle of the night," said the guard in awe.

"Dude, I have eyes." replied his partner

"Oh shut up," said the guard as he approached Lyon.
