Emperor's Reckoning

Felicia waved her hands in a beautiful pattern as the mana surrounding the lake increased by a significant amount. The water surged like a torrent as it encapsulated the man and sealed in him inside a sphere.

Meanwhile, Lyon was frantically swimming against the water current, otherwise, he would get caught up by her attack.

Taking a deep breath, her eyes turned sharp as she muttered, "Undine Art: Sphere Compression."

As the man's lung filled with water, the sphere itself rotated horizontally. The spinning accelerated greatly as each second went. Before long, the sphere was compressed little by little due to the rotation speed, turning it into a wide circle.

*splash

The wide circle broke into droplets of water that returned to the lake. There was no corpse to be seen from her attack. It was probably one of the most cleanness ways to kill someone.

"Gah, gah, hah."

Lyon was panting as the water stopped its current. It was as if swimming against a huge tsunami wave and got on top. He surely would have set some records if it was done back on Earth.

Felicia didn't bat an eye for the man she just killed as she descended down, facing the shameless young man who was catching breath. "Looks like you have some explaining to do."

"Oh, I know just the place where we could sit calmly and enjoy hot chocolate milk beside a fireplace."

said Lyon without any hesitation nor nervous tone in his sentence. It was as if he was talking to someone ordinary.

"Stop joking," said Felicia as her red hair fluttered against the wind.

Lyon was confused. After putting away the returning jade stone, he said, "I'm not joking, trust me, you wouldn't believe this pretty big sister, but there is a house right under the center of this lake."

Felicia's eyebrows and mouth were twitching as she closed her eyes in rage.

"Don't worry though, I'm sure my friend would welcome you, in fact, you have the same hair color as hers so I'm sure you would be friends in no time!" explained Lyon confidently.

Only after he muttered those words that Lyon noticed. His eyes immediately turned sharp as he inspected her thoroughly (Wait a minute, same hair color, those ample breasts, the face also almost resemble her, that burnished complexion, those ample breasts!).

(Oh crap, I think I know who she is) thought Lyon as he noticed why she was fuming right now.

"B-Beautiful big sister please don't be mad, at least don't kill me, I'm still a virgin!" (At least in this world hehe).

She gritted her teeth, as her eyes opened. "How bold of you brat, to invite me over to my own house?!"

(I knew it, she is Elize's mother!) thought Lyon as he immediately dived below the water. With his mouth holding as much air as he could until his cheeks bulged, he frantically swam to the house in the subject.

(Goddamn it! I should have prepared the magic spell to teleport! Oh no!), before he could even arrive at the door, the water suddenly pulled him upward to the surface.

Breaking out the surface, Lyon was pushed upward as the water held him in the sky. The water surging formed like a huge sunflower, where he was at the center, being presented to its master.

As his limbs were held by the water, only his head was free. With his hair dangling down, he faced the mature beauty with a smile.

"What are you smiling at, don't you know the position you are in right now?" asked Felicia. Normally, people would have freaked out and pleaded for their lives to be spared but he didn't do that. She didn't feel any nervousness at all from him despite the disparity of their cultivation levels.

"I know what position am I in right now, I'm stuck at staring the beauty in front of me. A beauty, that was carved in heaven but lives in this world."

Felicia's lips slowly curved up into a smile after she heard his shameless flirting, "Stop playing games brat, I heard something better than that."

Lyon kept his smile, "Of course, I wouldn't expect myself to melt your heart with just flowery words, I'm not that kind of man."

"Oh, are you a knight in shining armor then?" teased Felicia. She seemed to forget her initial question.

Lyon chuckled before shaking his head, "Do I look shiny?"

"Pfft, hahaha," Felicia burst out her laughter.

Unbeknownst to them, Elize and Long were peeking at them and heard all of their conversations. Elize, in particular, was making a pout on her face. She felt complicated as she liked that her mother had finally laugh out loud since forever, but she kinda hated it that Lyon was flirting with her. (You better make me laugh too later!).

"So, are you going to let me down now?" asked Lyon. Since this was the perfect chance to ask he didn't hesitate to take it.

"Fat chance brat," said Felicia shaking her head.

"Ah, what's this deja vu?"

Felicia turned her eyes sharp as she lightened her tone, "What's your name?"

Though it was slightly different, Lyon knew there was a change to her heart. From the sentence she was using to ask him, he knew he did manage to soften her brute heart because instead of using 'who are you?' she directly asked his name, not to mention the non-hostile tone.

"My name is Lyon Torga," answered Lyon with a smile despite being held like a hostage.

She slightly furrowed her eyebrows before she contemplated (Torga? Where did I hear that name last time? I can't remember).

"Where are you from?" asked Felicia. She wanted to know if she could jolt her memory through this question.

"Hmm, I'm not from this world."

(I knew it, nobody in this world would have that kind of strong heart, to be firm and calm despite the overwhelming opposition that might as well be gods to them) thought Felicia.

"I'm from a world called, Earth."
