Emperor's Reckoning

Lyon already sat back in his position as few bruises were visible on his face and his arms. There was a swollen spot on the right side of his head. Though he had three times of healing capabilities than normal cultivators, the damage he took was quite heavy. If he didn't have this gift, he was probably laying on the bed.

Elize eyes glanced over at both of them as a hint of worry surfaced on her beautiful face. On one hand, the only male friend she had was beaten up and the problem was the one beaten him was none other than her own mother.

"I can't believe you brat, how could you do such a thing," reprimand Felicia as she crossed her arm in contempt.

(I can't believe you almost killed me either) thought Lyon as he rubbed his head with a dumb look on his face.

"Love sprouts everywhere big sister, not even the fate could predict my action," nodded Lyon. His shameless attitude was beyond repair.

Felicia immediately put her hand on top of her forehead. She couldn't believe what kind of teaching this young man came from. Sure he was a talented individual but he boasted about the wrong things.

"Enough about me big sister, my visit this time is to request your kindness that was beyond that of an old virgin nun."

Felicia and Elize accidentally burst out a chuckle before Felicia shouted, "Enough! Don't say anything anymore! I have a faint idea of why you are here."

Though she was struggling to keep her laugh escaped her mouth, she glanced at the currently napping true dragon. The fact that this young man had a relationship with this divine beast was already out of her comprehension. The proud and aloof true dragon actually coexists with a human. A being that was famous for its cruelty.

After a light cough, she said, "Elize, I'm gonna undo the protection curse."

Elize's eyes immediately lit up, as she said, "Really?!"

Felicia nodded, "With how one of them already found us, this location is not safe anymore."

Lyon furrowed his eyebrows. If he followed what she was saying then the only conclusion why she undid it was because they needed to go to another world to hide.

"Y-you mean?" Elize was taken back by her mother's words. Just as she was free, she was about to flee from the world where she made her first friend.

Felicia looked slightly dejected but she said firmly, "We have no choice, they won't stop until they eradicate us from existence."

Elize built up a warm liquid around the edges of her eyes as she said, "B-But why?! Why do they want to kill us?! What did we do to deserve any of this?!"

The room turned silent as the cry of the woman gouged their heart. Especially for her mother, Felicia, all she knew was that her husband made an unforgiving sin that cost their families such fate. However, what sin did he done was never mentioned by the chasing killers.

She let down her hands and gripped the outer layer of her thigh as she faced down. "S-sorry."

Her eyes suddenly opened wide as a warm hand patted her head. She slowly glanced up to see a smiling face of the happy-go-lucky young man that hugged her heart. "Don't worry, everything will be fine, you don't need to go into so much hiding any longer."

Tears couldn't help but run down her beautiful cheeks as her mouth agape. The cry of a young maiden finally escaped from her deepest heart. She felt helpless toward the situation they were in. They ran and ran but never had it solve anything. She was tired of being confined and she was tired of living in fear that her mother would someday never came back.

The young man slowly stood up before he glanced at her mother.

"Big sister, I'm gonna borrow this for a while," said Lyon as he revealed a jade stone.

"Ah! When did you?!" Felicia immediately crossed her arm and covered her bountiful chest. She hid the returning jade stone under her clothing so if he held the position then that means. Her face turned red as she glared at him. How could he do that in such a situation and when did he even commit the act.

"Grandpa!" shouted Lyon.

"Hahaha! Let's go!" said Grandpa Long as he coiled around and landed on his shoulder.

"Lyon! What are you going to do?" shouted Felicia albeit the red hue on her cheeks.

Lyon smiled at her as he said, "I'll be back."

"No, no, no! Lyon wait!"

His eyes immediately turned sharp as killing intent surged like wildfire inside of his figure. He pulled out the returning jade stone he stole from the crippled old man and crushed it. His figure immediately enveloped by the green light as the young man and the true dragon shot out to the endless sky.

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

In a distant world far away from Deo where the mana was even denser than that of Mabia, was a place where every single cultivator was an expert at the minimum of a Divine Realm to survive the harsh society.

In this world, there was a lone building that was built far from the masses. Not just everyone could enter this building unless they were invited to be a member of a certain group. A group that was notorious and famed from its achievements of killing the ruler of this land centuries ago.

Their service could be bought at the right price and by the right price, it was exorbitant. Needless to say that the chance of their failure was below one percent per hundred thousand cases.

At the topmost floor of the building was the master of this notorious group. His figure was hidden under the black cloak as he wore a mask that hid the top half of his face. He furrowed his eyebrows as a green light entered the room.

"Thuram, I only expect good news."

"Yes, my palm is ready."

The master opened his eyes wide as the green light dissipated, the figure inside already leaped toward him.

Lyon gritted his teeth, "Now you have to deal with me!"

"True Dragon Art: Palm of Shattering World!"

The roar of the true dragon resounded in the sky as the top floor exploded with a loud boom.
