Emperor's Reckoning

Kyoko raised one of her eyebrows as she saw the phenomenon of eight falling stars. She had one single special eye under those azure hair of hers. Not even a ghost could hide under its glare. 

"Hmm..."

She hummed before she looked at the three other people among the queue that took her interest. Their mana differed from the rest of the heroes. (Those three people are without a doubt from the so-called Top Board, they must have the capabilities to evoke a phenomenon).

"However..."

Kyoko was looking at the entrance gate of the East City and she couldn't feel any of his presence around. The young man that made a miracle and broke her and twelve others from the eternal prison, Labyrinth of Simak. 

"We are all waiting for him."

Kyoko was a little bit surprised before she darted her glance from the gate to the woman who was standing firm in front of her. Though she was a little bit shorter than her, it was obvious that her dignity had matured in more ways than one. With the hairstyle of a woman and not a little girl anymore she crossed her arms as she slightly furrowed her eyebrows. 

"Our focus now is to see the capabilities of the others. Though I have no doubt that he would win, sometimes he just likes being dumb."

Kyoko let out a chuckle because she knew the case of him being dumb on some occasion was just his unique way of approaching other women. If the woman was interested enough in his dumb way and how he acted on his true self then probably she was worth the time, at least, that was what Kyoko thought about Lyon's unique though shameless, behavior.

"It really does make a difference when a young girl has ascended to become a woman."

Luna's ears perked up a bit as she heard what Kyoko just muttered. Her cheeks gradually turned a red hue as she tried to calm herself. She was no longer the virgin girl she used to be, but it was still hard for her to maintain a straight face even that it happened for a while.

"I'm sorry but I couldn't help ask after accidentally listening to your mutter."

Luna raised her eyes before she looked at the person in front of her.

He was a head taller than her and his face was charming to the point that he was only lower than Lyon. His red hair was well-textured despite the short length. His jawlines were defined and his figure was a bit on the thinner side. He wore a white garb that revealed his cleavage and upper abdominals. 

Kyoko furrowed her eyebrows as her eyes turned sharp as she looked at the figure standing in front of Luna. (This guy's mana is quite dense compared to the rest! Who is he?) thought Kyoko before she blatantly asked the question.

"Who are you?"

However, she was beaten by the woman that was standing in front of her. She was a bit surprised by her taking the initiative to ask the young man. In the end, she slightly shook her head with a smile. 

The young man was a bit taken back by her sudden question as he raised his eyebrows. His mouth had slightly gaped as he lost for words to say before he blinked. She looked at the beautiful woman in front of her with disbelief.

(Who is this woman, this is the first time that a woman didn't fall under my charm nor my aura) thought the man. Though he was slightly irritated he didn't show it any on his face.

He smiled an innocent smile that could flutter a young woman in a snap of a finger. However, the woman in front of her didn't even flinch, instead, her eyes slowly turned bored.

(Tch! This woman is too prideful!) thought the young man.

"Ah, my name is Kaiju, Heaven's Son, Kaiju Loh."

"Oh."

(Oh?! OH?!) Kaiju screamed inside his heart as the veins on his forehead almost exploded in rage. There was nothing that could have prepared him for this since it never happened before. 

"Ah, Heaven's Son, Kaiju Loh."

Kaiju raised his eyebrows before seeing the well-endowed woman behind Luna with azure hair. The mature air around her was undeniable and the figure inside the kimono that she wore could melt an iceberg. He gulped at the sight of such beauty with two different eye colors.

He was about to open his mouth and voiced his words before another came by beside her. It was a woman with the orange hair that was vibrant with energy just like the sun above. From her face, one could determine how playful she was. 

Ryona was about to say something before a pair of girls were approaching the group with one of them bringing a tray of food from the locals.

"Is this enough for everyone Clemora?" asked Biane at the side.

"Yes sister, I already count it four times, why don't you help me bring it?"

"This is the obligation of an older sister hahaha."

The pair of sisters approached them before Ryona had her eyes sparkling at the food on the tray. However, before she could even pounce on them her ears were being pulled by another beauty that struck Kaiju in awe. A human woman that could beat an elf in a beauty contest. The golden silk hair belonged to no one but Karina Aprilia, Golden Demoness.

"Aw, aw, aw, alright stop it already, stop pulling you teacher fetish woman!"

"W-W-What?!" Karina's cheeks turned red before she started to strangle her down by the nack

"Gh! Gh ghgh! Can't breathe! Overseer! Overseer!"

Kaiju gulped his saliva. He couldn't believe that he was presented by otherworldly beauties in a single day. 

(W-What's this, why are these beautiful women grouped together?) thought Kaiju as he smiled sinisterly inside his heart.

"So... what is your question, Kaiju Loh?"

Kyoko tilted her head with a smile as she looked at the young man in front of her. 

"Ah..."

Kaiju was taken back before he remembered the sad excuse he was making to ask Luna. He scratched the back of his head while his innocent face asked, "She said that she had no doubt that a certain 'he' would win, I wonder who is she talking about?"

(Certainly me! Hahaha! Not only I'm one of the best, but I was also favored by the heaven themselves) thought Kaiju as he laughed inside his heart.

"Oh..."

Kyoko chuckled before Kaiju turned smug. 

"Who else is there but... the Young Emperor himself."

Kyoko's answer broke his dreams right at that second. He was sure that she would call her name and become the attention of the ladies. However, the nickname Young Emperor was not his. 

"Who?"

Kaiju slightly furrowed his eyebrows with slight confusion on his face. He must have heard them wrong the first time.

"Tch..."

Luna was slightly irritated before she straightened her chest and crossed her arms with her body slightly leaned forward. She smirked. The unique smile that she had seen thousands of times over from the same man that made her a true lady, had rubbed off on her to the point she almost could mimick his style.

"There is no one else with the nickname Young Emperor. That nickname, no, that title belonged to one man, named..."

Luna let out a chuckle before her demeaning eyes looked at the man who was called Heaven's Son.

"Lyon Torga."

Kaiju furrowed his eyebrows. He ran down his memories and didn't remember anyone famous called Lyon Torga. If he were to be known then he must belong to the Top Boards. However, his name was not there. 

"Hahahaha!"

Kaiju suddenly laughed to their surprise. 

"You guys are delusional if you think someone could beat me! Let alone a nobody with a silly name like that! How shameless someone could be to call himself an emperor hah!"

"Wow, it didn't take long for him to show his true color," muttered Ryona.

Kaiju smirked before he said, "Let me show you why I'm called heaven's son."

He turned around before the onlookers who were focusing on the huge ashen bell started to notice him.

"H-Hey it's Kaiju!"

"Kaiju Loh!"

"It's the Heaven's Son Kaiju Loh!"

"I can't believe it! He is in the East City."

The onlookers were all smiles as they opened the path for him to the huge ashen bell. He didn't bother to look at the various glaring and amusement of his fellow competitors. He didn't even look at the Fist of Eight Stars before he took the first step of seven.

Dong!!

"Now witness! Why am I the favored one for those living above!" shouted Kaiju toward the sky.

"Heaven!! I demand you to wake up!"

Kyoko and the rest of the group furrowed their eyebrows as they watched the phenomenon unfold right before their very eyes.
