Emperor's Reckoning

The stream of white smoke coming from Kyoko's seductive lips was as dense as the fog, one normally saw in high places such as a mountain. However, it couldn't linger for a longer period of time before it disappeared.

"The very structure of an astral is the world's and heaven's energy, or mana for short. Which means only those things made of the same thing could touch each other." Kyoko stood up and tapped her pipe on the edge of the window.

"In simpler terms, magic, arts, and an object imbued with mana could harm the astral, which effectively injured the user's soul."

Old Sean had his eyes glimmering with knowledge. Learning is a continuous process, it only ended when the person died.

"Thank you for your guidance miss!" said the old man while giving a bow. This was an honor that could make anyone proud. It was more than just a bragging right, receiving his bow meant a leap in status. No matter where anyone lives, having a high status was something almost everyone strived for.

Sadly this didn't apply to Kyoko. In her eyes, he was just an ordinary old man with his ordinary cultivation realm. His bow was nothing but a mere respect anyone would give to their benefactor.

With the explanation done, she returned her pipe to her spatial ring and turned around facing Lyon which had a bit of drool on the edge of his mouth. "Well, little brother, what are you going to do next,"

Lyon was still in a daze, living his own fantasies before her question snapped him back to reality. "Eh? What?"

"Huft, honestly... your thoughts always fly to heaven's knows where when it comes to Kyoko," said Karina as she pulled up a black napkin from her pocket and threw it to Lyon's face. "There you go, go wipe yourself."

In the corner of the room, Luna was seen rummaging her pocket to find her napkin before finally giving up.

"Oh? Hehe sorry about that," said Lyon as he wiped his drolls before keeping the black napkin in his own pocket. "Thank you, teacher," he said the last word in a softer voice that only both of them could hear.

"E-en," Karina nervously nodded her head and quickly glance aside, avoiding direct eye contact with Lyon. He noticed that there was a red shade gradually building upon her cheeks.

(You are really cute like that) thought Lyon before he came back to matter at hand.

"I see, what to do now huh, well my original plan was taking a trip to the Phantera Kingdom which Luna resides but somehow we ended up here hahaha,"

"S-sorry for dragging you down in this mess," Riku agitatedly apologize since she was the one that made the request.

"Oh, it's alright, this place is also fun," said Lyon nonchalantly (Well the girls here are cute, especially the head of the clan).

"Glad to hear that," replied Riku with a rare smile on her face. She was always a serious type but in the end, she was also human.

"Oh right, old man, do you know anything about a group named Legion?"

Suddenly the room fell silent as all attention was weighting down Old Sean. "I see, so you heard of them too," said the old man while stroking his beard.

"I don't know much about them sadly, but I did hear rumors about them."

"Anything is fine old man, even rumors," said Lyon hastily.

"Alright young noble. The rumors that I heard actually came from a different world than ours, it was a place with denser mana. Cultivation realm like mine now was considered weak so they didn't even bother me,"

"Where is this place, what is it called," asked Lyon. He was always interested in learning this new world he was in. He was once in the library to look for this multi-world structure but he never found one.

"The world is called, Mabia. It's a vast world compared to Deo. To go there one must go through the gate sets up in the far east, where Luderia Dynasty resides."

"Luderia!" Biane and Clemora accidentally spoke at the same time.

"Hmm? You know the place?" asked Lyon to them both.

"Of course we know the place, its where we came from," said Biane proudly. "You are saying that making everything.

Lyon suddenly took her right hand with his other hand clamping them. He stared at Biane's eyes as if she was his world.

The sudden motion caught Biane off-guard but she didn't resist in the slightest. The world in her eyes suddenly turned pink as beautiful sakura petals flew by behind Lyon's face. In that instant, she forgot how Lyon treated her in the arena.

*thump

*thump

Her heartbeat gradually increased as her face couldn't help but blush. (W-what happen) her mind slowly going blank.

"Do you believe in fate?" said Lyon softly. Biane's ear twitched a little when she heard what he said. Her brain receives the signal but her words were stuck in her throat.

"Eh?" responded Biane.

In her hometown, she met a lot of suitors with their gullible speech to win her and her sister's favor, but she could easily fend them off. However, facing Lyon was different. His approach was that of a pure reaction. He didn't start with a speech but he started with his hand clamping hers.

The warmth feeling she felt from her hand made her common sense slowly dissipating.

"Y-ye-"

*pak

*ugahh!

Lyon was knocked out by the women around him and there were a few red bumps on his head releasing smoke.

"Sister, sister!" Clemora was shaking her lovestruck older sister.

"Eh?" The world Biane saw immediately crumbled and in its place was Lyon laying on the ground.

"Are you okay sister? You seem out of it, did he do anything to you?"

Biane bit the edge of her right thumb, "Perhaps," said Biane with a blushing face.

(Big bro, you are truly a LEGEND) thought Jugen as his respect towards Lyon actually increased!
