Emperor's Reckoning

The wave crashed as bits of the seawater managed to reach the edge of the balcony. The young man closed his eyes as his lips planted on the beautiful woman's right hand. Graced by the twin moons, the two of them looked like a couple from a fairy tale.

Princess Aelina couldn't help but look away to the horizon as her cheeks gradually turned red. She covered her mouth with her left hand as she occasionally stole a glance at the young man.

Lyon opened his eyes as he stared deep into her shyly eyes. He slowly stood up as Princess Aelina gradually lookup to his towering figure. With his playful smile, he tugged a strand of her hair to the back of her ears.

He slowly put his hand on her waist before he leaned into her left ear and spoke softly, "I will catch you..."

"Eh?" Princess Aelina suddenly opened her eyes wide as she heard what he just said.

*swoosh

"Kyaa!!" Lyon threw her up in the sky as she quickly pressing her skirt down.

The crowd had their eyes bulging out as Clemora spat out her water once again. (What the fuck?!). However, the next scene automatically answered their question.

Lyon quickly used the edge of the balcony and leaned back half of his body horizontally toward the horizon. The crowd blinked once before they saw that a figure was already whipping her feet against Lyon's head horizontally.

The scene was quick for the onlookers but slow for the fighters. Lyon once again caught a glimpse of 'paradise' as the kick missed his head. With the wind blowing from his side, he took a good picture with his eyes and saved it inside his brain. Laughing inwardly he quickly rolled to the side to get a good space.

The two fighters stood against each other once again as the wind fluttered their hair. The onlookers couldn't help but swallow a chunk of their saliva as the atmosphere was getting heavy.

"Who are you exactly?" asked Princess Chloe as she took her stance. (He must be no ordinary person to have survived this long against me, especially with his current cultivation level, what kind of fortuitous encounter he faced?).

"Hmm... Well, I-", his words were interrupted with a woman screaming and falling down the sky, missing the balcony before everyone's eyes. (Eh?)

"Kyaa"

*swoosh

"Oh crap!" Lyon quickly used the edge of the balcony to propelled his jump. The wind was blowing wildly against his face as he kept his vision on the princess.

"Got ya!" Lyon managed to grab her slender hand as he pulled her closer and embraced her. He quickly whispered, "Close your eyes."

Princess Aelina instinctively did as she was told while tightening her grip. She could feel the strong wind wildly hitting them as the sound of the next wave was coming.

With a smirk smile, Lyon enhanced the True Dragon Blessing even further as divinely greenish aura enveloped his figure.

*Boom

Princess Aelina hesitatingly opened her eyes before it slowly got wider and wider. (You're kidding right?).

The man she was clinging to. had a totally different bearing than before. He looked at the horizon as if this world was a disdain. But what surprised her more was that his right arm buried into the cliff and made a huge crack to prevent them from falling.

(Hmm, I bet I looked cool now hehehe). Laughed Lyon inwardly as he kept his expression.

He calmly glanced at the clinging beautiful woman, "Lady, are you alright?"

Suddenly the roar of the wave came as it hit the couple along with the high cliff.

The soaked couple had their faces hidden by their own hair as they still hanging on the side of the cliff. They could only hear the breezing wind as the two of them kept silent.

*purr

Suddenly Lyon let out seawater from his mouth like a sealion fountain.

"Bhuaahaha." Princess Aelina burst into laughter as the water inside her mouth came out like a shotgun and hit Lyon's face. "Oh, I'm so sorry! Let me wipe it with my nap- oh."

"Hahaha," contrary to her expectation, Lyon actually laughed instead of angry. Princess Aelina slowly lips slowly curled up to a smile.

"Well let's climb up, the crowds are waiting," said Lyon after he had his fill of laughter. He signaled her to go over to his back for a piggy ride. She bashfully did what he said and circled her arms around his neck.

He could feel her breast pressing his back as his nostrils getting bigger. He pulled his stuck right arm and began to climb up the high cliff. (Why wouldn't I use the spatial magic? Well, hehehe.) thought Lyon as he climbed the cliff at a slow rate.

He suddenly felt that her face was resting on his broad shoulder as she said softly, "Hey, what it's like to live freely?"

Lyon suddenly stopped his track as the situation didn't call for his perverted nature. He sneakily used his left hand and slapped the wind behind her back. If anyone was to see this they would probably quit cultivating. His slap actually turned the wave back to the ocean! This was only the surface of the True Dragon Blessing's power.

His plan was to keep the wave keep crashing them while Lyon would seek an opportunity to do some 'things'. However, he knew from her tone that this was not the right time.

"Hmm, well, it's fun and dangerous at the same time," answered Lyon as he picked up his speed.

She smiled wryly before replying, "I see."

"Being a noble must be tough huh? Rules and stuff, even though you have everything it meant nothing if you are restricted," continued Lyon while climbing the impossible wet and tall cliff.

Princess Aelina chuckled (He thinks I'm one of the nobles... hehe). Then she leaned closer as she whispers under her breath, "Hey.. would you tell me your name?"

Lyon smiled as his fingers buried deep inside the cliff before propelling him and Princess Aelina high into the sky passing the balcony. Their wet hair fluttered with the wild wind as she closed her eyes.

The crowd noticed two figures leaping up to the sky shadowing the twin moon. They had their jaws dropped to see them both suddenly in the sky as if flying.

Upon reaching the highest point of his jump, he spread both his arms and legs as if sky diving before pulling the beautiful woman on her back to the front as he carried her like a princess. The sarong and the skirt fluttered as he answered, "Lyon Torga."

*boom

The two of them landed on the balcony as Lyon immediately dispersed the True Dragon Blessing.. He slowly opened his eyes as he smirked against the powerful princess in front of him while still carrying the beautiful woman.
