Unlimited Power - The Arcane Path

Both Ren and Yuki looked at Leon as if he was some trash that was making some unreasonable demands... they couldn't see that they had become unreasonably violent and hot-blooded. Regardless, it was evident that they wouldn't be able to damage Leon using normal means, so they stopped their useless struggle.

Yuki was still the empress, but she sat on the floor of the main hall as if she was sitting on a dojo. However, that was actually a dojo... Yuki turned the main hall, where she used to receive her advisors in a training area. The people who were bleeding from their noses were her sparring partners. Regardless, Leon sat down too, but just that action made both Ren and Yuki click their tongue. Leon also could hear the dozens of guards around them ranging their teeth.

"Why are you guys so mad?" Leon asked.

"Look at you... someone with your appearance invades the palace and even acts as if nothing is wrong with that," Ren said. "You filthy dog..."

"Excuse me for my appearance," Leon shrugged. "But it has been a very long while since I saw a clothing shop... Anyway, how much time has passed?"

"What kind of question is that?" Yuki asked, very annoyed. "How much time has passed since what?"

"... Since the monsters appeared." Leon said.

"How the hell should I know?" Yuki raised her voice again.

"Good grief..." Leon massaged his eyebrows. "Did you forget how old you are, too?"

"Hey, Ren," Yuki said. "How old am I?"

"You are nine hundred and eighteen years old, Your Majesty," Ren answered.

After hearing that, Leon's mouth stayed open for quite a while... Nine hundred years have passed since he disappeared. Yet, Ren and Yuki didn't look a single day old... In the end, despite all his efforts, Leon didn't return on time. Many years passed, and it wasn't that surprising that Yuki and Ren forgot about him.

"Shit, shit... I will kill those fucking bastards." Leon bit his lips.

"Mind your language in front of Your Majesty!" Ren said.

"Shut the hell up, Ren!" Leon shouted. "... Did you guys forget who gave you those rings too?"

"Gave? No one gave us anything. We found them," Yuki said.

"... Where did you find it?" Leon frowned.

"... Hey, Ren. Where did we find those rings?" Yuki asked.

"My apologies, Your Majesty." Ren lowered his head. "I don't remember..."

"You forgot where you obtained an item that you have been using for nine hundred years..." Leon furrowed his eyebrows. "But you didn't forget her age when Yuki herself forgot... that is one hell of platonic love."

"What! You bastard!" Ren shouted.historical

Although he was nine hundred and some years old, Ren got embarrassed. Leon couldn't help but shake his head. He just tried to make fun of him, but he actually stepped on a landmine. Regardless, Leon didn't have time to waste with that.

"I was the one who created those rings, you fool," Leon said. "Still, I guess it can't be helped considering for how long I disappeared... did you guys forgot about Makoto's death too?"

The next moment, Yuki's body became a blu,r, and she attacked Leon. However, he already expected that kind of reaction, Yuki just hit the empty space and destroyed everything that was on her path... even the floor of the dojo. She only stopped after she collided against three of her guards.

"Don't use my father's name as if you know him..." Yuki glared at Leon.

Leon felt his mana decreasing. It looked like Yuki learned or obtained a tome that taught her Hateful Gaze. Regardless, the skill didn't work.

"I knew him... even though you forgot, I was nearby when he died," Leon said. "Well, forget about it... It looks like you also forgot about his sword."

"My father's katana... where... what..." Yuki opened her eyes widely once she remembered about it.

"You gave the katana to me. You said that it was proof that we were allies..." Leon sighed. "I'm sorry, but I lost it... Well, I don't really have to apologize since you forgot about it. Anyway, what happened to America and the other countries? Don't tell me that you forgot that you were allied with them too."

Yuki's face was full of confusion, but then she got mad again... not because of the katana, but because she remembered about those allies.

"What? Are you one of them?" Yuki said, her face was distorted of anger. "I made those bastards run away from this planet. I don't need any weaklings or goody-two-shoes idiots on my side or this planet."

"You did what?" Leon frowned.

Leon couldn't believe how imprudent Yuki had become, she got defeated by Leon with relative ease, and now she was taunting him as if that had never happened. Regardless, it looks like the countries didn't manage to work together for long after he disappeared and Leon couldn't understand why... Yuki, Ren, Amanda, Hector, Tom, and Sarah just had to negotiate with the Indians and the Chinese...

"You didn't hear me?" Yuki frowned. "I said that I don't need the help of such useless people. Since they would only cause problems for me, I made them run away."

"Explain what happened," Leon said.

Before Yuki could explain anything, one of her soldiers appeared with a box on his hands. Yuki smirked when he saw it, and as soon as the soldier opened the box, something flew to her hands.

"Hah! Why should I?" Yuki said while she was pointing to Leon, her fists that now were equipped with some gloves.
