Emperor's Reckoning

*splash

The scenery on the lake was still as peaceful as ever. A fish sometimes jumped out of the water the birds were hovering in the sky, and the sun was bright but not too hot.

*blurrr

A beautiful figure was diving and scared the fishes away. Her orange hair was waving and glowing like there was a sun in the lake. People would have mistaken her for a mermaid if they didn't see her legs.

She was wearing a white fabric like a towel to cover her lower part while her upper part was held by a black bra with a strap made out of caramelised flexible wood which enhanced her sexiness.

She seemed to be looking for something under the lake but she didn't know that 'something' was beside her, inside a turtle shell.

*splash

Ryona decided to go to the shore and join the others.

*tap

Riku quickly approached Ryona with a towel on her hand, "M-master, here is your towel".

"Thank you," said Ryona before asking, "is hubby back yet?"

"No, he is not back yet, let's just eat the food," said Kyoko.

"B-but," stuttered Luna.

"It's alright, if he came back after we finished the food then it's his own fault!" said Karina.

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

Lyon didn't know that he was going to lose the imperial foods that Luna provides.

"Teacher Shen, is it possible to break her curse?" asked Lyon.

"Hmm, we could ask the caster to undo it if it's possible," asked Shen.

"Elize, who put the chain curse on you?"

Elize's eyes look gloomy and sad as she recalled about who the caster was.

*grab

Lyon's hands held Elize's as he noticed her gloomy expression, "Trust me."

Elize then looked at Lyon's unwavering eyes before she motioned her mouth.

Lyon's pupils shrunken as he heard Elize's answer. His eyebrows slammed together as veins popped up on his face. His breathing became hurried.

Elize could clearly feel the horrendous aura that wanted to rip off the world and felt a bit scared.

"Calm down boy!" said Shen.

Only then Lyon's breathing became normal gradually.

How could he not be mad, the caster of Elize's chain curse was ... Elize's mother. What kind of mother that would do this to her own daughter.

Her name was Felia Slor. She was considered a top-notch mage expert, only five people in her world could be considered equal. She was a kind person that help a lot of people in her world, but fate had other plans.

One day she received a grievous news that her husband had been killed. In a rage, the woman chased after the killer and acquired a clue that the killer was hired by someone else. The killer didn't mention who the one that hired him was. It was a code of his organisation, so no matter how torturous Feli became, his lips were tightly sealed.

Fearing that her daughter would be the next target, she travelled the world and finally came to Deo and the rest was self-explanatory.

Hearing her explanation, Lyon's tense aura became normal once again.

"Did your mother visits you often?" asked Lyon.

"Usually only on my birthdays," said Elize.

"When is that?"

"It's in another six months."

"Alright then."

Lyon's answer, left Elize confused.

"Teacher Shen, could you accompany Elize while I'm gone, I'll be back six month's later."

"Hmm? Are you sure?"

"Yes, just buy me sometimes, in case I'm late."

"Okay then."

*fuzzzz

A smoke suddenly appeared on Lyon's shoulder which startled Elize.

"Lyon, your shoulder! it-it's smoking!" said the panicked Elize.

"Don't worry, I want you to meet someone," smiled Lyon.

"Don't be scared of me, little girl." said the smoke.

"Ah!, it just talked!" Elize stepped back.

The smoke slowly dispersed and revealed Shen Long's body.

"This is only my corporal body made by the world's energies, I will keep you company while Lyon is gone." said the dragon.

*uwahh

Elize's eyes were like a kid who saw a new cool toy. She curiously touched Shen's long moustache-like whiskers which always fluttering.

Shen had blacklines over his crocodile head and he glanced at Lyon.

*uwahh

Lyon was like Elize, he too stroke the long fluttering whiskers.

*sigh

*ehem

Shen's cough was the alarm they need to act more behave.

The both of them were deeply embarrassed.

"Hah...

"hahaha.." Lyon started to laugh.

"te~ehe. .." Elize slowly laughed together with him.

Shen only smiled wryly at them.

"Hey you still got three hours for today's quota right?" asked Lyon.

"Hmm, yes I have what of it?"

*grab

*bang

Lyon quickly grabbed Elize's hand and opened the entrance. What he saw was a wall of water, "Follow me!"

*splash

*splash

*splash

Lyon quickly swam to the surface while dragging Elize with Shen leisurely followed them from behind.

*fuwahh

Lyon was the first one to get to the surface and take a deep breath, "Let's go they are waiting." said Lyon to Elize.

Meanwhile, on the shore of the lake, the girls and Jugen already began their feast.

*munch

*munch

"Too bad big brother is not here," said Jugen as he grabbed another chicken leg.

"Don't eat too fast you might choke," said Karina.

"GAG! gaggagag!" just after Karina said that Jugen began to choke. He was holding his own neck, trying to fix himself.

Karina noticed this and sighed before she approached Jugen.

Realising her sister was about to come, he nervously dragged himself backwards, like he was running in a horror movie, "gagggag"

*shrek

*shrek

Jugen began to crawl back, but resistance was futile.

*sfwoosh

*bang!

Karina jumped and kick Jugen's back to the ground.

*bwuah

*stuhb

Jugen vomited out the chicken leg, like a bullet and hit a nearby tree.

*splash

*splash

Lyon began to walk on the shallow water of the lake hand in hand with Elize.

"Hey, guys."

Kyoko was the one who approached them first, "Hi, what's your name?"

"E-Elize."

"Come and join us Elize," said Kyoko as she dragged her to their feast.

(Oh I know where this is going) thought Lyon.

Lyon sat down, and try to take a roasted beef, but Luna took it first and give them to Elize's plate. Then Lyon tried to fork out the roasted noodles, but Karina stole it from him.

(Yup, I knew it.)
