Emperor's Reckoning

"One thing for sure is that it is nice to see you guys looking the same," one of the thirteen being suddenly voiced out his opinion.

The other eleven instinctively glance at the young man with handsome and charismatic features. His wolf's ear and glasses brought about a ruler aura around him. It was apparent that he came from a higher lineage.

"Hahaha, Vale, I never thought you would be the first one to speak," said a man with two vertical scars across both of his eyes. His brown complexion and vigorous trait never cease to lift up the group's spirit.

"Yeah, what uncle Tristan said is right! I was supposed to be the first one to talk, it's my right as a child!" said the little girl beside Ryona.

"That's too bad Miko, he stole it from you haha," said a man with a handsome feature, his chiseled cheeks defined his face as masculine. His lean figure and fair black hair could captivate any woman he likes.

Miko looked at the man with a smile before her expression fell flat. "Eh, who are you?"

The man felt like a spear just penetrated his soul (Oi, don't you think that is hurtful?! God knows how many years the thirteen of us had been together!).

Before the man could answer, suddenly his collar was dragged by a hand that was covered in gloves. Looking down on him was a beautiful elf woman, her yellow hair was tied but her expression was full of killing intent.

"Spy! How bold of you to come in this room unprepared!"

"What are you talking about Elaine?!" said the man while pushing the hand away.

"Calm down Elaine, my dear, you shouldn't press on the spy blatantly," said Dina as her wrinkly eyes still closed.

Suddenly a gaseous shadow appeared behind the 'spy' as a sickle appeared around his neck.

"Should I send you to the grave or will you talk," said a skeleton that was clad in black coats.

"Yeah, Duffous and big brother Grim! You will never escape from us!" said a fat man that was wearing the same black coats as the skeleton.

"What is wrong with you guys?" said the 'spy' while lightly pushed the blade of the sickle away from his neck.

"Guys, please don't be so violent," a squeaky voice suddenly stopped the two brothers' act of might.

His figure of a bodybuilder clearly betrayed his voice and the paper on his mouth clearly made him looked weird despite being well-dressed.

"Heck, Pedro, why don't you ask Savior to remove that paper of yours, that's what makes your voice so irritating!" said a little boy with a pair of horns. While wearing his magician robe he continued, "Why are you guys so stupid, the guy is Parriot in his human form!"

*Ah!

Exclaimed the eleven of them.

"Yeah, Hahaha!" laughed Elaine while patting Parriot's back with a mountainous strength. Even the sound when it connected made the others worried about his spine.

(Thanks, Albert! You are my only friend, although you only knew my identity because of your talent in magic and sensing mana, I appreciate it) thought Parriot who was still getting smacked in on his back.

"Hmm? Big brother why are you fidgeting?" said Miko as she noticed the young man beside her looked nervous.

"Ah-haha, no it's nothing," said the young man while shaking his head.

(Why am I even here?! Goddamn it! Who started the rumor that there are thirteen beings?! There only eleven! Freaking eleven!) thought the young man.

His golden hair was unlike Elaine, though he was probably the closest relative of her race. His handsome feature even probably came from one. However, he knew that he shouldn't be here at all.

"Jugen, where is Lyon?" asked Ryona.

"Ah, well, I think he was talking with Fei for something," answered Jugen.

That's right, he was Jugen. The only young man that followed Lyon's adventure and survived various ridiculous events with him. He may not be the strongest nor the most cunning but he was still the Golden Demoness's little brother.

(Ah goddamn it! Come hell or high water! I'm not afraid anymore!) thought Jugen as he knew he was too late for backing down.

"Ah, that's a really cute little wolf! Big brother, can I hold it? Can I?" asked Miko with heartful eyes toward the little black fur sitting on a chair beside Jugen.

"You mean Fenrir? Of course, you can," said Jugen as he picked up the sleeping baby wolf beside him.

"Uwaah, so cute! So Fenrir is your name huh?" said Miko as she patted Fenrir's head gently.

(Well, I was going to the dining hall to pick up big bro, but I found him sleeping beside foods on the table instead).

"Ah! You are the one! I remember you hahaha!" shouted Tristan while pointing at Jugen before laughing.

Jugen couldn't help but look down embarrassed. Tristan was referring to a certain event back in the labyrinth where he met Jugen but with his guardian form.

*tap*tap

The sound of footsteps faintly heard but everyone suddenly stayed silent. Out of the rumored thirteen beings, only one more person was left. The man who created the miracle of releasing them from an endless curse. The one they paid their utmost respect, his feat that roughly made them owe their lives to.

"Woah, everyone's here, even Jugen and Fenrir," said a voice from the double door.

Dubbed to be the Everlasting Genius, standing with his careless and easy-going vibe. Rising his hand he said, "Yo, how are you guys doing?"

"Alright, just take a seat, Lyon, we will begin the meeting," said Fei behind him.

Lyon chose to take the empty seat beside Jugen as he looked Fei with her CEO bearing.

With her hands placed on the table, she looked at them without any hint of fear and said, "Let's begin the meeting, of seizing Heaven's Dawn!" before making a smirk.
