Emperor's Reckoning

"With no special talent or affinity, you decide to learn everything instead," said Shen.

"It was the wrong way of cultivating but seeing how earnest you were when you were seven years old, us twelve divert a way for you to cultivate everything."

"But alas, it still fails, after several more years, you were a fine young man, by this time we were training in another world, peeking, sneaking etc.

"But you still stuck on the peak of heaven realm, since you learnt everything, you need to comprehend every element to gain access to the elemental realm. Thus we knew it was time to let you go venture yourself.

"Then long after you were gone, it might be centuries or even more than a millennia-long, we received a grievous news," Shen took a deep breath as fury capable of swallowing the heaven itself reflected on his eyes.

"You were dead."

"I-I'm dead?" asked Lyon.

"That's right, you were dead."

"We quickly rushed to the world you were in, there were three girls, sobbing around your dead body. We thought they were your killer until we saw the rings on their finger. We asked them who the killer was, but they also didn't know in detail, they only saw a group of shadows"

"Seeing your lifeless and soulless body our rage couldn't be contained anymore, us twelve ended up ending the world itself, but we knew it won't bring you back," sighed Shen.

"Then we decided to cheat the heaven itself, we used a rebirth technique on you and the three girls and it came with a price of our celestial bodies. We hoped that upon your rebirth, you will be blessed with all of our talent combined!"

"From that moment on, we promised to split from each other in the hope of finding you since we didn't know how long it would take for you or the three girls to rebirth, and among the twelve I got lucky."

*bang

Lyon quickly knelt down, "I might forget anything you teach right now or about you at all, please teach me again!"

Seeing Lyon knelt, he remembered a certain event of the past. It was the same mimic.

"Please teach me, teach me, teacher Long!" nagged the young boy.

"Hahaha, not until you can touch my whiskers!"

"But that's not fair, you can fly!"

"Deal or no deal." teased the dragon.

Then the young boy and the true dragon ran around playing tag.

"Anytime kid," said Shen with the same tender loving gaze.

Lyon's eyes slowly opened and he saw no one else was in the chamber. He gazed into the window and saw the falling snow. He approached the window and noticed that he was only covered by a blanket. (This is most definitely Ryona's doing!), thought Lyon.

*sigh

He let go of the blanket and watched the falling snow, (Who am I exactly, nggh? tears? ... I guess my body, ... no, my soul subconsciously remember.) sighed

*creak

"Not this shit again," whispered Lyon, "Here look, lo-" as Lyon turned around he was stupefied as it was Anskar, Leyna and Luna staring at him.

.

.

.

If there was a hole nearby he would probably jump in right now.

(Stay cool, stay cool)

Lyon slowly covered his body with a blanket, and sit down on a chair, "What do I deserve to receive this honour?"

*ehem

"We would like to thank you for your aid, during the incident in the arena and of course for reviving my wife," said Anskar.

Luna, on the other hand, was still red as a tomato, (What is that hanging between Lyon's leg? a tail? that's a really weird tail, but why do I feel embarrassed). Luna still stole a glance to look at Lyon but shied away when Lyon looked back.

Leyna noticed her daughter's reaction and could only sigh, looks like her husband didn't teach her anything regarding a male.

"Oh that's fine, no need to thank you at all," said Lyon before drinking a nearby wine.

*clap

"So mister saviour, when are you going to marry my daughter?" said Leyna full of smiles.

*Blurgggh

Lyon sprayed the wine in his mouth.

"M-m-marry?!" Anskar was also surprised.

"Yes that's right, you don't have any objection right?" Leyna was still full of smiles but, to Anskar it was like the smile of a devil.

"Y-y-yes."

*tap

*tap

"My daughter told me some interesting event she had with you in the bathroom inside the academy," whispered Leyna.

*gulp

"If you don't want to become a eunuch mister saviour, you better call me mother from now on."

*gulp

"M-m-mother," said Lyon nervously.

"Good, good, that's my son in law."

.

.

"But I can't marry her right now, I'm sorry, there are still a lot of things I need to do, besides, I'm still nineteen this year," said Lyon trying to calm down, "After everything is done, I promise I will come back to take your daughter's hand."

.

.

"Mother! Please don't force him to make a decision," said Luna,

"Oh my, my little daughter had truly been smitten by you," sighed Leyna

"Mother!"

"Alright, alright I will stop teasing you <3," said Leyna.

.

.

"Luna why don't you take Lyon and his friends, to the Undine Lake?" said Leyna.

"Y-yes mother."

"That's where your father and I had our first date, aw the memories," said Leyna while holding her cheeks.

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

The Undine Lake was really nature's masterpiece. The water was so clear and fresh that one could see the bottom of it. It was a favourite picnic spot for the people even from outside the kingdom. Legend said that this lake was once full of sand, and not water. The one who changed it all was a being called Undine.

Undine was never spotted in the last thousand years in Deo, either they migrate themselves or just hiding from the world nobody knows. There was only a record of Undine drawing inside the book in the library.

Even though the Phantera Kingdom had snow falling to the ground.. The Undine Lake was not affected at all, it still had a warm environment and crystal clear water.
