Emperor's Reckoning

The dinner table was luckily enough could accommodate for ten people. With the help from the girls, Tiene managed to cook amazing dishes that wowed even Fenrir.

"Riku, are you going to attend the ascension this time?" asked Tiene.

"Hmm, I don't know yet, I'm still one level away from the requirement and I don't know when will I breakthrough," sighed Riku.

*munch

*munch

Fenrir ate his pile of meats like there was no tomorrow.

"Oh, if it's only one more level, I can help you with that," said Lyon in a leisurely manner.

The others were surprised at his statement, aiding someone reaching a breakthrough was really a rare thing to do. This was because they would need to give them their treasures a.k.a beads. A soul realm cultivator needed an exorbitant amount of medium beads and those beads were already rare in Deo.

"Really?" Riku's eyes were glimmering with hope as he looked at Lyon.

"Sure, no problem at all." nodded Lyon.

"Thank you, Lyon, if there is anything you need help with you can ask Yiaz," smiled Tiene.

"But-" said Yiaz.

"Right my husband?" smiled Tiene.

"R-right".

By this conversation, it was easily deduced who had the most power in this household.

(Mothers are really scary, *gulp, I wonder what heaven or hell awaits me) thought Lyon as he remembered about the girls he had a relationship with.

"By the way, when is this 'Ascension' gonna start," asked Lyon.

"It's two days from now," said Riku with a hint of a gloomy face.

"Hey, what you got to worry about, your master is here," said Ryona.

"What? you are my daughter's master?" said Yiaz.

"But you could be her older sister," gasped Tiene.

*ehem

"Let me reintroduce them."

"Ryona is my master with skilful abilities and she even surpassed your old master from the central region. Lyon is her boyfriend and Kyoko is her overseer.

"Luna is the only daughter from the Phantera Kingdom while Karina is the Golden Demoness from Nostria and Jugen is her little brother."

Hearing the true introduction from their daughter, they were surprised. Their daughter could actually make friends with important figures!

It usually took power to know someone with power, but her daughter must have stepped a dog shit luck to know these women. They still confused about Ryona and Lyon's relationship, why would a strong woman like that want someone with a mere peak elemental realm cultivator.

(I guess love is blind) thought both of them.

Of course, how could they know that Lyon was the man with the most talent? He had no knowledge about cultivation a month ago. Heck, it took him under five minutes to breakthrough from the third to peak elemental realm.

"Are you ready?" asked Lyon suddenly.

"Ready for what?" asked Riku.

"To breakthrough of course, what else?"

"Right here?" asked Riku.

"Yes, try to absorb the heaven and the world's energies."

Then Riku closed her eyes and started concentrating to absorb the heaven and world's energies. Soon, she felt a warm current of the energies, it was the purest of the purest form of energies.

Rumour said that even the top beads still have fifty percent impurity in their energies. This could only mean one thing, the energies she absorbed now belong to somebody. However, there were no records of someone cultivating using the energies from another cultivator.

*zing

It took no time for Riku to breakthrough, she even leapt three levels and entered the peak of the Soul Realm.

"Whoops, too much there haha," chuckled Lyon.

Yiaz and Tiene had their eyes bulging. It took them several years even with medium beads to leapt three levels of cultivation in the soul realm, but her daughter did it even before the foods got cold.

Riku took a deep breath and finally stabilized her realm. Once she opened her eyes, she noticed that her parents looked at her in disbelief.

"Is there something wrong with my face?" asked Riku.

Her question woke them up.

"Did you just breakthrough three times?" asked Yiaz.

"Yes I did and I already stabilized the realm," said Riku before continuing, "Thanks a bunch Lyon, if there is anything I could do, please ask."

"How about giving us a tour?"

"En!" Answered Riku, "Mom, Dad I'm giving my friends a tour."

*creak

Everybody left except Tiene and Yiaz.

Yiaz mouth was still opened and couldn't believe what just happened.

*sigh

"Looks like he is not a simple young man," said Yiaz.

"Please don't state the obvious," said Tiene as she began to wash the dishes.

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

The East region street was packed with peddlers and merchants, but none of the items could catch Lyon's group.

Instead, what Lyon's eyes caught was the peddlers and the merchants and last but not least the students. They were all beautiful women!

"Students, this is a very special event just right before the ascension so make sure you hear this clearly. With the entry fee of one hundred thousand golds you have the chance of earning this legendary sword!" said a man in front of the East region arena.

The legendary sword he mentioned was a red-blood coloured sword with weird runes engraved on its hilt.

"Don't worry, this is not a lottery type but instead you have to fight for it. Win the final round and this sword shall undoubtedly yours. This is a special competition when you reached the final round, you shall face our representative instead of other challenges. There are only twelve slots so better hurry up."

"Hehe, this type of thing is definitely a fraud right big brother?" asked Jugen.

*kaching!

.

.

The moment he said that Lyon was already giving the entry fee to the guy. Jugen was speechless but Lyon kept rubbing his hands with an evil grin.

Ryona, on the other hand, was excited to see Lyon in action again, the opponents this time most probably had a soul realm cultivation, a high one at that!

"The slots were all sold, I hereby declare the competition starts, the first battle is ...

Lyon vs Reka!"
