Emperor's Reckoning

Karina knew if that Feliric dared to touch her, he would die right there and then. That was because she could sense the deadly intent released from Lyon's body as he watched him exit the hall.

"Well, what did you two talk about?" asked Karina. Of course, she was referring to the head of the clan.

"Yes, I was about to tell you that, it's better if we get inside first," said Lyon as the both of them entered the room.

After locking the door, he began to narrate them what was going on about the 'legion'. All of them had different expressions regarding the topic. There were those who didn't know anything about it like Ryona, Karina, Jugen, Kyoko, Riku, and her parents. Luna, however, had a sort of thinking on her head which caught Lyon's attention.

"Luna do you have something in mind?" asked Lyon. He knew that this girl had wide connections and very acute among the girls he had known so far.

"Yes, regarding the matter of the 'legion' my father also did research about it years ago," said Luna as her hand was supporting her chin. "According to my father, the 'legion' was somewhat a new group that rose without a warning or anything. It just suddenly exist and invites promising cultivators to join their banner with mouth-watering offers,"

Luna contemplated a little while before she seemed to remember something. "Oh yeah, my uncle found something interesting regarding the 'legion' in one of his travels."

As everyone's vision fell on to Luna she continued, "Their movements lately were pretty direct and open. There were a bunch of people who just revealed themselves to be part of the 'legion' and raid a tomb of powerful cultivators at the Divine Realm and keep the treasures for themselves rather than submit it to their recruiter,"

This was an odd occurrence since usually, a group like this would submit their treasures to the ones that had the upper rank. Meanwhile, the low ranked ones would be bestowed gifts by the said upper rank, at least that was it for a clan.

Since they kept their own treasures, their goals became more and more unclear. Was it power? Was it wealth? Nobody knew.

"My guess is this group made from other worlds, most possibly a higher one than Deo," stated Lyon after he contemplated for a while. "Since the current situation is unknown it's better to stay away from the 'legion' for the time being."

The girls looked at him with a confused gaze which made Lyon a little bit uncomfortable. "W-what is it?" asked him.

"To think that someone like you would be uttering such words," said Karina with a slight ridicule.

"Yeah, it really is something," nodded Luna.

Kyoko had no comments but she clearly chuckled under her sleeves.

"W-who do you think I am?" said Lyon trying to defend his pride.

"Pervert!" said Luna without holding back.

"Lecher!" said Karina with a chuckle.

"My hubby <3 !" said Ryona.

"Super lecher!" said both Biane and Clemora on their bed.

Every answer was like a sword piercing through his heart, except for Ryona of course. (I mean, what in the f*ck is super lecher even mean?!).

Cupping his hands he said, "Ladies, please, this noble one is a saint with the heart of gold, I aid those who are in need or those who want to breed-...Uh- I meant 'to read'. Isn't that right Fenrir?"

Fenrir snuggled out from his clothes and made his way up to Lyon's shoulder. However, the answer Lyon sought didn't appear after quite some time, so Lyon whispered something under the ladies eyes. (If you agree, there will be chopped lamb for dinner).

"Wuwuwuwu ..." Fenrir immediately responded to Lyon's earlier question by nodding his head and wagging his cute tail.

The ladies had black lines covering their head, (This is just downright shameless) thought all of them.

"See even the pure Fenrir agreed with me, so it must be true," laughed Lyon with a long nose. Seeing his smug face the ladies chose to not dwell on the topic any further.

After laughing until he was tired, Lyon began to do what he originally intended to do. With the abundant energies, the spell was chanted. The three women were enveloped in a bright blue colored magic brand as their bruises were rapidly healing in naked eyes.

The spell Lyon used was to enhance one's regeneration capability by many folds so that it appeared that the magic almost instantly wiped off the bruises. But magic could only do so much, in case if there was a poison inside someone's body or a parasite, magic couldn't do much help.

As the magic brands started to dissipate slowly, the three of them healed most of their wounds. However, since the magic was to accelerate the regeneration, their fatigue was even worse than before. The moment the brands dissipated completely, the three of them instantly fell into a deep slumber.

Although the spell was rare among the supporting type, Yiaz and Tiene didn't dare to inquire about it. In their minds as long as their daughter was safe, all other things didn't matter.

(Oh, right I forgot, I'm about to ask regarding Biane and Clemora's status, but I guess it's too late now) thought Lyon as he was watching them sleep like a baby.

Lyon decided to take a stroll once more in the market, but this time he was accompanied by Jugen. Since street vendors were forbidden, only official stores could attract the tourists. Lyon started to go to antique stores, but none of them could catch his eyes.

There was one antique store that caught his attention. Compared to other stores this one was a standout on its own. The building looked like it was surviving a disaster as the woods were all old and chipped off. It was more like a haunted house rather than an antique store.

With every step, Lyon made the platform 'squeak' a little. Despite so, he bravely continued onward along with Jugen who could piss at any moment.

The items inside the store were placed neatly on a table and side tables, but there was one thing that bothers Lyon. It was not the sleeping old man at the end of the room, but the items were all chipped or broken!
