Chapter 151: Shall We Begin?

Name:Emperor's Reckoning Author:
The figure that rushed to the third floor revealed itself as Lyon and the princess's eyes couldn't help but open wide.

"A tail?"

The words escaped from Lyon's mouth without him even realizing it. His eyes scanned the figure that was probably only a meter and half max.

The little figure stood like a child but the bearing it had proved otherwise. Its face was cute, if it was a female then she was beautiful, if it was a male then it was also beautiful. It had two big round eyes that seemed to contain curiosity of a universe. Its white ears were standing straight like a rabbit, a perfect pair for her little nose and cute thin lips.

It had a black hair that was styled like a tomato, instead of weird, it brought about its cuteness to the next level. The completely black round tail of its wiggled with the slightest movement that exuded its innocence.

It wore a galaxy-black magician cloak that was adorned with little white spots that resembled a star in the universe which was harmonious with its pale-white complexion. The middle part of the cloak was bared as it revealed a tight vest that couldn't make Lyon guess its gender. To finish it up, it wore long pants with lace-up black boots with a few white furs circling around the edge of the hole where the feet went in.

"Ho~, What is it, young man? You are smitten by my beauty?" asked the little figure with a cute smirk as it put the nose higher as if looking down at Lyon.

Its question woke Lyon from his stupor as he shook his head. "I'm not into little kids, sorry, I don't even know if you are a male or female," said Lyon while waving his hand in denial.

Rowland instinctively took a step back as his expression stiffen. (Oh no! my store!).

The little figure made a fist with its little hands until crackling noise was clearly heard. Its little mouth twitched, as the figure said, "Little... kid... you say? I see I see, to think that the Alchemy Union's student forgot about their own elder's identity is quite vexing,"

*swoosh

Lyon's eyes turned sharp as a massive amount of mana swirling around the little figure's body as if protecting it. He instinctively took a step back as his hand covered Aelina that stood behind him.

"He~ looks like punishment is in order," smirked the little figure.

"Move back, Lyon!"

A shout came before two devastatingly beautiful figure appeared in front of him standing on guard. Lyon was surprised to see them both as he said weakly, "This is serious isn't it..., that kid is dangerous."

"Ho~, you have quite a companion there," said the little figure with undeniable arrogance. Normally, people would feel scared or suffocated upon the presence of Ryona alone, but not only Ryona was there, but even Kyoko was also present.

Lyon slowly moved back as he pushed the dumbfounded Aelina. The princess couldn't comprehend what's going on as too many thoughts run in her mind.

*flash

Lyon opened his eyes wide as Ryona only left an afterimage before disappearing from his sight. (Such speed!).

"Hoh~ not bad of a tactic, disrupt the mage before they cast magic, but..."

The little figure turned around,

*grab

"Huh?" Ryona was surprised as her ax was stopped by its little hand with ease while her body was still in midair.

(Impossible!) thought Lyon as he saw what's happening. He knew how strong Ryona was, especially with her ax, she could even perform those illustrious techniques with it.

Ryona furrowed her eyebrows while still in midair before her other hand swing the twins of the ax to the little figure.

The little figure smirked as she received the incoming ax with a palm.

"!!"

*flash

A black-colored magic brand appeared on the little figure's palm without even chanting it nor writing it down.

*boom

The ax was propelled to the window before landing on the empty streets, etched to the paving. Leaving a huge line of crack as a result.

Ryona watched her ax flew, before realizing that the little figure will soon attack her. She closed her eyes she steeled her entire body for the incoming strike.

"You are way too inexperienced in front of me," chuckled the little figure as it threw a punch.

"Huh?"

A magic brand appeared behind Ryona as something pulled her inside.

"Ryona, are you okay?" a voice made the little figure turned back before it smirked with a realization.

"Oh, hubby <3" said Ryona as she clung to Lyon's body behind Kyoko.

(Ah, this feels nice! but) thought Lyon before he said, "Let's focus on the matter at hand first, to think that you couldn't scratch that... um... that 'cute' thing."

"Hohoho~, did you just call me cute? You just reduce your punishment," said the little figure before continuing, "I see you are a space attribute cultivator, I wonder why you are here in this remote world."

Rowland and the princess were surprised too as they looked at the young man in the subject. Rowland thought that he was just a noble from somewhere, but to think that not only his alchemy was superb, he had a rare element of space.

The princess looked at the back of Lyon as she thought (Not only he could climb an impossible cliff with his finger, but he also has a rare attribute!). This made her wonder if Lyon was actually only playing around when he spared with her little sister Chloe.

"Don't worry, I'm excited to see the overseer in action," whispered Ryona to Lyon's ear as her gaze landed on the beautiful figure with the fox ears.

"You got a really nice eye there," said the little figure as it readied itself.

"I know," answered Kyoko cooly, before raising her right arm, revealing her snow-white complexion.

*swoosh

A storm like mana was crashing and surrounding her right arm before calming down and gathered on her hand. The little figure furrowed its eyebrows and squinted its eyes as a response.

Pulling it close to her divine face she said with a smile, "Shall we begin?"
