Chapter 339: He is Here!

"Hooo~"

Ayuku and Madoku heard footsteps approaching them before they glanced over only to see an old man was smiling with his hands behind his back. Madoku was quite skeptical about the figure in front of her but her friend's pupils had shrunken at the sight of this same figure. 

Ayuku gulped as she saw him going past them with a nod before looking at the young man that was crossing his arms against the huge ashen bell. The air felt heavy as she could only lower her head with sweat profusely producing on her forehead. There was nothing that could have prepared her for this.

Madoku furrowed her eyebrows before Ayuku suddenly stuttered, "S-Sir, do, do you remember me?"

"Hmm??"

The old man turned around before he slightly furrowed his eyebrows and squinted his eyes while he was taking a glance against her.

"Hmm... Hahahha! I forgot! Who might you be little missy?"

Madoku's eyebrows were twitching but Ayuku could only smile with wry. The latter slightly bowed as her figure couldn't hide her rigidness. It was the first time since forever that Madoku saw her behaved like that. 

"I-It's me, Ayuku. Garuda's Daughter, Ayuku."

The old man raised his eyebrows, "Oh! You've grown taller, I almost didn't recognize you, hahaha! How's your old man?"

(You totally forgot about her though) thought Madoku before Ayuku replied, "He is still trying to recover from the recent injuries."

The old man nodded as he is eyes turned mellow. The concern on his face was apparent before he let out a sigh. "Hmm, I hope you can find a good physician to cure him."

Ayuku nodded with a smile before she looked down in dismay.

"Fusya! Fusya fusya fusya!"

"Wh-what?"

Madoku and Ayuku was slightly startled before a huge lizard went past them

The huge pink salamander suddenly approached the old man before it stood on two legs as it watched the young man standing in front of the huge ashen bell with a gleam in his eyes. 

"Fusya..."

Fusya tried to cross its two legs just like how Lyon did with his arms but they were too short to do so. Nevertheless, Fusya tried to make an effort of smirking too. 

"Fusya!"

"You look really excited when he came. Huh?! Why are they all on the flo—, oh, I understand."

A little girl with dog ears walked past them before she looked at Lyon who was at the top of the stairs.

"It's starting."

Madoku and Ayuku glanced over to see Lumina already in her swordswoman robe even though there was no sword on her waist. Her jade hair fluttered as she walked past them. The bearing in the way that she walked was apparent and brought about awe. Her famed eyes turned sharp as her nose slightly twitched. With her bloodline, she was ahead of the others when detecting mana.

The shimmering dusk that marked the end of the day was letting out one final flash of green light before the sky was replaced with stars and silent clouds. The sea was dancing before it gradually changed course as if something was pulling them in. 

All the surrounding experts and elders noticed the change as well as some of the Crown Winners, especially the ones in another city, that managed to evoke a resonance to the others.

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

North City.

The man that made the resonance looked in the recently evening sky as he became uneasy despite the cheers from the onlookers. His eyes saw nothing but his entire body sensed something. He glanced at the huge ashen bell as if he was waiting for something.

"The sun has set but the one rising is not the moon it seems."

He darted his glance to the west.

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

South City.

The woman who made the resonance with her magic furrowed her eyebrows before she too glanced at the sky. The uneasiness in her heart was apparent.

"What is this?! What is this presence that's looming?!"

She opened her eyes wide before she turned around and looked in the west direction.

"Looks like there is a hidden dragon among us, I thought that there would only be Kaiju to be wary about."

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

East City.

Kaiju was still annoyed to think that he actually got competitors in the tournament. With his hands inside his pocket, he stepped down before approaching Luna once more. This time he didn't hide his hideous expression as his figure towering her. 

He smirked, "Can your boyfriend do that?"

Luna smirked, "You might be Heaven's Son but you are still not an emperor."

"What?"

Kaiju furrowed his eyebrows before his senses made his pupils shrunk. He finally felt it, an uneasiness, he darted his glance to the evening sky and the clouds were clearly being pulled toward the west.

"Wu wu wu, Auuuuuuuu!"

Fenrir suddenly howled toward the sky in the west direction. Though his body was small the howl was heard throughout the city. 

"Honestly, this unique feeling, it only reminds me of someone."

Kyoko shook her head as she puter her arms under her breast and looked in the west direction with her red-eye gaze deep.

Ryona opened her eyes wide before she realized what the overseer meant, "It's hubby! It's hubby right?!"

Karina glanced at the west with a smile but a hint of mellow in her eyes since she couldn't feel a thing in the movement of mana surrounding the world.

"That guy, what can't he do," Biane shook her head before she took a drink.

"Losing, apparently," chuckled Clemora.

Kaiju was further annoyed that these beauties were blindingly supporting this young man that didn't even make the cut to be in the Top Boards. 

"How, can you be so sure?!"

Luna smirked, "I'm really sure of course since I am his woman after all."

Kaiju looked at her eyes in disbelief. His mouth was gaping for a second before he gritted his teeth. The reason that coming out of her mouth was ridiculous for him to digest. Being the person that was adored since he was a child, Kaiju couldn't take it when others praise someone else other than him.

"Tch! Just you see!"

Kaiju turned around and walked up the stairs once more before he punched the huge ashen bell under everyone's eyes. The onlookers were a bit surprised before his phenomenon was again evoked, but nothing's changed. It was the exact same thing too with the resonances in the South and North City. He started to sweat not because he was tired but because he felt something was about to outdone what he did.

The group didn't give a single glance at Kaiju Loh. Kyoko smiled before she muttered, "What a wondrous flow, they are literally dancing as they swim to the horizon."

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

Lyon looked at his right palm before his fingers slowly buried deep in it. The veins in his wrist and the ones that coiled around his forearms to his bicep were visible even for the regular onlookers. Their hearts were thumping with excitement as they forgot how to blink their eyes even when the gale of wind directly hit them.

Mana surrounding the world slowly gathered on his entire right arm to the point that it started to glow.

The old man shook his head watching the event unfold, "If I tell this to that old bones, he would have called me crazy."

Ayuku gulped at the sight as her lips quivered, "Amazing..."

"Amazing?! This is impossible! How can he with a cultivation level that low could handle that massive mana condensing around his arm without exploding its channels?!"

Madoku couldn't help but exclaimed her opinion at the sight. She had never seen someone breaking the norm to that extent before. 

"He is trying to challenge himself."

Lumina smiled as she saw her man's expression. She knew it so because it was the same thing she felt when she fought him above the broken cave.

"Now then...."

His hair fluttered not against the wind but against his own aura as the dust slowly risen from the ground. He pulled his right arm before he muttered, "Are you ready for this? Heaven!"

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

Center City.

The woman in front of Sophia suddenly stood up as she crossed her arms. Her lips stretched to one side while a little to the opposite.

Sophie who looked at her got instantly reminded of a certain individual whose image was generated on top of the flyer on the desk. The latter suddenly nodded up.

Bang!

The huge window instantly blew up into pieces under Sophie's disbelieving eyes. The gale immediately entered the room as both of their hair fluttered against it. The window was not made from cheap and weak materials but the lady in front of her didn't even touch it before it broke. She didn't have time to even sing praises for her feat before the lady said.

"Take a good long look, Sophia! You are about to see, what kind of man my husband is!"
