Emperor's Reckoning

Chapter 211 - I Would Love To

The lady furrowed her eyebrows, she knew from his tone that he wasn't lying about it. However, it meant nothing for her if he knew the feeling or not. Gritting her teeth, she said, "That's enough, stop involving yourself with my family!"

The true dragon kept silent as she was right. He had no obligation nor right to interfere with their family matters. But the thing was, his grandson would interfere no matter what.

"Let her see the world or forever shall she be weak," said Grandpa Long.

"What do you know?! She can train here all the time, I'm more than capable of providing her than what this world can!"

She was confident that this small and weak world was nothing compared to what she had. She could pick the stars and the moon for her. Her strength was enough to rule this whole continent including the endless seas.

"True, what you are saying is indeed true, you can provide her with lots of grandeur thing that this world can't offer."

Her breathing became calm as she heard his opinion. She felt relief that her view was also right from others' perspectives.

"But there are things that this world can give the little girl that you can't."

Her eyebrows furrowed once again as she berated him, "Then tell me? What is it that I can't but this little world can?"

"Companion, friends, life, hardships, love, disappointment, curiosity, the list goes on. I mean, you are an undine, so it is in your nature to have curiosity."

The lady was a bit surprise for the true dragon to identify her race in a casual sentence. Undine was a race famed for its high affinity toward the water element. The fact that their home was already underwater meant that he was in her territory. However, despite being a corporeal body that contained no significant strength within, he was calm toward the situation.

"Mother, it is true, I want to venture the world, I want to experience what it's like out there," said Elize.

"So please, for this birthday's gift,"

(No, don't say it) thought her mother as she took a step back, not daring to hear what she would wish for her gift.

Elize held her hand against her chest as her eyes turned sharp and looked at her mother in the eyes. "Lift my curse."

Her mother immediately shook her head, "No, I cannot do that, don't you realize that we are still being hunted by your father's killer?"

Every time she mentioned about her husband, her heart ached. She already lost the love of her life, she didn't want to lose her only child.

"I know that, but, but I too don't want to live in hiding! I know my wish is selfish, but I can assure you that I will survive the harsh world."

"What makes you think-?!" her eyes flashed as she felt a familiar dreadful presence.

"Hohoho looks like we have an uninvited guest," said Grandpa Long as he glanced upward.

On the surface of the water, a man was flying in the air as he casually looked downward. He furrowed his eyebrow before he muttered with a smile, "To think that the fortuneteller is right, what an unbelievable being the star element cultivator is."

"Finally after all these years of chasing, I will be the one to finish the job."

Back inside the little home, Elize was crouching under the table by her mother's instruction. She watched her mother opening the door before leaving her a message, "No matter what, don't you dare to go outside the house."

The true dragon casually kept Elize company before she desperately asks, "G-Grandpa, Mother is going to be alright right?"

With his long whiskers waving the world he answered, "Back in my peak, not even the combination of both of them could match against three of my fingers, hahaha."

"C'mon grandpa, stop joking around!"

"Hahaha, it's okay, she'll be fine, she might felt pain during the fight but she will be alive."

The man in the air smirked as a figure flew out from below.

"Is it me or are you getting more beautiful by the years, Felicia?" teased the man.

Felicia turned a blind eye toward his teasing and said, "To think that you could even find me in this remote place, such dedication."

The man opened his arms as he said, "You flattered me, but I could find you only because I paid a huge price for a certain service of a certain fortuneteller."

"Then I must give that person a piece of my mind," said Felicia.

"Hahaha, if only you survive this day!" said the man as he plunged forward.

Felicia smirked, "Ignorant fool."

She whipped her hand upward as the lake suddenly blasted a pillar of water toward her enemy.

"Guha!" the man spat out blood as he was propelled upward further to the sky before the pillar came back to the lake.

Though the man fell he managed to stop himself from entering the lake. He knew that once he was inside the lake, his life would undoubtedly be in danger.

"You are feisty as always," said the man wiping the blood on his mouth.

The woman smirked before she clasped her hands together before slowly pulled them apart. The man opened his eyes wide as he saw the complicated rainbow magic brand between her hands.

Those beautiful forearms were full of revealing veins as she gritted her teeth, struggling, to sustain the great force within the magic brand.

The man gulped at the sight before he glanced at his right and left. The water in the lake was all surging from random points and gather at the center of that small complicated magic brand.

His clothes were fluttering despite the wetness, his eyes turned to awe before he heard the cry of a spell.

"You think you can disrupt my peace?! Sacred Magic! Trident's Howl!"

"You bitc!" he couldn't finish his word before the magic brand released its might. The water was surging like a jet toward his figure and further to the edge of the horizon.

-----------

The Phantera Kingdom.

*splash

Suddenly the citizen was wetted by something from the sky. They all looked upward before tumbling down. "Oh god."

The jet pillar further went to the east, leaving its trail on the ground.

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

The Luderia Kingdom.

The students just arrived at the gate before the pillar of water went passed by them in the sky and further to the endless sea.

"W-what was that?!" Jugen shouted out of his heart.

He was not the only one to scream like that. The citizen of Luderia also wondered the same thing.

Argeon furrowed his eyebrows as he looked at the direction it was coming from.

Xiaxia approached Luna before she muttered softly, "Luna, that direction is."

Luna nodded, "Don't worry he'll be fine."

She tightened her reign as she signaled the others to continue the journey. (Knowing you, I know you will be fine).

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

Back at the Undine Lake. The lake now had half of the water than it should be.

Felicia was panting as she just released a huge amount of mana. Though she was sweating like she took a bath, she smiled, "It's over, at least for now."

"Hahaha, you wish bitch! Now die!" shouted the man behind her. He had lost his right arm and right leg due to not effectively dodge the sudden attack.

She immediately opened her eyes and turned back, however it was too late. Time seemed to slow down as her life flashed by. When she was a child, when she fell in love, when she had grown up, tears couldn't help but escaped the edges of her eyes.

(Elize, sorry I can't accompany you anymore) thought Felicia as she closed her eyes.

Suddenly she felt a hand touching her right shoulder, dragging her backward. "Ah, husband, did you come to pick me up?"

"Well, I would love to become your husband, but first!"

Felicia opened her eyes wide as she managed to see a glimpse of her husband's back silhouette before entering the magic brand she was dragged to.

The man opened his eyes wide as he saw the smile of a young man, "You son of a bitch who-!"

"Shut up crippled old man!"

*boom

His face bent down along with Lyon's scally fist, sending both of them to the water below.
