Emperor's Reckoning

Chapter 20: Mythical Being

The thick energies on Lyon's left hand was so thick that it would scare the leaders of the kingdom if they were to saw this.

Then with a wave of his hand the spell were written in the air in an instant.

"Forbidden Magic, Ragnarok Blast." chanted Lyon.

*Zing

The color of the spell was bright yellow. A level five Forbidden Magic.

*ZIng

A large yellow circle magic brand appeared facing the door.

*Zing

Then a smaller yellow circle magic brand appeared in front of the previous one.

*Zing

Then another one.

*Zing.

And another one.

*ZING

Then the final brand appeared.

*Creak

The largest yellow circle magic began to rotate.

*Creak

Then the next followed.

*Creak *Creak *Creak.

*ZZTTT *ZZTT

A ball was condensed in the middle of the largest brand magic, it was made out of world and heaven energies, and it's getting denser and denser.

Lyon then chuckled a little bit then said: "Eat this."

*snap

*SFWOOOSH

The condensed ball was shot to the door.

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

Back to the arena.

*quake

*quake

*quake

"Wha- what's going on?!" said a person.

"Ah-Ahh help me I'm swaying!" said another.

The crowd was in panic and shouting everywhere.

"Calm down people we the guards of Nostria will surely keep you safe." said a soldier.

*tap

*tap

A tall brown middle aged man with extraordinary beard came behind the soldier. He wore a special made armor for captain.

*pat

"Alright Lukas leave it to me." said the middle aged man.

"Wow really? Sure, go ahead Captain!" said Lukas.

The middle aged man was none other than Zusk.

*Ehem

"For those men who are still panic I will personally destroy the brothel!" shouted Zusk with domineering voice.

Black lines covered Lukas's face. (I- I shouldn't made captain calm th---- WHAT THE F*CK !! THE MEN CALMED DOWN!!)

"For those women who are still panic, I will personally write letter to General Fei to raise the groceries prices by 200% for the rest of the month."

Then despite the quake that happening, the crowd was really calm like it was another daily activities for them.

(Yeah right, like hell I would destroy the brothel, that was my life!! And also, I wouldn't dare to write letters to that general of mine, I would get demoted instead!) Then as he wanted to speak to Lukas he was surprised. Lukas seemed to be soulless right now.

"Oi- OI are you alright?!" said Zusk as he shake Lukas.

"I-I'm fine captain."

"Really? you looked really pale just now."

"It's alright." said Lukas (I-I ...*sigh I wonder if I have to start going to the brothel).

Meanwhile on each of the balcony, the leaders had grim face filled their charismatic face.

"Paladin, what do you think the quake was about?" said Folan.

"I personally have no idea your majesty. This had never happened before." said Paladin.

"Oh.." then Folan entered into deep thought.

On the other balcony.

"Hmm Orka do you know about the quake?" said Tunri.

"I can feel a tremendous magic being unleashed inside the labyrinth." said Orka cautiously.

Then Tunri slam his eyebrows together: "Since this 'tremendous' came from you, how tremendous is it in your opinion."

*sigh

"Not even my greatest defense spell could withstand such a force. Let's just say that if and I mean if we send all our army against it, at least half of it will be gone, and the rest will be injured. But don't worry most likely this kind of spell will take a lot of time to cast."

Then Tunri also entered into deep thought.

On Sylviana's balcony.

"I can only think of two possibilities about the culprit behind this." said Karina suddenly.

"What is it senior?" asked Fei while Sylviana also prepared her hear.

"One is that the guardian was strong enough it's attack could sway the entire labyrinth and affects our arena." then she took a deep breath and continued : "However sadly this probability had a ninety eight percent chance to be negated, this is because guardian will not attack if there were no candidates on their world, and if there were any candidates inside, it would likely on the 90th floor, but look, the dot on the 90th floor still exist. With that kind of attack, the candidate is sure to perish."

Then both Fei and Sylviana had entered deep thought.

Sylviana was the first to exit her trance, and asked: "Then.. what about the other possibility?"

Karina only smiled at her question.

Sylviana seemed to get the hint : "N-no way right ..." but only to see Karina nodded.

"But that's impossible right? I know he is the greatest genius but he is still too weak right now ... r-right?" asked Sylviana.

"Well ... If I never see him fight I would also not believe it. But that night ... I was in the event. Do you know why the bandits inside the forest are gone in the blink of an eye? There were no traces left."

"Is it ... him?" asked Sylviana nervously.

"Well I did killed the bandit leader and his left and right hand man. But at the time I get back to aid Lyon. The bandits are no where to be seen. Only vines protruding from the ground were left, however the vines seemed like they hold on something human-like size before it was empty air. As I arrived on the scene ... he was just standing there under the bask light of the moon." Of course Karina didn't tell them the event where Lyon suddenly stole her first kiss, but nevertheless it still made her blush thinking about it again.

*sigh

"A man like that would probably leave this kingdom in no time. This kingdom can't hold him." sighed Sylviana.

"Ohh what's this, so you actually want to hold him?" teased Karina.

"W-W-w ... Big sister you always bully me!" grunted Sylviana as she crossed her arm once again.

*pat

*pat

Karina patted Sylviana's head and said; "Hehehe you are so cute when you flustered."

Nobody found Karina's petting odd, she was already famous way before Sylviana took the throne.

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

*ping

A new yellow dot suddenly appeared on the monitor. Crux and the others had a frozen expression as they saw the location of the yellow dot.

It was on the 0th floor.

This left the people inside the arena discussed between themselves. The 0th level was never before appeared in the record of the labyrinth, this was the very first. They all thought that the deeper the candidates go, the closer they are to the truth about the labyrinth. But they were stupefied because the existence of the 0th level shouldn't be exist. There were no gates or doors or anything that leads to the 0th level from the 1st level.

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

The door opposite him got totally pulverized. Inside the door was a throne room adorned with red-golden curtain along the walls. Red carpet laid on the floor leading to the throne. Upon closer look, the walls were made of a strong material just like the door, but there were claw scratches. The floor was really crystal clean that one can see their own reflection.

Filled with doubt, Lyon walked forward to the throne. He put down his sword to the side of the throne and sat down while leaning his head to the right supported by his right hand. He totally looked like a badass with his disdainful expression.

"AAAHH it's not cool if there were no one to show off to!" shouted Lyon. His voice echoes in the room.

*Tap

*Tap

*Tap

Footsteps sound came from behind the throne. Lyon jumped in fright and quickly holding his sword to the source of the sound.

"Who goe-.. one,two,three,...,nine? nine tails?" gasped Lyon. The being in front of him had beauty that could kill a man with her wink. A mythical being nine-tailed Fox.
