Emperor's Reckoning

In the North City, East City, and South City. The prominent Crown winners looked at the sky with their eyebrows furrowed. Kaiju Loh couldn\'t keep his mouth shut as he looked at the horizon as the phenomenon evoked. The shimmering golden light was crawling on his face as his pupils shrunken.

  "The Heaven couldn\'t have prepared themselves for this. The return of Lyon Torga!"

A piercing light suddenly hit the sea and illuminated the night in a flash before a huge brittle of stars falling down could be seen from any direction of the city. The infinite stars suddenly halted in midair before a string of light connected each other under the naked eyes of the onlookers. The streak was reflected on the eyes of the lady in front of Sophia as her lips smiled wider and wider each time the stars connected themselves.

Finally the last streak of light connected to the last star. A giant hollow figure could be seen floating above the sea. It was a figure of a man of infinite charm. His hair was fluttering and he appeared to be topless with his abdominal muscles were clearly defined. There were a pair of bracelets on his wrists and a pair of earrings on his ears. Twelve names were written on his back before he crossed his arms and slightly lean back as with his right leg cross above the left knee.

"Ah~"

The lady in front of Sophia clasped her hands together as she saw the giant figure in the sky.

"E-Empress, is that..."

"En! That giant hollow figure made of stars is none other than."

"Lyon," Luna muttered in the East City as she looked at the giant figure. Her eyes were glimmering with awe as she looked at it. She gulped, "That\'s, you, isn\'t it. Is this you in the future or... is this you in the past?"

"Hubby?... That looks like him, wow... he is really hot <3" said Ryona the bravest of the bunch before she looked at Kyoko who was biting her lower lips. The former raised one of her eyebrows before she cheekily tugged her arm.

"Overseer, are you hungry?" she swung her eyebrows up and down with an apparent tease on her eyes. 

"Eh? What? No, I\'m still full," answered Kyoko with a startle on her end.

"Hmm... you and I know I\'m not talking about food."

Kyoko suddenly pulled her ear with her screaming in pain as she muttered, "Alright, enough of this nonsense, he is our savior."

"Okay, okay, it hurts, please let go," she begged.

Biane and Clemora both looked at each other with blushes on her cheeks apparent before they dug down the food with a cute peeking between the bites. Meanwhile, Aleina looked at the huge figure with her mouth opened. She couldn\'t believe that this was the same person that sent her a vulgar letter and a stroll in her own empire. He was in her reach then, but now he seemed quite far away.

"Woo! Damn!"

Jugen shouted with Fenrir sitting on top of his head. There was a weird similarity between the two before Karina chuckled at their antics as she too took a glance at the one student from her class that she would never allow graduating.

"Miss, are you sure you are not going with the rest of the group? You are so antisocial despite being a queen," Fei chuckled as she looked at her master sitting and drinking tea while keep peeking at the huge figure.

Sylviana furrowed her eyebrows but she kept drinking the tea as the blush on her cheeks was half-covered by the cup.

Fei let out a sigh, "You were the first in line but Luna finished first."

BRUUU!

She spat out her drinks as Fei chuckled.

"Who the hell is that?"

Kaiju muttered as he was amongst the onlookers level right now.

Meanwhile in the North City. The young man that evoked the resonance looked at the giant figure with furrowed eyebrows. He now knew that the path to the Throne will not be smooth sailing for sure.

"To think that someone would evoke this kind of phenomenon... if I remember correctly the last one that did it was."

"Empress herself," the woman in South City muttered before she continued, "To think that someone else could content with her and they live at the same time frame! My, the world will be in turmoil right now. A person that could match the Empress\'s talent had born after all and he is a man!"

Meanwhile, the true Lyon in West City opened his eyes wide before he slowly opened his arms. There was a very warm familiarity between him and the huge figure.

"That\'s... me..."

He knew for sure that it was him. It was the previous Lyon Torga. The past life he had not remembered yet.

Ayuku was out of words, even Madoka raised her eyebrows over this one as it alternated between her and her other personality Madoku. 

Lumina\'s eyes were glimmering as she looked at the huge figure. Her hearts were filled with a bowl of regret as she saw the other version of him. It was the figure that she could have been with if she chose to venture outside the world and went to find him instead of sitting on the island where they met for countless years. However, she darted her glance at the young man standing in front of the huge ashen bell before she smiled. Now he was within her reach, now she won\'t let a chance go anymore, especially after the eternal pleasure that could make a dragon went limp. She immediately went blush and looked down before Tuey\'s confused blinking expression whilst looking at her sudden reaction.

The huge figure suddenly opened his arms as he made an iconic smirk before he set his back straight. He blinked his eyes before he looked at the woman in the Center City standing behind the broken window with a smile before the latter smiled back with a tear in her eye. He slightly raised his arm before he snapped his finger.

The wind instantly changed course but nothing came out of it before the huge figure gradually dissipated from the bottom of his feet like a cloud of dust. He nodded against the woman before the huge figure dissipated for good.

Sophia could see that her shoulders looked colder than before as soon as the huge figure disappeared. She about to open a word before her eyes opened wide.

THUMP!

Her heart was thumping a single thump that stretched its maximum capacity where if it were to be put a little more force, it would surely explode. However, she was not the only one that felt it. The entire Crown winner across the sea felt the same reaction. The phenomenon was not over yet.

BOOM!

"Ah?!"

"NGh!"

"WHA?!"

The post-phenomenon only happened in three seconds yet those three seconds were immortalized in their minds as all of them gaped their mouths and turned mute at the sight. The story will be passed down from generation to generation.

"Heh."

Lyon smirked before he put his hands inside his pockets and turned around. He went down the stairs as the onlookers were still frozen in awe.

Lyon Torga, the man who successfully made the perfect resonance with the evoked phenomenon that rivaled the Empress. He also made the night turned into that of a day for three seconds. For three seconds, the sun was up in the sky with the moon forming a forced eclipse before it reset back to normal after three seconds. A feat of changing the world as he saw fit. 

The woman in front of Sophia shook her head. She knew something like this would happen. 

"I\'ve been your wife for a lifetime before, I know you wouldn\'t leave us hanging with just your image... but I guess, everything will be overboard if you do it huh. If you don\'t stop this act of yours they would notice, but heck. I know you won\'t stop, after all, this is one of the reasons why we were together before."

DING!

She flicked an item with her thumb before it spun in the air and fell on her palm. The shimmering light of the moon reflected the letter C engraved on the platinum ring while the letter L was reflected on the ring that she wore.

"Now then! The ceremony of The Throne is over! It\'s time for the real competition to start! Let the stairs leading to the Throne assembled!"

Cecile crossed her arms as her hair fluttered.
