Emperor's Reckoning

"Your majesty, what is your decision," asked Grandmaster Poh with his arms hiding under those sleeves, trembling in excitement.

King Loewe took a deep breath before he looked at every one of them. Under those eyes, he knew their gaze resembled their personality. He felt a hint of pride as the leader of his subordinate, at the very least, if anything were to happen it won\'t happen from the inside.

"We must not act with haste," said King Loewe before he continued as he saw the red-haired Biarong was about to say something, "His identity is still unknown, we need to gather more info to determine the right assault."

Bairong already opened his arms before he folded it again. Though he was a hot-blooded fella, he was not ignorant. He won\'t even turn into an adult if he were that stupid.

"Know thy enemy, as the old saying goes," said King Loewe with a smile as he looked at Bairong who shook his head with a wry smile.

"So let\'s review a little bit here, Supreme Mage Daraoh if you please," said King Loewe as he sat down.

Supreme Mage Daraoh made a fake cough before he uttered his opinion, "Lyon Torga is without a doubt a human who possessed the blessing of a beast, though which beast is still unknown. I just traversed through our encyclopedia and found nothing with that characteristic of his."

"Hah, you might be sleeping on a page or something," jested Mara as he crossed his leg.

Supreme Mage Daraoh only took a glance before continuing, "Since the mirror was broken, we don\'t have any more concrete evidence besides our scapegoat\'s reports, since that is so, I couldn\'t find anything more significant other than he could trace anti-mana."

"I see," sighed King Loewe before Supreme Mage Daraoh continued, "However, there was something that indeed bothered me."

All attention immediately landed on Supreme Mage Daraoh\'s figure before he said, "In the report over here, he said that the transformation left a bright tattoo on Lyon Torga\'s back, written in a language the scapegoat couldn\'t read nor did he remembered how it was drawn. He obviously refrained from explaining that to us since we would absolutely scold him."

Gutee and Bairong took a smirk before being followed by the others, however, King Loewe opened his eyes wide before Grandmaster Poh asked him what\'s wrong.

"Ah, it\'s nothing," said King Loewe with a smile before he let Supreme Mage Daraoh continued his analysis.

Unbeknownst to the others, he was making a conversation with the entity inside of him.

"Are you sure?" asked King Loewe.

"Yes, there exists a transformation of legend, a power beyond a blessing. I never thought someone in this world would manage to pull it off," said the entity.

"You better be careful now, this Lyon Torga is not just anybody you would find on the street."

King Loewe gulped before he nodded.

"Daraoh, we still have a huge advantage over him you know," said Mara lazily.

Daraoh nodded, "Of course I know that."

"What advantage?" asked Bairong to Daraoh\'s sigh.

"We know who he is, but he doesn\'t know who or where or even what we are," explained Supreme Mage Daraoh.

Gutee nodded, "That is a very big advantage indeed, use it well and we may not even lift a finger to get rid of him."

"Not only that," said Supreme Mage Daraoh before he continued, "He knew there was something that wanted to disrupt the peace on the island, like putting oil on a flaming fire, however, the public won\'t side with him that easily since from their point of view he was killing the host of our pendant."

King Loewe sighed, "The severing ties of an incomplete anti-mana spell with mana to the soul would result in wounding it so much that it would gradually kill her from inside. Her body would remain intact perfectly but her soul would slowly rot."

He shook his head, "Such a cruel way to die, not to mention for a young demi-human like her. At times like this, I always have a sour heart."

"You did nothing wrong your majesty," said Grandmaster Poh before he continued, "It is the duty of the king to bear the sin for the greater picture."

"Forget all that, don\'t you think that this is the perfect time to strike," said Mara before he stood up.

"With the people trying to lynch him, we could take the advantage of this and gain the favor of the demi-human instead," continued Mara.

"You mean to kill him, torture him in front of the masses? To build, a new relationship with the demi-humans through, his death?" said Gutee before Mara nodded, "Exactly."

"Your majesty, what do you think?" asked Bairong.

King Loewe rubbed his chin, "It is indeed would be the opposite of our original plan, but the goal is still the same. Alright, we will make an organized team for this."

"Tch," Bairong was displeased. He was hoping to have a great fight but it seemed that it won\'t happen.

King Loewe chuckled, "The day will come when you will meet an opponent that is right for you, your Lue and Rue need to be patient a little bit more."

He approached his shoulder to pat him before a blinding light that shook the heaven pierced through the sky from afar. The whole building slowly lit up before all the six superiors instinctively closed their eyes. The wyverns started to fly against the direction their rider was heading while some others tried to calm their beasts. The army on the land could only close their eyes as they readied their battle stances. Though they were blinded for a moment, they must protect their superiors.

"You haven\'t even reached the peak of your beauty yet! Do you think I would let death get ahead of me? Hah!"
