Emperor's Reckoning

The looming shadows soon crept up and swallowed the unsuspecting cultivators below. They all turned their heads up before their eyes opened side. Flying with enough altitude, one could see the fluttering of the feathers with a squint of the eye. There was not enough amazement already until they saw the young man that stood above the huge bird's head. 

"Look up there! It's him!"

"No doubt about it, it's the young man!"

"Lyon Torga!"

The name had now brought fear and amazement hand in hand. Spread from mouths to mouths, his own reputation preceded him. They all took a glance at the walls. The poster of his bounty was being placed clearly in public places, in landmarks of their world. The Treas's influence was that great. Their connections were unimaginable. Yet. The young man that they wanted alive was something different.

A counter deal was made. A counter bounty existed. Though no experts would take the bounty seriously and cut off the Treas's head, the meaning behind the prize was what led them to think about the young man. The madlad purposely and deliberately trying to stomp the most influential family in the mortal world before their sword crossed. Some people might think it was a suicidal act. Those higher-ups knew the way of how Treas play their game. However, with the auction houses behind blown away one by one, they all had to turn their thoughts around.

"You all don't want to get on his bad side...."

"I saw it! I was there when it happened!"

"Even an Ascending God realm cultivator was nothing against his backing."

"However look! Don't you recognize some of those guys that stand behind him?!"

A golden hair starked the sky as his indomitable figure stood straight against the wind. The onlookers couldn't believe their eyes no matter how many he tried to rub them. That charismatic figure was standing behind that youth with his chest tight and his arms on his back.

"What the?! That's!"

"Impossible! He has woken up?!"

"That is Ayumu beside him! No doubt! No doubt! He has returned! Garuda has awakened!

They were in disbelief however, their thoughts didn't stop there. Once they saw that auburn hair fluttering about against the wind. Ther fear was on their toes. They couldn't even differentiate their feelings anymore. That woman was famed for its coldness and mostly isolate herself in that famous room, yet, the lady was out today, but not only that, she was actually standing right beside him.

"What the..."

"Isn't she also from Treas? Why are they..."

"Hmm... it seems the problem is more complicated than a simple offense."

The onlookers didn't understand the source of the conflict since everything was escalating so quickly for them to even begin with and they never thought that the problem would get this big with the young man actually making an alerting counter.

"The genius, Yunesia is also there..."

"Emperor Jin, Empress Priscila."

"The more I looked at it, the more vicious this group is. How can he summon such powerful beings as his backing?"

The people below could only stand in awe. Some of them wished to be that young man. Daring and dashing, even when facing such a monstrous family he didn't shed a single faze. Unbeknownst to Lyon, he had brought such various impressions toward the people.

"What are you thinking Lyon?" asked Cecile as she took a glance against her husband.

"Hmm, I find it weird that those experts stopped coming after me."

"What are you talking about, with these people behind your back, would they even think to step forward and revealed themselves?"

"I don't know, surely there is someone strong enough to test themselves against us, right? Any hidden experts? I thought the Treas was famed for its massive connectivity with powerful forces, but I guess there is no such thing."

Cecile shook her head with a smile, "You are thinking too lightly, the fools have had enough dead already, the individual experts will retract back once they saw us, our image is being spread as we speak, only experts belonging in some type of a group had the slight bravery to challenge us."

Lyon smirked, "Heh, then we might expect some grand festival when we arrived at their headquarter huh?"

"That's a given don't you think?"

Meanwhile, Ayumu was tugging her father's sleeve. 

"Hmm? What is it Ayumu?" asked Garuda before he saw her daughter pouting her lips. 

His eyes immediately softened. He knew her daughter was not the type to show her emotion easily. His vegetative state must have forced her to grow mature than she should. He wondered if its a good thing or not but he knew the answer won't matter. No matter what, she is still his daughter.

He put his palm over his head while slightly rubbing them, "Sorry, I guess I'm acting selfishly again."

He knew he had put up a lot of stress on his daughter. He was seen as unselfish and noble, however, his image from his own daughter's view definitely different. The more he remembered about it the sourer his heart become. (I have been too selfish, not against my people, but my own daughter).

However, Ayumu shook her head.

"No, father."

"Huh?"

"Have you not acted like the way you are now, I wouldn't believe that you are the real you. If you choose to stay and rest on your stinky bed, I would have tried to kill you since you must be possessed."

(K-Kill?! Okay, that choice of word is really sharp don't you think?!) thought Garuda as he smiled wryly. 

"But I'm glad, at least I can talk to you now," said Ayumu before she gave him a hug and buried her face toward his chest.

The gallant Garuda had his throat instantly turned hoarse. He felt his chest was getting drenched. No word was out of his lips as he embraced his daughter with both of their eyes tearing up.

Madoku couldn't help but let out a rare smile toward her best friend before looking at her own older sister. There was a magnitude of interest greater than ever in her eyes and her sight was landing on one young man that kept on breaking the norm.
