EMPEROR'S RECKONING

Chapter 257: A Warning



Chapter 257: A Warning

It was a bold declaration. Not to mention the man in front of him but both ladies on her side was startled by her sudden mention of her latter status.

"Ack!" Ryona yelped before he grabbed Karina by the collar, "Karina you bastard! Because of you, she had a huge start and leave us by a whole mountain!

"St-stop shaking me! And what do you mean by us?! We are just a teacher and a student mind you."

Ryona let go of the collar before she took a step back and turned her face away from her. "Hah! You only say that because you love those forbidden love tales!"

"H-huh? W-what do you mean?" Karina immediately tried to look away from the prying eyes. They could see a hint of red hue on her cheeks as she nervously tried to calm her fidgeting lips.

Ryona suddenly clasped her hands as she looked at the ceiling above. Her beautiful eyes turned sour as she mimicked Karina's voice as best as she could, "Oh Lyon, we are a teacher and a student, this kind of feeling, you must bury it deep inside your heart. I know it sounds unfair but we are not destined to be together. Then for your question, I will answer it with a single tear from my eye."

"H-hey I do not sound like—"

Before Karina could finish her piece of mind, Ryona already stood up straight with her hands behind her back. She deepened her voice as if she was a man.

"Then I will take your running tears as a yes. Be my woman, as I will be your man. To hell with what the world thinks. Destiny? They are nothing but pebbles beneath my feet!"

"Oh, Lyon."

"Kari—ack!"

Ryona suddenly flying toward the wall before crashing into it. The simple attack shouldn't have sent her flying like a ball being kicked but since Karina was using the opposite kind of cultivation source, it was possible.

"S-stop it, Lyon wouldn't say anything like that! Right, Luna?"

Luna blushed as she looked away. Ryona's play reminded her of what's transpired during the first night she had with him. (He is definitely going to say something like that).

Karina immediately understood what she implied and the red hue on her cheeks lit up like an overheated teapot. She suddenly crouched down in the corner of the room with her face covered by her hands, either hiding from the fact or entering her own fantasy, nobody knows.

(I never saw older sister Karina act like this, not even if they gave me half of Mabia would I believe she would act like this) thought Luna.

The man suddenly slammed the table before he shouted, "Enough with this nonsense! You three have offended the Treas family! Surrender yourself to me and I will act as if nothing happens."

However, his smug face didn't last long.

Suddenly the air became tight surrounding the three. Their body could sense danger, no, a greater being was at present. Their goosebumps rose as the feeling of kowtowing revolved around their very soul.

The man and his two guards were palpitating in anxiety. His eyes stare straight in horror as a giant white tiger was staring him down like a bug that should not enter its vicinity. One slap of its paw could send them to the path of rebirth.

Luna's face suddenly twitched before the image of the white tiger slowly vanished into thin air. The man and his guards were immediately released from the indomitable force that strained their souls.

(Somehow the power of the bloodline has risen significantly and I couldn't maintain it for long... am I too tired still?) thought Luna as she blushed.

"HOW DARE YOU! How dare you activate your bloodline against me! Guards, these three have made a great offense against the Treas family. I, Russel Treas Nistan, hereby granting you the right to subdue these three to me for the right punishment!"

"Yes sir!"

One of the guards immediately leaped toward Luna with his sword swung down.

"Nistan Art: Half-Moon Strike!"

However, before the blade could reach her, a hand suddenly came in between them. (Hah stupid, you will lose your hand) thought the guard. "Say goodbye!"

His eyes immediately opened wide as the strength he put into the technique suddenly vanished into thin air the moment it came in contact with the hand. (What..the?).

Karina casually held the blade with her hand before she delivered a palm in one single momentum toward his chest plate.

(Hah stupid, this armor is infused with mana, the durability of this thing is a hundred more times more—)

His armor immediately shattered like glass as his heart was crushed along with his muscles and ribs. His body was sent flying as he splurted his blood in mid-air. Adorned the floor with his very own red.

The loud thud from a corpse woke Russel's disbelieve to reality. His guard was not an ordinary guard, he used to be a highly skilled mercenary, train from a really tender age.

The other guard immediately took one step before he swung his sword toward her nape. He saw a blind spot and immediately took advantage of it while she was cooling down for a second.

"Your head is mine!"

His goosebumps suddenly rose as a shadow stood behind him and the air on the east side of his head abruptly change. His pupils didn't manage to see what's coming before he felt a cold thin line running across his neck. His swing stopped right before it touched Karina's nape.

"Hiiiik!"

Russel tumbled down as he screeched. His shaky hand immediately crushed a Returning Jade Stone he had brought with him. He never thought that the situation would go out of his control, not to mention both of his guards were easily killed.

As his body immediately enveloped by the jade light, his face turned smug albeit the cold sweat on his forehead. "You will pay for this dearly I tell you, dearly!"

"Before you go, let me give you a warning," said Luna as she stood against him with crossed arms.

"Huh?"

"The blood on the floor inside the room where Chloe last seen him," Luna smirked like a certain someone, "it was not his."

"Auuuuw!" howled Fenrir.

His pupils shrunken as his eyes opened wide in horror before his figure was transported away.
