663: Greeting From an Elder

Greeting From an Elder

Not a single alchemist dares to show a slight discourteous to this small figure. She still had the pair of rabbit ears. Her black round hair made her look like a tomato and the small round tail on her back. She was most definitely not belong to the human race, but none of the alchemists dare to raise their chin against her.1

Lumina raised her brows. She quickly understood the gravity of her presence. The little rabbit-like woman didn't have that kind of figure that held anything of power, but the bearing she exuded was a little too extraordinary. Especially with the dark-galaxy cloak with embedded stars on it, she was special than the rest.

Cherie had her eyes widened. She knew this figure. This was the figure that Lyon had mentioned back in when they were having lunch together.

"It's true..." she muttered before giving out a smile.

Lyon smirked before he turned around and looked at her with crossed arms. "Long time no see, Elise."

(WHAT?!) Ark had a cold gust creeping his spine. (They knew each other?! THE Elise?! The prodigy elder?!).

(W-What's going on?! Who is he?!) Luvia had her eyelids locked open.

"It's been a long time, you seem..." Elise's round eyes grew exponentially as she looked at the young man in front of her. (This boy, the aura, the bearing, they all significantly grew, his cultivation level..?!?! Impossible! He is already at the threshold of Ascending God?! But-but when I see him at the time, he barely even reach Divine!).

"Well?" Lyon completed her sentence.

Elise regained her senses before she smiled, "A little too well, boy, I have to wonder questions to ask, but the first one would be. What is your purpose here and also, did you hunt this fledgling?"

"Oh, so you know that this is a fledgling, haha! Which is funny because..."

"Because what?" she blinked.

"N-Nothing," Lyon smiled wryly.

"Hmm, you're still weird as ever, but why are you here with Renduval?" asked Elise before she realized. "You're the winner of that silly tournament?"

Hilde's and Cherie's smiles have petrified the instant she heard her words. The tournament that they held was prestigious to the cultivators both in First Heaven and a few of the Mortal Worlds. However, in the eyes of a person of her stature, it was nothing but silly. Then again, they could only take it with a grain of salt after the blasphemous act of the Pala Kingdom in modifying the tournament to their will. 

"Silly, huh?" said Lyon before he smiled wryly. "Can't say that it was not, though, things would change, in fact, things would be fastly different from this time on."

Elise furrowed her eyebrows before she smiled, "Boy, don't be so enigmatic with me and spill it."

"I don't think you would believe what I would have told you," Lyon shrugged.

"Try me," said Elise as she tightened her crossed arms.

"I ended the Golden Dragon Kingdom and the Pala Kingdom in the same day," said Lyon as he smirked.

"What?" Elise undo her crossed arms before pressing her waist. "What did you say?"

"I-It's true, Elder Elise," said Renduval as he nodded. "Queen Wanda of the Sverine Kingdom stated so to me directly. Also, the condition of the city Afurnae supported his claim. He is without a doubt (A motherfucker) the one that ended the two regimes simultaneously."

The alchemists gasped. They couldn't believe someone that young would be able to crush both kingdoms very easily. 

(What?!) Ark and the three women had their eyes shrunken. The feat of destroying a kingdom of that level was already an almost impossible task, let alone two of them on the same day.

Elise squinted her eyes as she glanced at Renduval who was pathetically trembling from knees down before averting back to Lyon.

"A lot must have happened since we met, that fox-lady and that barbaric woman, are they dead?" asked Elise.

"Her name is Kyoko, and Ryona."

"Right," Elise nodded. "I'm never good at remembering a name, boy."

She shrugged before she turned around and shook her head. "Finish your business and let's catch up after that, after all, you got a week to experience this place."

"Really?" Lyon asked.

"Huh? Wait," she turned around. "You don't know?"

Lumina sighed as Kesya and Cecile chuckled.

"I have no idea that we would be here for a week, I don't bring any cloth—"

"I have prepared it for you, young master," said Assid as he bowed.

"Kh... en, good job, Assid," Lyon nodded nervously.

"I don't deserve your praise."

"Young master?" Elise tilted her head. "Did you marry that princess you're so fond of?"

"Huh? You mean Aelina?"

"Maybe? The chestnut-colored hair girl at the time."

"Yup, it's Aelina," Lyon nodded before he added, "And no, I didn't marry her, yet."

"I always leave the door open, Elder Elise," said Lyon with a proud smirk following a peal of hearty laughter.

Elise was speechless. "I wonder what kind of women would want to be with you, to be honest."

"Then look no further," Cecile said before she stood right beside Lyon. "Nice to meet you, I'm his wife, Cecile."

"My name is Lumina," Lumina stood on the other side.

Elise took a step back astoundingly. (T-Two?!).

"Hahaha!" Lyon laughed before Lumina pinched his love handle. "Ow!"

Elise smiled wryly. "R-Right, fine."

She turns around before waving at them. "Meet me after you do what you want, I have a preposition if you are interested."

"Oh, Elise, you're here, that's pretty rare, you usually don't get out of your room even though a meteor fell on your neighbor," a laugh robust laugh followed.

Elise stopped before she closed her eyes as he let out a sigh. "What do you want baldy?"

"That's Elder Tamuh, for you!" a bald man with a strong figure appeared from Elise's opposite.

"That doesn't apply to me," said Elise as she looked at the man in front of her.

Tamuh crossed his arms with a proud smirk, "What makes come out of your room, Elise?"
