Emperor's Reckoning

Chapter 521: Scarlet, Feast!

The aura surrounding Lyon had changed. It was dark and sinister rather than empowering like he used to be. The bearing of the emperor was no more and no ghosts could even dare to approach him at this moment. 

“T-Torga…” the Eternal Golem gritted its giant teeth. Though the puny human was small in reality, in its view it was different. 

One swift moment and suddenly the table had turned. The humongous thing suddenly moved one of its legs backward. 

(It took a step back?!) thought Ivy as she was on the lookout for any slight changes that humongous thing did. 

“It’s scared…” muttered Ivy as she looked at the huge mountain of a figure. The elder was listening to their young miss’s word but the fear that gripped their soul was too severe. The size of its toe alone could plummet them akin to a human against an ant.

“Aaaah!” The Eternal Golem cried out its warcry before picking up a huge boulder nearby with one hand.

“Eat this!” The Eternal Golem threw it in Lyon’s direction.

The boulder came with the sound that pierced the air as no friction could decrease the initial acceleration. The might behind the throw was astonishing but the youth that it was heading toward spare no smile or fright.

*Boom!

Lyon leaped forward before leaving a huge crater on the place where he once stood. The rude launch was very different from how he used to move and the blowback of the wind caught the onlookers’ hair to flutter.

He pushed his index finger forward toward the incoming boulder.

*Boom!

The boulder immediately cracked open in an instant. One blink and nobody saw it cracked. The power in that finger alone had surpassed the density and the force of the boulder.

Lumina and the others opened their eyes wide. Only the three generals and Cecile was smiling at the act as if the outcome was predestined.

“Na?!” The Eternal Golem was surprised seeing how Lyon overcome that attack. It knew that it won’t stop him but it was thought to be a good measurement of how strong Lyon was. The answer was naught.

“One-fourth of Eternal Golem. Would it mean anything against my dearest who has three blessings activated at once? Maybe if it had two-third of the soul then it’ll be a challenge,” said Cecile as she smiled through the blood that ran out from her bottom lips had dried out. Nobody noticed the significant healing capabilities of the War God physique.

Her mother was looking at her son-in-law landing right before the famed golem.

There he was. Standing on top of black grasses against a being that’s almost ten times its size. Any sane mortal would have cowered in fear and subjugated to Eternal Golem’s innate ability. However, to the youth with gray ash eyes, it meant nothing. 

The Eternal Golem was in fear, the fright that was beyond its own understanding.

“Torga! You wretched fool, I finally get it. You incite both the wrath of Heaven and Hell did you not? That’s why you are rendered to such a pathetic state. Would it be the old you, I would have been perished along with this world,” said the Eternal Golem as it pointed its giant finger against him.

“I have no idea what you are talking about. All I know is that you will die today, no matter where you pick up that stone body of yours, I will obliterate every inch of soul that you have,” said Lyon as his killing intent brought the Eternal Golem to step back once more.

“Go!” shouted the Eternal Golem before mindless Remnants suddenly revealed themselves. The sea of death golem Remnants was surrounding Lyon in a blink of an eye. Though they were glaring with killing intent their sum was incomparable against him.

“Hehehe! What’s wrong Torga? These are my people that you killed mercilessly! Face their undying wrath!”

The Eternal Golem leaped toward the East without delay. Its humongous’s shadow swallowed Ivy and the rest of the elders. At that gasping moment from their faces, the surreal emotion of feeling insignificant almost made their soul fall.

(L-Lyon… is fighting this thing?!) thought Ivy as she swallowed her saliva. She knew no matter how cold did she had, it won’t be able to freeze all of that thing. She was not even confident to freeze the feet.

The elders let out a sigh of relief but Elder Crystal furrowed her eyebrows, “Wh-Where is it going?”

“Ghosts shouldn’t bother the living,” said Lyon as he didn’t even look at one of the glaring Remnants. He merely furrowed his eyebrows before he whispered.

“Calamity Goat Art…”

The mana that exuded out from his wedding ring. The pure unpolluted mana turned a dark hue before his eyes turned sharp.

“First Calamity!” he clapped his hands together before the surrounding Remnants wailed to thin air then vanished in a blink of an eye.

Just like that, the mindless ghosts dispersed to the afterlife without an effort to even attack the youth. The disparity of power was displayed in a single action, a single clap. 

One of them could easily make Garuda enter into an endless coma and made Yunesia lose most of the expedition allies that she had. However, it took him one single clap to end them all.

“He is still as amazing as he used to be,” muttered Kesya as she had finally managed to turn around after a few struggles.

“Of course he is, he is, after all, our emperor,” replied Assid as he too had turned around.

“Heh,” Graham grinned as he crossed his arms.

“Dieeeeee! TORGAAAAAA!!”

A death threat immediately reverberated the realm before Ivy’s eyes opened wide as her hair fluttered and the huge being leaped over them once more. 

Its jump was way higher than before and a huge weapon that it carried pierced the red ominous clouds before the Eternal Golem hacked it downward.

The blade of an ax was coming straight against the puny human below with precision like no other.

Lyon’s hand reached out before grabbing the blade. The force of the gale produced fluttered his black hair and the reflection of the blade caught the disbelief of the Eternal Golem’s face.

“A-Amazing! Haha, he is really ridiculous when he goes all out!” commented Kesya.

“I-Impossible!” shouted Eternal Golem as its entire weight was added to the force of the slash that it made, but the young human casually grabbed the sharp blade without much struggle.

Lyon furrowed his eyebrows before he threw the ax along with the host away. 

The Eternal Golem fell on the ground and tremored the world. The sheer weight of a mountain dropping immediately caused a huge crater on the ground and shifted the lands. 

“You absurd monster!” said the Eternal Golem before it got up. “Wait, wait!”

“Hm?”

“Listen to me, I have a proposition to give,” said the Eternal Golem. “Spare me, let me join you! Bring me back to full power and we can subjugate those cocky Heaven and Hell together! You know how strong I am! We fought before! Our battle was legendary and caught every eye! They feared us to work together! That’s why they further add oil to our fiery feud!”

The Eternal Golem was heaving up and down. It knew that the giant ax was a nail to its coffin. The young man somehow gained ridiculous power that even the Eternal Golem couldn’t comprehend. Being bound in this place with a low chance of resurrecting was a torment no being should have faced. However, due to that condition too that it had survived this long. 

“I think you’re forgetting something,” Lyon suddenly jumped with the bulge of the veins in his right arm thumping to a concerning state.

Right at that moment, the eyes of Eternal Golem dilated. Three mythical beings appeared in one single image, glaring behind Lyon’s back.

The hue of pure mana pouring out of the wedding ring slowly swirling around Lyon’s right arm before it shifted color to the jade of True Dragon, golden of Devil Ape, and finally black of Calamity Goat. 

“Die!” shouted Lyon before he punched away his right fist. The roar of three mythical beings was heard before Eternal Golem was devastated with a deafening boom.

The entire black grasses on the ground and the entire red clouds in the sky vaporized in a blink of an eye. The ground squeaked immensely before it shattered as it turned to dust.

Amidst the chaos, a fiery soul at the size of a palm was fleeting away from the scene at a cautious speed. 

(Damn you Torga! As long as I live, I will have my revenge!) thought the one-fourth of the Eternal Golem as it went toward the vortex. The gate that connected the two worlds.

(500 years, 700 hundred years, no matter! The chance will come and I will have your head then!) thought the soul as it went past the spiraling vortex.

However, just as soon as it basked in the light of the sun and the gaze of curious-looking weak cultivators. A hand suddenly reached out from the vortex and grabbed the soul before pulling it back in.

(W-What?!) the soul watched the horizontal slit of his gray eyes. It was more menacing than its own.

“I told you already, I will obliterate you, every inch of your soul,” said Lyon with gritted teeth against those last words.

“W-What are you going to do?!”

Lyon summoned his sword with his left hand, “Scarlet, feast.”

He stabbed the sword against the soul before the excruciating pain of being devoured let the famous Eternal Golem wail and cry out its misery until there was nothing left.
