Lyon decided to go back to Riku's house to take care of his bladder. Meanwhile, Fenrir was taking care of by the girls. His consciousness slowly came back to him as the fragrant of cooked meat entered his nostrils.

"Heh, to think that Lyon would cause another ruckus," sighed Karina.

"I guess no matter where you put a diamond, it will shine," also sighed Luna.

"I'm lucky to have a big brother like him," said Jugen with a hint of pride.

Tiene suddenly dragged Riku's arm to her room, leaving the others in the dining room.

"What is it, mom? You seem so flustered," asked Riku

Taking a deep breath, Tiene firmly grabbed her shoulders and stared at her seriously, "Be honest with mommy, you like Lyon, don't you?"

The sudden question left Riku baffled for a while, "Wha-what are you saying? Of course not! Besides, he is master's hubby."

Tiene shook her head, "Riku, my little girl, I will tell you this honestly, if I had not married your father, I might already be under the sheet with Lyon by now."

"M-Mom!" now it was Riku's turn to become flustered, (How could she say that with a straight face).

The Nostria Kingdom.

Sylviana was leisurely walking in the garden with her loose garb, making her looked like a celestial. Her every movement might incite a deadly desire in men but luckily Fei was always there beside her.

"Is he back yet?" asked Sylviana while plucking a flower.

"Oh? You are missing him already?" teased Fei.

"No! I wanted to know if Luna is safe or not, their result would make a difference in our kingdom," said Sylviana hurriedly.

"Yes, yes of course," teased Fei.

After fooling around with Fei, Sylviana sighed, "When do you think the Heaven's Dawn Dynasty would attack?"

"By my experience, they would probably probe us first to gauge our strength, since Miss Ryona blasted the prince away from here," said Fei.

"How will they gauge us?"

"There are a couple of ways, first is probably send a scout or an undercover to live alongside with the Nostrians and gained info by bribing the guards or other means,"

"While second is by talking with a traveler merchant or something similar to that,"

Sylviana nodded in response, "What do you think we should do now?"

"Wait, attacking the dynasty is out of the question for now, although we have those eleven people I doubt they would listen to you."

*sigh

"You're right, those people would probably listen only to Lyon," dejected Sylvianna.

"Then all you have to do is marry him, problem solved right?" clapped Fei.

"Would you, stop saying about marriage already, I mean how about you?" asked Sylvianna, (Oh no!)

*kyaaa

"Sorry!!"

The Ascension was what the Mist Clan anticipating next, joining the Central Region meant prestige and benefits. They would have the finest art, the finest beads, the finest everything the Mist Clan could offer.

But the Ascension test was really difficult, in every Ascension, there were no more than five disciples could ascend. Some of them even tried to bribe the elder but got bashing instead.

Today was the day of the Ascension and Riku was already gearing up. Accompanied by her parents and friends, they walked to the Central Region for the test.

Every step they made, people would take a glance. That's because Lyon was leading the walk. His name was spread out overnight in East Region as the 'miracle'. Fans even thought of him as a god, if he calls your name, you will be blessed for the rest of your life.

It was really ridiculous, but Lyon pretty much enjoyed basking in praises. He casually waved his hand as if he was the king and the girls were his harem.

"He just waved at me!" said a young man.

"Lucky you!" said another.

"I wished Lyon would bring me to his bed," said a young girl.

"You? Hahaha, even a puke would puke seeing your face," said a young man.

"Yeah, but this puke won't even want to sleep with you,"

The onlookers laughed at their conversation.

The Central Region had a pathway made of the night stones, it would lit up during the night automatically. Unlike in Nostria, when there was an event such as this, street vendors were not allowed to open a sale. The reason for this was that the elders afraid of having their candidates eat a wrong food or someone poisoned their food, thus interrupted their performance.

The Ascension was held in the Central's arena, where they would be called one by one to do the procedure. Every procedure would be inspected by the elders and the head of the Mist Clan on top of the balcony. After they done the procedures they would be called once more on the arena to be announced if they are worthy to ascend or not.

As Lyon and his friends arrived at the arena, they were sitting on the audience sit, leaving Riku on the arena waiting to be called.

As Lyon glance at the elder's panel, the middle chair was missing someone.

"Eh, brother are you new here?" asked a young man beside Lyon.

"Yes, I am, did my outfit sold me out? haha."

"It sure is, brother, you might don't know this, but the head of the Mist Clan is the number one beauty here,"

"What? Really?" Lyon definitely piqued interest in this.

As he glanced the sits once more, he noticed a familiar figure sitting there. It was the elder beauty which entered the tavern.

(Ah! I almost forgot I need to apologize to her little sister for groping her).

Naeya seemed to notice being stared at and she started to look at the ones. When she saw who was the one staring at her, her eyes glared like a tiger ready to maul its prey. But Lyon's eyes suddenly had his eyes wide opened as he saw the figure that about to sit in the middle.

"No way."
