Chapter 326: 326: The Women Departure, With A Twist!

"It's time..." her pink lips muttered.

She stood up with a smirk on her smile. Her purple hair swayed as she turned around and opened the door. A motherly figure appeared right in front of her with mellow behind the latter's eyes. 

"He is going to win, I'm sure of it mother."

Luna's eyes were sharp as fire could be seen behind every fiber inside her body. There was not a shred of doubt that could be seen from her mimick. 

Leyna's lips turned into a grin as she looked at her daughter. She placed her hands on top of her head before she rustled her hair like a little girl. 

Luna faced down with a blush on her cheeks.

"My, you have grown so much, you would usually belittle me and said that you're not a little girl anymore. Now, look at you, not a single complaint. You've matured, in more ways than one."

"Mother..."

Luna put his head over her breast before she tightly embraced her. Moments like this came in an instant but would never be forgotten in their entire lifespan. After a couple of long breaths, she finally let go.

"He will win, I'm sure of it, and I'll be there with him when it happened and during his struggle."

Leyna nodded, "En, I'm sure he will, you are not the only one that believed in him though."

Leyna chuckled at her daughter's curious look.

-------------------------------

"I'll be back, mother, father!" said Luna as she bid farewell to her closest family. 

"Hmm," her father nodded.

Leyna furrowed her eyebrows before she elbowed his side and looked at him with death. 

(That actually hurt you know!) thought her husband before he let out a sigh. It was tough for everyone that had been a father. He looked at her with a hint of guilt and a hint of pride. She had suffered before the resurrection of Leyna, all for his quenchable revenge. However, never could he imagined that the three of them would stand together again as a family.

Just like any other family, the child must go to live their own life. Especially Luna, even though she was the only heir to the Phantera Kingdom, she had chosen her own path. Whether be it for love or for her passion, he could only nod and agree. He had been unfair for the past few years but he eternally grateful that she could see why he arranged that fake arranged marriage.

He smiled, "Now that I think about it, hah, to think that one single event would change you for the better."

"Though, how I would wish for you to stay, it won't happen nor will it be for the best. I just want you to know that I love you, Luna. Your mother and I will always support you. Please promise us that you come to play and next time, maybe. With a little version of you if you can hahaha! *ehem, Please, excuse this old man's personal wish."

"I just want you to be happy and I'm sure Lyon could do that, I mean, look at me, I'm happier than ever since the day Leyna opened her eyes again, and I'm an old man. Though, to be honest, at first, I was skeptical about Lyon the first time I met him. Hahaha, after all, who would dare come crashing into our kingdom and just shouted to everyone's eardrum. He is a true man indeed, I'm sure your child will be as strong as him and as gallant as him but as determined as her mother."

"Eh...???"

Anskar blinked twice with his dumbfounded face. He felt the gentle breeze from nature as if it took pity at his situation. Air, he was speaking to empty air.

He closed his eyes before he took a deep long breath.

"Anskar, honey, help me decorate the new room for our grandchildren! What are you doing staring blankly into space? Oh no, you are not going to go senile, are you? At least wait until our grandchildren matured before you do that," said Leyne from the entrance.

He let out a big sigh, as he took a glance at the sky and its birds, "Family...huh."

He turned around as he answered, "Yeah, I'm coming."

-----------------------

Luna rode a horse to her destination, Luderia Kingdom, where the leading gate to Mabia World was.

Since the competition of the Crown was held in Mabia, Sophie had personally instructed those that were invited to be an audience in the massive tournament, The Throne, to gather there. All accommodation and expenses were naturally under the famous family name to bear.

(And since there was a huge issue and scandal that happened before) thought Luna as her lips twitched seeing the group in front waiting for her.

(There was no exact limitation...)

"Aye, big sister Luna!" shouted the handsome man with long blonde hair. He had a tall and skinny figure that would make people often mistaken him for an elf.

"You're early Jugen," said Luna.

He nodded, "Of course, don't want to be late for the awesome big bro to crush the tournament. I bet those cocky geniuses are already insulting him already." He clenched his fist as he made an annoyed face.

Luna smiled before she took a glance at a familiar girl, "You are coming too??"

"Hmph, of course, I'm coming! You're not the only princess on this trip."

The woman had a chestnut hair color and was usually a cheerful person. However, she would always act like this in front of her. Seemed their identity brought about a rivalry that was fated by the world. Aelina, with her usual white-themed garment.

Luna smirked as she shrugged her shoulder. She knew that Aelina had somehow got seduced by Lyon when he was on a trip with Biane and Clemora. (Speaking of which).

"Are you sure it's alright to leave all the work? Managing a kingdom that big, a dynasty even, wouldn't it need all the forces they could get??" asked Luna toward the two.

"Don't worry about it, it's all under control," said Biane with a smug on her face 

"Sister, what do you mean under control? Hmmm?!" sneered Clemora as she closing in into her face.

Her lips twitched as she looked away from her glaring sister.

"Oh welcome miss Luna, I hope you have prepared for the journey??"

The voice came from the woman who had almost the same hair color as her however she had a shorter style. She still wore her professional maid attire but everyone in the group already knew that she was more than just a personal maid for the Queen of Nostria Kingdom.

"Fei? You are coming too? Then who would handle all the affairs of Nostria Kingdom when you are gone?" asked Luna.

Fei took a slight bow with her hands joined in the front, "The Trio Troublemaker would handle it, I'm sure those seniors would be fine in handling the kingdom they have served their entire life for."

"Ah..." Luna's mouth slightly twitched as the image of three old men appeared inside her mind. (Would it be alright though?).

"I-I'm not here because I wanted to, I-I'm here because Fei forced and drag me here."

There was only one woman with silver hair and red eyes in the group or in this entire world or the next one. The fated woman that met the fated young man before anyone else. The one that was destined to welcome the person that currently being revered by the whole Deo. The Queen of Nostria herself, Sylviana.

"Miss, nobody asks why are you here," said Fei with a smile and closed eyes.

"A-a-a-a!" her face turned as red as a tomato before she crouched down in shame. 

"What are you doing Sylviana?"

Sylviana immediately froze as she heard whom the voice belonged to.

The voice belonged to a woman that had blonde hair just like Jugen had. She was the beauty to whom Lyon first landed his lips too. The Golden Demoness, Jugen's older sister, Karina. Their teacher-student relationship was as ambiguous as the rumor surrounding them said.

"Y-Yes!" Sylviana suddenly stood up straight.

Luna furrowed her eyebrows before Fei closing in and whispered to her ear, "The past few days, she had been trained by her to handle the curse and Gungnir."

(Ah... ha..ha..ha) thought Luna as she could only give sympathy toward her.

"Overseer, you are coming too?!"

The woman with orange hair approached the woman that wore a kimono-like garment. The rest of the women who looked at the latter could only squint their eyes in envy as they looked down on their breast.

"Hmm, yes, I would like to ask him a question," said Kyoko as she placed one of her arms under her breast as if supporting it.

(You're doing that on purpose aren't you?!) thought the rest of the women.

"Question? What kind of question?" asked Ryona.

"Hmmmm... Jugen please close your ears."

"Eh?"

Before Jugen could say anything else, Karina punched him to the chin and instantly knocked him out (Why?!?!) thought Jugen before he was out of consciousness.

"Lately, I've noticed that my favorite bra had gone missing for a very long time."

"Wait, you too?"

"Ah me too!"

"Not only that but my undergarments too."

"Luna, how about you?"

Luna made a wry smile (Well, a pair of mine disintegrated when...<3 It's probably best not to tell them).

"You don't suppose the culprit would be the same person right?"

"Well, I guess hubby would be the only plausible person to do it, though he could have just asked and I would give him the whole set haha!"

The women had blacklines over their heads as they heard what Ryona said.
