Chapter 343: 343: Don't Lose!

"Bad memories?" Tuey tilted her head.

Lyon's face turned slightly complicated as there was a hint of happiness and sadness when he remembered the time where it changed his life. He was taking a bath and just about to open the fridge before it suddenly rattled by itself. When he thought about it his face was slightly brightened as he shook his head. His mouth upturned as he looked at the vortex in front of him. 

It was almost like at the time, except the last time, he was chased by three orbs before he was sent away from earth. He stood naked in front of a beautiful queen with silver hair and red velvet eyes. Though he suffered some humiliation he didn't suffer from all of it. He discovered a mysterious past waiting to be unveiled, three wives he didn't know he had. He even forgot that he was still nineteen years old at times. More importantly, he kept meeting interesting and beautiful women without fail.

Tuey put her hand on her waist before she said, "Older brother, honestly, you just said bad memories but look at your face, it's glowing."

Lyon shook his head, "Bad memories are only a small part of it the rest was an adventure I could never forget even if I die."

"Sylviana, I wonder how is she doing right now. That harsh Queen of Nostria probably didn't even come to watch," Lyon muttered under his mouth before he shook his head and smiled.

"Fusya!"

The gentle demonic beast suddenly rubbed its head against his shin. Fusya's mouth was born upturned as it was very rare for its kind to show sadness despite they could feel emotions. The four legs might be tiny but they were tireless.

Lyon took a knee before he rubbed its head as the latter immediately closed its eyes in delight and comfort. There was no denying in the affection that he showed against the demonic beast.

Tuey glanced over before she asked, "How come he is so popular with animals?"

She shook her head with heartache as she was jealous of this one capability of his. His talent was surmounting the others despite his low cultivation levels, yet there seem to be nothing that he couldn't do.

"Maybe, he had the talent to be a Beastmaster?" the old man rubbed his chin as he saw both Lyon and Fusya.

"Beastmaster?"

"Yup, Beastmaster, though those people didn't have an amazing strength alone, they could train demonic beast to a certain extent. Some capable ones could even lead a horde of a demonic beast just under one whistle. Could you imagine a lone person had a thousand dragons ready at his beck and call? They could be easily called a walking army."

"Wait a minute, wouldn't those kinds of people be feared all around the world?"

The old man shook his head before he smiled, "Do you think just about anyone could have a swarm of a demonic beast in a snap of a finger ready to serve him? It will take more than just hard work to attain such strength, it might be even easier to cultivate instead."

"Alright, alright."

Lyon stood up before he faced the two girls, Ayuku and Madoka. He crossed his arms with a smile against both of them before Ayuku dimpled her cheeks. 

"You really are something! How come you hide those stuff from me? At first glance, I couldn't even see what kind of monster you are. You even made Madoka 'alive' hahaha."

"That is mean Ayuku, bang."

Madoka lightly punched Ayuku's arm with her small arms that didn't seem to contain any strength at all.

"Hahaha! Well anyway, I hope we could battle it out in the other plane when the chance arise!" Ayuku waved her goodbye before she darted her glance against the old man and bowed under everyone's eyes.

The onlookers were immediately gobsmacked by her gesture before she left them speechless as she entered the vortex.

"Ah, bye."

Lyon slightly had black lines over his head seeing how Madoka acted. She looked quite clumsy with her dead emotion but has a cute voice overall. She carefully made her way against the gate before Lyon suddenly called her out.

"Madoku, wait."

"Hm? What is wrong, Lyon?"

She turned around with her head slightly tilted to the side.

"Hahaha! Sorry about earlier."

"....En."

She nodded before she turned around and just left.

"Hm... is it me or is she kinda weird?"

"What are you talking about older brother?"

Lyon didn't answer Tuey's curiosity but instead contemplated for an answer on his own. He was sure that Madoku didn't act like that the moment he met her back after he destroyed the whole bandit gang just by crushing their leader to the ground. There was something off with how she replied but he couldn't point a finger at it.

In the end, he shook his head before he turned around and saw the old man with a brimming smile on his face. He darted his glance from the old rut to the beautiful woman beside him that crossed her arms. Her breath was calm but her heart was in disarray. It was only a mere moment that they were together and now he had to go once more.

"There was once a man I waited for countless of years that I do not know how many had passed."

Lumina's words sent a hundred swords that pierced through Lyon's heart and mind. He could hear the sorrow in her tone and the sadness in her eyes. A dragon she might be, a woman she was always. Though her silver pupils and jade iris symbolized her power and proved to be demeaning others unintentionally. Lyon was the person who had not a single care in the world and approached her in those times.

She tightened her upper lips before she paced her steps and glanced at everything but the one she was approaching. With one last tap, Lumina was a breath away from him as she looked down at his chest. 

"The last time it was a moving library, now, it's another mysterious place."

Lyon's throat turned sour as he heard those words. He couldn't help but opened his arms and embraced her. He gently pushed her head and let it rest on his chest. Lyon slightly raised his eyebrows before he closed his eyes. He felt something was soaking on his torso. It was no doubt the valuable tears of a dragon. There was nothing else but that one thing.

Lyon took a deep breath with his nose. He started to feel like he was undeserving of such a woman in his embrace. She had gone through too much pain and suffering and he was not there for her. He might be a fool, too much of a fool sometimes. Bearing the sins of hurting her was not light, especially when one couldn't buy time.

"Your jade hair is really beautiful."

Lyon's words of praise naturally didn't flinch the woman but he still kept saying it. He rustled her jade hair right under everyone's gaze. The atmosphere was choking their eyes as some couldn't help but look for a way to shed their tears. They both look like they were from a painting ready to be immortalized.

"I promise I'll be back. It won't be long. I know, my words mean nothing to you right now. However, you know yourself I'm not lying."

Lyon raised his eyebrows as he could feel Lumina suddenly embraced him back. Her grips were tighter than his as she let out all the emotion built up inside her go. He didn't mind if she broke his spine, as far as he knew, he deserved it.

Silver wings suddenly unfolded and spread as wide as they could. Lyon's eyes opened wide before his lips were gently mushed on something soft. He could clearly see her jade eyelash was hugging her eyes as she held her breath. The thumping sound of her heart was clearer than the current night sky. 

The two of them were the warmest people under the lunar sky. The cold chilling wind was nothing even though Lyon was topless. With nothing but her woman as his warmth, he felt like stopping time itself.

Lumina pulled her lips before she slightly pants and took a step back under Lyon's unwillingness to let her go. Lyon looked at the woman in front taking a gulp before she suddenly smiled.

"Don't lose!"

Lumina grinned as she clenched her fist upward.

Lyon smiled with a tear in his eye before he crossed his arms. The atmosphere immediately changed as the bearing of an emperor exuded from his figure. He smirked before he said.

"I can't lose!"

He turned around before showing his back against her. He turned his face slightly to the right before his eyes glanced over her.

"I'm going!"

"En! Be careful!"

Lyon nodded before he leaped forward and entered the vortex.
