Chapter 612: 612: Release Them

Hilde was looking at the young man with her eyebrows raised. She never thought that he would answer. She was about to be demeaned but he was taking over the flow of attention.

The king of the Golden Dragon Kingdom furrowed his eyebrows before he spoke with an overbearing tone, "You have no right to speak, stay still until judgment is bestowed upon you."

"And who are you?" asked Lyon as he raised one of his eyebrows.

"What?" the king naturally frowned.

The crowd gasped in astonishment. Giving blatant insult even though his position was at dismay. They could only shake their heads in astonishment. Nobody, not even the thick hide of the Golden Dragon could rival his thick skin.

"You see this young man," said the king of the Golden Dragon Kingdom. "He had not only given no respect for First Heaven but also committing an unforgivable sin, a crime that threatened our harmonious relationship with each other!"

"Oh?" Lyon crossed his arms before he smirked, "Respect for First Heaven? Did you guys even have respect for the Mortal World?"

Carius immediately grinned as he heard what the young man had said. Those words were the words that he was waiting for. The relief that he felt of finally confirming that Lyon was with the Mortal World was unimaginably great.

"That's right!" Carius shouted. "You, all of you people have always treated us so unfairly!"

"Don't spout bullshit, old man!" shouted Hezar.

King Pala shook his head, "I see, it seems that over the last few years, the Mortal World had grown ungrateful toward the gifts that we gave."

"Ptui!" Carius spotted his saliva toward the ground. "Grateful?! Grateful you say?! You sabotaged the tournament over and over again!"

"You!!" Hezar kicked Carius right at the jaw.

"Grandfather!" Porealus immediately lost it. His eyebrows furrowed almost to a vertical before he rushed forward, but Lyon caught his collar.

"Let me go!"

Lyon shook his head before he pulled him with quite a force. The latter fell to a thud and gritted his teeth. "What are—?!"

His complaints were met with Graham's ghastly glare. "Calm down."

His fingers were trembling. The suffocating aura that was exuded from the half-giant was more dreadful than the giant thing that Loyon fought back in that place. He gulped before he nodded.

"Tch! Hahaaha!" Carius laughed even though blood escaped his lips. "Why are you so nervous, boy, afraid you can't explain otherwise?"

"Kh!" Hezar gritted his teeth before he kicked him again. Again, again, and again. However, the old man didn't lose consciousness.

"Oi oi, go easy on my friend there, he might not make it, hahaha!" Tael was laughing instead of being sympathetic toward his lifelong friend. 

The matriarch looked at the two of them with eyes widened. The relationship between the two of them was quite unreasonable in the eyes of a woman. She might have cultivated ice-related arts to an unimaginable degree, but she would have no idea how bonds between these two men were still intact.

"Ptui!" Carius spat out blood to the ground but he still smiled. The tenacity of the old man was something even Lyon had to acknowledge. 

It was clear as day how he loved his homeland. Carius, the noble from the Mortal World.

"I have no regrets even if you sever my head right now!" shouted Carius as he grinned. He looked at the confident young man in front with eyes full of glimmering dreams. "For the Mortal World is in better hands than me in the future!"

The fine words were moving even for First Heaven. The grin of the old man brought irritation for most amongst the crowd, but the few that had ascended and lived in First Heaven, they all secretly wept. 

"G-Grandfather," Porealus gritted his teeth as he looked at Carius. He then averted his glance to the back of the young man that could change this situation. (B-Big brother... Please... do something!!)

Wanda wore her neutral smile but inside, she realized that she was walking on a thin rope.

"Hilde, sit down," said the king of the Bolg Kingdom.

To his surprise, the woman shook her head. "There is no need, father, I must do this, if I sit down right now, then the title that I have is nothing but a bunch of letters. I will stand."

His eyes opened wide with his mouth gaped. He then felt a warmth in his hand. He glanced to see his queen smile and shake her head, "Let her mature."

The king slowly nodded as he closed his eyes. He then looked at her daughter before standing on his own. He patted her shoulder to her surprise before she nodded.

Hilde smiled as she nodded back.

"A bunch of meaningless words!" said King Pala. "Whatever they say, it meant nothing, the crime still stood, the sin had been committed. We have heard the reason of which why my subordinate was killed."

Wanda furrowed her eyebrows. There were no more neutral options for her left.

Hilde had the same notion of her thought. There was no more neutral path to indirectly help him.

Either they have to fully sided with Lyon or not at all.

"Lyon Torga, do you have anything to say?" asked King Pala as he smirked. Victory was his.

"Huu~" Lyon let out a breath from his mouth as he put his hands inside his pocket. "Release them."

"What? What are you talking about you idiot!" Raul laughed before he continued, "Don't you realize what situation you're in?"

"Heh, looks like he is getting delusional," smirked Hezar as he crossed his arms. "It's the end of the line brat!"

Lyon's eyes suddenly turned indifferent.

The subtle change was caught by the leader of the Elite Five, Barat. His pupils were shrunken.

"I wasn't talking to you guys," said Lyon as he raised his chin slightly before he nodded up.

*Boom!

A strong wind immediately fluttered Lyon's hair forward as a pair of silhouettes went past by his sides with a jet-like acceleration.

Kesya grinned as she showed her hands whilst Graham was indifferent as he kept his arms crossed. The two absolute monsters moved at the same time.
