Emperor's Reckoning

Chapter 518: Taboo...



Chapter 518: Taboo…

Graham stood right in front of Eternal Golem before crossing his arms. Though he was definitely got the Golem’s Petrification on his legs, he had no fear in his eyes and the fuming rage behind his glare was adamant.

“Who are you?” asked the Eternal Golem. Though it was only a Specter it didn’t accept the rude calling of someone as small as Graham.

Graham raised his right hand as a response.

“Heh, what are you gonna do? Slap me with that little hand? I may be just a Specter with one-fourth of a soul but it is more than enough for that little hand of yours,” the Eternal Golem smirked.

“Do it,” said Lyon.

Graham furrowed his eyebrows before he swung his right hand.

*Boom!

The Eternal Golem’s figure immediately swayed to his right before taking a few steps to regain its balance. (I-Impossible!) thought the huge golem as its eyes constricted. 

“You! Who are you?!” asked the Eternal Golem in rage that trembled the realm. It never thought that someone like him existed.

“Do you think I would share my name with an old rock?” said Graham.

“Old rock?!…. Ah… you are that boy! The one’s that following Torga around! The half-giant” said Eternal Golem. “Never thought I would see the day that you grow old and gray.”

Priscilla who was in an awkward situation raised her eyebrows. Her daughter had said that she beat the Eternal Golem with a few allies before.

“You were not supposed to, you were slain back then. Just stay dead,” threatened Graham.

“Hehehe… HAHAHAHA! You think you are a match for me now? Just because you have cultivated,  do you think you can beat me? Alone? Hah! Don’t make me laugh. You couldn’t even do anything then, heh, I don’t even remember what did you do since you are so insignificant!” shouted Eternal Golem as if it forgot that it just got slapped by Graham.

Graham pulled his fist to the side of his waist before punching to the space forward. 

*Snap!

A huge snapping sound was heard as the air exploded. 

The Eternal Golem’s eyes constricted before it nimbly evaded the strike. (He has grown a lot, meddlesome) thought the Eternal Golem. Were it not from the Golem’s Petrification that it spread out, Graham would have been much faster and agile.

“It dodged it!” exclaimed Jin in disbelief.

“Tch! You indeed have grown stronger but I have the advantages here,” said Eternal Golem. “Ahh, what a cruel fate. Back then I roamed hell and heaven freely. The sixth floor of Hell, I used to reign the place.”

(Hell?!) thought Jin and those who didn’t know its existence. (Hell… existed? The place that filled with demons?! It actually exists?!).

“I’m not interested in hearing the babbling of a rock. Even worse a ghost rock.”

Jin smiled wryly as he looked at his son-in-law. (Damn… his sharp tongue could penetrate a stone).

“Hmm, you have a sharp tongue, just like your father,” said Eternal Golem. “It pisses me off!”

The Eternal Golem suddenly punched forward without warning. The giant fist was like a mountain coming straight at him.

“You wish!” said Graham as he let out his own fist against the humongous fist.

*Boom!

The two colliding fists actually went into a stalemate with a resounding boom. However, the Eternal Golem didn’t stop at one punch, it let out another from the other hand. 

Graham didn’t stop either and received the other fist with his own.

Suddenly the pair made a rattling noise as the subsequent punches were faster than the previous one. 

“A-Amazing!” muttered Jin as he and the rest received the bellowing gale of the wind from their contacts.

“You’re not bad, but sadly, he is not the only one I after,” the Eternal Golem made a hideous smile before he turned his fist against Cecile and Priscila.

“Shit!” Cecile immediately covered her mother before giving her back.

The blinding fist went straight against her defenseless back. She coughed out blood as her consciousness almost left her before the two of them rolled on the ground after several meters.

“Cecile! Priscila!” shouted Jin as he reached out to him but bounded by the ground.

“Are you alright, mother?” asked Cecile as blood started to escape from her lips. She was panting and heaving up and down. That one single punch almost shattered her entire back and ultimately her meridians. Were it not for her quick thinking and using the True Dragon form, she would have shattered even with War Goddess Physique.

“Forget about me! How about you Cecile! Why did you do such a reckless thing!” said Priscila as she held her hand.

“It’s because you are my mother,” said Cecile. “Don’t worry mother, everything will be fine.”

“Huh?” Priscila didn’t understand her words.

“Ho~ she definitely is her descendant, able to take the blow even just being a peak Godhood,” said the Eternal Golem.

Assid’s head looked down as his eyes turned sharp. He took a really long sigh.

Kesya shook her head as her eyes turned sharp.

“What? Why is everyone suddenly silent? Hahaha!” chuckled the Eternal Golem before it took a glance at Graham.

“You might withstand the Golem’s Petrification. However, you cannot protect than one person, a shame, hahaha!” laughed the Eternal Golem

Graham shook his head as his eyes suddenly turned that from a glare to a pity.

“What’s with that look?!” said Eternal Golem as it saw the look Graham gave it.

“Taboo,” muttered Graham.

“Huh? What are you talking about?”

Jin furrowed his eyebrows in confusion before his pupils constricted. All of the group’s eyes except Graham himself slowly took a glance against a young man.

“Gh?” the Eternal Golem looked at ‘Torga’s son’

“L-Lyon…?” muttered Jin before he nervously gulped.

Suddenly, the cry of a monkey reverberated in the sky along with a roar of a dragon. The young man’s back shimmered an illuminating flash of glow before two names were written on it.

‘True Dragon’

‘Devil Ape’
