27.Emperor's Return I

27.Emperor's Return I

Akira had a gloomy face after his mother-in-law, Ui Wakana stayed in his house. Albion, the beloved daughter of Ui went by the name Chisato as her civilian identity.

Anyway, the reason for Akira's zombie like behaviour was not because he was fighting mutants but more like fighting the urge to roar at his mother-in-law's childish nature.

'How did it happened like this?'

'What have I done wrong?'

He felt like he got his heart smashed by a large hammer and his precious heart was on the verge of crumbling.

His mother-in-law had been very helpful with the house chores but her childish personality was what driven Akira on the edge of insanity. Her carefree style had pierced Akira's heart like a spear would strike its enemy.

Luckily, Chisato was there to calm him down or he would become a living T-rex itself which could result in the apartment being destroyed. The active volcano was nearly erupted but thanks to his wife persuasion, it was cooled down.

Furthermore, Chisato helped Akira to increase his tolerance to Ui who was 38 years old lady with the appearance of an elementary student. Anyone would mistake her as a child you know what they say, 'never judge someone by his/her appearance unless you like getting into trouble.'

A sight of a human being plugged in like a robot was visible one of the private room in the sickbay. Susan was keying in the codes in the device at an incredible speed.

Her delicate fingers appeared to be typing nonsense but each alphabet and word she type was accurate. Those ten fingers do not present themselves as being typing but rather dancing on the keyboard buttons.

Livius was resting in the capsule with both eyes closed. He looked calm even in his sleep. Susan managed to catch a glimpse of the youth face which gave her a familiar warm feeling.

'Just hold on a little longer papa!'

'I'll restore your memories… i promise.'

The maiden was in cold sweat during the procedure but it did not obstruct her from her duty. Her father was one of the main reasons for her to move on in life.

Years ago, two figures were standing at the beach on an unknown planet watching the beautiful sunset. The male humanoid figure was glancing at the maiden behind him while his whole body was facing the sunset.

"Papa, where are you going?!"

"My dear Susan, Raven dosen't need me so I have to move out."

"Why?! You're the Emperor and the Father of the nation!"

"So why?! Why?!"

"It's because ICE does not need my present during the time of peace."

"Plus, ICE has the four of the you as its caretaker."

The father conveyed his message to the daughter while his right hand raises up and landed on her head.

"The world is indeed unfair but you'll achieve some peace if you work hard."

"The world was designed to break every rational and intelligent living things no matter what happened."

"My time is nearly up but when the times come, I will return back."

"Give my regards to your siblings, my princess."

"Goodbye, Susan."

The younger Susan started crying when her father began moving forward toward the sunset before eventually disappeared.

Livius was still asleep in the capsule when suddenly a violent quake caused the capsule glass to crack thus allowing the healing liquid to flow out.

Suddenly, the capsule exploded causing chaos in the base. The military personnel surrounded the room at both the front door and outside.

Susan along with the inner squad were on standby at the front door just in case if there was any intruder trying to escape.

Horus on the other hand was with the outer squad covering the possible escape route on the outside.

Both of them were tense because if the enemy was someone or something capable of breaching the Emperor's private ward, then it would not just be an ordinary problem but major one.

[Horus, we got not visual. What about you?]

[Negative, Aneue.]

[Then, what should we should?]

[Take at least 4 men with you and we'll breached together on my count. Ready?]

[I was born ready.]

[3… 2… 1. NOW!]

Both squads immediately charged in but something unexpected happened. There was no intruder on sight, only a boy standing without his top cloth. A slightly musculine scene just got displayed before the witness.

"Do you guys always do this when someone is changing?"

The witnesses were dumbfounded at the sight of a powerful person changing cloth without a slightest care despite his privacy got intruded.

Susan was the only one who had her face reddened with embarrassment because it was her idea of charging into the room.

"How long are you guys planning on- Uwaah!"

"Pervert!"

Susan who was still embarrass unconsciously kicked the youth, sending him flying to the sky while leaving a humanoid shape hole on the ceiling.

On the other hand, Horus and the rest were standing there continue being in their dumbfounded state after witnessing Susan kicked the most powerful person in the empire into the sky.

An hours later, both Horus and Susan were standing obediently while facing Livius with his annoying face being displayed.

"So tell me my beloved son and daughter. Whose bright idea was it to charge in my room while I was changing my attire?"

Horus was silently glancing at Susan a few time without her realising that he was selling her out.

"Horus, leave us."

"As you wish, Father."

"I'll take my leave first, Aneue."

Horus managed to give his sister a mischievous triggering Susan's killing intent but he fled the immediately. The youth snapped his fingers thus nullifying the intent.

"Susan, how long do you intent to behave like this?"

"B-But, Papa-"

"You're the elder sister to both him and Vlad yet you're acting like a 10 year old child."

"What am I gonna do with you huh?"

"My twillight princess."
