The 5 Elemental Lord
The laughter of a family
Feeling quite satisfied, they took off their embrace and looked at each other with happy smiles. Especially Zeno, he seemed to be acting like a child in front of his family, no matter if Nora and Turse were embarrassed themselves seeing Zeno suddenly change.
To be honest, Nora and Turse did not feel ashamed, they were also quite happy to see the happy Zeno acting like a child again.
“Daddy, you are still quite healthy huh, mom really loves you in the continent of Artrik.” Zhuo walked up to Fang Yoshi and hugged his father. Somehow, he also felt calm again to see his father who was still healthy.
“Aurrora..” Fang Yoshi did not continue his inner voice, what he focused on was welcoming the return of his son who had been gone for fifteen years in a place far away from this continent. After all who can't stem his tears when he meets his son who's been gone for years.
That was also what Zeno felt as a child who had never met his father, even when he was born, he had absolutely no idea who his real father was. But when he searches for his father, he relies only on a close bond between a father and son.
They finally let go of the embrace after relieving the longing in their hearts.
Zeno tried to pinch himself, hoping that what he saw was not a dream. Because of what he feared, actually all this time he was dreaming long after being killed by Akram, and he rose from the dead it was part of a dream anyway. Because Zeno did not understand, even without a reason why he could rise himself from a death.
“No, this is not a dream.” Zeno thought to himself, he still smiled brightly seeing the events in front of him as a reality.
In between his happiness, Zeno suddenly looked at Selena who was also staring at him while smiling brightly as well. At once Zeno turned his face and remembered something. He felt that he was really lucky, because he knew, there were probably thousands of people there who were not as lucky as him, Selena for example. For some reason Zeno became guilty after killing Daizoru, who was Selena's own father.
But how else, Selena also contributed to the murder of her father, she also already has the deepest hatred for her father. So Zeno came back to his senses, why regret the act he had been doing to kill Daizoru?
Maybe if he became Selena, and saw the happiness of others like what is happening now. She would go home and cry in a corner, remembering that Selena had no family at all. But Zeno thought that Selena was quite great, she still remained strong and had no visible envy, even though Zeno did not know how to fill her heart. Who knew that behind Selena who was smiling brightly, it turned out that in her heart was filled with a cry.
“Hey Zeno, didn't you promise to bring your daughter-in-law home for your mother? At least that way, you can mop up on the noble emperor Fang Tan.” Fang Yoshi laughed out loud as he mocked Fang Tan.
Instantly Zeno forgot about Selena's problem, he immediately faced forward and said, “Wait, I never promised you like that.”
“He even brought three fathers.” Fang Zhuo said as he pointed towards Selena, Nora and Turse. “No, it looks like he has four as there is still one more left in the continent of Artrik.”
“Dad, don't say it like that.” Zeno stared cynically at his father, yet Zhuo did not care about the cynical gaze from Zeno.
Arina shuts her mouth and is surprised, “Four?” After that he also laughed softly and also mocked Fang Tan. “See Fang Tan, even he can bring four for mom.”
“No mother! Don't mind father's words. The three of them are my friends.” Zeno Protest.
Fang Tan instantly lowered his head and looked at them lazily, “That's cheating, Zeno won't even give it one to me.”
“No, I don't mela..”.
“Obviously Zeno forbade him, because conquering the heart of the woman was very difficult. So how could he give to others that easy.” Fang Yuna's voice cut off Zeno's conversation.
Everyone laughed out loud, except for Zeno and also Fang Tan. After all, it was very strange that the twenty-five-year-old first child did not have a partner at all.
“Already, forget. Aren't you tired of standing here?” Fang Yoshi.
“True, after all we have to prepare a big party today.” Fang Yuna said excitedly.
The entire crowd then nodded and also entered into the imperial palace. After all, of course they were all very tired from standing for a long time, let alone Zeno and Zhuo who had just returned from the Artrik continent, even though they also needed rest.

A week has passed....
Koa let out a stammering breath. The shadow continent was truly terrifying, even more terrifying than he had imagined. How not, the article on this continent is filled with an aura of darkness that is very concentrated, even he was like being in a tomb at night.
It was already one week after he made his way here. Getting a ship is also very difficult because there are not many ships that provide access to this terrible continent. But how else, he had to threaten one of the captains of the ship to bring him here. Moreover, he also had to complete the task of emperor Yin.
Koa was really curious about the scroll he was holding, but it felt, he was impossible to open it because it was the same as betraying emperor Yin.
Fortunately, Mare Ennbarum's empire was just as the ship was anchored. Thus, he would have no trouble finding where Mare Ennbarum's empire was hard-earned, so the risk of dealing with unknown people would also be minimal.
“Wait! Who are you to dare enter the imperial palace?” Two soldiers confronted Koa using a crossed spear. The gazes of the soldier also looked extremely terrifying, even himself as the right hand of the Fire Nation emperor must have been killed easily by them.
Koa gulped roughly, but he should have answered their questions. “I am a confidant of the Fire Nation emperor. I assigned him to deliver a letter directly to the emperor Danze.”
The two soldiers stared at each other, but they could not believe it was that easy about what Koa had said. “Can we ask for the scroll of the letter? I will give it to the emperor Danze.”
Koa refused, however what the emperor ordered was, handing over the scroll directly without any intermediaries. So, what Koa did was to prepare to fight when the soldiers attacked him. No matter if he was going to die, the most important thing was that he always remembered the emperor's message in order to give it to him directly.
