ICE EMPEROR

THE TRUTH BEHIND THE SECRET

“Now describe..”.

Hearing that command made me inevitably have to explain from beginning to end. But it was very troublesome, if only there was projector magic or something like that, but I could not use it.

“What's up?” Said the elder Kars who had lost his patience.

Never mind, just tell them what they want to hear...

“I will tell you, the beginning where I met Eternal Snow..” replied Yugi.

Finally I told her where I was betrayed for the first time and it was by my own new party. Then chased by wolf monsters until trapped in a cave.

“In that cave, I was led by a voice. There I saw a shining sword embedded in a large block of ice. Of course I did not take it straight away. I thought there might be a trap if I took the sword.” For a moment Yugi paused his words while taking a slow breath. “But suddenly a voice called out to me again, as I looked at the source of the sound, the sword blinked several times. At that time I was surprised, it turned out that the sword had guided me..”.

[“...”] While Yui was still in an artificial dimension, she just sat quietly listening to an explanation from Yugi about the beginning of their meeting.

“And that's what he told me... The sword was Eternal Snow, he said if I was the next successor of the Eternal Snow God Sword.” Finally Yugi finishes his story, there are some that Yugi keeps secret about the artificial dimension that is Yugi's training ground before removing Eternal Snow from his seal.

“No way...” Everyone is fixed on the source of the voice that distrusts Yugi's story. “Because basically Eternal Snow can only be used by the descendants of the emperor a thousand years ago.It should be the successor is Princess Elsa or Elna.” Ares.

“I am also curious about it, because Eternal Snow himself said that in my body there is blood from the descendants of past emperors Reply Yugi.

“Then can you tell me about your previous life before becoming an adventurer?” asked Pieros who had previously only silently observed.

Hearing the request made Yugi's heart waver, he did not want to remember the incident where his parents were taken away from him. Yugi lowered his head down with a sad look.

Elsa who saw the sad looking Yugi immediately replied to the elder with her words. “It's enough, isn't your question too exaggerated elder Pieros..”

“Sorry Princess Elsa, but it is important to know who this Yugi adventurer really is..” Elder Pieros said calmly.

“But-..”

“Nothing Princess Elsa... I will tell you.” Cut off Yugi while looking at Elder Pieros with a stern look. “I live on the plains of the kingdom of Aries on the banks of the river, there we live simply... I only have a father and mother who are highly respected adventurers due to their unusual abilities. My father was an expert in using Wind magic, and my mother controlled Water magic. They are often referred to as combined magic users. Because the magic of Wind and Water is the basic magic to create Ice. And I myself, am a user of Ice magic, which strangely I cannot use Wind magic like my father.” Yugi pauses his story while remembering the incident where he lost his father and mother. “Eight years ago, an event occurred where I lost both my parents. At that time.a fire occurred, my house was destroyed in the fire, and there are still two of my parents who have not saved themselves.” Tears slowly slid from Yugi's left eye, holding himself back from being fragile before everyone, his body trembled with grief. Elna, who saw Yugi's fragile state, wanted to feel like she was hugging the person she already considered her own brother. But his actions were stopped by his mother. “After the blaze disappeared, all that was left there was the ashes of my house.”

“Mother, why did you stop me, I want to accompany brother Yugi..” said Elna slowly.

“Relax my son, this is not the right time.” replied the queen, finally Elna can only obey the words of her mother.

“How about the rest of those eight years, do you live alone?” ask Ares.

“When I was adopted by a grandfather, the rest of my life I devoted to grandfather who had been willing to take care of me. I lived under his guidance, grandfather taught me to farm and gave me a general knowledge of the history of the kingdom. In addition, my grandfather also taught me how to make medicine from various herbs. The only thing he didn't teach me was how to use magic. But since my grandfather died, he told me to continue to live and find happiness behind my dreams.” said Yugi who ended the story.

Thorn said after hearing Yugi's explanation. “In other words you have only been an adventurer since the death of your adoptive grandfather.”.

Yugi just nodded weakly without a single word coming out of his mouth.

“Hhhmmm.. In other words, it could be that Yugi's father or mother is a descendant of past Emperors that we do not know.” Kars Say.

The other elders began to think about Yugi's explanation which they thought was strange. Of course this was definitely not a coincidence, if it was true that one of Yugi's parents was a descendant of the emperor in the past, then...

“To be more sure, adventurer Yugi, can you call the Spirit Eternal Snow..?” ask elder Thorn.

“Sorry, it looks like he won't come out..” replied Yugi soberly.

“But we need an explanation from him, why he chose you as his successor.” said elder Pieros.

The other elder nodded in agreement, which made Yugi not know what to do.

How is this, what should I do...

Yui who saw the incident could only sit withholding anger due to the greed of the elders who wanted to meet him. Unable to bear the sight of her master being cornered, Yui stood up from her seat and disappeared from the artificial dimension.

Suddenly a whitish blue light shrouded the royal meeting place, in front of Yugi floated a sword, it was Eternal Snow that Yui was inhabiting. Behind that dazzling beam, Yui came out who then held the Eternal Snow Sword in her right hand.

“You four elders are very stubborn.If you know, I can't bear to hear your questions that hurt my master's heart.” Said Yui in a flat voice plus her coldness.

Everyone was taken aback by the arrival of a white haired woman with sky blue eyes and a beautiful face as smooth as snow. Her clothes that were like the Princess were bluish-white with snow patterns everywhere. His gaze looked at everyone especially the four elders who were being shocked to see Yui.

“What do you need from me?” ask Yui flatly.

“You, is it true that the Dragon God Elements.?” thorn asked with an unreliable face.

“That's how, this is me in human form, you can call me Yui, therefore my name is in this form.” Yui replied with her acuh.

“Y-yui..”

“For you elders, you must call me politely. I am the Dragon God.” Firmly Yui cut Thorn's words and made the four elders shocked.

“Yui, what are you saying?” yugi asked who was surprised at Yui's disrespectful words to the older man.

“No problem, we are indeed disrespectful to the Dragon God who has been protecting us for a long time. Forgive us for our sassness, Miss Yui.” Thorn said.

“Eemmm. So what do you want to ask me?” asked Yui arrogantly.

‘Either why, it seems that Yui does not like those four elders.’ Inner Yugi.

“Why did you choose adventurer Yugi..?” ask Kars.

Yui who heard the question just stared at him flatly, with a sigh of fatigue she told a story. “A thousand years ago, on the mainland of Northern Esla there was a terrible earthquake. My master believes that this is a sign of the birth of a new evil force. The earthquake also not only struck this kingdom, but all the land on this earth also felt the same. Then because my master felt that there was a bad feeling in the future, for the sake of protecting this world, he sealed me in the hope that a new hero would be born that would annihilate the evil power.” Yui sits on Yugi's lap comfortably, and it draws the ire of two sisters, Elsa and Elna. Yui who realized it didn't care and continued her story. “And he is now before all of you, a legendary hero who will make history on the land of the greatest witches, he will become emperor among emperors. He will stand on the highest peak and be the strongest among the strongest.” Yui said at length.

Hearing Yui's explanation, everyone was again taken aback by Yui's profound statement. While Yugi can only curse annoyed because Yui overestimates himself too much.

“You mean, Adventurer Yugi...?” ask Pieros.

“Who else, you guys should be respectful to him. because he is the successor of the sword of the Eternal Snow God.” Said Yui with her arrogant tone.

All the elders stood up then saluted Yugi. “Pardon our sassness, Mr. Yugi..” they said simultaneously.

“Yui, look what you've done.” Yugi said furiously.

“Yugi, this is your destiny, I've told you the secret I've been keeping to you. Now you know, you are the savior that my master had been waiting for a thousand years ago. Don't make his hopes perish..”

Hearing Yui's serious words, I couldn't reply, for the first time, I saw a different side of Yui.

“So this is what you mean..” said Yugi who remembers the secret hidden by Yui.

“Ya, you think I'm kidding.” reply Yui. Looking back at the elders, Yui asked them again. “Is there any other questions?”

Ares looked at Yui with a serious look. “How about the Six God Dragon Elements?”

“For them I have only sensed the two presence of the Element Dragon, namely the Wind And Fire Dragon God, they have already fully risen by now.” Answer Yui.

“Means already the Three Elements Dragon Gods that rose up including those of Mr. Yugi.” Speak the elder Kars.

“Ehehehehe Yugi was only able to laugh blandly because he was called so politely by the elders.

“How about the other four?” ask Pieros.

Yui simply shook her head while leaning against the chest of the field belonging to Yugi. Yui's actions are a war flag for Elsa and Elna. The challenge given by Yui, they will accept.

“Elna my sister, it looks like she is challenging us..” Elsa said annoyedly.

Inexplicably Yugi can see the hostile aura of Elsa and Elna being shown to Yui, to the point that it looks like there are electric sparks pitting between the eyes of the three of them.

“It looks like today's meeting we end up here.” said Thorn who was approved by the others. Everyone started to stand up from their seats and left the meeting room.

“Hey you...” said Elna in an annoyed tone. “Until when do you want to stick to Yugi?”

“What's wrong..” reply Yui who is now holding Yugi's right arm.

“Kaaaauuuu..” upset Elna for hearing a reply from Yui as if challenging her.

“Partially I have a name yes, my name is Y-U-I..” Yui said with emphasis on each name.

“K-you both calm down.” Yugi tried to break them.

“Elsa...” call the king on the eldest daughter.

“What's dad?”

“You accompany Yugi tonight.” Reulad.

“Heeee... why?” surprised Elsa.

“Listen to mother..” now it is the queen's turn to speak. “Get Yugi's heart, we support you.. oh yes, don't forget to invite your sister, it seems like she also likes Yugi.” Seeing Elna quarrel with Yui.

Hearing the agreement of both parents made Elsa become embarrassed with a face that was perfectly reddened. It was with pleasure that Elsa answered. “Iya, Sure.” Elsa looked at Yugi like a prey ready to eat.

“Bbrrrrr... Why is my body goosebumps like this?” ask Yugi who it is.

“Listen well little brother, Yugi is my Master, in other words he is just for me. I won't let you have it.” Yui Say.

“Can't be like that, brother Yugi is mine, I'm entitled to have it.” Reply Elna.

“What did you say..” upset Yui.

“Why hah...” reply Elna do not want to lose.

“Y-yugi..” said Elsa whispered near Yugi.

“What's Elsa, I'm busy divorcing them.” Yugi's reply is overwhelmed facing two people who are fighting a bacot.

“Eemmmhh...” out of annoyance ignored, Elsa pulls Yugi to stay away from them.

“Silent you, Yugi it's mine point.” Shouted Yui.

“No, brother Yugi is mine.” reply Elna would not budge.

As they argued, Yugi was no longer there. The first to realize that was Yui.

“Eh, where is Mr...?”

“Kak yugi where?”

When they realized that one more person was not in this room, they shouted. “ELSAAAAAAA/SISTER ELSAAAAAAAAAAA.

At the palace grounds, where beauty can be seen here. If night falls, this park will look very charming in moonlight and decorated with stars in the sky. Plus fireflies that glitter add to the beauty of this palace garden. Elsa and Yugi are sitting on a long swing at the park.

“Neee Yugi, do you remember what I told you back then?” ask Elsa.

“Yes, for the first time princess Elsa asked me for something. Even though we were not too close. But I'm happy to be asked for help by you. but well, sorry I can't fulfill it.” Said Yugi while scratching his back head groggy.

“It's okay, I'm even happy because you didn't fulfill it, otherwise.. Maybe now I'm not here anymore.” Said Elsa in a relieved tone.

“Oh yes what about the King and Queen, did they get in trouble because I cancelled your match at that time?” yugi asked in a somewhat frightened tone because from the meeting King Reulad continued to look at Yugi with a sharp look as if getting prey.

“No, everything is fine.. although dad is still angry anyway.” Answer Elsa calmly.

‘Already expected, just deserved from earlier the king just kept looking at me.’ Inner Yugi with a sad tone in his heart.

“But take it easy, King Rouxias forgives you and is still in a relationship with this kingdom. Similarly to Rexas, he was very happy about the fight back then, and he also gave me a message for you, he said he wanted to fight again with you if it healed later.” Elsa said with a faint smile.

“That's not happy anyway, it looks like he wants to beat me to the brink if he has to duel again later with him.” Said Yugi lethargicly.

“I don't think so, judging by his face back then... Rexas, he kind of thinks of you as his friend.” Reply Elsa.

“Which may be the one who hinders his marriage with you regards me as a friend, which there may be a rival.. uh.” Yugi only realized, the duel at that time Rexas seemed to enjoy it very much. Although in the end he lost due to shock hearing rejection from Elsa.

“Yup, he considers you his Rival..” Elsa said in a pleased tone.

“So yes, my first rival..” Yugi said with a smile. “Continue, how are your relationships?”

“For now we agreed to be friends again.. as before.” Answer Elsa.

“So yes, thank goodness..” Yugi looked at the sky that night with a meaningful smile. Elsa who saw Yugi's charming smile in the moonlight made her heart skip a beat. Time stopped for her, for Elsa this was a very precious moment.

“Eemmmhhh..” with the courage that has been collected, Elsa grasps the hand of Yugi who is beside her.

Yugi who felt the grip of someone's hand, he looked at the origin of the hand, in his line of sight, Elsa's hand clasped her hand while putting on a shy face of the cat.

I don't know what I feel, Elsa looks at me with her beautiful eyes, her mane blown by the night breeze, adding to her beauty that is clearly visible in the beautiful full moon. Our faces were close to each other, Elsa's eyes were closed with her rancid lips slightly open. I was thinking, are we gonna do that...

“Ah..”

But suddenly I thought of someone who was always with me. I feel guilty about something...

I grabbed Elsa's shoulders and stopped her actions.

“Yugi...” says Elsa slowly. He could see Yugi turning his face the other way, as if rejecting him. It makes Elsa become moody and a bit away from Yugi.

“Sorry Elsa...” said Yugi with regret.

“It's okay..” reply Elsa while shaking her head.

The atmosphere became awkward between them, because the silence was the sound of crickets until it was heard by them. But the atmosphere instantly collapsed instantly...

“Hey, what are you doing hah..” shouted a voice from a distance. Yugi and Elsa look at the source of the sound, where they can see Yui and Elna running towards them. “Finally I found you Yugi..” said Yui who immediately hugged Yugi from the front.

“Y-yui..” says Yugi staggered.

“Stop your behavior base cat garonggg..” Elna tried to pull Yui with all her might.

“Who do you call a child's basic ayaammm.” Yui with all her might hugged Yugi to not let go.

“Ihihihihihihihi.” Elsa was only able to laugh a little at their ridiculous manner. While Yugi is troubled to face two people who continue to fight over it.

Maybe not the time, Yugi. I will keep waiting for you...
