Everyone's attention unconsciously turned to the Emperor.

"This matter concerns with Yulrir." The Emperor started slowly.

Upon hearing his own name, Yulrir's brow twitched up behind his mask. Theo's face also blackened and looked at the emperor with cold calculating eyes.

"You all know that ever since Yulrir emerged from the Ancient Realm Portal, everyone who was present in the earlier incident had already noticed his own potential." The emperor paused.

Yulrir frowned but instead of saying anything, he just nodded curtly.

The emperor silently observed Yulrir's reaction and continued. "By now, the fact that Yulrir had broken through the Saint rank earlier than anyone in the publicized records, were now had been investigated and well-known by many of the martial institutions. I have even received lots of petition for them to fix a personal or business meet-up with you." The emperor ended the statement with a sigh.

The room's atmosphere became silent and antsy looks were all painted on the faces of Theo and Terra. Although Yulrir's face is hidden behind the mask, a frown had also formed in it.

Terra impatiently huffed and said, "Can His Majesty expound this please?"

"Let me get things straight then, I would like to offer a proposal for Yulrir's protection." The emperor said with a serious face.

"Protection??? Don't tell me..." The Headmaster felt like he had witnessed a deja vu.

The emperor turned his head to the Headmaster and nodded with a wry smile. He then turned his head back to Yulrir who tilted his head slightly in confusion.

"I would like to ask Yulrir to be my son's royal concubine."

Even the crows will be embarrassed to caw right now given with awkward atmosphere.

Theo's face transformation from calm to furious was too obvious for the emperor not notice. The emperor then sighed and explained hurriedly, "Don't worry... It is just a concubine-in-name only. Yulrir doesn't need to do what concubines do."

(A/N: Like a fake concubine, or of someone for a title only. (;・'д・') )

The Headmaster and Terra frowned upon hearing the emperor's proposition. Terra was the first one to react and wildly flicked her sleeves sidewards. "I'm sorry His Majesty but I oppose on this. I don't think It'll be good for my disciple to be subjected to this arrangement." Terra said in a grave tone. In her mind, it'll be really bad for Yulrir to be exposed like this in public as the risk of him being exposed as an 'omega' will be higher.

The Headmaster snorted coldly and narrowed his eyes at the emperor. "We've talked about this back then, right? I told you that no matter what, I will oppose to this. Yulrir is not only my student but also My Disciple's fated mate."

"I'm not telling this to break up the two. We just needed to publicize it and with that, I'm sure that those transcendent powerhouses who are after Yulrir will think twice and will stop roping Yulrir in." The emperor explained slowly with an amiable smile on his face. It was true, if the Royalty had declared their interest in Yulrir, then these transcendent powerhouses will unhesitatingly stop their pursuit. Afterall, not giving the Emperor a face is the same as not giving the country a face. But aside from this reason, the Emperor was trying to get to the good sides of Yulrir. He knew that Yulrir has something special in him, if not, why would he wear the concealment mask. Also, within the emperor's mind, he was silently scheming that somehow, even it's only a small chance... His son would be able to produce an heir from the talented young man. Although it is only a minuscule chance, he wanted to bet on it. Afterall, someone who had a monstrous talent like Yulrir, if combined with his son's natural talent... There's no doubt that their offspring is someone with high potential. As what the other's said, a dragon would not give birth to a dog.
