"WHAT!?"
All of them were shocked to hear that the Spirit has already decided who is going to be the next God of the Mystic Dragon Heaven. That can only mean that the person is currently inside the room, but there are only a few Beast inside of the Dining Room, and they were, Yuki, Yumie, Katsumi, Aika, Rory, Aria, Mirel, Ike, Lian, Aoi, and Sayaka. Ayame was out of the question, why would she want to rule over the Mystic Dragon Heaven when her Authority is much higher than that? It was also the same with Inari who is the Fox Goddess, but only in the Mortal Realm, and the reason that she can't inherit the Heaven is that she wasn't born in the Mystic Dragon Heaven and only those who are born there are allowed to take the inheritance, even if you are qualified to be the one, if you are not born there, you are going to be rejected.
But if you take out Yuki, Mirel, and Ike who was already rejected by the Red Box, and Aika who was too great for the Inheritance is also out of the topic, but even so, there was still no telling who is going to be the next God. It is still a mystery, but that didn't stop the people inside to be excited while some of them were anxious and nervous at the same time. They can't help but feel nervous, as who doesn't want to be the new God? But it doesn't matter if they don't get the inheritance, as long as the person who will lead will be a good leader and example for all of the people in Mystic Dragon Heaven. Yuki was the only one who wasn't nervous about the current situation, she was more nervous when the Spirit was trying to approach Aika for some reason.
"Yes, all of you have heard of me. I won't drag this out any longer and just say right now who will be the new God of Mystic Dragon Heaven? That person is her…" The Spirit said as he then pointed to the person who had been chosen by him personally, shocking everyone. But their shock was incomparable to what Lian is feeling, out of everyone in the room that knows her. She was the most shocked out of all of them.
"ME!?" Lian pointed at herself as she questioned the Spirit who was currently pointing at her. Never in her life, she would think that she would be the one who would be chosen to be the next Goddess of the Mystic Dragon Heaven. She has little confidence in herself because she knew how soft and clumsy she was in real life, and just by that she knew that handling an entire Heaven would be an impossible task for her. Being a soft leader would not be good for handling an army, that is how she was thought by her Father. Always lead with confidence, and don't be too soft. Be strong, an example to everyone that you are worthy to become the God of Heaven, or else you will only get betrayed by your own army for being too kind/soft. So just thinking about it, it was definitely an impossible task in her eyes.
"Yes, you are the one. You have the purest Soul out of everybody that I have seen. Before my Master died, he ordered me to find a great Leader who would not exploit his/her power for their own needs. What he wants is not a selfish Leader, but a kind and strong one. Out of everyone here, you are the most qualified to become one, my deductions are never wrong, I'm sure this is also what my Master would want to happen if he is here. I hope you can accept this position." The Spirit explained lightly as he then began to think deeply, he was reminiscing about his old Master.
"I have a question… Can the chosen person reject the position?" Yuki asked after a full minute of silence enveloped the Dining Room. All of them were quiet, or in more appropriate words, none of them wanted to talk and they just wanted to see how Lian would react to this offer. Mirel wanted to speak up at first but decided not to because he wanted to see what kind of decision his daughter would make. He doesn't want to be the cause of his daughter's regret if he said to take the offer right here and now, he wants her to grow up and decide for herself, that is one of the few ways to grow up. Making decisions by yourself, without letting anyone influence you.
"Of course, they have the choice to reject the offer. That just means that I would need to find the next worthy person to inherit all the treasures." The Spirit shrugged as if it was not a big deal to reject such a big offer. His answer leaves some of the speechless because they feel like they don't have the freedom to refuse as it is like your destiny to become the new God.
"I see… Lian, the choice is yours. Just tell this man if you want to be the successor of the Mystic Dragon God. No one is forcing you to take it, remember that. Don't be pressured, if you do take the offer, you can guarantee that I will support you in your new journey." Yuki said with absolute confidence as she easily promises to help Lian if she ever needs it, she would be there if she wants some support in controlling and even give her some advice on how to be a good Leader since she has a lot of experience in ruling a whole Planet, even if it was nowhere near as large as an entire Heaven, for her leading it would still be a relatively easy task, the only bad thing is that she would have less time for her family. When Yuki gave Lian her words, the other people also gave their support which eases Lian a lot, and this made her think if she really wants to take it, or not.
Lian knows that she wants it, but because of her lack of confidence, she doesn't see herself as being a good leader for the Mystic Dragon Heaven. She always sees herself as a weakling. Compared to her brother who was a genius in almost every aspect, it only made it worse when growing up, and that is the reason why she doesn't have a lot of confidence in herself. She doesn't always want to rely on others and thinks that this may be the chance to change all of that and if it is. She would not let this chance slip out of her hands. Taking a deep breath, she closes her eyes before opening them with clear determination. This scene made Mirel smile and feel proud for the choice that his daughter was about to make that will change her life forever.
"I accept your offer, Mr. Spirit. I want to be the successor of the Great Mystic Dragon God. I promise that I will not disappoint you, I will work hard to become someone who the Great God can be proud of." Lian said as she stepped forward until she was in front of the Spirit before kneeling to one knee and waiting.
"You made a good choice, this is something you won't regret. I can promise you that. Also, since you are becoming the new God, please call me Kaiser. From this point and in the future, you are now going to be my new Master. I Kaiser, pledge my loyalty to my new Master, Lian Dagart. I shall serve her for the rest of her life, I will be there for her and sacrifice my life if she is in danger. Please accept my Oath to finish the ritual." Kaiser said as his position instantly changed, he was now the one who was kneeling in front of Lian which shocked her a lot. She closes her eyes for a second before opening them and begins to finish the Oath Contract.
"I, Lian Dagart, accept the conditions that Kaiser has given me. I shall be his new Master of Kaiser and be the successor of the Mystic Dragon God. To become the new Goddess of the Mystic Dragon Heaven." Lian Oaths in all seriousness as she then lets out a small wisp of her Soul Realm and begins to connect it with Kaiser's core.
After the two finished their Oath, they felt their ground shaking. But it was not like any ordinary Earthquake, because they can feel like it is caused by a person. All of them were confused at first, but when they heard a loud booming voice, they soon got their answer. But what they didn't know was that they were not just the ones who could hear the loud voice, it was everyone that was living in the Mystic Dragon Heaven.
