Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate-Novel

Chapter 1077 Fighting For Love [Part 1]

Everyone ate lunch and enjoyed the unique delicacies of the Rowan Tribe.

Maximilian and Quiana appeared a few minutes later, and both of their eyes were a little red from crying.

Dahlia already knew that Lux was Cai's fiance.

However, she only heard from Rose today that her lover was also coming to visit her.

This was the first time that she had heard about this, so she looked at the quiet boy, who was eating peacefully beside her daughter, Rose.

Keane was a good-looking guy, even when he had been skinny in the past. This was one of the reasons why Cai had invited him to the League of the Extraordinary Gentlemen during the tournament at Barbatos Academy.

Now that the swordsman had been eating well, he was no longer skinny, and his good looks were enhanced even more, making Dahlia nod her head in approval.

A glance was enough to tell her that the handsome boy had a good head on his shoulders and was pursuing her daughter with clear intentions.

Liam, on the other hand, didn't say much and only ate in silence. Just like any over-protective father, he wasn't really too happy of hearing the news of his daughters gaining lovers without his approval.

He would glance at Lux and Keane from time to time as if taking notes of their body measurements for the two ice coffins that he was going to build in his free time, which would perfectly fit the two boys, if they ever happen to suddenly kick the bucket inside the Rowan Tribe's Ancestral Lands.

Lunch ended without any bloodshed, but Lux and Keane knew that it was only a matter of time before they confronted their father-in-law, who didn't seem to be fond of the two of them.

Just as they were thinking about how to approach Cai's and Rose's father, the middle-aged man approached them first and simply told them to follow him.

Cai and Rose looked at their lovers and gave both of them a thumbs up as if assuring them that everything was going to be fine.

Lux smiled and nodded his head, while Keane looked at Rose with the "I'll convince him" look on his face.

Liam took the two young men to the northern edge of the Ancestral Lands, where towering pine trees extended for miles on end.

They headed deeper into the Pine Forest as if they were only taking a casual stroll.

Half an hour later, Liam stopped walking and turned around to look at the two young men who had dared to touch his two precious daughters.

"What is your relationship with my daughter?" Liam asked the Half-Elf, who was Cai's fiance.

'Your daughter calls me Daddy, and I've already managed to touch fourth base', was what Lux wanted to say.

But he knew that saying this would only enrage Liam, so he decided to tone it down for a bit to make a good first impression.

"Cai is my Fiancee, and we are very much in love with each other," Lux replied with a solemn expression on his face. "I hope that you will give me your blessing, Father."

Liam didn't say anything to Lux's reply and simply shifted his attention to Keane, waiting for his answer.

"I love Rose, and I want to be with her forever," Keane replied. "I hope that you will give us your blessings, Sir Liam."

Cai's and Rose's father didn't say anything as he looked at the two young men in front of him.

A few minutes of silence passed before the middle-aged man spoke.

"I have raised my daughters with love and care," Liam said. "I also knew that, sooner or later, this time would come, and I now recall the words that my father-in-law told me when I asked for Dahlia's hand in marriage.

"Those same words, I will say to you. Only when I am satisfied with your answer will I acknowledge the two of you as my daughters' significant other."

Liam paused a bit before summoning a silver spear in his hand.

"Beat me, and I will give you my blessings," Liam replied. "Fail, and you can forget being with my daughter in this lifetime."

Lux and Keane were already expecting this to happen.

Both boys were confident in their strength, so they nodded their heads in agreement.

"Keane, you can go first," Lux said. "I'll fight Father later."

Just as the swordsman was about to nod his head, Liam snorted.

"You don't need to fight me one-on-one," Liam stated. "The two of you will fight me at the same time."

Lux and Keane glanced at each other and nodded their heads synchronously.

Since Liam was asking for a beating, they would give him what he wanted and end the battle as soon as they could.

However, just as soon as Lux summoned his spear, Calypso and Keane unsheathed his sword, a magic circle expanded under Liam's feet, covering the entirety of the Pine Forest in the span of a few seconds.

A moment later, the forest disappeared, and the two teenagers found themselves on what seemed to be an ancient battlefield.

"Come!" Liam declared.

Lux wanted to end the battle as soon as possible, so he summoned his Undead Legion to swarm his father-in-law… or at least, that was what he wanted to do. New chapters are published on NoᴠelFɪre.net - novelenglish.net . bin

However, instead of summoning his Army, nothing happened, making Lux frown.

He then pointed at the ground and activated a fireball spell. But, nothing happened.

There was no ball of flames that hovered in front of his finger, ready to burn anything it touched.

Keane, on the other hand, drew his sword like he always did and took a fighting stance.

The swordsman had felt that this strength decreased drastically, but he wasn't too worried about it.

Even without his other abilities, he was still a swordsman who had mastered the ways of the sword.

Liam stood with a spear in his hand and a solemn expression on his face.

"Inside this place, everyone is just an ordinary mortal," Liam explained. "Both of you can attack me at the same time. If either of you manage to wound me or land a blow on my body, you will pass my test and receive my blessing."

Keane, who had already taken a fighting stance, charged at Liam with the determination to win. He wanted to fight against his future father-in-law fair and square without any interference.

He had talked to Lux through their Guild Chat, and the latter respected his friend's decision.

The sword clashed with the spear, and the sound of weapons clashing against each other reverberated inside the ancient battlefield.

Lux knew that Keane was a skilled swordsman, so he believed that he would emerge victorious against Liam.

However, as the two warriors exchanged blows with each other, Lux realized one thing.

Liam was actually a spearmaster, and he dodged, blocked, and deflected all of Keane's blows with ease.

But that wasn't all.

Liam would also counterattack, and each time he did, his spear almost drew his opponent's blood.

Keane barely dodged the Spear Master's attacks, which made Lux understand that the only way to beat their father-in-law was to gang up on him and attack him from his blind spot.

But, that was easier said than done.
