Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

The Lionheart Tournament continued with four matches being held everyday.

On the fifth day, only four participants of each Division remained and they would fight until only two remained.

On the sixth day, the final two would fight, and on the Seventh Day the remaining participant would enter the Semi-Finals.

A one day break would be held before the Semi Finals to allow the participants to fully recover their strength before their final matches.

The next day, the Elite Four would fight until only two remained, who would then fight in the Final match.

The winner would of course become the Champion of the Lionheart Tournament and receive the prizes that would make him the envy of every member of the young generation. Of course, the Second Place opponent would also receive some decent rewards, but it was nothing compared to the Grand Prize, where Iris' happiness was at stake.

Today was the Fifth Day of the Tournament and Lux easily defeated his opponent without breaking a sweat.

The Boar got lucky and managed to defeat an opponent who received a terrible injury during his previous match and had entered a comatose state. Because of this, it won by default, allowing it to proceed to its next match without even lifting its hoof.

The skinny swordsman also won his match. If one of the two Kings, Gilmore, didn't make any blunders, the mysterious swordsman and him would fight at the Final Division Match. This was a match up that everyone was looking forward to watching.

Nero had also successfully won his battle, and would face the last member of the Four Kings. If he managed to overcome this obstacle, he would become the Division Winner, and advance to the Semi-Finals, alongside the other Semi-Finalists.

"You know, having come this far, I realized one thing," the boar said as it ate some bacon. "If we all win our respective matches, we will enter the Semi-Finals and fight each other. If one of us becomes the Champion, then that means that it is still the win of the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen! I'm so excited."

"I'm not a member of your League of Extraordinary Gentlemen," Lux replied in an irritated tone as he watched the boar eat the bacon that he had ordered for himself. "Also, why are you here? Can't you let people eat in peace?"

"One moment, I'm still eating," the Boar replied. "It's not all the time I get to eat free food paid for by others. But, when I do, I make sure to eat everything."

"Excuse me? I didn't give you permission to eat my food."

"Please don't disturb me while I eat. Didn't you learn good manners and proper conduct?"

Lux sighed as he waved for the waitress to get another order.

"Can I have another bowl of bacon?" Lux asked. "And one bowl of stir fried noodles."

"I'd like to have some pork chops please,'' the Boar said to the waitress. "Also, add some ham on the side, thank you."

The waitress smiled and bowed her head before leaving the two alone.

"Swordy will definitely beat that wimpy blondie and become the Division Winner," the Boar said as it waited for its order to arrive. "I'm worried about you. It is certain that the winner of tomorrow's match will be one of the Five Overlords. That means that you will have to face someone strong before you become the Division Winner."

"Just worry about yourself, okay?" Lux snapped. "You just got lucky that your opponent was in a coma. If not, you wouldn't even be standing here right now."

The Boar chuckled before wagging its hoof at the chubby teenager, who was fighting the strong urge to stab the boar's nose with a fork.

"He got lucky," the Boar stated. "If he fought me, he might not even be able to keep his life. So this is a blessing for him."

Lux rolled his eyes at the shameless boar, who he was certain would immediately be defeated after it faced the winner of tomorrow's match for its Division.

Right now, there were two matches that he would like to see, and they was none other than Nero's fight with a King of the young generation, as well as the mysterious swordsman's battle with Gilmore, who was the Prince of the Axton Kingdom, and was said to be the strongest member of the Four Kings.

It was at that moment when Nero, Gilmore, as well as the rest of their Elite Group entered the restaurant that was reserved for the contestants of the tournament.

The moment they saw the chubby teenager and the Boar eating together, they decided to walk in their direction to give the two a greeting, and a bit of intimidation.

"Well, well, well, look who's here, it's the chubby gang," Gilmore said in a teasing tone. "Having your last meals before you lose in your next matches?"

The Boar gave the blondie a side-long glance before shifting its attention to Lux.

"The loser of tomorrow's battle is talking to me," the Boar said. "What should I do? Should I give him my autograph so that he can keep it as a memento after he loses to Little Swordy?"

"Good idea," Lux replied. "I'm sure that he will treasure it and make it his family heirloom. After all, it was signed by one of the Final Four that will enter the Semi-Finals."

Although Lux knew in his heart that the Boar couldn't possibly enter the final four, he couldn't possibly ignore it after their rivals were talking smack about them.

"Good idea," the Boar took a small scroll from its storage ring and placed it on top of the table.

There were some words written on it, but Lux wasn't too interested to take a look at it. The Boar then dipped its hoof in one of the sauces that Lux had ordered beforehand and stamped it on the scroll.

"Here you go," the Boar said as it handed the scroll with its hoof print to the blondie whose expression was similar to someone that had eaten a fly. "I don't mind if you make this your family heirloom. You should be honored that I even took the effort to give you my autograph."

Gilmore didn't accept the scroll that the Boar was offering to him. Instead, his pupils changed color for a brief moment.

Immediately, the scroll on the boar's hooves burst into purple flames, which made the latter squeal in shock.

"You're lucky that you're not in my division," Gilmore stated. "Otherwise, I would have already turned you into roast pork."

"Stick and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me," the Boar replied after it had regained its composure.

Before Gilmore could even retort, Bruno, the High-Ranking judge of the tournament entered the restaurant.

When he saw the Boar, he immediately approached it with a scowl on his face.

"Oi! Where is the scroll that the Headmaster gave you?" Bruno asked. "Didn't he tell you that it was something that was supposed to be passed to me before the match began because it was something important?"

The Boar suddenly said "Ah!" before it rummaged through its storage ring.

Giimore suddenly had a bad premonition, so he decided to walk away while he still could. However, Bruno saw a part of the burnt up scroll on the floor and his face became extremely serious.

The stamp of the Headmaster could still be seen at the corner of the remaining part of the scroll, which made Bruno's face turn livid.

"You burned the official document of the academy?" Bruno said in a tone that reeked of bad vibes. "You dare?!"

"Um, it wasn't me that burned it," the Boar pointed at Blondie who was almost outside the door of the restaurant. "It was him that burned it."

Bruno turned around and saw the Prince of the Axton Kingdom casually walking out of the restaurant as if he was just taking a stroll.

Before Gilmore could even take a step outside of the restaurant, a large hand rested on his shoulder, holding him in place.

"Gilmore Axton, how about you and I have a little talk?" Bruno asked. "Don't worry. We will settle this matter before your match tomorrow. Come with me to the Headmaster's office."

Bruno didn't even give Gilmore a chance to explain his side of the matter before he teleported both of them out of the restaurant.

Nero and the other members of their Elite Group made themselves scarce and left the Boar and the chubby teenager alone.

They had a feeling that if they remained longer, the Boar might do something stupid again and involve them in the mess that it created.

Lux chuckled when he saw Nero and his comrades retreat far from their location. Even though the Boar was irritating, it managed to bring trouble to their opponents, which was a plus in his book.

In truth, he sensed that Nero and Gilmore were using some kind of appraising tool to check his, and the Boar's bodies. Naturally, he knew that they were trying to confirm whether he was the "Half-Elf" they were looking for or not.

Fortunately, the Mask of a Thousand Faces wasn't a simple artifact and no matter how many times they tried to use their anti-illusion artifacts, the results would always be the same.

"Here's your order," the waitress arrived a few minutes later and delivered their orders.

Lux ate his meal in a casual manner, while the Boar ate like a pig, leaving nothing behind. After it finished eating, it immediately left without saying a word, which left the Half-Elf dumbstruck.

It was only after Lux was about to pay for the meal that he realized what the Boar had done. Clearly, the Boar was a Dine-and-Dash type of creature, which made the Half-Elf wish that the one he would be facing in the next match, was the chubby Boar that was quite good at getting on everyone's nerves.
