Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

Chapter 654 A Match Made In Heaven [Part 2]



After talking to the Elven representatives, Alicia escorted Lux to the other Diplomats of the Six Kingdoms.

This experience allowed Lux to gain a better understanding of which Kingdoms were willing to truly ally themselves with him and BarbaTos Academy.

Aside from the Barbarian Kingdom, the Azov Kingdom, where Val came from, was very eager to have a formal alliance with Barbatos Academy.

For Lux, this was a normal outcome because Val could be considered the strongest member of the young generation in the Azov Kingdom. This meant that the Royal Family paid close attention to his opinions, which ultimately led them to actively pursue an alliance with Barbatos Academy.

A few minutes after Lux and Alicia finished making their rounds, Alexander appeared at the top of the great staircase, catching everyone's attention.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, I would like to thank all of you for coming to celebrate my son's birthday," Alexander said with a smile. "He has now turned seventeen years old. Although he can no longer be considered a boy, he is not yet an adult either. Even so, I have confidence that he will be able to do great things that even those older than him wouldn't be able to do."

It was very rare for Alexander to praise Lux. Because of this, the latter felt his cheeks burning and wondered if his father had drunk a lot of alcohol because he was praising him a lot.

The Headmaster of the Academy, who was not aware of the Half-Elf's thoughts, made a gesture for Lux to come up the staircase and stand by his side, which Lux obeyed with a smile.

The Saint of Barbatos Academy then rested his hand on Lux's shoulder before continuing his speech.

"The date of the expedition for the Gate of Famine is drawing near, and I'm sure that all of you have already made ample preparation for the challenges ahead," Alexander stated. "However, know this. Those who choose to side with us will be treated as friends. Those who don't will of course be treated as strangers.

"The young are filled with passion and never lack the energy to do many things, going beyond their limits. For us adults, we know that there are boundaries that we should pay attention to in order to ensure that everyone gets along to maintain the status quo.

"But, remember this. We Kaizers are an unruly lot. If even one of us is hurt, all of us will fight back."

Alexander gave a smile that wasn't a smile, which made the High-Rankers of the different Kingdoms shudder subconsciously.

Aside from Lux, Iris, and Vera, Alexander had no more family members in the world. If one of them were to suffer any grievances, he would definitely make his anger known to the world.

After making sure that everyone understood the message he wanted to pass along, he raised his hand and made a gesture.

"As you may already know, my daughter, Iris, is Lux's fiance," Alexander stated. "The two of them will get married in two years, so I hope that everyone will bless their union."

As if waiting for that cue, a beautiful, blue-haired young lady wearing a white dress, started to descend from one of the upper staircases.

Everyone in the hall, especially the teenage boys, couldn't help but gaze at Iris with infatuated looks.

Even Lux, who had already made love with his fiance many times in the past, couldn't stop his heart from skipping a bit due to how beautiful she was right now.

Her hair was styled like that of a princess, and the silver tiara on her head made her look like the real deal.

The blue-haired beauty's graceful movements carried an air of confidence that seemed to be engraved in her very bones.

Although everyone already knew that she was Lux's fiance, that didn't stop them from envying the Half-Elf, who managed to win the heart of a Saint's daughter.

They were aware that, although they were step-siblings, they weren't truly blood-related, so there was no problem with their union.

In everyone's eyes, they were like a match made in heaven, and the moment the two of them stood side by side, holding each other's hands, this image only became more profound.

Cai, who entered the Event Hall in her Boar form, wasn't noticed by anyone, not even by Xander, who was one of her protectors.

She had helped Iris fix her hair and clothes and followed behind her using the secret pathways of the Academy in order to arrive at the Main Hall undetected.

"They look good together, right Fei Fei?"

"Wae~"

Cai smiled as she looked at the two people that she would share the rest of her life with in the future.

Despite knowing that the path that she was going to take was filled with thorns, she had already made her decision to take that step and was doing her best to get closer to the Half-Elf, who was also doing his best to make her feel that she was an important person in his life.

Originally, Alexander was supposed to announce her engagement with Lux as well, but due to her delicate circumstances, they decided to keep it a secret for now.

"Are you sure about this Cai?"

Out of nowhere, Maximilian appeared beside his granddaughter, which almost made Cai shout out in fright.

Fortunately, she didn't do that, or it would have ruined the current mood inside the venue.

"Yes, Grandpa," Cai replied after regaining her composure. "I don't want to expose myself to others right now."

Maximilian sighed in his heart, but he also understood that this was for the best.

He was just a little sad that his beautiful granddaughter wasn't up there on the staircase beside Lux and Iris.

He wanted Cai to live a normal and peaceful life, but her Body Physique would cause wars to break out if people became aware of it.

As if sensing his presence and gaze, Lux glanced in the direction of the Saint of the Rowan Tribe and held his gaze.

The two stared at each other for nearly half a minute. No words were said between them, and yet, both men understood each other.

The red-headed teenager nodded his head as if to assure the Saint that he understood what the former wanted from him.

Maximilian nodded back because Lux's gesture decreased the worries inside his heart.

Although they had already talked about it in great detail back in the Rowan Tribe, the Saint was still feeling a little anxious because of the vision that his granddaughter, Rose, saw a week ago.

His only hope was that Lux, who was also there at the scene, would ensure Cai's safety and prevent her from falling into the hands of the beings that wished to use her for their own selfish desires.
