Chapter 701: Surprise Welcome [Part 3]

Within Dainsleif's Gravity Domain the sound of thunderous blows reverberated in the surroundings.

The Beast King and the Ancient Wendigo were trading blows like there was no tomorrow, and the two were sneering as if telling each other "is that the best that you've got?"

After exchanging blows for the umpteenth time, the two distanced themselves from each other, and engaged in casual conversation.

"You summoned a Domain, and yet, you're not using it to boost your abilities," Seff stated. "Are you giving me a handicap?"

"A handicap?" Dainsleif chuckled. "Of course not. I just summoned the Domain because I don't want others seeing what I am capable of doing. Besides, it is easier to maintain it if I don't use its abilities."

"Hoh? Are you my son-in-law's Trump Card or something like that?"

"Correction. I am just ONE of your son-in-law's Trump Cards."

Seff smirked. "Good. That will keep him alive long enough for Lily to give birth to his child."

Dainsleif chuckled because Seff had no idea what kind of existence his Master was. However, since it was not his place to say, he decided to just test his strength against one of the most powerful existences in Southshire.

But, just as he was about to attack the Beast King, Seff raised his hand stopping the Wendigo from advancing forward.

"Hey, Wendigo, I have a question," Seff stated. "You absorbed those Fomorians, right?"

"That's right," Dainsleif replied. "They were quite tasty by the way."

"Then, you are now very powerful, right?"

"Indeed. But, I have no one to test this power on. How about you do the honors for me, hmm?"

Seff laughed before transforming into his Beast King form. He found the Ancient Wendigo's words quite amusing.

A Golden Werewolf that was three-meters tall roared, making the Domain tremble as his power exploded outwards.

Dainsleif wasn't fazed by Seff's display of power.

Instead, it only made the glow of its malevolent eyes brighter as it also raised its power to the next level.

Black shadowy wisps swirled around the Ancient Wendigo, directly colliding with the Beast King's golden radiance.

It was like a battle between light and darkness.

Seff only transformed because no one would be able to see him fight to the fullest while they were inside Dainsleif's Domain.

After staring at each other for nearly half a minute, both combatants disappeared from where they stood and clashed repeatedly, creating shock waves whenever their blows landed against each other.

"Is that all you got, Wendigo? I can do this all day!"

"Are you really the Beast King? Why do your blows feel like the scratch of a kitten?"

Not only did the two trade blows, they also traded words, taunting each other as they increased their speed and the force of their attacks.

Right now, the two were fighting using around fifty-percent of their total combat power, which would have been enough to destroy a good portion of Northlake Forest.

If anyone could see their battle now, the Beastkins would realize that the retainer of the Beast King's son-in-law was a very powerful and dangerous creature. Sёarᴄh the NôvelFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

After ten minutes of non-stop fighting, Seff distanced himself from the Ancient Wendigo and looked at his fists, which were oozing with white smoke.

"Now, this is interesting," Seff said with a smile. "When did a monster like you gain the power of Faith?"

"This power belongs to my Master," Dainsleif replied. "Since I am his direct retainer, I am also benefiting from his power."

"Ethan is blessed by the power of Faith?"

"Yes. Aren't you and your family lucky? Your in-law is being worshiped as a Deity."

"As expected of my daughter, she has good eyes for men, just like her mother."

"Well, you're not wrong about that."

After that short break, the two once again clashed.

This time, they had gotten more serious, unleashing a strength that would have one-sidedly beaten the crap out of the Fomorians, who had arrived in the Shire Continent in search for the Stone of Destiny.

Small cracks were starting to appear in the sky and in the ground of the Gravity Domain, as Seff and Dainsleif continued to trade blows with each other.

Even in the heat of battle, both of them understood that they shouldn't elevate their powers past eighty percent, or they would enter the point of no return.

Their blows were already strong enough to shatter the bones of their opponents if they managed to land a solid hit on their bodies.

Raising that strength further would lead to fatal injuries, which was something that the two wished to avoid.

As the cracks in the sky continued to expand, the two fought to their heart's content until they could no longer do it.

Perhaps, reaching its limit, the sky of the Domain shattered, forcing the two combatants to distance themselves from each other.

"You're not bad, Wendigo."

"I now understand why you are the Beast King."

The two once again sneered at each other before Seff undid his transformation.

The swirling black mist around Dainsleif also disappeared, reverting him to his usual state.

The Ancient Wendigo then waved his hand, and the Domain became completely undone, making both of them appear in the real world once again.

But, just as they were about to look at the ground to see the outcome of Ethan's, Nicole's, and Lily's battle, a loud explosion reached their ears.

Dozens of trees were uprooted from the ground, and rose towards the sky as Lyall transformed fully, unleashing a deadly blow at point-blank-range.

To everyone's surprise, Ethan didn't block her attack with his Silver Trident, or erected a barrier using his magic.

His fist met Lyall's fist, which created a powerful destructive force, blowing away the trees around them, and creating a crater on the ground.

Lyall paused momentarily because she didn't expect that the young man would use his bare fists to fight her, making her body subconsciously shudder.

'Aigo~ what have you done, Ethan my boy?' Sebastian facepalmed from inside the teenage boy's Sea of Consciousness. "Are you trying to make that crazy lady fall for you even more?"

Ethan's Other Half was also shaking his head because he didn't expect that Ethan would want to test his physical strength against Lyall, who had now taken on her full transformation.

Seff, Lyall's brothers and sisters, as well as the Beastkins, couldn't help but do a double take because a mere human used brute force to receive the blow of one of the strongest Beastkins within the Beast King's family.

But, what surprised them more was that Ethan didn't break his hand or arm in the process.

Ethan didn't waste the opportunity, while Lyall was still in a daze.

He didn't hesitate to unleash two quick jabs, on the Werewolf's jaw to rattle her brain, and make her collapse to the ground, returning to her human form.

"Do you still want to fight?" Ethan asked as she turned around to look at Nicole, who had already lowered her weapon.

"Yes," Nicole replied. "You are going to be my bed warmer tonight."

The young man almost choked after hearing his best friend's words, which she purposely said to create a misunderstanding in front of everyone.

Lily shook her head helplessly as she walked towards Ethan.

The young man didn't hesitate to walk towards his lover as well, and give the young lady a hug.

After being hugged for half a minute, Lily stood on tiptoe to give Ethan a kiss on the cheek, which the latter returned in kind.

Soon, cheers, whistles, and applause spread in the surroundings, as the surprise welcome of the Beastkins finally came to an end.
