Chapter 700 Surprise Welcome [Part 2]
“Let’s take this somewhere else,” Dainsleif spoke directly into Seff’s head using telepathy. "We might wreck your place if we're not careful."
The Ancient Wendigo rose up towards the sky, making a “come over here” gesture with his finger, which made Seff sneer.
Stepping onto air, the Beast King shot towards the sky like a cannonball in order to beat some sense to the monster, who thought that it could do whatever he wished.
Once Seff was within his range, Dainsleif spread his arms wide and chanted.
“Gravity Domain.”
As soon as these words were spoken, the Ancient Wendigo and the Beast King disappeared from everyone’s sights.
Ethan, who was left to deal with Nicole and Lyall, smiled faintly because he noticed that the teamwork of the two was nearly flawless.
This could only be achieved if two people knew each other’s fighting style, and habits, allowing them to synchronize their attacks to compliment each other.
Unfortunately, Ethan was no longer the same Ethan that they knew several months ago.
He was not only stronger, but had gained new abilities, which allowed him to stand his ground against the two powerful ladies, whose attacks were increasing in speed and ferocity.
While this was happening, Catherine took the opportunity to approach Lily and her mother, Leah.
“Good day to the two of you,” Catherine said. “I am Ethan’s mother, Catherine. My son has said many things about you, Lily, and I’m very happy to have finally met you.”
Lily, who had already been told by Ethan that he would be coming with his mother and sister, smiled at the beautiful lady, whom she was seeing for the first time.
“I’m also very happy to meet you, mother,” Lily replied. “I’m glad that you were able to come here to our Ancestral Lands.”
“Yes, it is an honor to be here.” Catherine nodded. “By the way, this is my daughter, Joanne. She has many things to say to you.”
Lily shifted her gaze to the beautiful girl, who resembled her mother very much.
“It’s an honor to meet you, Lily.” Joanne made a curtsy like a proper noble lady. “My name is Joanne Valentin, and I have been given the opportunity to become best friends with Ramona, who is your disciple back in the Magdar Kingdom.”
Ethan’s sister almost teared up when she remembered her best friend, who had hugged her tightly the night before their departure.
“She also became the Saintess of the Order of the Tidebringer, and even made a giant statue of me and her together,” Joanne added, which made Lily chuckle because she thought that Joanne was just joking with her.
“Did she now?” Lily asked back with a smile. “Is she so in love with Ethan that she founded a religion around him?”
“Yes,” Joanne replied. “She did. Ramona had united the Lands of Alastor through her Order of the Tidebringer, and only stepped down after finding a successor to become the next Saintess. After that, she went on a journey... and was never heard from again.”
Finally realizing that Joanne wasn’t joking, Lily’s expression became solemn, and asked her for more information about the missing Princess, who was her one and only Disciple in the world.
While all of this was happening, a shock wave erupted around Ethan as Nicole and Lyall unleashed their combination attack that forced the young man to get a little serious in fighting them.
Since Nicole wasn’t using magic, and Lyall still hadn’t done a full transformation, Ethan was simply using his Lightbringer and Wand to block, deflect, and parry their attacks.
This display of expertise made the Beastkins, who were watching the battle from afar, nod their heads in satisfaction.
When their King told them that her daughter’s future mate was coming, those who were pursuing Lily decided to test whether or not he was deserving of her.
They were the Beastkins that attacked Ethan earlier, and were sent flying by the young man, who wasn’t even fighting them seriously.
After a few more exchanges, Ethan distanced himself from the two and lowered his trident and wand, taking a normal stance.
“I think that’s enough sparring, don’t you think so?” Ethan asked the two beautiful ladies, who were looking at him with faint smiles on their faces.
“That was just a warm up,” Nicole replied. “The real thing starts now, okay?”
“Let’s see if you can still be composed after we fight seriously,” Lyall smirked as her hands, and feet underwent a partial transformation.
Ethan sighed as he looked at the two battle junkies who wouldn’t be satisfied unless they landed a solid hit on his body.
Seeing how determined they were, Ethan was very tempted to give the two of them a good spanking.
However, he knew that he couldn’t do that, especially since many people were watching their battle.
At most, he would just have to show them that no matter what they did, they wouldn’t be able to defeat him, which would make them give up after understanding the difference in their fighting prowess.
