Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate-Chapter 526 Should I Prepare A Grave That Is Six-Feet Deep For You?

Rows upon rows of delicious food were laid on top of the table, which made Lux subconsciously gulp.

"We are all gathered here today to celebrate Lux's, Cai's, Xander's, and Keane's amazing performance inside the Gate of Conquest," Maximilian said as he raised a wine goblet. "Cheers to the brave new heroes of the world!"

After everyone drank from their winecups, the feast was officially in full swing.

"Un!" Fei Fei happily nodded her head as she started to chew on one of the pork chops that were piled up on her plate.

Lux smiled as he looked at his beautiful fiancee, who acted very differently when surrounded by many people

Even the way she fed grapes to Eiko looked so graceful and elegant that Lux was very tempted to tease her. However, he didn't do that. f𝐫e𝘦𝘸e𝗯𝒏𝗼ѵe𝗹． c𝑜m

He wasn't aware that Maximilian was paying close attention to him as he tried the many delicious dishes that were exclusive to the Rowan Tribe.

Although he had eaten many delicious foods at Barbatos Academy, all of them were too classy for his taste. The cooking of the Rowan Tribe had a more "homey" feel to it, which he enjoyed very much.

It didn't take long before the only people remaining inside the dining area were Lux, Iris, Cai, Keane, Gerhart, and Maximilian.

The Chief of the Rowan Tribe calmly sipped tea as he looked at the teenagers who would usher a new era to the world. After emptying his cup, he placed it on top of his table and shifted his gaze to the Boar, whose belly was bulging because she had eaten too much.

Maximilian heaved a helpless sigh before shifting his gaze toward the red-haired Half-Elf, who had a satisfied look on his face. Since everyone seemed to be in a relaxed state, Maximilian decided to break the ice in order to ask some questions.

The Saint gave everyone a brief bow before getting into the crux of what he wanted to say.

Cai, who was feeling a little drowsy due to how full she was, immediately perked up after hearing her Grandpa's words.

"Silly girl, you're just making things difficult for everyone," Maximilian replied sternly. "Do you know how everyone in the tribe reacted when you quit Xander's Guild? They thought that someone in the guild offended you."

Maximilian arched an eyebrow as he looked at his granddaughter before shifting his gaze to the Half-Elf, who was slowly, but surely, trying to stealthily sneak out of the Dining Area.

"A-Actually, I think that I ate too much, Sir Maximilian," Lux replied with a cramped smile on his face. "N-Nature is calling me."

Lux subconsciously shuddered because, although Maximilian's words were said in a calm manner, he felt as if he already had one foot in the grave.

A faint smile appeared on Maximilian's face as he gazed at the Half-Elf, whose smile was twitching every now and then.

Lux was unable to meet Maximilian's stare, so he looked at Cai, who was looking back at him with a hopeful gaze.

Because of this, he decided to take a stand in order to repay the Boar who had sacrificed her life to save him.

She had known Cai's Grandpa for a few years, and she understood that Maximilian had no bad intentions. The blue-haired beauty was sure that Maximilian was merely curious why his shameless Granddaughter was dead-set on staying in Lux's Guild when he could provide her with anything that she wanted.

Lux's Guild had something that couldn't be found in Xander's Silver-Ranked Guild.

However, for the sake of his granddaughter, he had to know, and this was one of the reasons he invited the Half-Elf to the Rowan Tribe.

He then opened it and went to the page where his Guild Information could be found.

Soul Books were private things, and only people who were given permission by their owner could see what was written inside of them.

Half a minute later, after he had finished reading Lux's Soul Book, the Saint's body stiffened.

"Unbelievable…," Maximilian muttered as he raised his head to look at the Half-Elf, who was looking back at him with a steady gaze.

"Lux, we need to talk tonight in private," Maximilian stated. "I have some important things to tell you, so I hope that you will free up your schedule this evening."

Before leaving Barbatos Academy, Alexander had talked to Lux in private about the possibility of sharing the secret of his Guild with Maximilian.

Maximilian smiled as he looked at the Half-Elf who became more pleasing in his eyes.

'I guess I need to talk to Cai before I talk to Lux in private tonight,' Maximilian thought as he rubbed his chin. 'After all, her future happiness is currently at stake here.'
