Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gatechapter 596: oh my god! they’re so cheesy!

Although a portion of the Orc Fortress was destroyed during the clash, they could easily be fixed by the Earth Mages that would arrive soon.

"Mogazar, you keep watch over our enemies for now," Lady Avyanna ordered. "Oreg, replace him after four hours. Tanabur will be the third to keep watch, then Barca. As for you, Baronar, erect a defensive barrier around the Fortress."

Barca and the Four Orc Warlords nodded their heads and obeyed their Orc Chieftain's orders.

As Lady Avyanna walked away, the frown on her face deepened. The attack on the Stronghold wasn't part of her calculations, which meant that their enemies were either very confident in their strength or just very stupid.

'I'd better prepare for the worst,' Lady Avyanna thought. 'I'm afraid that our defenses will not hold for long.'

While the Orc Chieftain was busy thinking of the next strategy they would use for the upcoming battle with the Haca Dynasty's main army, a certain Half-Elf was looking at the dead bodies within the Fortress with a regretful look on his face.

'Maybe I can ask Baronar for help,' Lux thought as he looked at the Human soldiers who had died under Barca's and the Orc Warlord's hateful counterattack. 'Leaving these dead bodies here is just so wasteful!'

In the Orcs' eyes, the value of Human corpses was limited to their armor and weapons that could be recycled to create new armor and weapons.

For the Half-Elf, the dead bodies were precious resources that he could use to activate his Necromancer Skills

This was the perfect example of the saying, one man's trash is another man's treasure.

For Lux, gathering all the dead bodies on the battlefield was simply an opportunity that was too good to be true.

After making up his mind, Lux hurriedly looked for Baronar in order to ask permission to collect the dead soldiers on the battlefield.

Although he didn't plan to join the battle anytime soon, that didn't mean that he couldn't profit from the outcome of the clash between the Haca Dynasty, and the Blackrock Clan.

Rowan Tribe's Camp…

"Fei Fei, look over there. Isn't that strange?"

"Wei~"

"Right? I've been with my little sister all my life, but this is the first time I've seen her like this!"

"Wei~"

Cai and Fei Fei were hiding in the shrubs as they looked at the unbelievable scene in the distance.

Cai's little sister, Rose, was busy reading a book with a smile on her face.

If the young beauty was just reading a book, then Cai wouldn't have reacted in this manner.

But her notorious little sister, who had been bullying her ever since she returned to the Rowan Tribe, was currently reading a book while leaning her body against a young man!

At that exact moment, the Second Priestess of the Rowan Tribe flipped the page of her book and sighed.

"You should eat more," Rose said as she adjusted her sitting position to make herself more comfortable. "You're almost all skin and bones."

The corner of Keane's lips rose as his arms wrapped around the young beauty's waist. He leaned down to whisper, "Alright. Let's eat together, okay? You're so light, a strong gust of wind could blow you away."

"That won't happen," Rose replied with a sweet smile as she flipped to the next page. "I know you won't let me get blown away."

"You're right." Keane's hold around her tightened. "Over my dead body.

Currently, the skinny swordsman was sitting on a tree stump, while Rose sat on his lap, with her head resting on his shoulder.

Cai wouldn't go as far as to call them a match made in heaven, but seeing the two together created a very peaceful and romantic scene that made Cai weep helplessly.

'Oh my God! They're so cheesy!' Cai squealed internally as she looked at the two important people in her life. 'My little sister has grown a lot. She now found a close friend she can talk to, while Little Swordy finally learned how to smile. I'm so proud of them!'

The more Cai looked at the two, the more she realized that Keane and Rose complimented each other.

Truth be told, Rose wasn't really a violent lady. She was strong-willed and did what she thought was right. Most of the time, she just wanted to read a good book in silence, letting the time fly past her.

Keane, on the other hand, was someone who was in pursuit of inner peace. He would often meditate alone and be one with his surroundings in the hope that he would attain enlightenment in order to be a step closer to the peace he was looking for.

Cai loved Rose very much, so she wanted to find the latter a good man.

This was why she was actively recruiting members for the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. Her goal was to find a suitable groom for her sister, who would love and take care of her for the rest of her life.

'Oh, what should I do? Should I tell Grandpa?' Cai thought before shaking her head. 'No. This is a very sensitive topic. Gramps might kick Little Swordy out of the Rowan Tribe if he finds out. Um, I'll just keep quiet for now and watch how things play out. Wait, maybe I should ask a friend in the Guild Chat. I wonder how they are doing right now?'

After opening her Guild Chat, Cai immediately sent a message to Grandma Annie, asking her for advice.

The kind Grandma of Leaf Village listened to Cai's explanation and offered some suggestions to her.

"For now, simply observe them from afar" Grandma Annie replied after Cai finished her tale. "Sometimes, it is best to not intervene and let nature take its course."

"Okay," Cai agreed with Grandma Annie's advice. "How are you guys doing in the Wanid Kingdom? Last time, Laura and Livia told me that you got attacked by Insect Swarms. Are you guys really alright?"

"We're fine, Cai. Lux managed to create a miracle and saved us all. However, right now, we're in a bit of a pinch."

"What happened?"

Grandma Annie explained their current situation like a gossipy Auntie to Cai, who liked to listen to gossip.

"As expected of Lux," Cai commented after Grandma Annie finished her story. "Well, I just hope that you guys will be able to accomplish your mission in the Wanid Kingdom. We are preparing a birthday party for when Lux returns, so he better come home in one piece, or else, Iris will kill him even if he is already dead."

Truth be told, Cai had just celebrated her birthday a few days ago.

Rose was sixteen, and Cai was eighteen. The Boar celebrated her birthday surrounded by family and friends.

Iris even came to the Rowan Tribe in order to participate in the festivities. Cai had strictly forbidden everyone, especially the members of Lux's Guild, to tell the Half-Elf about her birthday.

The High Priestess of the Rowan Tribe understood that Lux had many things to do, and he simply didn't have time to celebrate her birthday with her. However, Cai was fine with that.

For some reason, she didn't want to tell the Half-Elf that she had gotten a year older. Lux's birthday was coming up, and he would become seventeen soon.

She planned to prepare a nice present for the red-headed teenager, which would make the other party feel touched. In order to do that, she collaborated with Iris and asked for the things that Lux liked.

After getting her answer, the Boar rummaged through her Grandpa's treasury to look for a gift for her Guild Master. Fortunately, her effort bore fruit and she got what she wanted.

All she needed to do was wait for Lux to return so that she could celebrate his birthday alongside Iris, who was waiting patiently for her beloved to return to her arms.
