Wizard World Irregular-Chapter 949: You Mean Baking In Two Ovens Instead Of One, Right?

Somewhere in Southshire...

The sound of trees being split apart reverberated in the forest as two blurry figures clashed against each other.

Lyall had a fearless smile on her face as she looked at her father, who had agreed to have a sparring match with her.

Although Seth had been holding back a bit, he was quite surprised to see that his daughter had grown stronger than before.

"Perhaps after a year, you'll surpass your brother, Conall," Seth commented as he stood several meters away from his daughter.

"Really?!" Lyall asked in surprise. "That's great!"

Seth also nodded his head in agreement, knowing that Lyall had always wanted to be as strong as him.

However, just as the two were about to continue their spar, Conall arrived with a solemn expression on his face.

"Father, Mother Leah asked me to call you," Conall said. "It's very important."

Seth frowned because a glance was enough to tell him that Conall seemed to have received quite a shock.

"What happened?" Seth inquired.

"A letter from Lily arrived nearly half an hour ago," Conall answered. "The contents of the letter are very important."

Seth arched an eyebrow. "Have you read it?"

"Yes."

"Then, what does it say?"

Conall shook his head. "It will be best if you read the letter yourself, Father."

Seth scoffed, but he decided that it would be best that he head home for the time being. The Beast King took a step forward, and he vanished from where he stood, turning into a blur as he ran towards their residence.

"What happened?" Lyall grabbed her brother's arm. "Did something happen to Lily?"

Conall hesitated for a bit before nodding his head. "Yes. Something happened to Lily."

Lyall's face immediately distorted into anger, thinking that something bad had happened to her sister.

Without another word, she followed behind her father, running as fast as she could so that she could return home before him.

Lyall wanted to know what happened to her sister very much.

'Ethan, if something happened to Lily, I'll beat the crap out of you!' Lyall vowed as her speed drastically increased, catching up to her father in the span of a few seconds.

Conall sighed before he, too, ran back home.

When Seth and Lyall arrived at their home, they found that aside from Leah, Seth's other wives had solemn expressions on their faces.

At the center of the table was an opened letter, and judging from their expressions, the Beast King was certain that all of them had read Lily's letter.

Lyall attempted to snatch the letter on the table, only to grab empty air.

Seth was several times faster than her, so it didn't take much effort on his part to get the letter before his daughter could even touch it.

Everyone watched with bated breath as Seth read the letter in silence.

Suddenly, a frown appeared on his face, which lasted only for a few seconds before his expression regained its calm.

As the Beast King, he had learned to rein in his emotions, especially if it was about something important.

Seth read the letter thrice in order to make sure that he didn't miss any hidden meaning in his daughter's handwriting.

A few minutes later, a long and deep sigh escaped his lips.

"What happened?!" Lyall asked. "Are we going to start killing those who bullied my sister? Count me in!"

Seth sighed a second time before handing Lyall the letter, which made the young lady grow curious.

Just like her father, a frown appeared on her face as she read the letter. However, this frown also disappeared after a few seconds, replaced by an excited look.

Without even skipping a bit, Lyall returned the letter back on the table before heading toward the door in haste.

But before she could even leave the house, a hand grasped her shoulder in a vice grip, preventing her from moving.

"And where do you think you're going?" Seth asked.

"Where else?" Lyall replied in confusion. "I'm going to Brynhildr Academy to see Lily. Also, while I'm at it, I'll ask Ethan to *beep* me too. That way, I can have a baby as well. It's a win- win for everyone!"

"Like hell you will!" Seth growled in anger. "You're not going to leave this house! Conall, you will travel with Leah to Brynhildr Academy so that the three of you can have a proper talk. Feel free to buy a house in Limeburgh Town, and stay there for the time being.

"When Leah deems that it will be best for Lily to return here, I will also set off to Brynhildr Academy and personally escort all of you back. Ethan is not around at the moment because he is dealing with important matters.

"Given the situation, you must keep your eyes and ears open for any problem that might harm your sister, understood?"

Conall nodded. "Yes, Father. I'll make sure to protect Mother Leah and Lily."

"Hey! What about me?!" Lyall complained. "I'm going as well!"

"No, you won't," Seth replied.

"Yes, I will!" Lyall insisted. "I will! I will! I will! I will! I will! I will!"

The corner of Seth's right eye twitched as the thought of locking up Lyall inside their house passed through his mind.

However, before he could execute this thought, he felt a soft and delicate hand tap his

shoulder.

"Let Lyall go with them," a beautiful woman with long red hair and red eyes said firmly.

She was none other than Lyall's and Conall's mother, Louise.

"You know that Lyall will not sit still when she's there," Seth replied with a frown.

"I did some divination earlier about this trip to Brynhildr Academy," Louise smiled faintly. "According to what I saw, Lyall needs to go because she will have a fateful encounter there."

"""A fateful encounter?!"""

The entirety of Seth's family exclaimed after hearing Louise's statement.

"Oh my god! Who is that pitiful person?!"

"Is that person even human? How can meeting Lyall be equivalent to a fateful encounter?"

"Hiss... Lyall has been talking about that young man named Ethan. Is this perhaps a sign that the two sisters will be cooked in the same pot?"

"You mean baking in two ovens instead of one, right?"

Seth couldn't help but pinch the bridge of his nose after hearing his wives' commentary.

In the end, he reluctantly agreed to let Lyall accompany Conall and Leah to Brynhildr

Academy.

But despite the earlier shock and surprise, Seth found this news to his liking.

He had already recognized Ethan as his son-in-law, and had already acknowledged the young

man's strength.

Seth believed that Lily would definitely give birth to strong children, which would further strengthen their Beast King bloodline.

If only he wasn't busy handling the affairs of the war preparations, he would have gone there

himself.

He only managed to catch a small breather by sparring with his daughter, Lyall, after several

days of hard work.

Lily had informed him beforehand that Ethan planned to stop the Fomorians before they could even make landfall in the Shire Continent.

Seth thought that his son-in-law was truly capable and was even fond of the latter's

decisiveness.

'I don't know if this is really a good or bad thing,' Seth pondered as he looked outside the window. 'Dark times are coming, and I'm afraid that my grandchild might suffer because they were born during these troubled times.'

The Beast King might be a battle junkie, but he was someone who preferred peace over war.

He hoped beyond hope that his son-in-law would prevail in his endeavors, so his unborn child would be delivered safely in a world that wasn't on the verge of war.
