Strongest Mage with the Lust system

Chapter 546  Oliver [2]

After he went in, the guards closed the gate and exchanged glances between them.

"That's a genius for you. He has comprehended the legendary [Ice God technique] at such a young age." One of them said.

"You are right. But if we had access to it, maybe we could also have comprehended it." The other one said, feeling envious of Oliver's privilege.

The first guard didn't say anything because she felt the same.

…

Oliver walked over to the meeting hall, where another two guards stopped him. So, he once again showed the [Ice God's Halo] to them before they opened the door.

'Let's go.' He took a deep breath, nodded to the guards, and stepped inside.

As soon as he did, he became the focus of many sharp gazes and felt a heavy pressure envelop him.

"What are you doing, Oliver?" Julius, his father, asked with a frown on his face.

Oliver took a deep breath and raised his head. In front of him was a long table with over two hundred people sitting on the both sides. At the end of the table sat two people—a beautiful middle-aged woman and man with a long white beard. They were the supreme Elders of the Dawn faction—peak monarch realm existences. Right now, both were looking at him with an obvious displeased look in their eyes, just like his father, who sat near them.

"Greeting, supreme Elders and the rest of the Elders." Oliver bowed to them and greeted before cupping his fists, "I apologize for coming here like but…"

While speaking, he glanced at his father and the supreme Elders and continued, "…I couldn't wait to share something with everyone here, which I believe you will be pleased to hear."

"What are you playing at, boy? Don't waste our time and get the hell out of here before I punish you." A man, standing directly opposite to Julius, scolded. Others were also displeased but didn't say anything upon casting a glance at Julius.

Julius' expression darkened when he heard the man scold his son like this, "What are you getting angry at, John? Didn't he say he had something important to tell us? Why don't we hear it first?"

John, Julius' distant cousin and also his competitor, smirked in response, "What?! Did I say something wrong? Even if he had something to tell us, he should've informed the guards and they would've told us. But no, he barged in despite knowing only Elders are allowed in the meeting hall?"

Julius grinned, "If he didn't have something important, do you think the guards would've allowed him entry?"

"Maybe he forced his—" John stopped speaking when he realized Oliver, despite being a five-star genius mage, couldn't have forced his way in since there were dozens of guards outside, including a few king ranked guards.

"Alright. Tell us what you wanted to, Oliver?" The female supreme Elder said, ending their argument.

Julius looked at his son, his eyes sparkling. He knew his son well enough to know he wouldn't be here without any good reason, and right now, he could only think of only one… His heart rate spiked when he thought of it and wait for Oliver to speak.

Oliver bowed slightly to the supreme Elder and then released his Ice God's energy.

Swoosh!

Crack!

Crack!

As soon as the pure white, ethereal halo appeared, two distinct sounds of breaking ice resounded in the hall—one made by John and the other one by Rose, Lily's master. Both had ugly expression on their faces. However, everyone ignored them, their eyes glued to Oliver's halo.

"Hahaha! Good! Good! Good! You did very good, my son." Julius's laughter broke the temporary silence and resounded in the hall.

Supreme elders' eyes twinkled while other Elder looked at Oliver in admiration and nodded. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Seeing everyone's reaction, especially the supreme Elders', Oliver grew ecstatic.

"You name is Oliver, right? Julius' son?" The long bearded supreme elder asked as he stroked his beard.

"Yes, supreme Elder." Oliver respectfully bowed.

"Comprehending the [Ice God Technique] is indeed a big achievement worth celebrating. But from what I can see, you must've succeeded less than an hour ago and you should be consolidating you comprehension and cultivation since you've broken through to peak five-star too. So, why are you here?" The supreme Elder asked.

Hearing his son had broken through to peak five-star from high-stage five-star, Julius' smile grew.

"This disciple knows it, supreme Elder. But I had something better in my mind." Oliver said, briefly casting a glance at his aunt, Rose.

When Rose noticed this, she clenched her fists.

"Oh?! And what is that?" The supreme Elder asked.

"Supreme Elder, two weeks ago, I was there when the news of demons' invasion was announced but I didn't depart for the battlefield and had instead gone into the secluded cultivation because I was very close to comprehending the first volume of [Ice God Technique]."

"I had planned to go to the battlefield once I succeeded in comprehending it, since fighting is the most effective way to consolidate a technique's comprehension." Oliver calmly said.

"Hm. You are right. Fighting is indeed the best way." The supreme Elder nodded appreciatively.

Seeing Elder's pleased expression, Oliver's excitement grew, and he continued, "So, apart from informing esteemed Supreme Elders and Elders, disciple wanted your permission to take a few other disciples with me so we could help each other out."

"Our permission? As far as I know, you don't need our permission for this. You could just ask the said disciples. I'm sure they won't refuse you." The female supreme Elder said as he cast a glance in Rose's direction, her eyes twinkling. She was Oliver's grandmother and Julius had informed her that her grandson liked Rose's disciple, but Rose didn't let him court her and he wanted her help to 'convince' Rose.

"You are right, supreme Elder. No disciple would refuse me. But I was afraid one of the disciples' master would prohibit me from taking her with me."

"That's why I wanted the supreme Elders to convince her master since going with me would be beneficial for her. I heard she is also trying to comprehend the [Ice God Technique], I could share my insights and help her." Oliver said, barely holding his excitement back. "Oh?! Why would her master wouldn't let her go? Who is her master? Let me talk to her." His grandmother said.

Rose's face darkened when she saw this act, but didn't say anything.

Oliver smiled and pointed at her, "It's Elder Rose, supreme Elder."

Earth spirit village...

As they waited for Max to return, Elves were talking amongst them, discussing what happened to Max and when he will return.

While Emily was sitting cross-legged a few meters away from Ellie, who sat hugging her knees to her chest, with dried tears marks on her cheeks, looking in the direction Max had disappeared with her mother.

Whoosh!

With Ella in the princess carry, Max arrived where Emily and others were.

Ella blushed when she saw everyone looking at them and quickly got down from his embrace.

Ellie rushed over and hugged her mother, sobbing. While Emily approached Max and asked, "Are you alright now?" "Yes. Thank you for… convincing Ella to help me." Max awkwardly said.

Emily glanced at Ella and Ellie and sighed. "I seem to have made a mistake. Instead of her mother, I should've sent one of the Elf women with you."

"Hm? Why?" Max asked, confused.

"Because… she is pregnant." "WHAT?!"
