A Demon Lord’S Obsession novel Chapter 157

Chapter 157: Bout

Elias and Dawson stood watching Rose and Leon sparring. Rose still trying her best to be a great swordsman, had the same fire in her eyes as her father. Both swords didn't show any mana but the sound of the swords bashing against each was loud enough for anyone to hear. The knights and guards cheered and watched in the same awe as the two men.

Elias yelled out with his hand coned on the side of his mouth to make his voice louder.

"You can do it, Rose.!"

Dawson turned his head to Elias asking, "I thought this was just training?"

Elias laughed while saying, "everyone else is cheering, I might as well do the same for my girl."

Dawson laughed much the same saying, "I bet it felt good to say that huh.?"

Elias put his hand on the back of his head rubbing his neck.

"Yea, I can't deny that. This is the first time I've gotten the chance to say something like that."

They both looked closely at the match, watching the two fighters start to show less intent. It seemed to be slowing down.

Elias looked at Dawson one last time and spoke.

"You have everything ready right.?"

Dawson continued to look at the two sparring, then looked at the ground.

"Yea, it's been a long time in the making, I don't want to mess it up."

Noticing the fight stopped grabbed two towels and started walking over to the two.

Just before leaving, he spoke.

"I hope she says yes."

Dawson laughed and with a light-hearted tone said, "me too."

Dawson watched as Elias walked over to the two people holding towels out for both. Leon seemed to snatch it from his hand while Rose gently grasped it. Elias seemed to say something to her and she seemed to reply but Dawson didn't hear it. He left shortly after Elias went to the two of them. Dawson had his own things to do.

””””

Elias looked at Rose's father, who was wiping the sweat from his face.

"So if you're not too tired Demon King shall we spar as well, might as well practice before I have to duel you for Rose's hand."

Rose watched and almost started laughing.

Leon spoke while wiping his face with the towel.

"You really know how to light a fire in me, now all I want to do is fight you."

"I'm glad then.."

Elias moved closer to Rose, they both playfully smiled at one another. He looked at her as she handed him the sword.

Though as she was slightly moving away he took her hand and kissed the back.

"Thank you, my lady."

Whether it was the display or the fighting, she had a reddened face as she walked off the court.

Elias turned and just as he did he raised his sword. Leon's sword was already against his, his face wasn't so pleased.

"Stop acting like a little shit and prove yourself to me."

"I'm just thanking your daughter."

"It seems once I allowed you to date, my daughter you got more spunk, maybe I should have fought you for that blessing as well."

Elias backed up twisting his body away, wielding his sword toward Leon's side. Leon blocked and jumped back. The two looked at each other, a veil mist of mana seemed to emerge from both. It was just a duel but now it could be seen as a battle. Everyone started cheering like before.

Sir Jesse kissed Mable's lips in the hall and then pulled away. Her glasses slightly fell over her nose, though he used his finger to push them back up.

He looked down on her, she was almost cornered by his large arms. He smiled at the blushing wife of his. Cheers and voices could be heard from outside the building and he pushed his face against her neck.
