Lacey was more heartbroken than they were.
She had fantasized this scene more than once.
Zeke would be jumping for joy to see how beautiful and healthy his baby girl was, and how much she resembled
him.
However, all these could only take place in her dreams.
Hannah forced a smile. “Lacey, do come up with a name for your child.”
Lacey thought for a while and said, “Let’s name her Missy Williams.”
This was a very meaningful name.
The child was to take on Zeke’s last name, Williams.
Her first name Missy represented how she missed Zeke!
Till now, Lacey was still unable to forget about Zeke.
After two years.
At the Southeast borders.
There were corpses piled up everywhere while blood flowed into murky red rivers.
The billowing smoke was engulfed in a strong smell of corpses which dissipated into the surroundings.
Amidst the corpses, two figures stood strong and tall as they headed towards the enemy’s direction.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe setting sun spilled over on the two of them, making them look as if they were soaked in blood.
One of them held onto a flag while the other carried a coffin on his shoulders.
Even though they were staggering due to serious injuries, they gritted their teeth and persevered.
They only managed to heave a sigh of relief when the rescue team finally arrived to form the defense line. They lay
flat on the ground, panting like cattle.
The one with the flag was Ares, the God of War.
The nation would never fall as long as the flag continued to stand proud.
The one carrying the coffin was the Great Marshal, Zeke Williams.
His aim was to create fear in the enemies.
Despite the risk of death, he would rather be buried in this coffin than to lose guard over this line of defense.
Naturally, their enemy was the bloodthirsty Pike, who led the Bloodsworth Syndicate.
They had been in a standoff with them for three years.
Throughout this period, Bloodsworth had activated countless frenzied attacks, only to be stopped in their tracks by
Zeke and Ares.
Two days ago, the killing god Pike gathered all of his men at the Bloodsworth Syndicate for one more attack.
Zeke led his team and was engaged in a bloody war with them for a whole day and night.
While the enemy was about to be chased from the borders, he did not expect Pike to invite ten gods of war to
support him.
Now, the tables had turned and Zeke’s side was no longer the active party. They were now the passive side.
Despite that, Zeke’s strong combat power still enabled him to slash and kill all ten gods of war.
Seeing that he had already lost his advantage, Pike immediately ran away in an attempt to save his life.
Of course, Zeke had a price to pay as well.
Right now, he felt that there was only a difference of one step between life and death.
Ares seemed to be as strong, if not stronger, than Zeke.
Other gods of war would have been completely fatigued after two days and two nights worth of battles.
However, not only had Ares persevered, but he had also slashed and killed the gods of war together with numerous
other masters!
Right now, all he had left was a strong belief that sustained his will to live.
Pfft, pfft!
Ares spat out two mouthfuls of bright red blood before saying, “My son-in-law...”
“Get lost!”
Zeke reprimanded him impatiently. “There is no family on the battlefield.”

Ares laughed out loud, “You ba****d! Even if we were in hell, let alone at the battlefield, I am still your father-in-law.
I... I won
’t be around for much longer...
I have none but one request. Bury me at the border and make sure my grave faces the enemy troops. I want to
defend our borders even as a ghost!
”
Zeke took a deep breath, “Don’t worry, you won’t die. You still need to babysit my kids! The Bloodsworth Syndicate
has been completely annihilated, leaving only Pike behind. They are as good as dead now. It’s all safe here now.
Let’s go home.”
Home...
Tears flowed freely down Ares’ face.
While he defended the country, he had neglected his home.
It is time to go back and take a look.
Zeke said, “Don’t go home yet. Looking at you now, you might just die on the way back. I’ll arrange for your
medical treatment at the Cygnus Room first.”
Zeke only boarded the plane home after he made all the arrangements for Ares.
I’ve been away for three years.
How are you, Lacey?
How are you, my parents?
Will they forgive me for leaving without saying goodbye?
