Chapter 1641

"However, let's face the facts, shall we? Mr. Rain Nasso's right-hand man is out of the game, and of the two top-tier coaches, one's six feet under, and the other's licking his wounds. Out of the five hundred-plus cream-of-the-crop students from the martial arts school, barely a hundred are left standing!"And what about Graham, the head honcho of Drunham City's Kingsgate Martial Arts School, along with Torsten and those ten students? They all bit the dust in Drunham City. Have these losses slipped your minds?"Icarus's words hit home, and the roomful of previously defiant faces lost their fire.He took in their expressions, his own face a mask of smiles, but inside, he scoffed with contempt, thinking, 'A pack of witless fools!'When the moment felt ripe, Icarus turned his piercing gaze to Virginio, his eyes glinting with subtle ridicule. "Mr. Gabrick, I'm dying to know, with the troops you've got, do you really think you've got what it takes?" he asked with a sly grin.That singl

Icarus's statement plunged the room back into silence. Apart from a few delegates and Quenten, no one else had the chops that Rain did. If Rain had been taken down, what chance would they have?"And get this." Icarus continued, his earlier smirk then replaced by a grave seriousness, "I caught up with Mr. Nasso after he got back. He gave me the lowdown on Drunham City and made it crystal clear: we'd better not cross Liam without good reason. If we do, we're in for a world of hurt."After his encounter with Rain, seeing the man's battered state and hearing his harrowing tale, even Icarus, a man of the world, was taken aback. The once-muted crowd surged with curiosity, their heads snapping up to Icarus as they pressed, "Mr. Zwick, what did Mr. Nasso say? What on earth happened to him in Drunham City?" With a heavy sigh and a somber look, Icarus revealed, "Mr. Nasso confided in me that in Drunham City, he was bested by that young man with a single move, leaving his right hand utterly

The room erupted in protest at the suggestion. "Mr. Zwick, Mr. Gabrick's right on the money. Liam's made us a joke to every Martial Arts Association in the neighboring states. How can we even think about bringing him into our league?" one member argued. "Exactly! We can't recruit him. Liam took down Mr. Nasso. He's practically slapped us all in the face!""Spot on. He's insulted us all. Our martial arts league can't just roll over. We need to come down hard on this nobody son-in-law!""Mr. Zwick, I'm dead set against letting Liam join our martial arts league. Some son-in-law from the Stone family in Drunham City—what right does he have to step foot in our state league? And after he's openly disrespected us? No way we can let him in!""Definitely, definitely, definitely! There's no way we're letting him into our Martial Arts Association. He's turned us into a joke among the martial arts community. If we go out of our way to bring him in now, the state Martial Arts Association will

With that, Quenten's composed gaze swept over the assembly, taking in the varied expressions of the representatives and members, finally landing on Virginio, who was clearly struggling to hide his discontent.The room, previously abuzz with low chatter, fell silent under Quenten's watchful eyes. Everyone turned their attention to him.Quenten spoke calmly, "Folks, since Mr. Zwick has made his decision, we'll follow his lead. Putting aside his issues with Mr. Nasso for now, let's consider Liam. To be so skilled at such a young age, he's truly a prodigy among prodigies!"Let's not forget why we started this Martial Arts Association. I want us to look beyond the here and now. On that note, Mr. Zwick has set an excellent example."In the presence of such extraordinary talent, their priority should not be to hold it back but to welcome and bring it into the fold! Just think, when was the last time their state's martial arts association got a shot of new energy?Quenten also took this i

With that, Quenten, Cambria, and an assistant made their exit from the conference room.Icarus, with a respectful nod, joined the rest of the room in a silent, reverent farewell as they watched their leader depart.After Quenten had exited, the conference room buzzed with the allies of Virginio, their voices rising in heated debate."Mr. Gabrick, what's Mr. Zeller getting at? Are we really going to let our state's martial arts association be pushed around by some guy who just married into a family?""Exactly! Liam's made a fool out of us, turned us into a joke among the neighboring martial arts communities, and we're supposed to make nice with him?!""We're the martial arts authority in this state. Are we expected to bow to some nobody son-in-law from Drunham City?""Right! It seems Mr. Zeller's lost his edge, too old to stand up to even a lowly son-in-law.""Mr. Zwick, sure, our association needs new blood, but not from that son-in-law Liam!""Absolutely! He took down Mr. Nass

Icarus watched Virginio storm off, a mix of ice and scorn in his eyes. He had never had much respect for the guy.Virginio was all pride and swagger, thinking a little talent gave him the right to walk on air.However, what Virginio did not realize was that there were always bigger fish, plenty of them. He had just been a big shot in the tiny pond of state and had not yet met his match.Once Virginio and his entourage had cleared out, the other association members trickled out of the room, leaving Icarus with just two middle-aged men.One, a wiry guy with a questioning look, peered up at Icarus. "Is this Liam really all that? You think he's going to dazzle everyone at the annual Martial Arts Convention for Drunham City?"The other man, all stern and no-nonsense, chimed in, "Mr. Zwick, none of us have seen Liam in action. Can he live up to the hype?"Icarus chuckled, then his face took on a grave cast as he looked at the two men. "You've seen it for yourselves. The Martial Arts As

A shiver ran through the room as the middle-aged man spoke of the Yeager family, one of the Four Ancient Families. His eyes were a storm of emotions. Virginio's boldness, his brazen challenge to Icarus, was all because he had the Yeager family, with their deep roots and vast influence, standing behind him.Icarus was not the least bit startled or scared, and with a grin, he said, "Mr. Wadder, I'm well aware, and that's exactly why I'm going to..."Radwen Wadder gave a small nod, understanding, and offered, "Whatever happens, Icarus, if you're ever in a bind, just holler. I'll be there for you, come hell or high water."At the same time, outside the martial arts association's towering building.Quenten, his crew in tow and his granddaughter Cambria by his side, descended to the lobby and slid into his limousine. The engine had not even purred to life when Cambria's curiosity bubbled over.With a skeptical look, she quizzed, "Grandpa, is this Liam guy, the one married into the Sto

In the quaint courtyard of the Stone family...Liam and Celena had just stepped back into their cozy courtyard when Celena fixed Liam with an odd, piercing gaze.Liam felt a twinge of alarm but kept his cool, feigning ignorance. "Honey, what's with the intense stare?"As he spoke, Liam moved to plop down on the couch beside her, but Celena's sharp command froze him in his tracks. "Hold it right there!"Perched on the sofa like royalty, Celena surveyed him with a queenly air, arms folded and chin lifted.Liam tensed, then flashed a sheepish smile. "What's up, hon? Why the sudden inquisition?"He did not get to finish. Celena's eye roll cut him off as she demanded, "Liam, spill it. Are you keeping something from me?"Liam felt a jolt of nerves but quickly masked it with a goofy grin and a scratch of his head. "You're imagining things, love. I've got nothing to hide. Remember my seven years in the service? Training in martial arts with my mentor, teaching the troops—it made handlin

"Celena, I'm aware of the pain you endured seven years ago because of me and Jovie too. Our time together may have been brief, but it's been profound."You and Jovie mean the world to me. Celena, I can't thank you enough. After the tragedy with the Cole family seven years ago, I was left without a home. You gave me a new beginning."Celena, please know this—I, Liam, promise to guard you and Jovie with my life. As long as I draw breath, I'll shield you both from any harm."Liam's declaration was filled with unwavering conviction, his demeanor grave. Celena could see the truth in his eyes.Moved to tears, Celena's eyes glowed with gratitude as she nodded emphatically. "Yes, Liam... I trust you, and I'm deeply thankful for all you've done. You've been my rock in the toughest of times, and you've always treated me with such kindness.""Silly girl, you're my wife. Who else would I be good to, if not you?"Liam's smile was a gentle balm as he brushed away the tears from Celena's eyes.

Reginald, surrounded by the buzz of everyone's opinions, wore a look of deep concern. With a gentle tap of his cane on the floor, he commanded silence. Once the room fell quiet, Reginald turned to Yafe and inquired, "Yafe, what's your take on this?" At the mention of Liam, Yafe's expression darkened with a glint of malice in his eyes. "Dad, to be frank, Liam just doesn't fit with the Stone family anymore. It's bad enough he's been a constant source of trouble, but the guy has zero respect for authority. He's been insolent to his elders, even gone so far as to get physical with them. If we let him stay, we'll become the town's biggest joke!"If anyone was itching to kick Liam and Celena out of the Stone family, Yafe would be leading the charge with arms enthusiastically raised. Liam had crossed him one too many times, challenging him and even getting physical. Yafe was seething, fantasizing about giving Liam a taste of his own medicine.Sherah quickly joined in, playing to the fam
