Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 2086

“And these two are?”

“They're the ones we've been looking for, David Jones and Brantley Fleming are the founding heroes of the Northern Conquest Army,” introduced Zeke.

Immediately after hearing the man, Ares and the others bowed to the two.

“I'm Ares of the North Army. It's an honor to meet you, sir!”

“Killer Wolf of the North Army. It's an honor, sir!”

“Nameless of the North Army. It's an honor, sir!”

David and Brantley both looked proud as they gazed at the group of men before them. “We're glad to see that the future of our nation is in good hands. With you men standing guard in the North, Eurasia will continue to thrive!”

Afterward, since the two looked a little weak, Zeke decided to treat them with Ammo Needle.

As expected, they felt much better after the acupuncture session.

“Come. Let's talk while we move on,” suggested Zeke before leading the group to Muraco.

Zeke was ready to take his leave since the Netherworld branch had been pulled down, but before leaving, he decided to pass Progenitor to Erwen because he thought a clan member should keep it instead.

“What do you plan to do next, Mr. Jones?” inquired Zeke on the way.

“I'll fight for the North as long as I still breathe, and I hope you'll allow me to do so, Young Master.”

“You're truly a role model for me and others of my generation. But don't you have a daughter to go back to?”

David's eyes instantly widened in excitement when Zeke mentioned his family. “You've seen Emma, Young Master? How is she these days? I... I've failed her. I left her without saying goodbye when she was still just a little girl. She'll never forgive me for that.”

Even though David was a tough-looking man, he shed tears nonetheless at the mention of his daughter.

“Don't be too hard on yourself. Not only has Emma forgiven you, but she's also been searching for you all these years. It was with her help that I managed to find you. I wouldn't have been able to save you if it weren't for her,” informed Zeke.

Upon hearing that, David quickly dried his tears. “Thank you, Young Master. I would like to see Emma if you don't mind.”

“Of course. You've done more than enough for the North. We're forever in your debt, so why not consider spending the rest of your life with Emma? It would be nice to make up for all the lost time, no?”



“I can't do that, Mr. Williams! I belong to the North. Asking me to leave would be worse than death for me.”

Zeke could understand how David felt, for he would feel the same way if he were forced to leave the North.

Then, Zeke looked at Brantley and was hesitant to speak up. I was part of the reason why his son, Thomas, is dead, so should I tell him? Hearing about it would probably destroy him.

“Is there something you want to tell me, Young Master?” inquired Brantley when he saw Zeke frowning at him.

“Yes. But it's going to be a tough pill to swallow, so I want you to get ready first.”

“I'm ready, Mr. Williams. After everything I've been through, I'm sure I can take it.”

“It's about your son, Thomas.” Zeke then waited until Brantley responded with a quiet nod before continuing. “He's... He's dead. And it's because I couldn't protect him.”
