Strongest Warlock - Wizard World Irregular

After being subjected to the horrifying power of the Cauldron of Twilight, which could render anyone with the bloodline of Firbolgs helpless, it was perfectly normal for Chloe to feel fear toward it.

Of course, she had blind faith that Ethan would never use the Cauldron to commit the heinous acts of extracting the Origin Magic Crystal of Witches. However, she would be lying if she said that she wasn't feeling anxious.

Concerned with her troubled and weakened state, Ethan made sure to hold her tightly so that her fears would subside.

Half an hour later, Chloe still hadn't regained enough strength to stand because her legs still felt like jelly.

"Stay here tonight," Ethan said. "It's been a while since I have seen you, and I miss you terribly."

The young lady's face reddened when he heard how affectionate Ethan was. Because of this, she nodded in understanding and accepted his proposal.

"The third wheel will go now," Chessy said. "Remember, Ethan. Don't casually bring that artifact out whenever you feel like it.

"You'll never know if someone has Firbolg Blood running inside their veins. If an incident similar to what happened earlier ever happens in public, there will be repercussions that you won't be able to deal with."

Ethan nodded. "I understand. Thank you, Chessy."

The Chesmire Cat gave Ethan a brief nod before disappearing completely.

Now that they were left alone, Ethan remembered that Chloe was still wearing her travel clothes.

Her hair was also a bit messy, and she looked exhausted from her journey. Although he wanted to talk to her a lot, he decided to care for her for the time being.

The rustling of clothes spread inside the room, as he helped his cousin undress. Chloe was surprised at first, but since this wasn't the first time that Ethan had seen her naked, she didn't resist and allowed him to remove the clothes from her body.

When she was completely naked, Ethan carried her towards the bathroom.

He planned to let her take a nice and relaxing shower before he let her sleep on the bed.

When they arrived at the bathroom, Ethan also took off his clothes and showered with Chloe.

The two of them hadn't had the chance to be together for a while, so they spent an hour inside the bathroom before Ethan carried her to the bed.

Using his magic, he dried her hair and body, and helped her put on a one-piece night dress.

Due to how tired she was, she fell asleep in less than a minute after her head rested on the pillow.

Ethan watched her sleeping face for nearly half a minute before hugging her tightly.

With his lover in his arms, Ethan thought about the information that Chloe had given him.

'The Cauldron of Dagda was taken by a Mermaid Princess,' Ethan thought. 'But, that doesn't automatically mean that the one that took it is Illumina.'

'You're right,' Sebastian commented. 'Just like there are many Human Princesses in the world, there are also over a dozen Mermaid Princesses under the sea.'

'While there is a chance that Illumina might be the one who took the Cauldron, we shouldn't rule out the possibility that it's not in her hands either,' Ethan's Other Half said. 'Since that is the case, we should prioritize contacting her as soon as possible.

'Ethan, it will be best if you use your Resonance, so you can have a proper talk with Illumina's Will. Maybe we can get some answers from her.'

'Understood,' Ethan replied. 'I'll do it first thing tomorrow morning.'

Right now, he just wanted to hug Chloe and feel her warmth, which he missed terribly.

Sebastian and Ethan's Other Half observed the young man, who seemed to always find himself in the midst of trouble whether he liked it or not.

They just hoped that sooner or later, he would be able to catch a break and enjoy his academy life without worrying about the dangers that lurked outside the academy's walls.

Meanwhile, in Jaeger Manor…

Chloe wasn't the only one sleeping soundly.

Lily was also sleeping peacefully, unaware that someone had entered her room.

The Progenitor of Magic, Hecate, gently rested her palm on the young lady's lower abdomen, and used her magic to monitor her condition.

"So far, no problem," Lady Hecate said with a smile. "Although the first signs of pregnancy will not be known for a few more weeks, I can't wait to see his reaction once he finds out."

The Progenitor of Magic pondered for a bit, if she should also render all of Ethan's lovers immune to contraception magic.

However, she tossed this matter to the side because she also understood that Ashmedai might seek her out if she went too far.

The Patron of Ethan's Family had turned a blind eye to her petty revenge because he was also curious to know how the young man would react once he discovered that he was going to be a father soon.

But he only allowed Hecate to do what he wanted because Lily was already married to Ethan, and was now part of his family.

For Ashmedai, nothing was more important than expanding the Valentin Family's lineage, as long as it was done in moderation.

After making sure that there were no complications for both mother and child, Lady Hecate vanished from Lily's room and reappeared inside the Tree House, where Nicole was resting.

The moment she appeared, Lilith, who was in her cat form, fell asleep instantly.

Lady Hecate then lightly tapped her head with her wand, making sure to erase the last five minutes of her memories.

"I never expected that I'd have a visitor this soon."

Nicole, who was sleeping on the bed a while ago, opened her eyes and smiled at the Progenitor of Magic.

"How are you, Baradiel?" Lady Hecate asked before sitting on the bed to look at her friend.

"I've seen better days," Baradiel replied. "Why are you here?"

"Oh you know, just being a busybody," Lady Hecate answered. "And I wanted to visit a friend. So, what are your plans with that child?"

"Which one?" Baradiel arched an eyebrow.

"That girl you're possessing," Lady Hecate replied.

A devilish smile appeared on Nicole's face, which was something that Ethan hadn't seen in a while.

"Why are you asking me a question that you already know the answer to?" Baradiel smirked.

"You're right." Hecate also smiled in a devilish manner because she could already see Ethan's face filled with despair. "I look forward to it."

The two powerhouses of the world smiled at each other because they knew that the event that they all dreaded, and looked forward to, would soon open its doors.

When that happened, the peace of the world would be broken, and only those who had the power to protect themselves would either survive to see the next era or perish before the light of dawn.
