Wizard World Irregular

Chapter 69 Ethan Gremory, I Challenge You To A Pillar Duel

The next day, Ethan found himself the center of everyone’s attention.

The wizards, and witches, who didn’t take him seriously in the past, now looked at him in a different light.

To Chloe’s frustration, the pretty and beautiful witches of the academy were now openly flirting with her cousin, even winking at him as he walked past them in the hallways.

“It sure is nice being Mr. Popular,” Chloe said with a pout.

“Well, this is just the outcome of my win against Langston,” Ethan replied helplessly. “It’s not my fault I was born handsome.”

His last comment earned him a pinch on his waist, which forced him to shut his trap and continue walking.

Since it was the weekend, they had no classes. Because of this, Ethan and Chloe decided to head to the library in order to study a bit about the territories surrounding Eastshire, in preparation for their upcoming Missions.

“The Exhibition Matches between the Manors has been moved two weeks from now,” Chloe commented. “It seems that something happened at the last minute, so the Headmaster and the Professors decided to change the date.”

“I almost forgot about that,” Ethan replied. “I guess I better make preparations as well.”

Now that he had understood a bit about his Origin Magic, Ethan knew that he had a difficult decision to make in two weeks’ time.

In order to use magic that would last for a day, he would need to kiss a Witch to absorb some of her Magical Powers.

Unfortunately, Luna’s Moon Magic would have long expired by then, so the handsome young man had to look for someone who might help him out with his dilemma.

The dream-like scene of him kissing Luna popped up inside his head, making Ethan’s face turn red.

After the celebration party, he took the opportunity to talk to Luna in private and apologized for what happened on the Island.

He also confessed how he was able to use Magic, which made the angelic beauty blush until the tips of her ears turn red.

When Luna said that it was her first kiss, Ethan felt as if the killing intent of Luna’s fans was all directed at him. If they discovered that their precious angel had been kissed by the hateful teenage boy, not even death could save him from their wrath.

Due to the nature of what transpired that night, Ethan and Luna both agreed that they would keep whatever happened a secret between the two of them.

“I-I don’t mind helping you again on the night of the full moon.”

That was what Luna had said back then, which made Ethan wonder if he had used up all the luck in his lifetime to have such a kind and angelic lady offer her lips to him, on the nights of the full moon.

“Why are you blushing, and what’s with that silly grin on your face?” Chloe asked with a frown. “You’re creeping me out.”

Ethan, who didn’t notice that he was blushing, and smiling from ear to ear, lightly clapped his face with both hands in order to regain his composure.

“I was just remembering how I beat Langston.” Ethan lied with a smile. “Remembering his face after his defeat puts a smile on my face.”

This time, it was Chloe’s turn to smile.

For her, Ethan’s win was her win, which also put her in a great mood after the duel ended. However, that great mood didn’t last for long because she felt that her cousin had become a hot commodity among the witches.

This was something that she didn’t want to happen, which made her a bit anxious.

“Ethan, what will you do if a beautiful Witch confesses her love to you?” Chloe asked as calmly as possible. “Will you accept her confession?”

“Well, it’s hard to say,” Ethan replied while rubbing his chin. “If they were as beautiful as Luna and you, and Nicole, I might consider it.”

Just as Chloe was about to retort, they heard a teasing voice from behind them.

“Oh? So, it’s fine if I confess to you?”

The two teenagers turned around and saw the pink-haired beauty, Nicole, standing right behind them.

“Well…,” Ethan looked at Nicole from head to foot then up again before giving a thumbs up. “Why not?”

Chloe, who was standing beside him didn’t react and simply crossed her arms over her chest.

She had been with Ethan long enough to know that his cousin was just joking.

Ethan also felt that Nicole was somewhat dangerous, despite the friendly attitude that she presented whenever they were together.

She was like a snake that was waiting patiently for her prey to come within range before she delivered a poisonous bite that would end their pitiful lives.

“Are the two of you headed to the Library?” Nicole asked.

“Yes,” Chloe replied.

“What a coincidence, I’m also headed there right now,” Nicole stated. “Let’s all go together.”

Ethan and Chloe glanced at each other. Both knew that Nicole’s “coincidence” was just a bunch of hogwash, but there was nothing they could do about it.

“Sure.” Ethan smiled. “Let’s go.”

The young man hadn’t even taken a single step when he felt a gaze on his back.

Looking behind him, he saw one of the Pillars of the First Years, looking at him with a smile.

“Ethan Gremory, I challenge you to a Pillar duel,” Lily declared. “Winner takes all.”

Ethan blinked once, then twice, as he looked at the cutest among the First Years that were currently in Brynhildr Academy.

The word cute seemed to be made just for Lily, that even Ethan couldn’t find another word that best described her.

“You wish,” Ethan replied before walking away in a hurry.

His reaction made Lily giggle. Clearly, she was only joking when she challenged Ethan to a duel.

Although she was confident that she could beat Ethan in the past, now was different. There was just something about him that gave him an air of mystery.

A Half-Resonance was enough of a threat for her to openly challenge the blue-haired boy, who was currently the hot topic of discussion within the entire academy.
