Wizard World Irregular

Chapter 872: A Very Special Surprise



As the sun was about to set on the horizon, a team of four teenagers riding on their flying brooms slowly descended from the sky.

In the distance, the outline of Brynhildr Academy could be seen, making them sigh in relief. "We're almost there!" a Witch said with excitement. "I can finally take a bath!"

"I can finally sleep on my soft bed," another Witch commented.

"We're just in time for dinner... no more eating beef jerky and other food rations!" A third Witch raised her clenched fists, making the other Witches laugh because they shared her sentiments.

Lily, who was acting as the rear guard of her team, smiled faintly. She agreed that it had been indeed a long, exhausting mission.

Just like her friends, she wanted nothing more than to take a bath, eat a proper dinner, and sleep on her soft, comfortable bed.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

But just as they neared the academy, they saw another group flying in the distance.

Using her exceptional eyesight, Lily was able to recognize Luna, Joanne, Princess Ramona, Sabrina, and a few other witches, escorted by Professor Barret.

"You girls go ahead," Lily said. "I'll meet up with Luna and the others."

Without even waiting for a reply, Lily sped away and headed in the direction of the second group, whose members she hadn't seen for the past few days.

When she got nearer, she immediately noticed the look of exhaustion on the teenage girls' faces as if they had been flying non-stop without rest.

She knew that their mission was to escort a merchant group, so she thought that they were just tired from their journey.

Because of this, she decided to say hello and ask them if they successfully completed their mission.

"Luna, it's good to see you," Lily greeted. "How was your mission?"

All the Witches looked at Lily with conflicted expressions on their faces as if they didn't know how to answer her question.

"Something unexpected happened during their mission," Professor Barret answered as he glanced at Ethan's wife. "This is not a good place to talk about it, so please ask them once they have returned safely to their Manors."

Lily, who heard the exhaustion in Professor Barret's voice, knew that something bad must have happened, so she no longer asked any questions and simply followed them until they landed within the gates of the academy.

Instead of heading straight to Jaeger Manor, she followed Luna, Joanne, and Princess Ramona to Dud Manor to find out what exactly happened on their mission.

Several minutes later...

"Several witches are disappearing without a trace in Grandshire and the areas bordering it?" Lily frowned. "And Ethan, Lilian, and Cedric have gone to Grandshire to find the cause of the problem?"

Luna nodded. "Yes."

"This is indeed a troublesome case," Lily frowned.

Now she could understand why Professor Barret personally escorted the Witches back to the academy.

Since a student had gone missing, they acted quickly and evacuated the rest of the Witches to avoid any more incidents.

Knowing that this was outside of their control, Lily knew that they could only wait and let it be handled by the Magistratus, as well as the Rescue Teams, who were currently scouring Grandshire to find traces of the missing Witches.

After leaving Dud Manor, Lily returned to Jaeger Manor.

The first thing she heard were her Manor Mates talking about Samantha's disappearance during their mission.

There were four teams that had accompanied the merchants on the escort mission, and one of those teams belonged to Jaeger Manor.

Just like what Luna, Joanne, and Princess Ramona had said, Samantha disappeared in the middle of the night during the time when she had left the camp to relieve herself.

'I hope they find her soon,' Lily thought as she climbed up the stairs that led to the third floor of the Manor, where her room was located.

Every year, while the Mission Hall was open, the students would encounter accidents and incidents during the missions.

They knew the risks and were even required to sign waivers before their mission could be approved, ensuring that the academy wouldn't be persecuted if something untoward happened to them while on their mission.

As one of the Peace Keepers during her First Year, Lily knew that the academy did their best to protect their students while they were completing their Field Missions.

In fact, she was one of the Witches who immediately responded to the SOS of Chloe and the others when they were ambushed by Rogue Wizards acting as bandits.

It was also during this mission that she and Ethan were forced to escape through the Nexus, sent to the past, and fell in love with each other.

For her, that experience was a blessing in disguise. Although she experienced hardships, if it didn't happen, she wouldn't have found the love of her life who made her complete.

After taking a much needed bath, she wore comfortable clothes before heading to the Grand Dining Hall of the academy.

There, news of Samantha's disappearance had started to spread, and Professor Rinehart made an announcement that they were doing their best to find her as soon as possible.

When dinner ended, Lily returned straight to her room to rest.

She had only eaten a light dinner because she wanted to sleep early.

The young lady was simply too tired, and the moment her head touched her soft pillows, she fell asleep in less than a minute.

Five minutes later, the window of her room slowly opened, and a breeze made the curtain flutter.

An enchanting lady with long red hair and red eyes appeared inside the room, and walked toward the sleeping witch.

Her steps were light and didn't make any sound.

She briefly glanced at Lily's sleeping face before she extended her hand to touch her abdomen.

Faint tendrils of magic passed through her hand, seeping into Lily's body. It was as if she was checking something.

A moment later, a faint smile appeared on her face as she withdrew her hand.

Hecate, the Progenitor of Magic, slowly moved toward the window with a satisfied look on

her face.

'I wonder how he will react once he finds out,' Hecate thought with amusement. "This is payback for what you did in my domain.'

She had used her magic on Lily, preventing the effect of contraception potions, or any similar artifacts with the same effect from working.

Hecate had done this before Ethan had managed to return to Brynhildr Academy from his trip

to Midgard.

Lyall had stated that the two liked to do it like bunnies whenever they were together, but they always made sure to use contraception to prevent a child from being conceived.

So she thought that this would be a good way to make the teenage boy understand that she

could be very petty when it came to grudges.

Even someone like her, who lived for thousands of years, held grudges.

The Progenitor of Magic gave the sleeping girl one last glance before slowly turning

transparent to return to her own domain.

A moment later, the window of Lily's room slowly closed, as if nothing had happened.

Lily slept soundly without a care in the world, not knowing that one of the Progenitors of the world had personally come to visit to check on her condition.

Hecate had heard from Lyall that her sister was Ethan's wife, and because of this, she decided to mess with the teenage boy and give him a very special surprise, which would shock him to

his very core.
