Wizard World Irregular

A few minutes before Selene charged towards the Black Giant Snake…

“Ethan, your opponent is not an easy one to defeat,” Ethan’s Other Half said in a solemn tone. “Even if you use the Tide Bringer’s Legacy, you can only use a third of its potential on land. Your teammates also don't have any strong spells that could penetrate the Giant Snake’s Armor.”

Ethan agreed with what his Other Half was saying. And he also understood that the one sharing his body wouldn’t just start a small talk with him out of the blue.

This meant that his Other Half would either advise him to flee with everyone or tell him how to defeat his opponent.

“Do you remember the Ancient Wendigo you captured earlier?” Ethan’s Other Half asked.

“Yes,” Ethan replied.

“I have successfully made it your subordinate. However, it’s still seriously injured. It might not be a match against that Giant Snake now, but it could intimidate it. Judging by what happened in the Deathseeker Forest a few days ago, it seems that the Giant Snake was the Ancient Wendigo’s lackey.

“If we make it appear on the battlefield, it might affect your opponent’s morale, temporarily making it lose its momentum. When that happens, you must do your best to deliver a strike that could either kill or seriously injure that monster. You only have one chance.”

Ethan was pleasantly surprised to know that his Other Half was able to tame the Ancient Wendigo.

However, this knowledge also made him more wary of his counterpart who hid inside his Sea of Consciousness.

Although he knew that his Other Half was on his side, he couldn’t help but shake the feeling that he could take over his body whenever he wanted.

As if reading his thoughts, Ethan’s Other Half only laughed inside his head, not confirming or denying the young man’s worries.

‘We’ve already talked about this in the past,’ Ethan’s Other Half stated. “I don’t like repeating myself. Whether you think of me as your ally or enemy is entirely up to you. But I'd like to make an exception this time. Ethan, I am not your enemy. As long as you understand that, you don’t have to fear me.

Ethan reluctantly nodded his head and once again shifted his attention to the battle.

He knew that Selene wouldn’t be able to defeat the Giant Snake alone, so he also charged forward with the intention of backing her up.

It was at that moment when the Black Giant Snake unleashed a powerful shock wave that blew his teammates hundreds of meters away.

Ethan was able to hold his ground because he had stabbed his Trident on the ground, allowing him to stand firm.

However, the Black Snake’s attacks also had an effect on his body, causing blood to seep from the corner of his lips.

His internal organs were shaken quite a bit by the attack, temporarily rendering him unable to move.

But, when he saw that the Giant Snake was about to devour Selene, a voice spoke inside his head, telling him the name of the creature that was now under his command.

“Dainsleif!” Ethan roared.

Immediately afterward, a Black Mist emerged from Morrigan’s Ring and shot towards the Little Girl who was lying on the ground.

Ethan was only able to breathe a sigh of relief after seeing that the Ancient Wendigo had successfully rescued Selene from the Monster, who planned on eating her whole.

Knowing what was going to happen next, Ethan took out his wand and pointed it forward.

At the same time that Selene screamed, after seeing the Ancient Wendigo carrying her like a Princess, the young man also activated another one of his Trump Cards.

“Illumina!”

Ethan’s body was engulfed by a torrent of water that shot toward the Giant Snake like a torpedo.

He could see that his enemy was momentarily frozen in place after seeing the Ancient Wendigo, giving Ethan enough time to close the distance between them.

“Rising Dragon Thrust!”

Ethan knew that if he randomly attacked the Giant Snake’s body, he might not be able to instantly deal a deadly blow to his target.

Because of this, he targeted the crack on the monster’s scales, which was caused by the attack he had made earlier.

When the snake heard the vibration of a Dragon’s Roar, coming from its right side, it was already too late to do anything.

Ethan’s trident pierced through the crack in its body, embedding half of it inside, making the monster scream in pain and shock.

It then tried to shake off the Human who had attacked it during its moment of confusion, but Ethan had no intention of letting go.

Channeling the power of Lightning into the Sea God’s Trident, Ethan dealt the Monster a deadly blow.

Perhaps, in its final attempt to kill its attacker, who had dealt it a very serious injury, the Giant Snake slammed its body on the ground and started to do a death roll.

Ethan coughed out a mouthful of blood as his body was slammed into the ground, but he still refused to let go of his Trident and once again activated the power of his Sea God’s Trident.

“Aqua Burst!” Illumina shouted.

The Sea God’s Trident which was embedded inside the monster, unleashed several water spears that pierced through its body from the inside out.

Illumina harnessed all the Magical Powers inside Ethan’s body and further intensified the attack, creating countless water spears that pierced through every part of the Giant Snake’s insides, making its blood shower like a fountain.

After what seemed like an eternity, the Giant Monster uttered its dying screech before its body finally crashed on the ground.

Only when it was in its dying moments did it realize that the Ancient Wendigo was seriously injured and had been weakened considerably, no longer making it a threat to it.

However, it was already too late to do anything.

Its momentary shock upon seeing the creature that had treated it like a servant was all that Ethan needed to deliver a serious injury on its body.

Due to its confusion, instead of fleeing, it decided to kill Ethan alongside it.

It believed that no matter where it ran, the Ancient Wendigo wouldn’t let it escape after it consumed the treasure that it hid in its lair in the Deathseeker Forest.

If only it was able to think clearly, it would have realized that there was nothing to fear, and it could have handled the situation in a more appropriate manner.

Unfortunately, it was already too late for regrets as it breathed its last breath.

Ethan, who was lying a few meters away from the Giant Snake, was covered in blood.

He had several broken bones in his body, and he was in too much pain to even lift a finger.

If not for the fact that the blood essence of a Deity had greatly strengthened his body and given him strong regenerative abilities, he might have kicked the bucket by now.

Although he was in pain, the young man knew that after two or three days, he would fully recover from his injuries.

“You’re quite reckless, Ethan,” Illumina said with a bitter smile on her face.

‘Sorry,’ Ethan replied through telepathy because he was in too much pain to speak.

The mermaid princess shook her head before lowering her head to kiss Ethan’s lips.

A moment later, the young man felt a refreshing feeling wash over his body, reducing the pain that was tormenting him.

“I used a healing spell on you, but since the injuries you received were severe, you will still need a full day to recover,” Illumina said softly. “Next time, don’t cling to Giant Monsters. It will only be a painful experience.”

“I can’t promise you that,” Ethan replied.

Illumina lightly poked Ethan’s nose and smiled. “I know.”

A second later, she transformed into Ethan’s wand, landing gently on his chest and lying completely still.

It was quite fortunate that Ethan had just absorbed Luna’s power, allowing Illumina to use stronger spells in order to deal the killing blow to the Monster.

Perhaps, if they weren’t fighting on the night of the full moon, things might have ended differently for all of them.

Ethan suddenly felt a strong urge to sleep, making him unable to keep his eyes open.

This was one of the side effects of Illumina’s Spell, which hastened the recovery of his body.

However, before he completely closed his eyes, he felt Luna’s soft hands cradle his head and saw her worried gaze looking down on him.

“Don’t worry,” Ethan said as he closed his eyes. “I’m just a little tired. I’ll be better when I wake up tomorrow.”

“Okay,” Luna replied as she lightly brushed aside the hair that was covering her lover’s face. “I’ll keep watch over you.”

“Thank you.”

That was the last thing that Ethan said before closing his eyes to sleep.

He wasn’t aware that Selene had fainted in the Ancient Wendigo’s arms out of fright.

Unfortunately, none of his teammates dared to make a move to approach the Monster that was like a nightmare who had come to life.

It was a good thing that the Ancient Wendigo had no intent of remaining outside due to its injuries.

The Monster casually dropped Selene on the ground, making the Little Girl cry out in pain before turning into a black mist that flew towards the ring on Ethan’s finger.

Emma, who looked at her sleeping Master, addressed the others, who had witnessed something that they shouldn’t have.

“Whatever you saw today, keep it a secret until Master says otherwise,” Emma stated. “Do I make myself clear?”

Bridged, Sefarina, Ace, and Archer all nodded their heads at the same time.

They knew that Nightfall Academy had entered the Legacy Gate to specifically hunt down the Ancient Wendigo.

If they knew that the Monster that they were looking for was in Ethan’s possession, they would certainly take action.

Since the five of them were his Protectors, they understood that they shouldn’t let anyone know of this incident.

Just as they were about to take Ethan somewhere safe, the handsome young man opened his eyes.

Luna, who was cradling his head, came face to face with a familiar set of purple eyes that she had seen twice in her lifetime.

“Excuse me for a bit,” Ethan’s Other Half said as he propped himself up, surprising everyone.

Emma could feel the mark on her chest heating up, allowing her to recognize the one that was currently possessing Ethan’s body.

Ethan’s Other Half ignored all of them and walked towards the Giant Snake that lay dead on the ground.

“It would be a shame to leave this behind,” Ethan’s Other Half said as he waved his hand to his right side.

Immediately, the body of the Sand Wurm that Ethan had stored several days ago appeared in front of everyone

Although the young man’s storage ring could store many things, the size of the giant Snake was simply too much, so he decided to throw away some stuff to make some space for it.

After storing the Giant Snake inside Morrigan’s Ring, the handsome young man walked toward Luna and once again laid down on the ground.

He even held the young lady’s hands, allowing her to cradle his head before winking at her.

“Thanks,” Ethan’s Other Half said before closing his eyes, leaving everyone rooted on the ground and not understanding what just happened right before their eyes.
