Wizard World Irregular

Several hours later, the three walked hand in hand in silence.

Chloe was averting her gaze, and the same could be said for Luna.

Both of their faces were red, unable to brush away the thoughts of what transpired between the three of them an hour ago.

Only Ethan was able to keep his calm as he walked in the middle of the two ladies, who held a special place in his heart.

He admitted that he got carried away and moved too fast. But, he didn’t regret it. He wanted to know if Chloe was ready to share him with others, and judging by how she reacted, she seemed to be a little open to the idea.

‘Things like this can’t be rushed,’ Ethan thought as he continued to walk at a steady pace. ‘I’ll take it slowly until Chloe is ready.’

Half an hour later, they arrived at the Oswald Residence to the relief of Selene, who had been non-stop pampered, petted, and kissed by Irene, Briana, and Rhea due to how cute and adorable she was.

“Luna!” Selene immediately transformed into her Carbuncle form the moment her Master appeared.

Luna held her and apologized for leaving her alone. She then started to pet her, and Selene buried her face in her chest, enjoying her Master’s attention.

‘Something smells fishy,’ Selene thought. ‘But it’s none of my business.’

The Carbuncle closed her eyes to enjoy Luna’s petting. She knew her Master’s relationship with Ethan, and she understood that Humans were a short-lived race.

Because of this, they would often procreate to increase their numbers. In her eyes, Ethan and Luna mating with each other was perfectly normal.

“I’ll rest early tonight, Luna,” Chloe said. “Good night, everyone.”

After bidding everyone good night, Chloe headed up the stairs toward Luna’s room. She was afraid that if she stayed in the living room, everyone would have suspicions due to how red her face was.

Fortunately, the men had retired early for the night because they were dead tired after what had happened during the day.

Ethan was no exception, and he also went back to his room right away to sleep.

He had just changed his clothes when he suddenly heard a knock on the door of his room.

When he opened it, he saw Emma wearing a one-piece night dress, holding a pillow in her arms.

The young man understood what she wanted, and he opened the door wider to allow her to enter the room.

The two then slept together, in a literal sense, hugging each other in their sleep.

The next day…

Ethan woke up early, and judging by how dark the sky was through his window, he estimated that it would take a while before the sun rose in the east.

Within the darkness of his room, he noticed the rune on Emma’s chest glowing through her nightdress.

This usually happened whenever she was alone with Ethan, allowing both of their souls to resonate with each other.

It was a very pleasant feeling to be connected to her like this. It was like breathing the fresh air from the countryside after getting used to the pollution in the city.

Or drinking a cold glass of water after wandering in the hot desert for an entire day.

It was that kind of feeling, making him understand that his Other Half’s words about his Promised One were spot on.

His mind was clear, and his body felt revitalized.

Due to kissing Chloe several times, he felt his entire body brimming with power, making him feel very much alive.

Since he didn’t have anything planned for the day, he decided to stay on the bed and continued to hug Emma, who was sleeping peacefully in his arms.

‘Sebastian, how did I manage to use the Third Stage of my Legacy without receiving too much of a backlash?’ Ethan asked.

‘Good question!’ Sebastian replied. ‘I thought you would never ask. Well, the answer is really simple.

‘The moment you accepted Lilian as your potential partner and received her kiss, the Legacies in both of your bodies resonated. This strengthened a bit of your spiritual power, allowing you to use your Grand Aria up to twenty seconds max with fewer repercussions. But there was one more reason.

‘Most powers need to reach a certain requirement to manifest. For example, some high-level spells require higher mana reserves to cast. As for your Legacy, it relies on both your Magic Reserves and Spiritual Power.’

Ethan’s Other Half, who was listening to the conversation, added to the conversation as well.

‘In short, aside from being kissed by Lilian, strengthening your spiritual connection with Emma made your soul stronger,’ Ethan’s Other Half explained. ‘So, if you continue to strengthen your soul, the longer the duration of your Grand Aria, as well as your Resonance. If you reach a certain threshold, you will be able to manifest Illumina’s full power, turning your Partial Resonance into a true Resonance.’

Ethan’s understanding of how his Legacy worked shifted after hearing Sebastian’s and his Other Half’s explanation.

In the past, he thought that as long as he had a large enough magical reserve, he would be able to cast his Resonance, as well as use his Legacy without problems.

Now, he knew that he also needed to find ways in order to increase his Spiritual Power. Of course, he could easily do this by simply sleeping beside Emma every night.

But this would not be possible once they returned to Brynhildr Academy.

Emma belonged to the Schwartz Manor, and it would raise suspicions if she stayed in Dud Manor almost every night.

Aside from that, she would also be alienated by her peers, for the Schwartz Manor didn’t see eye to eye with Dud Manor.

The Schwartz Manor were like the Nobles of the Kingdom, while the Dud Manor were the commoners.

In their eyes, the Duds were not their equals, and mingling with them would degrade their Noble bloodline.

Of course, this concept was slowly changing, especially after Ethan’s recent performances.

Even the young Witches of the Schwartz Manor had to admit that he was a very fine young man. So fine that even the Blue Bloods of the Wizarding World sought him out.
