Wizard World Irregular

After Ethan entered the portal, he found himself in what seemed to be a wetland.

Somehow, there was enough firm land to use as footing, but the surroundings were not much more than grasses and water.

As the young man looked around his surroundings, he noticed a faint golden light in the distance, reaching up to the heavens.

‘So that’s where the altar is,’ Ethan thought. ‘And also the place where everyone is headed to.’

Ethan then summoned his Wind Dancer, intending to fly toward his destination. However, nothing happened.

At first, he thought that the magic crystal that allowed it to fly was drained of magic, but after a quick check, he saw that it was still brimming with power.

This only meant one thing—flying didn't work in this environment.

However, just to make sure that his guess was correct, Ethan summoned his wand and cast the spell, Faerie Fuga, which gave him fairy-like wings behind his back.

He was already expecting his spell to not work, but after a few flaps of his wings, his body rose up from the ground.

‘So I can fly if I have wings, or is it only limited to fairy wings?’ Ethan mused.

During the discussion with the representatives, he remembered that the voices he heard seemed to belong to Fairies, which might be the reason why he could fly using fairy wings.

Since he had stocked up on magic powers before leaving the academy, this also meant that he also absorbed Fairy Magic by kissing Ruby and the other Fairies in the Garden of the academy.

This allowed him to use Fairy Magic, which was something that he was already familiar with.

As Ethan flew toward his destination, he saw several students on the ground either running or walking toward the golden pillar in the distance.

Naturally, Ethan didn't escape their notice, but they made no move to stop him.

Even after flying for quite some time with his fairy wings, the golden light still seemed to be very, very far from his current location.

According to Sebastian’s estimate, it was highly likely that Ethan would take around half a day to reach his destination.

Just as he was pondering on how to get there faster, he noticed something interesting in the distance.

Someone was actually running over the water at great speeds, sending a cloud of mist trailing behind them.

However, seeing who it was, Ethan immediately decided that ignoring the person was the best course of action.

But, there was one problem.

That person had no plans of ignoring Ethan!

“Ethaaaaaaaaan!” Lyall shouted. “Wait for me!”

Sebastian looked amused as he looked at Lily’s sister, while Ethan’s Other Half groaned and covered his face with his right hand after realizing that the crazy girl had somehow been transported near Ethan’s location.

“Yoohoo~ Why are you ignoring me?” Lyall asked as she caught up with Ethan, who was flying over a dozen meters above her. “Is this what they call hard to get? Is that your strategy, huh?”

‘I don’t see anything,’ Ethan chanted in his mind. ‘I don’t hear anything.’

The young man didn’t even give Lyall a sidelong glance and continued to fly as fast as he could.

However, the crazy girl with long red hair only found his reaction quite endearing. She continued to run right under Ethan because she had no intention of letting him get away.

But, after an hour of running, something unexpected happened.

Several Water Fairies emerged from the crystal clear waters and started shouting at them.

“Intruders!”

“Don’t let them reach Aria! Attack!”

“Um, there is a big fairy flying overhead. Should we attack him?

“Why would you think of attacking one of our kind? Target that crazy girl over there!”

“Right! Attack the crazy girl who is chasing our kind! Bring her down!”

“Attack!”

“Everyone attack!”

The Water Fairies began to summon countless Water Bullets and aimed them at Lyall, whom they thought was targeting their comrade at arms.

At first, Ethan couldn’t help but smirk because he found the fairies' words amusing.

However, the smile didn’t last long because he suddenly felt a burst of killing intent that spread out from Lyall’s body.

“You little insects!” Lyall roared. “Don’t get in my way!”

Lyall zigzagged across the water, evading the Water Bullets skillfully.

Her claws then extended in preparation for her counterattack.

With one swipe of her hand, a crimson crescent blade flew towards the Fairies, who were still bombarding her with countless Water Bullets.

Lyall’s attack was swift and deadly, leaving the Water Fairies no time to evade.

But, just before the attack hit them, Ethan summoned a wall of ice, stopping the attack in its tracks.

“Our comrade saved us!” one of the Water Fairies shouted.

“I knew it! He’s on our side!” another Water Fairy shouted. “Attack that crazy girl! Don’t let crazies attack our brethren!”

But just as the Fairies were about to unleash another bombardment, Ethan shouted, stopping them mid-cast.

“Wait! Stop! Don’t attack her! She’s not an enemy! Lyall, don’t attack the Fairies!”

The crazy girl, who was about to start a one-sided massacre, immediately retracted her claws and smiled sweetly.

“Anything you say, Darling~” Lyall said before stopping in front of Ethan and giving him a tight hug. “Hehehe~ make sure you don’t run away from me, okay? If not, you know what will happen to these girls… hehehe.”

All the Water Fairies looked at their “comrade” and shook their heads at the same time.

“No good! He stuck it inside the crazies!”

“There’s no going back for him.”

“Oh, the poor thing! Is that the reason why he became large?”

“Wait. Now that I’ve taken a good look at him, he’s not a fairy!”

“What? Is he a human? How come he can use Fairy magic then?”

“H-He tricked us?! He’s not a comrade?!”

All the Fairies who originally thought that Ethan was one of them immediately raised their guard, summoning countless Hydro Balls, ready to strike.

All the Fairies who originally thought that Ethan was one of them immediately raised their guard, summoning countless “Wait, don’t attack! Let me speak first.” Ethan shouted.

“We won’t believe you!” a Water Fairy glared at the young man, who was not a fairy like her.

“You won’t deceive us! We know you came because you want to kill Aria!”

“We won’t let you do what you want! This is our home! We will protect it!”

“Eliminate all intruders! Protect Aria!”

“Protect Aria!”

Seeing that the situation was desperate, Ethan decided to use his trump card.

He took out a bag from his storage ring. After swiftly fishing out a handful of candies from it, he threw them into the air.

The Fairies, who were about to unleash a magical bombardment, all froze for a brief moment before making a mad dash toward the candies that were falling from the sky.

“Mine!”

“What’s this sweet thing?!”

“Is this the food of the Gods?!”

“OMO, this is good!”

“Wow! Is he the mythical Sugar Daddy that was mentioned by those two adorable twin girls who accidentally entered this place a year ago?”

“Oh, are you talking about Maple and Cinnamon?”

“Those two are good girls. They shared with us those things they called gummy bears.”

“Then is he a sugar daddy?”

“If he is, then we can’t hurt him!”

“Must protect!”

Ethan grabbed another handful of candies and threw them high in the air, making the Water Fairies cheer in happiness.

The candies that fell in the water were easily retrieved by some of the Fairies, who were originally waiting to ambush Ethan and Lyall should they manage to pass their first line of defense.

Now, over a hundred of them were fighting over the candies Ethan had thrown, scrambling like pigeons in a park that were being fed with bread crumbs.

Lyall watched this scene with amusement while hugging Ethan from behind.

If Ethan didn’t want her to hurt these fairies, then she wouldn’t hurt them. After all, she didn’t want to do anything that would make the handsome young man she liked hate her.

With this, a temporary truce between Ethan and the Fairies was established.

Unfortunately, some of the Wizards and Witches who were teleported inside the Domain thought differently.

They didn’t even bother to communicate with the Water Fairies and immediately engaged them in combat, causing some of both Fairies and invaders to die.

As the news spread inside the Domain, the Fairies, Pixies, and High Pixies all banded together to eliminate the invaders, who decided to destroy the peace of their world and avenge their fallen comrades with a vengeance.
