Wizard World Irregular

The appearance of the Ancient Wendigo was truly expected.

Even Joanne, who had always been strong-willed, couldn’t help but shudder after being gazed at by the diabolical creature who was known to devour those who were unlucky enough to cross its path.

But, after seeing that Ethan was in possession of one, she felt disgusted instead of afraid. In her eyes, someone who could control such a vile creature must be equally vile as well.

“You… how dare you desecrate this place?!” Joanne shouted, and the castle seemed to tremble as if answering her call.

The Heads of the Protector Clans were alarmed because the meeting of the Brother and Sister pair seemed to have gone off in the wrong direction.

“Calm down.” Wallace casually sipped his wine as if what was happening wasn’t a big deal. “This is the first time they’ve seen each other after several years, so it's normal for something like this to happen.

“Also, you don’t have to worry about anything. That girl will never be in danger. Ethan will never hurt her. Our family raised him properly, so he wouldn’t harm anyone, especially a girl, unless she crossed his bottom line. Right now, that bottom line has still not been crossed.

“If it comes to that, I will personally step in to stop it. So, let them duke it out. Maybe they will better understand each other after everything comes to an end.”

The Heads of the Protector Clans pondered Wallace’s words before shifting their gazes to Enzo.

He was the only one among them who had spent time with Ethan.

“Will he really not hurt the Young Miss?” the Matriarch of the Elves, Heleth, asked.

“I’ve been watching him closely since I arrived in Eastshire, and based on my observation, I think Sir Wallace here has a point,” Enzo replied. “Let’s trust the Young Master for now.”

The Heads of the other Protector Clans reluctantly nodded their heads and shifted their attention to Joanne, whose magical powers were creating gusts of wind around her.

The trembling of the castle continued for a few more seconds before everyone heard a faint rumbling sound that was coming from on top of the staircase.

A few seconds later, hundreds of stuffed toys of different designs flew down the staircase and hovered behind Joanne.

“Get him!” Joanne ordered, and the hundreds of stuffed toys flew toward Ethan with a vengeance.

The young man didn't bother making a move. Behind him, a portal appeared and released countless Fairies, who were shouting war cries as if they were Amazon Warriors.

Lapis, the first Fairy whom Ethan had summoned from his Celestial Domain, grabbed hold of a teddy bear flying toward her Master and spun it in the air.

A moment later, she slammed it into the ground like a wrestler. However, it didn’t end there. With a shout filled with determination, the Fairy elbowed the Teddy Bear’s face, making Ethan’s eyes widen in shock.

The other Fairies, who decided to help their Master, were doing the same thing.

Instead of using spells to annihilate the stuffed toys, they fought them in close combat.

Some of the Fairies even used boxing and unleashed a flurry of jabs, straights, hooks, and uppercuts, overwhelming their opponents in sheer fighting abilities.

A couple of others even triple-teamed a single plushie, taking turns in slapping, kicking, and headbutting them like gangsters on the streets.

There were also several Fairies, like Lapis, who used Martial Arts against the plushies that faced them in battle as if they were battle-hardened MMA Fighters who had fought a thousand rounds in the cage.

Those who were in the Event Hall couldn’t help but look at this all-out battle with shock and awe.

This wasn’t the first time they had seen Fairies since there were many of them living in Caer Wydion, especially in the territory of the Elves.

But, they had never seen such brutal and barbaric Fairies in their lifetime, making them wonder if they were really Fairies or Gremlins in fairy form.

Even the stuffed toys couldn’t help but tremble as they faced a horde of Fairies of different elements, all hell-bent on giving them a piece of their fists!

The Event Hall, which was very lively a while ago, had turned into an arena for a Battle Royale.

The Fairies outnumbered and outclassed the Plushies. Spectators watching the battle from the side couldn’t help but feel their blood boil due to how intense the battle was.

Even Ethan didn’t expect that the Fairies living inside his Celestial Domain were capable of physical brutality, making him vow to himself that he would do his best to not offend them.

‘… Lapis said that they want a chocolate fountain near their Candy Tree,’ Sebastian commented. “Make sure to create one later.’

Ethan nodded in agreement because he could never look at the Fairies the same way again.

Several minutes later, the brawl finally settled down as all the plushies laid on the ground, with some of the Fairies biting their ears, stepping on their heads, and slapping their heads silly while saying “You want a piece of me, huh?! You want a piece of me?!”

Joanne’s body shivered not out of fright, but out of anger.

She had never encountered anyone who dared to defy her in Caer Wydion.

No one dared to defy her because she was their Princess.

“I’ll end you myself,” Joanne said coldly as she took out her wand.

“Nox Aria!”

Immediately, the Event Hall was covered in complete darkness.

Joanne’s Origin Magic was Dark Magic, and Doll Manipulation was her Core Magic.

Ethan and Sebastian were surprised to see that someone as young as Joanne was already able to cast a Domain.

If she were in Eastshire, she would be treated as a Prodigy among Prodigies.

“You could have just left.”

Joanne’s cold words spread in the darkness, making those that had been caught up in her Domain tense.

Even those who had Dark Vision weren’t able to see her because her Darkness Domain was darker than black.

“You should have just stayed in the countryside and never showed up in this place.”

From within the darkness, something diabolical started to stir, making ripples within the Domain.

“Just because you’re here, did you think that you would immediately become part of the Valentin Family? Even if you shed your surname, Gremory, I will not recognize you as my brother!”

Ethan’s eyes glowed faintly in the darkness as he activated his X-Vision. Others might not be able to pierce through the Darkness, but he wasn’t one of them.

He could perfectly see where Joanne was and the being that was standing behind her, which looked like the manifestation of her Origin Magic.

‘That’s a Dark Walker,’ Ethan’s Other Half commented. “A mage who has thrown themselves into the depths of Darkness to obtain a power that transcends the norm. If that is her Origin Magic, then there is a chance that she, too, will become a Dark Walker and stop being completely human.”

Ethan frowned after hearing the words of his Other Half, not liking what he just heard.

Joanne might still be years away from turning into a Dark Walker herself, but he would prevent it as early as possible. He wouldn’t let something happen to his family.

“Mimir’s Wisdom,” Ethan muttered, and his Origin Magic flared to life, allowing him to learn the information he needed to know about Dark Walkers, as well as a way to neutralize his sister without harming her in the process.
