Strongest Warlock - Wizard World Irregular

Ethan didn’t know how long he had been crying.

It was as if he was crying a lifetime’s worth of tears, and there was no sign of it stopping anytime soon.

He tried to call out to Sebastian and his Other Half from inside his head, but the two were nowhere to be found.

They were not there to give him some advice or tell him what was happening to him.

At first, he thought that he was under some kind of spell, one that forcefully flipped his switch to feel extremely sad.

But Ethan knew that he wasn’t under any spell.

He knew this with every fiber of his being.

The person in front of him wouldn’t do such a petty thing, for he didn’t need to do something like that.

So the young man did the only thing he could at that moment. He cried.

Ethan didn’t know if he had been crying for hours, days, weeks, or even years, but at some point, the tears did stop and, with it, clarity returned to his mind.

As he wiped the last stream of tears from his face, he stood up to look at the Giant’s severed head in front of him.

Although the Giant had his eyes closed, he looked very peaceful as if he was just sleeping.

Taking a deep breath, Ethan started to walk towards the giant with steady steps. He walked over the surface of the lake and only stopped when a sigh escaped the Giant’s lips.

Slowly but surely, the Giant’s eyes opened and gazed at the young man, who was gazing back at him with uncertainty.

"Have we met before?” Ethan asked before the Giant could even say anything. “I feel like I’ve known you all my life, and yet, I can’t remember who you are.”

"Yes and no,” the Giant answered softly. “We’ve met before, but this is our first meeting in this lifetime.”

Ethan wanted to say that he didn’t understand, but he decided to not say anything and only held the Giant’s gaze.

"I’ll introduce myself first.” The Giant smiled. “My name is Mimir.”

"My name is Ethan,” Ethan replied. “Ethan Gremory.”

Mimir nodded. “A good name that means firm, enduring, and strong—traits that you will need when you face a future that is filled with uncertainty. Now, since you’ve come to ask me what I can offer you, I’ll give you the answer that you are looking for.”

The Giant Head gave Ethan a mischievous gaze before continuing his words.

"What I can give you is Wisdom. But do not think that signing a pack with me will make you incredibly smart. No. That is not how my blessings work.

"If you make a pact with me, you will be able to read, write, and speak all the known languages in the world. When seeing a creature for the first time, you will gain the information about that creature inside of your head.

"You will also be immune to any spell or abilities that will affect your mind and decrease the effect of those that can affect your body by half.

"That is the first level of my blessing. As for the second? Once activated, you will be able to learn and remember things very easily. For instance, if you want to learn how to dance, you will learn it in less than an hour.

"The same can be said for cooking, martial arts, and any other skills that can be learned through physical training and mental memorization. Speaking about memory, you will be able to remember everything perfectly. Humans call this Eidetic Memory or Photographic Memory.

"Simply put, once you have mastered the second level, you will be able to recall everything with vivid clarity.”

"Mastering the first and second levels of my Origin Magic is important because it will help you unlock the Third Level of its power.

"The Third Stage of my magic will allow you to cast Rune Magic.

"By writing symbols on the ground, on air, on water, or anywhere, you will be able to cast Rune Magic, which is a different branch of Magic. Understanding how each rune works can amplify your magic spells—if you will it, you can make a feather as heavy as a boulder and an egg as hard as steel.

"It has many applications, but you first need to understand the power of Words. On this level, you will also learn how to shapeshift. Unlike the Tide Bringer’s Third Level, which consumes a lot of magical power, the transformation doesn’t drain you of any magical power.

"Simply put, you can transform even if you don’t have any magic reserves inside your body. However, you can only transform into four forms—into a Wolf, a Raven, a Mouse, and a Salmon.

"Know that these transformations are not simple transformations. All of them will be ten times stronger than their regular counterparts.”

Mimir paused before explaining the abilities of each creature.

"As a Wolf, you can fight against even the strongest of Griffins.”

"As a Raven, you can fly against a raging storm.”

"As a mouse, you can bite through steel chains.”

"And as a Salmon, you can swim against the currents of the world.”

Ethan crossed his arms over his chest as he listened to the Giant Mimir.

The powers that he would gain from making a pact with him weren’t really combat-oriented. However, they were also very useful.

Professor Barret once told him that there were very ancient tomes and manuscripts inside the Forbidden Area of the Academy’s Library.

Unfortunately, some of those languages were already lost, so no one was able to decipher them.

Also, Ethan was very interested in using Rune Magic.

He wanted to know if there was a big difference between the Magic he was using and Rune Magic.

"The Fourth and Fifth Levels of my Origin Magic are still too early for you to know,” Mimir said with a smile. “But, perhaps, after a year, or two, you will be able to learn them as well.”

Ethan nodded in understanding.

Unlike the Purple Mist, who was very friendly, Mimir was soft-

Spoken and mild. He wasn’t like a salesman trying to sell his wares, and only told Ethan what he needed to know about his pact.

Also, for some reason, he trusted Mimir very much.

This was something that he couldn’t explain, especially since this was his first time meeting the Giant’s Head.

"Can I ask you a question?” Ethan asked.

"Why not?” Mimir smiled.

"Are you alive, or is the you that I am seeing now just a Will of your former self?”

Due to circumstances outside of my control, I was killed and beheaded, but a powerful being reanimated my head. Even as I speak to you now, I am in a very faraway place.

"Out of reach of ordinary mortals and even the Deities of the Nine Realms. Since I hold vast knowledge, I am deemed too important to fall into dangerous hands—for I know the truths about the world, the secret entrances that lead to the different realms.

"I know the things that are about to happen in the not-so-

Distant future, as well as the answers to almost all questions. If one asks me how to become immortal, I will not be able to resist their inquiry.

"If one asks me how to become a God… then that person will become a God. However, one can only ask me these questions once they find my head.”

The Giant who held all the Wisdom of the world looked at the young man, who was looking back at him with worry etched across his face.
