Strongest Warlock - Wizard World Irregular
Chapter 913: Unfortunately, We Still Need To Deal With The Fish"Thank you for having us," Ethan said with a smile.
"Come visit us anytime," Sandra said as she hugged the young man. "Also, you can bring Lily as well so that we can also get to know her."
"I will," Ethan replied.
"Son, make sure to make my daughter happy." Devon patted the young man's shoulder.
"I will, Dad," Ethan promised.
After the couple was done bidding their farewell, Shirley gave Ethan a hug and stood on tiptoe to whisper something in his ears.
"If my sister dumps you, make sure to tell me," Shirley whispered.
"That won't happen," Ethan replied with a smile.
He had already gotten used to Shirley's teasing, and he knew that she was just joking.
At least, he thought that she was just joking."Tsk!" Shirley kicked her tongue before hugging her sister. "If you dump him, he's mine."
"Dream on," Samantha said before pinching her sister's cheek, making Shirley cry out in pain and surprise.
"Big Brother, thank you for the gift," Ron said with a smile as he held a magical toy car in his hands.
"I'll give you another one the next time we meet." Ethan patted the young man's shoulder.
After spending two days with Samantha's family, he had gotten very close to them.
Although he wasn't certain when he would have time to visit them again, he hoped that they would live a better life with the funds that he had given them.
Soon, the carriage they rented headed to the train station so that they could return to the academy.
This trip had made Ethan learn many things, as well as remember the happiness that could be found in living a simple life.
Unfortunately, he could no longer live a simple life, for he now carried too many responsibilities on his shoulders.
Perhaps, feeling melancholic, he thought about his grandparents back home.
He wondered what they were doing at the moment, and whether they were enjoying their life.
As he was thinking these thoughts, Samantha poked his cheek and asked what he was thinking.
"I'm glad you were raised by a good family," Ethan said.
"I'm glad as well," Samantha replied. "But being the eldest can be a bit taxing sometimes. Back then, I felt like I was carrying a heavy burden. But now, my shoulders are so light."
"That's good to hear." Ethan smiled.
The young lady became silent for a while before resting her head on Ethan's shoulder.
"What I said earlier is not entirely true. My burden didn't disappear." Samantha closed her eyes. "It's just that… you're now carrying it for me. Is it heavy?"
Ethan didn't answer right away and instead intertwined his fingers with Samantha's fingers.
"I'm strong," Ethan answered after a few minutes. "I can carry it without problems."
"Good." Samantha smiled sweetly. "In return, I'll make sure to carry your baby well."
A chuckle escaped the young man's lips because his lover truly said whatever came to her head.
'A baby, huh?' Ethan thought.
A part of him wanted to have a baby, but the other half understood that now was not a good time for it.
Because of this, his lovers always carried contraception potions with them, especially Samantha, who possessed nature magic, making her very fertile.
Brynhildr Academy…
Lily, who was eating in the Dining Hall, frowned because her appetite had increased as of late.
She thought that she was just exhausted because of her missions during the past week, but now that she had rested well in the academy, she realized that she was eating more than she used to.
'I'm not sick, am I?' Lily thought. 'I don't feel anything strange aside from my increased appetite. Is it because I've been more active during my training as of late?'
The young lady pondered before shaking her head.
'I might just be overthinking things,' Lily mused. 'Eating more isn't a problem for Beastkins. Maybe my bloodline abilities are maturing, so I need to eat more.'
Lily's family members had very large appetites, including Lyall and Conall, whom she was very close to.
Her father could eat an entire buffalo without problems, and still have room to spare.
Originally, she planned to visit the infirmary to have Professor Galena check her condition.
However, since she thought that her increased appetite was due to her being a Half-Beastkin, she decided to not bother the Professor because of such a small matter.
Just as she was about to leave after finishing her breakfast, she caught sight of Chloe, who was also headed for the doors of the Dining Hall.
It had been a while since the two of them had chatted with each other, so Lily decided to talk to her for a while.
"What happened to you?" Lily asked as she looked at the faint dark circles under Chloe's eyes. "Not getting any sleep as of late?"
"No," Chloe replied. "I just haven't been getting enough sleep because I stay up late at night reading books. By the way, did Ethan talk to you about his plan to look for Illumina?"
"He did." Lily nodded. "I'm just a bit sad because he will be away from the academy indefinitely. He's carrying so many responsibilities on his shoulders that I pity him sometimes.
"Also, he's not just doing this to find Illumina. He plans to make sure that the Fomorians won't make landfall here in the Shire Continent."
Chloe nodded. "It's quite unfortunate that we can't be there to support him when he wages his battle against them. But since they are going to fight in the sea, he will have many options available to him."
Lily glanced at the young lady who was walking by her side.
If she and Ethan hadn't gotten trapped in the past, she wouldn't have become Ethan's first wife.
That title might have been Luna's or Chloe's since the two were already very close to him before she even came into the picture.
Because of this, whenever she talked to these two ladies, she still felt a bit guilty for skipping the line and taking several steps ahead of them.
"While I'm not a hundred percent sure of what you're thinking, I believe Ethan made the right decision in marrying you first," Chloe said as she glanced at Lily with a smile. "If I were the one who got trapped with him in the Lands of Alastor, I'm sure that Ethan would not have been the only one who entered into a depression.
"Fortunately, someone strong-willed and courageous like you had been with him during that time. If not… then the current Ethan wouldn't have become so… awesome. So, thank you for that."
Lily's cheeks reddened because the former Ethan was just a spoiled country bumpkin, who only had his good looks going for him.
But now, he was the epitome of masculinity, which made Chloe and the rest of his lovers fall in love with him all over again.
Lily felt as if the stone that had been weighing in her heart had finally dropped to the ground.
This had been one of her worries.
But after talking to Chloe, she felt proud because she was the one who molded Ethan to become someone that stood out among the Wizards in the academy.
"Unfortunately, we still need to deal with the Fish." Chloe frowned. "That one is trouble."
"… You're right." Lily nodded. "That one is indeed trouble."
Illumina had been waiting for Ethan to appear in the world for hundreds of years.
This meant that among Ethan's lovers, her feelings for him were greater, because her love for the young man spanned for hundreds of years.
