Strongest Warlock - Wizard World Irregular

"Since the Cauldron of Dagda is already soul bound to her, the only one that can use it is her," Chloe said in a calm tone. "Even if you take it by force, it will be useless. The only way that you can make it yours is if you kill her."

The young lady pursed her lips because this was something that Ethan wouldn't do no matter what.

She knew that the person she loved had changed from that naive farm boy, into a mature and dependable person.

While Ethan wouldn't hesitate to kill when the need to kill arose, he wasn't a bloodthirsty person, who would just kill anyone because they disagreed with him.

"Is there no other way?" Ethan asked.

"There is, but it's only a temporary fix," Chloe replied. "You can ask her to grant you shared permission of the artifact. But, this contract will not last very long. At most, it will only last a few days to a week."

After thinking about the matter, Chloe knew that if she wanted to do what she needed to do, Princess Ariel must fully cooperate with them.

"Ethan, what I need is to have all four treasures of the Tuatha De Danann be together in the same place," Chloe explained. "Since the Sword of Light, Claiomh Solais, is in the Kingdom of Wisteria, and cannot be moved, we need to go there with the three other treasures.

"This means that you will need to bring Princess Ariel with you, so that the ritual to unseal the Stone of Destiny will become possible."

"Yes," Chloe replied. "As long as she brings the Cauldron of Dagda with her, that will be enough. Also…"

The young lady's lips curl up into a smile.

"I can tell that she's a very sly, and dangerous woman," Chloe stated. "She will definitely ask for conditions for the cooperation. I'm telling you right now, if she asks you to marry her, you better say no or else…"

All the other young ladies, including Lily, looked at Ethan with the "Don't even think about it" gaze, which made Ethan feel goosebumps even though he and his lovers were thousands of miles away from each other.

"Understood," Ethan replied. "I'll make sure that she will not reach my bottom line."

"Yes, don't let her reach, or touch, your bottom," Samantha said in a serious tone. "That belongs to me, okay?"

Ethan gave Samantha a knowing smile, and nodded in agreement.

The ladies looked at their beloved before shifting their gaze to their sister in confusion.

'Is there some kind of hidden play that we're not aware of?'

That was the thought of everyone in the room. Since they didn't want to raise a fuss when Ethan was still with them, they decided to ask Samantha later, and make her spill the beans by hook or by crook!

"All of you take care of yourselves," Ethan said. "I love you all."

"We love you, too," Lily replied before hesitating to say something to Ethan.

Of course, Ethan saw this slight hesitation from Lily's face, so he decided to ask what was on her mind.

"Is there something you want to tell me, Lily?" Ethan inquired.

As if waiting for this moment, all the ladies in the room looked at Ethan's wife with bated breath.

Even Joanne, who almost spoke out her thoughts earlier, was looking at Lily with excitement.

"There's a surprise waiting for you when you return," Lily replied after careful consideration. "So, make sure to come to take care of yourself. We will be waiting for your safe return. Also, bring Illumina with you."

For a brief moment, a competitive expression flashed across Lily's face that only lasted for a second.

"Don't worry." Ethan smiled. "She will accompany me back. Illumina is also looking forward to seeing all of you."

A few minutes later, Ethan bid his goodbye, and cut off the connection with the magical artifact.

A sigh of relief escaped everyone's lips, as if they were holding their breaths throughout their entire conversation with Ethan.

"I really thought that you're going to tell him the news." Lilian chuckled. "I was looking forward to seeing how he would react."

"I feel the same," Luna commented, a slight tinge of envy in her voice.

Selene, who was seated on Luna's lap, closed her eyes happily as her Master petted her soft fur, not knowing what the young lady was thinking.

"Now is not the time," Lily replied. "I just hope that he will return before my trip back to Southshire. Knowing my mother and father, they will definitely send people to take care of me after they read my letter.

"For now, it is still not a problem. But the moment my stomach starts showing signs of pregnancy, I will leave the academy, so that rumors will not start to spread. I don't want to be a bad role model for everyone."

"Right," Emma commented. "After all, despite the fact that you're already married to Ethan, you still have a sizable fan club. The moment they realize that their idol is pregnant, they might fall into depression."

Everyone inside the room giggled because this was indeed a possibility.

Chloe, who had a faint smile on her face, carefully stored the crystal ball inside a magic pouch.

She was the one responsible for returning the magical artifact to the Headmaster, and would personally thank him for accepting Ethan's request.

Now that they knew that their beloved was safe, and had reunited with Illumina, they didn't have to worry about him, at least for the time being.

Joanne and Ramona headed back to Ramona's room.

Since the two of them often slept together, Joanne had moved some of her clothes to her best friend's room, so that she could sleep over anytime.

"That was really close earlier, Joanne," Princess Ramona said with a smile. "If you really told your brother that Lily is pregnant, he might have traveled back to the academy in the fastest way possible."

"Right." Joanne sighed. "Fortunately, you managed to stop me in time. I wouldn't have the face to show myself in front of Lily if I spoiled her surprise."

Suddenly, Princess Ramona's body shuddered as if she was electrified. A moment later, she glanced at the direction where she sensed a powerful fluctuation of power.

However, when she tried to extend her senses in that direction, the feeling that she got was nowhere to be found.

'Am I just imagining things?' Princess Ramona thought.

The young lady then shook her head helplessly because she might have just overreacted to something.

Meanwhile, inside the Eques Manor…

The sound of someone coughing spread inside the room.

Nicole was crouching on the floor, as the coughing fit wracked her body.

Right below her, were shards of ice.

However they were no ordinary shards of ice.

They were red shards of ice, and they were all covered with a tinge of blood.

"Why are you in a rush?" The Progenitor of Magic, Lady Hecate asked the young lady, who had just ended her coughing fit. "The more you rush, the shorter that girl's lifespan will be. Are you sure that is the outcome that you want to happen?"

"It doesn't matter," Nicole replied before wiping the frozen blood at the corner of her lips. "Even you understand that time waits for no one."

"True." Lady Hecate nodded. "But, is it worth it?"

Nicole didn't reply.

Whether the price was worth it or not, even she, and the Progenitor of Magic, was unable to tell at this point in time.
