Strongest Warlock - Wizard World Irregular

"It's already noon. Is my son-in-law still not awake?" King Betram asked the butler of his Palace.

"The Prince and Princess are still in the Inner Palace," the Butler replied. "Should I send a maid to wake them?"

King Betram pondered for a bit before shaking his head. "No. It will be best that we don't disturb them. Not eating for a day will not pose any problems for the two of them."

"Understood." The Butler bowed respectfully before leaving the room.

King Betram looked at the City of Atlantis in the distance with a faint smile on his face.

"Son-in-law, please do your best," King Betram said softly. "I hope that I can hold my grandkids soon."

Illumina's marriage to Ethan was considered the greatest honor and glory the Royal Family of Saphirus could ever ask for.

What did their marriage signify? It meant that his daughter was now a Princess of Atlantis, and possibly its next Queen.

Ethan had commented that he had already married someone before marrying Illumina. However, King Betram didn't mind it one bit.

Since Ethan's first wife lived on land, there was a chance that she wouldn't be the one to handle the affairs of the Ocean Races.

On the other hand, his daughter was born and raised in the sea and, so, was the perfect candidate to become the Queen of Atlantis.

'But I can't be too complacent,' King Betram thought. 'Princess Ariel is a very cunning woman. She can't be underestimated. As for Princess Wilhelmina… that lady is a very straightforward person. She isn't someone who likes to scheme, so I don't mind if she ends up becoming the Prince's consort.'

Half of the guests were still loitering about in his Kingdom, while the others—like the Naga King—had already returned to their own Kingdoms.

The only ocean folks that remained were ones who wished to form a connection with Ethan. If they couldn't form a connection with him, they would definitely approach King Betram because he was the Prince's Father-in-law.

Of course, King Betram was more than happy to rub shoulders with his fellow Sovereigns. He even wanted to laugh out loud because, as Ethan's Father-in-law, his influence was now spreading far and wide in every corner of the sea.

What did that mean?

It meant that everyone would have to take his words seriously, and he would definitely be invited to several gatherings for socialization.

The King of Saphirus gave the city of Atlantis one last glance before returning to his office.

Although his daughter just got married yesterday, the important matters of his kingdom were something that he couldn't ignore.

Such was the life of a King. In time, Ethan would need to learn how to be a proper statesman and ruler for the sake of his people.

***

Inside the Inner Palace of Atlantis…

Ethan slowly opened his eyes.

Seeing the unfamiliar ceiling above his head a look of confusion appeared on his face.

However, this didn't last long because memories of what happened several hours ago flashed inside his mind.

He then glanced at the beautiful lady that was sleeping beside him with her arms wrapped around his waist, and her head resting on his shoulder.

Seeing that his wife was sleeping soundly, Ethan decided to remain on the bed and look at her peaceful sleeping face.

After recalling what happened the night before, Ethan couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

He was very confident in his stamina. Previously, even after making love with his lovers, he was still able to last until the end.

With the addition of King Oceanus' Legacy, his body had become stronger than ever before.

However, despite how strong Ethan had become, he was shocked by what transpired a few hours ago.

Illumina's stamina was nothing to scoff at, making Ethan realize that his wife, who was hundreds of years older than him, wasn't someone whom he could underestimate in bed. ⱤåŊóʙЁ𐌔

Ethan and Little Ethan worked together to attack the gates in order to conquer the castle.

However, to their surprise, the battle was fierce, and it was only after several hours of skirmishes did he barely manage to win.

Even Little Ethan, who stood tall and proud during the course of the conquest, had to bow his head in the end. Although he won the first nighttime battle, he knew that he might not win the second one.

'I should not let Illumina join the others when we make love,' Ethan thought. 'I will definitely lose if she and Lily work together against me. Heck, even if she worked with Lilian, who can only last for two to three rounds max, I might still be unable to last till the end.'

Still, Ethan had no regrets.

Despite the stormy night that he experienced with Illumina, he had to admit that having a mature lady like her as his wife gave him a different kind of happiness.

Half an hour later, the Mermaid Princess finally stirred, and the first thing she did was look at Ethan with a smile.

"You were amazing last night," Illumina said.

"You're also very amazing," Ethan replied. "Especially when you made love to me in your mermaid form. I can't believe that such a position was possible."

Illumina blushed before lightly thumping Ethan's chest with her fist. The young man chuckled because his wife's adorable act was very ticklish.

If not for the fact that Little Ethan had already waved the white flag, the young man would have definitely used that as an excuse to punish her once more.

"Ethan, you will stay to prevent the Fomorians from reaching Eastshire, right?" Illumina asked.

Ethan nodded. "Yes."

"Will Lord Leviathan help you?" Illumina inquired.

"No," Ethan answered. "Lord Leviathan said that he will not make a move unless a Progenitor is involved. I have to handle this matter myself."

The Mermaid Princess nodded in understanding.

The Progenitors had already taken a back seat in the affairs of Midgard. Although Leviathan disappeared before an agreement between the Progenitors had been finalized, the Lord of the Sea wasn't someone who would make things difficult for others.

"Then, what will you do after you win the battle against the Fomorians?" Illumina asked.

"What else?" Ethan smiled. "I'm taking you with me to Eastshire, so you can meet my Grandparents. But since we are already near Midgard, maybe we should also drop by Caer Wydion so that you can meet my biological parents."

Illumina nodded. "I also want to meet them. Lastly, what do you plan to do with Wilhelmina and Ariel?"

"I intend to take Princess Ariel with me because I will need her help in regard to the Cauldron of the Dagda," Ethan replied. "As for Princess Wilhelmina, I have no thoughts about her. Why do you ask?"

Illumina used her fingers to draw circles on Ethan's chest as if she was thinking about something.

"The conflict between the members of the Ocean Races and the Surface World is due to the lack of communication between the two sides," Illumina stated. "As such, we will need some representatives to form connections with each other and form alliances.

"Both Wilhelmina and Ariel have the qualifications and the rank to make it happen. So, I suggest that you take them to Brynhildr Academy as… What do you call them? Exchange students?"

Ethan blinked once then twice because he thought that he misheard his wife's proposal.

However, after confirming that she did want to take Princess Wilhelmina and Princess Ariel with her to Brynhildr Academy, he figured that the only way for them to stay within its walls was to, indeed, become students of the academy.

"I… I'll talk to Professor Rinehart first," Ethan said after careful consideration. "If he agrees, then we can go with this plan of yours."

Illumina smiled sweetly before planting a kiss on Ethan's cheek.

Although she really didn't like Princess Ariel, she was someone who looked at the bigger picture.

If she wanted to live peacefully with Ethan, then she needed to make sure that his heart would be at peace.

In order to do that, the Land Dwellers and the Ocean Races must work hand in hand in order to take the first steps towards a lifetime of peace.

Unless someone started it, this dream would remain a dream.

Illumina didn't know if she or Lily would become the Queen of Atlantis. Continue reading stories on

In fact, she really didn't care.

But since Ethan was the Prince, he had responsibilities that only he could shoulder.

For the sake of her beloved, Illumina was willing to take a chance.

As to whether her goals would be achieved or not, she would definitely drag the other two Mermaid Princesses along with her if it meant being able to increase the chances of success.
