Chapter 110 A Mystery That She Planned To Solve No Matter What

“The Chesmire Cat is right,” Illumina replied after Ethan talked to her about the problem with using magic that wasn't meant for humans. “This is also why I forbade you to use Resonance while powered up by Fae Magic. Your very frail Magical Circuits would not be able to handle it.”

Ethan’s face sank after hearing Illumina’s words. Right now, he didn’t have any other source of magic aside from Fae Magic, and his duel was going to start the next day.

“The reason why I didn’t tell you about this was because you were so serious about the Clash of the Manors,” Illumina stated. “I didn’t want to dampen your mood because I know how important these duels are for you. But, your body has reached its limit.

“If not for the fact that Chloe had shared her magical powers with you yesterday, I would have stopped you forcefully by making it so you were unable to cast any spells. Even the Fae Magic you possess right now, is the last magic you can use this week.

“If you force it, you may not be able to use magic ever again, just like the warning that I gave you after I banned you from using Partial Resonance.”

Ethan lowered his head as he tried to think of a way to overcome his current situation.

“If I kiss a Witch, and absorb their magical powers, will I be able to use magic tomorrow?” Ethan inquired.

“Yes,” Illumina replied. “I will allow it. But, once this tournament is over, you are forbidden from absorbing any more magical powers from other sources. Don’t abuse your body, and give it time to heal.”

Ethan sighed in his heart, but he still nodded his head.

‘Perhaps I got addicted to using magic,’ Ethan thought.

As someone who had no idea that magic existed before entering Brynhildr Magic Academy, Ethan felt as though he was living in a fantasy world.

It was like a dream.

So, when he was given the opportunity to use magic, he felt as if he was a child that had received a toy for the very first time in his life.

He played with it, and played it with some more.

He never got tired of using it, but eventually, the toy would certainly break down in time after being used multiple times.

That was Ethan’s current state.

His addiction to using magic was slowly taking a toll on him. If not for the Chesmire Cat’s timely advice, and Illumina’s watchful eye, he might have pushed himself to the point of no return.

Losing the very thing that he now held sacred.

“Also, one more thing, Ethan,” Illumina said with a mischievous smile on her beautiful face. “Don’t kiss girls at random. One of these days, you might kiss a girl that might make your life a living hell. I’m serious about this, okay? Chloe and Luna are good girls. They will not harm you, as for the rest… some have hidden agendas so watch out for those.”

“Illumina, what do you think of me?” Ethan asked with a face filled with injustice. “Do you think I’m some kind of Ladies Man? I’m not that kind of guy. Even kissing Chloe took a lot of effort on my part.”

Illumina nodded. “True. You’re not that kind of man. However, there are things that sleep inside us that we don’t know about. Things that only come to the surface when we are not aware of them. For example, some people sleepwalk when they sleep at night. They have no recollection of it, but that doesn’t stop their bodies from moving on their own.”

Ethan blinked once then twice before pondering what the Mermaid Princess meant by things that sleep within.

“As far as I know, I don’t sleepwalk,” Ethan muttered. “At least, Grandma never told me that I do.”

Illumina just smiled and no longer said anything. She and Ethan’s White Raven, Dantalion, shared an intimate, and deep connection with the handsome teenager.

The two of them were also sensitive to magic, and knew secrets that Ethan didn’t know about himself. But, both kept their silence.

They knew that now was not the time to tell Ethan anything. Only once his Magic Circuits had recovered to a certain extent would they tell him about the hidden power that lay dormant within the deepest part of his heart.

After his magical training inside Illumina’s world, Ethan decided to go to the Training Ground of Dud Manor to practice his Martial Art.

Since he didn’t want to kiss any girls at random, the only thing he could do was use his Rising Dragon technique.

He knew that beating Kurt with Martial Arts would be nearly impossible, but he would rather not take the risk, and forever be magically crippled.

To his surprise, Noah was in the Training Ground practicing his Whip Arts.

The two of them glanced at each other and smiled at the same time.

Ethan took out his Moulding Ball and transformed it into a Pitchfork, while Noah took a fighting stance with his whip at the ready.

Without even exchanging words, Ethan charged at his friend, and the latter flicked his wrist, and sent the whip snaking towards the blue-haired boy’s direction like a snake ready to bite.

While this was happening, Nicole found herself being cornered by two ladies with their arms crossed over their chest.

“You were the one that left that mark on Ethan, right?” Chloe stated.

She said it in a way that wasn’t asking a question, but merely stating a fact.

Luna, who was also beside Chloe, looked at the pink-haired beauty with a solemn expression on her face.

“If I said I wasn’t the one who did it, will you believe me?” Nicole inquired with a smile.

“Of course not,” Chloe replied.

Nicole smirked before raising both of her hands in surrender.

“You are right, I was the one that left that kiss mark on Ethan’s neck when I carried him back to his room,” Nicole stated. “He was dead drunk, and I did it just to tease him.”

“Only to tease him?” Luna finally spoke up after hearing Nicole’s reply.

“Yes,” Nicole answered. “Unlike the two of you, I don’t have any romantic feelings for Ethan. Although he is indeed handsome, and is also my type, it is not my nature to snatch other people’s property. Of course, if I were to truly fall in love with him then that’s another story.

“I am the type of girl that will do everything in her power to take what I like. Also, I will definitely not hold back, even if I have rivals. After all, all is fair in love and war, right?”

Nicole smiled sweetly at the two girls, who glared back at her.

“I know you have some kind of agenda in approaching Ethan,” Luna stated. “But, know this. If you ever harm him in any way, we will definitely not stand by and allow you to go scot free.”

“It doesn’t matter if you are stronger than us,” Chloe commented. “I will burn you even if it’s the last thing I do.”

“Oh my, how scary!” Nicole patted her chest in a teasing manner. “Well, if you are really worried about others snatching Ethan’s worm, then you have to eat it before others get an opportunity. Who knows? While the two of you are focused on me, others might already be making their moves on your precious Prince.”

The pink-haired beauty then winked at the two girls before walking towards the library, where she had originally intended to go.

She planned to do some research so too if there were any Wizards in history who were able to use magic, even though they didn’t have Magic Circuits, or if they could use magic with their Magic Circuits destroyed or damaged.

For Nicole, Ethan was a mystery.

A mystery that she planned to solve no matter what.
