Wizard World Irregular

Chapter 139 Guardian Of Brynhildr Academy

The Wendigo’s eyes glowed like fiery embers as it gazed at the Headmaster of Brynhildr Academy for a short while before shifting its attention to the wizard beside him.

A few seconds later, it glanced at Koko, Broodmother, Ophelia, and finally, on the angelic beauty, Luna, whom it had chosen as prey.

If it had been confident that it could push the young lady to the brink of despair earlier, now, it knew that it was no longer possible.

Since that was the case, the Wendigo decided to do the only option it was left with, and that was to escape!

The monster’s body turned into a blur as it increased its speed to escape the encirclement that had trapped it in its center.

Professor Rinehart sneered when he saw this and quickly pointed his wand at the fleeting Monster.

“I already told you—don't think that you can escape.”

A flash of brilliant light that illuminated the surroundings hit the fleeting monster’s leg, obliterating it completely. It didn’t matter how fast its movements were. For Professor Rinehart, no one would be able to escape the moment he unleashed his domain.

The Wendigo screamed in pain before falling head first on the ground.

Before it could even stand up, three more rays of intense light hit its body, targeting its remaining leg and arms.

Just as the Monster willed itself to regenerate the parts that were destroyed, four silver chains descended from the sky and wrapped itself on the Wendigo’s body.

These silver chains not only locked its target in place, but it also suppressed any form of healing and regeneration.

Seeing that its body wasn’t recovering, it then attempted to turn into a black mist in order to escape its binding. However, contrary to what it expected, the binding remained in place, preventing the monster from escaping.

“Brynhidr, lock up this fiend,” Professor Rinehart ordered.

The Statue of the Valkyrie located at the highest tower of the Academy slowly opened its eyes.

Its marble body glowed faintly before transforming into a beam of light that flew towards the Great Eagle Forest.

When the light plunged into the clearing, a beautiful woman with angelic wings stood regal and proud.

She held a spear in one hand and a shield on the other. Her long blonde hair fluttered faintly in the breeze as her crimson eyes locked onto the Wendigo’s body, which made the evil abomination shudder.

The Valkyrie, who was also the Guardian of Brynhildr Academy, moved her shield until the Wendigo’s reflection appeared on its surface.

“Magnus Carcer.”

Her voice, which was as beautiful as her exterior, reached everyone’s ears, making Ethan momentarily forget the pain he was feeling.

Then it happened.

A black orb appeared in front of the shield, and a powerful sucking force pulled the struggling Wendigo inside of it.

The creature screamed and did its best to escape from its jailer, but no matter what it did, his attempts were futile.

In the end, it was sucked up inside the Valkyrie’s shield, never to be seen again.

At least, for the time being.

With her duty accomplished, the Valkyrie flapped her wings and flew toward the sky before turning into a beam of light. It once again returned to the highest tower of the academy, her pose freezing and her body turning into stone.

A strange calm descended into the clearing as Professor Rinehart removed the white barrier in the surroundings.

Koko and Broodmother glanced at each other before leaving the clearing and returning to their respective territories.

Now that their greatest threat was gone, the two Overlords would no longer have to worry about the Flesh Eater of the Great Eagle Forest ever again.

“You two have a lot of explaining to do,” Professor Barret said with a smile. “I believe we have a curfew, right? What are you two doing here in the Great Eagle Forest? Don’t tell me you’re here to take a stroll?”

“Barret, stop teasing the children,” Professor Rinehart said as he landed on the ground. “You and I know that both of them are not at fault.”

Professor Barret smiled and no longer teased the two teenagers, who barely escaped one of the vilest magical creatures that lived within the forest that bordered Brynhildr Academy.

Knowing that they were already safe from harm, Ethan sighed in relief.

A second later, he lost consciousness.

Due to the rush of adrenaline earlier, he wasn’t aware that his magical energy had already dipped to dangerous levels. The injuries that the Wendigo had given him didn’t help either, making him extremely weak.

Seeing his condition, Professor Ophelia waved her wand, and made his body float.

“Let’s take him back to the Academy,” Professor Ophelia said to Luna, who was looking at the teenage boy with worry in her eyes. “I’m sure that Professor Galena will patch him up until he becomes good as new.”

Luna nodded as a reply and sat on Professor Ophelia’s flying broom, which took both of them back to the academy.

Professor Rinehart and Professor Barret, who remained in the clearing, glanced in the direction of the Sea God’s Trident that was embedded on the ground.

“What is this thing?” Professor Barret asked as he casually walked towards the Trident. “I’ve never seen anything like this in the academy before.”

The Former Magistratus gripped the Trident’s handle in order to take it off from the ground.

However, it didn’t budge.

“Interesting.” Professor Barret smiled as he took out a monocle to appraise the Trident to know its origin. “Strange. I don’t see any information about this weapon whatsoever. Just where did that boy pick this thing?”

The Headmaster smiled as he walked toward the Trident that was embedded on the ground.

“Perhaps this is a Lost Relic,” Professor Rinehart said. “You know. Those things that came from the Age of Myths.”

“Nice one, Rinehart.” Professor Barret smirked. “Do you think Lost Relics are like four-leaf clovers that you can randomly find with just a bit of luck? But how do we take this back to the academy?”

“We don’t,” Professor Rinehart replied, his eyes twinkling in amusement. “If this is what I think it is, it will return to Ethan’s side the moment he regains consciousness. It is best that we leave it here.”

Professor Barret nodded, but still decided to appraise the weapon using his magical monocle. After two minutes without getting any result, the ex-Magistratus sighed before reluctantly leaving the clearing along with Professor Rinehart.

When the two Wizards were no longer around, the Sea God’s Trident returned to its original form before disappearing completely.

Only its Master could wield it, and it would not allow anyone to pull it out of the ground unless that person was someone that its Master trusted completely.
