Wizard World Irregular

Chapter 246 Legacy Of Rivers And Lakes [Part 2]

“Illumina, what is happening?” Ethan asked as he looked at the young lady with concern.

Lilian was currently in a trance, and the magic power was swirling around her body.

Her eyes were glowing with power, and a symbol was glowing on her chest.

Although her clothes were blocking them from seeing it completely, Ethan, Illumina, Sebastian, and his Other Half, could faintly make out what it looked like due to how bright it was.

It looked like a raindrop with two wavy circles under it.

Of course, this was just a guess because they couldn’t get a better view of it due to Lilian’s clothes.

Ethan’s Other Half kept on telling Ethan to unbutton her dress so that they could take a better look, but Ethan stayed his hand and simply waited for things to end.

Half a minute later, Lilian fell down on the bed, unconscious, but the light on her chest remained.

“Illumina, please check it,” Ethan said before turning around to respect Lilian’s privacy. “Sebastian, make sure that my Other Half doesn't take a peek.”

“Leave him to me!” Sebastian replied.

“Tsk, you traitor.” Ethan’s Other Half clicked his tongue in annoyance. “All you need to do is drop your blood at her emblem to make her your loyal slave. That way, she will forever be loyal to you and will never scheme against you. This is for your own good!”

Ethan’s Other Half only wanted what was best for Ethan. However, he still treated everyone, with the exception of Ethan’s women and his family members, as tools that could help him reach greater heights.

Since they had just met Lilian, in his eyes, the beautiful young lady was just an acquaintance at most. She also tried to make things difficult for the handsome young man, so Ethan’s Other Half felt that enslaving her was justified.

Of course, since he also understood Ethan’s character, he understood that the young man wouldn’t do such a thing.

That was why he was feeling very annoyed right now.

In fact, he was so annoyed that he was very tempted to take over Ethan’s body and do the deed himself to seal Lilian’s Fate.

But, in the end, he held back.

Ethan was the rightful owner of their body, and he respected his choice.

But, just because he respected his choice, that didn’t mean that he agreed with his decision.

While Ethan’s Other-Half was seething inside his Sea of Consciousness, Illumina had finished unbuttoning Lilian’s dress.

She then took a good look at the symbol that was shining on the young lady’s chest.

Just like what they had seen earlier, it was indeed a blue Raindrop with two blue circles underneath it.

The Mermaid Princess then pressed her hand over it, making it glow brighter.

“I see…” Illumina muttered. “So that’s what it was.”

After she was done gathering all the information she needed, she buttoned up Lilian’s dress and even helped the girl lay down on the bed properly.

She even took the initiative to take off the young lady’s shoes and place them beside the bed before lightly tapping Ethan’s shoulder to tell him that everything was over.

“The girl has awakened a Legacy in her bloodline,” Illumina said with an excited look on her face. “It is called the Legacy of Rivers and Lakes. Simply put, she had the ability to control any body of water, similar to how you do it.

“But there is a catch. Her specialty lies in her ability to control any body of water inland, while your specialty lies in controlling the Sea. Now that her Legacy has awakened, if you were to fight using water magic inland, she would win hands down.

“The scary part is that if you fought her using magic that you gathered from rivers, lakes, and even a puddle, it wouldn’t have any effect on her. In fact, she would be able to manipulate your own magic against you. That is how powerful her control over water magic on land is.”

Ethan’s Other Half snorted. “See? This is why I told you to enslave her now while she is still unconscious. If you make her your servant, you will be able to use her powers if you are fighting on land.”

Illumina, who could hear Ethan’s Other-Half, smirked. “Well, I have some good news for you. Although I said that if this girl fought against Ethan on land, she would win hands down, I don’t think that she would be willing to do that.”

“And why is that?” Ethan’s Other Half asked.

“Because her Legacy would only activate after a condition has been met,” Illumina smiled sweetly. “Guess what that condition is?”

“Let me guess,” Ethan’s Other Half sneered. “It’s because she recognized Ethan as her partner, right?”

Illumina nodded. “Close enough. The condition that needed to be met in order for her Legacy to activate was to find someone who resonated with her own Legacy and accept that person as someone very important to her, particularly someone she deemed to be her Significant Other.

“Right now, her control over Water Magic has increased by several folds, making her spells more powerful. However, her full potential will not be realized until she and Ethan form a union.

“By doing so, she will be able to unleash her full powers on land, which is a very scary thing. Her symbol is a raindrop, which meant that she can summon rain as well, allowing her to fight almost anywhere without any drawbacks.

“But it doesn't end there. If she were to have a union with Ethan… he would be able to use his full powers on land as well. Meaning that he could command the bodies of water on land as if he were commanding the waters in the sea.

“Similar to Lilian, he would also be able to summon rain. Although he can summon thunderstorms, these storms are limited to the sea.

“To a certain extent, he can also summon storms to the lands near the sea, such as beaches and sea-side towns. But he cannot summon a storm on land, greatly limiting his fighting abilities.

“At the end of the day, the Tide Bringer’s Legacy shines when he is in his Domain, which is the Sea. The farther Ethan is from the sea, the weaker his power is. Now, if he were to form a union with Lilian, all of these disadvantages would disappear, and he would truly become a powerhouse that could move unhindered on land and sea.”

Sebastian, who was completely against enslaving Lilian earlier, was very tempted to side with Ethan’s Other Half at the moment.

Just like his comrade, he only wanted the best for Ethan. If the handsome young man became stronger, he would be able to protect himself from those who wished him harm.

“When you say union, what do you mean by it?” Ethan inquired.

Illumina smirked. “It means that you need to consummate your union, just like married couples do. Have you heard the saying, All Rivers go to the Sea? This means that no matter what happens, the river will always flow towards the sea because this is how nature works.

“Lilian is the river, and you are the Sea. So whether you accept the river or not is your choice. But by rejecting her, you are preventing the natural cycle, which will greatly limit the future growth and prospects for both of you.”

Sebastian chuckled after hearing Illumina’s words.

“Oh, I guess that makes four confirmed wives now,” Sebastian said in a teasing tone. “That’s my boy.”

Ethan’s Other Half nodded. “We’re just in the Second Volume and the number of wives is almost complete. This means that he will be able to strengthen their bonds early. Not bad.”

Just as Ethan was about to rebuke his Other Half, they heard a rustling sound coming from the bed.

Illumina transformed into Ethan’s wand and disappeared from sight, while the two people inside his Sea of Consciousness quieted down.

Lilian then opened her eyes and looked at her surroundings in a daze.

“Sir Ethan?” Lilian asked. “What happened to me?”

Ethan approached Lilian and sat on the side of the bed. “You fainted. Are you feeling better now?”

Lilian was about to nod, but she stopped midway before shaking her head.

“I don’t feel so good,” Lilian replied. “I feel very lethargic, and my chest feels heavy. It’s like, I am suffering from Magic Deprivation.”

The young lady reached out to Ethan as if she was asking for his help in order to stand up.

The moment their hands held each other, a surge of magic power gathered in their hands, allowing Lilian to regain her magic power, which surprised her.

“Sir Ethan… you—” Lilian looked at the handsome young man in surprise. “You really are my Soul Mate!”

Ethan wanted to refute it at first. But after everything that happened, he couldn’t bring himself to do it. He only gazed at Lilian, neither agreeing nor denying her words.

However, the young lady took his silence as his own way of agreeing to her words.

Overcome by emotions, Lilian went to hug Ethan with tears in her eyes.

Ethan, on the other hand, wanted to cry too.

However, the reason for his tears and Lilian’s tears were different.

He had promised Chloe and Luna that he wouldn’t be chasing any lady’s skirts during this trip.

But now, another fiance candidate had appeared, and this person was someone who could potentially help heal his Magic Circuits, as well as unlock his full powers.

Sighing in his heart, Ethan lightly patted Lilian’s head, making the latter close her eyes in happiness.

Her heart was not the only one that was feeling happy that she was this close to Ethan.

Through their skinship, her Origin Magic was rapidly absorbing the magical powers in her surroundings, removing the feeling of exhaustion in her body.

Five minutes later, Lilian had fully recovered, which affirmed her belief that Ethan and she were a match made in Heaven, making her the happiest girl in the world.
