Wizard World Irregular

The Forbidden Section of the Library was in a separate room in the library, which was protected by countless magical formations.

Entering it was near impossible unless the person entering had received a token from the Headmaster himself.Nᴇw chapters are publɪshed on ɴovel(ꜰ)ɪre.nᴇt

Because of this, even though Luna and Lilian screamed loudly, their voices didn’t reach the other sections of the Library, so they did not disturb the students that were reading there.

The boy laughed after hearing the two ladies scream, making Ethan frown.

“Relax,” the boy said as his entire body moved out of the bookshelf. “I mean all of you no harm. I was just curious about you guys since it has been a while since I have seen someone enter the forbidden section of the library.”

The boy, whom Ethan believed was around six to eight years old, placed his hands on his waist and eyed his visitors.

The most unique thing about him was that his body was nearly transparent, making Ethan think he was skind of spirit or a ghost.

Since he had already seen the Will of Fortis Dud, as well as the Will of the Sword of Light, he was thinking that maybe this boy was also a Will that was left behind by his original body.

“Letintroduce myself first,” the boy said as he made a bow like a gentleman. “My nis Eileifr Eques. Since my nis a mouthful, feel free to callby my nickname, Lyle.”

The boy named Lyle, had short hair, and a chubby figure, which made him look adorable.

But, since his body looked pale like a ghost, it was impossible to tell his hair and eye color.

“Eileifr Eques?” Nicole eyed the chubby boy with great curiosity. “Are you The Eileifr Eques, who founded the Eques Manor?”

“Yeah, that’s me.” Lyle nodded. “But, just callLyle. That is what my friends call me.”

The chubby boy then floated towards Ethan’s group, and sat cross legged on top of their table.

“I saw your battle earlier, Nicole,” Lyle said as she eyed the magic knight with great interest. “Truth be told, I am looking for a successor. However, I still couldn’t decide between you and Alice.

“The two of you are promising Witches, and both of you are worthy to obtain the treasures that I have left behind. However, I can only choose one of you, which leavesin a dilemma.”

Ethan, who had an idea about what Lyle was talking about, couldn’t help but think of the golden egg that he received from Fortis Dud.

After sucking his magic powers for several hours, the egg was finally satisfied so it entered Morgan’s Ring on his finger on its own.

Since then, it would pop out from tto time, usually at night to leech his magical powers, while he was sleeping.

As if knowing what he was thinking, the chubby boy winked at Ethan and placed a hand over his lips.

Ethan nodded in understanding, which made Lyle give him a thumbs up.

“It would have been easier forto choose one of you, if the Professors hadn’t stopped your battle earlier.” Lyle sighed. “It is quite unfortunate. Especially since the good part was about to start.”

The chubby boy then rested his chin over his intertwined hands as he looked at Nicole with a solemn look on his face.

“Tell me, Nicole, do you want to becmy successor?” Lyle asked.

“Am I worthy?” Nicole asked back in all seriousness.

Eileifr Eques, the Founder of the Eques Manor was the greatest Magical Knight during the Era of Demon Lord Balthazar.

His mastership over his sword, and magic, was second to none, making him one of the strongest Wizards of his generation.

Looking at the current Lyle, no one would think that the chubby boy would grow up to becsuch an expert, who had left his mark on the pages of history.

“Yes, you are worthy.” Lyle nodded firmly. “You and Alice are both worthy. But, there can only be one.”

“You said that your successor will receive your treasures, right?” Nicole inquired. “What kind of treasures did you leave behind?”

“Make a guess,” Lyle replied with a smirk.

“Swords and Shields?”

“I knew you’d say that. But, no. My treasures aren’t magical weapons or shields. It’s something else. I’ll give you two more guesses. If you guess one of them, I’ll give it to you. If not, then I’ll go find Alice and make her guess as well.

“If neither of you are able to guess my treasures then the two of you will have to fight another duel. This time, you have to see it through to the end. The one who wins will obtain my treasures.”

Lyle smirked because he found this idea to his liking. If Nicole really managed to guess one of his treasures, he would give it to her and just think of it as Fate.

Although only one was supposed to obtain his treasure, he thought that it wouldn’t be bad to split it between two exceptional Witches, who had gained his recognition.

“What do you think, Ethan?” Nicole asked. “Can you make a guess?”

Ethan shook his head. “I think it will be best if you don’t ask for outside help on this one. If I guessed correctly, Lyle here might not give it to you because he would think that you didn’t earn it.”

“Exactly!” the chubby boy pointed at the handsyoung man and gave him another thumbs up. “It’s a good thing that you understand. As expected of the person chosen by Fortis… Oops my bad!”

Lyle scratched his head, and yet there was a mischievous smile on his face.

This was the perfect example of the phrase “sorry, not sorry”, which made Ethan smile wryly.

“Now, let’s go back to the subject,” Lyle clapped his hands together.

Although he was a spirit, he actually managed to create a clapping sound, which broke Nicole out of her daze.

“Remember, you only have two opportunities,” Lyle said while raising two of his fingers. “So, make sure to think carefully before you give an answer.”

Given this kind of opportunity, Nicole thought long and hard about what kind of treasures the Greatest Magical Knight in history would have.

Since a sword and shield were not part of the choices, she was leaning on saying that it was armor.

But, her instinct was telling her that the treasures that Lyle possessed weren’t the obvious equipment that belonged to a Magical Knight.

Still, since there was a chance that it was an Armor, Nicole steeled herself and decided to use one of her opportunities to test her theory.

“Armor,” Nicole stated.

“Sorry, no Armor.” Lyle chuckled. “I knew you’d say that. Okay, one last opportunity. Make it count.”

Since she only had one chance remaining, Nicole thought long and hard on what kind of treasures someone like Lyle could have left behind.

A few minutes passed in silence, as everyone waited for her answer.

Luna and Lilian wanted to join the guessing game.

But, since they were not part of the Eques Manor, the chubby boy wouldn’t give them anything.

Finally after ten minutes, Nicole took a deep breath and gave her answer to Lyle.

“A Mount,” Nicole said, earning another chuckle from Lyle.

“Good.” Lyle nodded. “You guessed right. It is indeed a mount. But, do you have any idea what kind of Mount it is?”

Nicole shook her head, which made Lyle’s smile widen.

“Pick a color, Nicole,” Lyle ordered. “Any color.”

Nicole’s eyes widened in shock because if her guess was right, the color she would pick would decide what kind of Mount she would be having.

There were a few magical creatures, who used colors to define their identity.

But, among them all, there was one race that stood at the apex of the world, and it was none other than Dragons.

Nicole didn’t know if Lyle was just messing with her or not, but if what she thought was true then she needed to carefully think about what color she was going to say.

Not all Dragons were equal, and she would like to pick a Dragon that would perfectly match her elements, further boosting her effectiveness in battle.
