Wizard World Irregular

Chapter 1021 New Manor Mates

the once desolate dud manor now had more residents, with the addition of the three mermaid princesses, lyall, conall, narissa, and six of her subordinates.

george and the other original inhabitants of the manor welcomed them with open arms.

as the head prefect of the dud manor, it was his duty to make the new additions to their manor feel welcome.

of course, they still had reservations when it came to the fomorians. however, after meeting the arrogant, yet adorable, golden egg, their worries disappeared.

the golden egg assured everyone that its subordinates wouldn't hurt them, significantly decreasing their anxieties.

they would've felt more secure if only they knew that the fomorians truly didn't dare to hurt anyone as long as ethan was around, for he was someone none of them dared to offend.

it was not just because the golden egg declared him as its partner.

no. ethan was in possession of areadbhair and had inherited the legacy of the slaughterer.

even with a giant gut, the fomorians would never willfully antagonize the bane of their race, no matter the cost.

george, who liked to hold celebrations, decided to host an impromptu welcoming party for their guests.

naturally, no one opposed him, so he brought the guys, including ethan, to the kitchen of the academy, where they could get some food for their party.

the party lasted until late into the night, then everyone returned to their rooms to rest.

ethan told his lovers that he wished to spend the night alone for the time being because he needed to organize his thoughts.

lilith, who was always inside his shadow, didn't take this opportunity to spend some time alone with him and respected his wishes.

as ethan lay on his bed, he thought through everything he had experienced from the time he left the academy to look for illumina up to the time he went to visit the capital of wisteria.

'i can't believe so many things happen in just the span of a few months,' ethan thought.

he accidentally stumbled onto the gateway that led to the city of atlantis amidst his search for illumina.

then he was acknowledged by its guardian, the progenitor, leviathan, because he was a member of the atlantean royal family.

after that, he hurried to find illumina due to the danger that she was facing.

fortunately, ethan arrived just in time to see the mermaid princess fight against king oceanus, who was a colossi.

with the help of the authority granted to him by arariel, he was able to overcome the colossi.

of course, the golden egg also played a significant role in the battle, greatly weakening king oceanus, allowing ethan to deal with him in a more relaxed manner.

the moment king oceanus was defeated, the great plan of the ocean races to wage war against those who lived on land evaporated.

having more would just make their bodies deteriorate, and some were at risk of imploding because their vessel wasn't able to handle so much power.

nicole was a perfect example of that.

baradiel's legacy was incompatible with her, so it slowly ate up her lifespan until she was left with only a few years to live.

ethan didn't have this problem because his body was the perfect vessel for storing up legacies, origin magic crystals, and similar abilities.

he could absorb and bestow these powers to others whom he deemed fit.

'maybe i should give the golden egg a name,' ethan mused. 'should i name him goldy? but what if he was born, and he doesn't turn out to be gold in color? that might be a problem.'

the young man was also thinking about the golden egg, who would occasionally sneak back inside his morrigan's ring during the night and come out during the day to get cozy with its subordinates.

'maybe i should also set a date for the wedding,' etham looked at the two wedding rings on his finger.

the first ring was his wedding ring for lily and him.

he had created rings with similar designs to give to his lovers, which now acted as their engagement rings.

his other ring, which he acquired when he wed illumina, was a relic from atlantis.

they were both magical artifacts, which contained great power when activated, but ethan had no intention of using them for the time being.

the ring from illumina acted similar to a legacy resonance, but it would only activate when he and illumina were together.

'i guess i will need to ask the jewel smith back in southshire to craft me three identical rings.

since he also planned to marry samantha and ramona, he'd give them one too.

as for the last ring?

ethan sighed before closing his eyes to sleep.

the future was uncertain, so he didn't plan to make any assumptions.

however, he hoped that after dealing with all the problems that threatened midgard and the shire continent were solved, the world would finally be at peace so that he could live peacefully with his lovers and build a family with them.
