Chapter 901: You Are The Only Person I Trust In This World
"How are you feeling?" Ethan asked as he sat on the bed. "Does it hurt anywhere?"
"I feel... strange," Nicole replied. "I feel like I'm stripped bare of everything weighing me down, completely naked to the world."
"Well, you are naked."
"Is this the part where I should be laughing?"
Ethan smiled hearing Nicole play along with his attempt to lighten up the mood. The two of them had known each other for a long time, so things like this were just second nature to them.
"Ethan, I've been thinking since yesterday," Nicole said. "Truth be told, I'm feeling a little anxious about my Origin Crystal being stored somewhere. What if there was an accident? Or what if something were to happen that would make others discover it? I can't help but feel very anxious and insecure."
"You don't have to feel that way," Ethan replied. "I will store it inside this ring on my finger. It is the safest place in the world."
Nicole smiled faintly before looking straight into Ethan's eyes.
"While I do believe that you are speaking the truth, I still feel that your ring isn't the safest place to hide my Origin Crystal," Nicole stated. "I believe that the safest place where you can hide it is here."
The young lady raised her hand, and poked at Ethan's chest, particularly on the location of his heart.
"This is the safest place to hide my Origin Crystal," Nicole declared. "There's no safer place than this."
"Do you understand what you're saying?" Ethan asked solemnly. "Are you asking me to absorb your Origin Crystal?"
"Yes," Nicole answered. "I have thought about it really carefully, and I believe that it will serve a better purpose if it becomes your temporary Magic Core. Since you can't produce your own magic unless you absorb the Magic of others through a kiss, having my Origin Crystal inside your Magic Core would kill two birds with one stone.
"Not only will my Origin Core be safe, but you will also be able to use magic anytime, anywhere-just like how it was when you had Samantha's."
Ethan sighed. "Nicole, do you know how I returned Samantha's Magic?"
"I can guess what method you used," Nicole replied. "But it doesn't matter. I don't think I will be able to master my Legacy in a short period of time.
"I'm sure that if you experiment a bit, you will find other ways how to return my Origin Crystal to me without having to do what you did to Samantha."
Ethan frowned, but he couldn't refute Nicole's words.
Right now, he only knew one method because he hadn't tried any other methods of returning the Origin Crystals of people.
If possible, he didn't want to follow the Twilight Witch's methods and harvest Origin Crystals from Witches to make it his own power.
His Other Half even told him that if Witches or any magical creatures were to attack him, he might want to consider extracting their magic crystals from their bodies to use them as his
I wouldn't mind doing it once, it would be none other than you. But, know this-just because
we did it, doesn't mean that I will become your lover. I'm happy with our current relationship,
so keep that in mind."
"You might regret this in the future, you know?" Ethan commented.
"The only regret I will have in this life are the choices that I didn't make." Nicole smiled. "So, please, keep my Origin Magic safe until I get strong enough to tame my Legacy."
A minute of silence passed before Ethan nodded.
He unsummoned the Black Cauldron from the room before reaching out towards the Origin
Crystal on Nicole's chest.
"Ready?" Ethan asked.
"Take it," Nicole replied. "I won't change my mind."
Ethan no longer hesitated and took the Origin Crystal from Nicole's body.
The young lady immediately felt weak as something very important to her had just been taken
away.
She gazed at Ethan for a few seconds before they lost their luster.
Nicole had fallen unconscious with her eyes open.
Ethan looked at his best friend before reaching out to close her eyes with his hand.
'Don't betray her trust, Ethan,' Sebastian said.
'I won't,' Ethan replied before placing Nicole's Origin Crystal inside his mouth.
The moment it touched his tongue, something sweet washed over Ethan's senses as Nicole's Origin Crystal melted and went down the young man's throat.
Suddenly, the world around Ethan changed completely, allowing him to see Nicole's life flash
before his eyes.
He had experienced something similar when he had absorbed Samantha's Origin Crystal, and now, he was seeing everything about his best friend that even she had already forgotten
about.
