Chapter 904: I Just Hope That She Appears Before It's Too Late
Ethan didn't have the right to enter Jaeger Manor, so he stood by the door, waiting for his wife to come out.
Guests were usually allowed to enter the manor as long as the Head Prefect or the third of the Manor gave him permission to enter their quarters.
But since Ethan was public enemy number one to the boys, the current Head Prefect of Jaeger Manor wouldn't let him in, not wanting a commotion to happen.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
For this reason, Ethan and Lily both agreed that either she would visit him at Dud Manor or he'd just wait outside the Jaeger Manor when he came to visit her.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for Lily to get out, and soon, the two of them were taking a stroll hand in hand.
Since both of them looked good together, many couldn't help but think that they were a match made in heaven.
"Is there something wrong?" Lily asked because she noticed that Ethan looked troubled.
"Yes," Ethan replied. "I had a talk with Baradiel, and she told me that the Progenitor of Magic, Lady Hecate, is a very petty person. She told me that it was highly possible that she targeted my Lovers in order to get back at me because I care for all of you the most."
Ethan didn't mind if Hecate targeted him directly, but if she targeted his Lovers instead, that was another story.
"Have you met a beautiful lady with long red hair and red eyes as of late?" Ethan asked. "Or do you feel anything unusual?"
"A beautiful lady with long red hair and red eyes?" Lily smirked. "Are you talking about my sister, Lyall?"
"I wouldn't be worrying like this if it was just your sister." Ethan sighed before hugging his wife. "I'm being serious here. I'm very worried about all of you."
"Well, I haven't met any lady aside from my sister with the description that you gave me," Lily replied. "As for feeling anything unusual as of late... I think I've gained a little more appetite than usual. Maybe it's because I wasn't able to eat anything good during my mission outside of the academy."
"Having more appetite is a good thing," Ethan replied. "That means you're healthy."
"Mmm." Lily nodded. "So, have you talked to the others about this?"
"Yes," Ethan replied. "At least, everyone that is here in the academy."
Since Chloe was still out on her mission, there was no one else to ask in the academy.
"Do you think that Baradiel is telling you the truth?" Lily inquired. "Maybe she's just trying to make you anxious."
Ethan smiled bitterly. "I'd also prefer that over the possibility of Lady Hecate harming any of you."
treasure of the Tuatha De Danann might be Illumina."
When she first heard it, she didn't want to believe it either.
However, if there was any truth in what the Nymph had told them, it meant that the Cauldron
was in the possession of someone that Ethan knew quite well.
"Illumina?" Ethan frowned. "And it happened four years ago?"
Ethan only became aware of Magic a little more than a year ago. This meant that he still hadn't met Illumina back then and also had no idea that the Wizarding World existed.
The young man sat beside Chloe and held her hand.
The two of them stared at each other for a minute before the young lady broke the silence.
"Do you have a way to contact her?" Chloe inquired.
"She didn't tell me how I could reach out to her," Ethan replied. "But she knows where to find me. So, I believe that she will make an appearance when the time is right."
Another sigh escaped the young lady's lips before she lowered her head.
"I just hope she appears before it's too late," Chloe stated. "There's no telling when the Fomorians will strike. But if the tell-tale signs I saw in my journey are true, then they will be coming soon to settle the debt between themselves and the Firbolgs, who all fled to the Shire
Continent."
Ethan quieted for a bit before summoning the Cauldron of Twilight.
"I was waiting for you to arrive, so you can verify if this is the Cauldron of the Dagda," Ethan said. "It seems that I'm mista-"
Before Ethan could even finish his sentence, Chloe's body glowed faintly, as if it was reacting to the black cauldron in front of her.
A moment later, she collapsed in Ethan's arms, looking very pale.
Ethan, who didn't know what just happened, looked at Chloe in surprise.
But this surprise quickly changed into horror because floating just above the young lady's chest was a shining red Origin Magic Crystal, which drained all the color from the young
man's face.
