Chapter 312 Secret Midnight Meeting [Part 3]

When the flames finally subsided, a four-meter tall creature emerged from what remained of its old self.

Its blue, reindeer-like horns looked like they were made of crystals.

Its eyes burned with a bluish hue as if it was holding back the chilling evil that permeated its entire being.

Unlike its horns and eyes, its entire body was darker than black.

Ethan was certain that on moonless and cloudy nights, the only thing that people would see from it would be its horns and eyes, peering at them from the darkness, making their worst nightmares come to life.

Ethan’s eye color slowly turned to purple as he gazed indifferently at the vile creature that could make even a Magistratus fear for his life.

“Kneel.”

Ethan’s Other Half ordered.

The creature tried to resist at first, but its Master wasn’t the patient type.

With a single thought, an excruciating and soul-searing pain washed over the Ancient Wendigo’s senses, making it scream in pain.

If not for the fact that Professor Barret had erected soundproofing spells all around them, the Ancient Wendigo’s ear-piercing scream would have woken everyone in the academy, alarming all of them.

The corner of Ethan’s lips curled up into a sneer as he looked at the Monster in disdain.

Since he was the one who had given the Ancient Wendigo its true name, he could kill the creature anytime he wanted to.

But, where was the fun in that?

Since such a good tool was now in his possession, it was only natural to use it to serve its rightful purpose.

And what is that purpose?

To destroy and devour anything that stood in his way.

In the end, the Ancient Wendigo had no choice but to bend its knee for the handsome young man who held its life in the palm of his hands.

Ethan walked toward the monster, whose kneeling form was still taller than him.

But its size didn’t matter.

He then gestured to the monster to lower its head further so that he could whisper something in its ear.

The Ancient Wendigo obeyed, its gaze fearful of the devilish being that was hiding beneath Ethan’s human skin.

“Serve me well, and I will give you your due,” Ethan whispered. “Defy me, and I’ll feed you to a dog whose loyalty will remain till the end of time. Do I make myself clear?”

‘Yes, Master,’ the Ancient Wendigo replied through telepathy.

Ethan smirked and tapped the Monster’s head with the ring on his hand.

Immediately, its body transformed into a fiery blue mist that was sucked up by Morrigan’s Ring until nothing was left of it.

The color of Ethan’s eyes also returned to their normal blue color. Upon suddenly regaining control of his body, the young man nearly staggered.

He felt more drained than usual, for his Other Half used his authority to make the Ancient Wendigo submit to him.

“Ethan, are you alright?” Professor Rinehart walked toward the young man, who was panting for breath.

“I’m fine, Professor,” Ethan replied. “Just a little out of breath.”

Professor Barret, who also walked up to Ethan, had an amused look on his face.

He and the Headmaster of the Academy had felt the sudden shift in Ethan’s presence, which made them wonder what had happened a moment ago.

It was as if he had a dual personality, and his other half had taken over his body to make the Ancient Wendigo submit to him.

The beautiful Valkyrie looked at Ethan with a frown, but she didn’t say anything. Instead, she shifted her attention to Professor Rinehart as if asking him if her duty was done.

“Thank you, Brynhildr,” Professor Rinehart stated. “I will take it from here.”

Brynhildr nodded, and she transformed into an orb of light.

She returned to the top of the tower and once again became a stone statue.

The beautiful Valkyrie was the Guardian of the Academy.

Unless her help was needed, she would remain in her place and wait there until it was time for her to appear once again.

“Ethan, you will need to show the Ancient Wendigo to the delegation of Nightfall Academy,” Professor Barret said. “I already told them that I gave it to you as a reward for helping to save your teammates on your expedition in the Legacy Domain.”

“We reported to the Magic Bureau that we caught the Wendigo terrorizing the Great Eagle Forest months ago. Because of this, my peers are already aware that I am in possession of one.

“I have already talked to Professor Ophelia about this matter, so you don’t have to worry about her. Don’t let the delegation, especially the Magistratus, intimidate you. They can not force you to give the Ancient Wendigo to them.

“They have no jurisdiction over this matter since this was already settled by the Professors of the academy. If they persist, then we can easily report them to the Bureau and ask for compensation from the Council.”

Professor Barret patted Ethan’s shoulder as a form of assurance. “The Headmaster and I will be with you when the delegation arrives. If there are some questions that you can not answer, leave it to us.”

Ethan nodded. “Thank you for everything, Headmaster, Professor Barret. I am very grateful for your help.”

Professor Barret smiled. “There are many people who want to extend their reach into our academy. You don’t have to do anything for now. But, when there comes a time when we will need your assistance, I hope that you will not hesitate to aid Brynhildr Academy in its time of need.”

“I will, of course, do everything in my power to help the academy, Professor,” Ethan replied. “Although I just enrolled here, I feel that this is already my second home.”

Professor Rinehart chuckled after hearing Ethan’s reply. “It’s good that you feel that way, Ethan. Now, it’s getting late, and I’m sure that you want to rest. You can now return to Dud Manor.”

Ethan nodded before summoning his Wind Dancer.

The two Professors looked at Ethan’s “flying broom” with amused expressions on their faces because this was the first time they were seeing such a thing.

They watched as the young man flew through the sky until he disappeared from their sights.

“It seems that he still has secrets that we don’t know about,” Professor Barret said.

“Well, everyone has a secret or two,” Professor Rinehart commented. “Since he doesn’t tell us about it, then there’s no reason to pry.”

Professor Barret knew that his friend was right, so he didn’t say anything more.

Now that things had been settled, they no longer had to worry about the delegation from Nightfall Academy, who were still upset that their golden goose had managed to fly away before they could even catch it.
