Chapter 327 Legacy Vs. Legacy [Part 4]

“Damn, is this really a duel between a Wizard and a Dud?” Clara couldn\'t help but rant after she regained her sight and vision. “My ears are still ringing.”

Lilian, who was seated beside her, had a pale expression on her face. Although they were protected from the brunt of the shock waves, the magical residue in the surroundings made her feel nauseous.

She wasn’t the only one feeling this way.

Several students were also affected by the overload of magical power in their surroundings, causing them to feel dizzy and making their skin tingle.

The students who had suffered from ruptured eardrums earlier were also in bad shape, and a handful of them even fainted.

Professor Galena and the members of Terra Manor, who were part of the Medical Team of the infirmary, immediately went to assist those who were worst hit by the aftershocks of the clash between Lux and Cedric.

Professor Rinehart also offered his assistance to Professor Galena, while Professor Barret teleported beside Ethan, who was kneeling on the arena, with several bruises on his body.

Blood seeped from the corner of his lips, and his face was very pale. However, after a quick diagnosis, Professor Barret didn’t sense any life-threatening injuries, making him sigh in relief.

Suddenly, a beam of light descended from the sky and landed on the arena.

Cedric, who had a disheveled appearance, was on all fours, coughing heavily.

The wings behind his back shattered into countless light particles, which then dispersed completely.

Blood was flowing out of his nose, and his face was as pale as a candle.

Professor Barret hurriedly rushed to his side and checked his condition. A moment later, he took out a potion from his storage ring and gave it to Cedric.

“Drink this,” Professor Barret ordered.

Cedric didn’t hesitate and began to drink the potion that was handed to him. His head hurt terribly, a bit worse than the rest of his body.

Because he was in the air, he didn’t have any foothold that allowed him to brace against the impact of the shock wave.

So, when the aftermath of the clash between the two powerful spells reached him, he was blown away helplessly.

Ethan fared a bit better since he was far away from the point of impact. Although the shock waves did hit him, the body enhanced by the power of the Tide Bringer was robust enough to endure the impact.

So, between him and Cedric, the one who got injured more was the latter.

Professor Barret sighed in relief when he saw that color was starting to return to Cedric’s face.

He then raised his hand and declared that the duel ended in a draw, cueing Lilian, Clara, and some of the Medical Team to enter the arena to check on the conditions of both duelists.

Two hours later…

“I guess we have no choice but to suspend all classes for three days and allow the students to recover,” Professor Rinehart said after getting Professor Galena’s report.

All the students present were shaken from the battle, and they would need some time to recover.

There was even a large number of students who had ruptured their eardrums, with some fainting at the scene, so the Headmaster had no choice but to make this decision.

Cedric was also in the infirmary and receiving special medical attention from Professor Galena. He had suffered a minor fracture in his skull, but thanks to her homemade elixirs, his injury was treated properly.

However, to ensure that there would be no complications, she asked that Cedric remain in the infirmary for three days so that she could monitor his condition.

Lilian and Clara didn’t reject the Professor’s proposal because they were worried about his condition.

“Now I understand why Ethan is able to use Magic despite being a Dud,” Professor Njal pinched the bridge of his nose. “He acquired a Legacy. What a lucky boy he is.”

The Professors inside the Conference Room all nodded their heads in agreement.

A Legacy was not something one could get simply by wanting it. Some were born with it, while some were able to acquire it during a fortuitous encounter.

Professor Rinehart and Professor Barret both had Legacies of their own, making them extremely powerful Wizards.

But between the two, Professor Rinehart was stronger because he had something that Professor Barret didn’t have, and that was Resonance.

If someone had a Legacy and could also use Resonance, that person was bound to become an Apex Powerhouse of the world.

This was what made Professor Rinehart a very influential person in the Wizarding World.

If he fought seriously, dozens of Wizards and Witches would have to work together in order to get a chance to defeat him.

He was simply that powerful.

There was a saying that only a Legacy could fight against another Legacy in a one-on-one battle.

Now that everyone was certain that Ethan indeed had a Legacy and could also use Partial Resonance, influential and powerful people were bound to take notice of his existence.

‘Fortunately, he has an Ancient Wendigo as a bodyguard,’ Professor Barret wiped the sweat on his forehead with his handkerchief.

He and Professor Rinehart exchanged a knowing glance with each other before the Headmaster of the Academy ordered everyone to rest.

The two needed to talk about something important, and they didn\'t want anyone to overhear their conversation

————————

Dud Manor…

“Seriously, I’m fine,” Ethan said as he laid on the bed. “I just need some rest. I already drank one of Professor Galena’s healing potions.”

Chloe, who was seated beside the bed and holding his hand, sighed before nodding her head.

“If you say so.” Chloe gave his hand a gentle squeeze.

She couldn’t stop her gaze from staring at the rest of Ethan’s topless body. Admittedly, it was an amazing sight, one that she didn’t see often.

If possible, she wanted to touch it, but she held back because she was worried that Ethan might have suffered some internal injuries.

Earlier, Emma had beaten her in applying a healing salve on Ethan’s bruises. Because of this, she didn’t have a valid reason to touch Ethan’s body without looking like a pervert.

So, she settled with simply holding his hand and making sure that he was really fine.

Chloe and Lily were seated on the bed, while Emma stood close to it. All of them were looking at Ethan with worry, making his heart feel warm.

“Do you have any news about Cedric?” Ethan asked. “He didn’t look good when I saw him earlier.”

“You don’t have to worry about him, Ethan,” Emma replied. “He’s being monitored by Professor Galena. He should be fine in a day or two.”

Ethan nodded. “Good.”

The young man then closed his eyes to rest. He felt extremely lethargic after activating the Third Stage of Legacy.

Fortunately, he didn’t have to forcefully activate his Domain. Had he done that, he might have lost consciousness due to the fact that he didn’t possess any magic reserves.

He had used the power of the storm to fuel his Grand Aria.

Because of this, he didn’t receive an extreme backlash, though it was unavoidable that he’d feel drained.

Now that he understood why Sebastian insisted that he didn’t use magic in the duel, he had a better understanding of the power he possessed.

Sebastian and Ethan’s Other Half, who were in his Sea of Consciousness, fist-bumped each other, for they were certain that Ethan now had a better understanding of the might of his Legacy even when he wasn’t fighting anywhere near the sea.

A place where he had an overwhelming advantage over his foes, who were unlucky enough to face him on his home turf, where he could wield his power to its peak potential.
