Strongest Warlock - Wizard World Irregular

"So your father isn\'t coming?" Ethan inquired.

"I convinced him not to," Lily replied. "He can\'t really leave my Clansmen for a long time either. What\'s wrong? Are you disappointed that he won\'t be coming?"

"Disappointed? More like relieved. Even now, I\'m still not a match against your brother, Conall. Of course, things would be different if we were fighting at sea."

"Well, good luck with that."

Lily could only smirk because the chances of Ethan fighting against her brothers in the sea were very low.

Also, after Conall experienced Ethan\'s Domain, she was sure that her brother wouldn\'t want to fight Ethan in the sea no matter what.

"Oi, can the two of you stop talking and help me with our group assignment?" Chloe complained as she glared at her two teammates, who weren\'t paying attention to their task.

Currently, they were in the Study of Magical Creatures Class, taught by Professor Njal.

The Professor had given all the students a task, and that was to find the Unicorn that was currently hiding inside the Great Eagle Forest.

The Merit Points that could be obtained from catching the creature were a thousand Merit Points for each member of the group, so everyone was taking this matter seriously.

Well, everyone except Ethan and Lily.

"What are you talking about?" Lily arched an eyebrow. "We are taking this seriously. Don\'t you see that we are keeping a good distance away from you? Isn\'t that right, Ethan?"

Ethan nodded. "Chloe, didn\'t Professor Njal tell us that Unicorns usually appear in front of Maidens or pure people? I\'m afraid that Lily and I don\'t fit those requirements, so we are distancing ourselves from you. That way, our group will have a higher chance of making the Unicorn appear."

"This is the perks of being a maiden," Lily said in a teasing tone. "So, please, Miss Maiden, be our bait so that we can lure Mr. Unicorn to our location. I\'m afraid that I am no longer qualified to do that. Ethan already plucked my cherry."

Chloe\'s face immediately became beet red after hearing Lily\'s words.

"I dare you to say that in front of the class," Chloe replied with a flushed face. "Let\'s see how people will react to your pure and innocent image being ruined!"

"I\'d love to do that, but I can\'t. I\'m still young, and I still haven\'t given birth to Ethan\'s child. I don\'t want to be a widow, you know?"

"Tsk!"

Chloe clicked her tongue as she grumpily walked away, leaving the two no-longer-pure people behind.

Ethan could only shake his head helplessly as he glanced at his lover, who was having fun teasing Chloe.

"Why do you like to tease her?" Ethan whispered.

"Because her reaction is very amusing," Lily replied. "Also, is he almost here?"

"Yes. He is now closing in on Chloe."

"Good. Unicorns and their love for purity."

There was a time when they managed to catch a Unicorn in the Lands of Alastor.

However, no matter what, the annoying creature refused to let Lily ride it.

Because of this, they decided to gift the Magical Beast to Princess Ramona, who happily accepted it.

Of course, the bastard didn\'t have a problem in becoming the Princess\' mount, for she was still a maiden.

Since then, Lily had developed a complete dislike for Unicorns, whom she referred to as perverted beasts.

"Heh, he\'s almost here," Lily said in a tone that Ethan could only hear.

The young lady had already transformed her legs into a Demi-Wolf, ready to rush when the Unicorn came within their strike range.

Ethan also took out his wand, ready to bind the creature to give Lily ample chance to capture it.

"Young lady, these woods are dangerous," a White Unicorn appeared in front of Chloe, making the latter stop in her tracks. "Would you like me to help you return to safety?"

"Yes!" Chloe replied in a heartbeat. \'Those Merit Points are mine!\'

Ethan and Lily didn\'t move from their spot because their role was to prevent any students from interfering with their capture.

Since more than fifty students were currently inside The Great Eagle Forest, they were keeping a lookout on those who wished to sabotage their win.

The Unicorn crouched down and allowed Chloe to climb onto its back.

When she was securely in place, the young lady looked at Ethan and Lily with a smug smile on her face.

However, her smugness didn\'t last for long as several spells rained down upon her from all directions, catching her and the Unicorn by surprise.

"Aqua Anguis!" Ethan summoned dozens of Water Snakes that clashed against the spells targeting Chloe, dispersing their effects.

"Glacies Murus!" Lily erected several ice walls to block the spells that Ethan wasn\'t able to hit.

After the first bombardment had started, the Unicorn neighed and teleported a short distance away before running at full speed.

Chloe, who was riding on its back, held on for dear life as the Magical Beast ran across the forest floor, evading spells left and right.

Some of the teams had decided to wait in ambush in order to steal the Unicorn from the other teams.

Because of this, Chloe found herself in the ride of her life as the Unicorn ran, jumped, and teleported to safety.

Lily wasn\'t far behind since she was running at full speed.

Since she was wearing pants, no one was able to see that she had transformed her legs into those of a wolf, giving her superhuman speed.

Ethan, on the other hand, summoned his Wind Dancer and flew above the trees. Since his "flying broom" could move at faster speeds, he was able to catch up to Chloe right away while bombarding the other teams with spells in order to protect his lover from harm.

Fifteen minutes later, the Unicorn broke through the outskirts of the Great Eagle Forest and arrived at the clearing where Professor Njal was waiting.

"Hoh? This is quite unexpected," Professor Njal said when he recognized that the one that the Unicorn had chosen was Chloe.

"Why did you choose her?" Professor Njal asked the Unicorn through telepathy.

"Because she is interesting," the Unicorn replied.

"How is she interesting?"

"Because she is."

The Unicorn crouched down to allow Chloe to dismount from its back.

It then moved closer to look at the young lady directly in the eyes, confirming the suspicion that it had earlier.

\'It is faint, but she indeed has Fey Blood running through her veins,\' the Unicorn thought. \'If this girl can awaken this hidden bloodline, her magical proficiency will grow exponentially.\'

Of course, the Unicorn didn\'t tell Professor Njal this information.

Their race and the Fey lived side by side in harmony, often working together to repel corrupt and evil creatures who trespassed in their domain.

It wasn\'t an exaggeration to call them allies. They shared the same role, which was protector of Nature.

This was why when Professor Njal asked it to participate in this little game that he prepared for the students, the one the Unicorn chose was Chloe. It simply felt closer to her.

The Magical Creature then shifted its gaze to the young man with short blue hair, who promptly landed several meters away from him.

It subconsciously shuddered after feeling the evil being that was currently residing inside Ethan\'s body.

Perhaps, one of the reasons why it chose Chloe was due to this as well.

It wanted to save the young lady with the faint trace of Fey Blood from the Creature, whom it recognized as evil.

"Girl, be careful of that boy," the Unicorn said to Chloe through telepathy. "He is a wolf in sheep\'s clothing. He is hiding something very evil inside his body."

Chloe frowned after hearing the Unicorn\'s words. However, before she could ask it for more details, the Unicorn ran back inside the forest and disappeared from sight.

The young lady watched it go before shifting her gaze to Ethan, who was walking towards her with a smile on his face.

Her best friend, Luna, had already told her that there were times when Ethan\'s personality changed, and she believed that someone had taken over the young man\'s body.

But, she also said that, whoever it was, it didn\'t bear any ill will toward Ethan or her.

The Unicorn\'s warning further confirmed this suspicion. But the part about the creature inside Ethan being evil worried her.

\'Should I talk to him about it?\' Chloe thought as the young man gave her a thumbs up.

The young lady returned the gesture and finally made her decision.

If there was really an evil being inside her lover, then she would do everything in her power to ensure that the man she loved wouldn\'t choose to take the dark path.

A path that might lead to him becoming the enemy of the entire world once the evil being inside his body started to corrupt his heart, body, and soul.
