Wizard World Irregular

Chapter 794: Reliable Teammates

"I decided to take Hecate with me on the journey to Midgard," Ethan said to Nicole, who had a surprised look on her face. "But if you really wish to come as well, I can ask Professor Rinehart to give you permission to come with me."

Nicole, who was surprised by Ethan's first declaration, became more surprised after hearing his next words.

"You want me to come along as well?" Nicole asked.

"Yes," Ethan answered. "I am going to fight against a Demigod. I need to fight him while armed to the teeth. Having you and Hecate with me will be the best option. I believe both of you can assist me in this battle."

Nicole crossed her arms over her chest and closed her eyes. She had already made her decision to go with Ethan because she had a feeling that his mission would be a very dangerous one.

However, she didn't expect to hear that he would bring Hecate with him as well.

A few minutes later, Nicole nodded and looked at Ethan with a solemn expression on her face. "If that's what it takes for all of us to return safely to the academy, then why not?" Nicole replied. "Three heads are better than one."

Hearing Nicole accept his decision made Ethan finally breathe a little easier.

The two ladies had the power to assist him in his mission, so he decided to play it safe and bring both of them with him.

The only hurdle left was to gain permission from the Headmaster and set a date for their departure.

Just as he expected, Professor Rinehart was surprised to hear that Ethan planned to bring both Nicole and Hecate with him to Midgard.

He could understand why the young man decided to bring Nicole. After all, she was a talented Witch.

However, he didn't expect that Hecate would also be going with him.

But Ethan made sure to explain why he decided to bring Hecate along, especially after seeing the result of the battle that took place inside the Painting of Enlightenment.

After careful consideration, the Headmaster reluctantly agreed, but he had a condition.

"Prioritize your team's survival," Professor Rinehart ordered. "If things get too dangerous, don't hesitate to retreat so that you can fight another day. Remember, you are fighting against a Demigod. They are not foes that are so easy to defeat."

"Professor, have you fought against a Demigod in the past?" Ethan asked out of pure curiosity.

The Headmaster of Brynhildr Academy was hailed as one of the strongest Wizards in the world, so he was curious if Professor Rinehart had faced a Demigod in the past.

"Yes," Professor Rinehart answered. "It was one of the hardest battles I've ever fought in my life. I was only barely able to win because I had already mastered and perfected my Resonance.

"If not, I wouldn't be here to talk to you about it. Fighting Demigods is serious business. You can overestimate them, but you must never underestimate them. Doing that is fatal. This is also the reason why I will approve of Hecate accompanying you. But remember, you need to make sure that she and Nicole will return safely.

"All of you are promising students of the academy. We can't have any of you dying anytime soon now, can't we?"

Ethan nodded. "Yes, Professor. I will do my best to keep everyone safe."

"Good. Do you already have a means of transport? Flying Brooms and riding on a dragon's back are all well and good, but I don't recommend them for a journey to Midgard."

"Enzo has a flying ship, and he has already assigned people to gather supplies for the journey."

"Ah, such an excellent retainer you have there," Professor Rinehart commented. "He is also very good in his cleaning duties... if you know what I mean."

The Headmaster's words were easy enough to discern.

It was not only trash and dirt that Enzo cleaned up in the academy.

Those who tried to break past its walls would find themselves facing the Catkin who was carrying out his agreement with Professor Rinehart in regards to the academy's safety.

After bidding his goodbye to Professor Rinehart, Ethan went back to his room in Dud Manor and began to write letters.

He wrote a letter for his Grandparents, as well as his adoptive father, Wallace.

His Father had stated that if he were to leave the academy or go outside of Eastshire, he must notify him at once.

Since the incident with the Ravens was now over, the Spirit Guides of the Wizards and Witches of the academy had gone back to their usual duties.

Dantalion, who hadn't done anything since the faceoff against the members of the Blood Fangs ended, was more than happy to deliver Ethan's letters.

But on the day before their journey, two people visited the academy.

"Hello, Ethan!" Lyall said as she hugged the young man's right arm. "Missed me?"

"Not really." Ethan replied as he gently pried off Lyall's hands from his arm.

Instead of getting angry, Lyall just chuckled before giving her sister, Lily, a hug.

While this was happening, Conall shook hands with Ethan and told him why they had come to the academy.

"Father was informed about the incident with the Ravens," Conall said. "He thinks that this isn't a simple case, so he sent Lyall and me to investigate it."

"You're right. It's not a simple case," Ethan replied.

The young man then explained the details of his investigation and his current plan of action. "You're going to Midgard with Nicole and another First Year?" Conall frowned. "And you're going to fight against a Demigod? Are you out of your mind?"

"No," Ethan replied. "If I can't defeat him, we will prioritize our safety and retreat."

Lyall, who had heard that Ethan was going to fight against a Demigod, felt extremely excited

for some reason.

"I haven't fought against a Demigod before," Lyall said. "Is he strong?"

"Yes," Ethan replied without batting an eye. "Very strong."

Lyall nodded. "I see. In that case, take me and my brother with you."

"Huh?" Ethan frowned. "Why?"

"Why not?" Lyall asked back. "Since you are now part of the family, isn't it normal for family members to help each other? Or have you forgotten that we are in-laws now? Your problem is

our problem.

"Also, I can't have you dying until I give birth-errr, until Lily gives birth to your baby," Lyall hurriedly corrected herself. "I don't plan on allowing my sister to become a widow, you

know? I'll make sure to keep you alive for her sake."

"Lyall is right," Conall commented. "We are family now. Since you're going to do something

very dangerous, we will come and assist you in this endeavor."

Ethan scratched the back of his head. The gaze that Conall and Lyall were giving him were

gazes saying that they wouldn't take no for an answer.

"Take them with you, Ethan," Lily, who was also worried about her husband, said. "With

them around, I will be able to rest easier at night, knowing that they will be there to keep you

safe."

Hearing his wife's sincere request, Ethan decided that having Conall and Lyall join him wasn't a bad idea.

"Very well." Ethan nodded. "We leave in the morning. Please make the necessary preparations

before then."

Lyall did a fist pump before hugging her sister.

This was the first time that she would be going to Midgard, and among everyone who would

be going, she was the most excited about it.

Ethan could only shake his head helplessly because backup had arrived when he least expected

it.

Even so, he was feeling more confident that their mission was going to succeed because he now had four reliable teammates who would play important roles in his fight against the Vampire Lord, who didn't know that they were coming to knock on his door.
