Wizard World Irregular

Chapter 871: Someone Reliable Is Coming With Us As Well



"Well, then. What do we have here?" the lady said in an amused tone, watching Samantha as she tried to struggle and break free from her chains.

"A Witch with different colored eyes... You're the first Witch I've captured with such a

feature," the lady said, not minding the futile struggle of the newest Witch in her collection.

Perhaps liking her defiance, the Witch used her finger to lightly squeeze the tip of Samantha's breast, enjoying her reaction.

"Don't worry, Sweetheart. I'll have fun with you too," the lady said before taking a potion out from her robe. "Bottoms up."

The lady then drank the potion, but she didn't swallow it. Instead, she moved close to Samantha and pressed her lips over her own, making the young lady's eyes widen in shock. Something sweet entered Samantha's lips, and she was unable to do anything but accept it. Her throat moved as the potion entered her body until no drop was left.

When everything was done, the lady pulled back, licking her lips in satisfaction.

She then pressed her hand on Samantha's chest, feeling her beating heart.

Suddenly, Samantha's body heated up, and she could feel her magic power gathering at the place where the lady had pressed her hand.

A minute later, the lady pulled back her hand, smiling sweetly as she looked at the small green gem the size of a small bead that grew out of Samantha's chest.

"Nature magic. Now that's something that I have in low supply," the lady smiled sweetly. "Well, then. I'll be back in a few days when your Origin Magic has ripened. I'm very sure that it will taste as sweet as you, sweetheart."

Samantha hung limply on the wall and looked at the lady in front of her in a daze.

Soon, her eyes slowly closed, feeling her power fade away from her.

But just as her world was covered in darkness, the image of a young man with long blue hair and blue eyes appeared in her mind.

'Save... me.'

After saying those words inside her head, Samantha fainted.

Meanwhile, somewhere in Grandshire...

Ethan gazed toward the Southwest because he thought that he heard someone call his name.

Their Flying Ship had already arrived at their destination and was scouring the area for any suspicious activities.

'Did you guys hear something?' Ethan asked.

'No,' Sebastian replied.

'I didn't hear anything,' Ethan's Other Half commented.

Ethan frowned, but since Sebastian and his Other Half didn't hear anything, he thought that he was merely imagining things.

But he was unable to push the nagging feeling inside his head away.

Suddenly, an idea popped inside his head, making his eyes widen in shock.

He didn't know if what he was thinking would work or not, but he believed that it was worth trying.

Ethan summoned the compass that Lyle had given him as part of their bet several months ago. It was the compass that belonged to the Founder of the Schwartz Manor. Agmundr Schwartz. No one knew why Agmundr Schwartz created such an artifact. After all, its use wasn't very practical.

The compass pointed to the place that its owner feared the most.

Right now, one of Ethan's fears was Samantha's safety, so he decided to give it a try.

The compass needle started to spin for a few seconds before pointing in the Southwest direction.

It was the same direction where he felt that strange feeling that assaulted him out of nowhere, which made him frown.

"Ethan, is something wrong?" Emma, who noticed the change in her Master's expression, asked.

"How long until we finish searching the area assigned to us?" Ethan asked, still looking in the direction where the compass was pointing.

"Half a day," Emma replied. "There are two small towns and a village in the area, and we won't be able to leave until we finish investigating them all."

"Half a day...” Ethan muttered before making a decision. "Lilian, Cedric, let's talk for a minute. There's something I need to check no matter what."

"What do you mean?" Cedric asked. "You plan to investigate somewhere else?"

"Yes," Ethan replied. "Can I leave Lilian in your care? I'll be taking Emma with me."

Cedric frowned, knowing that this was breaking protocol. However, seeing how serious Ethan's gaze was, he instinctively knew that there was a reason behind his request.

"Fine." Cedric nodded. "I'll handle the investigation with Lilian."

"Thank you," Ethan replied before shifting his gaze to his lover, who looked back at him with worry. "Where are you going?"

"I just have this feeling I can't describe," Ethan answered. "And it's pointing me in a certain direction. I need to go no matter what. I'll leave Lilith to protect you."

Lilith, who was suddenly delegated to be Lilian's protector, wanted to protest, but she held it

in.

She knew just how much Ethan cared for all of them, so leaving her with Lilian meant that he was worried that something might happen to her while he was away.

'I guess I have no choice,' Lilith thought as she resigned herself to her new role. 'If Lilian also went missing, I'm sure Ethan will be worried sick.'

Naturally, Lilian was touched by this gesture because she understood the significance of Ethan's words.

"Be careful, and come back safely," Liliann said before hugging Ethan. "But will you and Emma be enough on your own?"

"It's not just the two of us who are going," Ethan replied. "Someone reliable is coming with us as well."

Perched on the sails of Ethans' flying ship was a White Raven, whom Ethan named Dantalion.

The young man now understood that his Spirit Guide wasn't a simple existence, so he decided to ask him to accompany them on their journey.

While he didn't know how strong Dantalion was, his Other Half insisted that the White Raven might even be stronger than the Ancient Wendigo, Dainsleif.

Because of this, Ethan decided to take him on their journey. Having one more reliable ally could help change the outcome of this investigation in their favor.

After telling Merric that he should follow Cedric's orders as if they were his own, Ethan, Emma, and Dantalion flew toward the Southwest, following the compass that led to the place that Ethan feared the most.
