Chapter 251 Are You Sure You Want To Mess With Me Right Now?
When Ethan opened his eyes, he found himself standing on the peak of a mountain, overlooking a desert.
He gazed at this scenery for a few seconds before shifting his gaze to the young lady, who was standing behind him.
“I don’t think that you being here with me is a coincidence, correct?” Ethan asked in a curious tone.
“That’s right, Master,” Emma affirmed. “Me being here with you isn’t a coincidence.”
Ethan stared at his Promised One with a solemn gaze. Right now, Emma’s usual bored Assistant Librarian look had changed into that of a beautiful seductress.
Her original clothes were gone, replaced by quite revealing clothes that would easily charm anyone who set their gazes on her.
Ethan noticed the mark that was faintly glowing on her chest, which was the proof that she was his Promised One.
The same mark was shining on the back of his right hand, clearly reacting to the emblem of his Promised One.
“Regardless of the time and place, as long as a probability exists, I can appear by your side anytime,” Emma explained. “This is the connection we have through our bond, Master.
“For example, if we were to enter the same Legacy Gate or any Domain, I’ll always have the option to appear by your side instead of being teleported to a random location.
The handsome young man nodded in understanding. He didn’t mind Emma being with him because they were on the same side.
Also, she was a Seer. Having her around would help him navigate the Domain better.
“Can you tell me where Luna is?” Ethan asked.
Emma reluctantly nodded, slightly envious of her Master’s care for his lover.
She already anticipated that Ethan would ask about Luna’s location, but she didn’t think that it would be the first thing that he would ask from her.
But her Master’s order was absolute, and she would obey it without fail.
Emma raised her hand, and a Golden Bowl filled with water appeared in front of her.
This was the same Golden Bowl that Ethan had taken from the Scarlet Citadel, which was the Main Headquarters of the Necromancer he had defeated.
Ethan had gifted Emma this artifact, and the young lady treated it like her precious treasure. It was the first gift that her Master had given her, and it held tremendous value in her eyes.
Soon, an image appeared on the surface of the golden bowl, allowing the handsome young man to see Luna, who was currently riding on a flying broom with Lilian.
‘So she’s with Lilian,’ Ethan thought, feeling slightly relieved.
He knew that the beautiful young lady from Nightfall Academy was now on his side and would in no way betray him.
This was the one thing that he had asked of Lilian before they went into the Legacy Gate.
He made her promise to never betray him and the people important to him. This was the condition he asked of her in exchange for acknowledging her as one of his lovers.
Lilian happily accepted this condition because she had no intentions of betraying Ethan.
It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that the young beauty’s feelings for her future lover were stronger compared to the feelings she had for her Older Brother, Cedric.
Although she would be very reluctant to choose between her family member and Ethan, Lilian would definitely side with the handsome young man because her future was now at stake.
“It will be difficult to meet up with them because they are currently on the other side of this world,” Emma frowned. “I didn’t expect this Domain to be so big. Luna is currently 2,000 miles away from us.”
“What?” Ethan couldn’t believe what he was hearing. “Are you sure about this?”
Emma nodded. “I’m sure of it. If we travel nonstop using a flying broom, it will probably take us three to four days. However, flying without stopping is extremely difficult and exhausting. It's simply unrealistic. Also, there is one more thing that we need to consider…”
The young lady’s expression became serious before she continued her explanation.
“In order to get to her, we need to cross this desert. Unfortunately, there is a restriction placed on it preventing flight,” Emma explained. “So we have no choice but to walk until we reach the edge of the desert, and that will take us several days. That estimate doesn't take into account the strong monsters within this territory that we might need to fight, further increasing our travel time.”
The more Ethan listened to Emma, the deeper his frown was.
If he thought optimistically, he might be able to reunite with Luna after two weeks.
But there was also a possibility that he wouldn’t be able to meet her until the deadline to return ended in a month.
“Master, I suggest that we look for the people who live inside this Domain,” Emma proposed. “We will still head in Luna’s direction, but we will also keep an eye out for villages, towns, and cities. Since this is a Legacy Domain, there is a chance for us to get a fortuitous encounter, allowing us to gain something from this trip.”
Ethan knew that Emma was right. Since they were already inside the Legacy Domain, it would be best to be on the lookout for opportunities that might give them some ancient artifacts or other priceless treasures.
“Are there any of our people near our location?” Ethan asked.
Emma lightly tapped the surface of the water, creating a ripple.
Soon, a pink-haired lady appeared on its surface.
Ethan’s face turned solemn when he saw Nicole.
The young lady was currently fighting against two wizards who belonged to one of the academies that had a grudge against Brynhildr Academy.
Although she was outnumbered, Nicole was able to hold her ground and even counterattack her enemies.
“Where is she?” Ethan asked.
Emma paused for a bit and closed her eyes. A few seconds later she pointed to the North.
“100 miles in that direction,” Emma stated. “Unfortunately, we won't be able to come to her anytime soon.”
The seductive beauty then glanced at her left and right side.
Ethan, who also noticed that they were not the only ones who were teleported on the mountain, sighed.
Five people, composed of three Wizards and two Witches, had surrounded them.
They were all riding on flying brooms, and from the looks of their uniform, they belonged to the academies whom Professor Rinehart had warned them about.
“We just arrived, and you people are already looking for a fight?” Ethan asked. “Are you sure you want to mess with me right now?”
The Wizards and Witches glanced at each other. They weren’t allies, and their academies were also not on friendly terms.
The three Wizards were part of an allied group, while the two Witches were from the same academy.
However, they had a common enemy, and that was Ethan.
“I propose a truce between our academies,” a Witch said as he eyed Ethan with a mischievous smile on her face. “Let’s all eliminate the students of Brynhildr Academy first. After that, we can all go our separate ways, deal?”
The three Wizards smiled and nodded their heads in understanding.
“We have a deal,” one of the Wizards agreed. “You can kill the guy if you want, but we want the witch alive.”
“Men.” One of the Witches sneered because it was very easy to know what the horny dogs were thinking.
However, in the end, she nodded her head.
“Try to not kill him either,” the Witch stated. “You can break his arms and legs, but keep his life. He can still be useful as a stud horse.”
The Wizards smirked because it seemed that all of them wanted to gain some benefit in this temporary alliance.
“Very well,” the Wizard replied before pointing his wand at Ethan. “Try not to die easily, Ethan Gremory. Your fulfilling life as a stud horse is about to begin.”
All the Wizards laughed in disdain as they looked down on the handsome young man, who had already summoned his Sea God’s Trident.
“Emma, can you handle those two Witches?” Ethan asked as he held his weapon firmly in his hands.
“Yes, Master,” Emma replied. “These two b*tches are not my match.”
Emma glared at the two Witches who had wanted to turn her Master into their personal property.
Such provocations were not something that she would turn a blind eye to, especially when topped with the current situation where Ethan’s life and future were at stake.
A strong gust of wind blew on top of the mountain, and a moment later, Ethan and Emma launched their attacks at their respective targets.
