Chapter 340 A Battle Worth Fighting For [Part 4]
Rowan had long wanted to beat the crap out of Ethan ever since he discovered that the Dud had become his sister’s boyfriend.
Of course, he had a gut feeling that the boy had more than one lover since he was always surrounded by girls, and having it confirmed made him hate the other party even more.
But, after seeing him save Luna in the Legacy Domain, his hatred for him simmered down a bit.
He gave credit when it was due, and he acknowledged that Ethan did have the qualifications to become his sister’s lover. However, he still needed an outlet to vent his past resentments.
Since there was a perfect opportunity to do it, why not join his family in ganging up on the handsome young man, whose blue eyes now glowed with ferocity as he prepared to unleash his full power?
“Everyone, he’s going all out!” Rowan shouted. “Don’t hold back because this kid packs a punch!”
Philip roared. Blue flames exploded from the tip of his wand, spreading toward the body of his sword whip, and shot in Ethan’s direction like a flaming snake.
With his weapon wrapped around the young man’s trident, Ethan would be burned if he didn’t let go of his weapon.
Erik unleashed countless Wind Blades in Ethan’s direction. He didn’t hold back, having felt that the amount of magical power the young man radiated was reaching a staggering level.
Dennis also gathered his magic power and let loose a five-meter-tall boulder, which flew in Ethan’s direction like a cannon.
Bruce waved his wand around him, and a blazing trail of red flames encircled his entire body.
A moment later, he unleashed his strongest attack which was a giant Fire Serpent, who flew in Ethan’s direction like a blazing train.
Rowan laughed as he summoned several spears made up of Dark Flames and hurled them at the young man, who was at the center of the lake.
The countless Water Dragons clashed against these magical attacks, dispersing them completely.
However, they simply continued to cast more powerful spells, one after the other, destroying the Water Dragons one by one.
It was at this moment that the blue gem on Ethan’s Sea God’s Trident glowed with power, engulfing his body in a tornado made of water.
The entire lake rose up, making the vortex bigger and stronger.
From within its depths, Ethan growled as he activated the Third Stage of his Legacy.
Originally, Sebastian didn’t plan to lend Ethan his power in this battle. However, a new variable appeared, which made the already hard battle extremely difficult.
Since it was unfair for the young man to fight against five opponents at once, the Guardian of Zentris made an exception and allowed Ethan to summon the power of the Sea, turning the entire lake into his domain.
The young man also didn’t want to use the Third Stage of his Legacy, knowing how big a toll it took on his body, but he was left with no choice.
He needed to end the battle as fast as possible. Otherwise, he will lose in a battle of attrition against the five Wizards, who were now taking him seriously.
“Grand Aria!”
As if the entire world was alongside him, the Giant Water Tornado expanded, destroying all the spells that were thrown in the young man’s direction.
“Fly away now!” Philip ordered because he could feel the strong suction force coming from the tornado, which was pulling them toward its center.
The five Wizards tried to fly away, but it was already too late.
From within the water tornado, five gigantic hands made up of water emerged and grabbed the five Wizards out of the air.
“I hope that all of you know how to swim.”
Ethan’s teasing tone sounded in everyone’s ears.
The next thing they knew, the hands that had captured them pulled them toward the center of the tornado, making all of them panic.
Several seconds later, the tornado transformed into a giant fist.
With a roar of anger and defiance, Ethan smashed his fist downward, sending the giant fist toward the lake, making it explode and sending water dozens of meters into the air.
“… You didn’t kill them, right?” Ethan’s Other Half commented as he looked at the lake, whose size and depth had become several times bigger and deeper.
“Of course not.” Sebastian chuckled. “Ethan just gave them a scare.”
Ethan panted for breath as his body slowly landed on the surface of the lake.
The most he did was trap the men from the Oswald Family inside a dome of water.
The attack he unleashed just now was to show them what he could do if he were pushed into a corner.
A moment later, several individuals floated to the surface of the water.
They were soaked from head to foot, but they were mostly unharmed.
They honestly thought that they were goners when they saw that they were about to be slammed to the ground.
Fortunately, the dome of water where they had been held was very sturdy.
They only felt soreness as if they had exercised too much, making them groan in discomfort.
With a flick of his trident, Ethan moved the floating bodies to the shore and dumped them there.
After doing that, he turned extremely lethargic and felt like his body was as heavy as lead.
Illumina held him and carried him to the shore.
There she lightly laid down his body on the grass before transforming into a wand that landed gently over his chest.
“Thank you, Illumina,” Ethan said softly as he rested his hand over the wand, securing it in place.
Although he did his best to stay conscious, he was too drowsy to fight it. In the end, he closed his eyes and lost consciousness.
The men of the Oswald Family looked at the sleeping teenager who was lying dozens of meters away from them.
They still couldn’t believe what they had seen, and all of them, with the exception of Rowan and Philip, shuddered at the thought of being crushed by the giant hands that had grabbed them earlier.
If Ethan really wanted to harm them, he could have easily done that.
But he didn’t.
It made them realize that even though they were ganging up on him, the young man was still able to think rationally and didn’t give them any lasting injuries.
Rowan casually drank a potion from his storage ring, allowing him to recover faster.
Since he didn’t really receive any damage from Ethan’s attack, he only used the potion to remove the soreness from his body.
Just as Rowan was about to stand up to give his family members some potions as well, a flying broom carrying a Witch landed beside Ethan.
It was none other than Emma, who didn’t return to the Oswald Residence.
Ethan’s Promised One simply waited for the battle to end before coming to check her Master’s current condition.
A sigh of relief escaped her lips when she confirmed that her Master was unhurt and was only suffering from Magic Deprivation and Lethargy.
The young lady then waved her wand, making Ethan’s body float in front of her.
“I’ll be going first,” Emma said to Rowan before taking her Master, flying toward the sky with her flying broom.
The Third Year from Brynhildr Academy noticed that Emma wasn’t headed back to their residence.
Although he didn’t know where the young lady was planning to take Ethan, he was certain that they would return sooner or later.
What they didn’t know was that several angry Witches were waiting for them back in the residence, resulting in a nagging that lasted for an hour, making all of their ears nearly bleed.
