Strongest Warlock - Wizard World Irregular

Chapter 606: I’ll Be Your Wingman

While Nicole was pondering these things, Agnes pulled Ethan to a corner of the living room and asked him a question.

"What's your relationship with Nicole?" Agnes whispered.

"She's my best friend," Ethan replied.

"Only a best friend?"

"Yes."

Agnes glanced back at the beautiful young lady, who was oozing with charisma and confidence.

"Aish~ Don't worry. Leave it to your Grandma," Agnes said. "I'll be your wingman for as long as she is here in our home."

"Grandma, you don't have to do that. Nicole and I are really just close friends."

"Ethan, when you make a bun, you must make sure that the oven is hot enough to cook it. I'll make sure that the oven will be hot enough while you cook the bun, so just leave it to me."

Agnes patted her chest with confidence, making Sebastian laugh from inside Ethan's Sea of Consciousness.

"I like Agnes. She knows her priorities," Sebastian commented.

"Indeed," Ethan's Other Half nodded. "With her holding the fort, Ethan's lineage will definitely thrive and prosper."

Ethan pinched the bridge of his nose. Not only was his Grandma giving him a headache, but the two no-good people in his head were also talking loud enough for him to hear.

Outside of the residence, several ravens landed on a tree branch and observed the house from outside.

Dantalion and the ravens who belonged to the girls had moved out of the academy with the intention of following their Masters wherever they planned to go.

'Good luck, Ethan,' Dantalion thought. 'Not that you'll need it.'

Right beside the White Raven were the other ravens who belonged to the ladies, and all of them were also looking forward to the things that would transpire during their stay in the countryside.

The lunch that Agnes prepared might not compare to the food that was provided by Brynhildr Academy, but it tasted like home, which their guests appreciated very much.

When lunch ended, Agnes took them to the second and third floors of their home, where the bedrooms were located.

Ethan easily found his room on the third floor since there was a sign hanging on the door that had his name on it.

As for the girls, none of them were really picky with the rooms. However, Emma decisively took the room right beside Ethan's room, with the excuse that she needed to be close to him to protect him at all times.

Luna and Lilian exchanged glances with each other before nodding their heads at the same time.

Since the two of them usually sleep with each other, sharing the same room wasn't a problem.

Besides, the beds were king sized and were big enough to hold two adults. Sharing a room wouldn't be a problem.

Lily chose the room beside Luna's and Lilian's room, while Nicole chose the room beside Emma's.

Having picked their rooms, they unanimously decided to raid Ethan's room just for fun.

Ethan didn't mind and entered the room that was made for him for the first time.

The room was quite spacious and was very neat.

The floor was carpeted, and there were two long couches facing each other.

There was also a study table in the corner of the room.

But the one thing that stood out the most was Ethan's bed.

It was very big.

It was as big as two King Sized beds set side by side, making Emma nod her head in satisfaction.

"With this, us sleeping with Master at the same time will not be a problem," Emma commented. "The bed can easily fit five people. Master's libido has been very strong as of late, so having multiple partners is better."

"Right, I noticed this as well." Lily nodded in agreement. "Maybe it's because he has acquired two Legacies that his stamina and body performance have gotten better. I guess we should apply silencing spells in every nook and cranny so that we don't accidentally wake Grandma and Grandpa in the middle of the night."

Luna's and Lilian's faces turned beet red upon hearing Emma and Lily openly talk about something very intimate.

Also, Nicole was with them, making their faces turn a shade redder.

Ethan opened the window and looked outside, pretending that he didn't hear what Lily and Emma were talking about.

After a few minutes, all of them decided to rest in their own rooms for the time being.

Ethan's lovers seemed to have made an unspoken agreement that they would not bother him until nightfall, giving him some time for himself.

Outside the Gremory Residence…

Enzo and the Catkins of the Orpheus Clan were keeping watch of the surroundings, ensuring that no one would disturb their Master's vacation.

Later, they would accompany Ethan back to Midgard, and ensure his safety.

But until then, they would deal with anyone who would try to disturb his precious time with his family.

Enzo made sure to inform Ethan about their presence so that the latter would not be alarmed when he noticed that there were several hidden presences on their property.

Agnes and Benjamin were also aware of Enzo's existence since there were always four Catkins tasked to watch over the two of them.

To ensure that there would be no possibility of friendly fire, the Old Catkin made sure to communicate with them beforehand.

Asta Family Main Residence…

Oscar, as well as the other elders of the Main and Branch Families, gathered in their conference room to discuss the current state of the Heir Wars.

After Vladimir's and Constantine's deaths, the Heir Wars had been postponed indefinitely.

From the beginning, the Heir Wars was simply a competition between the two of them.

Nicole and the other candidates were just there to make it a bit more exciting.

Now that the main candidates were gone, there were voices speaking up that the Heir Wars should be canceled, claiming that the remaining candidates were unable to carry the torch of the Asta Family.

Of course, the final decision was still Oscar's.

But everyone still made sure to voice their opinions. Some even said that it might be better if the Heir Wars were restarted and only allowed those above thirty to participate.

They argued that these people would be more mature and responsible enough to understand what was at stake.

The majority of the Elders found this proposal to their liking. After some thought, they realized that leaving their future to young adults might not really be the best option for their Family.

"The Heir Wars will continue when the school year starts once more," Oscar declared. "Nothing will change. Those who were not eliminated in the earlier trials will still be eligible to become the new Patriarch or Matriarch.

"Although they are still young, they have plenty of time to learn how our Family functions. Also, we have always followed that only the fittest is allowed to become the Head of the Family.

"Since that is the case, there is no need to change the rules that we have made when we decided to hold the competition."

The Elders didn't like Oscar's decision, but his glare shut them all up.

At the end of the day, the strongest Wizard in their family was still Oscar. Not only that, but he was also the current Patriarch of the Family, so his words were law.

"My decision is final," Oscar said. "Inform all the surviving candidates of the news. I know that some of you are opposed to my decision. So, whoever wants to change my mind should challenge me in a duel.

"If you win, I will allow you to choose who will be the next Patriarch or Matriarch of our family."

Everyone looked at each other in dismay because none of them dared to challenge Oscar in a duel.

Although there were many strong Wizards and Witches in the Asta Family, none of them had fought wars like Oscar did, so when it came to fighting skills, they would not last in a battle against him even if they were to fight him three to one.

With heavy hearts, the members of the Asta Family left the conference room one by one, until only Oscar remained.

When he was sure that no one was around, the Old Patriarch sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose.

The decision he made wasn't an easy one, but he still made it based on his years of experience in the political world.

Now that the entirety of the Shire Continent was headed to war, he would need to make sure that someone would be left behind to take care of the family just in case the worst-case scenario happened.

As long as their family bloodline would continue to exist after the calamity was over, Oscar was willing to stand on the frontlines of the battlefield. Once everything was over, the future generations would finally be able to live their lives in peace.
