Chapter 101 It Was You Who Licked My Cheeks Last Night
“How was it?” Luna asked Chloe, who was seated beside her in the Grand Stadium.
“It was okay,” Chloe replied with her face as red as a tomato.
“Only okay?”
“Un.”
Luna smirked because although Chloe was trying to downplay her kissing session with Ethan, the angelic beauty knew that her “best friend” was feeling very happy inside.
The two of them shared the same feelings for Ethan, so both of them decided to team up to make sure that no vixen would try to make the handsome teenager fall for them.
Truth be told, Luna was a bit jealous of Chloe. When Ethan kissed her, she understood that the teenage boy wasn’t in the right state of mind.
Also, the color of his eyes was different back then. Those eyes seemed to suck people in, and even Luna wasn’t able to resist and surrendered her lips to the young man, who was currently standing in the arena in front of her.
Still, it didn’t change the fact that it was their first time kissing someone. So although it was forced, Luna was happy to have one of Ethan’s firsts.
She didn’t know why, but whenever she was with Ethan, she felt as if she was at peace.
Even though many wizards had tried to approach her, hoping for a marriage alliance, she turned them all down.
But with Ethan, she felt that she could take that final step and bind her Fate to him.
While the two were waiting for the match to start, a certain pink-haired beauty suddenly appeared before them and sat beside Chloe.
“Why are you blushing?” Nicole asked in a teasing tone. “Did something good happen between you and Ethan?”
Chloe gave Nicole a side-long glance before shifting her gaze back to the handsome teenager in the arena.
Instead of giving an answer, Ethan’s cousin countered Nicole’s question with a question of her own.
“What are you doing here?” Chloe asked without even looking at the young lady beside her.
“Am I not allowed to be here?” Nicole chuckled. “If you are here, why can’t I be here?”
“I am Ethan’s cousin.”
“I am Ethan’s training partner.”
Chloe didn’t have any words to refute Nicole’s claim because she was indeed Ethan’s training partner.
“I’ve trained him to the bone for this match,” Nicole stated before shifting her gaze to the blue-haired boy who was waiting for his opponent to arrive. “If he doesn’t win this match, all that training would have been in vain.”
Luna, who had stayed silent during Chloe’s and Nicole’s tirade, decided to break her silence.
“You’re saying that Ethan will win this match?” Luna inquired.
“Yes,” Nicole replied.
“What makes you certain that he will win??” Chloe asked with great interest.
Nicole smiled before tapping her forehead with her finger.
“Women’s intuition,” Nicole said with a confident smile on her face. “What’s wrong? Don’t the two of you think that he will win?”
“W-What are you talking about?” Chloe stuttered. “Of course we know he will win.”
Luna nodded “That’s right. He will win for sure.”
“See?” Nicole arched an eyebrow. “Since Ethan is going to win, I decided to be on the side of the winning team. Also, regardless of whether he will win or not, he owes me a favor.”
Before Chloe and Luna could even ask what that favor was, cheers suddenly rose from the stands as the First Years applauded the cutest girl among the First Years, who had just stepped into the arena.
“As popular as ever,” Luna commented. “If this was a cheering competition, she would win hands down.”
Nicole chuckled after hearing Luna’s comment, but she didn’t say anything. Instead, her eyes landed on the young lady whom she considered to be her rival.
As if sensing her gaze, Lily looked up and waved at Nicole before giving her a peace sign.
Nicole found this amusing, so she also waved back at Lily.
The two then stared at each other for a few seconds, as if recognizing each other’s strength.
Professor Barret, who was waiting on the stage, looked at the two combatants before raising his hand.
“Both of you already know the rules, so I will no longer explain it,” Professor Barret said. “However, before the match starts, do you have something to say to each other?”
“I don’t,” Ethan said before taking out his wand. He wasn’t wielding his trademark pitchfork during this battle because he had a feeling that it would only get in the way of his match with Lily.
His opponent, on the other hand, raised her hand, and told Professor Barret that she had something to say.
“Go on.” Professor Barret nodded and gestured for Lily to speak her mind.
Lily looked at Ethan with a devilish smile on her face.
“Ethan, I apologize for what I did last night,” Lily said. “You were so forceful and it was my first time, so I pushed you away. If you win this match, I will honor our agreement and go on a date with you on the weekend.”
“What?!” Chloe immediately stood up after hearing Lily’s words. “Ethan you bastard! What did you do to her last night?!”
Even Luna was looking at Ethan as if she wanted to pin him to the ground, and interrogate him about last night’s events.
Immediately, shouts of anger, and curses, rained down on the handsome teenager, who was rooted at the spot.
A moment later, booing sounds reverberated across the Stadium, making Professor Violet giggle.
“This boy moves so fast,” Professor Violet commented. “Did he decide to jump to fourth base before their match even started today? Quite impressive. The young ones these days are so bold.”
Professor Lionel and Professor Njal who was seated beside her nodded their heads in agreement.
Professor Rinehart, on the other hand, chuckled after hearing Lily’s words.
‘This girl is really mischievous,’ Professor Rinehart thought. ‘Using Psychological Warfare from the very beginning to put pressure on her opponent.’
Professor Barret also had an amused expression on his face. He was once the strongest Magistratus before he retired, so it was very easy for him to spot lies.
He knew that Lily was joking, but he decided to not call her out.
The reason?
He wanted to know how Ethan would respond to Lily’s provocation. Fortunately, he didn’t have to wait long before Ethan made his move.
“Nonsense!” Ethan shouted. “It was you who licked my cheeks last night, telling me that you want to have a bite!”
For a brief moment, a pin-drop silence descended in the Grand Stadium. A few seconds later, shouts of “Liar!”, “Bastard!”, and “Playboy!” spread in the surroundings like wildfire.
Chloe and Luna were now glaring at Lily as if she had crossed a line that she shouldn’t have crossed.
Although they had been confused at the start, after Ethan cleared things up, they knew that the perpetrator was none other than the cute blonde girl, whose face had turned beet red after Ethan called her out.
Nicole giggled because she found this quite entertaining. Even before the fight started, everyone in the stadium were all fired up, but for different reasons.
Right now, all the First Years and the Second Years wanted to tear Ethan apart, limb from limb.
While they didn’t know if what he said was true or not, the fact that he had been licked by Lily was enough for them to curse him until he lost all the hair on his head.
