Strongest Warlock - Wizard World Irregular

"No need to thank me, Ethan,” Ethan’s Other Half said in a friendly tone. “I paved the path for you, so you can directly hook up with Lilian. Don’t worry, buddy. This Big Bro has your back.”

Sebastian only chuckled, amused by Ethan’s deadpan expression as he walked towards the back of the Library.

After escorting Luna back to Dud Manor, he went straight to the Secret Tree House, where Emma was waiting for him.

Since he had already been given access to the tree, all he needed to do was knock on it twice for a door to appear.

As soon as he entered the room, he found a seductive young lady, with long black hair and brown eyes, wearing a one-piece night dress that highlighted the curves of her body.

"Shameless!”

Lilith jumped out of Ethan’s shadow and glared at the Assistant Librarian, who had pulled all the stops to seduce her Master.

"What do you mean shameless?” Emma asked in an innocent tone. “It’s already late at night, and I’m just waiting for Master to arrive before I sleep. How am I shameless?”

"Hmph! Only babies will believe that crap.” Lilith scoffed. “Master, this girl is up to no good. I can see it in her eyes.”

"I am Master’s Promised One,” Emma stated. “How can I possibly hurt Master? Please, your jealousy is misplaced. If you work with me to pin down Master tonight, you can become one of his concubines, you know?”

Lilith gave Ethan a sidelong glance before lowering her head.

For a brief moment, she considered accepting Emma’s proposal in order to get close to her Master.

"See, Master? The one you should be worried about is this thieving cat,” Emma shook her head helplessly. “I just goaded her a bit, and she almost accepted my proposal. She can’t be trusted.”

"Y-You, stop talking nonsense!” Lilith lunged towards Emma with the intention of giving her a piece of her mind.

However, Ethan managed to grab the back of her neck in mid-air, holding her in place.

"Okay, let’s stop here,” Ethan replied. He then walked towards the couch to take a seat and placed Lilith on his lap, stroking her fur.

This black cat immediately started purring after getting her Master’s attention.

"Tsk.” Emma clicked her tongue after seeing the shameless cat enjoy their Master’s petting.

Not wanting to lose, she sat beside Ethan and looked at him with an inquiring gaze.

"Master, you said that you have something to give me?” Emma asked.

Ethan nodded. “Give me your hand.”

His Promised One obeyed and placed her right hand on the palm of Ethan’s hand.

A moment later, the snake armlet on Ethan’s forearm slithered onto Emma’s hand, coiling on her forearm before transforming into a black-golden snake armlet.

"This is the Giant Black Snake that we beat in the Legacy Domain,” Ethan said. “You lack offensive and defensive abilities, so I’m giving him to you to serve as your Protector. If you need its help, just call its name, Nirah.”

"Nirah Emma muttered as she looked at the snake armlet in her hand.

This was the first gift she had received from Ethan, and it made her heart feel warm with joy.

"I’ll treasure it, Master,” Emma stated. “Thank you for the gift.”

Lilith already had a feeling that Ethan was going to give the snake armlet to Emma, so she wasn’t too surprised.

Although she was envious, she didn’t let it show in her face. In fact, as long as she was allowed to be in Ethan’s shadow, she was already very happy. Being by his side was more than enough.

"Master, actually I need a favor,” Emma said softly.

"Yes?” Ethan looked at the seductive young lady who was making his heart beat wildly inside his chest.

He didn’t understand why this was happening, but for some reason, his body was reacting to her.

In fact, a glowing purple runic emblem that meant “soul” appeared on the back of Ethan’s right hand.

At the same time, the rune that was on Emma’s chest glowed as well, making it visible through her black night dress.

"Master, I need you to sleep beside me tonight,” Emma replied. “Don’t worry, I won’t do anything. I just need to… recharge my connection with you. This will also unlock some of the sealed abilities of the runes that we share, allowing us to communicate over great distances through telepathy.”

Before Ethan could even reply, Ethan’s Other Half made a comment inside his consciousness.

"Ethan, you have been ignoring your responsibilities to your Promised One,” Ethan’s Other Half commented. “You still don’t understand this at the moment, but when you finish your Coming of Age Trial, you will realize how important she is in your life. In fact, your souls are tied together, and if you die, she will die as well.

"But the latter cannot be said for her. If she dies, she dies alone. As her Master, while you will not be affected by her death, your death will spell the end of her. Treat her better, okay?

"This girl, despite being a schemer, is holding herself back for you. This proves how much she likes and trusts you. For the men and women of the Four Protector Clans, it is their greatest honor to be chosen as your Promised One.”

Ethan already understood that his relationship with Emma was special. Unlike Chloe, Luna, and Lily, whom he truly loved, Emma played a more supporting role, similar to a background character.

She didn’t like to be in the limelight and simply made sure that Ethan shone. Like a shadow that only appeared under the light, her role was to always be the wind beneath his wings.

"Okay,” Ethan replied. “I’ll stay with you tonight. Lilith, you can rest in one of the bedrooms for tonight.”

Lilith sighed and nodded her head.

As one of the members of the Protector Clans, she understood that this was an important part of their duty.

After getting Ethan’s approval, Emma smiled, and her smile made his heart skip a beat.

The seductive beauty then held Ethan’s hand and led him towards the stairs, where the Master Bedroom was located. There was a faint flush on her cheeks, but since she was in front of him, he didn’t see it right away.

As soon as the door was closed, Emma dutifully removed Ethan’s Robes and brought him to the bed.

She then turned off the lantern beside the bed, leaving only the light of the moonlight to illuminate the room.

Emma then pulled the strings of her nightdress, making it drop beside her feet.

After that, she climbed the bed and laid beside Ethan, hugging him close. The young man didn’t resist and allowed Emma to do what she wanted.

This act of skinship made the runes on their bodies glow brighter.

Perhaps, feeling how serious she was, Ethan also wrapped his arms around her body and planted a kiss on Emma’s forehead.

"Goodnight, Emma.”

Goodnight, Ethan.”

Instead of calling him Master, the young lady felt that it was more appropriate to call him by his name.

With feelings of warmth and happiness embracing her body, Emma slept like a baby throughout the night and felt refreshed when she opened her eyes the next day.
