Strongest Warlock - Wizard World Irregular

Chapter 409: Treated As A Stud Horse And A Breeding Horse

"Do you know why the two of you are here in my office right now?”

Professor Rinehart looked at Ethan and Nicole with a mischievous look on his face.

"It’s about the Dungeon Outbreak, right?” Ethan answered.

"Yes,” Professor Rinehart replied. “Tomorrow, a very important guest will be arriving at the academy, and he wants to see the two of you… especially you, Ethan.”

The young man groaned internally. He had already expected something like this to happen ever since Nicole had warned him about it.

Even so, he was hoping beyond hope that things wouldn’t escalate to the point that he would become too high-profile, not only in the academy but among the Nobility of Eastshire as well.

"To make things easier, and for the two of you to understand how important this person is, I will tell you his identity,” Professor Rinehart stated. “He is none other than the Grand Archmage of Eastshire and the King’s right-hand man, Edmond Bourbon.”

Nicole arched an eyebrow after hearing the name of the special person who would arrive at the academy tomorrow to meet them.

All the High-Ranking Nobles, businessmen, as well as influential people in Eastshire knew who Edmond Bourbon was.

He was part of the Big Three of Eastshire, alongside the Ex-Magistratus, Professor Barret, and the Headmaster of Brynhildr Academy, Professor Rinehart.

The three of them were deemed as the three most powerful Wizards and the influence and authority each of them possessed covered the entirety of the Human Kingdom.

The funny thing was that all three of them were good friends and always watched each other’s backs.

This was also why Professor Rinehart was always up to date on all of the juiciest gossip, as well as the latest information regarding the Noble Families.

There were even times when Edmond would tell them State Secrets and then ask them to help him handle things from the shadows.

Since the three of them only wished for the prosperity of the Eastshire Kingdom, they all worked hand in hand to defend it from outside forces, who, to this day, were still doing their best to plant roots in their home turf.

"I don’t know if this is related to his visit, but there is a high chance that both of you will be invited to the Grand Ball that will be held at the Royal Palace in twelve days,” Professor Rinehart stated. “I’m sure that you are already aware, so do your best to act in a manner befitting of the students of Brynhildr Academy.

"Avoid unnecessary drama and conflicts. There is also a chance that people will try to bribe, buy, and outright poach you to become their subordinates or retainers. While I cannot dictate what the two of you should do, I greatly advise you to be extra careful about agreeing to such things.

"Noble Politics is a very messy and toxic thing. I’d hate to see your talents be used by people who only wished to advance their own goals, treating the two of you as tools… or worse, as a stud horse and a breeding horse.”

Nicole smirked because this was a very common practice among Noble Households. Most of the old Wizard Families did this very often in order to strengthen their bloodlines.

This was why they were always on the lookout for talented Wizards and Witches who had the potential to continue their family’s legacy and bring them back to their glory days.

Ethan, on the other hand, had no interest in becoming a stud horse. He already had several beautiful young ladies as his lovers.

Even if the King were to present his daughters to him for marriage, Ethan would decline them in a heartbeat.

He already had his hands full with his women, and adding more was something that he didn’t want to do, especially after his latest breakup with Chloe, which, to this day, still hurt him.

"Well, then. That is all I want to say,” Professor Rinehart said. “Ah! Maybe there is one more thing that I forgot. Ethan, can you dance?”

"No,” Ethan replied with a straight face.

"How about you, Nicole?” Professor Rinehart asked.

"I can,” Nicole replied.

Professor Rinehart smiled. “Good. Since this is a good opportunity, why don’t you teach Ethan how to dance? He will be interacting with the Nobles at the party after all, so it is very important that he knows how to dance in front of everyone.”

Nicole pondered a bit before shaking her head.

"I’m a very bad teacher when it comes to dancing,” Nicole replied. “But, don’t worry, Professor. I know someone who is very good at dancing. I’m sure that she will be more than happy to teach Ethan how to dance.”

"Very well. I’ll leave this matter in your hands, Nicole.”

"Understood, Professor.”

Ethan watched the exchange and just sighed in his heart. It seemed that his opinion about dancing didn’t really matter because Professor Rinehart seemed dead set on making him learn how to dance.

‘Dancing is an important skill, Ethan,’ Ethan’s Other Half said in a serious tone. ‘Your grandfather will kick you out if he finds out that you don’t know how to dance.’

‘By my grandfather, you mean Grandpa Benjamin?’ Ethan inquired.

‘Of course, not. When I say your grandfather, I’m referring to your grandfather on your biological father’s side. That person has very high expectations of his bloodline, and anyone who doesn’t know how to dance in his family is a disgrace.’

Ethan quieted down because this was the first time that his Other Half had mentioned something about his grandfather.

According to Emma, he would know more about his identity after he completed his coming-of-age ceremony, which would happen once the school year was over.

During summer break, he would go with her to Midgard and visit his homeland, where his Family resided.

Or at least what remained of his family.

After giving them some final pointers, Ethan and Nicole left the Headmaster’s office together.

"I’ll talk to your dance instructor later,” Nicole said with a mischievous smile on her face. “I’m sure that she will be very happy to teach you how to dance. Also, it is also a good opportunity for you to

Nicole whispered something in Ethan’s ears, which made him shake his head helplessly.

"I didn’t know that an aspiring Magical Knight would have these kinds of thoughts in her head,” Ethan said.

"Magical Knights are Humans, too, you know?” Nicole shrugged. “Well then, see you later.”

Without even waiting for Ethan’s reply, Nicole summoned her flying broom and flew away.

Her participation in the defense of Otto City had garnered a lot of attention from the King, so she was certain that sooner or later, she would receive a letter from the Patriarch of the Asta Family, telling her about the details of the next stage of the still ongoing Heir Wars.
