Wizard World Irregular-Chapter 684 The Patron Of The Valentin Family [Part 3]

Ashmedai knew that he needed to clarify things for Ethan, so that he wouldn’t commit any mistakes from that moment onward.

Because of this, he decided to come clean and make sure the young man understood how serious the problem was.

“Take note that even if you don’t make love to a Witch, as long as they hold power within their bodies, and are chaste maidens, your Magic Circuits will be restored,” Ashmedai explained.

“So, make sure to stay away from crazies, especially Lily’s sister, Lyall. One mistake and you can say goodbye to your peaceful life. Of course, if you want to live your life dangerously, go ahead, knock yourself, and her, out.

“After that, I want you to come back, and tell me in great detail if it was all worth it. I’m sure that it will be an entertaining story to pass time.”

Although the Demonic Progenitor was saying these words in a teasing tone, coupled by his mischievous smile, Ethan knew that he was being serious.

‘Don’t worry, Ethan,’ Ethan’s Other Half commented. ‘If by some incident, Lyall manages to knock you unconscious and jump at you, I’ll kick her away and run.’

Sebastian chuckled because he was finding Ethan’s current situation funny and scary at the same time.

The young man had a few close calls in the past, and if not for his strong willpower, he might have already done it with Chloe, Emma, and Lilith.

Some say that ignorance is bliss, but in this case, ignorance would have sent the young man down the bunny hole, where things would become a tad too dangerous and chaotic for their taste.

“Although this should be a tightly guarded secret, it would be in your best interest if you open up to your lovers, and tell them about this, especially Chloe, Emma, and Lilith,” Ashmedai commented. “Oh… you should also add a certain Mermaid Princess to the list. She might be the most dangerous one because she had waited hundreds of years for your arrival.”

Ethan pondered for a bit before reluctantly nodding his head.

“I will tell them,” Ethan replied.

“Well you should,” Ashmedai smirked. “It’s not only your life which would be in danger. Their lives would be in danger as well. Don’t forget that communication is important in a relationship.”

After seeing Ethan nod to his words, the Progenitor then snapped his fingers, making the scenery around them change.

The young man found himself inside Mimir’s Sanctuary with the Giant Head looking at Ashmedai with a fed up look on his face.

“Well then, now that the serious talk has ended, let us proceed to something more serious,” Ashmedai stated. “Your coming-of-age trial should have been a trial to deal with your heart demon. But, I decided that you could deal with your heart demon another way.

“The main reason why I sent you to the past was to let Joanne overcome her heart demon, which was you. In short, the trial was for her and not you. However, you didn’t come out of it empty handed.

“Not only did your sister finally recognize you as her brother, I also laid out the foundation, which would allow you to face the Progenitors, who will come for you, once your Magic Circuits have healed completely.

“Of course, you don’t need to thank me. I’m just making sure that my personal vessel will be strong enough to allow me to descend to the mortal realm anytime I want. It’s a win win really. Isn’t that right, Mimir?”

The Giant Head ignored the Demon, and focused his attention on Ethan.

“Although he can be a nuisance at times, Ashmedai did his best to give you the opportunity to defy your fate, Ethan,” Mimir said. “When Princess Ramona created the Order of the Tidebringer, it changed the flow of Faith from the original Tidebringer to you.

“As you may already know, the Lands of Alastor worship the Tidebringer. But, that Tidebringer is not you. When princess Ramona used your image as the object of worship, the power of Faith was redirected to you, allowing you to gain its power.”

“Can I ask a question?” Ethan asked.

“Go ahead,” Mimir nodded.

“Was the Order of the Tidebringer already established when Lily and I returned to the present the first time?”

“The answer is Yes.”

Ethan frowned because if that was the case, why didn’t he gain the power of Faith back then.

“I’m sure you’re thinking why you didn’t get the power of Faith back then, right?” Ashmedai commented.

Ethan nodded. “Yes. Because when I arrived back at the present with Lily, I didn’t feel any changes. So, why did I only gain this power now?”

Mimir smiled. “The answer is really simple, it’s because back then, you were still unaware of it. Only by being aware will you obtain the power of Faith. The power of Faith that you didn’t absorb back then didn’t disappear.

“It merely went to other places, but is now making its way to you. You will gradually feel your body getting stronger as the days pass. But, Ethan, this is only the first step.

“In order to fight against Progenitors, you will need something else aside from the power of Faith. You would need to fully understand the true power of your Origin Magic, and manifest the Fifth Level of all the Legacies you possess.”

Mimir paused and gave Ashmedai a side-long glance before continuing his explanation.

“You have the Tidebringer’s Legacy, and My Wisdom,” Mimir explained. “And now, you will obtain a Third Legacy. The Legacy, which had been yours by birth.”

“That’s right,” Ashmedai clapped his hands together. “Your Other Half is just the half part of your Legacy. The rest lay on the power of your bloodline. I am the Progenitor of Lust, Desire, and Indulgence.

“You can think of me as an Incubus, because their power also falls under my Domain. But, what you should focus on is your desires. What is it that you really want? As long as you want it enough, you will be able to manifest my powers… but, not all desires are meant to be fulfilled.

“You need to reign in your overwhelming emotions, and use that as a source of power to obliterate your foes. The funny thing about you, Ethan, is that you are able to store more than one Legacy in your body.

“That is also one of the attributes of your Origin Magic, which you can take advantage of. The Legacy of Rivers and Lakes, which belonged to Lilian, was absorbed by you. You didn’t take it away from her, but you copied it for yourself.

“In fact you even strengthened it, allowing Lilian to have a boost in her magical powers. So, for the first time in history, there are two people who have the Legacy of the Rivers and Lakes, which should have been impossible because only one Legacy can exist at a time.”

“So, if you find ladies who possess Legacies, you could copy them, and use those powers for yourself. Unfortunately, you can’t do that right now because, once you do, the Progenitors and their Champions will come knocking at your door.”

The Demonic Progenitor sighed because he really felt that it was a pity that Ethan wouldn’t be able to use this cheat-like ability to its fullest.

“Well, that’s enough food for thought for now,” Ashmedai stated. “At least now, you have an idea of what you can do with your powers. So, let’s proceed with making the Pact. As you already know, I am the Patron of the Valentin Family.

“The powers they wield belong to me and with that power you will be able to gain another layer of protection for yourself. My power has three branches, Trickery, Darkness, and Seduction. You may pick one, and I will bestow that power to you. Personally, you should choose Seduction. That branch of magic is very useful when it comes to… you know what.”

Ashemdai gave Ethan a wink, which made the corner of the young man’s lips twitch.
