Wizard World Irregular-Chapter 844: That Stupid Princess Is Definitely Bad-Mouthing Me Behind My Back

Two days after Ethan and Nicole had a heart-to-heart talk, the young lady had recovered enough to return to her own room.

The Flying Ship was almost at the northern end of Midgard. Beyond that was the boundless sea, which they had to cross to reach the Shire Continent.

It had been a long and eventful journey, bearing priceless fruits. Not only did they succeed in saving Princess Ramona's soul, but they also got to meet the Progenitor of Magic, Hecate. The most powerful Wizards and Witches in the world would love to be in Ethan's shoes. Frankly, they would do anything to meet her even once in their lifetime.

Unfortunately, Lady Hecate wasn't someone who could easily be seen even if they so desperately wished for it.

She just so happened to be waiting for Ethan's arrival, so she had allowed him to have an audience with her.

But their meeting ended abruptly because the young man decided to fight her in order to save Ramona's soul and Nicole from her grasp.

Honestly, he, too, thought that he and the Progenitor of Magic would have a long and wonderful talk together.

Sadly, it wasn't meant to be.

Still, they were both able to gain a lot from this experience

Aside from meeting the Progenitor, they also arrived at World's End, a place located at the edge of the world, where the bottomless abyss could be found.

They also became aware that creatures from other worlds were working to invade Midgard and set a foothold in it.

Not only that, but they were also able to gain a bit of information about Arawn and his relationship with the Fomorians from Godfrey.

The ones who managed to get this information were Lilith and Princess Ramona.

Godfrey only talked to beautiful ladies, so he was more than happy to share what he knew about the King of Anwnn, who ruled the Kingdom located on the borders of life and death.

Of course, the Vampire Lord knew that the two ladies were doing this for Ethan's sake, but he was fine with sharing this information with them.

The reason was because all the hardships he had encountered were due to his connection with Arawn, and if possible, he wanted Ethan to f*ck up the King of Anwnn as well.

That way, he would feel a little better about the things that happened to him ever since he met Ethan and his entourage.

"Are you feeling better?" Princess Ramona asked Ethan as she sat on top of the bed.

"Yes," Ethan replied. "Lilith is just being overprotective and wants me to stay in bed for a day longer. It's not like I'll be in danger inside the Flying Ship, you know?"

"I wouldn't be too sure about that," Princess Ramona replied. "Last night, Lyall almost snuck into your room, you know? If Lilith hadn't caught her, she might have taken advantage of you in your weakened state."

"..." Ethan suddenly felt a cold chill run down his spine because he was not a match against Lyall in his current state.

While he was feeling better and could use a bit of magic, he still hadn't fully recovered.

Princess Ramona giggled after seeing Ethan's expression because he looked like someone who had eaten a fly.

"Don't worry. Lilith and I will be staying with you tonight," Princess Ramona said. "We'll make sure to protect you against Lyall."

"Will the two of you not eat me?" Ethan asked in a teasing tone.

"I can't make that promise," Princess Ramona replied as she looked at Ethan's naked upper body. "Lilith has been holding back since you were taking care of Nicole. But now that she has recovered, she will definitely ask for some intimate moments with you."

"And you're going to join her?" Ethan smiled mischievously.

"...I might,” Princess Ramona blushed. "But only if you want it."

Ethan gazed at the young lady who had finally been reunited with him after suffering for hundreds of years.

"Ramona," Ethan said softly as he reached out to her.

The Princess nodded in understanding and allowed Ethan to hug her.

"We have a lot of things to talk about," Ethan hugged the young lady firmly. "I know the general story of how you went on a journey to meet with Lady Hecate, but I'd love to hear the story from your own lips."

"Okay," Princess Ramona replied. "I will tell you everything I know. But first... let's find a more comfortable position, shall we?"

The young lady then lay on the bed and asked Ethan to hug her again as she told him her story.

Ethan obeyed, and after a while, Princess Ramona started her tale.

"While I was the Saintess of the Order of the Tidebringer, I was allowed access to the libraries of the various Kingdoms in the Lands of Alastor. Like most mortals who wish to live a very long life, I read countless records about how to become an immortal.

"Some of those scrolls spoke of a fruit that would allow me to become immortal. It is called Ambrosia, the food of the Gods. But if such a thing truly exists, I doubt that it would be within the reach of Mortals like me.

"The second method I discovered was to become one of the Undead, a Vampire. However, for that to happen, I must be bitten by one. But there is a downside. I will forever be loyal to the one who turned me into a Vampire, and I'm naturally unwilling to let that happen."

Ethan subconsciously tightened his hold on the Princess when the thought of Godfrey turning her into a Vampire flashed across his mind.

If the Vampire Lord appeared in the Lands of Alastor before Princess Ramona left for her journey, he might have succeeded in seducing her using the temptation of immortality.

The mere thought of the Vampire Lord sinking his fangs into the Princess' neck and making her his slave for life was something he didn't want to even think about, making him breathe a sigh of relief that their paths didn't cross hundreds of years ago.

"Then, as the years went by, I was starting to lose hope," Princess Ramona said bitterly. "But one day, Illumina appeared before me. She told me that she might have found a way to grant me my wish. But in order to do that, the two of us had to journey to World's End.

"She has been helping me since you and your sister, Joanne, returned to the future, so I didn't doubt her words. Because of that, I stepped down from my position as Saintess, and we went on a journey together."

Ethan knew that Illumina had accompanied Princess Ramona on her journey, but he didn't expect that it was the Mermaid Princess who had proposed that Princess Ramona meet with the Progenitor of Magic to grant her wish.

But the more the Princess told her story, the more he realized that their journey hadn't been a smooth one.

It was filled with perils, especially since they traveled mostly on foot.

"I lived in the Magdar Kingdom all my life, so when we met many other races like Kobolds, Goblins, Gnomes, Orcs, Trolls, and Ogres, I thought that I was going to die." Princes Ramona smiled faintly as she recalled her journey with the Mermaid Princess.

"That is also when I discovered that Illumina has a very short temper. She might act calm on the surface, but when she gets angry, she won't hesitate to destroy everything in her path."

***

Somewhere in the sea's of Midgard...

A beautiful Mermaid Princess sneezed, making her pause her exploration of one of the ruined cities that had been part of Atlantis thousands of years ago.

"That stupid Princess is definitely bad-mouthing me behind my back," Illumina said as she

gazed in the distance. "I wonder... Did she and Ethan meet already?"

The Mermaid Princess then glanced at the city below her and sighed.

"I better finish collecting the items I'm looking for so I can reunite with them also," Illumina muttered. "Time waits for no one."

After saying those words, the Mermaid Princess looked at the ruined city with determination before diving toward it.

She wanted to meet Ethan so badly, but she also knew that meeting him now would not be the

best for the two of them.

Right now, Ethan wasn't strong enough to ensure her and everyone else's happiness, so she

was working hard to make it happen.

The Mermaid Princess was currently looking for the artifacts that once belonged to the Tidebringer, which would allow Ethan to fight toe to toe against the Progenitors when the right time came.
