Wizard World Irregular

Chapter 499 What It Feels To Be Heartbroken

Ethan flipped the pages of his book, occasionally patting the Black Cat sitting on his lap.

He had managed to get the permission of Professor Barret to take the Diary of the Adventurer back to Dud Manor on the condition that he wouldn’t show it to other people.

The young man was fascinated with the record of the eccentric Wizard who traveled the world of Midgard.

Although most of the records written in his diaries were rants and complaints about the people and other races whom he met along his journey, they still contained very useful information about Moon Magic, as well as other things.

Truth be told, Ethan could use the magic of the Witches whom he had kissed. If he kissed Luna, then he would be able to use Moon Magic without any penalty.

This was why he was also very interested in the spells that the old man had written in his diary.

Magic was the power of Imagination.

The heart gave it strength, while the mind gave it form.

The reason why people chanted spells was to empower the word of magic inside their heads, allowing them to better visualize what the spell that they were about to cast would look like.

If they could envision the magic properly, it would manifest and take form, creating what people called Miracles during ancient times.

Yes. The power to shoot flames, create ice, make trees grow, and call out the rain from the sky used to be considered miracles.

And these miracles would be later known to the world as Magic.

The more Ethan read the diary, the more fascinated he became.

Even Lilith’s purring as he patted her didn’t make him lose his concentration as he flipped one page after the other, voraciously reading the life story of the eccentric Adventurer.

“Master, it’s already two o'clock in the morning,” Lilith reminded. “Please, get some rest. You can continue reading tomorrow.”

Ethan glanced at the clock on the wall and saw that it was indeed two in the morning.

Recalling that he promised Emma that he would go on a date with her tomorrow in Limeburgh Town, the young man reluctantly placed a bookmark on the ancient tome before closing it with a sigh.

“I’ll just shower tomorrow,” Ethan thought as he headed towards the bed in order to sleep. “Lilith, please wake me up at eight in the morning.”

Lilith nodded. “Understood, Master.”

His date with Emma was scheduled for ten in the morning, and two hours was plenty of time to prepare for it.

It didn’t take long for him to fall asleep, which prompted Lilith to jump on the bed and snuggle up against his chest.

A moment later, she, too, fell asleep, without a care in the world.

Somewhere in Grandshire…

While the eastern side of the continent was asleep, it was noon time in Nightfall Academy.

Cedric had a frown on his face as he read the letter that came from his grandfather.

In the letter, his grandfather apologized and told him that the people he had sent to Oswald Barony as his representatives failed in their mission to convince Luna’s family to agree to an arranged marriage.

According to his grandfather, he could personally go and visit them, but the chances of him convincing them were very low.

He knew what kind of people Philip and Rhea were since they had served him loyally through his younger years.

His grandfather also added that he had received the information he had requested about Ethan and everything that happened during the Ballroom Party.

He then advised his grandson to look for other partners because right now, the newly-appointed Honorary Knight was someone whom the Kingdom didn’t want to antagonize at this point in time.

Cedric had read the letter three times already, hoping beyond hope that he had missed an important detail hidden between the lines.

But after reading it for the third time, a sigh escaped his lips before he returned the letter inside its envelope and placed it inside his drawer.

“Give up?” Cedric muttered. “How can I give up?”

The moment he saw Luna, he fell in love.

It was his first time falling in love with someone, and it pained him to know that he would be unable to realize the feelings inside his heart.

He knew why his sister had decided to transfer to Brynhildr Academy, and surprisingly, he didn’t hate her for it.

Cedric loved his sister and wanted her to find happiness.

He had also recognized that Ethan was a very strong Wizard.

The two of them had battled twice.

He lost against Luna’s lover the first time, and their second match was a draw.

That was more than enough for Cedric to understand how strong his opponent was, and frankly, if not for the fact that he was Luna’s lover, he would have wanted to become his friend.

Right now, he was feeling torn.

A part of him wanted to let go, but the other part wanted him to persist.

It was during this time when he didn’t know what to do with his life that someone knocked on the door of his room and called out to him.

“Cedric, the Headmaster wants to see you. Please come to the Headmaster’s Office as soon as possible.”

“Understood,” Cedric replied as he forcefully took control of his emotions. “I’ll be there in a few minutes.”

After giving his reply, Cedric went to wash his face in order to calm himself down.

It had been months since he last saw Ethan, and he was very tempted to visit Brynhildr Academy to convince Luna one last time.

He already knew that his chances were nearly non-existent, but he had to do it, so he could live his life without regrets.

At least, he would know that he had done his best until the very end.

Even if he failed, he would be able to move on easier.

He understood that he would be heartbroken, but he had done the same to countless ladies who had confessed their feelings to him over the years.

‘I guess this is what it feels to be heartbroken,’ Cedric thought as he left his room. ‘It’s not a very good feeling. Not good at all.’

The handsome teenager’s footsteps echoed down the quiet halls of Nightfall Academy.

If one were to listen to them properly, one would be able to hear the sadness in each of his steps, revealing the feelings in his heart.
