Wizard World Irregular

Chapter 755: Ethan’s Gamble [Part 1]



It was right after sunset.

The usually crowded Tavern was awfully deserted, and its doors were firmly closed.

No light could be seen on the first floor, and only one room was faintly lit on the second floor.

But, this room was located at the very back of the Tavern, so the regular patrons weren't able to see it.

It was also raining hard just like always, so people didn't really want to stay outside and get soaked by the rain.

Fortunately, there was a scroll plastered on the door that said "Temporarily Closed. Doing renovations, and will reopen in two days."

The tavern's regular customers found this notice very unusual.

But, since a proper notice was posted, they decided to just come back after two days to see the renovations that Agnes and her family were working on.

While everyone was feeling disappointed because they couldn't have fun at their usual hang out place, the candle light inside Ethan's room flickered from time to time.

Chloe hung limp in Nicole's embrace, as the latter slowly licked the blood that was oozing out from the two puncture wounds in the young lady's neck.

After she felt her connection with Ethan fade, Nicole went to the town and entered the Tavern, while it was still closed.

As a Witch, it was very easy for her to do something like this.

She had caught Agnes, Chloe, and Benjamin completely by surprise.

Nicole didn't hesitate and turned Agnes and Benjamin into ice statues, forcing Chloe to submit to her.

The Witch of the East promised her that if she cooperated willingly, her parents would be freed from their imprisonment.

Faced with a difficult choice, Chloe chose to submit and allowed Nicole to drink her magically endowed blood.

This allowed the Witch to temporarily endure the coldness that was spreading inside her body, due to the power of her Legacy.

"Did you really think that I would not know that you were the one that helped Ethan escape?" Nicole asked softly as she raised Chloe's chin with her finger.

Chloe was in a daze and was unable to give her answer because she was currently under Nicole's control.

Truth be told, the young lady was the next one among Nicole's targets before Ethan arrived. But, since she found better, and more delicious, prey, she had left her alone.

However, that all changed when the Witch of the East was able to trace her magic as it slowly leaked out of her crystal ball.

She found out that it was coming from the Tavern, which made her connect the dots.

Because of this, she didn't hesitate to confront Chloe's family, and make her submit to her by force.

And now, she had succeeded in putting the hateful Tavern Girl under her control.

While Nicole was thinking of ways she could humiliate and ruin the girl who had foiled her plans, she felt a presence enter the Tavern, making her eyes widen in shock.

A faint smile appeared on the Witch's face because she was very familiar with this presence.

She didn't do anything and simply waited in Ethan's room, lightly caressing Chloe's back, while paying close attention to the door.

Nicole could hear his footsteps and, from what she could tell, it seemed like her late-night visitor didn't plan to hide from her.

Finally, the door of the room opened, showing the young man, who had escaped from her grasp a few days ago.

Ethan frowned after seeing Chloe being held by the Witch.

The faint traces of something red could be seen on the girl's neck, and he could tell that Chloe was in some kind of trance.

The young man had been in a similar position as her in the past, so he was feeling guilty that she had to suffer the consequences of saving him.

"Welcome back, Ethan," Nicole said with a smile. "Perfect timing. I was just about to ravage this beauty in my arms. Why don't you join me? She's still a maiden, so if you like, I can let you eat her first. How about it?"

Nicole didn't know why Ethan suddenly appeared before her. But, this was the perfect opportunity to make him fall for her a second time.

This time, she was confident that the young man would not be able to escape her clutches a second time. She had made her preparations and even if Fortis Dud got in the way a second time, he wouldn't be able to do anything to stop her.

Since Chloe had come to save him, Nicole knew that using her as a hostage would have an effect on him.

She wasn't afraid. Even if Ethan were to suddenly run away with Chloe, it wouldn't matter because the young lady was now under her control.

There were many scenarios that were going on inside Nicole's head, and depending on how Ethan reacted, she would choose the appropriate method to deal with him.

However, Ethan's reply was completely out of her expectation, making her wonder if she had misheard it.

"Sounds fun," Ethan replied. "Then, shall we ravage her together?"

The young man then slowly approached the bed, making Nicole raise her guard.

"Stop where you are," Nicole ordered. "Don't come a single step closer."

Ethan didn't hesitate and raised his arms in surrender, as if telling Nicole that he didn't plan

to resist.

However, the more he acted like this, the more Nicole raised her guard.

"What are you planning?" Nicole asked with a frown.

"Didn't you invite me to join you in ravishing Chloe?" Ethan asked back. "I found this

proposal very enticing, so I decided to join you."

The frown on the Witch's face deepened because Ethan was being casual about it.

His carefree attitude was making her feel as if something was terribly wrong, and he was

planning something that could potentially harm her.

"Toss me your wand," Nicole ordered. "Do it now."

Ethan summoned his wand, and placed it over the palm of his hand.

Nicole then used her wand to pull Ethan's wand towards her, securing it in her hand.

She inspected Ethan's wand to make sure that it was genuine.

When she had taken control of the boy for a day, she had familiarized herself with his wand,

so she was certain that the wand in her hand right now was authentic.

"Raise your hands up," Nicole commanded. "I want to make sure that you're not hiding

anything funny."

Once again, Ethan did as he was commanded, raising both of his hands in surrender.

Chloe then rose from the bed and walked towards Ethan in a daze.

She then slowly removed his clothes one piece at a time, while Nicole's wand remained

pointed in his direction.

If the young man did anything funny, she would not hesitate to use a spell to incapacitate

him.

A minute later, Ethan was standing naked in front of the two ladies.

Although Chloe was in a trance, a tinge of pink was slowly rising up her neck to her cheeks, as

if she was blushing from what she was seeing.

Nicole circled Ethan, maintaining a safe distance with her wand, ready to strike.

She carefully observed his lithe and muscular body, which had embraced her own, making her

body start to heat up as she remembered those passionate memories.

After circling him a third time, and seeing that nothing was out of place, Nicole smirked and

cast a spell on his body.

"Debilito!" The spell hit Ethan's chest directly, making him stiffen and fall backwards

helplessly.
