Strongest Warlock - Wizard World Irregular

She was a First Year of Nightfall Academy, and because of this, she could approach their residence with the excuse of patrolling.

There had already been a few duels between the students of Nightfall Academy and their visitors from the other academies.

Some of them even fought within the academy grounds, which caused a lot of problems for the officers who were in charge of public safety.

Of course, these magical duels within the academy grounds didn\'t involve spells that could seriously injure people.

At most, only paralyzing spells and similar spells were used to prevent damage to the academy.

After a stern warning from the Headmaster, most of these duels that were not within the arena decreased drastically. However, some students from the visiting academies were born troublemakers and didn\'t care about such rules.

Unfortunately, Lilian found herself in such a situation on her way to Brynhildr Academy\'s residence.

Two rival academies fought in the air with their broomsticks as they hurled spells against each other.

Since they were fighting in a secluded place, they must have thought that it was safe to engage in battle, so they went all out.

Being the dutiful student that she was, Lilian tried to stop the battle from escalating.

But the two academies didn\'t like someone getting in the way of their duel.

They all attacked Lilian, and her two escorts, surprising the young lady.

"Have you all gone mad?!" Lilian shouted. "I am a student of Nightfall Academy!"

"So what?" A sneer appeared on the face of a skinny young man. "Blackheart Academy doesn\'t give a damn!"

As if to prove his words, several spells flew in Lilian\'s direction, forcing her two escorts to summon barriers to protect her.

However, since there were just three of them, and all of them were First Years, their barrier didn\'t last long.

The concentrated spell power of over a dozen wizards and witches overpowered their defenses, blasting them away from where they stood.

Fortunately, the students of Blackheart Academy and Shadowscale Academy still had a sense of propriety, and no longer attacked the fallen teenagers.

They once again fought against each other, sending spells flying across the sky.

\'These fools.\' Lilian tried to prop herself up from the ground, but the paralyzing spells hit her and were still in effect.

She could only watch helplessly as the students of the two academies engaged each other in the sky.

But something unexpected happened.

Perhaps out of anger, one of the wizards that belonged to Blackheart Academy ignored the unwritten rule of only using paralyzing spells in battle and cast a Fireball.

"Bastard!" a witch from Shadowscale Academy immediately evaded the attack, and the Fireball flew harmlessly past her.

Unfortunately, the Fireball was now headed towards the defenseless Lilian on the ground.

\'Brother! Save me!\' Lilian cried out in her heart as a spell that could potentially cause her serious injuries descended from the sky.

At that moment, someone with long blue hair appeared in her vision and casually struck the Fireball with a trident, dispersing it completely.

"If you don\'t stop now, I will call the guards of the academy to personally deal with all of you," Ethan declared. "You\'ve already attacked a student of Nightfall Academy, which is a serious offense. Are all of you really prepared to suffer the consequences of your actions?"

The students of the two academies glanced at each other after hearing Ethan\'s words. Now that there were more people getting involved in their duel, they decided to take a step back and resume their duel at a later time.

All of them flew in different directions, but before they did that, they made sure to look at the handsome young man on the ground.

They memorized his face and added him to the list of people whom they would teach a lesson after they entered the Legacy Gate.

When he was certain that the students of the two academies were finally gone, Ethan turned around to check on Lilian\'s condition.

The young lady looked at Ethan with a grateful gaze because he had saved her from getting injured.

Ethan took out his wand and lightly waved his hand.

"Recuperatio," Ethan said.

He cast a minor recovery spell that could dispel the effects of Paralysis.

Regaining her freedom to move, Lilian propped herself up from the ground. However, due to the lingering effects of the paralyzing spell, she lost her balance.

Fortunately, Ethan was there to catch her, holding her close to him.

"Are you alright?" Ethan asked.

"Y-Yes," Lilian stuttered as she looked at the handsome young man, who was making her heart beat wildly inside her chest.

"Are you hurt anywhere?" Ethan asked. "Do you need a healing potion?"

Lilian shook her head while trying to calm her emotions.

While Ethan was checking on the beautiful young lady, Emma cast Recuperatio to Lilian\'s bodyguards, who were still affected by the paralyzing spell.

But similar to Lilian, they were still too weak to stand up on their own. At most, they would need a few minutes to fully regain the strength in their bodies.

"The residence of Brynhildr Academy is close to this place," Ethan said as she looked at Lilian, whose gaze never left his face. "Do you want to rest there for a while?"

"Can I?" Lilian asked. She had finally regained her composure and was able to answer without stuttering.

Ethan nodded. "Yes. Your complexion doesn\'t look too good. Your face is flushed, and your breathing is a bit ragged. It would be best to rest there for a while until the effect of the paralyzing spell wears off."

"I will accept your kind offer," Lilian replied. "However, I am still unable to walk."

"No problem." Ethan smiled before casually lifting Lilian in a princess carry. "Emma, I will be going ahead first. Please bring them along with you."

Without another word, the handsome young man carried the beautiful young lady in his arms, whose face had turned a shade redder.

Emma clicked her tongue before she waved her wand to make the two young ladies on the ground levitate in the air.

She then followed behind her Master while looking at the blonde-haired beauty, who was staring at Ethan with a flushed expression on her face.
