Strongest Warlock - Wizard World Irregular

The old man chuckled before shifting his gaze to Ethan.

"I\'ve heard many things about you from Lillian, Young Man. And truth be told, I am not too keen on approving you of becoming her lover as well," Gilbert said.

"I don\'t really care about your approval, Sir Gilbert," Ethan replied. "You\'re not the one I plan to marry."

A tense atmosphere suddenly descended inside the living room, which made Philip and Bruce facepalm at the same time.

Joanne, on the other hand, looked excited. With the current situation, it seemed that she would finally see some drama and action, which she believed would be entertaining for her to watch.

Suddenly, the tension in the air was broken by Rhea\'s laughter, which made everyone look in her direction.

"Hahaha! Serves you right, you old fart!" Rhea laughed. "If you think that you can treat this boy like the other nobles, you\'ll find yourself barking up the wrong tree. You\'re already this old, and you still want to meddle with the affairs of the children?

"If I were you, I\'d start building my coffin now, so when you kick the bucket, you\'ll have a good box to put your senile body in."

Rhea had always been a very vocal person and didn\'t give a hoot about who it was she was talking to.

She had earned this right from fighting on the battlefields to keep Eastshire safe, so even the current King of Eastshire, Austen Whitehall, wouldn\'t have the guts to tell her to shut up.

Gilbert snorted before giving Rhea a glare, which the old lady faced with her own glare.

Ignoring the two old people, Luna\'s mother, Irene, glanced at Ethan with a strained smile.

"Ethan, maybe you should have chosen your words more carefully before telling us the reason why you\'ve come to our Barony," Irene said.

"I\'ve thought about that too, Mother." Ethan didn\'t hesitate to call his future mother-in-law Mother, reducing the strain on Irene\'s face. "But I don\'t want to lie and sugarcoat this matter.

"Sure, I could have lied and told everyone that I was just taking Luna to Southshire for a short vacation, but that wouldn\'t sit well with me. I know that what I am doing is a shameful thing, so I\'d rather face your criticisms than lie to your face.

"I love Luna, and I respect her family very much, so I don\'t want to break your trust. Even though it was distasteful, I pray that you forgive me for my crudeness. Truth be told, I\'m not certain if I\'m ready to get married yet.

"However, just like how I wish to marry Lily, I am also serious in my desire to marry Luna and make her happy forever. So please, give us your blessings, not only in allowing Luna to come with me to Southshire but also your blessings for our eventual marriage in the future."

Having faced Ethan\'s sincerity, the Oswald Family couldn\'t help but look at each other. Although they didn\'t admit to it, what the young man said was right.

If he didn\'t want to offend their family, he could just have lied and told them that he would just take Luna to Southshire to meet her friends, as well as spend a short vacation there.

His honesty, which had made them feel uncomfortable earlier, now made them understand how serious he was with his intention of spending his life with Luna.

"Well, if you put it in that manner, then how about we talk about when you plan to marry my granddaughter, hmmm?" Rhea arched an eyebrow. "So when\'s the wedding date?"

"After we graduate from Brynhildr Academy," Ethan replied. "But if you want me to marry her sooner, I also don\'t mind doing so. However, like I said, I feel like I\'m not mature enough to marry someone.

"Even my marriage with Lily is something I feel like I\'m not prepared to face just yet. However, as a man, I gave my promise to her father that I would come to visit her in Southshire and seal the deal between Lily and me.

"I don\'t plan to run away, and I will take responsibility for my actions. In your eyes, I might still be a brat who is still wet in the ears, and I agree with you.

"But perhaps, taking this step will allow me to understand the weight of sharing forever with someone, which would allow me to know what it feels like to start a family."

Ethan then glanced at Lilian, who was listening to him with a serious expression on her face.

"It is not only Luna whom I plan to marry," Ethan added. "I also plan to marry Lilian, Chloe, Emma, and Lilith. Truth be told, I thought that I was only going to love and marry a single person in my lifetime.

"That\'s what I believed while growing up. I didn\'t know the customs of nobles, nor did I know their etiquette. But one thing is clear. I will never let go of any of my lovers, and I will fight the world if they plan to take them away from me."

At that moment, the power of Faith that was being assimilated by Ethan\'s body, suddenly flared up, making everyone in the room feel a force that brushed past them in the span of a heartbeat.

The Legacy of Rivers and Lakes within Lilian\'s body reacted to the changes in Ethan\'s body, causing a faint ripple of magic power to spread with her at its center.

Philip and Gilbert, who had sensed this faint ripple, couldn\'t help but widen their eyes in shock because they were familiar with this phenomenon.

Legacy Resonance.

It was something that happened when two Legacies highly compatible with each other appeared at the same time and place.

When these two Legacy Wielders fought side-by-side, a phenomenon called Legacy Resonance manifested.

Simply put, a complete resonance was a Wizard\'s lifetime achievement by combining their Origin and Core Magic together.

This alone made those who could wield its power move unhindered anywhere.

Professor Rinehart was someone that people didn\'t want to cross because he was one of the handful of people who were able to use a Complete Resonance, which could destroy entire cities in less than a minute.

But Legacy Resonance was stronger and more deadly than Complete Resonance.

Because when the wielders of compatible Legacies activate their Domain, they would be able to overwhelm even a Colossi, which was considered one of the strongest beings in the world.

Gilbert felt conflicted after sensing this rare phenomenon, which he had only seen twice in his lifetime.

He only knew that his granddaughter decided to quit her studies at Nightfall Academy and transfer to Brynhildr Academy to be with Ethan a week after it happened.

At that time, he thought that Lilian was just being foolish because she was chasing a young man, who had been her first crush.

He decided that after Lilian came to know that Ethan wasn\'t the person she thought he was, she would be disillusioned and return to Nightfall Academy.

Although it would cause some problems, Gilbert was willing to apologize to Nero, who was the Headmaster of Nightfall Academy for his granddaughter\'s reckless action.

However, not only did Lilian continue to stay in Brynhildr Academy, but her feelings for Ethan were reciprocated.

Gilbert thought that this was just his granddaughter\'s rebellious phase, which most young people went through during their teenage years.

But now, he finally understood.

Lilian didn\'t only chase after Ethan because she was in love with him.

Her Legacy was also in love with his Legacy, which was why the young man had captured his granddaughter\'s body and heart.

\'This is going to get troublesome really soon,\' Gilbert sighed in his heart because now that he discovered this matter, it would be difficult for him to turn a blind eye to it.

After careful consideration, he made a decision to tell Lilian\'s parents about this matter, which would definitely have an impact on Lilian\'s and Ethan\'s future.
