Chapter 642 I Won’t Forgive You
‘It’s good that they’re living peaceful lives,’ Ethan thought as he observed the City of Zentris through the eyes of dozens of water butterflies that he created to fly over the city.
Since they weren’t that big, they weren’t noticed by the tribes that were living their everyday lives, unaware that the young man who disappeared with his wife half a year ago had returned to check on their current conditions.
‘You’re such a worrywart,’ Sebastian replied. ‘Before we left, I made sure to place a form of protection around the city. It will hold up for at least two hundred years, so they will be safe until then.’
Ethan smiled and decided to return to the Magdar Kingdom because his purpose for coming had already been achieved.
In order to prevent anyone from seeing him, he decided to dive deep in the sea and travel underwater until he reached his destination.
However, it wasn’t even five minutes since he entered the water when he sensed a magical fluctuation behind him.
Ethan decisively looked back to see what was happening, and saw countless Water Snakes headed in his direction.
The young man didn’t bat an eye and summoned his own Water Snakes to attack those who were targeting him.
A moment later, his sixth sense picked up something, forcing him to move to his right side.
Suddenly, a blue beam of light, like a laser beam, passed harmlessly by his right side.
If he was a second late then he might have gotten hit by that attack, which he believed was highly pressurized water, fired at a speed that could cut through diamonds.
‘Where is it coming from?’ Ethan thought as he extended his senses, trying to detect where the person, who was attacking him, was located.
Since they were at the sea, it didn’t take long for him to realize that his enemy was over two miles away from his location, which greatly surprised him.
Ethan shot through the water like a torpedo with the intention of catching whoever was attacking him from a distance.
However, his attacker immediately understood what he was planning, so they retreated, while firing high-pressurized water beams that even Ethan had to avoid at all cost.
But as he evaded, and pursued his target, he realized that his opponent was not any less faster than him.
Even as he sped through underwater, his attacker was just as fast, and perhaps, even faster, which made his expression turn solemn.
Not wanting to let his enemy escape, Ethan pointed his Sea God’s Trident in their direction with determination.
“Grand Aria!”
The sea answered his call, and created an invisible border, preventing anyone from getting in or getting out.
A thunderstorm appeared above the sea, ready to smite his Master’s enemy the moment they surfaced above the water.
At that moment, a song reverberated in the surroundings, which made Ethan’s, Sebastian’s, and his Other Half’s eyes widen in shock.
‘… it couldn’t be,’ Ethan thought.
‘Possibly…,’ Sebastian commented.
‘Her, right?’ Ethan’s Other Half concluded.
The song continued to spread in the surroundings, but Ethan was unaffected by it.
He had tried to summon his wand because he wanted to test something, but his wand didn’t answer his call.
It was as if the wand was hiding, and didn’t want to be held by its Master at this point in time.
‘Heh~ this is very funny,’ Sebastian chuckled after sensing Ethan’s frustration.
‘Small world.’ Ethan’s Other Half nodded his head in agreement.
Ethan ignored the comments of the two members of his peanut gallery and stared straight ahead.
Half a minute later, his gaze landed at an extremely beautiful young lady with deep blue hair, and eyes who was looking at him with the intention to kill.
Her upper half was bare for him to see, as for her lower part? It ended in a rainbow-colored fish tail from her waist down.
She looked like a young lady in her late teens, and the gaze she gave Ethan made him subconsciously grit his teeth because seeing her angry expression, which was directed to him, made his heart ache.
“I won’t forgive you,” the mermaid said coldly as the power of the sea gathered around her body. “How dare you take something important from me?!”
The young mermaid then unleashed countless beams of water, ready to turn Ethan’s body into a bloody corpse.
Ethan still hadn’t mastered the technique to use such a skill, so he decided to play it safe and block the attacks with a water barrier that had been compressed to its limits.
Sebastian, who was watching the battle, decided to momentarily pause his mission to gather enough magic energy to open the portal, which would take Ethan and his sister, Joanne back home.
‘I’ll help!’ Sebastian declared. ‘Ethan, you have three choices. The first one is to knock her out, the second one is to fight her seriously, and the third one is to run away. You can’t afford to hold back in a battle against a Mermaid Princess.
‘She might look like a teenager in your eyes, but I believe that she’s over a hundred years old. They age like elves, and are nearly immortal. She lives, and breathes underwater, so her mastery of Water Magic surpasses yours right now. If you don’t plan to escape, then you need to fight seriously or you will die!’
Ethan, who had been backed to a corner, decided to try something else, and shouted with all of his might.
“Sing with me!” Ethan roared. “Illumina!”
The wand, who had been avoiding being summoned by Ethan earlier, appeared in front of him, and created a more powerful Water Barrier to protect him from the countless Water Beams, which seemed unending.
A beautiful voice echoed under the sea, as Illumina materialized from Ethan’s wand.
This time, it was the Mermaid Princess’ turn to become shocked because of what was happening in front of her.
Illumina sang a calming song, which made the Mermaid Princess stop her bombardment of the young man, who was being protected by someone who looked exactly like her.
Sensing that his opponent had finally calmed down, Ethan canceled the effect of his Domain, returning the sea to its calm state.
When Illumina’s song ended, a sigh escaped her lips before she swam towards the Mermaid Princess in front of her.
She only stopped when she was a meter away from the mermaid, who was looking at her with a complicated look on her beautiful face.
