Wizard World Irregular

Chapter 651 Trial Of The Heart [Part 1]

Joanne slowly opened her eyes, waking up feeling very refreshed.

It had been a while since she last had a nice long sleep, and truth be told, she didn’t even want to open her eyes at first because she felt too comfortable with the pillow she was hugging.

But it only took her a few seconds to realize that the “comfortable pillow” she was clinging to was not actually a pillow but her brother, making her instantly back away.

Her movement was done on reflex, so she had forgotten that she was on a bed, causing her to nearly fall off from it.

Fortunately, she was able to stop herself in time, making her pat her chest in relief.

However, that relief didn’t last long, fading the moment her gaze landed on the handsome young man who was sleeping on the same bed as her.

It was a bit late, but she also noticed Princess Ramona hugging Ethan. Her new friend was still sleeping soundly, with her head resting on the young man’s shoulder.

‘Good morning, sleepy head,’ Joanna’s Other Half greeted her in a teasing tone. ‘How was your rest? Your dream must have been so good. You've been hugging your brother all night long, unwilling to let him go.’

‘Y-You! Why didn’t you do anything?!’ Joanne asked her Other Half in disbelief. ‘Why did you allow him to sleep on the same bed as me?’

‘Why not?’ Joanne’s Other Half asked back. ‘Last night, Ramona invited brother—err Ethan to sleep with the two of you. Since she was very persistent, he reluctantly agreed to it. Who would have thought that you would treat him like a pillow and hug him all night?’

‘W-Why didn’t you wake me up?!’ Joanne stuttered. ‘I could have slept in a different room!’

‘Calm down, Joanne. He’s your brother, so why are you so against being together with him?’

‘I don’t recognize him as my brother.’

‘Hah~ you are a very stubborn girl.’

Joanne took out her wand, intending to toss Ethan off the bed to show her displeasure. But before she could do that, Princess Ramona opened her eyes and looked at her surroundings in a daze.

The first sight that entered the Princess’ eyes was none other than the view of the handsome young man, making all the sleepiness in her body instantly disappear.

The next one she saw was Joanne, who was holding a wand in her hand, looking like she was about to cast a spell.

When the Princess looked in her direction, the young lady only clicked her tongue, regretting that she missed her opportunity for payback.

“Good Morning, Joanne,” Princess Ramona greeted with a sweet smile on her face. “You slept so soundly last night. How about the three of us always sleep together from now on?”

“No way!” Joanne replied in a heartbeat. “I’m not going to sleep with this guy even if he is the last man in the world.”

“Eh? But yesterday, you even kissed Ethan’s cheek and said ‘Goodnight, Big Brother’ before we slept together,” Princess Ramona said in confusion.

The Princess even used that opportunity to also ask for a goodnight kiss from Ethan, making her have a very happy and sweet dream.

“I-I kissed him and told him good night?!” Joanne became flustered, but it only took her a few seconds to realize what just happened.

She then asked her Other Half if she really did what the Princess said she did, and the only reply she got was a giggle, making Ethan’s sister storm out of the room with a beet-red face, slamming the door behind her.

Finally, Ethan opened his eyes before scratching his head.

He had woken up just as the two girls started chatting with each other. However, since he felt that it was not the right time to wake up, he kept his eyes closed and quietly listened to their conversation.

“Good morning, Ethan,” Princess Ramona greeted.

“Good morning, Ramona,” Ethan replied.

“Joanne seems to have forgotten what happened last night.” Princess Ramona sighed. “It’s really a shame though. The two of you acting like brother and sister made me think that you finally closed the distance between the two of you. I wonder what happened? Did she drink some wine yesterday, making her act that way?”

Hearing that, the young man was very tempted to answer that the Joanne who sat on his lap yesterday was different from the Joanne of today.

But since it would be troublesome to explain things, he decided to change the topic, saying that he would wash up in his own bedroom before they had breakfast together.

Meanwhile, inside a guest room, which was originally Joanne’s personal room in Princess Ramona’s residence, Ethan’s sister was glaring at her reflection in the mirror.

‘You have a lot of explaining to do, you vixen!’ Joanne said, making her reflection stick out her tongue at her.

‘What explanation?’ Joanne’s Other Half replied. ‘I just acted like a proper sister to our brother. All I did was sit on his lap, kiss his cheek, and ask him to spoil me. That’s very normal, don't you think so?’

‘Normal, my butt!’ Joanne raised her small fist out of anger. ‘You did all that without my permission even when you know that I don’t like him! You traitor!’

‘Joanne, I think it’s about time to accept reality. Ethan is your brother, and no matter how hard you try to ignore it, the truth will not change.

‘I’m sure that your parents are already aware that he is undergoing his coming-of-age trial. Once he succeeds, they will definitely welcome him with open arms. Are you sure that you want to make your parents sad by saying that you hate and won’t recognize Ethan as your brother?’

When her parents were mentioned, Joanne held back the words that she was planning to say to her mischievous Other Half, who did things without her permission. 𝔣𝖗𝔢𝖊𝔴𝖊𝔟𝔫𝔬𝖛𝔢𝖑.𝔠𝔬𝔪

She loved her parents very much, and making them sad was the last thing that she wanted to do.

Her family was busy fighting in the Lands of Saraqael to safeguard Midgard from those who wished to invade it from another dimension.

And yet, their selfless acts and sacrifices were not known by the common people who were peacefully living their lives, oblivious to the fact that somewhere out there, several people were fighting and dying for their sake.
