Chapter 877: The Taste Of Origin Magic [Part 4]
This was the first time that Samantha had been kissed by a boy, and she thought that it was the sweetest thing that she had tasted in her life.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she and almost all the young Witches of Brynhildr Academy had a crush on Ethan.
A year ago, the young man was a weak Dud who fought with gritted teeth against Zombies during the Initiation Ceremony. Since then, she had watched him transform into the powerhouse he was today.
Just like her, many Wizards and Witches weren't aware of how he was able to use magic.
There were days when he could use magic and days when he couldn't.
Some even believed that his magic had some kind of condition that needed to be met before it could be used, similar to Luna's Moon Magic, which only activated on the days of the Full Moon.
Although she wasn't smart, she soon realized the real reason why Ethan asked her for a kiss.
When their lips finally parted, the two stared at each other for a while and Samantha came to a conclusion.
Ethan could only use his magic if he kissed a Witch.
She didn't know if this theory of hers was the truth or not, but she felt that this was indeed the
case.
Unfortunately, when she saw the young man close his eyes, she knew then and there that the condition for him to use his magic had not been met.
The reason?
She no longer possessed any magic in her body.
All of it had been used to form the Origin Magic Crystal shining in her chest.
"Thank you," Ethan said before planting a kiss on Samantha's forehead. "I'll protect you no matter what."
Rising to face the Witch of Twilight, Ethan took a deep breath before taking a deck of cards from his storage ring.
He already knew that he might not be able to gain any magic from kissing Samantha, but he still had to try because their lives hung in the balance.
"Seeing the two of you makes me feel young again," Sofia said before giggling. "Are you sure you just want to kiss her once? I don't mind letting you kiss her a few times. There's no rush. We have plenty of time."
The Black Cauldron had already left the cottage and was flying at great speed, making sure to evade any pursuers.
This was the reason why Sofia was confident that everything was under her control, and why she was taking her time to win Ethan to her side without hurting him.
'I have only one chance,' Ethan thought as he summoned a second deck of cards from his storage ring.
Rune Magic.
This was one of Ethan's Trump Cards, which he had decided to use as a last resort if there ever came a time when he was unable to use Magic.
He knew that this attack would only work once, so instead of a single deck, he decided to use two and finish Sofia off in one strike.
"What's the deal with those cards, hmm?" Sofia smirked. "You want to play a game of strip poker with me? You naughty bo-"
Sofia wasn't able to finish whatever she was going to say because Ethan suddenly threw the two decks of cards in her direction.
The deck of cards scattered, creating a formation that encircled Sofia.
A second later, the entire world was covered by a blinding light, followed by a thunderous
roar.
After throwing the two decks of cards, Ethan immediately used his body to hug Samantha and shield her from the aftermath of his Rune Magic, Thunderbolt Carnage.
When the light receded, Ethan turned back and saw the Witch of Twilight, panting on the ground, with white smoke oozing from her body.
There were minor burn marks on her body, and her clothes were now in tatters. Even so, a smile bloomed on her face after she regained her composure.
"You're really full of surprises, Mr. Prince."
Instead of being angry, Sofia even managed to say those words in a playful tone.
The injuries she received healed at a rapid pace, and with a snap of her finger, she was once again dressed, but this time in very revealing clothes, leaving little to the imagination. "Duds these days sure have found many interesting tricks to cope with their lack of Magic. I am very impressed. That kind of firepower is enough to annihilate a dozen Rogue Wizards and Witches.
"Unfortunately, I am no ordinary Rogue Witch, Ethan. I am someone who possesses dozens of Origin Magics. Two of them happen to hold the ability to create a barrier that protects me at all times and regenerates my injuries at a fast pace.
"Now you see? With so many Origin Magics in my possession, something like that is not enough to kill me."
Ethan wasn't fazed and took out two more decks from his storage ring. But when he was about to throw them at Sofia, he stopped midway because the Witches, who had their Origin Magic taken from them, stood in front of Sofia to protect her.
"Coward," Ethan said. "Don't use them as shields!"
"Ethan, My Dear, this isn't a magical duel," Sofia replied. "I don't know what kind of tricks you still have in your possession, but I've decided to no longer underestimate you. I am a Dud like you, so I know that when pushed to a corner, we can do things that we normally couldn't do. For example... eat the Origin Magic of others."
Gritting his teeth, Ethan weighed his options.
He had tried to summon Dainsleif to his side, but it seemed that something was preventing it from happening.
The young man also couldn't summon his weapons, as if there was a law that prevented them from taking form.
The only thing he could use was the items inside his storage ring.
"Ethan, surrender while I'm still being nice," Sofia said as she raised her hand. "Or your sweetheart is going to suffer."
Samantha, who was supposed to be behind Ethan, was currently floating beside Sofia.
"I've been very lenient, but if you still wish to fight, then I will have no choice but to..."
Sofia used her finger to poke the Green Crystal on Samantha's chest, making the young lady
shudder.
"Cease your resistance or else," Sofia ordered with a smile.
Ethan weighed his options before throwing the deck of cards on the ground in front of him.
He wanted Sofia to lower her guard so that he could take action. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
However, Sofia had become more cautious after Ethan's display of power.
"Take those cards," Sofia ordered two young ladies, who had become her human shields.
The two girls, who were now completely under her control, walked toward Ethan and picked up the cards he had dropped on the ground.
After making sure that all of the cards were in their possession, Sofia snapped her fingers and made the cards float in the air before bursting into flames.
"Take his rings and strip him," Sofia commanded. "Remove everything until the only thing he's left with is his birthday suit."
Ethan's face became grim because he had already expected something like this to happen.
But right now, there was really nothing he could do, unless he wanted to sacrifice Samantha and the other innocent witches who were at Sofia's mercy.
The Witch of Twilight watched as Ethan didn't resist being stripped down by the Witches until
nothing was left.
"Oh my... I caught a big fish," Sofia chuckled as she admired Ethan's body which made her
body feel hot and bothered.
Then as a final touch, she pointed her wand at Ethan.
"Impediendum!"
An orange ray collided with Ethan's chest, paralyzing his entire body.
When she was certain that Ethan was truly and rightfully subjugated, a villainous laughter
escaped her lips, because now, the real show was about to start.
