Wizard World Irregular

Chapter 974: Sorry, I’m Just A Dud!



The students of Brynhildr Academy watched the battle from start to end.

By the time it was finished, all of them wondered if Ethan could still really be considered a Dud, given the overwhelming display of destructive power on the projection.

Even those who didn't think much of Ethan in the past and were refusing to admit that he was truly a powerful wizard shed all their doubts after seeing the battle.

Either way, all of them simply felt that this battle was way out their league, making them understand the difference between them and the young man, whom many ridiculed a year ago as a Dud.

Lily and Ethan's other lovers couldn't help but look at their beloved with pride.

They wanted to shout "That's my fiance!"

But none of them dared to do it.

The majority of the students looked at Lily, whom they knew was Ethan's wife.

Back then, many were shocked and in despair after knowing that their school idol had been married to the young man. But now, they could only say that Lily made the right choice in marrying him.

Since Chloe was seated beside Lily, people also gazed at the young lady, who was also Ethan's cousin.

Some believed that they were lovers, but after she distanced herself from Ethan, many thought that they had broken up.

Of course, not many knew the real reason why it happened.

However, she had been seen interacting with Ethan closely as of late, so they also believed that they had made up and re-established their relationship.

Samantha, on the other hand, was still unable to move on from seeing her boyfriend's drop dead gorgeous body. Especially when he rode the Giant Wave like a God of the Sea.

As everyone's mind continued basking in the aftermath of what they had watched, Professor Rinehart's voice spread inside the Colosseum.

"Your attention, please."

All the students looked at the center of the Arena, where their Headmaster was currently standing.

"This battle happened around five days ago," Professor Rinehart stated. "This means that the Fomorians are estimated to arrive on the shores of the Shire Continent in five to six days from

now.

"We were already aware that such an invasion was going to happen, but we hoped beyond hope that we were only being paranoid. Fortunately, all the Kingdoms of the Shire Continent have formed an alliance.

"They prepared for this war in advance. Even as we speak, the countless armies of Eastshire, Southshire, Westshire, and Northshire are headed to the Southern Shores of our continent with the intent to face the Fomorian threat.

"I'm sure you are worried about your families, so make sure to send them a letter about the current situation. Since this is a dark and dangerous time, we will allow all of you to return home if you wish.

"However, those who decide to stay in the academy, we promise that we will do our best to ensure your safety. Professor Barret will be heading to the battlefield, while I will stay in the academy to hold the fort.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"If ever the situation at the frontlines changes, I will notify all of you immediately. Know that whatever your decision ends up being, the academy will support it."

Professor Rinehart then gazed at the faces of his students with a calm expression on his face.

"Those who wish to participate in the war may stay here to register. Professor Barret will lead you to the battlefield tomorrow morning. But let me just make one thing clear. Only those who are confident in their skills will be allowed to join this enlistment."

Professor Rinehart then made a gesture for Professor Barret to take over and explain the current conditions for the enlistment.

"First Years are not allowed to participate in this war," Professor Barret declared, which made Joanne click her tongue.

She wanted to join her brother on the front lines and see the Fomorians up close. Fortunately, it didn't take long for Professor Barret to say something that made her very happy.

"Only the Pillars of the First Years will be allowed to enlist if they are willing," Professor Barret explained, which made Joanne and Princess Ramona look at each other with smiles on their faces.

Joanne simply wanted to join in the fun, while Princess Ramona wanted to see Ethan and help him as much as possible.

"Those who wish to enlist will have their qualifications checked through a spar with either the combat Professors of the Academy or the elite students of the academy, whose abilities have already gained the Headmaster's recognition.

"Please, don't treat this enlistment as a joke. You can lose your life in this battle. That is all that I want to say. Those who wish to join can come down into the arena."

As soon as that declaration was made, five witches summoned their Flying Brooms and flew towards the arena.

When these five young ladies landed beside Professor Barret, the Ex-Magistratus had the "I knew you guys will come" look on his face.

Joanne, Princess Ramona, Emma, Lilian, and Nicole didn't hesitate to enlist themselves for the battle.

A moment later, another figure arrived, and it was none other than Cedric.

He had already planned to go, but he first answered his friends who were asking if he was really going, delaying his arrival at the arena.

Luna, Chloe, and Samantha chose to remain because they were worried about Lily.

She was carrying Ethan's baby, so they needed to make sure that she would be safe no matter what.

Enzo, who was watching everything from the stands, made a mental note to divide the members of the Protector Clans that were in the Academy, as well as in Limeburgh Town.

He, alongside half of their forces, would accompany Joanne to the battlefield. The other half would monitor Lily because she was pregnant with their Young Master's child.

Since this was an important matter, Joanne and Emma didn't hide Lily's pregnancy from Enzo, which made the Old Catkin very happy.

The bloodline of the Valentin Family had never surpassed the number of fingers on both his

hands.

He hoped in the future that Ethan would make the lineage prosper, especially since he had many lovers whom he planned to marry as well.

"I'll also enlist!" George shouted as he made his way down the stands. "Coming through... please make way, I can't use a flying broom. Sorry, I'm just a Dud!"

The members of the Dud Manor looked at their Head Prefect as if he had a death wish.

Sabrina, who saw her lover approaching the arena, summoned her Flying Broom in order to

give him a lift.

"Are you sure you want to go there?" Sabrina asked as soon as George had sat properly behind

her back.

"I'm sure," George replied. "Don't stop me."

"I won't." Sabrina shook her head. "I'm coming with you, so don't stop me as well."

Seeing Sabrina's stubborn look, George knew that she wouldn't budge no matter what.

In the end, he could only reluctantly agree to her decision.

"Make sure to stay safe, okay?" George said. "I plan to marry you after you graduate from the

academy."

"Mmm." Sabrina nodded.

More and more students, including the elite students like Luna's brother, Rowan, also flew to

the arena.

Seeing this scene, Professor Barret couldn't help but sigh.

These students were the cream of the crop, and if they died in battle, it would be a great loss

to the Wizarding World.

However, he also understood that only those who would be baptized by the flames of war and survive would not only become the Pillars of the Academy, but Pillars of the Wizarding World

as well.
