Wizard World Irregular-Chapter 767: Ethan’s Undercover Mission [Part 1]

Since he was able to sleep for several hours, Ethan no longer felt the need to rest as much. He decided to share Dantalion's vision as the latter flew above the skies of Eastshire.

Although he wasn't asleep, that didn't mean that the two ladies beside him on the bed

weren't sound asleep.

Joanne, who had missed her brother while he was inside the painting, hugged his right side, while she slept.

Lilith, who was on his left side, was hugging him as well, the slow rise and fall of her chest telling him that she was deep in her sleep.

As the night continued to deepen, Dantalion's group encountered the robed individuals and engaged them in battle.

Ethan was caught by surprise when Dantalion transformed into a Winged Human, resembling that of an angel.

Dantalion, who knew that his Master was watching, chose to show the other party his true form so that the young man would know that he could depend on him if he ever needed his help. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

The young man watched the battle from start to finish and finally realized that the Ravens of Wizards and Witches were really no ordinary Ravens.

Until now, he only thought of their Spirit Guides as messengers who didn't have the power to deal with a threat such as this.

But now that his eyes were finally opened, he became more concerned because the unknown organization was successful in hunting some of the Ravens who had the power to defend themselves if need be.

Ethan saw the memories that Dantalion extracted from the robed individuals, and just like his Spirit Guide, he felt that there was something amiss.

They were without a doubt Milesians, but aside from someone giving them an order through a letter, they knew nothing else.

The organization the Robed Individuals belonged to was called The Order of the Black Hawk.

This was a Cult granted with powers by their Leader despite not being Wizards and Witches themselves.

Because of this, they had become very loyal followers to the point of becoming fanatics. The more they contributed to their Cult, the stronger the powers they would obtain.

This reminded Ethan of the Ratkin in the Magdar Kingdom, who had become Plague Rats due to the power of Erras, the Progenitor of Pestilence.

If this Cult was also working with a Progenitor, then it was definitely bad news.

'Did they perhaps discover my identity?' Ethan thought.

Although he didn't have the Valentin Family name, his feats in Eastshire, as well as the Shire Continent, were widespread.

There was a possibility that the Ravens of Brynhildr Academy were being targeted because of the school they belonged to.

Maybe, just maybe, they were trying to extract information from the Ravens about Ethan, whom their Leader had set their sights on.

'Don't jump to conclusions, Ethan,' Ethan's Other Half commented. 'It could all just be a coincidence. Maybe the Leader of this Cult has a history with Professor Rinehart. You already know that the Headmaster has many enemies.

'So, until we get to the bottom of this, you don't have to feel guilty about anything. In fact, I have a proposal to make.'

'What proposal?' Ethan inquired.

'After this incident, I'm sure that this organization might all leave the Shire Continent or simply go in hiding,' Ethan's Other Half replied. 'If that is the case, they will be more wary about targeting Ravens. However, that doesn't mean that they will stop completely.

'Maybe they will choose their fights more wisely, working to make sure that they do not leave any evidence behind. I think going into the field is a much better solution than staying here in the academy.

'Of course, you need to ask the Headmaster's permission. But Professor Rinehart already knows about your current strength, and knowing him, he might just give you that permission.'

Ethan's Other Half then proceeded to tell Ethan his plan, and the more he listened to it, the more he liked the idea.

'I understand why we need to get permission now,' Ethan thought. 'But I think, because of the situation, Professor Rinehart will give it to me.'

Ethan disconnected his connection with Dantalion and finally fell asleep as dawn approached.

He didn't need to worry about classes that morning because the Headmaster decided to suspend classes for a day. Some of the Professors, including Professor Barret, had followed their Ravens to scout the locations where their kind had been attacked.

This was a serious issue that they couldn't ignore.

This was especially true since the Ravens of Brynhildr Academy were very active and traveled almost every day to the places where their Masters needed them to go.

Ethan didn't know if the Professors encountered any of the robed people during their scouting mission, but the young man surely pitied the group that Professor Barret came across.

When Ethan woke up, it was already nine in the morning, and Joanne was no longer on the bed beside him.

Only Lilith remained. She was wide awake but had continued to hug him.

"Lilith, we're going to be busy for the next few days," Ethan said. "If I get permission from the Headmaster, the two of us will be leaving the academy for a while."

"Only the two of us?" Lilith asked.

"Yes," Ethan replied. "Only the two of us."

Seeing how serious Ethan was, the young lady asked what exactly he was planning to do.

Ethan didn't keep anything from her and even told her about the incident that involved

Dantalion's group.

"This is a brilliant idea." Lilith nodded. "But will the Headmaster give you permission?" "We'll find out later," Ethan answered as he stood up from the bed to change his clothes. "But if we do get permission, we will leave tonight. So if you need to do something, do it within the day because we will leave at sunset."

Lilith nodded in understanding before giving Ethan a kiss on the cheek.

"I need to talk with Enzo and the other Catkins first," Lilith replied. "They need to know this information as well so that they will not be worried if we end up disappearing for a long time."

The Old Catkin had become anxious when Ethan didn't return to the Manor after three days, so he went to talk to the Headmaster to ask about his Young Master's whereabouts. Fortunately, Lyle had informed Professor Rinehart that Ethan was currently inside the Painting of Enlightenment, which lowered the Catkins' anxiety, allowing them to continue doing their job within the academy.
