Novel Full Chapter 460 Sir Ethan, What Kind Of Lady Do You Like?
“Congratulations, step sister of mine,” Luca said with a smile. “To think that you are the first among our family whom His Majesty would recognize as a knight. This is quite an achievement. I’m very proud of you.”
“Oh, please,” Nicole replied. “Both of us know that you don’t mean what you’re saying, Luca.”
“Oh, but I do.” Luca smirked. “You know me, step sister. I do not burn bridges with anyone who has the potential to reach greater heights.”
After leaving Otto City to escape the Dungeon Outbreak, Luca had lost his qualifications to continue the Heir Wars.
Even so, he didn’t regret it one bit.
For him, the Heir Wars were only a waste of time since there was no way that he could beat the two monsters, who were considered Prodigies by the Asta Family.
However, after he heard the news that Nicole and Ethan had successfully defended the city, his impression of his step sister, as well as the handsome young man accompanying her, had changed.
He was certain that even the two prodigies of their Family would not have been capable of fighting off a dungeon outbreak and live to tell the tale.
But since Nicole had done just that, Luca, as well as the other members of the Asta Family, had no choice but to re-evaluate her, making her a top contender for winning the Heir Wars.
Luca then moved closer to Nicole and whispered something in her ear.
“Sir Ethan is a good teammate,” Luca whispered. “Make sure that he isn’t poached away before the Heir Wars end. Who knows? With him by your side, you might just make it to the finals of the war. Vladimir and Constantine are both here today. I’m sure they are feeling vexed that you managed to become an Honorary Knight before them.”
Luca took a few steps back before giving Nicole a respectful bow, making the young lady look at him with a calm gaze.
She knew full well what Luca was like, so she knew that he was telling the truth when he said that he didn’t want to burn bridges with her.
Seeing her expression, Luca chuckled before using his thumb to point at his right side.
Nicole followed the direction where her stepbrother was pointing and saw two people, who were also looking in her direction.
They were none other than Vladimir Asta and Constantine Asta.
The two prodigies of the Asta Family, whom they believed had the highest chances of winning the Heir Wars and becoming the next head of the Asta Family.
Nicole looked at the oldest of the two, Vladimir, and held his gaze.
The young man, who had turned 23 years old this year, looked very dashing in his black suit.
His dark brown hair was styled properly, and his green eyes looked at Nicole with amusement.
As someone who frequently joined the Raiding Teams of the Magistratus to apprehend Rogue Wizards and Witches, his power and influence needed no introductions.
Although Nicole was now an Honorary Knight, this wasn’t a big deal to him because a Magistratus held more clout than a mere Knight of the Kingdom.
Nicole could tell that Vladimir was still looking down on her, but she didn’t mind it.
She then shifted her attention to Constantine Asta.
This young Wizard specialized in Gravity Magic, making him an extremely dangerous opponent.
Even Vladimir wasn’t confident that he would win a direct confrontation with Constantine because he was that dangerous of an individual.
Constantine had short blonde hair and gray eyes. There were rumors that he gained his expertise in Gravity Magic after getting his hands on a Legacy.
Of course, whether this was true or not, no one was able to confirm it.
The only thing they did know was that he was a very competent Wizard and that he was one of the two people whom everyone believed had a high chance of winning the Heir Wars.
These two people were Nicole’s competitors, but aside from them, there were other people—like Luca—within their family who had also been chosen to participate in the Heir Wars.
Although they weren’t as popular and as powerful as Vladimir and Constantine, they were still chosen to become candidates for a reason.
Nicole had no intention of underestimating anyone from the Asta Family because she knew full well what kind of rigorous training all of them had been through since they were children.
After taking a good, long look at her two competitors, Nicole shifted her attention to Ethan and was unable to stop the smile from creeping onto her face.
The handsome young man was currently surrounded by Noble Ladies, with some of them even pressing their bodies against him.
But if they were hoping that Ethan would be flustered and blush due to their womanly charms, all of them were bound to be disappointed.
Ethan calmly dealt with each and every one of them, keeping a smile on his face.His maturity and exceptional good looks made him more endearing in the eyes of the Noble Ladies, who were looking for a good partner to marry.
“Sir Ethan, what kind of lady do you like?” a pretty young lady with long brown hair asked with a smile.
“Someone who breaks the necks of people with a smile on her face,” Ethan replied calmly, making all the Noble Ladies giggle.
“Sir Ethan, you have a good sense of humor,” a lady who was in her early twenties commented.
“That’s right! It was a good joke,” another lady stated. “So what kind of girl do you like?”
Ethan gently pried the hands of the young lady, who had wrapped her arms around his shoulder and was pressing her breasts against him, away.
“I like someone who can use Moon Magic,” Ethan replied.
“Moon Magic? That is a very rare magic. Does Sir Ethan plan to live his life as a bachelor? That would be a waste.”
“Right. Even though I can’t use Moon Magic, I know other kinds of magic, especially magic that can be used in the bedroom at night.”
“I also know many kinds of Magic, Sir Ethan. How about you spar with me? I’m sure that you will be pleasantly surprised by my abilities.”
Ethan politely rejected the invitation for a sparring match and once again pried the hand of a naughty young lady, who had subtly touched his thighs when no one was looking, away.
Lilith, who was hiding in Ethan’s shadow, was fighting the strong urge to leap out and scratch the faces of the annoying ladies, who were doing their best to ingratiate themselves with her Master.
Just as Ethan was about to extricate himself from the Noble Ladies who wanted him to meet their families, the sound of music began to spread in the surroundings.
“Excuse me ladies, but I have an appointment for my first dance,” Ethan said politely before walking toward Nicole, who was giving him the “did you have fun?” gaze.
The two of them decided to share the first dance together as a way to escape from the people who were planning to socialize with them.
Aside from Nicole, Ethan had also promised to dance with Princess Evangeline later, allowing him to escape the pursuit of the other ladies who also wanted to dance with him.
King Austen, Queen Evane, and Lord Edmond looked at the young man with amused looks on their faces.
All of them knew that Ethan was a commoner and wanted to see his reaction after getting swarmed by the Noble Ladies.
However, they didn’t see the reaction they were looking for.
Ethan had remained calm and dealt with the ladies appropriately, not even giving them an inch despite how hard they tried to catch his attention.
“Well, what do you think?” Queen Evane asked.
“I think I need to observe him more,” King Austen replied, making the Grand Archmage and the Queen of Eastshire snort at the same time.
Clearly, the King wasn’t being honest with them, but since he didn’t want to admit it, they just let him be and continued to observe the young man, who was currently dancing with Nicole on the dance floor.
