Novel Full Chapter 841: Let Bygones Be Bygones
Chapter 841: Let Bygones Be Bygones
It took Ethan an hour to fully recover from his injuries.
The purple cracks on his body had now disappeared, but he still felt as if he had exhausted all of his strength, making his body as heavy as lead.
If not for the fact that Sebastian and his Other Half were there to support his body, he might have already collapsed, unable to stand back up again.
“If I only look at the result of this battle, I would certainly say that you did well,” Queen Celestia said. “But if I am going to be perfectly honest, I can only say that you did a very stupid thing.
“If we weren’t here to help you, you would have died with your body breaking apart because it took a load that it wasn’t able to handle.”
Ethan smiled bitterly because he knew that the Water Fairy Queen was telling the truth. If they weren’t there to help him, he would have truly died.
But what other choice did he have?
In order to fight against the Progenitor of Magic, he would have to go all-out and risk his life. Otherwise, he would just die a dog’s death without the chance to fight back.
“As a reward for making me watch an entertaining scene, I’ll replenish the life force you’ve lost,” Ashmedai commented as he held Ethan’s hand. “Don’t do this again, okay? Once is enough for a lifetime.”
The young man felt something warm pass through the Progenitor’s hand to his hand, easing up the exhaustion that he was feeling.
Although his body still felt as heavy as lead, he was now able to breathe a little easier because of the life force that Ashmedai had shared with him.
“Ah! I almost forgot. Where are my manners?” Ashmedai said. “Let me introduce you to this standoffish guy beside me. He is Vlad, and he is Godfrey’s father. Do you know? I have to stop him from punching you silly for making his son suffer humiliation?”
“Shut up, Ashmedai,” Vlad replied icily. “Don’t make up stories that didn’t happen.”
Ashmedai only chuckled because he found Vlad’s reaction funny.
Ethan, on the other hand, didn’t dare to laugh because he was in the presence of the Vampire Progenitor, who might have a grudge against him after what the young man did to his son. “You don’t have to worry because I don’t find fault in the way that you handled my son,” Vlad stated. “It is also a good opportunity to give him a wake-up call. That way, he will stop being lazy and focus on recovering his strength. I’m also glad to see his desire to become stronger again.”
“That’s right, Ethan.” Ashmedai nodded. “You and Godfrey might fight alongside each other in the future, so it will be best to let bygones be bygones. If you like, I can even turn you into Ethel ‘permanently’ so that the two of you can become a couple.”
“No thanks, I’ll pass,” Ethan replied in a heartbeat, which made Ashmedai giggle.
“This pervert is really annoying.” Queen Celestia grimaced. “Why did my bloodline have to have a connection with this fool?”
“My condolences, Queen Celestia,” Vlad commented. “No one deserves to have this guy as their Patron.”
“Hey! The two of you are hurting my feelings, you know?” Ashmedai scoffed. “But I do find myself lucky to witness Ethan’s birth. After all, he is someone that anyone would love to get their hands on.”
Queen Celestia narrowed her eyes because she didn’t like the way Ashmedai was looking at Ethan.
Of course, she knew about the young man’s special characteristics, which also made her think that the jokes of the Patron of the Valentin Family had gone too far.
Perhaps seeing that Queen Celestia was just a step away from attacking him, Ashmedai decided to back off and raise both of his hands in surrender.
“I think it’s time for you to go back to the real world,” Vlad said. “Also, you don’t have to worry about Queen Celestia. She may say hurtful things, but she will not act on it. We have already had an agreement earlier.”
“Thank you, Lord Vlad and Queen Celestia, for your help,” Ethan replied.
“Hey, what about me?” Ashmedai asked as he pointed at himself. “I helped too, you know?”
Ethan ignored the Patron God of his family because he knew that paying attention to him would be a mistake.
“You can always count on me if you need help, Ethan,” Queen Celestia said. “Just like today. I’ll always be on your side.”
“Thank you,” Ethan replied gratefully.
He knew that the Water Fairy Queen meant the words, which made his chest feel warm because she truly cared for him.
After bidding his goodbye, Ethan finally returned to the real world.
To his surprise, he found himself standing on the cliff facing World’s End.
He was no longer inside Hecate’s Domain and his comrades were also safe by his side.
But before he could even do anything, Princess Ramona hugged him tightly, making Godfrey whistle from the side.
Ethan, who was unable to move his body properly, allowed the young lady to hug him.
Lilith, who seemed to understand Ethan’s current situation, hugged him from behind to support his body.
“Let me join!” Lyall, who was about to join and hug Ethan from the side, was grabbed by her brother, Conall, preventing her from doing what she wanted.
“Don’t ruin their moment,” Conall said as he looked at the young man, who had fought against the Progenitor inside his Domain.
When Lady Hecate returned to her domain, she told them that she didn’t want to see them again, so she snapped her fingers in anger.
A moment later, all of them found themselves outside of her domain, in the place where they were earlier.
Of course, Conall didn’t have any complaints.
He was even relieved that he managed to survive an encounter with a Progenitor. Besides, he could even brag about this to his siblings when he returned home from this adventure.
Godfrey eyed Ethan with a complicated gaze.
Unlike the young man, the Vampire Lord wouldn’t dare to face off against a Progenitor even if his father was one of them.
For him, it was a suicide mission, and yet, Ethan dared to do it because he wanted to save both of the ladies who had accompanied him to World’s End.
Although he was still angry at the young man for tricking him, he decided to let bygones be
bygones.
Godfrey didn’t like crazy people, especially people like Ethan, who just did something extremely stupid like fighting against a Progenitor.
For the time being, he concluded that being an enemy of such a person was not a good thing. With that, he decided to have a private talk with him at a later time to resolve all issues so that they wouldn’t clash against each other in the future.
His father had also subtly passed a message to him a few minutes ago that he should try to befriend Ethan since they might be seeing more of each other again.
Godfrey had always considered his father as a very wise person.
Since his father wanted him to form a connection with the young man, he would at least put some effort into making sure that they would not part ways with each other as enemies.
The Vampire Lord then glanced at the location where he saw a vortex briefly appear for a moment before sighing in his heart.
‘I hope that this is the last time I’ll come back to this place,’ Godfrey thought.
What he didn’t know was that the Progenitor of Magic was also hoping that she wouldn’t have to see his and Ethan’s face ever again.
