Strongest Warlock - Wizard World Irregular

To everyone's surprise, Ethan, and Chloe were the two people that caught a lot more than the others. Of course, this contributed to their many years of experience in fishing whenever they went out camping with the young man's Grandfather every summer.

As they busied themselves with cleaning the fishes and putting them on skewers to be barbecued they talked about the latest news in the magical world.

No one mentioned Koko's arrival at their camp last night because they were afraid that the White-Haired Gorilla was within the vicinity, and was silently listening to their chat.

"The Asta Family is composed of many talented Magic Knights," Noah stated. "If I remember correctly, Nicole's father was also a very famous Magistratus when he was still on active duty."

"I'm sure he is very proud to have a daughter as talented as Nicole," Ethan commented.

"True, but did you know that Nicole is actually the Fourth Daughter of her father?" Noah smirked. "Her father has two wives, which were said to be his sweethearts when he was still studying here in Brynhildr Academy."

"Eh? Two wives?" Ethan blinked in confusion. "He has more than one?"

"That's the privilege of nobles, and those with great influence and popularity," Noah replied. "I know a Duke who actually has three wives. Right now, he is living his life to the fullest surrounded by his grandchildren."

Chloe, who was listening to Noah's words, glanced at her cousin and frowned.

"Since you are not a noble, not influential, and not popular, it is best that you don't follow in their footsteps," Chloe stated. "If you want to have a lover, you must make sure that she is kind, understanding, loyal, and specializes in Fire Magic."

"Um, why Fire Magic to be exact?" Ethan asked out of curiosity.

"So she can cook for you anytime, and make sure you're warm and happy."

"Then, do you know any Witches who specialize in Fire Magic? How about you introduce them to me?"

"I think someone who knows Moon Magic is good as well," Luna interjected. "They can do a lot of things that other branches of Magic cannot do."

Chloe glanced at the angelic lady with reddish-pink hair with a smile. Although she was smiling, deep inside she felt alarmed because her handsome cousin was starting to attract the bees in the surroundings.

"If you know someone with Moon Magic, make sure to introduce them to me, Luna." Ethan grinned. "I'm sure that we will get along quite well."

Henry and the older guys in the camp gave Ethan a thumbs up in their hearts.

They could tell that Ethan was just playing along, but he was doing it so smoothly, which was something they couldn't do so easily.

This was especially true when interacting with two beautiful Witches, just like Chloe, and Luna.

'This guy is a menace to the girls in the academy.'

Chloe, Luna, and the girls of Dud Manor thought at the same time.

Ethan was very friendly, warm, and quite good looking, which was something that almost all Witches looked for in a husband in the Academy. If not for the fact that Ethan was a Dud, there would be more Witches paying attention to him.

In the Magical World, the strength of one's magic was important. Because of this, some powerful families usually promoted arranged marriages between their families to ensure that their offspring would become powerful Wizards and Witches when they were born.

Simply put, Magical Power came first and looks second when it came to finding a good husband or wife in the Magical World.

"Okay, guys, listen up," Henry said, catching everyone's attention. "I just received word from another Head Prefect that the results of the Professors' meeting have ended. According to her, the Headmaster and the Professors have agreed on three things.

"The first one was that the Exhibition Match between Manors will be moved three months from now. According to my informant, there were some issues that needed to be ironed out, like the prizes that will be awarded to the winners.

"The second thing that they agreed upon is the start of the Practical Tests, where you can take missions that can be completed outside the academy to earn Merit Points. The Mission Hall will open a month from now, so you better prepare yourselves for it. As for the last announcement…"

Henry gave everyone a serious gaze before saying the last part of the announcement.

"The Chesmire Cat has been sighted on the Academy grounds," Henry stated.

The expressions of the Second, Third, and Fourth Years became just as serious as Henry's when they heard his announcement.

Only Ethan, and Chloe were clueless about what the Chesmire Cat symbolized, which made Henry sigh.

"Since the two of you just arrived at the Academy, I will tell you the details of the Chesmire Cat," Henry said. "The Chesmire Cat is a chubby black cat, with purple eyes. It can appear and disappear out of thin air and if it doesn't want to be found, no one in the Academy can find it.

"Even the Headmaster, and the other Professors are unable to capture it, and even if they did, no cage, be it physical or magical, could actually detain it. It's one of the Seven Mysteries of the Academy.

"This chubby black cat can also talk, which makes it a very intelligent creature. However, there has been more than one occasion when the Chesmire Cat has caused trouble for Wizards and Witches by telling them to do things, or sending them on a wild goose chase, accomplishing nothing in the end."

Luna, who was seated beside Ethan lightly cleared her throat before speaking her mind.

"Although Chessy is a trickster, and likes to play pranks on people, there are also occasions when it helps people in need.

"It also likes to give quests or trials to people, which doesn't necessarily end in a wild goose chase. There had been a handful of people that managed to get powerful Magical Artifacts after accepting its missions."

Ethan glanced at the angelic beauty and asked her the question that popped inside his head.

"Have you met the Chesmire Cat?" Ethan asked. "You seem to know a lot about it."

Luna nodded. "Last year, it suddenly appeared in front of me and said that if I go to this place, I would meet the person I wanted to meet the most. I did as it told me and actually met…"

The angelic beauty managed to stop herself in time before divulging who she met after listening to the Chesmire Cat's words.

"Still, make no mistake," Luna continued her explanation after regaining her composure. "After that one incident, Chessy asked me to do some quests, which didn't end well. There is a saying in the Academy that you can only trust one out of ten words that the chubby black cat tells you. It is a Prankster at heart, and tells more lies than it speaks the truth.

So, you better not take everything it says seriously."

Henry nodded. "This is why if it ever appears in front of you, don't trust it completely. Some believed that it is a powerful demon trapped in a cat's body. The Academy only tolerates its existence because no student had suffered any grievous injuries from its pranks."

Ethan and Chloe frowned after learning more about the mischievous chubby black cat of Brynhildr Academy.

The more they heard about it, the more they felt that meeting the cat named Chessy would do them more harm than good.
