Strongest Warlock - Wizard World Irregular

Since that was the case, Ethan made sure to wash up a bit because he had sweat a lot during their combat training session with Professor Lionel.

After taking a quick shower, which made Lilith very happy, the young man headed straight toward the training grounds.

Just as he expected, the one waiting for him there wasn\'t Nicole.

However, it was still a beautiful lady, who immediately smiled the moment her eyes landed on her lover.

"Lilian," Ethan walked up towards her with a smile. "What are you doing here?"

Lilian gave Ethan a hug before standing on tiptoes to give him a quick peck on the cheek.

Among Ethan\'s lovers, she was the least shy about taking the initiative to kiss Ethan, especially when they were alone. However, she would never do that if they were out in public.

Ethan gave his lover a light hug and planted a kiss on her forehead.

He couldn\'t lie to himself any longer that being with Lilian made him feel very comfortable.

Whenever they were together, their Legacies would automatically synchronize and complement each other.

By doing so, their powers would slowly grow stronger, like Yin and Yang.

Always going around a cycle, like the changing of the seasons.

"I\'m here to teach you how to dance," Lilian answered. "Nicole already told me everything. So you\'re going to meet the King, huh? It seems that you did something that he recognized. Can you tell me about what you did? Nicole didn\'t tell me the details and just told me to ask you."

Ethan was still hugging the young lady in his arms, so he decided to tell her everything.

However, instead of saying it out loud, he recounted everything that happened slowly, like a whisper. Lilian rested her head on his chest and allowed Ethan\'s soothing voice to serenade her ear with his story.

When he finished telling her everything, Lilian suddenly pouted.

"I wish you had taken me with you," Lilian said with a pout. "If I were there, the two of us would have made short work of those Dungeon Monsters!"

Ethan smirked and cupped his pouting lover\'s face.

"Yes, I\'m sure that we could have dealt with them easier if you were there," Ethan replied.

"Right?" Lilian raised her chin, as she looked straight at Ethan\'s blue eyes, which were the color of the sky and the sea.

"How about we go on a picnic this weekend, so I can make up with you?"

"Are you trying to butter me up? Because I will tell you now, it\'s working."

The two then shared a few soft and sweet kisses before Lilian pulled back and offered her hand to Ethan.

"The break is over," Lilian said. "Now, let\'s dance. I\'m going to be very strict, so prepare yourself."

"Yes, Professor Lilian," Ethan replied with a smirk.

The first thing that Lilian did was to teach Ethan the proper posture in dancing.

"Stand tall, stand proud, and puff up your chest like the handsome young man that you are," Lilian stated. "If you radiate a presence of confidence, your dance partner will feel more at ease because they would subconsciously think that they are in safe hands.

"All noble ladies are taught how to dance. For most people, dancing is an art, but for aristocrats, it\'s a way to form and build connections. So, knowing how to dance will make them think that you are competent enough to be a business partner or an ally."

"That\'s weird," Ethan replied.

"Nobles are a weird bunch. Get used to it." Lilian winked.

"You\'re also a Noble, right?" Ethan inquired. "Did you just call yourself weird?"

"Nobles are Humans too," Lilian countered. "But let\'s not focus on them for the time being. Let\'s focus on dancing. Now, you need to hold my hand like this and place your other hand just below my shoulder blade, like so.

"Your grasp must be firm, but not tight.

"Ladies are delicate creatures, so you should handle them with care."

"Yes, Ma\'am."

"Good. You are a fast learner, 6 points."

Ethan had an amused look on his face after being graded by Lilian.

After they had mastered the proper posture, as well as the proper way to hold their partner, the young lady took out her wand and drew a square on the ground.

"Let\'s not do anything complicated right now," Lilian stated. "We will do a slow dance first. Remember this, Ethan, it will always be the man who takes the lead. Of course, the ladies can also take the lead, but this happens very rarely.

"If a Noble lady takes the lead in a dance, that either means that the man isn\'t proficient enough to lead her, or she wants to exert her dominance over him. It\'s their subtle way of saying that they are better than their partner, so take note of this as well.

"Although I\'m sure that you won\'t mind if we, your lovers, take the lead in a dance, in the eyes of Nobles, this can be seen as a sign of weakness. The last thing you want to show them is a sign of weakness.

"So, you must be confident even if you are not that good at dancing. Confidence is attractive, and my Ethan is the most attractive young man in Eastshire."

Ethan couldn\'t help but smile as Lilian clapped her hands together while he stepped onto the square, following the marker under his feet as he practiced the waltz.

"One, two, three. One, two, three," Lilian rhythmically counted as she continued to clap her hands. "One, two, three. One, two, three. Good, you\'re doing good."

Sebastian and Ethan\'s Other Half joined the young lady, as they, too, clapped inside his Sea of Consciousness, while saying "One, two, three" as well.

Ethan thought that dancing was boring, but the more he practiced, the more he realized that given the right partner and environment, dancing could be fun as well.
