Wizard World Irregular-Chapter 485 The First Pact [Part 3]

“My power focuses more on strength, domination, and trickery,” the Purple Flame stated.

“If you make a pact with me, you will be able to create illusions that look very real. You can even send your enemies into an illusionary world, where they will live the rest of their lives unable to tell between illusion and reality.

“You can even create clones of yourself and see the world in their eyes. They are perfect for scouting missions, which is something that Vincent and your father always use in battle. With your current strength, you will be able to create as many as four copies of yourself.

“I don’t want to brag, but when it comes to strength, the power you will gain from me is stronger than the boost you get by holding your Sea God’s Trident. Not only that, your stamina will increase by leaps and bounds, allowing you to tumble with your lovers on the bed from morning till night, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

“In fact, even if you don’t rest, you will still be able to function normally because of your increased stamina. Also, the duration of how long your magic power lasts will increase, allowing you to retain, and absorb more power from the people that you kiss.

“Even if your magical circuits are destroyed, it is possible to recharge your magic power indefinitely. Just think about it—as long as you have one Witch by your side, you can just kiss them when you run out of power and fight again, using them as a rechargeable battery. Isn’t that fantastic?

“Lastly, these benefits that I am telling you are only the first three stages of your Origin Magic. Just like Legacies, Origin Magic also has five stages. As for the Fourth and Fifth Stages… you are still not strong enough to handle them, so it is still too early to discuss them right now.”

Ethan pondered for a bit after hearing the Purple Flame’s offer.

Just like Vincent had told him earlier, the offer was simply too good to be true.

All of these benefits that the Purple Flame mentioned were all very helpful to Ethan.

If not for the fact that Vincent greatly advised him to not listen to temptations, he would have definitely made a pact with the Purple Flame right there, right now.

“What’s the catch?” Ethan asked out of curiosity. “These powers are too good to be true. There must be some kind of downside to it, right?”

“Downside?” the Purple Flame chuckled. “I don’t know about this downside you speak of. However, you’re right. My offer is simply too good to be true, so there are restrictions and limitations. But I assure you that you won’t have a problem with them.

“First and foremost, once you gain my power, you will need to regularly absorb the essence of your lovers,” the Purple Flame stated. “You will be able to do this whenever you embrace them. They will feel a bit lethargic, but it is something that can easily be solved by a good night’s rest after you make love to them.

“Also, my power is different from the magical reserves you have. In short, you can use my magic even if you run out of magical power because it's reliant on life essence, which means that this power will not run in your magical circuits, but in your heart.

“With this said, you don’t have to worry about leakage problems. If you don’t have a lover then, yes, this power of mine is quite troublesome. But, this is not a problem for you, right? You have not one, not two, but four lovers. The downsides of making a pact with me are already eliminated.”

Ethan crossed his arms over his chest and pondered. “This lethargic state that my lovers will experience once I embrace them, how bad is it? Maybe you’re just downplaying it and saying that it can easily be fixed by a good night’s rest.”

“Ethan, my boy, you will not turn into a vampire, you know?” the Purple Flame replied. “It’s not like your girls are losing the blood inside their bodies. But, I guess life essence is similar to blood essence in that regard. freeweb(n)ovel.co(m)

“So, to answer your question, they will feel tired, which can be fixed by rest or by drinking rejuvenation potions. As to how severe their lethargy would be, it will depend on how many times you embrace them.

“Two to three times is good, but more than that is bad. So split it up between your lovers, so they won’t be sleeping like a log for an entire day… or two. But, I assure you, there are no lasting side effects on their bodies. In fact, they will even thank you because my power also provides beautifying properties to the ladies.”

The Winged Trident chuckled because the Purple Flame was now starting to come clean after Ethan pressed it for answers.

“Is there anything else that you are hiding from me?” Ethan inquired.

“No,” the Purple Flame replied. “So, would you like to sign the contract now? I’ll even throw some freebies if you sign up today.”

Ethan thought about the Purple Flame’s offer before shifting his gaze to the White Orb that had remained silent until now.

Although the Purple Flame’s offer was truly exciting, he felt that it also held an equivalent danger that he might regret later after he made a pact with it.

After thinking a while, Ethan walked towards the White Orb of Light and pressed his hand over it.

“Can you tell me what benefits you can give me if I form a contract with you?” Ethan inquired.

The White Orb of Light suddenly glowed brightly, illuminating the entire world in white.

It was so bright that Ethan was forced to cover his eyes to shield himself from the light.

He didn’t know how long it took before the light finally receded, but when it did, Ethan lowered his arm and slowly opened his eyes.

There, hovering at the center of a lake, was a severed Giant’s Head, which made Ethan feel as if time had stopped completely.

A few seconds later, he covered his lips with his right hand as tears started to fall from his eyes.

He didn’t know why, but after seeing the severed Giant’s Head, the only thing he felt was extreme heartache.

It was as if something very important from him had been taken away, making him cry out loud, even howling in pain and despair.

This sadness and heartache came from the very depths of his soul, making him cry uncontrollably. freew(e)bnovel.(c)om

This was the first time he was seeing the severed Giant’s Head, but something inside of him was certain that he knew who it was.

That giant was someone very dear to him.

Extremely dear to him.

Within that spiritual world, Ethan’s cries of pain and sadness echoed across the sky.

He was mourning the loss of that very important person, who cared for him deeply and dearly thousands of years ago.

As the boy cried in front of it, the Giant’s eyes, which were closed, also shed a tear.

This single tear fell on the surface of the lake, resulting in a faint ripple that transcended through time and space.
