Wizard World Irregular

A day after Ethan had a talk with his lovers, Princess Ariel and her entourage, who would be attending his wedding with Illumina, arrived at the Kingdom of Saphirus.

Naturally, she was given the same VIP Treatment that was given to Princess Wilhelmina.

Ever since Ethan had single-handedly destroyed The Great Plan, all the members of the Ocean Races knew that the Prince of Atlantis had no ambition of ruling the land and sea.

Some of them felt relief, while some of them felt disappointment.

Still, there were still some causes for celebration.

The Lost City of Atlantis, which had disappeared hundreds of years ago, had finally reappeared.

Not only that, the Progenitor of the Sea, Leviathan, had once again returned to the sea.

While the Ocean Races had lost King Oceanus as their Protector, the arrival of Levithan made them feel a lot safer.

Also, Leviathan was known for his neutral stance, and would not allow any members of the Ocean Races to be bullied by those on land.

In the past there was this human kingdom that was founded on an archipelago. They thought that they could get away with capturing the Ocean Races and selling them as slaves.

In the span of a single night, that entire Kingdom, as well as the Archipelago disappeared from the face of the world.

All of this was done by Leviathan and, since then, a time of peace came between the sea and land dwellers came to pass.

When Leviathan disappeared along with the city of Atlantis, conflict between the surface dwellers and the Ocean Races intensified.

This was also the reason why many agreed with King Oceanus' Great Plan, allowing the various underwater kingdoms to rise up in arms, and drown the land with their raging tides of vengeance.

Princess Ariel supported this idea, but now, seeing the handsome Prince of Atlantis before her, all thoughts about world domination were locked up in the deepest part of her heart.

'It may not happen now, but who knows what will happen tomorrow?' Princess Ariel thought as she greeted the young man, who would be wed very soon.

"Greetings, Princess Ariel," Ethan said as soon as he saw the Mermaid Princess.

"Your Highness honors me with your greeting," Princess Ariel replied, bowing her head in respect. "This loyal subject has been feeling down as of late. But, after seeing His Highness, all those troubles seem to disappear completely."

Princess Wilhelmina, who was standing a meter away from Ethan, couldn't help but frown.

'What is this girl scheming?' Princess Wilhelmina thought. 'She's not here to stop the wedding, right?'

Naturally, Princess Wilhelmina brushed this thought aside. She didn't believe that Princess Ariel had the guts to do such a thing.

However, she suddenly remembered something, which made her feel anxious.

There were rumors that the Mermaid Princess had an ability similar to Charm, which made people look at her favorably.

While these rumors weren't confirmed, and Princess Wilhelmina thought that this was just a bunch of nonsense, it didn't change the fact that it made her wary.

The three Mermaid Princesses were extremely beautiful ladies.

They didn't need to have the Charm Ability to make people fall in love with them.

A simple smile was enough to make most Mermen look at them with lovestruck eyes, which was also the reason why Princess Wilhelmina didn't believe that Ariel had this kind of ability. But, contrary to her belief, the two beings inside Ethan's Sea of Consciousness, were both looking at Princess Ariel in disdain.

'She indeed has a nerfed version of Charm Ability,' Sebastian said in disdain. 'Does she really think that this will work on Ethan?'

"This skill will only work on weak-willed men who are already infatuated with her beauty,' Ethan's Other Half commented. 'Ethan, why don't you use your own Charm Ability? The Legacy that Lord Ashmedai gave to you is the strongest in the world. Even your sister, Joanne, uses it to suit her needs.'

'Does Ethan even need to use Charm on her?' Sebastian harrumphed. 'With just a word, I'm sure that she'd spread her fish tail for him.'

'True.' Ethan's Other Half nodded. 'This girl is just grasping for straw at this point.'

Ethan, who also noticed the faint glow on Princess Ariel's eyes, couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"Princess, please don't use those tricks on me," Ethan said kindly. "It will only make me look down on you if you continue like this."

"Oh dear." Princess Ariel giggled, canceling her ability. "I was just testing His Highness. If you are to be manipulated by bad Merfolk, the Ocean Races will suffer a great loss. I am relieved to know that Prince Ethan's willpower is very strong."

"This girl sure knows how to bullsh*t,' Ethan's Other Half shook his head helplessly.

'Does she think that our boy is an innocent virgin, who will fall for these cheap tricks?' Sebastian asked in contempt. 'Go, Ethan. Use your Charm on her, and make her understand who she's messing with!'

Of course, Ethan ignored the comments from the peanut gallery, and decided to talk to Princess Ariel about important matters.

"Princess, you already know that I need the Cauldron of the Dagda," Ethan said. "But, since it is already bound to you, I will not forcefully take it from you. Instead, I would like to ask you a

favor."

"As long as this loyal subject is able to grant His Highness' desires, Ariel will not hesitate to swim into the sea of hell for you," Princess Ariel replied.

'Swim into the sea of hell?' Sebastian smirked. 'You'd be redder than a cooked shrimp if you

do that.'

'Hush, let's just watch for now,' Ethan's Other Half commented.

Ethan paused for a while before saying what he needed to say.

"I will be honest with you, Princess," Ethan said. "Aside from marrying Illumina, I also came to the sea to fight against the Fomorians. They plan to invade Eastshire, and since many of my loved ones lived there, I cannot allow them to make landfall.

"Of course, I will not force the Ocean Races to participate in this battle. However, once the battle is over, I would like you to accompany me to Eastshire. There is a ceremony that we need to do, and the Cauldron of the Dagda is one of the treasures needed to complete this

ritual."

Princess Ariel didn't reply right away. Instead, she looked at Ethan with a solemn expression

on her face.

Two minutes later, she asked a question, which made Ethan's eyes widen in shock. "Has His Highness gathered the other treasures of the Tuatha De Danann?" Ariel asked. "Yes," Ethan admitted. "The only treasure that is missing is the Cauldron of Dagda." "I understand." Princess Ariel nodded. "I will think about this matter carefully, Your Highness. But, please know that I have an important position in my Kingdom. If I need to accompany you back to land, I hope that you will agree to some of my conditions.'

"There it is!' Sebastian clapped his hands. "This girl is really a villain.'

'You got that right,' Ethan's Other Half smirked.

Ethan also smiled faintly because he had already expected this to happen. Now, he just needed

to listen to Princess Ariel's conditions, and make sure that none of them hit his bottom line.
