Chapter 484: The First Pact [Part 2]



The young man was currently lying in the center of a magic circle, which Cliodhna had drawn using ancient magical runes.

Ethan had recovered enough soul power to undertake this ceremony that would allow him to see the three sources of Origin Magic inside his body.

"Remember, do not be tempted by you-know-who," Vincent stated in a serious tone. "It is very easy to choose the easy path that will make you stronger, Ethan. However, being strong also requires a strong mind.

"If you allow yourself to get drunk with power, you might end up treating those around you as inferior beings that you could use as tools or stepping stones to allow you to reach greater heights.

"Right now, you still don\'t have the willpower to resist its temptations. Actually, this Origin Magic has already rooted itself deep inside your soul. The fact that Thing is inside your Sea of Consciousness is proof that it is now an inseparable part of you.

"But you are a bit lucky because the one inside your head doesn\'t plan to harm you. It is even helping you build a stronger resistance against you-know-who for when the two of you finally meet."

Cliodhna waited for her husband to finish talking before she started the chant. As the words of power left her lips, the magic circle came to life, making the young man lying at its center feel drowsy.

"Remember Ethan, don\'t lose your way," Vincent warned as the young man was slowly falling into a deep sleep. "Be strong, and shield your heart from temptations."

After hearing those words, Ethan\'s eyes finally closed as he once again fell into a deep sleep.

Cliohdna motioned for her husband to cast a dome of invisibility around them so that their enemies wouldn\'t find them while they were keeping watch on Ethan\'s spiritual body.

————————————

When the young man opened his eyes, he found himself staring into a world of darkness, which made him wonder if his eyes were still closed.

However, after confirming that his eyes were open, he immediately raised his guard as he tried to look around him, hoping to see something or anything that would give him the slightest clue as to where he was currently at.

A moment later, a purple flame appeared several meters away from him.

This flame became bigger and bigger until it turned into a three-meter-tall blaze.

From within the purple flames, Ethan could see a pair of golden eyes, which were looking at him with amusement.

"Well, hello there, young man. It pains my heart knowing that Vincent slandered me before I could even properly introduce myself to you. That brat has always been ungrateful even after I gave him the power he wanted.

"You shouldn\'t make him your role model, you hear me? Although he could have as many women as he liked, he became a henpecked husband. Like seriously, isn\'t that lame? He can\'t even mention anything about other women for fear that his wife will castrate him!

"He is such a pitiful fool, but nevertheless still amusing. Just make sure to not be infected by his henpecked genes, or it\'s game over for you, Ethan."

The voice coming from the purple fire was very friendly as if he had known Ethan for a very long time.

Even Ethan, who had been told to raise his guard towards this being, couldn\'t help but feel attracted to him because his words seemed to resonate within his very soul.

Suddenly, a bluish light appeared on the left side of the Purple Flame. It then transformed into a blue crystal trident, with four angelic wings spread wide.

"Well met, my descendant. I\'m glad that you have finally awakened my power inside of you. Also, before anything else, I would like to tell you that I am very happy with your approach to relationships.

"Although your magic circuits can recover faster if you ignore your feelings and just do the deed with your lovers, I greatly advise that you prioritize mutual love and respect for them.

"Unlike my friend here, I am not in a hurry to make a pact with you. Before anything, I want you to grow, experience many more things in life, and get to know life\'s happiness, sadness, loneliness, and madness.

"All of this would help you grow to become a better version of yourself, which would allow you to wield greater powers in the future. I am already looking forward to that day to arrive, and I hope that you will not rush to reach that goal."

The purple flame chuckled after hearing his comrade\'s words because this meant that he only needed to contend with the third power that lay in Ethan\'s body.

As if waiting for that cue, a white orb of light manifested between the purple flame and the winged trident.

This white orb of light grew in size until it became two meters tall.

Unlike its two counterparts, the white orb of light didn\'t say anything and simply hovered in place, making the Trident and the Purple Flame wonder if the third power hiding inside Ethan\'s body was mute.

"It seems that our friend here is the silent type," the Purple Flame said in a friendly manner. "He\'s not even trying to make a sales pitch to make Ethan pick him instead of me. Friend, you should put a little effort, you know? I mean, it\'s not like I\'m worried about you or anything. Don\'t get the wrong idea, okay?"

"…" The White Orb of Light remained silent as it continued to hover in place.

Even after it received a few more encouragement from the Purple Flame, it remained unresponsive, making the Trident and the Flame sigh at the same time.

"Very well, since you don\'t want to talk, I\'ll start the negotiations," the Purple Flame said. "Ethan, I know that Vincent and his wife talked smack about me earlier and are even painting me as the bad guy. But, know this—that ungrateful brat, Vincent, and your Father are currently wielding the power I bestowed upon them.

"If my power is as bad as Vincent has claimed to be, then why is he perfectly fine? Also, you know this already, right? Although that ungrateful henpecked husband is annoying, it doesn\'t change the fact that he is very strong. He only became that strong after making a pact with me, so before you decide, let me tell you the benefits of making your first Pact with me."

Ethan reluctantly nodded, as he listened to the friendly voice who began to list the benefits that he would gain if he were to form a pact with him, which would allow him to become a stronger version of himself.
