Wizard World Irregular-Chapter 760: The Safest Place In The Shire Continent [Part 2]

Chessy was truly impressed that Ethan had grown to the point that he could feel the faint traces that his body emitted.

Because of this discovery, the chubby cat remained silent for a few moments, causing Ethan to wonder if something was amiss.

'Is there something wrong, Chessy?' Ethan asked. 'Every time you come to see me, you are either pranking me or something important has happened. So, which is it? The latter or the former?'

'How rude,' Chessy replied. 'Do I need a reason to come and see you? For your information, sometimes I just want to talk to people because I feel lonely, you know?'

Ethan nodded in agreement. 'True. So, did you just want to have a chat with me about random things?'

'W-Well, something like that,' Chessy averted his gaze which made Ethan sigh internally. 'The world is a big place after all. There are many things that happen in places where our eyes couldn't see.'

'So, something did happen?' Ethan asked. 'You wouldn't be reacting this way otherwise.' Chessy eyed Ethan for a while before laying on top of the table, while looking in his direction. 'You see, my fourth cousin told me about some of the things that are happening in Midgard,' Chessy stated. 'The various leaders of the Fomorians are gathering at the border of the Lands of Anwnn.

'If you don't know what the Lands of Anwnn represent, it is a land where hellish creatures roam. Even the Fomorians don't want to cause trouble to the Lord of Anwnn, Arawn, who lives in the Four-Peaked Fortress.'

Chessy licked his paw for a bit before continuing his tale.

'Well, as I was saying, my sixth cousin...'

'You said fourth cousin earlier. How the hell did it become sixth degree now?'

'Don't sweat the small stuff,' Chessy replied. 'You'll be able to live longer if you don't focus on the unimportant things.'

Ethan said a silent prayer in his heart for Chessy's unimportant cousin, who had given the chubby black cat very important information.

'As I was saying earlier, my cousin named Timmy, who lived in that Fortress, saw the big shots of the Fomorian race,' Chessy stated. 'Oh, before I forget, do you remember those Fomorians who were sent here as a scouting party to find the Stone of Kings? It was the Lord of Anwnn, Arawn, who sent them here.'

Ethan nodded. 'I know.'

'So, since the Scouts have been killed, the leaders believe that it would be a good idea to no longer sens scouting parties to look for the stone,' Chessy explained. "They want to send their full force and destroy all opposition before they look for any leads concerning the stone. 'After six days, and six nights of argument, a decision has been made. They are going to send one last scouting party to Southshire. If this party fails then they will no longer hesitate to wage war with the people living in these lands.'

Ethan frowned because the Fomorians that he had faced in the past were truly cunning and vile individuals.

If another party of these beings was sent to their continent, he might not be able to deal with them as easily as he did the last time.

Since the enemy already knew that there would be people who would stop them, they were bound to act more cautiously from now on.

'Well then, do you know the location of the Stone of Kings?' Ethan inquired. 'If we know where it is then we could definitely protect it from the Fomorians.'

Chessy shook his head. 'You don't have to worry about the stone. Currently, it is in the safest place in the Shire Continent.'

"The safest place?' Ethan frowned. 'Where is that place?'

'Here in Brynhildr Academ-.' The body of the chubby black cat stiffened because it made a slip of the tongue.

Ethan, who had heard Chessy's reply, narrowed his eyes and demanded that the cat tell him everything he knew.

'Seriously, you don't need to worry about Lia Fail,' Chessy said firmly. 'I just came here to inform you that the Fomorians are moving, and you should prepare yourself to fight against them, if they ever set foot in the continent.'

'Have you told this to the Headmaster?' Ethan asked.

'Yes,' Chessy replied. 'Even Professor Barret knows about it. Actually, I just left their rooms, and was wondering where to go next. Suddenly, I felt a strong urge to visit you, and now I am here.'

Since the chubby black cat could go anywhere it wanted in the academy, no walls, doors, or enchantments were able to block its path.

Ethan's room wasn't an exception, despite the many layers of security that every Manor had to ward off potential intruders.

'Very well, thank you for this information,' Ethan replied. 'What does the Headmaster plan to do with this news?'

'What else?' Chessy shrugged. 'Inform everyone that needs to know about it. This means that the Kings and Queens of Eastshire, Westshire, Northshire, and Southshire will know about this before the sun sets today.

'Last time we got lucky because those who were sent here were too full of themselves, thinking that they would be able to do what they wanted. Unfortunately for them, things didn't end the way they planned it.

'But, know this. If the next batch of Fomorians are any smarter, they will definitely keep an extremely low profile. It will be nearly impossible to detect them until it is too late.'

Ethan nodded in agreement. The previous Fomorians were also quite powerful. However, two of them thought that they could do whatever they wanted, which led to their existence being discovered by the Elves and the Patriarch of the Asta Family.

'Does the Professor have a way of finding these Fomorians the moment they land on the continent?' Ethan inquired.

'Professor Rinehart is not a God, you know?' Chessy replied in an amused tone. 'While he is strong, and many other things combined, he is not exactly someone that specializes in finding people, or monsters for that matter.

'It will be Professor Garret, the Magistratus, as well as the other experts of the different Shire Kingdoms, who will think of a way to discover them.

All you need to do is be ready to strike the moment these Fomorians are captured in the net that we have cast for them.

Ethan nodded in understanding. 'Very well. Thank you, Chessy. Keep me updated about these

things.'

'Fine,' Chessy replied before once again turning invisible. 'Be careful, Ethan, things might not end as smoothly this time around.'

After saying those words, the Chesmire Cat's presence disappeared as if it had completely vanished into thin air.

Ethan, who was left alone with his lovers, sighed in his heart.

'Why can't everyone just live in peace?' Ethan thought before shaking his head helplessly.

Although he, and many other people, didn't want a life filled with conflicts, he had no choice but to react to any threat that would disrupt the very peace that he, as well as the other Champions of the Shire Continent fought so hard to protect.

There was a saying that said "in the midst of chaos, lies opportunity".

Ethan didn't know what kind of opportunity he could get from these chaotic times.

But, one thing was certain.

For the sake of all the things he held sacred, he would not hesitate to fight anyone, who wished to destroy the lands that he now called home.
