Nearly a week had passed since Ethan’s and Langston’s battle. Although the hype of the duel had decreased significantly, many people still talk about it from time to time. Some of them were even comparing Ethan to the Legendary Fortis Dud, who built Brynhildr Academy in order to educate the next generation of Wizards and Witches. Ethan found these talks quite amusing. He didn’t think of himself as someone special because it was the Mermaid Princess, Illumina, that helped him during his great…-

The next day, Ethan found himself the center of everyone’s attention. The wizards, and witches, who didn’t take him seriously in the past, now looked at him in a different light. To Chloe’s frustration, the pretty and beautiful witches of the academy were now openly flirting with her cousin, even winking at him as he walked past them in the hallways. “It sure is nice being Mr. Popular,” Chloe said with a pout. “Well, this is just the outcome of my win against Langston,” Ethan…

68 Partial Resonance Inside the Dud Manor… “Make way!” Henry said with a big smile on his face. “The food is here!” Several floating trays filled with freshly cooked food flew towards the dining area of the Dud Manor. Henry went to the kitchen and told the cooks that their Manor was going to have a party, and he would be bringing the food all the way back to their residence. This was a very common thing in Brynhildr Academy, so the kitchen catered to Henry’s request and prepared…

67 The Power Of Those Who Believe In Magic The spectators looked at the handsome young man in a daze as he stood leaning on his pitchfork and panting for breath. Above him, a nearly transparent image of a beautiful mermaid could be seen. The Third Years, Fourth Years, as well as the Professors of the Academy, all thought of a single word as they gazed at the apparition above Ethan’s head. “Resonance…,” Professor Rinehart muttered as he looked at the image of the mermaid that hovered…

66 The Power Of Those Who Believe In Magic Ethan, who was at the trajectory of the black fireball, was planning to move to the side in order to avoid the incoming spell. However, when the black fireball was a few meters away from him, it exploded mid-air, pushing him back due to the aftermath of the explosion. “What’s wrong?” Langston asked with a sneer. “That is just the opener. Did that wake you up from your delusion of beating me?” Ethan, who had skidded a few meters from where…

65 The Power Of Those Who Believe In Magic After having a chat with the Mermaid Princess, Ethan looked at his reflection in front of the mirror and sighed deeply. ‘If great power requires great responsibilities then why do people use it to hurt others?’ Ethan thought as he helplessly shook his head. He had a feeling that Wizards and Witches, who were born with magic, took things for granted. Since they were born with this powerful and wonderful gift that not everyone could use, some of them…

“Are you sure about this Ethan?” Professor Violet asked. “Staking your position as Pillar for this duel is not compulsory. You can refuse if you want to.” “It’s fine, Professor,” Ethan replied. “There are times when people need to stand their ground, even if the stakes are not in their favor.” Langston, who heard Ethan’s reply, simply sneered. For him, fighting against a Dud was such a trivial manner. The only reason why he asked to put their titles as Pillars on the line was…

“That girl is challenging Langston?” a pretty girl that belonged to Langston’s entourage said in disdain. “She must be out of her mind!” “This is what happens when you spend a lot of time with a Dud,” a skinny teenager commented. “You become as stupid as them.” “How true. My father even supported that proposal to not allow any Dud to study in the Academy. If they weren’t here, this Academy would be a lot better.” “Seeing them in the Dining Hall makes me lose my appetite.…

Luna continued her chant and more runes danced around Ethan. Some of them even went inside his body, as if they were being absorbed by something. The Chesmire Cat had mentioned that this might happen, so Luna didn’t think much of it. Ten minutes later, Ethan started to pant for breath. He was still in a trance, but his body was reacting subconsciously to the runes that were circling around him. Luna, who saw this, became a bit worried. However, she couldn’t stop the ceremony mid-way because it…

At exactly eight in the evening, Ethan knocked on Luna’s door in order to wake her up. Fortunately, she was already awake and opened the door with a more relaxed expression than what she had more than an hour ago. “Let’s go,” Luna said with a smile. Ethan nodded and followed her outside of the Dud Manor. The angelic beauty had already told him that they would be going to one of the places she visited whenever she wanted to be alone. A place that would allow her to see the moon-lit sky,…
