Wizard World Irregular

Chapter 768: Ethan’s Undercover Mission [Part 2]





Just like Dantalion's group, Professors who accompanied their Ravens also faced off against the Robed Individuals.

Unfortunately, some of them weren't so lucky because they encountered a big group,

resulting in them suffering serious injuries.

Fortunately, none of them died and, with the help of the Ravens, they were able to escape in

time.

Professor Barret, Professor Lionel, Professor Ophelia, and Professor Nicola, on the other hand, managed to capture a few of these Robed Individuals.

A/N: Just in case you guys have forgotten, Professor Lionel was Ethan's combat instructor when he was a First Year.

Professor Nicola was the Spell Casting Professor who became Chloe's Master.

These Professors were quite surprised when they learned that the Raven Flock led by Ethan's Raven managed to capture an entire group and brought them back to the academy as Ice Sculptures.

Naturally, Professor Rinehart and Professor Barret were the ones who did the interrogation, making sure to extract every bit of information that they could from these people.

"Something doesn't feel right," Professor Barret said to the Headmaster after he was done with the interrogation. "All of them are saying the same thing. Although this should point to the mastermind behind this incident, it just doesn't sit well with me that their stories are the same."

Professor Rinehart nodded. "Perhaps they are just disposable pawns. Aside from the letter they all received and the method to identify the ravens that belong to our academy, they know nothing else."

"The Order of the Black Hawk." Professor Barret frowned. "This is the first time I've heard about such an organization.

"But then again, Midgard is a big place. Maybe it's just a newly formed group. So, tell me, does it ring any bell to you? Have you offended any organization as of late?"

Professor Rinehart smiled bitterly. "How should I know? You and I have many enemies. But the name of their organization doesn't really ring any bell in my memory."

"So, what should we do with them?"

"We only have two choices. We either contact the Magic Bureau or call the Magistratus. Which one do you trust more?"

"Do you even need to ask?" Professor Barret asked. "I'll ask my Raven to deliver my letter to Gaeneron. After that, I'll sleep for a few hours, then we can resume our investigation."

Professor Rinehart nodded. "Sounds like a good plan."

But just as Professor Barret was about to leave, a knock was heard on the door of the Headmaster's Office.

"Come in," Professor Rinehart said.

When the door opened, the two Professors were surprised to see Ethan enter the room.

"I heard your Raven did a good job apprehending the members of The Order of the Black Hawk," Professor Barret said. "Well done."

"It's because Dantalion knows what he's doing, Professor," Ethan replied before giving a slight bow to Professor Rinehart, whom he had come to talk to.

Seeing that Ethan seemed to have business with him, Professor Rinehart made a gesture for the young man to sit so that they could discuss why the young man had visited his office.

"Professor, there is something that I would like to consult you with about this incident," Ethan said.

"Go on." Professor Rinehart nodded.

"I would like to investigate this matter personally," Ethan replied. "Dantalion has already shared with me what he learned, and frankly, I feel that we are missing an important clue. In order to know what that is, I've decided to go on an undercover mission and let this organization capture me in my Raven Form."

Professor Rinehart's and Professor Barret's expressions both turned serious after hearing the young man's words.

"This is a serious matter, Ethan," Professor Rinehart said. "I think this is a very dangerous idea. Once you are captured by these people, they might cripple or incapacitate you.

"Of course, I don't doubt your fighting ability, but it doesn't change its risks. One mistake, and you might find yourself in an extremely dangerous situation."

Ethan nodded in understanding. "I know, Professor. But, I believe that I can pull it off." The Headmaster played with his beard as if pondering whether he should approve Ethan's reckless plan or not.

He then glanced at his best friend, Professor Barret, who had decided to stay in the room to hear Ethan out.

But just like the Headmaster, he was also concerned about the level of danger that Ethan would be facing on his own.

Seeing that the Headmaster didn't look too keen on giving him permission, Ethan decided to use one of his Trump Cards.

"The Ancient Wendigo is with me, and I believe that, with him around, I will be able to escape any sticky situation," Ethan stated. "Also, I have the Celestial Domain where thousands of Fairies can back me up at any given time."

The Headmaster looked more at ease after hearing Ethan's statement.

"Fine, but you'll have a deadline," Professor Rinehart said. "One week. You need to return to the academy in a week. Whether you find something or not, you need to come back within a

week."

"Understood," Ethan replied. "I will do as you say, Professor."

"Good." Professor Rinehart nodded. "When do you plan to leave?"

"Tonight," Ethan answered.

The Headmaster decided to give the young man a magical artifact that would allow Ethan to talk directly to him as long as the teenage boy was still in Eastshire.

"Give me a report once a day every three in the afternoon," Professor Rinehart stated. "I'll be waiting for your calls. Also, prioritize your safety. Do I make myself clear?"

"Yes, Professor," Ethan replied before giving the Headmaster a grateful bow.

After their discussion ended, the young man left the Headmaster's Office to talk to his lovers about his trip outside of the academy.

Just like he expected, all of them were worried about his safety. But at the same time, they also recognized his strength.

"Come back safely, okay?" Lily said. "You don't want me to become a widow, right?"

"Of course not," Ethan replied. "You're too young to be a widow. I will return safely,

promise."

Chloe, Luna, Lilian, and Emma also asked him to be careful on his mission.

Joanne looked upset. However, it was not because Ethan was leaving the academy, but

because he wasn't taking her with him!

The young lady was also confident in her strength, so she believed that even if she

accompanied her brother, things were going to be fine.

Of course, Ethan wouldn't allow such a thing, which made Joanne pout for the rest of the day, even until Ethan left in the evening to begin his undercover mission.
