Chapter 752: The Power Of The Legacy Of Rivers And Lakes [Part 2]

There was a saying that all rivers lead to the sea.

This was why Lilian's and Ethan's Legacy were very compatible with each other, resulting in a resonance effect that amplified their powers.

It wasn't even an exaggeration to say that this union was a match made in heaven.

This was also the reason why whenever Ethan and Lilian did intimate things together, her body's sensitivity would be heightened drastically, making her unable to last more than two rounds with him.

Most of the time, Lilian would faint because she was not the only one making love with Ethan.

Every fiber of her being was also making love with him.

As a result, her powers flowed naturally to Ethan, allowing him to wield a portion of it freely and without any consequences.

After they became one, Ethan was able to conjure a storm even if he wasn't in the sea.

He could also manipulate any water in his surroundings, regardless of its nature.

But that was all that he thought he could do.

Even Lilian, who possessed the Legacy of Rivers and Lakes, still hadn't unlocked all of its secrets.

Although she was able to tap into its power, allowing her to strengthen her Water and Weather-based spells, aside from that, she was completely clueless about what kind of power she truly possessed.

And now, Ethan was slowly learning the true ability of this Legacy.

The young man sat cross-legged at the bottom of the lake and remained unmoving.

He was so still that it didn't even look like he was breathing at all.

Minutes passed, hours passed, until finally, a whole day passed.

After absorbing the information that flooded his head, Ethan's thoughts became clearer.

He could even see the red blob of energy that was hiding within his Sea of Consciousness.

It was the Charm Spell that Nicole had left in his body, allowing her to manipulate his thoughts and make him feel strongly attracted to her.

Ethan couldn't really do anything about it, so he left it alone.

He had noticed that the red blob of energy was slowly getting smaller with time.

Since Lilian already said that he needed three days to completely purify his mind from Nicole's control, he focused on the information that he had just finished comprehending.

With his eyes still closed, Ethan extended his senses outward.

The power of this Legacy was quite terrifying.

Every drop of water, no matter what form it took, could serve as his eyes and ears to spy on his surroundings.

Every drop of rain.

Every dew drop.

Any puddle of water.

Any nearby river and lake served as his eyes and ears and could be manipulated remotely according to his will.

Of course, this ability had restrictions.

But even its restrictions didn't feel like complete restrictions.

'I bet that if I share this information with Lilian, she will be shocked silly,' Ethan mused as he thought of his lover, whom he wanted to see very much.

The Legacy of Rivers and Lakes had complete control of all the water within the three-mile radius of its wielder.

If the one who possessed this power used it for evil, then the consequences would be catastrophic.

Ethan finally understood why Lilian was making it rain non-stop.

Right now, the entirety of Fortis Town and its surroundings were under her control.

Even if she didn't leave the lake, she would be able to freely use the rain to attack anyone whom she wished to attack.

However, since she didn't do it, it only meant one thing.

The current conditions weren't enough to defeat the Witch of the East.

Looking at Lilian's memories, Ethan finally understood why.

Just like Nicole in the real world, the Nicole in this world also used the power of Ice.

But it wasn't ordinary ice.

This ice also contained the power of a Legacy.

Simply put, the Lady of the Lake and the Witch of the East were a bad matchup for each other.

Both of them could cancel each other's strength, which would make their battle end in a draw with no winner between them. Searᴄh the NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Even so, Lilian continued to make it rain, soaking the land with water and increasing the water levels of the rivers and lakes.

All she needed was something that would tilt the victory in her favor, which was where Ethan came into play.

The Witch needed Ethan for reasons only she knew.

But as long as Lilian was merged with Ethan, she would be able to protect him from her influence.

Simply put, the one who would fight against the Witch was none other than the young man, with Lilian supporting him from within his body.

These thoughts passed through Ethan's head, allowing him to understand the gist of Lillian's plan.

"Still, we need Fortis Dud to make this work," Ethan said.

"Yes," Lilian replied. "But there is also a chance that he will not cooperate. Just in case he doesn't help us, you need to think of a way to overcome Nicole during the battle. That is the only way we can win against her.

"Also, you should know the name of her Legacy."

Ethan nodded. "I was just about to ask you about it. Could you tell me what the name of her Legacy is?"

"Absolute Zero," Lilian replied. "A power so great that it eats her from the inside out. The only reason she has been able to survive it all this time is because she has taken the warmth of extremely powerful individuals.

"With how cold her body can become, she always needs to absorb the warmth of others. A single touch from her can turn a person into a block of ice. Fortunately, she also doesn't kill indiscriminately.

"Because of this, she decided to simply manipulate people to supply her with warm blood on a regular basis. She only drinks the blood of chaste maidens, and her favorite prey is Witches who possess strong powers.

"I had a feeling that she would set her sights on you, but I never thought that you would survive making love to her. You should have completely turned into a block of ice when the two of you became one, but you didn't.

"This means that you have something that counters her powers, and this is something that you need to discover so that we can win against her."

Ethan nodded in understanding as he continued to comprehend Lilian's Legacy.

He hoped that when he finished understanding what her power was able to do, he would also understand what Nicole wanted from him, which might also help him find the cure for his best friend's frequent bouts of coldness that she was unable to endure on her own.
