Chapter 111: I Will Accept It Gratefully
After hearing the Chesmire Cat's and Illumina's warnings, he decided to just fight using his Martial Arts against Kurt in their battle today.
He would rather fight without magic than lose it forever because of his stubbornness.
While he was psyching himself up for the fight, he heard a knock on his door and wondered if it was his Head Prefect, Henry, calling him to go to the Grand Stadium together.
However, when he opened the door, he didn't see the person he expected to see. He did however see an angelic beauty, who was looking at him with a flushed face.
"C-Can I come in?" Luna asked before lowering her head.
"Of course," Ethan replied and he opened the door wider in order to allow the angelic beauty to enter his room.
This wasn't the first time that Luna had entered Ethan's room. However, she stepped inside as if this was her first time, which amused the handsome teenager who didn't have any idea why Luna visited her so early in the morning.
"You mentioned yesterday that you didn't plan to kiss any fairies today," Luna said. "May I know the reason why?"
"Ah, so that's why you are here." Ethan nodded in understanding. "Actually, using Fae Magic takes a toll on my body, so I don't plan to use them today."
"Takes a toll on your body?" Luna momentarily forgot her worries and looked at Ethan in surprise.
"Yes," Ethan replied. "Fae Magic isn't really a magic that humans can use freely. If I keep using them, I might suffer from mana poisoning, which will make my situation worse."
"Oh, no! Should we take you to the infirmary and have them check you?"
"Calm down, Luna. Nothing is wrong with my body at the moment. So there is no need to be alarmed."
The angelic beauty then breathed a sigh of relief after knowing that Ethan was really okay. When she finally regained her composure, she suddenly remembered her reason for coming to visit him before his match started.
Immediately, her face became flushed once again, making Ethan wonder if Luna was still worrying about his condition.
But, before he could even say anything, the angelic beauty walked up to him, bravely raised her head, and looked him in the eye.
"I thought about this a lot last night," Luna said in a voice filled with determination. "I thought about how I might be able to help you. Chloe has already done her part in helping you with your duel two days ago, so I decided to help you in your last match against Kurt Hale."
Ethan, who somehow felt that Luna was doing her best to tell him these things, remained silent and simply looked at her beautiful eyes, which were locked onto his own.
"Ethan, I too want to become part of your strength," Luna stated. "T-Thats why, I will share my magic power with you."
The handsome teenager blinked once, then twice before realizing what Luna was talking about.
"W-Wait," Ethan almost subconsciously took a step back after understanding Luna's words.
Fortunately, his body held its ground, and didn't back away from the young lady, who had gathered all of her courage to help him.
"You mean, you want me to kiss you?" Ethan inquired just to make sure that he and Luna were on the same page.
"Yes," Luna said with a beet-red face. "I want to share my magical power with you, so kiss me just like you did Chloe."
"C-Calm down for a bit, Luna," Ethan said as he rested his hands on Luna's shoulders. "I appreciate your feelings. Believe me that I do. No sane boy would reject kissing you, and I certainly would love to do it as well. However, I don't want to take advantage of you. Besides, today is not the day of the full moon.
Didn't you say that you can only use your magic during those days?"
Luna nodded her head. "It's true that I can only use Magic on the days of the full moon. But, that doesn't mean that I have no means of using Magic on normal days."
The angelic beauty then took out something from her pocket and showed it to Ethan.
A maroon bracelet, that was almost the same color as Luna's hair, appeared in front of him.
"A Magical Battery?" Ethan muttered as he looked at the bracelet in Luna's hand.
He was quite familiar with it because he had seen it when he visited the Magical Trinket Club, where Luna served as its Vice President.
"Yes," Luna replied. "I plan to help you with this."
The handsome teenager watched as Luna put on the bracelet. It glistened for a bit and, before long, magical power started to flow through Luna's Magical Circuits, allowing her to use magic.
A look of understanding appeared on Ethan's face when he saw what was happening.
"Ethan, I want to help you," Luna said. "Besides, you have to take responsibility for kissing me."
The teenage boy could feel his heart beating wildly inside his chest, as he looked at the angelic beauty, whose face was as red as a tomato.
When he kissed Luna for the first time, he thought that he was just dreaming. Because of that, he didn't consider that the kiss he shared with her counted as his first kiss.
However, a part of him also understood that it didn't work that way. Although he thought that he was dreaming, for Luna it was a very real experience.
"I'm sorry," Ethan said as he moved towards Luna and rested his hand on her delicate waist. "I was on the verge of refusing your offer, but doing so was the same as ignoring the amount of courage it took for you to say these words to me."
Ethan then looked at Luna with a gentle gaze before asking her a question.
"Are you sure?" Ethan asked. "Are you fine doing it with me?"
"Yes," Luna replied. "I am sure."
"Then, I will accept it gratefully," Ethan stated. "Thank you, Luna."
"Un." Luna smiled and closed her eyes.
Ethan looked at the angelic beauty in front of him and slowly lowered his head. When their lips were about to touch, he subconsciously closed his eyes, and his arms wrapped around Luna's waist, holding her gently.
A second later, he felt Luna's soft lips against his, that many boys had fantasized about kissing in their daydreams.
She was the first girl that Ethan had kissed in his life and in his heart, Luna held a very special place.
Just like Chloe, who had grown up with him.
If anyone were to hurt these two ladies, Ethan would definitely fight them with everything he had, with or without his magic.
Soon, the faint sound of kissing reverberated inside the room.
As Ethan and Luna kissed each other many times, the handsome teenager's body and heart were slowly being filled with warmth and magical power.
