"Do you surrender?" Ethan asked as Illumina's Water Blade raised Godfrey's chin.
After Hecate landed her ultimate move, the rmaid Princess slapped the Vampire Lord silly, as if venting her anger for being called a Sea Witch earlier.
Now that the Demigod's regeneration ability was temporarily ineffective, Ethan no longer used lethal spells to attack him.
This was why Illumina had taken the initiative to manually slap the handso vampire to oblivion until his cheeks beca black and blue.
"I... I surrender," Godfrey, who no longer had the courage to continue fighting, finally conceded.
Ethan felt sothing warm wash over his body, which was the sign that the contract was now in effect.
Since Godfrey had lost the duel, he was now bound by the clause of the contract.
From now on, the Demigod was forbidden to harm him, his family, his friends, and his acquaintances in any way.
Aside from that, the Vampire Lord would also have to accompany him at World's End, so that he could et the Progenitor of Magic, Hecate.
The dark clouds that covered the sky dispersed completely, making the sunlight shine down upon the world.
A few minutes later, the sound of countless hooves reached their ears as Prince Isaac and the Knights of the Capital City arrived at the scene.
Seeing the destruction in the surroundings and the battered face of Lord Godfrey, the Third Prince of the Milesians looked at Ethan in askance.
"Lady Ethel, can you tell what happened here?" Prince Isaac asked. "Why is Lord Godfrey bruised and beaten?"
"I challenged him to a duel," Ethan answered. "And it just ended."
"A duel?" Prince Isaac asked. "I thought that demons had started to march toward the city. The sound of explosions had reached all the way to the City Gates, scaring the civilians."
Ethan bowed and apologized for disrupting the peace of the city.
"I apologize for causing the people to panic," Ethan said. "Lord Godfrey is just too powerful that we have no choice but to fight seriously. So far, he is the sixth strongest person I have fought in my life."
Godfrey blinked once and twice before glancing at the young beauty who called him the sixth strongest person she had t in her life.
He didn't know if he should feel honored that he was acknowledged to be strong or insulted because he was only ranked sixth.
What he didn't know was that Ethan's rankings were as follows.
1. Grandma Agnes
2. Erras' Avatar
3. Professor Barret
4. His adoptive father, Wallace
5. Seff
6. Godfrey
Prince Isaac, who had always wanted to beat the crap out of the arrogant nobleman hailed as the most handso man in the Capital City, nodded his head in understanding.
"Next ti, please invite if you're planning to duel Lord Godfrey," Prince Isaac said. "I will do my best to fight for you, Lady Ethel."
"You're too kind, You're Highness," Ethan replied. "But I will keep that in mind."
Godfrey scoffed despite the pain he was feeling.
He took a ntal note to wear a mask and beat the crap out of Prince Isaac tonight to vent his frustration.
"Lord Godfrey, thank you for accepting my challenge," Ethan gave the defeated Vampire a polite bow. "Please pack up your clothes and prepare to go on a journey. Tomorrow at noon, we will set off to the place where you promised to take us."
Godfrey sighed before standing up from the ground.
"A deal is a deal, so I will honor my part of the agreent," Godfrey said. "You surprised , Lady Ethel. I'm sure that our trip will be an enjoyable one."
Prince Isaac frowned after hearing that the young lady, whom he had set his sights on, was going to leave the city.
He had already made plans to get to know her better, so this sudden revelation made him feel at a loss.
To make matters worse, she would be traveling alongside Godfrey, who seed to be smiling despite the bloody nose on his face.
"Lady Ethel and I will go on a trip together," Godfrey said as he walked past the Prince, who was mounted on a white horse. "Don't worry, I will buy you a souvenir and tell you all about our... intimate monts together."
These words made Prince Isaac grit his teeth in anger. However, there was nothing he could do but accept that the lady he fancied was going to leave with the number one womanizer of the City of Cashel.
"My Lady, make sure to not spend any ti alone with this rascal," Prince Isaac stated. "Lock the doors of your room. Otherwise, this demon will climb onto your bed and have his way with you."
"Well, that's sothing I look forward to seeing," Lyall said with her arms crossed over her chest. "It will be a very amusing sight to behold."
The prince interpreted Lyall's words as "if he has a death wish, then he can try," which made him feel a little better.
However, Lyall's ant sothing else.
She was simply looking forward to the ti when Godfrey would realize that he was actually courting a man instead of a woman. Just the thought of it was amusing.
Since the duel was over, Prince Isaac decided to escort Ethan back to his Flying Ship and even stayed for a bit to have so tea with him.
Of course, he did his best to dissuade her from leaving the city, but Ethan had already made up his mind, so he apologized to the Prince and said that he couldn't stay any longer.
"I'm sure that if Fate wills it, you will return here in the City of Cashel, My Lady," Prince Isaac bowed. "Until then, I will look forward to hearing the tale of your journey. Just rember to always lock the door of your room. Lord Godfrey is not a very trustworthy person."
"Thank you, Your Highness," Ethan replied. "I will keep that in mind."
Prince Isaac bid Ethan with a heavy heart and returned to the city with his Knights.
"You're such a sinful woman, Lady Ethel," Nicole said in a teasing tone. "Maybe we should fix
that. What do you say?"
Ethan smiled faintly before shaking his head.
"The fun and gas are now over," Ethan stated. "Tomorrow, we leave for World's End."
After saying those words, Ethan returned to his room and waved his wand to undo the effect
of the potion.
Lady Ethel had already served her purpose, so he would be able to sleep peacefully knowing that he wouldn't have to drink the Polygender Potion, ever again.
