Why Are All The Good Men Taken?

Three days after Ethan’s duel with Cedric…

“It will be hard to meet again soon, but I will write you letters,” Lilian said as she held Ethan’s hand. “Promise to write to me back?”

“Promise,” Ethan replied as he gave Lilith’s hand a gentle squeeze.

A moment later, Ethan took out a bracelet made of blue pearls from his storage ring and put it on Lilian’s wrist.

“These pearls have a calming effect, and they could also improve blood circulation,” Ethan explained. “They will also allow you to channel water magic more efficiently.”

Lilian didn’t expect that she would be getting a gift from Ethan, so she was very happy.

Perhaps, out of happiness, she stood on tiptoe and kissed Ethan’s cheek, making the latter stiffen.

“Thank you, Ethan,” Lilian said with a flushed look on her face. “I will treasure your gift.”
