Chapter 335 A Wild Goose Chase

Half an hour before midnight, the Oswald Residence was as quiet as it could be.

All the lights were out, and everyone was peacefully asleep in their rooms.

At least, that was how things were supposed to be.

Four people quietly left their rooms and went to their respective positions.

Bruce and Erik stood in front of Ethan’s door, while Philip and Dennis hovered just outside of Ethan’s window using their flying broomsticks.

Part of their plan was to ensure that their target wouldn’t be able to flee, so they made sure that all possible escape routes were covered.

Bruce lightly tapped the handle of Ethan’s door, unlocking it silently.

After making sure that the spell did its work, he lightly turned the knob and slowly opened the door.

Once he and Erik managed to get inside the room, both of them glanced at each other before raising their hands at the same time.

““Impediendum!””

The two shot paralyzing spells at the bump on the bed. As if to make sure that the spell really worked, Bruce and Erik cast the spell one more time, smoothly hitting their target.

Bruce then pulled the blanket down in order to grab hold of the teenage boy who was hidden under it.

To their surprise, Ethan wasn’t there.

Instead, they only found two pillows that were arranged right next to each other, making it look like a human was sleeping under the blankets.

‘Sh*t!’ Bruce cursed silently before opening the window of the room. “That brat isn’t here.”

Philip and Dennis glanced at each other in dismay. They had clearly seen Ethan enter the room an hour ago, so they were certain that he was inside.

But after seeing that their target was not inside his room, the four people decided to investigate.

Their first suspicion was that Ethan was hiding inside Emma’s room. But they were reluctant to enter it since she was a girl, and she was their guest.

In the end, Philip remembered a certain tracking spell that he practiced during his hunting days.

This spell was very effective in finding animal tracks because their footprints glowed even in the dark.

“Vestigium!”

Immediately, faint blue marks appeared inside the room, revealing Ethan’s footsteps.

Philip could trace back Ethan’s most recent activity, allowing him to look for the teenage boy, who suddenly disappeared out of nowhere.

“The steps lead to the window,” Philip frowned. He then used his broom to land on the ground before casting his magic for the second time.

“Vestigium!”

Immediately, he found a set of shoe prints, leading towards the stables.

Finding their lead, the four men sneakily made their way toward the stable to hunt their target.

After arriving at the stables, they found that the shoe prints didn’t go inside, making them think that Ethan was just having a late-night stroll in the middle of the night.

For them, this was the perfect opportunity to hunt him down. The farther he was from their residence, the less chance their family would find out about their evil scheme.

They all increased their pace in order to catch up with the young man, whom they were confident would soon fall into their hands.

Two kilometers away, a pair of shoes were moving on the ground despite not having a person wearing them.

Ethan’s Other Half had used a spell on the young man’s shoes, making them move autonomously.

The young man, with the help of the two helpers in his Sea of Consciousness, had devised a plan to hoodwink the four men of the Oswald Family.

Ethan’s Other Half used his magic to make the shoes move in order to send the men of the family on a wild goose chase.

Sebastian, on the other hand, proposed that Ethan used his Fae Magic, Duplici, to create a clone of himself to wander in the opposite direction.

If the shoes failed to catch the men’s attention, the clone would make his appearance and lure the men away from the house.

The third plan was devised by Ethan himself.

He had talked to Luna and Chloe about his plan using the ability of the Guardian Rings. The young man had two sets of these rings, and he was wearing both of them on his fingers.

With this, he told his two lovers what the men of the family were planning to do when everyone was asleep.

So, right after leaving his room, Ethan used his Wind Dance to fly toward the window of Luna’s room.

His plan was simple.

He would hide inside Luna’s room, which was the safest place inside the house.

While the four men were busy chasing after a pair of shoes that were running nonstop, Ethan was resting between Luna and Chloe, with the two girls hugging him like a pillow.

To ensure that all bases were covered, he hid under the blanket, leaving the two girls’ heads poking out of it.

With this, Ethan was able to get a good night’s sleep while also basking in the warmth and softness of the bodies of his two lovers, who were more than happy to hug him in their sleep.

Meanwhile, outside of the Oswald Residence…

“Damn!” Bruce angrily threw one of Ethan’s shoes away due to frustration. “That kid played us good!”

“Smart kid,” Philip commented. “He reminds me of me when I was his age.”

The corner of Dennis’ and Erik’s lips twitched after hearing their Grandpa’s comment.

All of them were tired and cold after running after the pair of shoes that had been running happily just a minute ago.

Sensing that something seemed amiss, all four of them used their broomsticks and flew close to the ground, following Ethan’s shoe prints.

It didn’t take long before they caught up to the pair of shoes, which enraged Bruce to no end.

“Let’s go back,” Bruce said in annoyance. “Once I get my hands on him, I’ll strangle him good!”

As if waiting for that moment, they heard a chuckle not far from them.

There, they saw Ethan hovering in the air with a pair of Fairy Wings and looking at them with a teasing smile on his face.

As soon as they noticed his presence, Ethan flew away in haste, heading towards the forest.

The four angry men didn’t follow him right away thinking that this might be another one of his schemes.

“That boy is a Dud, right?” Philip frowned. “How the hell is he using magic then?”

“Should we follow him?” Dennis asked. “We will not be able to use our brooms inside the forest, and it can be dangerous at this time of day.”

After a short conversation, the four men decided to return to their home and just sleep for the night.

They were already exhausted and cold after going on a wild goose chase across the countryside.

All of them were disappointed, but they got something out of this experience.

The hateful young man was very sly and shouldn’t be underestimated.

“He might have won today, but tomorrow is another day,” Bruce stated. “We will get him next time.”

This was the only thing that he could say in order to keep the morale of their group raised.

“Tomorrow, let’s take him fishing,” Philip commented. “The lake has still not frozen over. It will be a good place to teach him a lesson.”

“Good idea!” Dennis grinned. “We’ll let him have a good swim with the fishes tomorrow.”

The four men chuckled as they all started to plan a new scheme to teach Ethan a lesson.

What they didn’t know was that they were messing with the wrong person.

They would soon realize that taking Ethan fishing was a mistake.

A very big mistake that they would soon find out the hard way.
