Chapter 322 The Salmon Leaps Through Ancient Dreams

When Ethan woke up the next day, Emma was no longer beside him.

To his surprise, his body felt so refreshed as if he had slept for twelve straight hours. He no longer felt any soreness or aches, which had been plaguing him ever since he fought against the Water Dragons created by Sebastian for training.

“Feels good, right?” Ethan’s Other Half said in a teasing tone. “You’re missing a lot, my boy. Now that your body is in peak condition, let’s go out and hook up with Lilian. Trust me, she won’t even resist!”

Ethan ignored his Other Half’s suggestion and got out of bed. He tidied it up a bit before pulling on his robes.

A glance at the clock on the wall told him that it was only six in the morning. Their classes wouldn’t start until eight, so he still had plenty of time to have breakfast and take a quick shower before attending his morning classes.

The moment he left the Master bedroom, he caught the scent of freshly cooked food in the air.

When he descended the stairs, he immediately saw a humming Emma placing plates filled with food on the dining table. Clearly, she was in a very good mood, and there was even a faint smile on her face.

Lilith was also there, sitting on top of the table. She was looking at Emma with a knowing stare, understanding why she was in a good mood today.

“Good morning,” Ethan greeted the two with a smile.

“Good morning, Master,” Emma, who stopped humming, replied with a smile.

“Good morning, Master,” Lilith greeted. “It seems that you had a good sleep last night.”

Ethan nodded. “I did.”

The handsome young man then glanced at Emma, making the latter blush.

This sudden change in her expression made the black cat sitting on top of the table shake her head helplessly.

‘If only I had found Master first, then I would be the one in her place,’ Lilith thought. ‘If only I knew, I wouldn’t have objected to my mother’s decision to enroll me here!’

Just like Emma, Lilith was supposed to be sent to Brynhildr Academy. However, she rejected it and chose to look for Ethan on her own.

Unfortunately, her method didn’t work, which was now causing her a great deal of regret.

‘Well, it doesn’t matter,’ Lilith eyed the two teenagers. ‘I don’t need to be Master’s Promised One to be close to him.’

After reaffirming her resolve, the black cat started to eat the moment Ethan started eating.

Their breakfast was actually quite simple.

Toast, bacon, and eggs. But, for some reason, it tasted better than usual, making Ethan eat a lot. After that, Emma poured him some coffee before wiping his lips with a napkin.

This movement was so natural that it almost made Lilith vomit sugar then and there.

“Master, I have already sent a report back to the Meredith Clan about your encounter with Lily’s family,” Emma said. “For now, I didn’t ask them for reinforcements. I simply informed them of the situation. I hope you don’t mind.”

“I don’t mind,” Ethan replied before taking a sip of his coffee. When he was done, he placed the cup on top of the table and glanced at his Promised One. “Have you seen any visions lately?”

Emma hesitated for a bit before speaking out her mind.

“I’m not sure if this is a vision, but last night, I saw a dream,” Emma replied. “I dreamed of a round table, surrounded by runes, with each one representing an animal.”

Emma closed her eyes as if trying to recall every detail of her dream, making sure that she didn’t miss anything.

“Stag, Bull, Cat, Raven, Salmon, Horse, Eagle, Wolf, Dragon, Butterfly, Boar, Fox, and Bear,” Emma listed. “At the center of the table was a symbol of a serpent that was eating its own tail. There was also someone chanting in the background…”

Emma then began to recite the chant that she heard in her dream. Her memory was very strong to the point that she could recall things clearly, similar to someone who had an Eidetic memory.

—————————

“In shadows deep, where mysteries entwine,

A serpent's dance, a circle divine.

Ouroboros, eternal, in coils so tight,

A tale of beginnings, an endless night.”

“With scales that shimmer, a warm embrace,

Swirling eternity, a timeless grace.

Biting its tail, in a graceful ballet,

A symbol profound, in night and day.”

“From ancient realms to the present's hold,

Ouroboros whispers, secrets unfold.

A serpent's wisdom, in cycles spun,

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

The dance of life beneath the sun.”

—————————

Emma opened her eyes as she said the last verse, looking at Ethan as if she was in a trance.

“In Mimir's stream, where wisdom gleams,

The salmon leaps through ancient dreams.”

Ethan’s hand shook a bit as he held the handle of his cup.

Although Emma didn’t know the meaning of her dream, it was clear to him that what she saw had a connection with the Order of Ouroboros.

An order in which Fortis Dud was once a member.

Now, Ethan was part of this secret society, and he was one of the animals depicted in the chant.

Even now, he still didn’t know the purpose of this organization because he was waiting for Fortis Dud to explain things to him.

The last thing that he told him was that they would talk again when he returned to the academy. However, the founder of Dud Manor had yet to make any effort to make contact with him.

‘I hope he talks to me soon,’ Ethan thought. ‘I have a lot of questions to ask him.’

Ethan’s reaction didn’t escape Emma’s and Lilith’s gaze.

Although they were curious about it, they decided to not say anything. If it were really important, their Master would tell them about it.

Since Ethan didn’t say anything, it meant that it was something that he didn’t want them to know, or he still didn’t fully understand it himself.

The handsome young man wanted to share the information he knew to his Protectors, but he put that on hold for the time being.

He wanted to talk to Fortis Dud first and confirm whether he was allowed to mention anything about the Order of Ouroboros to those who were not part of their secret organization.
