Chapter 60: Unanimous

After a good night's rest, when the sun rose the next day, Ethan and Arthur continued to improve their hut as originally planned.

Neither of them is ready to leave here for the next month.

In this world of Wonder Woman, there are a lot of valuable things, but none of them are available to them now. And most of the things don't have any clues, so it's better to stay here quietly and sort out the existing resources.

He has always wanted to find a suitable plane and focus on studying the energy of time and space, but unfortunately he has always lacked a suitable opportunity. This time, it was a mistake to meet his request.

Originally, he thought that the people on Paradise Island would not agree to him staying here, so he was ready to leave Paradise Island and find a place nearby to spend the month quietly.

I didn't expect things to turn so suddenly, depending on the situation, Hippolyta was very likely to ask herself to take Diana away.

"If she speaks, shall I say yes or not?"

Of course he didn't want to agree, Diana was a child now, what was he going to do with him? And life in the Sea of Calm was not necessarily safer than that of Paradise Island, and he really couldn't guarantee that Diana would live a better life if she left with him.

"Ethan, Arthur, I'm coming for you!"

Just as he was thinking about the bear child, Diana's voice had already come from the woods. It was clear that her mother was reluctant to let her approach her, at least not until she had really made up her mind.

Diana was not a good baby in any way, so even though the queen had arranged for the soldiers to monitor and intercept them not far away, the girl still ran through the woods to the place where they lived.

"Good morning, Diana. ”

Arthur didn't wear his silver armor, just a casual T-shirt and plain jeans.

They were all brought back from the Biochemical Plane, and after he found these modern clothes comfortable and easy to wear, he was reluctant to wear his old clothes.

"Good morning, Arthur. ”

Looking up and down Arthur's clothes, Diana turned her attention elsewhere.

"Can you teach me swordsmanship today?"

As a knight, Arthur was always polite, even if he was a child. And as a guest at someone else's house, he is not averse to teaching a child, just to pay the rent.

Through last night's simple teaching, he also found that Diana's talent is particularly good, and she can quickly grasp the key points with almost a little guidance, maybe she can master all the foundations and lay a solid foundation this month.

"After I've taught you some basics, you'll probably have to practice on your own, and you see that we haven't figured out our dwellings yet. ”

Diana looked at the poor cabin and said that she had a hut that could be lent to two people, and that there was no need to build a separate one here.

"Ah, I'm afraid not, you know that we have made an agreement with Her Majesty that we will not leave this area and enter other areas of Paradise Island. ”

"Ah, I forgot about it. Diana didn't understand why her mother restricted the range of movement between the two of them, she just knew that it was very difficult to get her mother to change her mind. So she quickly gave up on her plan to let the two of them go to her secret hut to sponsor: "Then I'll help." ”

"No, you can continue to learn swordsmanship with Arthur, he is a very good teacher when it comes to swordsmanship, especially the basics. ”

Ethan had been silent until he suddenly spoke, and then glanced at Arthur.

"I went around to see if there were any suitable materials to strengthen the cabin. ”

Walking straight into the woods, it didn't look like he was looking for building materials at all, and he didn't stop until he walked far away.

"Your Majesty, I think this place should be far enough away that Diana won't notice it. ”

Hippolyta spun out from behind a thick tree trunk, having been hiding her form with the help of the environment, but not deliberately after a certain distance.

"Young magician, did you know I was going to come for you?"

"After talking to Antiope yesterday, I wondered when Her Majesty would come in person. Ethan nodded, he did expect Hippolyta to come to him, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.

Hippolyta nodded, magicians seemed to be a very smart bunch of people, and it was not surprising that they were able to get some information from Antiope and deduce their own actions.

"So, you guessed what I was looking for you for, right?"

"It's a bit of speculation. ”

Hippolyta briefly recounted the contradiction between Paradise Island and the god of war Ares (but she deliberately blurred Diana's identity, not to mention that Diana was the ultimate weapon against Ares), Ares could attack Paradise Island at any time, and there was no existence on the entire Paradise Island that could compete with it.

Therefore, Hippolyta hopes that when the day comes, Ethan will come to Paradise Island to take Diana to other worlds.

"No matter what the world is, as long as she can live in peace. She didn't have the luxury of letting Ethan take care of Diana all the time, she just wanted to use Ethan's ability to take Diana to other worlds, and it didn't matter if she left it alone.

In Hippolyta's eyes, Diana, who has the blood of the gods, as long as she does not clash head-on with the real gods, she is enough to protect her safety.

This is also the reason why she, who has always opposed Diana's cultivation, did not come forward when she saw Arthur teaching her daughter, and even never mentioned this point in this conversation. She has made up her mind to train Diana well so that she can become a qualified Amazon warrior!

Truth be told, Hippolyta's request was not excessive, and for a mage who could freely travel between multiple planes, it seemed like a gesture. The only trouble is that it may be hated by Ares, the god of war - it is still an existence that cannot break through the dimensional barrier, and it cannot pose a real threat to this mage at all.

"So ......"

Hippolyta felt that Ethan had no reason to refuse, not to mention that she was not ready to let Ethan help for nothing, there were still some families on Paradise Island, and it was not impossible to give him some as payment.

Unexpectedly, Ethan shook his head.

"Your Majesty, you may be mistaken about one thing. ”

"What's the matter?"

Hippolyta thought that Ethan was unwilling to offend Ares, but judging by his expression, it didn't seem to be the case, so she calmed down and waited for an explanation.

"My plane travel magic isn't mature. Ethan stretched out his hands and looked helpless: "That's why I fell into your territory...... If it's a full-fledged magic, don't you think I'm even sure where I'm going?"

"This ......"

"This magic of mine is still in the exploration stage, I can't be sure what kind of world I'm going to, and because of the instability of space-time energy, I can't be sure how long I can stay in that world, and I can't even be sure when the next time I use this magic will be?"

Ethan's words are true, but there are some things in it that are not mentioned.

"What I know for sure now is that I won't be able to stay with you for too long, a month for the shortest, a dozen more days if it's long, and then I'll leave here. And I don't have the right to choose. ”

"Like you said before, you want to send Diana to another world...... Unless you let me take her away in a month's time. Otherwise, I don't know when I'll be here again. ”

"Maybe a year from now, maybe ten years from now, maybe a hundred years from now! Not to mention that I don't know when Ares will trouble you, I don't have the ability to perceive what is happening in this world through the dimensional barrier. ”

I never thought that this would be the case.

After Ethan briefly explained his situation, Hippolyta could only smile bitterly, but could only feel speechless that she had rushed out to negotiate without even understanding the situation.

In this case, her previous plan was completely overturned. Originally, she used Ethan as an insurance, but now it has become a difficult choice between two or the other.

A month later, she just sent Diana away? And she didn't have the idea of hiding here all the time, and she could live in peace and security without Ares finding out.

"That's ...... so"

"Yes. Ethan nodded in affirmation, he was definitely not lying: "Actually, I wanted to concentrate on this magic for a month, and I only lived here because I came here directly, if Her Majesty had refused us to stay yesterday, Arthur and I would have left by now." ”

Hippolyta nodded, she now understood the root cause of Ethan's stay on Paradise Island, and believed that he really had no special intentions for Paradise Island, but this made her feel more and more depressed.

Her Majesty, who was not reconciled, finally asked: "Is there really no way to improve that magic of yours?" or to leave a way that can be used for communication." "As long as you can communicate, you can call for help, and at least you can have more hope.

Ethan wanted to say that if it was Merlin, it wouldn't be a problem, but for a little mage like himself who had just touched the threshold and chose a particularly difficult path, it was too difficult for a strong man.

I was embarrassed to say that I couldn't do it, so I had to say it in a different way: "If my magic can make great progress, maybe there are some possibilities." But that would require a huge amount of time and space energy for me to study......"

At this point, Ethan and Hippolyta remembered something in their minds, and that thing happened to be on Paradise Island.

Almost instantly, the atmosphere suddenly became eerie.
