Abe the Wizard

Headmaster Blair gazed at the badly injured back of that professional Barbarian with a tensed serious face. If the god of war’s holy spell could heal something like this instantly, it would be the most powerful holy spell in the Central Continent.

“The great god of war, please use your power to heal!”

He mumbled, and the strange energy gathered on the back of that Barbarian in a faint flash of white light.

His badly mangled wound began to shrink.

Although it didn’t fully heal, the result still made Headmaster Blair’s jaw drop. After all, every warrior of god could do the holy healing spell 3 times.

What he saw basically meant that as long as you didn’t die on the spot, you would be able to revive.

“Headmaster Blair, thank you! My internal injuries have drastically subsided. Maybe i just need to rest for a few days and I’ll be fine!” That professional Barbarian said in excitement after he got a feel for his body.

“You should thank the great god of war. He healed you with his power!” Headmaster Blair lowered his voice on the excited Barbarian.

“Yes headmaster, I will immediately go to the god of war temple and thank the god of war!” That Barbarian quickly replied.

“You are the last!” Headmaster Blair turned to the immobilized Barbarian with chronic injuries held up by 2 Barbarians.

“Please use the holy healing spell on me, headmaster!” An anticipated look emerged on that Barbarian’s face after seeing how effective it was on the previous 2 Barbarians.

Headmaster Blair nodded and began the spell again. A white light flashed again on an ancient totem from afar, and a bottle of lite healing potion was emptied from Doff’s portal bag.

Headmaster Blair reached his hand towards that profession, and a faint white glow flashed again. However, all that did was make that Barbarian a little energized. It did nothing to his injuries.

“Eh!” Headmaster Blair sighed, but he quickly realized his respect for the god of war, so he immediately added, “the holy spell can not heal your injuries. Perhaps this holy spell is meant to be used in battles targeting new injuries!”

The slightly energized face of that Barbarian dimmed down again as sorrow returned. He lost his hope.

“Even the great god of war gave up on me!” He mumbled.

“No my child. Do you still remember the grace of god? There are a few professions in even worse shape than you, and they were healed by the grace of god. They eventually became fighters of god, so as long as you remain faithful, the great god of war will reward you!” Headmaster Blair yelled.

“Headmaster, I will forever remain faithful!” That Barbarian pledged in certainty.

Soon, the power of this new Holy healing spell began to spread in the Battlecry plateau. The god of war was once again using his power to heal Barbarians.

Although there were only around 20 warriors of god, each of them could do a holy healing spell with 20 hours of praying.

This gave the Barbarians a new ray of hope, and countless injured Barbarians yearned to become a warrior of god as their status increased.

20 hours of faithful praying was a baseline set up by Abel since faithful praying was not like normal praying.

Even professional Barbarians could not concentrate more than 10 hours at once, so only madly loyal professionals could do 20 hours of faithful praying.

This meant that they could normally only do one holy healing spell every 2 days. Since there were only 20 warriors of god, Abel wasn’t actually using that many light healing potions.

Still, it brought the ancient totem more and more faithful prayers.

After a few days, the wizard union had gotten the news of Barbarians healing themselves with a new holy spell.

Ever since the Barbarian’s totem pole was stolen by a mad knight from the Holy Kingdom, there were rumors of god’s grace taking place from the temple.

This did not attract Wizard Clement from the head of the Wizard Union investigation department too much since he knew it was impossible.

The god of war was secretly locked up by the wizard union. Unless the wizard union was destroyed, there was No way it could escape.

The wizard union had always been keeping an eye on the Battlecry city. Even their use of the totem pole as a replacement to the god of war was approved by them.

The wizard unions needed Barbarians to enchant the forces in the front line.

Therefore, the wizard union always thought the Battlecry City temple was putting up a show to keep the Barbarians faithful despite losing the totem pole.

However, if the temple was healing people with a holy spell, the wizard union had to take action.

The most powerful wizards of the wizard union began to gather in their meeting room again.

“Everyone, I just got a confirmation from this report. One of our investigators has spotted a Barbarian warrior of god healing a badly injured Barbarian!” Wizard Clemens pointed at a piece of parchment and said.

The wizards lifted the parchment and started reading.

In the world ruled by wizards, they had a way of dealing with gods. They wouldn’t allow the existence of god’s alliance nor the creation of new gods.

Therefore, anything connected to a god would be huge.

No one wanted to be in the dark about the power of God before their ultimate battle with the demon from beyond.

“First, the Barbarians have lost their secret totem, so how could they connect with their god?” Wizard Joseph gazed and said with confusion.

The wizard union knew more about gods than anyone as they had a track record of killing gods.

Without a secret object, there was no way those Barbarians could connect with the god of war unless they found a new god.

However, how could the Barbarians change their faith so quickly after thousands of years of indoctrination?

Even without the totem pole or the god of war, the Barbarians would most likely maintain their tradition.

The wizard union knew the totem pole was slowly replacing the status of the god of war ever since they put the god of war in slumber. Maybe in the near future, the totem pole would become a special god-like existence.

The wizard union was not against gods like this. They were not powerful, and it could allow the wizard union to better manage the Barbarians.

“Wizard Clemens are you sure the god of war is still locked up!” Wizard Hume asked.

“According to this report, I am sure!” WIzard Clemens lowered his voice.

“Maybe a new god got involved?” Wizard Hume asked again.

“Impossible, there was no way the creation of a new god could escape the sight of our investigation department!: Wizard Clemens said in certainty.

There was no way to hide the energy of a newly created god. Therefore no new god could stay for long in any continent.

Therefore, a newly created god would often create a holy land for itself. If they wanted to roam in any continent, they would need to do it through the godsend, and the prerequisite for that was extremely strict.

 If a god did not inherit a proper way to do godsend, the person accepting the godsend would blast into pieces due to the immense force of god.

Any of these processes would generate large amounts of energy. Therefore there was no way the wizard union would miss it.

Wizard Clemens was confident. In a world ruled by wizards, the gods had no place to stand.

The only gods who remained were the ones who sided with the wizards but under their tight regulations. Creating new gods was impossible.

“Wizard Clemens, no need to mess around, just tell us your theory!” Wizard Hume laughed.

He knew wizard Clemens very well. Wizard Clemens would not gather them unless he had some idea.

“Everyone, i don’t have any evidence and some extremely prestigious figures are involved in this, so I can only tell you my analysis!” Wizard Clemens helplessly smiled.

“Since when did the wizard union need evidence? Just tell us your analysis and make a move!” Wizard Joseph said in irritation.

“Do you still remember that fully naked mad knight who charged towards the Howling Castle and got himself killed?” Wizard Clemens lowered his voice.

“Of course!” It was not long ago, and the wizards have been joking around with it.

“It is very likely that mad knight was the one who took the secret totem!” Wizard Clemens got to the point.

“What? How come we never knew about this?” Wizard’s Joseph’s jaw was dropped.

“No evidence. That Mad knight was going so fast no one saw his face other than Master Bennett, but considering his status, it is not good for the investigation department to investigate him.

Wizard Clemens continued.

“Just tell the whole story, we need more information!” A weird look emerged on Wizard Hume’s face when he heard the name.

“If that mad knight really was the one who took the secret totem pole, why would he want to strip himself naked and charge towards the howling castle? He should have more than enough time to return to the Evil Kingdom!” Wizard Clemens continued.

“So you are saying someone has intentionally stripped him naked and teleported him here?” Wizard Hume said in disbelief.

Only a legendary had the power to do something like this.

“I’ve asked Wizard Hal, the last thing to chase after that mad knight was Master Bennett’s powerful Beamon and Wizard Frankenstein!” WIzard Clemens kept going.

The wizards in the meeting were caught in an awkward position. A law-defying wizard had become someone’s contracted servant. If Master Bennett wasn’t so prestigious and did them so many favors, there was no way they would allow something like this.

“Master Bennett was too powerful. As far as I know, if Master Bennett wanted more followers, many law-defying wizards on the verge of death would gladly join him.”

“I’m very suspicious. Maybe the secret totem pole is with Master Bennett!” Wizard Clemens finally gave his final point.

“No, there is no way Master Bennett can control the totem pole. Only gods can do that!” Wizard Hume knew Abel, so he shook his head.

“Yeah, Master Bennett is not even on the spot. The analysis doesn’t work!” Wizard Joseph, who just respected the need for evidence, bit back.
