Chapter 1085: Treating the Guests

By noon, Abel already changed into his suit so he could welcome the guests with Lorraine.

Druid Joseph, Druid Poly, and Druid Gaunt waited for anyone to show up inside the teleportation circle room. They were doing what they could to be the first ones to see them off. This was a small banquet, yes, but everyone coming was very close to Abel.

Under a flash of white light, two dwarves appeared on the large-sized teleportation circle. It was Wizard Hutton and his disciple, Wizard Bernie.

Druid Joseph smiled and bowed, “Wizard Hutton! Wizard Bernie! It’s so good to see you. I’ll bring you two in.”

“I’m familiar with this place,” Wizard Hutton smiled, then looked up, “Circle spirit! Circle spirit! Bring us to the ball .”

“Permit to access is passed. Teleportation will commence.”

Without Druid Joseph reacting, the circle spirit brought Wizard Hutton and Wizard Bernie away. Abel and Lorraine talked about something interesting, and they were the first to see Wizard Hutton and Wizard Bernie.

Abel laughed and greeted them, “Wizard Hutton! We meet again. You’re the first one.”

Wizard Hutton smiled, “That would be Lady Sainte, isn’t it? She must be the first one to be in your company.”

Wizard Bernie interrupted, “She’s the new master here! What are you saying, calling her a guest?”

Lorraine blushed with this statement, “I’ve heard you’ve were here, Bernie. It’s so good to see you after hearing that you’ve arrived on the central continent.”

Wizard Bernie bowed, “The pleasure is all mine, Lady Sainte.”

He was glad to see Lorraine as well, truthfully. However, Lorraine was no longer the same elf that escaped home many years ago. She was a leading figure of the elves. He had to remain respectful when he interacted with her.

Abel laughed and tapped Wizard Bernie on the shoulder, “Be more relaxed, Bernie! This is my castle. Just enjoy this place, alright?”

Wizard Hutton interrupted, “Master Bennett, I’ve heard from Bernie that you like collecting bases for hanging forts. I’ve got one here, if you don’t mind me handing it over to you as a gift.”

Abel bowed and thanked, “I love this, Wizard Hutton! Thank you so much!”

He stood up and stared at Lorraine in the eyes. The two of them smiled warmly at each other. Lorraine knew what the hanging fort base was. She was standing on one right now. It would be great if they could enjoy the view of staring down from another mountain or waterfall or the top of another building. Wizard Hutton outdid himself with this present. This was technically an extra portal item he was bringing. Not just the great view that could be seen from within it, but It also provided its own spirit, disguise, and all kinds of defensive mechanisms for Abel if he needed an extra place to hide.

Wizard Hutton was happy about the reaction he got, “I’ve gotten a bit thirsty, Master Bennet! You know, it’d be great if you got any…. You know, ha!”

It was common for small presents to be passed around in this kind of ball. Needless to say, there was no need to take the hanging fort base out of a portal bag immediately.

Abel laughed and clapped at one of his servants, “I’ve got a wine that won’t disappoint you if that’s what you mean.”

Wizard Bernie was keen, “If you don’t mind me butting in, I’d like a few glasses, no, buckets for today.”

Abel and Lorraine couldn’t help but shake their heads at that. That was when Druid Joseph and Wizard Hal teleported right in front of them.

“This building is beautiful! Master Bennett, welcome to this new place!” Wizard Hal laughed, then looked towards Loraine, “It’s a great honour to see you, Lady Sainte.”

Lorraine quickly returned a bow, “You’ve been too kind, Wizard Hal.”

Abel liked how Wizard Hal was focusing on the golden castle immediately, “It’s a great place here. I’ll make sure to take you to some real scenery later.”

Wizard Hal handed a small box over, “Yes, Master Bennett. Before that, though, this is a small offering the lightning clan has. It’s a special gift from our clan.”

Abel took the box over skeptically, “What do you mean by that? From the Land of Lightning Fall?”

Wizard Hal laughed out loudly, “No, we can’t grow fruits there, as you know. It’s something else. Just open it and see for yourself.

Abel opened the small box and saw a total of ten “instantaneous movement” spell scrolls. This present really exceeded his expectations. The spell scrolls were not something regular. All of them were max level, which meant that the cost of producing any one of them would take at least an advanced wizard several decades and more. It was an understatement to call this a special thing of the lightning clan. The lightning clan did have many lightning element wizards, but the “instantaneous movement” could only be learned from the intermediate level. In this sense, the ten scrolls themselves were not so precious, but to have this quantity was really something else.

Abel quickly closed the box, “You’ve spent quite a bit of effort on this.”

He then handed it over to Lorraine. He didn’t need the teleport himself with items, but these scrolls could come in very handy to Lorraine.

Under a flash of white light, Druid Gaunt and Wizard Hume appeared in the middle of the hallroom. When Wizard Hume was about to speak, Wizard Clemens also appeared as well. Wizard Clemens didn’t seem very surprised to see Hume here, but Hume did have quite a reaction when he saw Clemens in the same place as him. Eventually, the two reached an understanding and looked at each other with wide grins on their faces. They were glad that both of them had made it to Master Bennett’s close circle of trusted clients and associates.

Wizard Clemens bowed to Abel, “I’ve heard about this castle long ago, Master Bennett. It’s much better than what we heared from the rumours.”

The intelligence department knew that Master Bennett was somewhere close to the Goddess Temple. Also, they were informed that the dwarves had constructed a castle for him, but they never expected it to be something of this magnitude. In fact, even without seeing the full face of this fort, they were struck with the simple extravagance that was on its outside. The law-defying wizards, especially. He and Wizard Hume could see that the golden castle utilized many magic tower methods and much more circles than regular towers. It could only be the work of the dwarves. Only they could bring this many ingredients to build something like this.

Wizard Clemens quickly thought of something he heard about recently. The dwarves just had 31 of their law-defying wizards in vegetative state resurrected outside of the Doomsday Defence Wall. This must’ve had something to do with what they were looking at now, he imagined.

Abel bowed seriously to Wizard Clemens, “Thank you so much, Wizard Clemens.”

In an instant, Wizard Clemens quickly understood what Abel’s gesture meant. Abel was thanking him for the information he provided before. He had no idea what Abel did with it, however. If Abel had to say it out explicitly, it’d be that he used the information he learned to head to the Lance Continent and unravel the terrifying schemes of the Nation of God.

While it would sound quite hideous like this, Abel was very sincere in the way he expressed his attitude. It’s the reason Wizard Clemens was here, after all.

Wizard Clemens smiled and took out a small bag, “A small present from me, then.”

No one here was weak, apart from Wizard Bernie. They all could feel the energy rupturing inside the small bag. Those were light stones that were sending energy waves outward. Ten of them, to be exact. Those were the lives of ten advanced sacred knights. Abel didn’t find them on his own. The Nation of God allowed these wizards to retrieve these because they launched an attack. That being said, of course, Abel had to synthesize the lower-tiers with his Horadric Cube later.

Wizard Hume laughed. “We had the same idea! Look, Clamens, I’ve got a bag too!”

Abel took over another bag of light stones. As he was smiling, Druid Poly just brought Druid Lendo and the three potion masters over to the hallroom.

“Master Muir , Master Balfour, Master Nolan! Welcome!” Abel rushed forward and bowed, “Welcome, Druid Lendo!”

Master Nolan seemed to be out of place, “This is the most elegant, splendid elven architecture I’ve ever seen! Master Bennett, I implore that you show it to every elves out there! I’ll sign a petition if that’s what it takes!”

Female elves were drawn to all things beautiful, including this castle.

Abel laughed and responded, “You’re also welcomed as a guest, Master Nolan.”

Of course, it was impossible to do as Nolan said and just let everyone in this place. The sheer amount of gold was going to ruin not just the perception of money but even the economy. So, without actually agreeing to the proposal, Abel went ahead and took over the presents the three potion masters handed over to him.

He was receiving three types of rare medicine ingredients. They were all very hard to get on their own. Not only were they very well preserved, but they were also fresh enough that he could plant much more in his herb garden than inside Blood Moor. He was even starting to think about expanding his farm, given how much extra space there was. The elves were really not doing a good job keeping the herb production steady. He figured that he better give them extra work to do, even if it was just for the sake of making them not so lazy.

Druid Lendo came forward and handed a box over to Abel, “Master Bennett, I greet you on behalf of Queen Lousia. This is my present to you on behalf of the elven Royal Palace.”

Abel opened a small box that was divided into 50 small squares. They had different kinds of seeds inside.

Druid Lendo explained, “I’ve heard that you like planting spiritual herbs, Master Bennet. These are the ones that the elves own. Since they are special, the elves never sowed them. Instead, they preserved them until a better time. A time like now.”

Abel could sense the subtle mana wave emitted out of these seeds. To make these grow into the spiritual herbs he wanted, he had to make sure to plant them somewhere close to the spiritual herbs so that they could continue to absorb mana. Most of them would have no effects whatsoever, but given that the elven royal palace preserved these, he imagined that these were much more effective than most imagined.

Abel smiled and put the box away, “I love this present, Druid Lendo. Thank Queen Luisa for me.”
