Abe the Wizard

Chapter 1147 - Coming to Visit



Chapter 1147: Coming to Visit

The days passed by. Abel was returning to the same life as usual. He was brewing potions, entering into the dark world to train and fight. He would also train his own preachers within the Nation of God. At times, he would use Izual’s divine bestowment to assassinate some preachers that weren’t his. It’s always quite easy to get his target. Because of how strong the guardian wing was at defending against enemies that were outside, most had become complacent at spotting enemies that were on the inside. Besides, since all the divine bestowment Abel had looked like accidents, the higher-ups of the Nation of God could never do much beyond suspecting the presence of external interference.

Actually, since most of the suspicions were towards some other divine spirits, even more, defensive power was placed outside of the guardian wing. After Abel picked away all the fruits that were on the wisdom tree, it took about one month on the central continent for the new wisdom fruit to mature thanks to the help of the three goddess statue fountain water. The original period was supposed to be eighteen months, but the fruit was now growing in just one month.

Even Abel was starting to feel bad for Wizard Luce. The last wisdom would’ve matured very quickly even without the fountain water, and if he were a few months late to head over to the Snow Spirit Mountain, he might’ve never known about the power of the wisdom fruit. He was starting to understand why Wizard Luce was so hesitant to leave at the time.

With all that’s said, even though the time for maturation went from 18 months to one month, Abel was still not satisfied. In his imagination, the fountain water should be accelerated so that the wisdom fruit could mature faster. As a matter of fact, however, the wisdom tree could only grow faster to a certain extent. So one month on the central continent, or equivalent to 20 months inside the dark world, would already be the absolute limit.

Abel made sure to do some calculations. Given that he was already consuming the wisdom fruit to increase his capacity for the power of Rule, he could increase his level 22 wizard rune by 15% every month. Combined with the result of his own training, he could just make it into the breakthrough stage within half a year.

Of course, he could also use the advanced light stone to meditate, given how fast he was absorbing the power of the Rule. He wanted to increase the effectiveness of his meditation such that he could generate more mana to reach a balance point for his mana and his power of the Rule. Before, the rate of his mana concentration would always exceed the rate of his power of Rule concentration, and he’s got no choice but to wait for the power of the Rule to grow slightly more on its own. Now, it was the opposite case. He needed to consider how many light stones he was spending because nine low-tier stones for one advanced stone was actually too much for even someone like him. Every day, he needed to use 90 low-tier light stones while he was training inside the dark world.

Frankenstein and his other wizard contract creatures also needed the light stones. Abel had to be very careful to make sure that he could get more light stones in the future. Before, he’s never been too worried about how many light stones he used. No matter how fast he was boosting his mana, he would’ve always had to wait for his power of the Rule to grow to a certain point first. Now, he had to consider balancing things the opposite way, which was by earning even more light stones. And no, he’s never thought that the discovery of the wisdom tree would just provide him a secure pathway to boost his strength. Before, the elevation of his power would always be mostly dependent on how many bosses he killed inside the dark world. He needed the help of the song of life to do that, as the bosses would only become harder the more he went over the dark world. The further he went down this path, the more difficult it would be to increase his strength.

This was somewhat ironic. He needed to become stronger first to kill the remaining bosses, which were Diablo and Baal, but without the wisdom tree, he would’ve had to kill these two bosses to become stronger. Luckily, the problem was solved before he even had to face it. After encountering the wisdom tree, his strength was starting to grow with the wisdom tree so that he could become stronger with it.

The research spirit’s voice rang, “Master, Wizard Dolan of the Wizard Union is here at the guest meeting hall.”

He brewed and spoke, “Pass a message to Wizard Dylan, research spirit. I’ve got one hour left before I finish the brew.”

Following that, he focused on the brew that he was currently making. As he began to gain more friends, Abel became a lot busier in his potion-making job. Apart from the light recovery potion, the mana potion, and the power potion, which were all “superpotions” that all the major organizations paid extra attention to, he would also provide a stable supply of the skin lotion and hair conditioners to the elves. He also got the master-level potions of the Wizard Union to take care of. Right now, the master alchemist rune inside of him was already full, but he was still missing something to make it to grandmaster alchemist.

Abel also got a taste of what it felt like to reach the bottleneck stage, although the class that he was experiencing it with was not his main class. It wasn’t like he cared less because of that, but he couldn’t find any record that would help him with this. As a matter of fact, there had never been a case of someone reaching full master alchemist state ever on the central continent. This had to do with how absolutely rare master-level potion ingredients were. To think that brewing potions alone could increase their levels would be something that was entirely impossible. It also had to do with the potion’s success rate. Even the three potion masters that were currently available at the Potionmaster Guild would’ve had a one out of five chance to create a master-level potion.

On the central continent, while some had tried to cultivate master-level herbs, they would’ve never produced the amount that was needed to satisfy the requirement of the potion masters. Master-level herbs were never so easy to be planted, as a lot of special requirements were needed for both the environment itself and the materials needed to grow the plants. This was the case for the elves, as they would only grow master-level herbs when they were doing it underneath the tree of life. If it wasn’t so, they would’ve had to plant the herbs at either extremely desolated locations or inside the ancient runes.

This was the case of the potion masters. Forgery masters, which was a subgroup that was within the potion master class, would require materials that were even more difficult to obtain. Minerals and metals were extremely hard to find, which would make it so that they had absolutely no way of going down their path. If Abel wasn’t moving from the outer sea into the portable cultivation base and created 9000 master-level bottles of potion on his own, he would’ve never made it to where he was at now.

Again, Abel was a very lucky case. He had both supply and demand working in his favor. He also had the privilege to eat rabbit essence dishes every single day and drink water spirit fruit juice that was synthesized twice. He had a tremendous supply of breakthrough items that were said to be the most effective on the entire central continent. Still, he remained stuck at the bottleneck stage.

“Sublimation!”

As Abel spoke, only blue remained within the rainbow light of the potion. Another pack of blue-quality potions was brewed successfully. He went ahead and took twenty crystal bottles and distributed the potions to them.

He looked towards the potions and said, “Store the potions in the warehouse.”

The research spirit made the twenty bottles disappear and placed them in the warehouse. The research spirit took care of where everything went.

Abel waited for Wizard Dylan, “Send me over to the guest meeting room, circle spirit.”

A white light appeared underneath him. Abel disappeared from the potion brewing lab and appeared in the guest meeting room.

Wizard Dolan was just drinking his juice, “Sorry to interrupt your work, Master Benentt!”

Abel bowed, returning Wizard Dylan’s, “Sorry for letting you wait, Wizard Dylan. I’ve just got some potion brewing missions to take care of recently!”

Wizard Dolansat back on the chair, “No, no no! It’s on me to come here without arranging a time for you!”

Abel was just sitting on the master’s seat. Butler Meyer was just sending juice for him before leaving.

Abel sipped on the juice and asked, “What business would you have here today, Wizard Dylan?”

Wizard Dolan was getting a bit tense, “I came here on behalf of the Wizard Union, Master Bennett. I’ve come here to ask if you know Wizard Abel?”

Abel was a bit taken by surprise. It felt weird being asked about himself.

Abel replied with a question, “Did something happen to Wizard Abel?”

Wizard Dolanreplied, “Wizard Abel owns stone giants, which have been a major interest of the Wizard Union. The stone giants are capable of increasing mining speeds. We are interested in negotiating with him, but ever since he was attacked in his last mission, there have been no sightings of him anywhere on the central continent. Just when we all thought that something happened to him, we heard he was back on the Holy Continent a few days ago.”

Abel remained silent. He never thought that Johnson would have such a long-lasting impact on the Wizard Union. He thought that it was already in the past, but the Wizard Union only continued their investigation. Still, it would make a lot of sense to keep looking for a contract creature that could dig up an entire mine in less than a day.

Wizard Dolan could see that Abel was hesitant, “You’ve saved my life before, Master Bennett. We’ve also fought together over the outer sea. I’m not going to keep a secret away from you.”

He continued, “The Wizard Union’s record showed that it was with your super-sized teleportation circle that Wizard Abel returned to the Holy Continent. The intelligence analysis spirit has guessed that Wizard Abel might have somewhat of a very unusual relationship with you. There has even been suspicion that you and Wizard Abel are the same person.”

Abel was finding it hard to keep his poker face on. He didn’t want the Wizard Union to know his secrets. He didn’t want to be exposed for mining on the frontline. If he was under surveillance by the Wizard Union, he would’ve never made it safely in and out of the dark world. Even if he appeared amidst the frontline, he would’ve become a major target of the Nation of God.

Wizard Dolan said with a relaxed smile, “To protect you, Master Bennett, Wizard Clemens withdrew any attempts to release this information. He then got me here.”

The research analysis spirit was a very important spirit to the Wizard Union. It was technically owned by the intelligence department, but it was open to several departments. There had to be a lot of things going on for Wizard Clemens to be able to suppress the major information Wizard Dolan described.

Abel smiled, “Thank Wizard Clamens for me. Also, if the Wizard Union really wants to find Wizard Abel, I’ll keep the golden castle shut permanently and cut all connection to the outside world.”

Abel didn’t care about the Wizard Union now. Unless the Wizard Union sent out a legendary figure, there would be no way that they could break through the golden castle, which was protected by the starlight defensive large circle. Still, doing that would make him lose an income in the form of the light stones. The amount he had wouldn’t last for long, and it would only reduce the rate at which he was continuing with his training. He would’ve never gone for something like a threat unless he felt the necessity to. He was only trying to make things clear. If the Wizard Union wanted to force anything to prove that he was Abel and make him head over to the frontline, he would’ve had to cut ties with the central continent and return to the Holy Continent.

Wizard Dolan said, “I’ve been through a lot with you, Master Bennett. I’ll help you out with this one. Golan and Doran also want that. If anyone were to doubt that you are Wizard Abel, a human, just get whoever that was to make an inquiry with the Moon Goddess. You are an elf recognized by the Moon Goddess. How will anyone dismiss that?

Abel raised the crystal cup in his hand, “Understood, Wizard Dylan. If you’ve got anything you want or need, just come to my place anytime.”

Wizard Dolanlaughed, “This delicious juice is all I need to be here. Master Bennett, I’ll come and help you out!”

As a matter of fact, Abel’s already left too many hints ever since he first became Bennett the elf. That was before he received recognition from the Moon Goddess. The transformation necklace couldn’t seal away his human presence. Also, if one was to analyze how Master Bennett was going all the way back to the Holy Continent to target the Snow Spirit Mountain wizard group, there were plenty of cues and information that would’ve given Abel away. If Abel Wasn’t a major potion master with many connections even inside the Wizard Union, he would’ve been a major criminal almost already. Due to the result of the analysis this time, things had been coming out of the surface. Still, even then, Wizard Dolan was only here to send a very kind reminder.
