After the Teleportation Circle on Lizer island was set, Abel connected it to the Golden Castle’s giant Teleportation Circle.

The way back was simple, as all he needed was to jump in the Teleportation Circle with his summons. Although it was quite far away, he had used a lot of strengthening materials, so it would be fine.

It was made using the best, and it wasn’t much considering how wealthy Abel was.

—

After he returned, he left God Rank Five in Doff’s Divine Realm as a backup. That way some of his gods wouldn’t have to stop working when things happened

As long as God Rank Five didn’t appear next to Abel, no one would think it was his Summon.

Of course, Abel would also bring God Rank Five along to his training in the Dark World. As a rank 38 wizard, it was still very strong.

Wizard Hawthorn’s death had caused a big commotion in the central continent once again. Saint Castle was not a deserted place. It was on the border between elves and humans, and many organizations got the news.

No matter how badly the Wizard Union wanted to cover it up, the dragons did not go along, since what the wizards had done had angered them greatly.

Although Abel was not injured and the dragons did not actually start a war with the Wizard Union, their relationship had never been this bad. The dragons deliberately spread the details of Wizard Hawthorn’s death through their connections.

Since information about God Ranks was not that common to receive, the speed at which this news spread was also unexpectedly quick.

Almost every big organization learned that Wizard Hawthorn was killed at Abel’s own hands, and the fact that the Wizard Union had bowed down to the dragons.

Indeed, the Wizard Union appeared weak, and Abel was the key factor that no one had seen coming. But the truly powerful beings on both sides still had not shown themselves.

Luckily the dragons were not too greedy. If they really wanted to fight it out with the Wizard Union, they had the forces to do so with Abel on their side.

——-

Meanwhile, in the Wizard Union…

A Law-Defying wizard felt his heart drop. It was Wizard Hardy, the manager for the Intelligence Department.

Although Abel had destroyed all the documents about himself during his last invasion into the Wizard Union Headquarters, Hardy had memorized almost everything that had happened to Abel as a professional.

Almost all of Abel’s enemies had eventually been killed!

At first he had been very happy that the Wizard Union was willing to talk things out with Abel, but he totally did not see the situation coming where Wizard Hawthorn would suddenly destroy everything they had established and escalate the situation.

Now, all he could think about was what had happened to all of Abel’s enemies

During the operation against Abel, all ninety-eight officers of the Intelligence Department were killed by him. Now that Wizard Hawthorn was dead too, he was the only one left!.

Just thinking about it gave him chills!

He had been injured a little by the angry energies of the God Rank wizards the day Wizard Hawthorn was killed. He should be resting right now, but he just couldn’t sleep. Every time he closed his eyes he felt like he would be murdered.

But at the same time, he wouldn’t tell anyone about his worries, if he did, everyone would start to laugh at him. Even the Wizard Union wouldn’t want a weak chicken to be a manager.

——

After three more days, the dragons and the Wizard Union came to an agreement again.

In the end, they were at a crucial moment where the Demon from Beyond could return at any time. The dragons did not want to start a war unless Abel was really killed.

Abel didn’t know what benefits the Wizard Union gave the dragons, but Abel soon received a message from Headmaster Eugene.

During these three days, the Holy kingdom had not stopped attacking the second line, since they had not realized that Thief God Milton was gone. Furthermore, they thought attacking the second line would damage the Wizard Union’s reputation in the central continent.

Beyond that, the Holy Kingdom even increased their attacks on the Warding Wall of Castle Doomsday, taking care to target its weakest spots.

If things continued, the third line might soon fall into the attack range of the Holy Kingdom!

Therefore, the Wizard Union settled things with the dragons in just three days and re-established a communication channel with Abel.

——

Headmaster Eugene arrived at the Golden Castle and requested a meeting with Abel.

“Headmaster Abel, it will only benefit the Holy Kingdom if we start a war with the Wizard Union right now. But after we deal with the Demon from Beyond, every Dragon Headmaster will have your back if you wish to start a war with the Wizard Union!” he told Abel firmly.

“Headmaster Eugene, I understand, but are you really going to let the Wizard Union go as easily as this?!” Abel was still feeling irritated.

“Headmaster Abel, of course not. I only agreed to be the middleman again after the Wizard Union gave us a large amount of valuable resources. Of course, they will pay you as well, so don’t miss the opportunity!” Headmaster Eugene smiled mercilessly.

After all, headmaster Eugene cared about the well-being of other dragons, and the amount of resources the Wizard Union had provided was enough for them to nurture a generation of Half-gods.

Half-gods were not easy to create, even for the powerful dragons.

Considering how limited the resources of dragons could be, talent was not enough to guarantee the creation of a true power, so the Wizard Union’s offer was too good to reject.

“Headmaster Eugene, I agree to meet with the Wizard Union, but this time I will bring five God Ranks along!” Abel finally relented.

Since that was the number of Summons he formerly had, he would not expose God Rank Five. Of course, he would not bring Thief God Milton, since he couldn’t do much in face-to-face battles, and the Wizard Union would not miss the opportunity to kill him!

“Headmaster Abel, I will bring Headmaster Carlos as well, just to make sure everything is ok!” Headmaster Eugene patted his chest.

Headmaster Carlos was a God Rank Red Dragon, so he was even stronger than Headmaster Eugene. As a blue dragon, Eugene’s preferred field of battle was out in the ocean.

“Headmasters Abel, the Wizard Union suggested six locations, please pick one!” Headmaster Eugene handed a letter over.

Abel looked down the list and saw they were all spread throughout the central continent.

Abel handed the letter back and said, “No need, let’s just go with the Saint Castle again!” Saint Castle was not a location marked on the letter, but he liked the place.

Also he had killed Wizard Hawthorn there, so he felt a little more confident picking it.

“No problem, I’ll tell the Wizard Union. Headmaster Carlos and I will check the place out first!” Headmaster Eugene smiled.

——

Afterwards, Abel recalled his five God Rank Summons as well as the Fire Tooth, and put them in his Monster Ring.

“Headmaster Abel, the Wizard Union agreed, but this time they will send out nine God Rank wizards to match our forces!” Headmaster Eugene added.

It was clear that the Wizard Union was being extremely cautious. Although there were only seven God Ranks on Abel’s side, including the dragons, God Rank dragons were normally more powerful than God Rank wizards.

Furthermore, the fact that Abel had killed WIzard Hawthorn showed that he possessed God Rank power as well. Because they didn’t know how it had happened, they had to be even more cautious.

After all, a God Rank inside their own World was a mighty force. They could not only manipulate all the elements inside it, they could directly attack with their laws and cast thousands of spells at once!

However, Abel had somehow killed Wizard Hawthorn inside his own inner world, despite being a Half-god!

No matter what he did, the Wizard Union had to think again.

“Nine God Rank wizards, they really are giving us a lot of respect!” Abel couldn’t help but laugh.

There were only eleven God Rank wizards in the Wizard Union, and one of them had to stay on guard in the Howling Castle at all times, which meant there would only be one God Rank wizard left in their Headquarters.

Suddenly, he had an idea. God Rank Five teleported to the Goddess of the Hunt’s Divine Kingdom, which was closer to the Wizard Union Headquarters.

Afterwards, Five began to fly towards the Wizard Union Headquarters.

“Let’s go. Headmaster Carlos said everything is good at the Saint Castle!” Headmaster Eugene called for him.

Headmaster Carlos was not afraid of any ambushes, even if nine God Rank wizards had gathered. They wouldn’t be able to kill everyone, even if all eleven God Rank wizards had gathered.

Headmaster Carlos’ main mission had been to check if there were any suspicious Magic Circles. At the same time, he had set up a Teleportation Circle for Abel and Headmaster Eugene.

With the dwarves on their side, doing something like that was simple.

“Ok, let’s go!” Abel smiled in anticipation and stepped in the Teleportation Circle with Headmaster Eugene.

The wizards started their teleporting at the same time.
