Abe the Wizard

463 Yveline“s Level up

When they saw Wizard Lorenzo start to dig in, the other guests also stepped up and took a bowl of steamed egg. As soon as the other 3 Linate City Elite Wizard put a spoonful in their mouth, they noticed a difference. There was a rare sense of enlightenment for elite wizards that arose from their minds.

The smell was clearly more intense than in the Forgotten Land. Although to other people, this scent could just make them fantasize about food, to Wizards, it could move their heart, and therefore, their level.

Not all wizards were young like Abel. Normally it took tens of years to become an official wizard, and normally these elite wizards would have at least a hundred years of experience. During these times, they had gone through a lot, losing people who were close to them, as well as long years of training alone. Therefore, it was very hard to get any big emotions out of them.

Every time an elite Wizard’s soul was moved, it would change up their soul a little, giving them a new perspective on the world. Normally it would take years if not tens of years until then could run into an opportunity like this.

At this moment, all 3 of the elite wizards looked intoxicated as they slowly chewed on the steamed egg. Soon, they woke up again from this momentary bliss, and a spark of regret emerged from their faces.

“Lorenzo, I really shouldn’t have gone to Forgotten Land when you invited me last time!” Wizard Nigel sighed.

“Yeah Lorenzo, if we knew Grandmaster Abel’s food is so much better than the one in the Forgotten Land, we would not have gone!” Wizard Allenby added.

“Too bad; we wasted the opportunity last time. If this was the first time we tried these dishes, the effect would definitely be much stronger!” Wizard Eddington said furiously.

Abel’s ‘Rabbit Essence’ could move the soul of a person, but this effect would slowly wear off throughout time. The first time trying it would be the most effective, so it was no wonder these wizards were regretting their earlier visit.

If they tried these dishes at Abel’s banquet, it could ease up the training of these 3 elite wizards for at least a few years.

The Kingdom of St Pierrt’s lord of management Duke Sterton quietly wiped away a drop of tears from his eyes. He was known for his strength when ruling, and at this moment, looked vulnerable. It seemed as if the food reminded him of something he had almost forgotten.

The Kingdom of St Ellis’s Duke Earnest also put a spoonful of steamed egg in his mouth, and he was stunned. There was not a single bit of emotion in his face; he only tightly squeezed on the little bow. He was using so much force that even his veins had popped out.

As all the guests were drenched in emotion upon trying the food, a scent of level up suddenly shocked awake all the wizards on the spot. Every wizard was extremely familiar with this scent. it was what all of them had been chasing after all their lives.

By this point, Wizard Yveline was already drenched in the scent of level up. The past 10 years of pressure had been unleashed all of a sudden. His hands grew weak, and his bowl slipped from his hand.

“Ching!” Wizard Morton flashed his hand and unleashed a ‘telekinesis’. The steam egg was then surrounded by white light the moment before it touched the ground. Afterward, it appeared on the table again.

All the wizards in the spot let out a big breath of relief. They all knew they shouldn’t interrupt a Wizard during the process of leveling up. If necessary, they would even need to assist. This was the moral code of a Wizard.

If that bowl had really dropped to the floor, it would most likely wake up Wizard Yveline from this state. And by that point, the scent of leveling up would fade away.

“Teacher, quickly help Wizard Yveline to the office so he can have enough mana to level up!” Abel whispered.

Wizard Morton nodded and gently wrapped Wizard Yveline’s hand around his shoulder. In a flash of white light, both of them disappeared from the hall. Wizard Murphy was also worried, so he ran towards the office as well.

The Kingdom of St Ellis’ Elite Wizard Edmond knew who Yveline was, so we explained, “That’s Wizard Yveline. He is a genius from the Duchy of Carmel. He became a wizard before he even reached 30 years old, but around ten or twenty years ago, he got badly injured in a conflict with the Duchy of Keyen. He hasn’t been able to level up ever since, but finally, he did today!”

“The rumors are real, Grandmaster Abel’s food can really help Wizard level up!” Said Bernie with a face full of shock as he watched Wizard Yveline disappear.

“I don’t know why I eat this food every day, but I’m still not a rank 7 wizard!” Said Abel helplessly stretching his hand.

“Grandmaster Abel, I can basically guess the reason!” Said Wizard Lorenzo with a smile.

“Wizard Lorenzo, what do you know! Tell us quickly!” Said Bernie with a face full of curiosity.

“There is some substance in Master Abel’s dishes that can touch the heart of every man. I believe everyone here has felt it!” Said Wizard Lorenzo looking around the guests.

All the guests were still holding their bowls. Although they were distracted a little by Wizard Yveline level up, the effect still hadn’t worn off. Upon hearing Wizard Lorenzo’s theory, they all couldn’t help but nod.

“I believe all the elite wizards here can clearly feel this heart touching feeling impacting our soul, so all of you should thank Grandmaster Abel. This taste eased up the hardship of our training for at least a few years!” Wizard Lorenzo continued.

There were 6 elite wizards on the spot. At that moment, they all stood up and gave Abel a bow. They really owed him a favor.

“I have investigated the identity of every wizard who has leveled up in your restaurant. Grandmaster Abel, I promise this is only a one-off investigation!” Wizard Lorenzo explained as he looked at Abel.

He then continued, “Every one of those wizards was stuck at a bottleneck for tens of years. The only thing they lacked was an opportunity to nourish their soul, and Grandmaster Abel’s dishes have this ability.”

Abel didn’t want to take such a big responsibility, and what Wizard Lorenzo had said had put him in an awkward situation. If what Wizard Lorenzo said was true, he couldn’t keep selling his food like normal.

“Wizard Yveline was clear evidence of this!” Said Wizard Lorenzo again.

Abel had become unhappy. If what Wizard Lorenzo had said was leaked to the public, it would bring him a lot of trouble.

“But of course, Grandmaster Abel’s food is not effective with all Wizards. Among the countless wizards in Linate who had tried Grandmaster Abel’s food, only 4 of them have leveled up, now 5 including Wizard Yveline.” Said Wizard Lorenzo changing up his tone.

“So you are basically saying as long as a bottleneck wizard keeps eating these dishes, they will one day level up as well?” Said Bernie in confusion.

“Of course not. This is the second time I ate with Grandmaster Abel, and I have also tried the food in the Forgotten Land one was. After every time I can feel this impact in my soul decrease, maybe by the 7th or 8th time I try this, it will be completely ineffective. The only thing that will be left is this extraordinary taste!” Wizard Lorenzo exclaimed.

“So basically, you have ten chances at most. If you eat with Grandmaster Abel with these ten chances you have, you will maximize your chance of leveling up!” Said Bernie in a scary voice gazing at the steam egg in front of him.

“But who will have the chance of eating at Grandmaster Abel’s place for ten days in a row?” Said Wizard Lorenzo looking at Abel with an eye full of hope.

“Who? Grandmaster Abel, I have quite a few wizards in my family who had been stuck for tens for years. I’ll tell them all to come eat with you for 10 days, how about that?” Bernie asked without a single hesitation.
