Abe the Wizard - Chapter 140

Chapter 140: Dark Wizard

“You say it’s a fat sheep every time. The last fat sheep only had 20,000 gold coins on it. It barely even covered the cost of operating my magic circle,” a heavy voice emerged from the communication sign.

“Teacher, I promise. It’s a fat sheep this time. I saw that he had a balance of 310,000 gold coins.” said the middle age novice wizard in excitement.

“Do you know who he is?” Said the wizard on the other side. He doesn’t seem to be too excited about the 310,000 gold coins since he kept asking for more details.

“I feel like he is just a rank 1 or 2 novice wizard. He doesn’t have a wizard badge, so he probably wasn’t even verified by the wizard union,” said the middle age novice wizard explained.

“Ok, not bad. Lure him to my place, and I’ll share some of the gold coins with you.” The voice of the Wizard from the other side began to show some interest.

Abel did not know what was waiting in store for him at all. He continued to look around the different shops, trying to elevate his thin knowledge of Wizardry.

“Junior brother!” A familiar voice came from behind. When Abel turned and looked, it was the middle age wizard who had just sold him the crystal cores. Abel felt a bit strange and asked, “Is there any problem?”

The middle-age novice wizard said, “When you paid for the crystal cores just then, you forgot to cover the balance in your magic gold card. That’s very dangerous, and you have to be more careful next time.

“Oh, thank you so much!” At that moment, Abel had just realized the balance in his magic gold card might be a little too big to carry around. It might attract bad intentioned people. Luckily, the middle age novice wizard reminded him.

The novice wizard said in a bit of embarrassment, “I just saw the balance in your magic gold card and remembered that my friend had some unique crystal cores that he wants to sell. Are you interested in buying some electric crystal cores? If you want, I can take you to my friend’s place. He is also selling some attribute-less crystal cores.

Abel did not have much response when he heard the middle age wizard said electric crystal cores. He didn’t even know how to make a rune sign; these materials were just for future training. However, when he heard the middle age wizard mention an attribute-less crystal core, his heart began to chime. These attribute-less crystal cores were often exclusively exchanged between official wizards, and they would only exchange once every 100 days. Therefore, these attribute-less crystal cores were tough to attain. However, hearing that the 2nd floor of this exchange ground had a stock, he might have a chance to get one, so he wanted to take a look.

Abel did not worry about his safety since he was in Caral City. Even if a slightly more significant amount of mana was unleashed, it would attract the attention of the wizards on guard. If a fight had broken out and even the official wizards on guard could not solve the problem, then at least four intermediate wizards would be teleported here immediately to solve it.

“Ok, I am very interested in attribute-less crystal core. Let’s go have a look,” said Abel with a smile.

“Junior brother, follow me,” seeing Abel agreed to his offer. He led Abel to where the corner of the exchange ground was located.

Abel realized the further they walked, the fewer people there were. Although he was still in the exchange ground, the place was deserted. He started to become suspicious, and he slowed down his steps.

“Junior brother, you see that shop in front of us? That’s where we are heading. We’ve arrived .” Said the middle age novice wizard, as he slowed down his stepped and pointed to a shop not far in front of him to Abel.

Abel focused his sight. Although the storefront in front of him was placed with merchandise, he did not see anyone moving inside. He had no idea why anyone would rent a shop here.

“Little brother, please go in,” the middle age novice wizard slowly came to a halt, allowing Abel to step in. Since Abel had arrived, he did not pay too much attention. He thought he might as well step up and take a look at the merchandise in the storefront.

There were large amounts of crystal cores placed on the shelf. He moved along. He noticed a large amount of fire crystal cores, Poison and ice crystal cores, and even some electric crystal cores.

Abel continued to walk along. Suddenly, everything in his surroundings changed. He realized he was standing in an open field surrounded by big trees, and the middle age novice wizard behind him had disappeared as well.

“Oh no, I’ve been scammed.” Abel felt his heart drop as he muttered to himself.

Black was a beginner wizard. Normally he was the owner of a seven stories magic tower in Duchy of Keyen. However, sometimes he would also do some dirty things. Yes, he was a dark wizard.

Although Duchy of Keyen had quite a lot on consecrates for wizards, they were far not enough to sustain Black’s spending. He did not have any special inheritance, so he wouldn’t make any rune signs and potions. Sometimes, he would go hunting some soul beast to get some income, but he couldn’t do it very often since hunting a soul beast required at least a few wizards to go together. Therefore, the costs of the magic tower, the cost of his own, and his disciple’s training always stressed him out.

Without a choice, he had to find another way to make more gold coins. Therefore, he decided to murder some novice wizards with a relatively big fortune and take their money. Just like that, he became a dark wizard.

Black did not have the guts to kill an official wizard since that would be a very hard and risky thing to do. Every official wizard had their own unique defensive moves, but In regards to killing a novice wizard, it would be like a walk in the park for Black.

After he sacrificed a lot to make a barrier circle, Black began his profession as a novice wizard murderer to make money. He had calculated the time exchange for every exchange ground within the nearest 10,000 miles. Then he would use his disciples as bait to lure novice wizards into the barrier circle. Just like that, he would successfully avoid the attentions of the wizards on guard.

Black would rarely make his killing in Caral city. Caral City was the center of the 4 Duchy. Every teleportation circle within a few thousand were controlled by the wizards of the Duchy. If he had left a tiny bit of bread crumb behind from his killing, many intermediate wizards would be immediately teleported to his place. If he was unlucky, that number would be even higher. Therefore, he could not make a mistake no matter what, as his chance of escaping will be extremely low.

Throughout the morning, he did not have a single success this time. He arrived at Caral City. Just then, his disciple reported that there was a novice Wizard with 300,000 gold coins worth of fortune. Although it was not a lot of gold coins, it was still extremely rare for a novice wizard to carry that much around. Seeing the novice Wizard who had been lured into the barrier circle was only a 13 years old rank 2 novice wizard, Black let out a breath of relief. An official wizard would not make a mistake when identifying someone who was younger and lower rank than themselves.

After he had confirmed that this young rank 2 novice wizard was not acting bait or an impersonator, Black began to walk out from where he had hidden, standing in front of Abel.

“Hello, young novice Wizard. I am a rank 7 dark wizard. Please transfer all the gold coins in your magic gold card to my magic gold card.” He thought he was completely out of the league of this rank 2 novice wizard. There was no way this kid knew any spells; how could he hurt him.

“D..D…Don’t even think about it,” said Abel. Although he was nervous, he already had a lot of combat experience at his age. He knew that in a situation like this. He had to numb his enemy. No matter what, he couldn’t let this rank 7 beginner wizard have a chance to attack.

Abel stared into the face of the dark wizard, and the dark wizard doesn’t seem to be concerned about him at all. Abel couldn’t blame him. Who would have guessed a 13-year-old rank 2 novice would simultaneously be an intermediate knight with a power that exceeded an elite knight.

“I don’t want to say it twice!” Said Black, waves of impose pressure emerged from his voice.

“I.. I know spells,” Abel tried to act scared, as he drew the pattern for “fireball” in mid-air. However, he might be too nervous. He made a mistake immediately. He then tried to draw it again but still failed.

Black stared at this young novice wizard in front of him in amusement and said: “how did your teacher teach. You can’t even draw a basic ‘fireball’ spell.”

“My teacher is very powerful. He is an intermediate wizard.” Abel flipped the identity card on his waist to the front, exposing an engraving of a big tree.

The eyes of Black grew tense. He recognized this was the identity card of Wizard Morton. Although he doesn’t have the ability to fight Wizard Morton, this kid in front of him was only a novice wizard. He would just be careful, and no one would know.”

“Little kid, don’t try to scare me with your teacher. Quickly give me your magic gold card, or I will make you suffer so bad, you rather die.” In a flash, the heaviness within Black’s voice had disappeared. Wizard Morton’s name still gave him a lot of pressure.
