Abe the Wizard - Chapter 841
Chapter 841: Fulfilled (Three in one)
Abel already made a satisfying magic staff for Wizard Allenby before he left Denan City. He also brought along large inventories of shattered gems with him, which he sent from countless large magic mines within the Kingdom of St Ellis.
Those gems were the scraps of the mines. They were even lower quality than low-rank mana gems.
They were not powerful enough to support any magic circle, so they could only be processed and turned into jewelry.
Each mine had a limited amount of mana gems, but there were almost countless scattered pieces. This was why Abel could get so many in such a short amount of time.
Varaya’s ring would only take up a corner even after storing inventories of scattered gems within it.
Abel returned to his magic tower and immediately entered the dark world. Not to battle, but to combine those scattered gems into perfect gems.
Doing repetitive work drove him crazy. Luckily he could use his power of the will to put things in and take things out of the Horadric Cube, so all he had to do was to connect it to the Varaya’s ring.
Other than practicing the ice crystal breathing technique, Abel would spend all his time combining. After 10 days, he was finally done.
By the time he returned to his magic tower, it was already the next morning. After showering, he arrived at a storage room of the tower. There were 10 portal boxes, and he dumped all the perfect gems within them.
He had too many. He still had a large portion of perfect gems after those 10 boxes were filled. However, those perfect gems were enough to make the entire kingdom flourish. No matter how lavish he got, they were enough to last for hundreds of years.
Abel told Tower Spirit Flora about this and permitted it to use these gems. Finally, Abel could relax.
The kingdom of st Ellis was flourishing under the sovereignty of the state. Chair Bennett had the confidence needed to rule after Abel had given him large amounts of political power.
Since Abel had resolved the wizard resource of the kingdom for the next hundreds of years, he could finally detach himself from the common world.
…
Abel reopened his eyes after a long meditation session in the Kurast Dock. The 2 golden crystal cores in his hand had been drained. He looked towards the sky, seeing FLying Flame dancing around.
He felt good after days of crazy training in retreat, and he had fulfilled his rank 15 requirements.
He stayed in the Dark World all this time, and it had been months since he had been to the Holy Continent.
Abel focused all his attention on training, so he had made a nest for Flying Flame and White Snow in Kurast Dock. He dumped thousands of perfect gems into each of them, which gave them the best training environment.
Flying Flame was like a kid. Although dragons trained by entering a sleeping state from breathing techniques, Flying Flame would fly around in the sky and search for any hidden hell creatures as soon as he woke up.
Meanwhile, White Snow still did its training in the piles of perfect blue gems. It had roamed along for a long time, and it knew how precious this training environment was. It didn’t want to waste any time.
It was not Flying Flame. It was not born with the arrogant blood of a dragon, especially a young dragon.
White Snow was a high-level spiritual beast, and it had stepped half a foot into the world of top-level spiritual beasts after Abel had given it large amounts of spiritual beasts crystal cores from the ocean. Still, it was not truly a top-level spiritual beast. That would take a long time.
Its status was awkward among Abel’s beasts. It was quite strong, but its speed was nothing compared to Flying Flame, so it had to work hard.
It didn’t want to be a backup for ice attacks. Abel was growing quickly.
“White Snow, come here!” Abel suddenly realized he had not brought White Snow to battle with him for a while. The last time was the fight with the councils. What it did was very brave, so it deserved a treat.
White Snow flew from its nest and arrived in front of Abel. Abel then took out a potion from his Varaya’s ring and handed it over.
It had been following Abel for a few years, so of course, it knew what that potion was. It was a true power increasing ‘Ability potion.’ Abel couldn’t give those other ability potions to his beasts.
Those things had an aura enchantment ability, and Abel realized an aura was forbidden in this world.
Luckily the 3 councils he had killed in Zakarum’s cathedral had brought him 3 ability potions, so Abel decided to give one of them to White Snow. The one Abel took out belonged to Ismail Vilehand. Abel guessed it had the ability of ‘Extra Fast,’ ‘special damage increase curse,’ ‘lightning enchantment,’ and ‘thicken skin.’
Toorc Icefist might be more suitable for White Snow, but it did not have an extra fast. It was the thing that White Snow lacked the most.
White Snow excitedly popped open the lid with its beak and poured the purple liquid down its throat.
A purple glow wrapped around its body. It was the time to be chosen by an ability. Although it was a gamble and Abel didn’t know which ability it would be, he hoped it would be extra fast in his heart.
The purple glow of White Snow had attracted Flying Flame in the sky. Johnson was training with its rocks, and it too began to move towards White Snow.
Soon, the glow was absorbed into White Snow’s body.
“White Snow, what ability did you get?” Abel asked desperately.
It looked at Johnson and gently pecked on its body with its beak. It was quickly knocked back but the rebound force of Johnson, but that little peck was not useless, a cursed glow quickly emerged on Johnson, and cursed raindrops poured down.
“Not bad, damage increase!” Although it was not the extra fast Abel was hoping for, damage increase was still very useful.
Abel couldn’t use his spirit guardian knights too much in the Holy Continent. Although they were only something to do with spirit wolves to wizards, the red fiery glow in their eyes burned extra bright within the gaze of orc priests.
Also, their skills were falling behind. Even the most powerful spirit guardian knight captain could not fight against an elite wizard. Therefore the damage increase ability it had was very hard to execute during an elite level battle.
White Snow, on the other hand, was a Flying mount. Its ability was neck to neck with an elite wizard so that the damage increase would have much more potential on it.
White Snow didn’t know what Abel was thinking, but it too was satisfied with this strange new ability. It had fought against orc priests many times, and it knew how scary this curse was. It could dramatically decrease your enemies’ defense, which was like increasing the attack of your teammates.
At least now ice attacks were not its only attacks.
“Ok, let’s go and fight!” Abel gave his body a good stretch. The ice crystal breathing technique had brought him back his energy even without much sleep.
He would not be as tired if he just took a longer break. He always said work-life balance, but all he wanted at that moment was to become an elite wizard. He couldn’t stop himself from going crazy on his training.
Fighting against hell creatures was very beneficial for his meditation and leveling up, and there were countless battles to be had in the Dark World.
He added a broken ice armor on his body as well as combat qi armor. He jumped on Black Wind and arrived at Kurast Blizzard through a little teleportation circle.
He entered the first floor of his most hated prison in Zakarum’s cathedral. He summoned his 9 spirit guardian knights and the mud monster. He then ignited the move in a flash, and they all moved forward following a familiar path.
He didn’t want to get too comfortable. The reason he hated the prison was that the walls and the ground were too tight. He made another move in a flash and realized he had arrived at an unfamiliar place.
A giant black colored monster holding a giant hammer was right in front of him. Before he could flash, the hammer had already landed on his ice amour.
A patch of level 22 ice crystal blasted out of the ice armor and counteracted the attack. Frost soon followed the monster’s body, but Abel did not have a good time either.
It seemed like the giant hammer monster’s attack had caused vertigo, and the flashing spell pattern on his hand disappeared.
It was not weak vertigo, and even Black Wind was affected.
Giant hammer monsters were also attacking the other spirit guardian knights. Abel was unlucky. He had flashed into a room full of giant hammer monsters.
The second round of attack was incoming, and Abel could not put up his defense. He was struck again, and Black Wind was knocked back for 10 steps.
His druid soul quickly took control of his body. Afterward, the vertigo had disappeared.
He violently struck the ancient pledge shield on to the monster’s body and sent it into a 2-second dizzy spree as well.
Abel’s main soul had regained its consciousness, and it took back control of his body. Suddenly he heard a rumbling sound. Little white hell creatures surrounded a green spirit guardian knight. The spirit guardian knight wanted to flash away, but its spell kept getting broken as the little white hell creatures ruthlessly struck their blades on its knee. Soon, Abel felt his soul-shaking, and the connection with that spirit guardian knight was broken.
It had only been a second since Abel had spotted those little white hell creatures. He didn’t have time to react. Even his druid soul could not give that spirit guardian knight a full recovery potion before it was killed.
“Undead Stygian Doll!” Those things we’re definitely one of the top 3 scariest hell creatures.
It was not that Abel had never fought against those dolls before, but he was always prepared. This time he was attacked by surprise, and it was a disaster.
After killing one spirit guardian knight, the Undead Stygian Dolls turned their target towards another spirit guardian knight. However, Abel would not let them succeed.
He ignited a flash and brought his summons to the room. However, when the white light emerged, the mud monster was struck by a giant hammer, and it failed to flash out.
Soon, Abel had gotten the news that the mud monster was dead. Although their soul was strong, he still felt a slight pain when one of his summons died.
Abel shook his head and summoned another mud monster. Meanwhile, the hell creatures already sped out of the room towards him.
The Undead Stygian Dolls were so fast. They were almost like a patch of white fog. 10 giant hammer monsters were following behind with their giant steps.
Abel was not afraid. He had distance. With a spirit guardian knight in front of him, he cast a blinding curse.
He had learned this curse from the orc priest spell guide he got from the old man’s bookshelf. Most of the guide’s spells were altered, so Abel had to revive them into their most primitive form.
This had kept Abel busy for the past days, and this curse was his newest progress.
The cursed cloud appeared, and the cursed rain poured down on the Dolls just in time. A red glow appeared on them, and they lost their vision.
They suddenly came to a halt, so Abel quickly threw out some ice poles. He did not use the chain of lightning this time. He had done that before and realized their lightning resistance was very high. It could only affect 9 of them, which was very inefficient with this many of them.
The blinding would lose its effect once the subject was attacked so that the ice pole would be a perfect compliment. As soon as those dolls regained themselves from the curse, they would be affected by the frost.
If he was lucky, they would freeze, but slowing them down could still give Abel enough time to cast another spell.
Without speed, those dolls were being wiped out by Abel. Those giant hammer monsters were not fast in the first place, and they were dead before they could even get close.
Seeing a ground full of corpses, Abel pointed, and one of them and summoned a new skeleton with the skeleton resurrection spell. He then combined it with a spirit wolf and snatched the dead spirit guardian knight’s gears for this new one.
Abel felt lucky that those Undead Stygian Dolls did not attack him first. If his spell was kept getting broken, he might not be able to flash away.
What happened regained him once again that the Dark World was filled with danger. If he was not careful, he might end up staying forever.
He needed to be extra careful next time. Safety was his priority.
Abel did not join the first new year celebration of the palace since he claimed the throne in the Kingdom of St Ellis. He let chair Bennett represent him. As his power stabilized, the Bennett family had truly become a big noble family in the human world.
It was the coldest winter for many in the Holy Continent. Not just the weather but the looming uncertainty of the future.
However, not the kingdom of St Ellis. With an endless supply of fish, their peace and prosperity stuck out like a sore thumb amongst the chaos of the human world.
This was only possible with countless knights guarding the kingdom night and day. The 30,000 knights of the kingdom were decided into 3 groups, each guarding a border.
Only the kingdom of St Ellis could do this during the food shortage, and this crisis had allowed them to gain their deserved battle experience.
March arrived, and Abel had to leave the Dark World. He had fulfilled his level 15 wizard pattern. Battling and meditation could no longer advance him.
He returned to his magic tower, and the first thing he heard was the voice of tower spirit Flora.
“Master, Blue Dragon Emmanuel has been waiting for you in Harry Castle for a month, please contact him when you are finished with your retreat!”
“Blue Dragon Emmanuel?” Abel mumbled.
His relationship with the blue dragon was good. Abel had personally asked his chefs to send him a portion of food along with the ones for Grand Duke Edwina.
This could help the elves strengthen their relationship with the dragons, but it was also because Blue Dragon Emmanuel’s teleportation circle was using was from ancient times. It was not easy to connect with the human ones, so it was easier to go through the elves.
So why was he looking for Abel?
Abel quickly took out the dragon scale blue dragon Emmanuel had given him and connected with it through his power of the will.
“Blue Dragon Abel, you’ve finally come out of your retreat. I’m Starving to death!” Blue Dragon Emmanuel’s voice was filled with excitement.
“Blue Dragon Emmanuel, didn’t you get the food I sent you?” Abel paused for a moment.
He wouldn’t believe his chefs would forget his command. Even if they forgot, tower spirit Flora would remind them because they had to teleport through the castle’s teleportation circle.
Tower spirit Flora was intelligent. It wouldn’t forget Abel’s orders.
“The food arrived, but it was stolen!” Blue Dragon said in slight embarrassment.
It was hard to believe. Blue Dragon Emmanuel was the strongest person Abel knew in the Holy Continent, and someone had stolen from him?
Even that rank 18 old man was nothing in front of him. He was the ruler of the ocean, so you could just imagine how powerful he was the ruler of the great ocean, so you could just imagine how powerful he was.
“Blue dragon Emmanuel, if someone has stolen from you, I’m afraid there is nothing I can do about it!” Abel knew what Blue Dragon Emmanuel just wanted more food, but he pretended he didn’t know.
He was trying to get Blue Dragon Emmanuel to beg him so he would owe him a favor. Dragons were not like humans. Once they needed to return a favor, they would try their best to help you no matter what.
“Blue dragon Abel, can you send more…..” Blue dragon Emmanuel hesitated a little and added, “can you send 6 more portions every day?”
“Great, I like to see how he will return this favor!” A dark excitement emerged in Abel’s heart.
“if this is what you want, I will tell my chefs!” Abel quickly replied.
“Blue Dragon Abel, you really are a true brother,” Blue Dragon Emmanuel said in excitement.
It was actually quite sad for blue dragon Emmanuel. he was only sent a human portion of food cooked in rabbit essence, but a dragon’s body was much bigger. Especially when you were as powerful as blue dragon Emmanuel, by that point, your body was no longer burning normal energy but attributed energy.
The portion he was sent was only enough for his human to enjoy in his human form. It was not easy for anything to trigger an emotion within him for a dragon this age. That grandmaster’s wine was not bad, but the food was still his favorite.
This used to be a little personal thing to blue dragon Emmanuel, but it was no longer even since golden dragon Cornelius had woken up from his deep sleep.
He was actually a yellow color, but gold sounded more prestigious, so he was called the golden dragon.
Gold dragons were the masters of lightning with scary lightning attacks. They were the front line attackers of the dragons.
Golden dragon Cornelius and Blue Dragon Emmanuel were about the same age. They had been fighting for fun ever since they were young. Due to the lightning advantage Golden Dragon Cornelius had, it was always the dominant one.
This time was no different. Golden Dragon Cornelius decided to visit his good brother as soon as he was woken up. Still, to his surprise, Blue dragon, Emmanuel was in his human form enjoying some delicate food by himself.
He had been sleeping for too long. His stomach was starving, so of course, he could not resist this temptation. He stepped up and snatched the food from blue dragon Emmanuel. Just like that, a good old game between the 2 dragons was started, a brutal fight.
A brutal fight meant that elemental attacks were forbidden. Only strength was allowed. But despite that, their claws would still carry small amounts of elemental energy no matter how hard they suppress it.
Blue dragon Emmanuel had the ice element’s ability to slow his enemy down, while Golden Dragon Cornelius had Lightning’s numbing effect. The result was the same every time.
Blue dragon Emmanuel lost, and his food was stolen.
Golden Dragon Cornelius also felt the same emotion when he tried the food cooked in rabbit essence, so he decided to come and take the food once a day.
The depressing days of Emmanuel had arrived. He couldn’t contact Abel, and his food would be stolen by Golden Dragon Cornelius as soon as it was teleported.
There were not many things in the world that could bring any emotion out of him, and he had lost his only interest. Other food just wouldn’t even come close.
Unlike Blue Dragon Emmanuel, Golden Dragon Cornelius was not a low key dragon. He had shared his experience with the food with his circle.
However, he would not share the food. If you wanted to take his food, you had to win against him in a fight.
Community circles were necessary, even for dragons.
The one blue dragon Emmanuel and Golden Dragon Cornelius were included in a few similar age dragons. Since they grew up together, their circle had only strengthened with time.
The others included Green Dragon Bridges, Red Dragon Nathaniel, Blue Dragon Finn, and Red Dragon Gabriel. They were all hopeless against Golden Dragon Cornelius, so they all turned their target towards Blue Dragon Emmanuel.
Abel’s food was no longer a secret, but they all felt a little helpless when they found out Abel was only a 20-year-old blue dragon.
There were strict regulations in regards to protecting young dragons among the dragons. If they decided to bully a young dragon, they would be punished by the dragons.
This was why Blue Dragon Emmanuel had been ruthlessly trying to contact Abel every day for a month. He had no choice.
Blue Dragon Emmanuel was happy with Abel’s reply, so he invited Abel to his dragon abyss as a guest. This showed that he was truly thinking of Abel as a brother, not a youngster he felt obligated to take care of.
