Abe the Wizard - Chapter 394

Chapter 394: 394

Chapter 394 Blessing From the Great One

“I’ll leave, alright? Okay! I got it! I’ll leave! Aggh!”

The red-cloaked wizard started to behave when he saw the black-cloaked dwarven wizard’s badge . Not just that, though . From what he was being told, he very well might just be the reason that Wizard Cliff would be banned from the city . If that actually was the case, he was pretty much a dead man .

After bowing to the black-cloaked dwarven wizard, the red-cloaked wizard started running towards the Blacksmith Union headquarter . When he did, however, he ran into a wall of qi that blocked him from going forward .

As it turned out, he was already on the so-called “blacklist . ” From this point onward, he was not allowed to use any teleportation circles located inside Cina City . Luckily for him, it only takes about several miles of journey to get to Moga City . He could still go back to the Kingdom of St . Ellis by going there .

As Abel watched the red-cloaked wizard fleeing, the corner of his lips started raising ever so slightly . Since he had the transformation necklace on him, it could hide all the murderous intent he had for that man . The black-cloaked dwarven wizard said as he bowed to Abel, “It’s an honor to see you here, Master Abel! My name is Valen . ”

Abel returned the bow, “Greetings, Wizard Valen . Thank you so much for your help . ”

Abel didn’t expect an advanced wizard to be so polite to him . They were among the best fighters throughout the whole continent, after all .

Valen continued to smile in an overly-kind way, “I’m so sorry what you went through, Master Abel . The city could’ve done so much better than that to protect the safety of travelers like you . ”

“Don’t worry, though . From this point on, I guarantee you, sir, you will not be harassed like this again!”

After Valen said that, he bowed to Abel again and disappeared . A white light just took him away . He was going somewhere that Abel couldn’t see, and he was murmuring something to himself . “Oh sweet! Now that I’ve done something for him, I can ask a favor in return when I need it! You really outdid yourself back there, didn’t you Valen? You could’ve let the other wizards do the job, but you had to be a great little helper to Master Abel, didn’t you?” Obviously, Abel didn’t know about Valen’s schemes . He just thought that the guy was pretty nice to help him out . That being said, he had no idea why Rawl was so surprised to see him here . He had no idea about how strange it was for an advanced wizard to show for a little confrontation between a traveler and a novice wizard . That, and how different Valen was acting in contrast to his reputation as a super-aggressive wizard .

Rawl immediately became aware of something . Whatever reasons Valen had, he was trying to suck up to Abel . He wasn’t going to say that out loud, of course .

As soon as Abel walked into the giant castle, the first thing he noticed was how neat everything was . In contrast to the rough appearance of the area that was outside, the inside was laid with neat, flat black iron tiles . The floor was made completely out of black hematite, and it was all processed into black iron floor tiles .

There was a giant hallway inside . There was a fountain which, under the reflection of the sunlight, revealed a rainbow that poured on two beautiful stone statues . One of them was a depiction of Greygenni, of which Abel recognized . The other one, however, he did not know .

“Master Abel,” Rawl whispered, “That’s Varaya, the goddess of healing and protection . She’s the wife of the great Greygenni!”

When Abel looked towards the other side, he saw a garden with many humans, elves, and dwarves in it . As it turned out to be, race was not a particularly important factor in this place .

Rawl jumped down from his chocobo, “If you’ll allow me to, Master Abel, I’ll now guide your mount to a resting spot . From here onward, we are only allowed to move with our feet . ”

“No, thank you . I’ll do it myself,” Abel replied, then put Black Wind into his portal beast ring . Honestly, he wasn’t sure if Black Wind would like being inside a resting spot . It might get uncomfortable and start howling at the other animals . With that mind, it’s for the best if he was taking care of it himself .

“A portal beast bag!” Rawl covered his mouth in awe . It was the first time he had seen one on a human . Like the portal bracelet (which belonged to dwarves), the elven portal beast bag was not meant to be accessed by any outsiders . They were meant to be wartime supplies, something that was owned entirely by the highest of the highest authorities .

Instead of putting Bartoli’s warhorse inside his portal beast ring, Abel decided to put it inside his portal beast bag . He didn’t want to frighten the horse with all his other summoned creatures, so it was for the best to make separate rooms .

After handing the chocobo to a servant on the side, Rawl brought Abel closer to the fountain . He then pointed towards a dark hole that was carved into the shape of a pouch .

“There, Master Abel . That’s where you’re supposed to make the offerings . ”

While Abel didn’t share any of the same faith that the dwarves had, he had a lot of respect for those who have achieved great things in the past . He was perfectly willing to hand the black hematite piece over .

When he did, a teleportation spell was activated from inside the pouch . Then, suddenly, the giant Greygenni statue on top of the city started blasting out a golden light at him . It all happened so fast . He had no way to react to it . Luckily, it didn’t seem to pose any threat to him . All that it did was to make his body glisten in gold for a bit .

Rawl said ecstatically, “You are truly blessed by the spirits, Master Abel! Countless people have come here to make their offerings, but only a few could receive a direct blessing of the Great One! Actually, you are the only one who did this year!”

“What does this, uh, blessing do?” Abel asked in confusion .

Rawl responded, “Well, according to the legends, you’ll have a much higher success rate in whatever craft that you’ll be making . ”

As good as that sounded, it wasn’t really of much use for Abel . He already had a very high success rate in crafting his weapons . That being said, this blessing didn’t really make much of a difference to him .

Apart from him, though, everyone else seemed to care so much about it . In the hallway alone, about ten dwarves, six humans, and two elves have all received a notification on their mast blacksmith badge . They were all told about how Master Abel had received a direct blessing from the Great Greygenni .

The wizards and knights also learned about it . The knights, especially, seemed to care a lot . If they could make Abel make a weapon for them, the quality of whatever product that he made was guaranteed to be good .

Abel didn’t know, though . Actually, nor did he care that much . He was more focused on the master blacksmith gathering event . “How many master blacksmiths are there right now?”

Rawl replied after counting for a bit, “Well, sir, all the dwarven masters that could come are already here . There are also six human masters and two elven masters . If we are not counting on any more to come, you should be the last one here today . ”

“Oh, no!” Abel’s eyes widened, “Hurry up and take me to the gathering place, then . I can’t have all those masters wait for me!”

As soon as Abel started walking, a grey-cloaked human wizard came up to him and bowed .

“Master Abel,” the grey-cloaked human wizard greeted, “The Wizard Union of the Kingdom of St . Pierrt sends their regards . ”

As confused as Abel was, he decided to return the bow first . He had heard of the Kingdom of St . Pierrt before, but he literally had nothing to do with them . Were they going after him for the warrant as well?

The grey-cloaked wizard continued to speak, “Rest assured, Master Abel . While you are a wanted man by the Kingdom of St . Ellis, that has nothing to do with us . In the same way, they can’t interfere with what we do with you . If you are interested in going back to the human world, you are always welcomed to pay a visit to our nation . ”

“Master Marian has told me about you before . He’s an advanced wizard himself, and he’s always told me that if I ever get to see you, I must invite you over the St . Pierrt Wizard Union . ”
