The Wizard World - Chapter 291

Chapter 291
Henn finally woke up when the sun started rising .
‘High-Temperature Forcefield, huh? Good choice . ’ She did not sound surprised . ‘This is the details about the spell model . Since you already know the entirety of the fundamentals, you should be able to master it quickly . ’
‘I want to craft an enchanted weapon . Do you have advice for me?’ Angele asked and secretly ordered the chip to record the conversation .
‘Majority of enchanted weapons are weak . If you want better enchantment results, you must look for high-quality materials . No one relies on the enchantment itself since it takes too much time just to replenish the energy required for usage . If you can find a magic circle that can help you replenish the energy, that would be a good choice . That’s why the enchanted items can be used more than once although they have an internal cooldown time,’ Henn explained . ‘Your enchantment skill is way too weak . Without sufficient knowledge of magic circles, you’ll just be wasting materials . ’
‘Alright . I’ll think about it . No one can become an enchantment master in a single day after all . The High-Temperature Forcefield’s rune engraving is my priority,’ Angele responded in a calm tone . There was a blank expression on his face .
‘Sure . I have a nice level 2 spell for you once you finish the procedure . ’ Henn continued, ‘After transmitting the details of the level 2 spell to you, I will have a good rest again . That means you’ll be on your own for a while . The transmitting process will cost me a lot of energy . Take some time and master it after you arrive at the Elemental Hand’s territory . ’
Henn transmitted the complete information of the spell model to Angele after she finished speaking .
‘Is there anything else that I need to be careful with?’ Angele wondered .
‘It’s still early . I’ll talk to you after I wake up . ’ Henn stopped responding after this . It seemed the process had cost her a significant portion of her energy .
‘Henn?’ Angele tried to talk to her again, but she did not answer .
He narrowed his eyes . Getting off his bed, he headed to the potions room .
There was a black travel case behind the door . He opened the case carefully and covered the whole room with his forcefield, preventing the invasive mentality waves from detecting his special items .
The items in the case were covered by a black blanket .
Angele pulled the black blanket away and colorful glows illuminated on his face .
Under the blanket, there were countless potion bottles and tubes . The blue, red, yellow, and golden glows were from the liquid and dust inside the containers .
Angele spent some time testing in order to check if Henn knew what he was doing while she was resting . By then, he had now figured out how Henn’s invasive mentality waves functioned .
He wanted to hide his special potions from Henn as one of them contained the extracted blood of the creature from the Nightmare Realm . He was not sure if Henn could recognize it but for the sake of any unexpected happenings, he did so .
Angele checked the condition of the potions in the case and grabbed a glass tube with green sticky liquid from the top right corner .
‘I need to finish the engravings and stabilize my mentality as soon as possible . The date Mincola told me is now getting closer and closer . My time is limited yet I still need to analyze the bloodline sample…’ Angele closed the case as he thought of this . He hid the case behind the door and covered it with energy particles to set up a simple alerting function .
Angele straightened his back and headed to the laboratory .
*************************
Ten days later .
The sky was blocked by thick clouds .
The raindrops were hitting the land constantly and the visibility outside was bad .
Beside a main road outside the city, there was a 2-meter-wide river running down the grass-covered land .
The bean-sized raindrops rippled on the surface of the water and the tall grass was dancing amidst the strong wind .
The flow of the river was slow but steady . There were several pedestrians wearing raincoats and carriages advancing along the main road .
There was a tall man wearing a gray raincoat standing by the running river . The gray hood covered his face, but it seemed that he was staring at the water quietly .
Suddenly, a tinge of white light flashed on the back of his right hand .
A deep voice echoed in his ears .
‘3 o’clock . Green, hide your mentality waves . ’
‘For sure,’ Angele responded in a low voice .
‘There are two more groups of wizards doing the same mission as us . You need to hurry . ’ The voice continued .
‘Alright . ’ Angele cut off the communication .
After ten days and thirty tries, he finally engraved the first rune on the mentality crystal with complete success .


He then decided to test the new effect of the metal forcefield right away .
Angele accepted an assassination mission from the inn . The target was a wizard from a random family .
It was a weak wizard who decided to inherit his family business after failing to advance to the next stage . He apparently hired several strong mercenaries as guards on the way to the city .
The downpour of the rain was becoming heavier and heavier . Angele could barely see the objects that were ten meters away from him and the only thing in his vision was the downpour .
He raised his head and the chilling raindrops splashed on his face . Angele took a deep breath . The air was wet but refreshing .
Suddenly, he heard the intense noise made by horse hooves from the main road .
*tabdak tabdak*
In the curtain of rain, a white carriage with two running black horses was moving forward at full speed . There was no coachman at its front and its wheels were surrounded by green energy particles .

Angele turned his head around and the carriage looked like a moving gray shadow .
He narrowed his eyes and started walking to the carriage .
Several seconds later, Angele stood on the roadside staring at the approaching carriage .
The noise made by the stomping horses was mixed in the rain, getting louder and louder .
The road was not for a smooth ride, so the carriage was shaking .
Angele slowly untied the silver scimitar from the belt and held it tight with his right hand . There was a blank expression on his face .
*BOOM*
Rays of silver light were released from Angele’s hand . The carriage was blown away by the impact and it rolled back several times on the grass like a ball . The carriage stopped moving after hitting a large puddle .
Angele detected no movement whatsoever from the overturned carriage .


The two black horses were neighing in pain on the grass . Fresh red blood was dripping down their body, diluted by the rain quickly .
Angele walked to the carriage quickly and tied the cursed scimitar to his belt using the metal string . He then raised his right hand and conjured a silver sword .
The point of the sword turned red, now steaming hot .
The raindrops evaporated once they fell onto the point of the sword, producing sizzling noises .
The sword was about two meters long and its tip was wider than the blade itself . The glowing crimson sword’s point was hard to ignore in the rain .
Blue light dots flashed in front of Angele’s eyes as he walked to the carriage .
A bald man wearing a green leather suit was trapped inside the carriage and blood was dripping down his chin .
The man’s face had long become pale since his chest was broken .
Angele raised his sword up high and swung it downwards .
A black shadow jumped out of the carriage and blocked the blade .
Angele leaned back due to the impact and took a step backward .
The blue light around his eyes faded .
’75 degrees?’ He did a simple analysis . The enhanced metal forcefield and his high strength level had increased the damage dealt by his weapon slightly .
The black shadow was blown away by the impact . It was actually an old man wearing a black outfit . Blood was leaking out of his eyes and nose . Such a scene was horrifying .
"God damn it . I tried," the old man cursed as he coughed .
"Where are your guards? How did you get hurt?" Angele noticed that the situation was a bit complicated . He aimed at the horses and the carriage when he initiated the attack . His purpose was to let the forcefield to do its work and break through the old wizard’s energy shield .
"You guys killed them all," the old man responded in a grave tone . "Young man, how much did they pay you to kill me? I’ll double that price if you let me go . What do you say?"


The old man looked at his right arm and it was burnt black . The enchanted armband that was gifted to him by an elder in his family had broken into pieces after blocking the attack .
His energy shield that was created by the forcefield was pierced through easily . It would take him at least four years to recover from the injury .
‘But…’
The old man rubbed his right arm .
It would not be a big problem if he could stay alive . He needed to find a way to convince the young wizard in front of him .
The old man raised his head and stared at Angele .
"What do you think about my offer?"
Angele brandished the sword in his hand several times, its blade far longer than his height .
"Whatever, it seems I’m the lucky one today . I need to finish you off before the others come . " Angele did not care about the old man’s offer at all .
"You…Wait, I’ll triple the reward! Triple!" the old man who was trembling in fear shouted in desperation .
*CHI*
The longsword chopped through the old man’s head easily .
The heated blade burned his flesh as it sliced through his head .
Angele was satisfied with the result, he crouched and took down a black leather pouch from the old man’s belt to prove that he completed the mission .
Angele heard the noise produced by stomping horses coming from the main road . Two men in black cloaks riding on top of brown horses were moving toward him at full speed .
The man in the front was surrounded by a distorted forcefield and the raindrops were being blocked by it . The mentality wave released by him was strong and mysterious .
The two horses’ red eyes were glowing, their muscular bodies looked a bit strange .
Angele observed the two approaching wizards for several seconds, now rather confused . He shook his head, then he turned around and disappeared into the curtain of the rain .
