Abe the Wizard

Chapter 939: Invitation

Joshua of the Flaming Valley and Chestnut of the Land of Freezing Frost took out their gifts as well.
These weren’t the payment, though.
Rather, they were present to show their respect to Master Bennett.

Abel smiled as he took them, “Please, hand the ingredients and recipes to Poly.
If there are no problems whatsoever, I’ll make sure to craft these as quickly as I can.”

Seeing that their objectives had already been achieved, the three law-defying wizards began to leave.
They knew that Wizard Hal wanted to have a private conversation with Master Bennett, so they thought it was best that they didn’t spend too much time on the other stuff.

Abel smiled as he realized that it was just Wizard Hal now, “What business might you have coming here, Wizard Hal?”

Wizard Hal could sense the goodwill in Abel’s words, “Respectable Master Bennett, you see, the flash spirit fruit of the Land of Lightning Fall is about to blossom.
The reason I’m here is to invite you over to watch on behalf of the lightning clan.”

“The flash spirit fruit? That’s quick!”

Abel didn’t know what to think.
The flash spirit flower was a species famous for being able to relax anyone smelling it.
It was also known to have the ability to increase the lifespan of the person smelling it by one year.
It was a treasured creation that belonged to the Land of Lightning Fall.
Since its blossoming stage was very short, the people invited to see it were a few selected candidates.

The reason that Wizard Hal came here was clear.
Well, perhaps not so clear, from the looks of things.
He probably wasn’t just trying to get Abel to enjoy a flower show.

Abel thought to himself meanwhile, “Perhaps this is the chance for me to control the lightning rule.”

Wizard Hal was worried that Abel was about to decline to offer, “Rest assured if you’re worried about security, Master Bennett.
There will be a lightning wizard beside you at all times.
There won’t be any danger.”

Abel nodded his head and asked, “So when does that flower bloom, Wizard Hal?”

“In just three days!” a smile appeared on Wizard Hal’s face, “Oh, I thought you weren’t going! Just three days, Master Bennett.
If you’re ready, we go head right over there and wait.”

Abel spoke as sincerely as he could, “Wizard Hal, I really wish that I can become good friends with the lightning clan.
If there’s anything you need help with, I’ll make sure I’ll do it to the best of my ability.”

Wizard Hal said in the same sincere manner, “Yes, Master Bennett.
You have my words.
The lightning clan will always be right next to you.”

Abel was free whether he was at the Potionmaster Guild or Law Bay CIty, so he thought that he might as well head over to the Land of Lightning Fall right away.
Before that, he quickly went to Master Muir and said goodbye before departing.

Wizard Hal came with Abel.
He wasn’t with him the whole way, but he did his best to try to make sure he was polite in his demeanor.
As for Abel, he wasn’t planning on going alone, anyways.
It was a must that the two followers were with him, so he brought them along to make sure that they showed enough respect.

Once they were outside the teleportation circle, Abel saw an underground space that he was familiar with.
He was on the first floor now.

Wizard Hal opened the door for Abel, “I’ve arranged your residence on the third floor, Master Bennett.
Please, come along with me.”

They were heading towards the third floor underground, which provided some of the best residence places in all of the underground.

Wizard Hal handed an identity card over to Abel, “This is your temporary sign card, Master Bennett.
You will be able to use this to open the door and every close-range teleportation circle within the Land of Lightning Fall.”

Abel smiled and bowed, “You’ve been so considerate, Wizard Hal.”

Normally speaking, the invited ones would never have a place to live at the Land of Lightning Fall.
This was where the lightning clan was grounded.
Usually, they would always arrive before the flash spirit flower blossomed and wait until they got to see it.
This time was a special case.
Wizard Hal wanted to ask Abel a favor, so he did everything he could to make sure that Abel was treated in the best way possible.

Abel opened the gate with his sign card and made an inviting gesture to Hal.

Wizard Hal was ready to leave early, though, “You might want to take a rest first, Master Bennett.
I’ve arranged for Wizard Field to be your local guide.
If you need anything, just ask him.”

Abel turned and spoke to his two followers, “Poly, Gunter, find your own room to rest.
Don’t worry about me.”

The place he was about to go to was the surface of the Land of Lightning Fall.
His two followers had no way of accompanying him.
They did not possess the element of lightning, nor were they with the protection of the lightning clan advanced wizards.
If they stepped in just like this, they would be instantly hit by endless strikes of lightning until every bit of them disintegrated.

“Yes, Master Bennett!”

While unwilling to remain where they were, the two followers knew what this place was.
They knew that they couldn’t be of much help to Abel here.
They stayed.
Abel pushed the door to the residence and went to the first floor of the underground.
He decided to head over to the big office area first.
As soon as he went in, he could see that white light appeared right in front of him.

Wizard Field bowed, “Respectable Master Bennett.
My name is Field, and I’m your guide at the Land of Lightning Fall.”

Abel thought he could be alone but decided to comply, “I’ll be in your care then, Wizard Field.
Take me to the surface.”

Wizard FIeld was a rank twenty wizard.
Still, Abel’s never seen him before.
That was kind of strange.
Still, he seemed like the sort of man that was keen to follow orders.
He didn’t make much of a reaction to his request.
He was told to fulfill as many requests as Master Bennett wanted, which he did.

The two passed over to the teleportation circle and appeared at the surface.
Apart from the dark buildings that were around them, the other places were laid with dark rocks.
Wizard Field approached Abel as carefully as he could and had him under the protection of his essence.
He didn’t know why a potion master would like to come here.
The Land of Lightning Fall was not a good place to be.
There were countless accounts of intruders being burnt into ashes the moment they went here, and it certainly didn’t seem like the sort of place that a potion master would want to come to collect anything.

Abel walked to the front of the dark giant rock.
He observed as carefully as he could with his power of the Will, and he realized that the darkness on the surface was a track left by lightning.
There was a lightning force filled inside.
As long as the rock was out of here, there would be nothing to supply lightning energy into it.
That was probably going to take a few days, though, from the looks of it.
He could sense it with his wizard crystal body.
By connecting to it with his soul, he could recognize the lightning rule rune on it.

Abel turned to ask WIzard Field, “Is it alright if I take a few rocks with me, Wizard Field? From what I know, everything here is the private property of the lightning clan.”

Wizard Field said with a smile, “You’re fine to take all the rocks you want, Master Bennett.
These rocks aren’t worth anything.”

So he said.
There was only lightning energy attached on the stone if that was what he meant.
Abel didn’t think the same.
He could understand what’s so special about the dark stones here.
Of course, the stone would just lose its specialness if it was out of the Land of Lightning Fall.
It was the whole reason that the Land of Lightning Fall became the sacred ground of lightning element wizards.

With that being said, Abel picked ten small dark stones and had them inside his portal bag.
After that, he took the time to look around the Land of Lightning Fall.

Abel smiled and spoke, “Take me back, Wizard Field.”

Wizard Field placed his hands on Abel’s shoulders as he activated the “teleportation.”After teleporting a few times, they went back to where the teleportation circle was supposed to be and went back to the underground’s first floor.

Abel took out two bottles of the “light recovery potion” when they arrived, “Thank you for the tour, Wizard Field.
Here, it’s a small gift from me.”

Wizard Field smiled as he took the potion over, “Make sure to contact me if you need anything, Master Bennett.”

That worked out just like the way Wizard Hal wanted it.
He got Wizard Field to be Abel’s guide because he had the most potential out of the whole lightning clan.
He was the one with the most potential to become a law-defying wizard.
Wizard Field knew that as well, of course.
He wasn’t going to waste his training time for anything else, but this trip turned out to be much more rewarding than he originally expected.
Before, one bottle of the “light recovery potion” could be traded with one intermediate “light stone,” but that’s only when they were still available for sale on the market.
However, after the Wizard Union came out and stopped all the supplies, hyperinflation took place and made it something that could only be used in the most emergent times.
It was now a healing-type potion used only on the frontlines.
Other advanced wizards had no chance of seeing this potion.
As a matter of fact, the potion would go mostly to law-defying wizards.

If one or two bottles could only ease the law-defying wizards’ injuries, much more would be needed to make a full recovery.
This way, the demand would always be quite enormous.
Once a law-defying wizard was hurt, it would be hard for regular healing potions to have any sort of substantial effects.
That was until the “light healing potion” was found to have the ability to restore one’s fighting capability within a short period of time.
They were now bought at whatever cost on the market, and no one would have them stored in the stock.

Once Abel headed back to his room, the first thing he did was to have ten dark rocks stored inside his personal storage box.
He wanted to use the time-stopping effect to record down the lightning rule.
He didn’t think that this would be so easy, actually.
He thought that the stones would be heavily guarded, but Field just told him that they were useless since they would be out of the Land of Lightning Fall.

There were still three days before the flash spirit flower blossomed.
He was not going to waste any time now.
He had the dark stones with him, and he had everything he needed to start researching the rule of lightning.
Before he commenced, he sent a message to Poly that he would be going on shutdown for three days and three nights.
From there, he opened the defensive circle and the seclusion circle, making his way to be able to enter the dark world.

Inside the dark world, he took out a dark rock and placed it on the ground.

He opened his world stone fragment, “The rule of lightning will open to me, I say.”

From then on, he started memorizing everything about the rule of lightning.
Just like the rule of freezing, there were a total of 999 different rule runes, which together created one big structure.
They were all complex in their own way, much more complex than the rune of a rank twenty wizard.
His memory was quite good, though.
He managed to get the runes one after another by scanning them into his own soul.
