Abe the Wizard

Chapter 1083: Preparing a Ball

“Yes! This is the effect!”

Once the dark golden healing potion entered Wizard Bart’s body, he felt a hot wave circling his system. All the minor parts of his body recovered quickly. It was as if he was drenched in a pond of life elixir. All his cells were cheering as they were replenished at every part.

He opened his eyes once the effect was gone, “I’ve never seen anything like what you’ve made, Master Bennett!”

Wizard Hutton laughed at the side, “Well, that’s because he’s officially the best potiomaster on the central continent, Grandfather!”

“So that’s why my promotion chance has increased by 10%!” Wizard Bart chuckled, then gave another bow, “I must thank you greatly for this, Master Bennett!”

Abel returned the bow, “As I said, Wizard Bart, you are one of us.”

Abel was already going to help with the promotion as soon as Wizard Bart mentioned it. It was just that he didn’t have a lot of understanding about hitting legendary rank. So far, the most he could do was to minimize the amount of injury on his body. Anything after would be fairly simple, really. In no time at all, he thought there would be another legendary wizard on the central continent, and that was going to be much more important than just having another bunch of law-defying wizards.

Wizard Bart laughed gratefully, “One of us? Oh, you’re putting it too politely!”

Abel shut down the seclusion circle around him. The other 30 law-defying wizards didn’t see it, but they knew what happened. With all that being said, they all came forward and gave Abel a bow. Soon, they all quickly left the golden castle and left Wizard Hutton and Bart where they were.

Wizard Hutton faced Abel and spoke, “So his Majesty told us to bring you something, Master Bennett. As you may know, the dwarves will always be your friends, and we’ll make sure to always behind you.”

This was not a simple promise. That statement proved that the dwarves would side with Abel no matter the situation. Unlike the humans, who were rarely consistent with their words, the dwarves took promises seriously. Their vows were ironclad.

Abel replied formally, “I see the dwarves as friends too, Wizard Hutton.”

Wizard Hutton continued, “Master Bennett, we’ve known that you have lent your sky ships to the Wizard Union. Recently, we have gathered the blacksmiths, circlemasters and the alchemists together to make you one. We’ll provide ten to you within a month and make sure that you remain safe.”

The dwarves knew that they owed Abel too much, so much so that it was hard to pay it all back at once. That was 31 law-defying wizards returning to them, and the price for that was definitely more than a single golden castle.

Before the law-defying wizards came to the golden castle, the dwarven king made sure to send many dwarves to boost the construction work for the skyships. Meanwhile, they were doing everything they could to pay the light stones to Abel. The relationship between both sides had never been this good, as far as anyone was concerned.

Abel laughed and said, “You can say thanks for me to the dwarven king. I am in need for sky ships, as you know.”

Wizard Bart came forward as he saw that the conversation was about to end, “I’ll head to shutdown training once I’m back. Master Bennett, if I happen to fail this one, I must ask that you let little Huttie there return the favour . But, if I do manage to hit legendary rank, I’ll make sure to kill any one of your enemies.”

Abel bowed, “I wish you all the best, Wizard Bart.”

Wizard Bart laughed with confidence, “See you next time! I’ll most likely be working for you next time I see you!”

Wizard Bart walked away with Wizard Hutton after that. There was no guarantee for it, but it really sounded to Abel like he would hit legendary rank. He understood himself very clearly. Before, the failed attempt would lower the overall likelihood for promotion, but now the healing potion would deny any potential drawbacks. In fact, the purifying effect was going to increase the effectiveness of any potion that was drunk. Wizard Bart must’ve noticed that as well to make that statement.

Abel spoke to the research spirit, “Send an invitation to the Goddess Temple. Ask Loraine to come here before noon tomorrow.”

The research spirit replied, “Yes, Master.”

Abel added another command, “I want you to speak to Wizard Hal of the lightning clan, Wizard Hutton of the dwarves, Wizard Bernie, Wizard Hume of the Wizard Union, Big Druid Lendo of the elves, the three potion masters of the Potionmaster’s Guild and Wizard Clemens of the Wizard Union intelligence department. Ask them to join the ball tomorrow.”

The research spirit replied, “Yes, Master. All their contacts are available.”

Abel was going to host an event that’s just for his close friends. Instead of sending a direct invitation himself, he was going to send it with his research spirit.

He spoke to Butler Meyer outside, “Come in for a bit.”

Since the ones invited were no regular people, Butler Meyer had been waiting outside patiently and carefully. If there were a need, he would be ready to help at any point. Still, he didn’t think that the law-defying wizards would return immediately after they were resurrected. They all had businesses or friends to get back to instead of staying here.

Butler Meyer walked in and spoke, “Master!”

Abel smiled and commanded, “I’ll host a small ball tomorrow midday. You have some experience yourself, so just take it as you see fit.”

Butler Meyer felt much better to know there were things he could do, “Yes, Master!”

Abel was, by no means, a regular person now. He was very famous on the central continent, so he had to make sure everyone knew that he was moving out. That was the whole purpose of this ball. The only difference was that he didn’t have to ask favors from anyone. It was the other way around. Everyone else had to try getting close to him, which was why he was only asking people that were close to him.

Once the news was sent, the two people responsible were sure that Master Bennett built a new residence. They knew about it already, actually. They knew it as soon as Abel connected his large-size teleportation circle to the network.

If anyone was surprised, it’d have to be Wizard Clemens of the Wizard Union intelligence department. He was ecstatic to have even been invited. He almost made an enemy out of Abel, but after working many times to fix the relationship, he had been truly accepted as a trustworthy friend to Abel and his circle. As a result, he’s finally had access to asking for potions from a top-level potion master, which was really something he was glad about.

Queen Luisa went to the palace as soon as he received an invitation. While the invitation wasn’t to the Elven Royal Palace, he felt the obligation to heed it. Queen Luisa wanted to go herself, but she wasn’t the one who received the invitation. It seemed like the golden castle was only for a very select few. With that being said, Druid Lendo was sent as a representative after having a present taken to him by the palace safe.

Master Muir and Master Balfour, and Master Nolan changed their schedules immediately on the second day. They were doing everything they could to make it to visit. 1 potion master of the central continent. That was just how much of a priority Abel was to them at this point. It was the same for Wizard Hal, Wizard Hutton, and Wizard Bernie. Everyone who received the news made sure to attend the ball. They even thought about bringing their own friends, but no one really dared to as they understood the private nature of this particular event.

Well, except the Goddess Temple.

Druid Lucia immediately went to Loraine’s room as soon as she heard, “May I come in, Lady Sainte?”

Lorraine spoke, “Druid Lucia? Yes, of course.”

Lorraine was trying to find the costume for tomorrow’s event. She knew that it was the first time she was appearing as Abel’s girlfriend. So she made sure to look exactly the right way for this first-time thing.

“What are you so busy , I wonder,” Druid Lucia giggled as she saw the dresses that were lying around.

Lorraine was a bit helpless, “I’m not satisfied with any of these. None of them seem to fit.”

It wasn’t like the dress was good. There had to be something that was made brand new. Some of them had hundreds and thousands of history behind them. They were legendary costumes in their own rights. Lorraine had these in her option list because she wanted to make the very best impression as the future vice master of the house.

Druid Lucia smiled and picked something simple, “Why don’t we pick something that’s suited to your age?”

Loraine was skeptical but quickly nodded, “Actually, that may just do! What am I thinking with all these over-the-top costumes. Thanks!”

Druid Lucia proceeded to say, “I’ll need to register for two bodyguards, Lady Sainte. It’s for your protection tomorrow.”

Loraine didn’t refuse, “Of course! How about you just come with me tomorrow?’

Something felt off afterward. Once Druid Lucia was gone, another druid appeared in her room to ask for attendance. The temple elder just appointed Druid Beula as the other bodyguard. It was for the other big druids to stop arguing about who gets to go. They were doing everything they could to get closer to Master Bennett.

In the same way, More people from everywhere had been using all kinds of channels to learn about this. The vast majority of them hadn’t known anyway to get to Master Bennett, though. They didn’t know him well, and Master Bennett had changed to a new location once he moved to the new place.

Worst of all, the Nation of God always knew about the ball. It was not like they could learn anything concrete, however. Their members had no ways to infiltrate. Most of their prestigious members couldn’t have the opportunity to blend in.
