Abe the Wizard

Chapter 1207 - Control

Abel was still in a state of excitement, but he was starting to feel that Milton’s divine body was dispersing. Milton lost control after losing his spirit. Still, this didn’t mean that Abel gave up on retrieving the golden spirit. As far as he was concerned, he wasn’t sure if the crystal angelic statue could withstand the impact of the soul living.

Abel slapped his own head, "The problem is... right, it’s just missing a soul."

Abel took ten bottles of the soul potion out of his divine portal bag. He used his "telekinesis" spell to move the potions towards the side of the starlight defensive circle. The whole reason that the divine body was flowing was that there was a lack of soul, so he might as well craft one right here.

One after the other, the potions were poured into Thief God Milton’s mouth. A soul was just being formed. It was weak, and as soon as it took form, Abel forced it to sign a spiritual pact with it. Once a soul chain was established, he connected his power of the Will to it. To his surprise, the divine body was still trying to push the spirit out. Perhaps it had to do with how weak the spirit was.

Abel’s body flashed and appeared amidst the starlight defensive circle. Due to what he just did, he was now certain that Thief God Milton’s body was not a threat to him. Of course, during the moment he went in, he still had his guard on so that he would leave as soon as his instincts told him to do so.

Going in was actually a lot safer than he had thought. Actually, the divine body gave him a sense of comfort that came out of the weak soul. It was fine if it was weak because he could feed it another one of his soul potions. Now, there were 1000 bottles that he held. He could make the divine body as strong as possible, but he couldn’t really reverse the process of the soul dispersing. He could make it slower, though.

Abel tried to think for a bit. Maybe this was happening because the soul he inserted was not of golden quality. He took out a holy crystal to confirm that. He wanted to see if he could increase the strength of the soul he just inserted. Quickly, the holy crystal in his hand was turned into a golden light that rushed into the divine body. Soon, the body was flashing in golden light. He knew that it worked. It was just like the divine spirit heritage Thief God Milton described to him. The process was also very easy. As long as he was thinking about what he wanted to do with the holy crystal, the holy crystal would just let itself do that. That’s if it was within the range of the crystal’s capability, of course. The harder the command was, the more crystals would naturally be required.

Abel just used a total of five holy crystals to turn the soul into what was like Thief God Milton’s original one. The spirit was born inside the divine spirit, and after it stabilized, it quickly merged 100% with the divine body. At the same time, he just received a response from the divine body, which was immediately memorized by the new spirit. Those contained skills that Thief God Milton originally possessed. There was the "invisibility technique’’, the "concealment," "domain breaking," and "extreme speed."

Abel wasn’t sure if he should be glad or disappointed. He didn’t think that a divine spirit would only have four abilities. No wonder it was such an easy job to trap Thief God Milton. For analysis, the "invisibility technique" was nothing more than turning one’s body into nothingness. It was much more convenient than just having an invisibility cloak on, as one could walk around while in invisibility mode. (but Abel could teleport in his invisibility cloak to remain unseen) He could also fight and remain unseen with this, so thinking back to when Thief God Milton was still alive, if he was using this technique, Abel might be unable to capture him even with his angelic body.

There was also "concealment." This was a very, very effective stealth technique, given how Thief God Milton was undetected all the way until he voluntarily extended his power of the Will. He managed to do this even with the research spirit and the circle spirit intact. On top of that, the "domain breaking" must allow Milton to go in and out of circles freely, while the "extreme speed" should be what allowed Milton to have twice the speed of everyone else.

Now, as powerful as all of these skills were, none of them could be used to assist in combat.

Abel shook his head and spoke to himself, "Well, that’s still another divine spirit on my side."

Of course, Abel wasn’t just going to let Milton’s divine body stay naked like this. He didn’t think it was that difficult of a job to forge an armor set for a 3-meter-tall divine spirit. That’d have to wait sometime later, though. For now, the first thing he should do is to grant a new name for his new contract creature.

Abel didn’t think too much, "Thief God Milton. Let’s not change anything."

After granting the name, Abel connected tens of thousands of worship pathways onto the divine body. Actually, he just realized that he was doing something wrong as soon as he went ahead. He used Thief God Milton’s name and Thief God Milton’s body as the base, but the soul was entirely new. All the previous followers were now to follow an entity that was entirely foreign to them. This wasn’t good at all. Thief God Milton came to him because the Nation of God was tracking him, so now that Abel was not replacing anything with this divine spirit he just retrieved, he was the wanted man that the Nation of God was after.

Naturally speaking, Abel wouldn’t want to take the risk. He immediately had Thief God Milton inside his portal beast bag, so maybe he could take it out once he was inside the dark world.

For power analysis, Abel could see that Thief God Milton was a little more than a mad knight. Actually, Milton wasn’t even as strong as Wale, the legendary sacred knight. That was if Milton wasn’t using his divine power, and honestly, fueling it with any divine power would be too costly a method to fight. Abel did have many holy crystals on his hand, but he didn’t have enough to be putting them in combat. In this sense, Thief God Milton was like a reserved trump card. He was very powerful, but there was a very limited set of time to be used to his full ability. Most of the time, Abel would have a lot more use with, say, Beamon giant beast Doff because at least Doff had the ability to engage in melee combat.

Abel went ahead to look towards the two divine items. There was the divine dagger and the divine mask. He didn’t have time to do a close inspection because someone might be going in from the outside to see what just happened. Instead, he went ahead to do a quick scan at his starlight defensive circle. He was surprised to see that the damage sustained was already discovered. To capture Thief God Milton, the battle forts did not receive any loss from losing several hundred top-level gemstones.

Abel gave his command, "Let’s have the golden castle switch off the seals, circle spirit."

Druid Joseph was waiting outside of the teleportation circle. He was repeating the consecutive movements of the large-sized teleportation circle. Druid Joseph, Druid Poly, Druid Gunter, and Butler Meyer were all worried because they knew something happened at the golden castle.

Druid Joseph shone his eyes, "The teleportation circle’s opened!"

These elves quickly teleported themselves back into the golden castle and into the hallroom. They only relaxed after seeing that nothing wrong happened.

Abel’s voice was sent throughout the hallroom, "I need some time for a shutdown training. Meyer Butler, having all the guests affected by what happened today make one restaurant reservation here."

Butler Meyer bowed, "Yes, Grandmaster Bennett."

They all looked at each other in a confused manner, but as long as Grandmaster Bennett was fine, they figured that the accident just then was already resolved. Grandmaster Bennett wasn’t telling them what happened, so they didn’t need to know as well. Very quickly, the servants that were teleported away were taken back. The guests that should be here were also returned. Abel wasn’t in charge of those. He was busy having the circle spirit supply new top-level gemstones for the starlight defensive circle while locking himself inside the training room.

Abel spoke to the dark spirit, "You’ll be allowed to use up the top-level gemstones, but make sure to keep all the key locations protected!"

Basically, the existence of the dark spirit was nothing but an accident. It was a special spirit, and there was no method to replicate a copy of it. It was replaceable, in a sense, and depending on the area it was protecting, the energy expenditure required would always be different. If Abel had to make an estimate, the golden castle should be spending ten-something top-level gemstones every month at minimum.

Whilst inside the training room, Abel took out a divine dagger that possessed the ability to make him disguised. This was no different from the invisibility cloak. Still, since it was a weapon and not just an item, it would be more valuable than the cloak. Actually, every divine weapon was rare and, therefore, extremely valuable. Thief God Milton had to go through a lot to forge it. He was a weak divine spirit, so forging this dagger did take up a good portion of the divine spirit inside him.

Without a second thought, Abel decided to let his angelic body use the dagger. Now both his main body and his angelic body possessed the ability to remain disguised. He couldn’t learn Thief God Milton’s skills, though. That’d have to wait until his strength was getting close to that of a divine spirit.

Very quickly, he took out a divine mask, which should be the absolute best work that Thief God Milton produced. On the surface, there were all kinds of runes drawn. The inside, too. With a scan of his power of the Will, Abel could see that many layers constituted this piece. The effect of the divine mask was basically to conceal his essence. Changing looks and voice was like a bonus.

Abel laughed as he learned what that mask could do, "The angelic body can show up at the central continent, after all!"

His absolutely most powerful unit would be his angelic body. It did have many weaknesses and things that it couldn’t do, but its ridiculous attacking power could make up for all that. And now, with the divine mask, he could fight Thief God Milton while keeping him trapped. Suppose the target was a divine spirit that was immobilized. He would have absolutely every chance to win as long as he got to make his most powerful attack hit.

To start, Abel threw the two divine items into the druid spirit. He allowed the golden spirit to cancel the ownership process and allowed his druid spirit to become the new owner. The two items went into his angelic body so they could be used at any time in the future.

Abel thought back to what he gained today. In his view, his greatest gain was not these two divine items and not Thief God Milton’s divine body. If he had to pick, it would be the complete set of divine spirit heritage that he received. It made him learn a lot about how divine spirits grew. He was also gaining a much clearer understanding of where to progress in his training.

As for whether he should become a divine spirit himself, he still had a lot of doubts.. If he wasn’t so worried about many of the consequences, he might use the faith power supplied by the high elves of the dark world.
