Abe the Wizard

Chapter 790: Impact

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

10 days had passed since Abel had stayed in the Moga City Alchemy Union. He and Master Fettes did not step out of the operation room for even a second during this time. Master Fettes had given out all he got to show Abel every Metallurgy skills he had.

There were many failures. As the rank of the material increases, the chance of failure would increase with it.

Especially high-rank metallurgy materials. They only had a 10% success rate. Also, high-rank metallurgy ingredients were precious, which was why elite alchemist dwarfs were very rare.

The value of those ingredients limited the opportunity they could do metallurgy. Therefore they could not generate enough golden energy to help them level up.

To show Abel all the skills, the alchemy union had almost given Master Fettes permission to use unlimited amounts of ingredients.

Materials made through metallurgy were often enough to create small objects. A short wizard magic staff was the biggest thing you could make. With this in mind, you could imagine how many attempts you would need to create a short wizard magic staff.

“Master Bennett, do you understand?” Asked Master Fettes with a fatigued look on his face.

Abel thought deeply for a moment. It seemed like he was still trying to memorize what Master Fettes had done. Afterward, he stepped in front of the alchemy platform and repeated what Master Fettes had done.

They were trying to make high-rank materials. Master Fettes had failed 12 times in total, and there were only 2 portions left.

Abel kept putting the ingredients into the crucible while mumbling spells from time to time. Each step was perfect.

Master Fettes had lost all jealousy in the past 10 days. He had seen too much. The only thing left was to finish up his teaching and get away from Abel as soon as possible.

Abel’s existence had taken a bit hit to his confidence, and he was afraid that his last bit of confidence would be destroyed if they stayed with Abel any longer.

Abel had shocked him too much. He needed to sacrifice large amounts of effort for success every time, but Abel could do the same effortlessly.

Abel had never failed once from low rank to intermediate rank alchemy, and even to high-rank alchemy.

He did not hate on Abel. He just wanted to regain a bit of confidence.

When Abel yelled ‘quality increase,’ the rainbow lights shootout and retreated, leaving only a blue shine. At that moment, all color was drained from the eyes of Master Fettes. He felt like an idiot.

Master Fettes then gently bowed at Abel. But before Abel could even bow back, he was already on his way. The only thing he wanted these past few days was to leave this operation room and never returned. He swore he would never return.

No alchemist could comprehend his feelings. All the other dwarf alchemists were jealous that he could have close interaction with Master Bennett, but none of them knew what he had gone through these 10 days.

Abel took out the blue high-rank material from the crucible. It was sparking in blue lightning arcs. Suddenly an idea came across his mind. Should he learn how to make a magic circle?

A magic circle needed many different materials, and their most important magic materials were made through metallurgy. Since he mastered metallurgy, he could make any magic circles he wanted if how to learn to make magic circles as well.

But this was only an idea. Was he really going to transform into another identity through his transformation necklace to learn how to make a magic circle?

Abel shook his head. Let’s leave that to the future. The most important thing now was to finish Bernie’s favor and return to his training.

He then lifted his head again. He realized when Master Fettes had already left without him knowing.

When Abel walked out of the operation room, he saw Master Benchley stepped up and bowed, “Master Bennett, I’ll take you to the Goff Family.

“Master Benchley, where is Master Fettes?” Abel asked in confusion.

These days Master Fettes had always stayed by his side. He wanted to thank him personally, but Master Fettes had left without him knowing.

“Master Fettes is not feeling well, so he asked me to assist you!” Master Benchley bowed.

Although Master Benchley didn’t know what exactly happened to Master Fettes, he heard him mumble “monster, deformed, demon” with a distressed look on his face. It seemed like his confidence was hurt by Master Bennett.

But of course, Master Benchley would not tell anyone about this. Master Fettes was a Master Alchemist of honor in the Alchemy Union in Mogadishu city at the end of the day. He should help him save some face.

“Master Benchley, please help me let Master Fettes know how thankful I am to him. He helped me a lot!” Abel bowed.

“Master Bennett, I will let him know!” Said Master Benchley with his eyes sparkling.

The two alchemists stepped on a carriage and arrived at the teleportation circle in Mogadishu City. Afterward, they teleported to the Goff family’s domain.

“Master Bennett, How’s metallurgy?” Bernie has been waiting next to the teleportation circle. He had come back early because of the Flying boats. He got Abel’s news in just 10 days, so he was a bit skeptical.

“Bernie, I’ve mastered it!” Abel said with a smile.

“Already?” Bernie knew Abel had amazing learning skills, but it was still hard to believe that he had accomplished something alchemists spent countless years on in just 10 days.

Bernie then turned towards Master Be, and Master Benchley let out an awkward smile. Even he couldn’t believe it himself. But he knew Abel was not lying after he saw the look on Master Fettes’s face.

Master Fettes’s confidence was destroyed. What could have given him such a big impact? The Alchemy Union in Moga City really had a big loss. Master Fettes might take a long time to recover.

“Master Bennett, how did you learn metallurgy this quickly?” Bernie couldn’t help himself and blurb out a stupid question.

“Bernie, it’s simple. You need to grasp the change in the condition of the materials!” Abel smiled again.

His words made Bernie speechless. If it was really that simple, how come only a handful of dwarfs could become metallurgists? How come magic jewelry was so rare in the Holy Continent?

On the other hand, Master Benchley felt his brain hurt after hearing Abel’s words. Metallurgy is simple? You could learn it in 10 days? What has he been doing all his life? What’s the meaning of his hundreds of years of effort?

He realized why Master Fettes was so traumatized by Abel. If Abel was not lying and metallurgy really was this easy to him, Master Fettes must be very strong to make it through 10 days with a monster like this.

“Master Bennett, Bernie, I realized I have something to take care of in the union. I’ll leave you for now!” Master Benchley bowed at Abel and said.

Abel looked at him with gratitude and bowed back. Afterward, he quickly walked back to the teleportation circle and vanished from the Goff Family.

“Master Benchley must be very busy. I still want to learn more from him. Oh well!” Abel sighed.

He just learned Metallurgy. He only knew how to operate, not fundamental knowledge. If he had the chance in the future, he would definitely have a good chat with Master Benchley.

Bernie had a strange look on his face. His original plan was to have one master alchemist of honor to stay with Abel. Why did all of them run away?
