Chapter 914: Killed
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
“I’ve never heard of an advanced potion maker in the potion maker union named Bennett. Where does this master Bennett come from?” An elite druid asked in confusion.
“I’ll leave first. Maybe I shouldn’t come in the first place!” A rank 17 druid lowered his voice and walked out.
The other rank 17 druids were not as crude. They knew walking out at this moment was very disrespectful, and it would most likely be frowned upon by this new master potion maker.
“Mr. Druids, I’m sorry for your wait. Master Bennett is sending a follower here!” Another assistant of the union walked in and bowed at the druids.
“Master Bennett doesn’t even consider us?” A druid called in dissatisfaction.
“Yeah, we’ve been waiting so long for him, and he doesn’t even show up personally!” Another druid called.
“Are you guys def? Master Bennett already has a follower!” The third druid interrupted.
All of a sudden dispute erupted in the hall. It seems like most druids were not happy with Abel’s action.
However, a scary force soon rushed in from the door, filling the hall back with silence.
Afterward, a gentle footstep emerged. Druid poly’s rank 20 druid energy was on full display.
She heard the disrespectful words that were said about Abel, so she had to teach them a lesson as a follower.
“Druids, I am Poly, the first follower of Master Bennett!” She looked around the room and lowered her voice.
She actually didn’t need to introduce herself. Every elite druid knew her as a powerful figure, and everyone had their eyes wide open when they heard she became the follower of master Bennett.
“Master Bennett is a genius, so his followers can not be weak. As far as I can see, none of you are powerful enough!” Druid Poly continued.
He gazed around one more. There was a rank 16 druid, Gunter, with some potential, but all the other ones were hopeless.
She was disappointed. With Abel’s genius, he deserved a druid with the potential to level up even for a normal follower without a contract, not those hopeless bastards who just stick around for benefits.
None of the druids dared to say a word. They knew how powerful Druid Poly was, and they all lost the hope of becoming Abel’s followers.
“Druid Gunter, come with me. All the other druids can go!” Druid Poly said her last words and turned.
Excitement filled the heart of Druid Gunter. He was a below-average rank 16, and he was not expecting to get in at all.
But since druid Poly had a better eye for potential than Master potion makers, his hidden potential had become his upside.
He knew he was faced with an important opportunity. Even if master Bennett didn’t give him any resources, the guidance of a rank 20 druid was valuable enough.
“Druid Gunter, let me be clear with you. You might not become the official follower of Master Bennett since master Bennett is a rank 18 druid himself. Of course, if you can show your value, Master Bennett will provide you with resources!” Druid Poly walked with Druid Gunter.
“Ms. Poly, I agree to serve Master Bennett!” Druid Gunter replied almost without thinking.
He did not trust master Bennett but in Druid Poly. If even someone like her decision to become his follower, this master Bennett must be attractive enough.
When Druid Poly returned to the private room of Abel, he was still chatting with Master Muir and Master Nolan.
“Master Bennett, this is druid Gunter. He is rank 16, one with a lot of potential!” Druid Poly bowed.
“Nice to meet you, master Bennett!” Druid Gunter immediately bowed as well.
“Druid Gunter, follow me for a month. If you are suitable, then you can stay!” Abel smiled and bowed back.
“Master Bennett, druid Poly is very picky. You’ve made the right choice for letting her choose!” Master Muir laughed and said.
Most of the druids who came to apply were through their connection to master Muir, so master Muir knew how many powerful ones there were. However, none of them met up to Druid Poly’s standard.
“Master Muir, no need to be jealous. You should find a rank 20 follower as well!” Master Nolan laughed as well.
“It’s quite late now. Master Bennett. I believe you still have some personal business to take care of, so I’ll leave you to it!” Master Muir smiled and bowed.
“Master Bennett, I also have some things to take care of. We’ll talk later!” Master Nolan also stood up and smiled.
After the 2 masters walked off, Abel turned to Druid Poly and said, “Druid Poly, I need to head back to my place in the kingdom city. You can go with Druid Gunter first!”
“Master Bennett, I am your follower. I’ll come with you. It’s also good where you leave!” Druid Poly bowed.
Druid Gunter kept his mouth shut and bowed, but his intention was clear. He would do anything Druid Poly did.
Soon, a luxury carriage from the potion maker union was heading towards Bay Law City carrying Abel and his 2 followers. Along the way, even noble carriages had to give way, which showed the status of the shiny symbol of the potion maker union.
Druid Poly Summoned a mad wolf to follow behind the carriage.
According to Druid Poly, that mad wolf was not only her mount. She trained it for many years, and it was even more sensitive to danger than her. Therefore, normally she would not put it in a portal bag.
The carriage came to a halt in front of Abel’s mansion. However, things looked a little strange. The gate was not locked, and there was a little slit.
Things like this would never happen in a noble mansion with the systematic operation of a steward.
The was the failure of a steward, a serious failure.
“Master Bennett, don’t get down yet!” A cold gaze flashed in Druid Poly’s eyes as she stopped Abel, who was about to get off.
Her mad wolf gently howled from behind, seems like it had spotted something.
“My mad wolf sensed death qi, let me go have a look!” She connected to her mad wolf and explained.
“Druid Poly. We’ll go together. I believe in the protection circle of the city!” Abel shook his head and lowered his voice.
Druid Poly insisted on leading the way, and Abel did not argue with her since she was the most powerful. On the other hand, Druid Gunter was the weakest, so he followed at the very back.
As soon as they opened the gate, they saw Steward Eden’s dead body laying flat on the ground with a wound in his chest.
Afterward, they came across the dead bodies of the 3 half-elf warriors around the mansion.
“Master Bennett, their wounds are made by a professional assassin!” Druid Poly was in disbelief. This was the place of a master potion maker. Who would have the guts to murder his servants and steward.
“Can you identify the murderer?” A murderous gaze flashed in Abel’s eyes, and he lowered his voice.
He didn’t know steward Eden too well since they just met. But still, he felt bad that a steward and 3 half-elf warriors had died because of him. It was a direct insult.
“Master Bennett, yes, I can find the murderer for you. They are professionals, but they haven’t been gone for long. I can follow their mad wolf’s scent and track them down. But since this incident happened in Bay Law City, it is best to contact the potion maker union. It is a great insult to all of us!” Druid Poly gently stroked her mad wolf and said.
“Druid Poly, you and I can find the murder. Druid Gunter, you report this to the union!” Abel said in command.
“Yes, master Bennett!” The 2 followers replied.
Afterward, Abel summoned a mad wolf, and Druid Poly jumped on her mad wolf. Afterward, they sped after the scent. A carriage was no match to their speed.
.....
In the center of the New Asian Kingdom, Queen Luisa was listening to a report from her reporter in her luxury palace.
“Majesty, the potion maker union got a new master potion maker called Master Bennett. We’ve invested in him. His identity was registered by the Lenny family just a few days ago!” The elf reporter took out a lambskin parchment and bowed.
“Master Bennett, this name sounds familiar!” Queen Luisa gently nodded.
“Majesty, according to our speculation, he is most likely the master Bennett from the Holy Continent. We just didn’t know how he got to the Central Continent!” The reporter bowed again.
Most of the elves in the Central Continent lived in the New Asia Kingdom. Therefore, the reports from the subcontinents would eventually go through the New Asian Kingdom’s investigation department.
Therefore under this vast amount of data, Abel’s elf identity was easily exposed. Luckily not many elves knew about Abel’s human identity. The ones who did were his closest allies.
“He is that master with the magical Beauty Potion!” Queen Luisa suddenly remembered.
She might have forgotten the name of Master Bennett, but she would never forget the magical power reported about those beauty potions. Even as the queen of the elves, she could never have the chance to try one since every beauty potion was distributed to a dedicated owner, and the ones lucky enough to get a beauty potion would use it immediately.
“Yes, according to the witness, Master Nolan has already revived her youth. This is the reason we predict that Master Bennett is Master Bennett from the Holy Continent!”
“Hehe! Master Bennett really underestimated his master alchemist identity. He could just use the super teleportation circle of the Holy Continent to come here. No one in their right mind will reject him!” Queen Luisa giggled and shook her head.
She was in a good mood. Her dream of getting a beauty potion might finally come to reality.
“Our investigation department in the Holy Continent doubts the identity of this Master Bennett is because he rarely interacts with other elves other than Grand Duke Edwina in Angstrom City. All of his information was sent out by her!” The reporter continued.
He actually couldn’t care less about Master Bennett’s identity. He was just responsible for informing Queen Luisa.
“Are you guys doubting Master Bennett’s identity as well? Queen Luisa was suddenly struck by something. She knew there were some potions or special magic gear that could help one change identity.
