Chapter 174: Rune Pen

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

After the meal, Wizard Morton called the waiter and requested two rooms. He then turned towards Abel and said, “I have something to talk to Wizard Johnson about. You can go back to your room and have a rest, or go for a walk outside. Just make sure you don’t leave the city. It is very safe here.”

“Yes, Teacher!” Abel saw that since the two haven’t seen each other for a long time. He didn’t want to disturb them anymore. He stood up, bowed, and left.

Under the guidance of the waiter, Abel arrived in his room. It was a typical room. However, there was something different about this typical room. There was a magic circle in the corner of this room. In the center of that magic circle was a cushion, and on the left side of the magic circle was a small gap. It seemed like it was for a magic gem.

Since Abel didn’t know what that magic circle was for, so he did not try it out. Instead, he took out the barrier circle from his portal bag and ignited it. He then took out a bag full of soul catching grass. However, he was not ready to enter the Rogue encampment in a place like this. Although he was protected by the barrier circle, he was still in the territory of the Wizard Union. Who knew if there were any mechanism sensitive to dimensions.

Abel canceled the barrier circle. Since he did not want to waste any of his precious time, he took out his carving knife and started making more rune signs without any other thing to do. All of the crystal cores in his portal bag were already reshaped into a rectangle shape with the ‘crystal core reshaper’ his teacher had given him, and most of these crystal cores were came from Wizard Black.

When Wizard Morton had given Abel the ‘crystal core reshaper,’ Abel never thought that these things could be purchased with credit. Good thing the rune ink for his magic weapons don’t need to be specifically made by a potion maker. Else he wouldn’t be the Abel he was.

When Abel was just getting his carving knife ready, a question popped into his head. According to what his teacher Wizard Morton had said, the runes were slightly different among different schools of Wizardry. Does that mean the runes drawn by wizards were not all totally perfect?

Suddenly, Abel thought of the dark gold-colored rune pen, the ‘Akara rune pen.’ When he was making those exploding big swords, this rune pen had the ability to forcefully correct runes. As long as the mistakes were small, the ‘Akara rune pen’ would send out a reminder, as well as forcing the user in the right direction.

It seemed like he could use the ‘Akara rune pen’ to sketch out a perfect rune first, before etching it down on a crystal core.

Abel found a bottle of ink in the room and dipped the ‘Akara rune pen’ in ink. He was ready to write a rune on the surface of a fire crystal core.

He decided to first test it out with the Ral rune. As the number 8 rune, Abel had drawn it many times in the past. It’s ability included, increase fire damage by 5-30 points, and increase fire defense for 30%.

However, one of the finished products Abel had in his portal bag could only have 3-15 points of fire damage, which meant there was something deeply wrong about the rune.

Abel held the ‘Akara rune pen’ on his right hand, and secured the crystal on the table with his left hand. Just like that, he began drawing the rune.

Just as expected, the ‘Akara rune pen’ kept correcting him as he was drawing the rune. Although they were all small mistakes, they could still have a great effect on the rune’s performance when they added up. Abel thought his teacher Wizard Morton was already expertise in rune sign making, and the runes from his school of Wizardry were generally more powerful than others. So most of the runes signs out there must not be powerful at all.

This drawing session had deepened Abel’s understanding of the Ral rune by a lot. Although he could not remember all the mistakes he made, he was certain he could make a perfect rune sign one day if he continued to practice.

However, when Abel saw the ink drawn perfect rune on the surface of the crystal core, he immediately face-palmed himself. How stupid was he? Wasn’t this a model for a perfect rune sign? He only needed to etch out the ink drawn rune with his carving knife. Then he wouldn’t make a mistake.

This etching session was perfect. Abel smoothly followed the lines of the ink drawn rune, and perfectly etched out the rune while injecting the mana within it.

After a white light flashed upon the rune sign, the rune on the rune sign had entirely disappeared. The rune sign had turned in to an empty crystal core sign. The only difference was that it had turned pure white from the original red color.

Abel couldn’t even believe himself as he held the rune sign in his hand. This rune sign looked nothing like his old ones. Could it actually work?

Just in case, he let the Horadric cube to examine it. Abel threw the rune sign in his Horadric cube and focused his power of the will on the rune sign.

Lar rune sign

+4-25 points fire damage

Increase fire defense 30%

From this, he could see that this rune sign was much better than the ones he made before. Akara used to use this ‘Akara rune pen’ to write his scrolls on normal lambskin parchment in the Rogue encampment, but it could still generate magical effects. That level of skill was much greater than etching a rune on a crystal core with energy.

Abel put away that much more powerful rune sign he just made and picked up his ‘Akara rune pen again.’ He was ready to make the second Ral rune sign.

The life of a wizard was boring as hell. Abel did not stop etching until his dinner was delivered by the waiter. He had made 6 Ral rune signs in total. On top of the 20 runes signs he made before, he now had 26 fire attack Ral rune signs on him. In regards to the ice attack Shael rune sign, he had 15. He had 10 of the poison Ral rune sign. He had 3 of the electric attack Ort rune sign. As for the attack rune signs he got from the dark Wizard Black, none of them really caught his eye, so he just gave it to Carlos to help him sell them off.

In order to make a defense rune sign, an attribute-less crystal core was required. Abel did not have any attribute-less crystal core, so he only had five defense rune signs on him. He got 3 of them from the dark Wizard Black. It included two no.1 Ral rune signs and one no.2 Shael rune signs. He also gained 2 of them from the worgen prince, which were both no.12 Thur rune signs.

Actually, Abel’s favorite was the no.1 Ral rune sign. Although it was the smallest number of the Ral rune family, it’s ability was quite strong. +50 hit rate, +1 light rate, +15 defence.

However, the second no.1 Ral rune signs he had were not as powerful as the true no.1 Ral rune sign. Still, it could increase defense in general– Not only in physical defense but also in magic defense as well.

Abel had made a lot of magic weapons using the rune on the no.12 Thur rune sign. The no12 Thur rune’s ability was a little bit direct. +9 minimum damage, absorb physical impact 7.

Actually, the Thur rune signs that were already ready-made were not as strong.

Although he didn’t know what had motivated his passion for rune signs all of a sudden this morning, he still wanted to start making more of them just in case. He shoved all of the rune signs he had made into his portal bag. If something had happened, he would be able to use it. Afterward, he checked up on his ice magic sword and the magic shield. Then he put them back in his portal bag again.

“Knock knock!” A knock came from the door, so Abel immediately stepped up to open the door.

“Teacher!” That’s right. It was Wizard Morton.

“Abel, I’m here to see you.” Wizard Morton followed Abel into the doom and gazed at the magic circle by the corner. He then asked, “Abel, didn’t you use this magic circle?”

“Teacher, I still haven’t tested out the ability of this magic circle.” Said Abel touching his head in slight embarrassment.

Wizard Morton then turned his head to the table, seeing some small scraps left over by the etching. He gently nodded his head and said, “you had made good use of your time practicing making rune signs. That’s very good, that’s the spirit of a wizard. Keep it up, and you can go even further on your journey as a wizard.”

“Yes, teacher!” Abel nodded his head and said seriously.

“This is a mana gathering circle. It was designed for wizards. If the hotel didn’t have this magic array, no wizards would want to live here.”

As Wizard Morton was speaking, he, too, out an intermediate magic gem and place it on the gap next to the circle. He then proceeded to say to Abel, “I’ll get going now. You only need to ignite this magic circle, and you can meditate just like when you were in the magic tower.”

Actually, the whole reason why Wizard Morton had come to Abel’s room was to teach him how to use this mana gathering circle. Abel fully understood his teacher’s intentions as a sense of gratitude raised from his heart.

After Wizard Morton had left, Abel ignited the mana gathering circle with his power of the will. Waves of mana rushed from the circle. Although the mana concentration was only 70% as dense as the most mana concentrated area of the magic tower, he was still in shock that he could meditate outside of the magic tower.
