Chapter 496: Unexpected Progress

Abel could feel something. Even without looking at it, he could sense the crystal body inside his body emitting a strange light. Then, mysteriously, qi started spreading out of his body.

For wizards, being promoted to the next level was a very mysterious thing. Some got to the next level by drinking water. Some gained a new form of qi by doing regular meditations. Many had to force themselves into shutdown training for many years, and most of them didn’t even know what triggered them to have a power boost.

It was the same for Abel. He had been piling up energy for a very long time. It was only a matter of time before he was ready to reach the next level. He was just too busy doing other things. Once he had time to relax, it didn’t take much effort for him to form a new promotion qi.

“Who’s having a promotion right now?” Wizard Morton asked. He was sitting at the top floor of his new tower, but he could clearly sense the qi with his mana detection circle.

As he looked towards the source of energy, Wizard Morton realized that it came from the center of the fort. It was dumbfounding, to say the least. Abel had only left for a few months, but he was already moving towards being a rank seven wizard.

At the same time, Wizard Yveline felt the promotion coming from a distance. He thought that Wizard Murphy was being promoted, but that didn’t turn out to be right. Same for Wizard Murphy. With the new tower’s mana detection device, he was able to realize Abel’s breakthrough as soon as it happened.

Right now, Abel was carving his rank seven wizard rune onto his crystal body. It was a very smooth process. Actually, it was much easier than when he was trying to transform into an official wizard. It was like the universe had already accepted him for what he was.

When done, Abel knew that he had become a rank seven wizard. His dragon crystal energy started splashing into his wizard’s crystal core. All his stats received a buff that went over his total limit. It was like his body was a wine jar, and that jar suddenly got a little bigger. Not only did it expand, but it also more wine was filling the jar than before.

Right now, Abel’s total power of Will points were160. It was a massive leap forward from where he was before. Still, he was very calm about it. He expected this to happen, so it wasn’t that much of a surprise to him.

However, he did not foresee his dragon crystal energy to work like this. He didn’t think that it was going to fill up his empty qi vessels automatically. It was very volatile energy, so it seemed. If he didn’t have the dragon’s blood in him, that energy would’ve over-exhausted his body a long time ago.

As Abel scanned the 160-meter radius around him with his power of Will, he nodded to himself in satisfaction. Then, after realizing that it was time for lunch, he used the waypoint to teleport himself to the large-sized teleportation circle. From there, he then teleported himself to Harry Castle.

When he arrived, Bartoli was finally done with her cooking tutoring. She finished teaching the castle chefs the new dishes.

Since the wizards weren’t used to eating at a castle, the only ones at the restaurant were Abel and the fifteen elves Lady Carrie brought. Like before, the dwarfs were sitting in the smaller dining room.

Once lunch was over, Isiah took the time to talk to Abel.

“Grandmaster Abel, Isiah said to Abel, “It’s been a very pleasant few days, but I’ve come to say goodbye. The food was great. The wine was awesome. We’d like to thank you for your generosity, and we hope to come back soon.”

“Thank you so much for your work, Isiah,” Abel smiled, “Oh, wait! I have a gift for you all. Since you all love wine so much, I’ll let each of you go to the cellar to pick a barrel that you like.”

“Wow! Thanks! Wow, wow ha ha ha!”

Before Isiah said anything, all the other dwarfs were already starting to cheer for Abel.

When the dwarfs took their barrels, they went back and said goodbye to Abel another time. Obviously, they were all taking the master’s wine for themselves. Wizard Cyril didn’t take anything, though. He wasn’t planning to leave in the first place.

Abel didn’t mind that. He actually preferred him staying here. All he needed to keep a powerful dwarfen wizard at his place was to give some of his food and wine. It was a pretty good trade-off.

When the dwarfs were gone, Lady Carrie also came to say her farewell.

Lady Carrie went on to send a reminder, “Remember to send your recipes to Angstrom City, Grandmaster. Mother and Father will love the recipes your castle provides.”

Abel smiled, “Rest assured, Lady Carrie. I’ll appoint someone special to do that for you.”

By “special,” Abel meant his tower spirit Flora. He’s already done the set-up work. Every day, once the chefs were doing their cooking, it would use the teleportation circle to move the dishes to Angstrom City. There wasn’t anything that he needed to do manually.

“Very well, then,” Lady Carrie said, then bowed, “We’ll all be off now.”

Abel said to her, “I’ll spare the formality, Lady Carrie. Once you head back, please send out the gifts I’ve prepared for the elven circle masters and alchemists that have done their work here. For each of them, it’s ten sets of skin lotions and conditioners.”

“I’ll thank you on their behalf,” Lady Carrie bowed.

Right now, the “skin lotions” and “conditioners” were already much more expensive than when Abel first introduced them. That being said, what Abel just handed out was actually very pricey.

Abel smiled when Wizard Cyril teleported next to him, “I’ve had a mini-promotion this morning, Wizard Cyril.”

“Same here, Grandmaster,” Wizard Cyril nodded and said, “So, uh, it’s fine for me to stay here for a few more days, right?”

“Yeah, no problem. You can stay here as long as you like, Wizard Cyril. If you are here for your training, just use my six-floor magic tower for now.”
