Chapter 444 Visi
Wizard Lorenzo was listening to the investigation department’s report with the situation last night. He was the one who had picked those 4 scapegoats since they were a ruthless bunch. They had been reported countless times, but he never had any evidence to charge them. Now, they need to repay many times over. Maybe they would all need to spend their entire life in the labor camp from now on.
Then he thought of Abel, which inevitably led to the thought of the Duchy of Keyen. Originally he thought Abel was innocent since they didn’t have any evidence back then, but now the same thing had occurred. Although the explosion was smaller this time, the similarities were too much to ignore.
Grand Master Abel must have had some kind of powerful explosion technique, Wizard Lorenzo was certain. Grand Master Abel might also have a lot of secret helpers, maybe the dwarfs.
All his speculations made Wizard Lorenzo carefully rethink Abel all over again. Laws couldn’t apply to a high-status destructive person like this, but through all this information, it was clear that Abel loved his family.
Abel probably wouldn’t mess with you, as long as you didn’t mess with him. Therefore, it was better to keep Abel happy.
Just when Elite Wizard Lorenzo had confirmed his decision to dismiss the investigation department reporter, another reporter rushed in.
“Mr. Lorenzo, 267 wizards have gathered outside of the court, and they demand to harshly punish the Forgotten Land attackers, expose the people who organized it, and give them an explanation!”
“Grand Master Abel!” Wizard Lorenzo’s brain began to hurt. His worst nightmare had come true. It seems like Grand Master Abel was not satisfied with destroying the 27 restaurants of the Food and Beverage Alliance; he wants to expose the man behind this.
“Quickly sent out some law enforcement wizards to block them!” Wizard Lorenzo commanded.
“Master Lorenzo, please resolve this quickly because there are also more and more knights, and warriors related to the wizards joining. Not only that, but there are wizards outside of the Forgotten Land calling more wizards to gather!” The reporter had become desperate.
“Seems like the only way to resolve this is to make the Forgotten Land open again. I’ll go visit Grand Master Abel right now!” Said Wizard Lorenzo nodding his head.
Time was tight, so Wizard Lorenzo teleported outside of Abel’s gate through his magic circle control card. As he stared at Abel’s ordinary courtyard, he couldn’t help but shake his head. Who could have guessed a Grand Master would live in such a place.
For such a top-ranking professional with a special ability like Abel, he would at least have a mansion if he had requested an accommodation from Linate City. It seemed like Abel didn’t know, or even if he did, he wouldn’t want to owe someone a favor. As long as he had a place to live is ok, he wasn’t planning to stay in Linate City for long anyway.
At first, Abel just wanted to play around in Linate City for a bit; he only decided to stay for longer after he noticed all the military-grade resources he could obtain by credit points. Especially after opening up the Forgotten Land, which had brought him seemingly endless credit points, he decided to stay and accumulated resources as much as possible.
“Knock knock!” Wizard Lorenzo knocked on Abel’s door.
Afterward, Wizard Lorenzo felt the mana wave of a ‘Move in Flash’ from inside the door.
The door opened, and intermediate wizard, Ms. Bartoli, stood on the other side. At that moment, she was wearing an apron with a spatula. She was still cooking.
Wizard Lorenzo had a hard time believing what he saw. Intermediate wizards were extremely prestigious within the Holy Continent, and they were their main fighting power.
How could a person with such a prestigious status be cooking? It made sense if they were in the wild, but they were in the city. Normally, they all had the privilege of nobles, and it was their basic right to have more than enough servants to serve them.
“Who are you looking for?” She couldn’t care less about the spatula in her hand. He didn’t care how other people look at her, only her master mattered.
“I am Elite Wizard Lorenzo, Can I please see Grand Master Abel!” Said Wizard Lorenzo with both hands in front of his chest and bowed.
“Err…” Bartoli had never seen an Elite Wizard before. Although she didn’t know much about the Holy Continent, she knew elite wizards were the most powerful authority in the Holy Continent. If it was a normal visitor, she could just directly reject them but seemed like she couldn’t with the Elite Wizard.
“Let Elite Wizard Lorenzo come in!” Abel’s voice emerged from the house.
Upon hearing her Master’s voice, Bartoli quickly bowed and said, “Please come in, Elite Wizard Lorenzo!”
Afterward, Abel said to Elite Wizard Lorenzo, “Elite Wizard Lorenzo, Bartoli has cooked a lot today. Since you came for a rare visit today, let’s eat together, if you don’t mind!
“I hope that’s not too much of a bother, Grand Master Abel!” Said Wizard Lorenzo as he walked into the room.
The room was extremely ordinary, it was not much different from other houses around here with its ordinary decorations, ordinary design, and ordinary furniture.
However, when he saw Abel standing up from his chair and greeted him with a smile, everything had turned extraordinary.
In the eyes of Wizard Lorenzo Abel was no longer that harmless-looking Grand Master Blacksmith with a beginner wizard badge, but a Grand Master Blacksmith with a secretly destructive force.
Although Abel was a beginner Wizard, to Wizard Lorenzo, this status was basically nothing compared to his Grand Master Blacksmith status.
No matter how shabby the house of a Grand Master was, it still needed to withstand the attack of countless elites. Wizard Lorenzo was unsure if it was his bias, but this Grand Master in the format of him seemed a lot more mature than his appearance.
“Please sit down. I’m not too flashy, but the food is the best!” Abel said with a smile.
“Of course, the restaurant your steward opened attracted a lot of customers. If I wasn’t so busy, I would definitely want to have a try!” said with a smile of admiration.
“No matter what brought you here today, you came just in time. Let’s eat together; we’ll chat afterward!” Said Abel in a friendly tone. He had a deep respect for every elite wizard since he knew how hard it must be to achieve such a level. Every Elite Wizard had countless years of hard work behind them. Ever since Abel realized how powerful they were, he wanted to have a good chat with one of them; it was best to not make them an enemy.
“Grand Master Abel, how could I say no? It’s my privilege today to have a taste of your amazing dishes!” Wizard Lorenzo was also very friendly to Abel. Their interaction was very smooth; he felt like Abel was quite easy to talk to. At least Abel had been very friendly towards him for their past two interactions.
At that moment, Bartoli flashed next to the table with a tray full of dishes on her hand, and an irresistible smell emerged.
By this point, even Wizard Lorenzo couldn’t help but salivate. This smell was even more intoxicating than the reports had described. The reports just stated the food from the Forgotten Land had an irresistible smell, but no matter how many words they added, this smell was truly something you had to experience for yourself to understand.
Bartoli was using ‘Move in Flash’ even when she was bringing out the food. It was as though she was still practicing ‘Move in a Flash,’ according to the report, Bartoli was a powerful intermediate Wizard with an Outstanding grasp of Fire elements.
Seeing the confused look on Wizard Lorenzo’s face, Abel explained, “Bartoli had always been interested in Fire spells and kinda forgot about lighting spells, so she is doubling down on her training now!”
“What a weird wizard!” Wizard Lorenzo thought to himself.
