Chapter 187 - Thank you
“Wait for us. Carlos and I will be there in a second. Don’t leave okay?” Camille gently asked Abel after screaming at him.
“No worries, I’ll wait for you guys here.” Abel did not have a single bit of information in regards to the other wizards from the Duchy of Keyen. It was already late, and the sky would be completely dark by the time he reached the other mine, so he thought to might as well wait for others here.
After Abel disconnected with Camille, he ignited his identity card again.
“Uncle Sam, Its Abel.” Said Abel as soon as he got connected again.
“Abel, I’ve been worrying about you. Why didn’t you go together with your teammates?” The voice of Wizard Sam emerged from his identity card.
“Uncle Sam, there’s something I want to talk to you about.” Said Abel hesitantly as he gazed at the dead body of Carrol on the ground.
“Abel, what happened?” Wizard Sam quickly asked. He could hear that Abel’s voice sounded a little weird,
“Carrol died, he died in a civil war with the wizards from the Duchy of Keyen,” Said Abel after thinking about how he should structure his words.
“Carrol died?” Wizard Sam had known Carrol for 10 years. A cold sensation dawned on his heart when he heard that Carrol had died. But then, He thought of what Abel had said again and called “civil war? A civil war with the Duchy of Keyen?”
“Yeah, he called me on his identity and told me to meet up with him on Lenida mountain. However, when I arrived, he and 7 wizards from the Duchy of Keyen was already there waiting for me there.” Abel lowered his voice and gave a simple description of what just happened.
“Carrol was such an idiot. How could he do that.” Said Wizard Same with a mixture of anger and sadness.
“Uncle Sam, please come here and take away the dead body of Carrol. He had got killed in battle, and I don’t want Mr. Yveline to be sad.” Abel heard that Wizard Yveline cared about him a lot, so he didn’t want to affect his status.
“Thank you, Abel” of course. Wizard Sam knew that Abel didn’t have to do this. What he had done was showing respect to him and his teacher Wizard Yveline.
After the call was disconnected, Abel moved the dead body of Carrol to aside. He didn’t search him. Instead, he found a shirt and covered the dead body.
Afterward, he stacked the other 7 dead bodies to the side and took out all the things on their body.
“Peasants!” Abel exclaimed as he threw the things in his portal bag. There was not a single defense rune sign among these 7 wizards, only 10 fire and ice rune sign. He gathered up the magic gold cards into a pile. These things were useless you couldn’t get the money out of them, let’s just bring it back to his teacher and see.
Abel found a slightly smoother rock, took out a high leg crystal glass, and poured half a glass of red wine in. He then sat on the rock, slowly enjoying the wine while looking over the view on this rocky mountain. Even without the dead bodies, the view here would still be unique.
In the past, Abel would rarely drink red wine, and he always just drink fruit juice. However, ever since he realized the red wine combined through the Horadric cube was good for his body, he was hooked on it.
As Black Wind was looking at Abel enjoying sip and sip of red wine by his side, it’s curiosity got the best of him. It leaned it’s head towards Abel and gently rub against him. However, its eyes were fixed on the wine glass on its owner’s hand as it stuck its tongue out, enjoying the aroma of the red wine in the air.
Seeing the look on Black Wind’s face, Abel helplessly poured the rest of the wine in his glass into Its mouth. Seeing the glass was empty, Black Wind happily run. With a heart full of satisfaction, it layed on the ground enjoying the after taste.
Abel took out the ‘Ankara rune pen’ and a piece of ice crystal core. He then shifted his attention towards the ‘Shael’ rune he was carving on the crystal core. It was so enjoyable to see the ‘Ankara rune pen’ fixing up all the little mistakes of his ‘Shael’ rune.
Not long after, the Abel, who was deep in his carving state, was woken up by a sound of horses running. He put away his ‘Ankara rune pen’ and his crystal core, as he held Harry’s bow in his hand. He was almost sitting at the peak, so he could get a good view of the valley below.
When Abel saw the face of the man, he retracted his Harry’s bow and jumped down the big rock as he shouted towards the man, “Uncle Sam!”
“Abel!” Wizard Sam arrived at Abel’s side with his horse. He then jumped down from the horse and gave Abel a hug.
“I just had a call with the teacher. He said thank you!” Said Wizard Sam as he let go of Abel.
“Uncle Sam, at first, I was not planning to let Mr. Yveline know about this,” Abel said softly.
“Teacher has to know about this. Laden and Toris are in a similar situation with Carrol, so if teacher didn’t pay closer attention, we might end up with a second or third Carrol. Thank you so much.” Said Wizard Same after he sighed.
“You are my uncle, and I am a member of Yveline magic tower, so no need to say thank you.” Said Abel. He still had his Yveline magic tower givings identity card on him, and every month Yveline magic tower would give him givings.
“Yeah, that’s clear in my heart. Anyway, I’ll bring the dead body of Carrol back first!”
Wizard Sam’s heart sank as he saw the dead family’s body on the ground covered with a shirt. So many years of friendship had ended just like that in one mistake.
“Let’s go home!” Wizard Sam mumbled to the dead body as of Carrol as he placed it on the horse.
Abel did not disturb Wizard Sam. He watched as the shadow of Wizard Sam and his horse disappeared from a turn down the valley, as the sound of the horse running gets fainter and fainter.
Suddenly, Abel was woken up from his thoughts by his vibrating identity card. After he ignited it, the voice of Carlos came from within.
“Haha Abel, your magic cane is too good,” Carlos laughed loudly and said from the other side of the identity card.
“What happened, Carlos?” Abel could tell that Carlos was very excited just by his voice.
“Camille and I had also ran into 7 wizards from the Duchy of Keyen. After a big fight, we’re okay, and all the 7 wizards from the Duchy of Keyen died.” Said Carlos with a voice full of pride, it was almost like he had just become an official wizard.
“Why don’t you mention how may rune sign you had used, Carlos you money waster.” The voice of Camille came from the other side of the identity card.
“So what, didn’t I get all of them back from the body of those bastards?” Carlos tried to justify himself.
“Are you comparing the rune signs of those bastards with the ones we make?” Camille asked again.
“Let me speak. I am also holding the identity card, can you show me some respect!” Abel was irritated by Camille and Carlos’s argument. However, he could also tell from this, how they were able to kill the 7 attacking wizards so easily without a single injury. It was through Carlos rune sign wasting strategy with the enhancement of the magic cane.
There were 2 rank 3 wizards in that 7 wizards. The rest of them were below rank 3, so their fighting ability was not strong at all. It was a bad day for them to run into Camille and Carlos.
Camille and Carlos had just got their new supreme magic cane today, and since both of them were rune makers, they would carry around a lot more rune signs than normal wizards. From that point on, the fate of those low ranking wizards was set.
“Where are you guys, I’ll go to find you,” Abel knew the two wouldn’t be able to make it back themselves since there were 7 dead bodies they needed to be taken care of.
Carlos reported to Abel his direction. It was not far from where he was. He gazed at the 7 filthy dead bodies on the ground. He didn’t really want to throw them into his own portal bag. After a bit of consideration, he decided to throw them into the space finger joint. He rarely used that thing anyway, the only thing inside it was just some useless poisons.
By the time Abel reached the spot where Carlos had reported with Black Wind, the sky was red. It would be completely dark in a moment. Carlos was sitting on a rock frowning at the dead bodies on the ground, when he saw Abel, he immediately jumped up with excitement, waving his hand.
On the other hand, Camille acted like she didn’t know Carlos as she said to Abel with a smile, “Abel, you arrived at last.”
” Camille, you guys are too good, not a single wizard had escaped.” Said Abel as he stared at the 7 dead bodies on the ground. Of course, there were some burned up bodies of horses as well.
“Yeah sure, this Carlos guy was crazy. He even burned the 7 wizards along with their horses.” Said Camille angrily.
I’m just afraid that if they had a horse, they would be able to escape….” the more Carlos spoke, the softer his voice became.
“Teacher just said we need to bring these dead bodies back ourselves, so how are we going to do that?” Camille asked
