Chapter 1023: Saying Farewell

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

While Frankenstein was piling the items in front of him, Mead’s body was being warped around by the dimension force around him. The large-size teleportation circle was already in operation, so he didn’t have a choice even if he was planning on leaving.

Mead cursed before he vanished, “I curse you, coward! You didn’t even have the guts to show your face!”

Frankenstein was planning on putting all the stuff on the ground into the portal bag. When he realized that the bag containing the legendary item couldn’t fit in, he had it on his waist. Abel was watching from White Cloud’s back. He looked at the large-size teleportation circle with his soul chain. He knew that Mead was still on his way, struggling to escape.

He shook his head, “Frankenstein! Take the magic gemstones off!”

With a white light flashing out of his hand, Frankenstein followed the order and took out the gemstones from the energy slot. The large-sized teleportation circle stopped moving after all the stones were taken off. As the light on the circle disappeared, the whole circle had pretty much lost its function. Abel’s next order was to have Frankenstein stay at the same spot. There was a distance of ten miles in between, so whether it was him or those law-defying wizards, they would have plenty of time to arrive in a very short time.

With Doff there, the large road mark became the destination of all the law-defying wizards. Abel was a bit slow, but he managed to catch up to them after jumping down from White Cloud.

Wizard Hal spoke first, “The mad knight’s gone!”

Abel wasn’t surprised, “That one had a lot of protective items on him. He seems to be very resourceful, even by the standards of the nation of evil.”

Wizard Hal laughed out loudly, “Yes, yes! We do have a lot of rewards though.”

Apart from Abel, these were all members of the Wizard Union. As for a mad knight that robbed the sacred item of the barbarians, they honestly didn’t care that much. The order they got was to reinforce Battlecry City, and now that most of the sacred knights and mad knights were killed, going after the only one that was spared just didn’t seem all that important to them. No, especially when the number of mad knights who had died in this battle was the greatest in the last several centuries.

The Nation of God was rushing too much. After the elven race, they didn’t give themselves much time to rest before they commenced another large-scale war. In fact, it was the fact that the elven race was attacked that got the Wizard Union the sense of alertness to respond so well despite how quickly the mad knights attacked. Abel had a lot to do with it, of course. His sky sparrow was the one that helped to call for reinforcement in time.

Also, now that they were outside the temple, Abel and his summoned creatures managed to kill several mad knights and make everything so much easier for the Wizard Union. It was why the eleven law-defying wizards all thought that he was the one that helped them with this victory.

One law-defying wizard smiled and asked, “I think you should take the teleportation circle, Master Bennett. You technically earned it yourself, and I don’t mind dismantling it here for you.”

Abel was very happy to hear that, “That would great, Wizard Hussey!”

Wizard Hussey here was a circle master. An elite one, actually. He was one of the many law-defying wizards that used their spare time to develop skills other than wizardry. This turned out to be especially well for Wizard Hussey because he was actually more resourceful than most to gain the supplies required. This gave him a lot more opportunities to hone his skills.

During this very moment, Wizard Hussey used his telekinesis to dismantle the parts of the circle. It was the reason wizards worked better than others in terms of working with circles. Their power of the Will could reach for the parts that others couldn’t with their hands. In just a few seconds, everything was dismantled to be put into just one portal bag.

Wizard Hussey brought the bag to Abel, “Here, Master Bennett.”

Abel responded with an invitation, “Feel free to visit my residence at the Potionmaster Guild whenever.”

That made everyone else pretty jealous. A direction invitation was pretty much the same as a recognition to become friends. There was no telling what their relationship would blossom into, but given how things were now, there was a door wide open for Wizard Hussey to make a good first impression.

Wizard Hussey couldn’t hide his excitement, “I’ll be sure to, Master Bennett! I’ll definitely be there. For the food, actually, no, just joking! No, actually I’ve heard that your chefs make some great dishes, dont’ they?”

That was no rumor at this point. Those law-defying wizards had all the information on Master Bennett. It was no secret how good the food was at almost all of his residence.

Church rushed into the cavern suddenly, “Where’s the sacred item of our clan?”

Wizard Hal pointed towards where the teleportation circle originally was, “We were late, Church. The mad knight had it on when he was returning to the Nation of Evil.”

Church turned to Abel, “I thought you were the one who went first, Master Bennett! How did you let the knight go?”

Wizard Hal was greatly offended, “Watch your tone, Warrior Church! Master Bennett has done far better than any other wizards here combined. You have no right speaking to a helping elf like this!”

It wasn’t just Hal this time. All the other law-defying wizards looked quite angry as well. Those law-defying wizards saw many corpses of steel puppet on their way here. They also noticed the marks of all kinds of spells being cast, which indicated that the chase after Mead was not easy.

“Bring me out of here, Frankenstein,” Abel said without responding to Church, “I’ll be off from here, wizards. I’ll see you all some other time.”

The law-defying wizards could all see how mad Abel was. Abel went to spend a bunch of potions for them, but the barbarian didn’t appreciate it and even started to scorn him.

“Goodbye, Master Bennett!”

Not knowing what to do, the law-defying wizards just bowed and let Frankenstein and Abel disappear.

“I didn’t mean this, Master Bennett! I was just....”

Just when Church was about to explain to Abel, Abel was already out of the cavern. He was left alone to be gazed at by the other law-defying wizards. He now knew that he had offended someone that he shouldn’t. He didn’t know what to do to make up for it, too. He was busy training inside the temple most of the time, so he didn’t really know how famous Master Bennett was on the central continent. It really had to do with how fast Abel was becoming a prominent figure on the central continent. There was still not enough time for a lot of the influential figures to know about his name.

Warrior Church did what he could to run out of the cavern. Still, he could see that Master Bennett was already on White Cloud’s back. To be honest, Abel wasn’t all that angry. He was just done with his job, and there really wasn’t much else to do except waiting for an apology, and that was not something he’s really keen on. He got an entire large-sized teleportation circle, and if there was anything he regretted, it’d just be that he should’ve activated his giant dragon transformation earlier. Otherwise, the souls of the eighty advanced sacred knights would’ve belonged to his statues.

Abel shook his head, “Enough this time, I guess.”

Just after saying, he saw a portal bag that was on Frankenstein’s waist.

“Where’s this bag from, Frankenstein?”

What Frankenstein told him through the soul chain was quite incredible.

“You looted that mad knight?”

Abel’s thought about looting enemies with the telekinesis spell, but he’s never considered stripping away all the belongings of a living mad knight. The difference in difficulty was just too high. The next thing he knew, Frankenstein threw a portal bag and a bunch of clothes on White Cloud’s back. Abel could see a whole set of armor. Of course, he also saw the gloves and clothes. There were even undergarments. Frankenstein literally stripped Mead naked.

By the way, just then, Mead was fully naked when he went out of the teleportation circle in the Nation of God. He was being watched by the tens of sacred knights and mad knights that were waiting for him. All he had was a knight’s shield to cover his private parts. One mad knight thought about asking about the totem, but he knew that was out of the question. Mead was embarrassed at first, but then he had this grim look on his face as he realized that he would be an embarrassment for the next few centuries.

“Agh!”

He screamed and unleashed all the energy inside of him. He activated his charge and switched on his vitality spiritual qi light ring. He didn’t ask for extra clothing from anyone else as he just got out as quickly as possible. His head was filled with thoughts about the weirded look of his comrades. He failed the mission miserably, and more miserably, all the stuff he gained over the years was robbed of him.

He lost control. He charged out of the barrier generated by the guardian wings and went straight for the Howling Castle. He just wanted to find a law-defying wizard that he could die together with. He picked Howling Castle because that’s the closest spot he could do this.

A patrolling law-defying wizard scrambled, “Has that mad knight gone mad?”

At the same time, more law-defying wizards rushed over to see Mead without anything on him. They didn’t know why he was in the state that he was, but they were not allowing any sacred knight from the Nation of God to close in as far as they were concerned.

While the other law-defying wizards were preparing their spell, Mead was intercepted when there was still a one-mile distance between him and Howling Castle. It was a defensive circle that got him. Soon later, a strong purifying spiritual light rose out, signaling that the intruder was returning to his maker.
