Abe the Wizard

Prince Adolf’s face tensed up. He knew Countess Carrie’s worlds were not that simple. She was suggesting that he was using some power of the will technique.

“Sister Carrie, I’ll just talk to Master Bennett for another minute, and I’ll go!” Prince Adolf didn’t want to miss the chance to meet this Master Alchemist who could make an Elven Perfume that could increase the ability of Druids. He always wanted to meet Abel, but Abel was just too low key. He could never meet him through normal ways.

“Master Abel, I want to purchase some of your personally made blue Elven Perfume on behalf of Begro City!” Said Prince Adolf turning back to Abel in a serious tone. However, at the same time, another dragon roar filled Abel’s mind.

Abel had been attacked again by the prince’s mysterious power of the will technique, but he didn’t strike back. Instead, he pretended like nothing had happened and said, “the prestigious Prince Adolf, didn’t you know that I had already given all the right for my blue Elven Perfume to the Grand Ducal Palace? If you want to purchase some, you can negotiate with Countess Carrie.

Although Abel didn’t know too much about this mysterious power of the will technique, he could send Prince Adolf’s soul straight into critical condition, and it would get him in big trouble. Therefore it was best not to strike back, especially in Prince Adolf’s very own banquet within his very own mansion.

“Oh, right. Thank you for your warning Master Bennett!” Prince Adolf did not expect his mysterious power of the will technique to fail him. He glanced over at Countess Carrie and Derek by the side. He was not sure which one of them had blocked his attack for Master Bennett, but still, he bowed respectfully.

Under the cold gaze of Countess Carrie, Prince Adolf left Abel. After the prince had walked away, Countess Carrie said to Abel, “Bennet, soon we will have a small scale auction. We hope you can provide a few pieces for the Grand Ducal Palace. It was just a little event where both City’s Grand Ducal palace will bring out some pieces for auction to raise this banquet’s energy!”

“Little auction?” Abel had never thought that this banquet would have an event so similar to those charity auctions in his original human world. He then followed, “Who’s the receiver of the auction?”

“You, of course, since you are the one providing the pieces. Do you really think the Grand Ducal Palace wanted your little gold coins?” If Prince Adolf didn’t tell me just then, I wouldn’t ask you for auction pieces. I’ll have it prepared myself!” Countess Carrie didn’t seem to understand Abel’s intention. She knew Abel didn’t really care about gold coins normally, but why did he ask this question?

Even though Abel knew Countess Carrie had mistaken his words, he did not bother to explain. By this point, he basically knew what the intentions behind the auction were. It was for both cities to show off their power in order to increase their attractiveness.

‘Now I can take all the benefits’ Abel thought to himself as he took out 2 Lotions, 2 conditioners, 2 Elven perfumes, and 2 Colognes, and placed them on the table.

“All here, 2 bottles of everything!” Said Abel point at the 8 bottles of potion on the table.

“What are those two potions?” Countess Carrie quickly asked as she saw something new.

“That is my personally developed male-specific ‘Cologne’!” Abel explained with a smile.

Derek then carefully put away the 8 bottles of potions and said to Countess Carrie and Abel with a bow “Young Master, Lord Bennett, I’ll take these potions to the auction!”

As soon as Derek walked off, the 4 female elves who were chatting with Countess Carrie arrived by their side. One of them with blue color hair and a pair of delicate wide eyes asked: “Countess Carrie, Is this Master Bennett?”

“That’s right; I’m Bennett. Hello, who are you?” Abel replied with a gentle bow.

The blue-haired female elf suddenly called in excitement and said, “Ah! You really are Master Bennett. Can I buy some of your Lotions and Conditioners?” If Countess Carrie didn’t get in the way, maybe she would have already jumped on to Abel’s body.

“Countess Muriel, please mind your behavior!” But the moment when Countess Carrie had finished her sentence. The other 3 female elves had also begun to ask Abel for Lotions and Conditioners. The scene was a mess.

“Countess Muriel, Countess Moly, Countess Ginny, and Countess Marian, you are all nobles. Please have the dignity of a noble!” Countess Carrie repeated again.

“Countess Carrie, of course, this doesn’t concern you. I saw that you still had many bottles in your room last time!” Countess Muriel shamelessly argued back.

“That’s right. Countess Carry, I asked, and you wouldn’t even give us an extra bottle. Since Master Abel is here, I will definitely buy a few extra bottles from him.” Countess Moly called as well.

Countess Ginny and Countess Marian were also complaining that Countess Carrie didn’t give them enough Lotions and Conditioner last time, and they are running out of it.

It seemed like Countess Carrie was used to the attitude of these Countess, so she just said with a calm tone. “Does that mean I don’t have to share with you guys when I have good stuff next time?”

This was the first time Abel saw Countess Carrie interacting with other female elves. This Countess Carrie was different from the one he knew. Somehow she fitted in well with these other 4 noble female elves.

“Sorry everyone, I had already given my latest batch of Lotion and Conditioner to the Alchemy Union for sale. I don’t have any on me right now, but I will make some more when I have time. After that, you can come to the Grand Ducal Palace to get it!” Abel guessed that these Countess might not have a simple relationship with the Grand Ducal Palace, and it wouldn’t take him much time to my those potions anyway.

“Did you say you have given your Lotions and Conditioner to the Alchemy Union for sale?” Countess Marian said from the side.

“That’s right, Countess Marian!” Abel said with a nod.

“How come I never heard about this?” Said Countess Marian in slight confusion.

“Yeah. Countess Marian’s family is the main resource supplier to the Alchemy Union. How come she doesn’t know about this?” Countess Moly added in suspicion.

“Of course, they used it on themselves!” Countess Marian suddenly realized. Master Bennett’s work had been divided privately for personal use by the Alchemy Union.

Countess Carrie did not join the exciting discussion among the female elves. Instead, she turned and introduced “Bennett, here are all the members in Lawland Squad. In a few days, they will set off and find beauty grass with you!”

Abel looked around at the 4 female elves. He could tell they were all Druids, and none of them had combat qi. He asked, “Countess Carrie, don’t you have any professionals specialized in close body battles in your team?”

Upon hearing Abel’s concerns, Countess Moly stepped up and waved her fist in front of Abel as she said, “Master Bennett, what are you afraid of. We will protect you!”

Countess Moly little fists made him worry even more. Although he had never joined a squad, as a knight, he knew every team had to have a close body fighter who could turn into a shield, a patroller who could quickly step up and examine the field’s condition, and a powerful attacker responsible for the main damage.

Abel knew Countess Carrie was an extremely powerful intermediate Druid, but he did not believe any of these 5 female elves would learn any Druid’s transformation technique and turn into a wolf for close body battles.

“Don’t worry Bennett, the Lawland squad is very powerful. As long as we don’t encounter any elite soul beasts, nothing can stop us in the Double Moon Forest!” Said Countess Carrie in full confidence.

“Yes, Master Bennett, nothing can stop us from getting those beauty grass!” Said Countess Moly in an affirmative and serious tone.
