Abe the Wizard

Abel unleashed his dragon energy. He trusted Gold Dragon Kemble, so he no longer needed to hide.

He, too, had a legendary summon, so he should be able to escape those legendary sea monsters even if they decided to make a move on him.

After a few more hours of flying, the Fire Tooth Battle Fort finally saw the shoreline of the Holy kingdom.

There was no one on guard.

That made sense since they had the guardian wings, and there were no resources to protect around the shore like the front line.

Abel looked around and finally landed on the edge of the shore.

He sensed the Guardian Wing’s protection shield right in front of him.

Maybe this place would be fully protected during high tides.

Abel had a strange feeling as he walked along the shore. The protection shield in front of him felt oddly friendly.

When he examined the origin of that feeling, he realized it was from the Crystal angel statue between his eyes.

After he confirmed there was no danger, he slowly reached his hand towards the protection shield.

He was extremely careful, and his full recovery potions were ready as soon as he got hurt.

According to the WIzard Union, the Guardian Wings’s protection shield would burn anyone who was not the follower of the Demon from Beyond and turn them into Holy energy for the Guardian Wings.

However, as Abel’s finger finally made contact with the shield, he did not feel any pain and got attacked.

Instead, energy began to rush into his crystal angel statue at an immense rate. It was al, ost like a roaring river.

A white light began to flash crazily from the crystal angel statue.

Abel felt his heart twitch. He was completely caught off guard. He was expecting a smooth process and only let his holy knight summons out once he was in, but instead, he had no idea what was going on.

His first thought was to pull his finger out, but to his surprise, it was glued to the shield.

He quickly ignited his world stone. It was just as hopeless; the only thing he gained was realizing the energy rushing in was actually pure faith.

His finger was stuck like a bug stuck to a spider web. All the struggle was hopeless.

“Damn it!” Abel didn’t want to get stuck here forever. He would be dead once someone noticed him.

He roared and ignited the dragon transformation. He was no longer afraid of attracting sea monsters, so he could use his most powerful move.

His body began to expand and turned into a 1200 years old giant dragon with the power nearing a legendary.

However, his claw remained stuck at the protection shield.

Still, the giant dragon energy he unleashed shocked Gold Dragon Kemble from afar.

“Blue dragon Abel was hiding his power. He is actually a mature dragon!” He laughed as he took a sip of rum.

He sensed that Abel was viciously twitching around like he was fighting some enemies, but since he did not sense the power of another figure, Abel must have just been playing around.

“What a big child!” Gold Dragon Kemble shook his head with a smile.

As long as Abel was safe, he would let him be.

Abel helplessly looked at his left hand and finally returned to his human form.

What was actually happening?

He reached his power of the will into his crystal angel statue and noticed a big storm within it. But instead of raindrops, it was raining in pure faith.

At first, there was still some time until the dark gold energy in the Crystal Angel Statue was fully Dark Gold, but as pure faith kept rushing in, even the floor was starting to turn dark gold.

In reality, this rate of progress might take Abel hundreds of years to accumulate, even with his tens of thousands of followers.

Abel paused for a moment. He was not getting hurt after all, and it seems like his crystal angel statue wanted to move forward. So, he calmed himself down and let Frankenstein out as a last resort.

The Guardian wing’s protection shield was formed by the immense faith generated from the Holy kingdom’s followers. It was a super spell cast by the demon from beyond, and it was formed thousands of years ago.

This not only protected the Demon from beyond, but it also protected his followers.

The protected followers would then generate faith for the protection shield. It was a self-sufficient cycle, and over time, it no longer needed the Guardian Wings to give out its own energy.

Although the Wizard Union had set up the Howling Castle to drain the power of this protection shield, its scale was still far beyond what the Wizard Union could manage by attacking it on one side only.

Abel was frightened by the amount of faith rushing into him, but in reality, it was like a speck of dust for the guardian in the grand scheme of things.

Since Abel’s left hand was glued, he couldn’t even sit down to have a rest.

Just like that, he welled for a day, and his crystal angel statue was fully dark gold.

Suddenly, he sensed that his crystal angel statue wanted to merge with his main soul. Abel was stunned; he wouldn’t let something like that happen.

He still needed to make his way around the Central Continent. If his soul actually merged with the crystal angel statue, the Wizard Union might think of him as a men of the Holy Kingdom and make a move on him. He just couldn’t afford to let anyone notice Izual’s energy within him.

After all, there was nothing safer than being a grandmaster alchemist.

But at the same time, he sensed that there was nothing he could do other than chopping his hand off if he wanted to leave.

It seemed like the Guardian wings protection shield was forcing his soul to merge.

If that was the case, then Abel had no choice. Not with his main soul, but his druid soul.

As long as he kept his main soul pure, the druid soul was much easier to hide.

He forcefully turned the merging to his druid soul, and strange energy charged into it from the crystal angel statue.

All of a sudden, he sensed his druid soul strengthened.

Abel could strengthen a soul with his soul potions, but he could never use a soul potion on himself, and it could not be used continuously.

That strange energy, on the other hand, was strengthening his druid soul at an impossible rate.

In just 10 minutes, his druid soul was even more powerful than his main soul.

Luckily his druid soul had no consciousness, so it could not take over by itself.

It could only do so when Abel’s main soul had given a signal.

Afterward, the crystal angel statue flew out from his forehead and entered his druid soul.

It was almost like the sole purpose of his druid soul after strengthening was for the crystal angel statue to enter.

Since the invisible energy within the druid soul was created by the combination of death qi and natural energy, it was already very high in the attribute.

Therefore, it remained unaffected despite the large amounts of pure white energy that entered along with the Crystal Angel statue.

Abel couldn’t help but fixed his attention on his druid soul.

In reality, this was actually a necessary step in the growth of the Crystal Angel statue. If it did not take in large amounts of faith from the guardian wings or Abel could not break through in time, he might not even achieve this state in the next ten thousand years.

On top of that, if the crystal angel statue merged with his main soul, he would no longer be human; he would be an angel.

The crystal angel statue was formed by the soul of Angel Tyrael. In its crystallized state, it had the power to resurrect people.

However, Angel Tyrael’s consciousness had faded long ago, and it was now a part of Abel.

Still, the power of resurrection remained.

It might have sounded like Abel got a great deal by maintaining his human body, but being an angel was actually far superior even compared to a dragon.

Angels existed in the form of pure energy, which was the ultimate goal of all professionals to achieve eternal living.

Even a legendary could only exist partly as a form of energy. They still had miles to go compared to an angel.
