Chapter 1153: Cause

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Abel brought a few more hell creatures to be test with Knight Wale and Knight Bruce. The result ended up being the same. He thought that Knight Wale would be flying in the air and overwhelm the incoming hell creatures with his powerful presence, sweeping through the entire field with his attack beams. That turned out to be nothing more than wishful thinking.

Abel brought Knight Wale and Knight Bruce back to the Rogue’s Encampment. He was letting the two sacred knights stand in front of him. This was the Rogue’s Encampment. This was where he possessed some of the abilities that a divine spirit would have. He could clearly sense everything intricate that was going on with Knight Wale’s body. He was comparing it to Knight Bruce’s to see if there was anything wrong happening.

As a matter of fact, there was really no point in doing this kind of observation. Knight Wale’s body composition was pretty much fundamentally different from Knight Bruce’s. Knight Wale’s body was already converted into an energy form. All the cells were already transformed by the terrifying divine force. However, this was not helpful to explain why Knight Wale was not fighting as competently as when he was alive and on the central continent.

However, through the inspection that Abel was doing this time, he seemed to have understood what was powerful about the legendary class holders. For wizards, for example, the soul and flesh would always remain at a regular level as long as they were storing up energy. When they were promoted into law-defying wizards, the soul would evolve to the point that it could contain the power of the Rule.

As the law-defying wizards continued to rank up, the soul would become more energized, and the power of the Rule that it could contain would also become more powerful. Once the legendary rank was hit, the energy would change the bodies of the legendary wizard such that the flesh was no longer a weakness. Once transformed into an energy form, the body would also gain the ability to fly.

While Abel didn’t learn the reasons why Knight Wale was growing weaker, he seemed to become aware of a safe path to become a legendary figure. He’s read some of it from his heritage items, but all that knowledge was nothing in comparison to him observing a legendary figure that was moving right in front of him.

“What could it be?”

Abel couldn’t discuss this with anyone else, so he could only find the answer for himself. Very quickly, he came up with a way to come across that, and that was by using his power of the Will to fully gain control over Knight Wale’s soul. He could feel everything that Knight Wale was feeling. He’s often done this with the Beamon giant beast Doff. With this method, he could always replace Doff to take care of those barbarian worshippers.

Abel connected his power of the Will to Knight Wale. Knight Wale didn’t feel any necessity to resist, so it fully switched on its soul and brought out the right to gain control. This was something impossible for any legendary figures to do, but Knight Wale was Abel’s creation. Abel had total control over its soul, such that it was literally “Abel’s wish was its command.” Not even that. What Abel wanted was literally what it was driven to do.

Abel noticed something when he was gaining control over Knight Wale’s spirit. He was feeling like the entire environment was a chain that was crushing him over. He could really start to sense the among of terrifying energy that was within the legendary sacred knight. Because of this energy, he was feeling ever more in pain than before. He was really starting to understand why the legendary knight Wale could have such an average performance.

It had to do with how things worked inside the dark world. The more powerful one was, the more that suppression would take place.

“What a shame!” Abel thought to himself.

He always wished that his fighting capability as a legendary sacred knight would always reinforce his fighting capability inside the dark world. If things turned out to be like this, he might as well resurrect Wizard Luce’s “resurrection” spell. Compared to the sacred knights, it was already enough that there was one in the team. Knight Bruce had already gained all the sacred knight techniques there were. Instead of having another unit that could do the exact same thing, Abel was definitely more leaning towards adding another law-defying wizard in. He knew that the sacred knights’ melee ability would require something else in order to defend against spells.

Still, he wasn’t going to just let Knight Wale do nothing, now that he’s already resurrected it. With that in mind, Abel changed a piece of armor for Knight Wale and placed a “resolve” armor onto it. The attacking power of the armor was immediately enhanced. He shook his hand when he saw the “spirit sword” in Wale’s hand. He didn’t expect the spiritual qi light ring in Wale’s hands to do much, given how sufficient Knight Bruce’s was already.

What Abel needed was for Knight Wale to possess enough attack power. As long as he was always paying attention to Knight Wale’s target, he just had to be careful that the enemy didn’t kill him instantly with some sort of counterattack.

With that in mind, Abel spent 27 pieces of the 25# ful rune to make one piece of the 28# lo rune. He wanted to create a powerful rune of “remorse.”

Remorse

5 hole sword

5# eth + 3# tir +28# lo +23# mal + 8# ral

35% chance of unleashing a level 15 poison fang when target is hit

40% increase attack speed

Damage +400

Ignore target defense

+5-30 fire damage

-25% enemy poison resistance

20% for a double damage hit

Prevent monster to self-heal

+2 mana for every monster killed

+15 life for every monster killed

This was a very terrifying piece of weapon. Although Abel already spent too many runes for it, this was about the best sword that he could’ve created given the number of runes that he had now. This, combined with Knight Wale’s own attacking capability, would turn out to be something that no one was willing to deal with.

In the following ten days, Abel brought his combat team to join Knight Wale in his new equipment. The speed at which the hell creatures were exterminated had been greatly elevated. He was very satisfied with this. Although it was still much slower in contrast to when there was a law-defying wizard included, the hell creatures could still be killed quickly enough that the team would remain flexible.

As for reviving the law-defying wizards, they would wait for a few months for the bone card to repair itself. They would resurrect Wizard Luce so he could be inside the team.

It was still the morning of the second day when Abel turned from the dark world back into his golden castle. He didn’t go to have his breakfast right away.

He spoke to the circle spirit, “Switch on all the circles within the master’s building!”

The circle spirit switched on the circles after the master’s building, “Yes, Master!”

The hidden circle, defensive circle, seclusion circle were all switched on. They were separated completely from the master’s building. Abel was not confident with that at all. After doing multiple scans with his power of the Will, he was only starting to feel a bit better after knowing the effects of these circles. If he was going to let anyone else know what he was going to do next, there was going to be a lot of trouble.

Abel ordered Knight Wale inside his portal beast ring, “Conceal your presence, Wale.”

Following that, he took out Knight Wale inside his training room. When Knight Wale was let out, Abel was shocked to see that the legendary sacred knight’s feet were not on the ground. They were just 20 centimeters above the ground and floating in midair.

Abel was sure that Knight Wale was getting a lot weaker, “I knew it had to do with the dark world!”

Knight Wale was just standing in the air. It was almost like something real was beneath. The legendary presence was enough to demonstrate how terrifying its ability was even as it was withdrawing all its presence. It could even be said that Knight Wale was a completely different sacred knight to when he was back on the central continent. If he was revealing his legendary presence here, then none of the circles here would be enough to hide his presence. Only divine power could do it at that point.

This was why legendary figures were always so careful when they were fighting on the frontline. Unless they were flying, they’d often had to cover their entire bodies up as they were traveling on the ground. Of course, most would be too proud to do that.

Right now, Knight Wale was just standing perfectly still on the ground. He was fine to conceal his own presence completely. Abel didn’t go ahead to get Knight Wale back immediately. He was stretching his power of the Will so that it was going all over towards Knight Wale’s soul. He wanted Knight Wale to be able to unleash the same presence that he was feeling so uncomfortable with as when he was back inside the Rogue’s Encampment. While strength such as Knight Wale’s would be suppressed over inside the Rogue’s Encampment, the central continent was a place that he’d be perfectly able to do that.

Abel was not going to let go of any chance to better learn about his legendary class holder. Once again, he received the right to control Knight Wale’s soul. He was very quickly sensing the difference in the environment. Here on the central continent, there seemed to be a strange floating force that was in the air that was making it very easy for him to stay afloat. He could easily feel the terrifying energy that his body was containing. He could feel like he could break through the walls within one punch.

The reason why legendary figures were called that was quite simple. They were blessed by the world itself, and they were crafted by fate to become legends. Abel was just like that. Every time he took a breath, he could feel the energy flowing from outside into him. He wasn’t a sacred knight himself, of course, so that would definitely reduce the result of his experience. Still, he could still feel the origins of the power that Knight Wale was sensing. The power was coming right beside Knight Wale, and it was really born out of an indescribable sense of fanaticism that was growing out of his own soul.

That was only when Abel noticed that Knight Wale thought of him as a divine spirit. It would make sense in a way, as sacred knights would only exert their full potential when they had a being that they could devote themselves to. Still, Abel thought that it was strange that a piece of him was worshipping him. He let out a few breaths to let go of those unpleasant feelings. He was trying to shake off the feeling of discomfort as the legendary bodies were turning to the bodies of the law-defying wizards.

Abel was starting to realize something. If he could get the corpse of a legendary wizard to come back to life, he would’ve lost the sensation required for himself to reach the legendary wizard rank. He wasn’t sure about that, of course, and he wasn’t going to give too much thought into that.

After placing Knight Wale back into his portal beast ring, Abel decided that he wouldn’t want Knight Wale to stay too long on the central continent. It was just too dangerous to do that. He’s already got “remorse” and “resolve” rune inside Knight Wale, and he wasn’t really going to use those unless they were for back-ups inside a fight. It would go like this: if he was to face a danger that he couldn’t possibly resist, he would just keep a legendary sacred knight with dark world equipment so that he wouldn’t have to face this.

Druid Gunter was just walking out of the alchemy room. Normally, all these important cleaning works were all meant that Abel’s followers could do that on his own. He was just walking out of the alchemy room, and he could see that Druid Poly was just holding a potion with a very sunny smile on her face. He got really confused when he noticed that it was a bottle of the golden quality “natural breathing.”

He went forward and asked, “Where did that come from, Druid Poly?”

It should be a reward from Grandmaster Bennett. Perhaps it had to do with how busy these big druids were working in the last two days.

Druid Poly smiled and replied, “Didn’t you know? All the monthly tributes from now on will be golden quality!”

“What?” Druid Gunter became very sad because of it. He had already received his monthly share by now. Still, he was very glad about how he was going to receive a staple supply of the golden quality potions in the future.

He became more certain that he must increase the speed of the training. Now that he was using the training materials of the big druids, he should be stuck at rank 21. He was already much slower than Grandmaster Bennett.
