Abe the Wizard Chapter 1419

Chapter 1419: Negotiations

Translated by Jim

Abel did not skip his nightly training even after a day of dealing with the dwarves, but he did not complain.

He had been close to the dwarves ever since he was young, so of course he would not stand by and tolerate what the Wizard Union had done. Even after the dwarves pledged allegiance to him, he did not demand that they do anything.

The most useful thing those dwarves could do was provide the Mountain G.o.d with Faith. When it came to smithing, they were still nothing compared to the thirty thousand blacksmiths in Doff’s kingdom!

Of course, they also helped out the dragons a lot in exchange for their protection.

——

After everything was set, Abel returned from seclusion. Considering how hard he had worked during the past year, was only a hair away from being a Rank 32 Half-G.o.d.

It was extremely fast, and was only possible because the Intelligence Fruit helped the laws in his Wizard Pattern grow.

Truly, those things had been treasures for the ancients!

It did not lessen training benefits like normal potions did, but instead allowed Abel to absorb his magical laws even faster.

Abel might have seemed only twenty-four years old, but he had actually gone through more than a century of training in the Dark World.

Still, age meant nothing to him as a Half-G.o.d. If he wasn’t fighting for time before the Demon from Beyond’s resurrection, he would not have trained as crazily as this!

Who knew, a genius like him had actually gone through four times as much battle as others his age, and he had a whole other world of resources as support!

=========

One day, Abel got a message from his Spirit Connection Circle. It was the G.o.d Alliance inviting him to a gathering.

The invitation letter was sent by the Moon G.o.ddess, and sounded very grateful. They let Abel decide the time, and they would only proceed if Abel was free.

Abel thought for a moment and connected to the Spirit Connection Circle, accepting the invitation.

He was free at that moment, so he waited patiently.

After a minute, the other five G.o.ds appeared within his Spirit Connection Circle.

“Headmaster Abel, congratulations about the dwarves!” The Moon G.o.ddess was the first one to smile.

“Moon G.o.ddess, I’m just protecting them!” Abel smiled back and bowed politely to the G.o.ds.

Ever since the Mountain G.o.d had started gathering followers, he knew just how powerful the G.o.d of a big race must be.

There were eighty-five million dwarves wors.h.i.+ping him, and the benefits he had gained were clear in just a short period of time.

The Moon G.o.ddess, on the other hand, had had the entire elven race under her for thousands of years. Although there were more dwarves around than elves, the Faith she received shouldn’t be any weaker.

With that in mind, he wondered just how much Faith the Moon G.o.ddess had acc.u.mulated, even if she had to pay a tax to the Wizard Union.

Abel began to look at those established G.o.ds in a new light. They might look weak, but they all had secret weapons!

“Headmaster Abel, I heard you saved four G.o.ds from the Wizard Union and resurrected them. Is that true?” the Water G.o.ddess couldn’t help but ask.

It was a question these G.o.ds dearly wanted to know, but things had been just way too heated before. They had waited until it was clear that the Wizard Union was no longer going for the dwarves.

“Yes, the G.o.d Rank wizards in the Wizard Union were trying to make a move on me, so I struck them first and took those four holy bodies!” Abel smiled.

Although the Wizard Union tried to cover up that event, the news still managed to get out. There was no need for Abel to hide it any more.

“Headmaster Abel, if you are the one who saved and resurrected them, they should show you some face, right?” The Water G.o.ddess’ eyes began to sparkle with excitement.

“Water G.o.ddess, just speak if you have any requests. I still have some contacts with those G.o.ds!” Abel replied a bit awkwardly.

“So it’s like this. The Central Continent has only had six G.o.ds ever since the Mountain G.o.d fell and Doff, the G.o.d of War, took his place, but now there are four more G.o.ds.”We know the G.o.ddess of the Hunt, the Ice G.o.d, the G.o.d of Black Fog, and the Mountain G.o.d all have their own Kingdoms and faithful grounds, so this broke the dynamic the G.o.d Alliance initially had in the central continent. I was just wondering if they could maybe sign a contract with us, declaring that they would not expand their territories into ours!” the Water G.o.ddess asked humbly.

G.o.ds in this world had found a way to make peace with each other, but with four extra G.o.ds of Battle G.o.ds, no one could guarantee they would not attack out of greed.

Therefore, the G.o.d Alliance had to negotiate with Abel.

Abel couldn’t help but turn to the Moon G.o.ddess, who had not said anything.

Out of the five G.o.ds, the Moon G.o.ddess was the only one not worried. That was first because she and the elves were very close to Abel. Second, the elves were very isolated, so it was basically impossible for the other G.o.ds to interfere with.

“I can contact those G.o.ds, but I can’t guarantee if they will sign the contract or not!” Abel shook his head.

Although he had no intention of letting those G.o.ds expand their territories, making it too easy was basically disclosing that those G.o.ds were under his control.

“Headmaster Abel, please ask anything of us, we will try to meet your request as long as you can help us!” the G.o.d of Death asked solemnly.

Unlike the four new G.o.ds, these five G.o.ds could not expand their territories because of the Wizard Union. In fact, they did not even have the guts to expand their followers beyond their territories.

As for the four new G.o.ds, they had Abel on their side, which had created a force even the Wizard Union could not do anything about!

Although these five G.o.ds speculated that the four new G.o.ds were Summons like Abel’s other G.o.d Rank Summons, it was still unbelievable that G.o.ds would do something like this.

Those four new G.o.ds were not Thief G.o.d Milton. They were powerful G.o.ds skilled in fighting. There was no way they would serve under a Half-G.o.d like Abel!

“Everyone, if you are worried about them, why don’t you just invite them to join the G.o.d Alliance?” Abel smiled.

A peace treaty was included in the G.o.d Alliance contract, so it would do the trick just as well!

“Headmaster Abel, the G.o.d Alliance is only open to recognized G.o.ds. If it was not, the Wizard Union might target us!” All the G.o.ds other than the Moon G.o.ddess rejected the idea at the same time.

Although they couldn’t promise those G.o.ds were Abel’s Summons, there was still a chance it was true.

If that came true, almost half of the G.o.ds in the G.o.d Alliance would be serving under Abel. Then, it would no longer be a democracy, and everything would be under Abel’s command.

The Moon G.o.ddess smiled. She had already guessed that Abel could resurrect G.o.d Ranks long ago, so making those four G.o.ds his Summons was also not impossible.

Still, letting them join would make the G.o.d Alliance lose its purpose.

“Ok, I understand. I will let them know!” Abel nodded rea.s.suringly.

——

What came after was the resources exchange, but everyone was distracted. The most important event had been dealt with, and the gathering soon ended.

Afterwards, Abel did not contact his G.o.ds. They were all busy reinforcing their bodies and he had no intention of expanding his territory.

But unlike before, those G.o.ds were not working by themselves anymore. Including Doff, they were all sharing resources and knowledge with each other, which was even more efficient than the G.o.d Alliance’s model.

Still, each G.o.d was keeping their Kingdom and Faith to themselves, but Abel was not worried.

Each G.o.d had the knowledge needed to be self-sufficient. Even if they were in danger, the other G.o.ds would be able to come for support.

Even if Abel didn’t send out his G.o.d Rank Summons, those G.o.ds would be able to support one another. That was what the Teleportation Circle in their Kingdoms were for.

Furthermore, Battle G.o.ds could leave their Kingdom to fight! This meant the safety of the five faithful grounds was also guaranteed.

——

Meanwhile, among the dwarves…

Something worth celebrating had finally arrived after months of tension, the death of King Dunba, the invasion of the Wizard Union, and finally becoming a race under Abel.

It was the day the new Dwarf-King officially took his throne, and the entire Furnace Fort was decorated early in morning.

It was the first big event since the dwarves had left the Wizard Union, and all the dwarves were getting excited.

However, above the Dwarves’ royal palace. Wizard Fara and a few law-defying wizard dwarves were looking tense.

He didn’t know if any visitors would be arriving. If none did, it would be a huge embarra.s.sment for their new King.

After all, they had embarra.s.sed the Wizard Union by pledging allegiance to Abel. If Abel wasn’t so powerful, the Wizard Union might have made a move on them long ago.

They have been sending out invitation letters for the last few months, but they had no idea who would eventually show up.

A wizard dwarf flashed in and called out, “Reporting! The Dragons’ Gold Dragon Kemble is here!”

“Quick, welcome him!” Wizard Fara quickly replied.

“Reporting! The elves’ Senior Druid Lucia is here representing the Saint!” Another wizard dwarf called.

Soon, more and more guests began to arrive. The elves’ sent two Senior Druids, the Barbarians sent two Mad Warriors, and the Winter Hoof Kingdom sent two Archpriests.
