Abel brushed himself clean in the water and took out his clothes from the Kong Kong spirit portal bag. It was a breath of fresh air. Seeing its owner had already cleaned himself, Black Wind also jumped out of the water and head towards the shore shaking its butt.
âBlack Wind, NO!â but no matter how loud Abel shout, he could not stop Black Wind from shaking water off its body. All his new clothes were now wet.
âYou bastard!â Said Abel irritatedly, lightly hitting the back of Black Wind.
âWoof woof!â Black Wind did not care at all, instead, he leaned its head even closer to Abel, lightly closing its eyes comfortably allowing Abel to hit him.
Seeing his clothes were already ruined by Black Wind, Abel gave up on trying to fix it. Therefore, he grabbed a hold of the back of Black Windâs head and threw him straight back into the water in one breath.
With the laughter of Abel, The woo woo sound of Black Wind, the calming sound of water, and the sound of ocean waves from a distance, this long lost human camp was filled with a lively atmosphere once again.
The sky was getting dark, so Abel took out the Akara tent and entered it with Black Wind. This place was very safe; even the area outside of the camp could not see a single creature move.
Sitting on a chair out of ambergris wood, Abel would felt a slight impose of dragon down below. Since he had become an Elite Knight, Abel was a lot more sensitive to imposes. This kind of chair made by ambergris wood used to only give Abel a slight relaxation to his power of the will. But now, this sensation had been emphasized many times. The dragon impose on the ambergris wood was a very soft and comforting, and it worked even better with the impose of an elite Knight.
Even Black Wind, who was by the side, could see the benefit of the ambergris wood and the meditation jade. It laid its body on the floor made out of meditation Jade tiles and leaned against the bed made out of ambergris wood.
By that point, Abel was feeling very peaceful in his heart and body. A calming atmosphere spreader from the meditation Jade tile floor to the barrier dimension. Every breath he inhaled he felt like he was getting even more relaxed.
He then opened the Horadric cube, there were 2 bottles of the dark gold-colored soul potionsâ at the corner of Horadric cube. The last time he had only used one bottle of this âsoul potion,â his knowledge on magic greatly increased. He had 2 bottles here, and the weak little souls also needed these potions to nourish.
Abel took out one bottle of the âsoul potionâ. After a bit of consideration, he also took out his carving knife, multiple types of jade, the pattern scroll for the fire spell âwarmthâ, the pattern scroll for the ice spell âice bombâ, the pattern scroll for the electric spell âcharging bolt and put them all on the chair made by ambergris wood.
Abel held the âsoul potionâ on his hand; he deeply admired it as he stared at the dark gold liquid within. After 3 trials he had come to a conclusion. This soul potion was made by the soul of at least 500 creatures of hell. It was only in this world he could get so many capable yet weak souls from those creatures of hell.
He tilted his head back and poured the âsoul potionâ into his mouth. At first, he wanted to control the âsoul potionâ to nourish the weak little souls first. But once the potion had entered his mouth, it had turned into an uncontrollable gas rushing towards his brain. He was not able to control it at all.
He had learned his lesson from his past attempt of inhaling the âsoul potionâ. When he entered into a state similar to the flash of realization, he did not let his thoughts go crazy. Instead, he began to think about the basic 11 knife skills of the carving knife. A simulated Abel appeared in his mind. His hand was holding a carving knife, carving on the surface of a jade. The 11 knife skills were being executed one by one right in front of his eyes.
The state in which Abel was in seemed to be subconscious, but he felt like he was also able to control some of his actions. It was very weird. The 11 knife skills were not hard to learn at all, and Abel had mastered all of them including the direct cut, side cut, fast cut, slow cut, sharp cut, smooth cut, dance cut, soft cut, hard cut, flat cut, and reserve cut in almost no time.
Abel was confident at this point if he had a carving knife with him, he could certainly execute all 11 basic carving knife techniques perfectly.
However, every second from now on was very precious. He did not fully master the âfrozen armorâ spell last time, so the simulated Abel in his mind began to work on it again. The speed of unleashing the spell slowly increased and the spell was getting simpler.
At last, the spell of âfrozen armorâ was simplified. All he needed to do now to unleash the spell was to say âFrozen armor! and it would only take one second to be released. As the âfrozen armorâ turned into ice flakes and vanished into thin air from the body of simulated Abel, the realization state of this spell had also ended.
Abel then began to practice the 3 new spells he had learned. First, he chose the electric spell âcharging boltâ. This was the only beginner rank spell that was able to unleash a group attack. Ever since he saw the Fallen camp which looked like a sea of red made up of Fallen, he yearned for these types of group attack spells. Therefore, he picked this spell first.
The soul potion was really showing off its usefulness. Normally if Abel was to learn a new spell, it would still take him 8-10 days to learn the most basic one. However, under the influence of the âsoul potionâ in this state of realization, the simulated Abel in the mind of Abel only needed to attempt the âcharging boltâ spell around 10 times until he could execute it.
As he attempted to do the âcharging boltâ spell more and more, itâs pattern and words he needed to say to execute spell had gotten simpler. In this state of realisation, he did not know how much time had passed.
At the end, he only needed to simply say âcharging bolt!â to unleash the spell.
The time it took to unleash the âcharging boltâ spell was also 1 second. Abel realized in his state of realization, maybe it was impossible to shorten these more complicated spells such as the âfrozen armorâ and the âcharging boltâ to the 0.5 seconds of the âfire boltâ spell.
After the âcharging boltâ realization state had completed. The ephemeral effect of the âsoul potionâ in Abelâs mind had already been used up.
Afterward, Abel took out another bottle of âsoul potionâ from his Horadric cube. Just as he opened the bottle and about to pour it down his throat, Black Wind had woken up.
Seeing the dark gold colorâ soul potionâ on the hand of its owner, Black Wind felt an instinctive urge to jump towards its owner. However, he was bound by the powerful force of his soul chain, so he could only remain still, gaze locked on the âsoul potionâ with all his might.
Abel noticed the weird look on Black Windâs face, he fully understood in his heart that these âsoul potionâ could attract the attention of all beings with a soul. However, he only had one bottle and he needed it for himself, so under these circumstances, he could not give this bottle to Black Wind.
âBlack Wind, go lay back down. There will be a lot of chances in the future for you to try one.â Abel half-heartedly commanded and half-heartedly comforted Black Wine wind through the soul chain.
After Black Wind had received the message through the soul chain, he had gotten more clear-headed from his half-awake state. Although the âsoul potionâ was very attractive to it, it knew that it was its ownerâs potion, so of course he wouldnât even think about taking it. Therefore, it would retrain its desire for the âsoul potionâ and went back to where he was laying down, enjoying the pleasure brought about by the meditation Jade and ambergris wood.
Abel smiled. He understood how Black Wind was feeling through the soul chain. Although it really wanted the âsoul potionâ, it knew its owner had first priority and held back its desire for the potion. Abel was very happy because of this.
Abel drank up the last bottle of âsoul potionâ and entered the state of realization again. The simulated Abel in the mind of Abel began to test out the pattern for the ice spell âice boltâ. This spell was clearly much simpler than the âfrozen armorâ and âcharging boltâ. It only took simulated Abel around 20 times until he could execute the spell to perfection his mind.
After around 100 attempts of doing the âice boltâ spell, it was simplified. Now all he needed to do was to say âice bolt!â to unleash the spell, and its time of execution was 0.5 seconds, same as the âfire boltâ spell.
Seemed like the âice boltâ spell and the âfire boltâ spell were the simplest beginner spells.
