Abe the Wizard

441 Investigation

In Linate City, beams of neon light shot up the 36 magic towers through the City’s Super Grand Protection Circle, creating an intense white shield of illumination surrounding the sky.

By this point, Abel was calmly sitting on his chair, looking at this rare beauty in the sky. Bartoli was by his side, pouring juice on to his cup.

Bartoli was very happy that her master had gotten his revenge. She didn’t even know how to mention the conflict initially. And although Abel didn’t seem angry, she had spent the day looking for the Food and Beverage Alliance’s information.

Bartoli knew that Abel was a powerful professional in the Dark World, but now she also realized her harmless-looking master was also a well-known grandmaster, a prestigious wizard, and a true nobleman in the Holy Continent.

Tonight, she had a taste of Abel’s power. Even under the grand protection circle of the city, Abel had carelessly whipped out the entire Food and Beverage Alliance.

He also did it quite quickly. It had only probably taken him a few minutes before everything was finished. After the spirit guardian knight captain had come back, Abel even had time to roast 2 dishes before it went back to his monster ring.

“Bartoli, don’t worry about me today. Just say I’m training, I won’t see anyone. Tomorrow, go to the court again to report the Food and Beverage Alliance, and also demand a result from law enforcement wizard again!” Abel took another sip of the juice.

“Yes, master!”Bartoli was a little confused. The Food and Beverage Alliance had already been whipped out, so why did she still need to report? Still, she bowed and said yes anyway.

“Put a sign outside the shop saying from tomorrow the Forgotten Land will shut down. Since the Food and Beverage Alliance won’t let the Forgotten Land operate normally, I told the law enforcement wizards and the court to do something about it. In the meantime, let’s just shut it down for the safety of the staff and customers!” Said Abel with a cold smirk.

“Master, we will lose a lot of points this way!” Bartoli reminded Abel.

“We can get them anytime. Our business has always been amazing, so the customers will definitely return. This time, I need everyone to see the result of trying to overtake us!” Abel put his juice down.

Abel knew fully well how powerful the ‘Rabbit essence ‘ was, even though not many people had felt it. As long as the Forgotten Land was still in operation, people could just eat it anytime. So the true addictiveness of those rabbit essence had never come to full effect.

“Did you find out who did this?” Said elite wizard Lorenzo to a red-cloaked wizard furiously. This was the biggest attack he had ever seen since he joined the investigation department.

In the conference room, there were also Elite Wizard Nigel, Elite Wizard Allenby, and Elite Wizard Eddington. This is the biggest event Linate Caithness had ever seen.

“How was this possible? The explosion was so big, and it was filled with Fire elements. It was definitely done by a fire elemental wizard, but how come the Soul of the City couldn’t detect it? Also, why can’t the Soul of the City find out which wizard it was from the scent?” Elite Wizard Lorenzo asked in a dreaded voice.

“Mr. Lorenzo, the scent of the Fire elements in the attack were different from every single wizard in the city. Maybe it was some kind of explosives!” The red-cloaked wizard quickly explained.

“What you are saying is someone had blown tens of restaurants into pieces with explosives in just a few minutes? Has the Soul of the City investigated all the wizards outdoors at the time yet?” Wizard Lorenzo asked again.

The soul of the city could track down all the wizards through their scent as soon as they left their own protection circle and roam around in the city. This data would be kept for a while, and used for investigation when needed. This was why Linate City could remain peaceful while having so many wizards.

“It must be an intermediate wizard since only they can use ‘Move in a Flash’. Relentless ‘moves in a flash’ should have been documented by the soul of the city!” Elite Wizard Nigel agreed.

The red cloak wizard glanced at the gaze of the 4 elite wizards and followed, “I’ve gone through all the data. During the explosion, there were only 3 intermediate wizards outdoors, and none of them was even close to the area of the explosion. So they can’t be the suspects!”

“Impossible! Did someone use a scroll of town portal to create this explosion?” Elite wizard Lorenzo said with a low voice; he was extremely disappointed.

“Wait, doesn’t this seem oddly familiar to all of you?” Suddenly Elite Wizard Eddington, who had been silent all this time, interrupted.

“Wizard Eddington, you have an idea?” Elite Wizard Lorenzo quickly asked.

“Wizard Lorenzo, don’t you still remember how the magic towers in Duchy of Keyen were destroyed?” Wizard Eddington replied.

The explosion that erupted in Duchy of Keyen had immediately turned them from a first-class Duchy into a third-class Duchy. From that day, Abel had been a wanted man from the Wizard Union in The Kingdom of St Ellis. This caused a huge uproar since no human Blacksmith Master had been wanted before. Recently, this Blacksmith Master had even become a Grand Master Blacksmith.

“Wizard Eddington, are you saying Grand Master Abel is the one who did this?” Elite wizard Lorenzo asked in slight disbelief. They had had all investigated the Duchy of Keyen incident, and they all agreed that Abel was innocent back then.”

“Then, that’s up to your investigation department!” Said Elite Wizard Eddington waving his hand.

“List out all the attacked restaurants and see if there is any correlation between them?” Said Elite Wizard Lorenzo turning back to the red Cloaked intermediate wizard.

“Mr. Lorenzo, through our investigation department’s analysis, all of those restaurants and that mansion were all assets of the Food and Beverage Alliance!” The red-cloaked wizard replied with a bow. Before this meeting, he had already done a large amount of analysis with the soul of the city and gathered a large amount of data.

“Did you check if Abel had any tension with the Food and Beverage Alliance?” Asked Elite Wizard Lorenzo again.

“Mr. Lorenzo, Abel’s steward, Ms. Bartoli’s shop was splashed with blood this morning. She unleashed a firewall to clean it up. The law enforcement wizard had fined her 1000 credit points. Afterward, Ms. Bartoli reported to the law enforcement wizards that it was the Food and Beverage Alliance who disrupted her shop first. All of this is documented in the soul of the city, all Mrs can go have a look!” the red cloak wizard said after searching around in his stack of data for a while.

“What a bunch of gutsy bastards, isn’t the Food and Beverage Alliance the assets of the Kingdom of St Porter?” Wizard Lorenzo asked again.

Although the Food and Beverage Alliance was making a profit, it was not high. The Wizard Union in Linate City couldn’t just eat up all the rewards; they had to save some for the 3 great kingdoms as well. They just didn’t expect the Food and Beverage Alliance to do just a disgusting thing of trying to overtake Abel’s assets.

“Seems like that’s about it. The Food and Beverage Alliance angered Grand Master Abel, and since he didn’t like chatting with people, he just demolished the entire Food and Beverage Alliance himself or told someone to do it!” Elite Wizard Eddington nodded and analyzed.

“Any comments or further investigation?” Said Elite wizard Lorenzo, glancing at the 3 other elites.

That’s right. Every single one of the wizards on the spot knew fully well. Even if they had evidence that Abel was the man behind this, what could they do about it? Arrest him?

If they really had the guts to do this, maybe it would directly lead to a war with the dwarfs. The 3 elites knew that there could be a big chance Abel had invited some those elite wizard dwarfs to do this for him. This direct and ruthless style of attacks seemed exactly like something the dwarfs would do.
