Abe the Wizard

Although Lister the Tormentor could not use an inner world to enchant himself like the professionals of the central continent, he was still more powerful than anything Abel had ever seen in the Dark World.

His power lay within his body, soul, his immense speed, and that Spectral Blow.

It was a nightmare to fight him in close combat.
Abel would not have stood a chance without the angel avatar.

The angel avatar stepped back and used a Full Recovery Potion, but every Spectral Blow was just as effective as the ones before.

Abel focused all his consciousness in the Druid Soul of his angel avatar.
The fight was no longer looking as bright with a wall closing in behind him.
With such rapid attacks coming from Lister the Tormentor, it was very hard for the angel avatar to change direction.

He needed space to keep falling back, or else he would be taking all the force from Lister’s attacks.
Once his defense was broken, he would be killed in an instant!

Alternate solutions sped through his mind.
With his current team’s power, they could not deal enough damage to kill Lister the Tormentor in time.

Suddenly, he thought of his rarely used Druid Summon, the Thorn Spirit! He quickly Summoned it from the Monster Ring.

The most powerful thing about it was its ability to give every member of a team the power to rebound close-range attacks on them!

It was totally useless against spells, and it was not as powerful as the Thorn Aura of the holy knights.
If a Thorn Aura could have been shared, Abel might not even have kept the Thorn Spirit around.

There was a flash of white light, all of his Summons glowing as the Thorn Spirit appeared.
That included the angel avatar, as glowing thorns appeared on its body.

When Lister the Tormentor struck again with its claws, the angel avatar blocked and stepped back again.

But this time, Lister the Tormentor shook and it also stepped back!

It was the first time it had ever stepped back in this fight, which gave the angel avatar more room again.

The angel avatar stepped forward at immense speed and met Lister the Tormentor at the same spot.

As they kept striking one another, it was hard to tell who was more powerful.
But Abel’s team kept firing, and the health of Lister the Tormentor began to drop.

In another ghostly flash, Lister the Tormentor unleashed another Spectral Blow, and the angel avatar was driven back four steps, with blood gushing out of its mouth.

But due to the sixfold rebound effect of the Angel Shield, Lister the Tormentor was sent flying backward like a spear, and blood gushing from his mouth as well!

Purple light flashed on the angel avatar and the Full Recovery Potion took effect.
The avatar quickly followed up with a dash ahead, and it was no longer being driven back to the wall.

A smile appeared on Abel’s face.
He had finally found a way to defeat Lister the Tormentor!

More impacts followed.
The Spectral Blow he was worried about the most had become Lister the Tormentor’s own nightmare.

Since Lister the Tormentor did not have a Full Recovery Potion, victory was tipping toward Abel!

His angel avatar did not even need to attack, all he needed was a perfect defense each time, and Lister the Tormentor would be injured by his own power.

After ten whole hours, Lister the Tormentor began to slow down.
The angel avatar finally landed a strike on his head.

Lister the Tormentor shook angrily and let out a roar.
It sounded like he was calling for his owner in outraged frustration.

The angel avatar quickly disappeared with Black Wind and BANG! Lister the Tormentor blasted himself to pieces.

Luckily Black Wind moved far enough, and the angel avatar did not make contact with the blast.
Considering how much health Lister the Tormentor had, anything within that range would be dead!

The angel avatar rushed back into Abel’s body, and Black Wind returned to the Monster Ring.
Abel didn’t want to be distracted while Lister the Tormentor’s blood was entering him.

Soon, blood began to separate from the flesh of Lister the Tormentor, and Abel could clearly sense that it was much thicker than the ones that had come before.

Indeed, it felt like a waterfall when it entered him!

The energy it brought was almost as much as the previous four Baal servants combined!

Abel felt his heart lift.
Was he finally going to become a God Rank?

But he soon realized how much energy was needed to become Rank 36.
The energy was only slowly filling up his Rank 35 Wizard Patterns!

After thirty seconds, his Rank 35 Wizard Patterns were brought to the brink of fulfillment.
It did not cause a level-up.

It was a pity, but he soon remembered how different the Dark World was compared to the Central Continent.

Even if he successfully became a God Rank, it would be useless without an inner world!

Still, he felt much more powerful.
Before these battles he was only Rank 32, and now he was Rank 35!

Such speedy leveling up almost made him forget how much trouble he had been in with Lister the Tormentor.
In fact he was a little irritated that no more Hell bosses were created.

“Hahaha!” The mad laugh emerged again, and the half-transparent Diablo disappeared from the platform.

As soon as it disappeared, Abel sensed a passage open up behind him.

The door had been hidden before, or else Abel would have noticed it long ago since it was glowing a dim red.

Abel quickly headed towards the door, but he immediately sensed immense evil lurking within along with waves of weeping sounds.

His intuition was warning him to stay back.

He trusted his intuition and knew his chance of surviving would be low if he continued.

A frown appeared on his face.
Was Baal behind that door?

Abel could get a sense of Baal’s power by thinking about its servant.
Abel knew it was also a possessor of a World Stone piece, so it was much scarier than fighting creatures who only used instincts.

It would be a horrifying battle.

At first Abel was planning to keep going, but he couldn’t help but hesitate after sensing the horror awaiting him.

He pondered his situation, and realized he might become Rank 36 with just a bit more training.
He would be much more confident in his ability then!

Stopping there, Abel did not enter the red door.
Instead he gazed deeply and took out a Scroll of Town Portal.

“Next time I’ll kill Baal!” he promised himself.

By the time he returned to the Golden Castle, it was night time.
He had been training ruthlessly for the last two years.

He unleashed his Power of the Will from the training room to see if it could reach the balcony of the Golden Castle.

To his surprise, the growth he had was jaw-dropping.

The last time he tested himself, he only had a Power of the Will with a range of 4000 meters without using the Crown of the Goddess of the Hunt.
He now had a Power of the Will range of 7000 meters, which would be 14,000 meters with the Hunting Crown!

At the same time, he felt like his Territory had undergone a huge change as well.

He Flashed up and appeared on the Golden Castle platform.

He unleashed his three Territories.
Every inch of land within 14,000 meters was in his grasp.

Of course, the Power of Law he controlled within that range was not that much, but it still meant he had an attack range of fourteen kilometers!

It was a pity that his Territories didn’t level up with his Wizard Patterns, which was why they were so weak in comparison.

But still, since he was now out of the Dark World’s suppression, his Territories would begin to grow.
They just needed some time, since the growth he had undergone was too great!
