Chapter 502 Died Like Nothing
Fink and Barney didn’t know anything about the recipe. Actually, they didn’t even have the recipe for the “rabbit essence.” They knew very little. As true as that was, they still didn’t want to give what little information they knew to the man threatening them.
Fink said with a shaky voice, “You-you can’t run! The law enforcent wizards will be on their way!”
Wizard Jallel smiled, “You seem to have forgotten sothing, boy. Nigel is right beside , so who’s coming to save you?”
That just reminded Fink. If Wizard Nigel was already here, he must be in the sa group as these two. He also rembered sothing else. Just this morning, a huge bucket of the “rabbit essence” was transported to this shop. Whatever he did, he wasn’t going to let that go to the hands of these burglars.
After calming himself a little, Fink stood up and said resolutely, “I don’t have the recipes you want, sir, but I can demonstrate making it for you.”
“Fink!” Barney shouted to his brother.
“Shut up, you!” Wizard Jallel called out, then knocked Barney down with his power of the Will, “Sure, sure
how it’s done.”
As he took a brief look to check that Barney was alright, Fink walked towards the kitchen bench and took out a pile of at. Then, when he put it inside the water basin, he started pouring the rabbit essence solution onto it.
Everything made sense so far. Yet, sothing strange started happening. The kitchen was filled with the sll of the rabbit essence, but the rabbit essence solution started flowing down the drain.
“What are you doing?” Wizard Jallel scread as he realized what was happening. He took the water bottle away from Fink’s hand with his “telekinesis” spell, but everything inside was already gone.
“Very slippery, aren’t you?” Wizard Jallel said. With a flick of his hands, he launched a fireball and turned Fink into Ash.
Wizard Jallel walked towards Barney. Barney was still on the ground, so he ca to grab him by his hair. He used his power of the Will to infiltrate Barney’s brain. Since Barney was just an ordinary human, it would destroy his cognitive system.
It was all for just so recipe. When Wizard Jallel looked into Barney’s head, he could see everything that Barney had experienced in his life. He didn’t care about any of it. All he wanted was the recipe for the good food that he had.
His birthday–skipped. His first day at the job–skipped. The ti he had fun with his friends–Didn’t matter. When Wizard Jallel skipped to the part that Barney was cleaning up the kitchen utensils, that’s when he knew that he got what he was after.
What he saw next absolutely shocked him. A strange pentagonal circle started appearing. Its bright light covered everything up.
“AGH!” Wizard Jallel scread. At the sa ti, he unleashed mana from his hand that made Barney’s entire head explode.
“What’s wrong, Sixth?” Wizard Bunker ca over and asked. To him, it wouldn’t be weird if the two interrogation victims were screaming at the top of their lungs, but to hear his comrade scream, that was sothing that he had not expected.
“It’s fine, Fifth!” Wizard Jallel shook his head, “Soone set up a security asure inside their brains. Whoever it is, he doesn’t want to let anyone know about the recipes.”
Wizard Bunker said dreadfully, “Well, well. It looks like things are starting to get really interesting.”
When Fink and Barney died, Abel was still at Harry Castle. He was busy forging a knight’s big sword at his workshop.
Abel suddenly threw his sword away, “I’ve got to go, Master Bentham.”
Master Bentham nodded, “Sure, just leave the sword to . I can finish it for you.”
Abel quickly walked away and called through his soul chain, “Bartoli. It’s . What just happened?”
He didn’t know what happened, but Bartoli’s voice sounded sad, “Master, my contract with Fink and Barney just disappeared!”
“You an soone killed them?” Abel asked in shock. He didn’t know Fink and Barney that well, but they were both his employees. Who would do sothing like this to him? Actually, what happened to Liante City?
Abel said after thinking for a while, “Bartoli, I need you to co here right away. I’ve got sothing that I want you to do for .”
“Yes, Master!” Bartoli replied. Soon, she used her “instantaneous movent” spell and appeared right in front of Abel.
Abel instructed, “Bartoli, investigate. Rember, you can only die once now. Go look for Wizard Lorenzo. Don’t do anything risky. If sothing happens, just run away.”
“Yes, Master!’ Bartoli bowed and replied.
“Here,” Abel said, then handed Bartoli two bottles of his “full recovery potions.” Obviously, Bartoli knew what these were. She knew how valuable these potions were, and she was grateful that her master would go as far as to give her two extra lives.
As of now, Abel didn’t want to head to Liante City himself. There was a chance that soone was targeting him, so he didn’t want to do anything that would attract unwanted attention. He was not an interdiate wizard yet. The safest option for him was to stay inside his own magic tower.
He trusted that Bartoli knew what she was doing. She was a sensible person. If her thinking was in the right place, she would never run into danger without making enough preparations. Besides, unlike him, she had the “instantaneous movent” to help running away from anything.
Right now, there was sothing that Abel couldn’t get his head around. Liante City was supposed to be a pacifist city. All traces of mana would be recorded by the local authorities. Last ti, when Bartoli was trying to use her mana to clean the blood that was inside the restaurant, she was fined a lot of points by the law enforcent wizards.
