"Elite Wizard Lorenzo is here!" Steward Edwon announced loudly. His voice was louder than ever.
Abel quickly greeted Wizard Moreton and quickly walked towards the door. At that moment, Wizard Lorenzo walked in with 3 intermediate wizards.
"Guru Abel, I'm the first one here!" Said Wizard Lorenzo with a big laugh to Abel. However, when he saw there were already 3 wizards in the hall, he couldn't help but laugh again, "So you're not the first. Who are you?"
"Wizard Lorenzo, this is my teacher, Wizard Moreton. These are my teacher's friends, Wizard Yveline and Wizard Murphy!" Abel introduced.
"Wizard Moreton, nice to meet you. You've raised a human genius!" Said Wizard Lorenzo with a wizard bow to Wizard Moreton.
"Mr. Lorenzo, you're too kind. It's all because of Abel's hard work!" Said Wizard Moreton with a wizard bow.
"These are my useless disciples. I'll be happy if they can be half as good as Guru Abel!" Said Wizard Lorenzo as he turned around and introduced the 3 intermediate wizards behind him.
There was a reason why Wizard Lorenzo brought his disciple here. Normally, he would bring a female partner to a banquet like this. However, Abel was a Grandmaster Blacksmith and a genius wizard. There was no way he would let this opportunity to get close to him go to waste.
Only by bringing his closest disciples could he maximize the benefits. Most of the time, a wizard's disciple was closer than a wizard's partner or children. Normal people could not live in a wizard's magic tower. Therefore, unless a wizard's partner or children were also wizards, they would not be able to spend a lot of time with their partner or children.
Most importantly, a wizard's life span was limited. Even a normal person's partner could not escape the ravages of time. Only a wizard's disciple could live with them. Every disciple was like a wizard's child.
It was because of this relationship that Wizard Lorenzo had brought his 3 intermediate wizard disciples to the banquet. If it wasn't for the rule of the banquet, which stated that each guest could only bring 3 companions, he would've brought even more disciples.
"Elite Wizard Nigel, Elite Wizard Allenby, and Elite Wizard Edwon are here!" Steward Edwon's voice emerged from the door.
Abel couldn't help but frown. He remembered that magic staff mission. He was sure that Wizard Lorenzo was not the one who posted it. He had communicated with Wizard Lorenzo many times before, so he owed Wizard Lorenzo a favor. As long as Wizard Lorenzo asked for it, he would not reject him.
Therefore, the magic staff mission could only be issued by one of the 3 elite wizards. Abel was very dissatisfied with this kind of petty behavior, but now was not the time to think about this. He still had to be careful on the surface.
Abel bowed to the 3 elite wizards, "It's my honor to have all of you here at my banquet!"
"Guru Abel, sorry to disturb you. As long as you don't think we are bad guests!" Said Wizard Allenby with a big smile on his face.
The more polite Abel was, the more distant he was. The 3 elite wizards knew it was not good to come without notice, but they had just heard that the Wizard Union of St Ellis had canceled the bounty on Abel. If they didn't come now, it would be even more difficult to talk to him in the future.
Since the 3 elite wizards were not invited, they did not bring any companions. Of course, they were not qualified to bring any companions. Only guests with invitations had the right to bring companions.
"Young master Bernie from the Goff family is here!" Steward Edwon announced again.
"Mr. Wizards, please take a seat. I'll go greet them!" Abel bowed and said apologetically.
"You are the host today. You must be very busy!" Said Wizard Allenby as the 3 elite wizards bowed at the same time.
"Guru Abel, I purposely pushed away a few big deals to come here, but you said you had to let me eat to my heart's content!" Bernie walked towards Abel with a smile on his face.
Abel also bent down and hugged Bernie. He then smiled and said, "There's enough food and wine. As long as you can eat and drink, you can drink!"
Bernie pointed at the 6 Boughton Knight captains behind him and said, "As soon as these guys heard you were here to eat and drink, they didn't want to leave a single one behind. Don't blame me, blame them!"
"Welcome, you guys. It's my fault. I should've sent you guys an invitation too!" Abel laughed and crossed arms with the 6 Boughton brothers.
"Guru Abel, we just want to drink some master wine. Young master Bernie never lets us drink enough!" The eldest Boughton brother said with a silly smile.
"I'll make you guys eat until you're broke sooner or later!" Bernie pointed at the 6 Boughton brothers and said speechlessly.
Wizard Nigel, Wizard Allenby, Wizard Eddington, and Wizard Lorenzo stood aside and saw how close Abel was with the Goff family. They were very surprised. Even if Abel was a Grandmaster Blacksmith, it was still very hard for him to have such a deep friendship with the stubborn dwarfs.
Dwarfs' friendship was very precious. Once the dwarfs acknowledged their friendship, they would support them with all their might and become the most powerful pillar behind them.
The Goff family was the most special family among the dwarfs. Their powerful economic power and connections made them much more powerful than the other 2 big families of the dwarfs. They were only second to the dwarfs' royal family.
The 4 elite wizards were very jealous of this friendship. This was real wealth. They could rely on each other for the rest of their lives.
"Guru Abel, where's the food? Where's the wine? " Bernie looked around and realized the food had not been served yet. There were only some fruits on the long table in the middle. It looked like a buffet, but there was no wine yet.
"Bernie, the food this time is different from before. It's best to eat it while it's hot, so the food will only be served when most people are here. Of course, there's wine!" Abel shook his head and turned back to call a servant over to instruct him. Then, he turned his head and said, "I'll serve the rum now. This rum is too powerful. I originally wanted to serve it together with the dishes, but I was mainly worried that you would all be drunk to the point of collapsing.
"Don't worry, dwarfs won't get drunk!" Said Bernie generously as he waved his hand.
Suddenly, 6 pairs of eyes looked at him with disdain. The 6 Boughton brothers also knew Bernie's alcohol tolerance. Immediately, a burst of laughter filled the hall.
"Blacksmith Master Joss is here!" Steward Edwon announced, and Blacksmith Master Joss walked through the door.
Abel quickly stepped up to greet him and said with a smile, "Joss, thank you so much. You must drink more today!"
"Guru Abel, your business is the business of the Blacksmith's Guild. It's my honor to serve you. Before I came here, I heard from my dwarf friends that your master wine is the best among the dwarfs. I must taste it today!" Said Blacksmith Master Joss with a smile as he bowed to Abel.
"Bernie, this is your hobby. Let's chat!" Said Abel with a smile as he turned back to Bernie.
"Blacksmith Joss, we meet again!" Bernie bowed to Blacksmith Joss.
"Young master Bernie, it's my pleasure to meet you!" Said Blacksmith Master Joss with a bow.
At that moment, the servant walked in with a barrel of wine. He placed it on the table and was about to open it, but Bernie stopped him.
"I'll do it myself. You can leave now!" Said Bernie with a wave of his hand.
The servant turned back to Abel and saw that Abel also nodded, so he bowed and left.
Said Bernie with pride, "You know, we can't waste any of this master wine. That's why I researched for a long time and finally found a good way!"
Said Bernie as he took out a small metal object that looked like a water tap from his portal item. He placed the sharp end of the metal object at the bottom of the barrel and slowly turned it in through the top.
