Bernie gently twisted the switch, and the alcohol flowed out of the faucet. Soon, a cup was filled. He gently twisted the switch again and tightened the faucet.
"What do you think? I specifically asked a few masters to make this for me. It's very demanding!" Bernie said proudly as he looked at Abel.
"It's best to add a filter at the front of this thing. It can filter out the impurities from the wooden barrel. Add a clasp here so it can be fixed here. You won't accidentally break the barrel if you use too much force!" Abel glanced at it and nodded. He first confirmed it, then pointed out 2 improvements.
Bernie heard Abel's words and couldn't help but admire him. His little thing was not simple. He had asked a few masters to work on it together. He only asked for one thing.
Abel gave 2 improvements in a short time after seeing it. A Grandmaster Blacksmith was indeed a Grandmaster Blacksmith. If Abel knew what Bernie was thinking, he would definitely tell him that he was overthinking.
The reason why Abel could give these improvements was because this thing was only a basic faucet. It was the most primitive version. If he really wanted to improve it, he could come up with countless ideas.
"Bernie, you can leave it here. You don't need to take it away. I'm too lazy to make another one!" Abel said with a smile.
"Guru Abel, since you want it, I'll give it to you. I'll make a few more according to your suggestions and send 2 more over!" Although Bernie was a bit reluctant, he didn't say anything. Even if Abel didn't say anything, he would give it away if he wanted it.
"Everyone, come and try my rum. Let's drink while we wait!" Abel said to the guests who were looking at him.
"Guru Abel, it's master wine, not rum!" Bernie emphasized. He was the one who named the master wine. Now, the dwarves all called it that.
The advantage of a buffet was that one could do whatever they wanted. Everyone took a glass of wine of different sizes from the table and used the new faucet to get a glass of master wine.
The adepts weren't particularly fond of strong wines like this, but this legendary best wine of the dwarves still piqued the curiosity of the adepts. The wine allowed everyone to get to know each other. At the very least, they weren't like when they first arrived, where they only chatted with acquaintances.
"Elite Wizard Edmond and Elite Wizard Anthem from the Wizard Union of St. Ellis have arrived!" Steward Edwon's voice emerged again.
A smile emerged on Abel's face when he heard these two names. What was meant to come had finally come. To a certain extent, the purpose of this banquet was to remind the Wizard Union that he was back. Should they reconsider his wanted order? It seemed like there was a result.
"Wizard Edmond, Wizard Anthem, it's my honor to have you here!" Abel stepped up and bowed.
Wizard Edmond replied with a wizard bow, "Grandmaster Abel, Wizard Anthem and I came without an invitation. Please forgive us for our rudeness."
By this point, Wizard Edmond and Wizard Anthem had already seen the 4 elite wizards from Liante City in the banquet. These were all the elite wizards that Liante City had shown to the public. They didn't expect to see all of them here.
The dwarf on the side was the heir of the Goff family, Young Master Bernie. Although Young Master Bernie didn't have a noble title because of his age, no one in the Holy Continent could look down on him. Ever since Young Master Bernie's status as the heir of the Goff family was stabilized, he had become the symbol of the Goff family. Almost every big deal had his shadow on it.
Wizard Edmond and Wizard Anthem gazed at each other. They both felt lucky that they took the initiative to come to this banquet with a friendly attitude.
"Come, wizards. The banquet hasn't officially started yet, but you can drink some wine first!" Abel said with an inviting gesture.
"You're too kind, Guru Abel. I have a gift for you." Wizard Edmond bowed and took out a piece of parchment paper from his portal bag. He then continued, "The previous head of the investigation department of the St. Ellis Wizard Union had a small misunderstanding with you, so he issued a wanted order. Wizard Anthem and I agreed that this wanted order was not true, so we have canceled it. This is the document to cancel the wanted order!" Wizard Edmond bowed and took out a parchment paper from his portal bag.
Abel accepted the parchment with a smile. He didn't open it. Instead, he bowed to the two elite wizards and said, "Wizard Edmond, Wizard Anthem, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for everything you've done for me. If there's anything I can help you with in the future, please don't hesitate to ask me!"
Wizard Edmond and Wizard Anthem were waiting for these words from Abel. They came all the way to this banquet and brought the document to cancel the wanted order. Didn't they want Abel to owe them a favor?
At that moment, Wizard Anthem saw another wizard badge next to the Grandmaster Blacksmith badge on Abel's chest. It was a single magic staff badge. It was the badge of an official wizard. He couldn't help but gently nudge Wizard Edmond, signaling him to look at that badge.
"Guru Abel, you've already become an official wizard?" Wizard Edmond asked in disbelief.
Although all the information from the investigation department had been destroyed, they still remembered Abel's information. Although they didn't know when Abel started learning from Wizard Moreton, his rank 3 wizard certification only happened 2 years ago.
How long had it been? Abel, who was still being chased by the investigation department, had already become an official wizard. Could it be that he was not only a blacksmith genius, but also a wizard genius?
"Yeah, I've been traveling for a while now, so I've become an official wizard!" Abel replied with a smile.
Wizard Edmond and Wizard Anthem gazed at each other speechlessly. Traveling? They were being chased. There was no safe environment to be chased, and Abel was still able to become an official wizard. How could those rank 5 novice wizards survive like this?
Actually, the two elite wizards were more concerned about where Abel got his wizard badge from. Abel's wizard badge from the Wizard Union of St Ellis had been destroyed, and he didn't apply for a new one.
"Guru Abel, I've already helped you restore your wizard badge, but it seems like you've already applied for a new one!" Although Wizard Edmond knew that Abel had already applied for a new one, he still needed to show his kindness.
"Since I've become an official wizard, I need to build a magic tower. Magic towers can only be bought with credit points, so I've applied for a wizard badge in Liante City. However, I'll still be building my magic tower in the Duchy of Carmel, so I'll need your help then!" Abel explained with a smile and led the two elite wizards to the dining table.
When the four elite wizards from Liante City saw Abel leading Wizard Edmond and Wizard Anthem to the dining table, they saw the parchment in Abel's hand. Although they didn't know what it was, they knew it must be a gift.
All of a sudden, the four elite wizards from Liante City began to look unfriendly. Normally, no gifts would be brought to a normal banquet like this. Only a promotion ceremony, a wedding, or a birthday celebration would bring gifts.
Did these two elite wizards from the Wizard Union of St Ellis know how to behave? What they were doing was clearly against the rules. They just wanted to embarrass those who didn't bring any gifts.
Bernie was the only one who didn't care. Abel had been bothering him for a long time. He had hired a professional to pick out all the ingredients every day. Not only did he not have to pay for it, but he also had to pay for the teleportation circle. Of course, with his relationship with Abel, he didn't want to mention this little bit of money.
"Mr. Wizard Edmond, Mr. Wizard Anthem, come and try Abel's Master Wine. It's the best wine in the dwarfs!" Wizard Moreton saw that the atmosphere was a little strange, so he quickly stepped up and said.
