Chapter 654: 654

The armchair was still there when Abel, K3308, K3305, Markham, and Bodley went to the top of the slope . Abel didn’t know why, but he thought that it was pretty funny .

Abel said with a smile, “Hey K3308, that chair belongs to you now . ”

K3308 was still a bit pale, “Such pleasure! It would’ve been better if I had a cup of juice, though . ”

“Sure, sure,” Abel took out a cup of chilled water spirit fruit juice from his portal bracelet, “Here, take this . It’s good for you . ”

“Wow! I was just kidding about the juice, brother! Thanks!”

K3308 kind of just snatched the juice from Abel’s hand . Most people would’ve made fun of him for this, but he was an injured man . Right now, Head Commander Markham and Head Commander Bodley were watching everything around them . They weren’t letting their guard down at the most dangerous place in all of the Holy Continent .

K3305 also did his part to help . With his staff in hand, he put on as many appropriate defensive spells as he could . He was getting into battle mode .

Abel didn’t really join them . He took out a sling chair from his portal bag, and he just started reading his book while lying on top of it . It was a confusing move to his teammates . It didn’t make sense to them that he could be this relaxed .

K3305 couldn’t hold it after a few hours, “Alright, I’m sick of standing up all the time . Hey, you got any more sling chairs with you?”

Soon, all three wizards were doing their own thing on the sling chairs . K3308 was rambling about how brave he was during combat . Abel was pretending to listen to him while reading his book . K3305 was reading another book .

By the way, the books they were reading were not for leisure . Abel and K3305 were trying to make it into their next level by enhancing their understanding of the wizard system . Knowledge was crucial to their performance, and wizards had to use the time they had to study what the others had explored .

If Abel wasn’t reading, K3305 wouldn’t feel safe enough to do so as well . He had been very tense this entire time, but after seeing Abel killing a troop of one thousand orcs, he decided to learn to become more composed .

So did Markham and Bodley . There weren’t any orcs to be seen . After half of the day had passed, they finally realized that it was stupid to be so alert . The orcs were trying to avoid them . That much was clear by now .

“You got anything to eat, K3516?”

After he got tired of talking, K3308 was finally sounding like the injured man that he was . He had no food in his portal bag, and that juice Abel gave him was already finished . Abel didn’t really blame him, though . Instead of saying anything back, he just took out four blue hollowing rabbit-flavoured “ration potion” from his portal bracelet .

“Wow! A ration portion!”

After being at the Miracle City for more than two years, K3308 had already used up all his ration potions . He didn’t have many points, either, so it wasn’t like he could just buy more from the alchemists .

When he took the tubes over, he just gulped them all down his throats . It didn’t take him too much time to regret it . The ration potions he had before weren’t all that good, but this one had a very rich flavour to it . If he had a second chance to savour it, he would’ve taken a lot more time to do that .

At the same time, K3305 and the two head knight’s commanders were drinking the potions as well . They were drinking like normal people, which meant that they had the time to get a better taste of the good stuff .

“This is so good, man . I can’t even… it’s just so good, man,” K3305 said to K3308 .

That made K3308 want to cry . He wished that he could savour the stuff, but he’s already had his chance .

Abel was watching the whole time . He didn’t want to say anything much, but out of his good heart and will, he took out another potion from his portal bracelet .

“Is that for me? Wha- Thank you so much, K3516!”

Abel wasn’t just giving it to K3308, though, “Hey, don’t push yourself too much . Your body’s not sturdy enough to take two at once . Use it when you’ve digested what you’ve taken . ”

K3308 shrugged his shoulders with a smile, “Oh, yeah, you’re right . This thing is enough to feed me for three days . I should probably save it for later . ”

“Uh, mine can actually last ten . ”

“What? How am I supposed to contain myself for that long? Oh, go… . . ”

After everyone was done laughing at K3308, they began to prepare themselves for the night . Of course, it was up to the two knight’s head commanders to do the patrols . The orcs didn’t appear, so everyone got some good rest .

Abel felt that it was weird that it was so peaceful . The worgens didn’t send anyone after him, but that shouldn’t be possible at all . They were among the strongest in the Orc Empire, and there were many of them that could easily overpower him .

Perhaps it had to do with the rule here . Advanced priests were not allowed to be sent to the orc battlefield . Still, if there were enough of the intermediate priests, he would still be in a lot of trouble . He was ready for that scenario this whole time, actually .

The worgens were probably preparing for something big . Abel was pretending to be relaxed, but he had already used his power of the Will to search everywhere . It was the reason he’s brought K3308 here, actually . The worgens might be targeting the main team . Now that he was here, he could at least protect his injured friend with his spiritual guardian knights .

Still, nothing happened until the noon of the final day . The hunting quest was finished, and the orcs didn’t send anyone to come after Abel .

A notification popped up on Abel’s military tag, “To K3516: you have reached the one-month time limit for your Orc Empire hunting quest . Please return to the mission hall to retrieve your military points . ”

K3308 couldn’t get up, but the smile on his face was as wide as it could get, “It’s over! I’m alive! I can live in area B now!”

Head Commander Markham was pretty glad, too, “Let’s go home now . ”

After packing everything into his portal bag, Abel jumped onto his mount . Everyone was ready to go back to the miracle wall .
