Chapter 130: The Gate of the City

Exodus Tales Exodus Tales

Of course, not everyone’s gaze was nice. A mount wolf was the signature mount of a wolf rider. Many people were afraid of it, especially those who had family members who died at the hands of a wolf rider.

However, no one was dared come out and block Abel’s way. Everyone knew, a Knight who could possess a mount like this, carelessly riding it out on bright daylight, must have an unimaginable status.

Black Wind was only jogging, but it was still fast. The natural scent of these mount wolves could often make ordinary horses faint. War horses were often a lot stronger, but since Black Wind had reached the rank of a soul beast, they would still get very nervous when the smelled the scent of Black Wind–even if Black Wind was not targeting them.

During this entire ride, Loraine was sitting in front of Abel. She was laughing with pure joy. Abel noticed many frightened war horses along the way. At that moment, Abel jerked with his heart saying, “Black Wind, hold back your beast’s impose.”

It was a lot easier for Black Wind to understand these commands through its soul connection with Abel, than spoken words. Immediately, he began to hold back his vicious beast’s impose. After a while, the threatening scent of Black Wind disappeared. Other than its powerful appearance, Black Wind came across as just like another ordinary harmless mount.

“Big brother Abel, can we go outside the city and take a look?” Loraine still didn’t have enough fun, so she stared at Abel with her big eyes, begging for him to take her further.

“Ok. But not too long, I still need to go back to the magic tower today.” Abel replied he was basically defenseless to Loraine’s requests.

“Thank you, big brother, Abel.” Loraine said excitedly, patting the neck of Black Wind. Then she said, “Black Wind, let’s go fast. We’ll go to play outside the city.”

Normally Black Wind was locked up in the courtyard in a Triumph boulevard. Although it was not a small courtyard, it was still nothing compared to being outside. When it heard that it could go outside the city, it immediately began to speed up. It was faster than a normal war horse running at full speed.

“Stop!” They had arrived at the South Gate if Bakong City. A beginner Knight walked up with his war horse. The beginner Knight was a handsome young guy wearing a shiny white armor, reflecting his family’s wealth.

Abel was stunned a little. He passed through the South Gate every day along his way to the magic tower, and no one had ever stopped him. Why there was someone stopping him today all of a sudden, he reached out his hand and lightly tapped on the neck of Black Wind, signaling it to stop. Black Wind let out a dissatisfied sound and came to a halt.

“Who are you? Where do you get that mount wolf?” Asked the young knight with a grounded voice, viciously staring at Abel. Then, a sudden surprised look emerged when he gazed at Loraine.

“Since when did the Royal defense force began examining the personal assets of the nobles?” Abel said after seeing that he was looking at Loraine. He was a little irritated, so he decided to bite back.

The young knight stared at Abel with a pair of cold eyes and closely looked up and down at him. Understanding different etiquettes and outfits were a crucial skill in Bakong City in the Duchy of Carmel. This was because, through these things, a person could understand the status of the person they were facing. Then, they could decide if they could offend this person, or if offending them was worth it.

Abel was suddenly carried out of the city all of a sudden on black wind with the demand of Loraine. He was still wearing an ordinary white robe. This also had to do with the fact that he had to enter and exit the magic tower constantly. The body of wizards tended to be weaker, so they would often wear a robe. Abel didn’t want to be a sore thumb out, so he usually would also wear a robe.

Due to the influence of his previous world, Abel also really liked pure cotton things as they feel comfortable on the body. However, pure cotton clothing was considered as cheap in this world, and normally nobles would not wear it.

The young knight gave a cold smirk. The knight thought that the young man in front of him had clearly undergone some noble etiquette training, but his outfit was way too normal. But the young knight was doubtful. Owning an elf and a mount wolf was not someone an ordinary noble could attain.

“Big brother Abel, let’s go,” said Loraine, sounding a bit irritated. She only had one day to play with big brother Abel and most of the time had already been taken up by this Knight in front of her.

“If you have nothing important to say, please step away.” Said Abel with a slightly angered tone, stopping him for no reason and didn’t even say a word.

As a person who had deep knowledge in the noble’s etiquette, the young knight knew that no big nobles would let an elf call themselves brother or sister, it was something very embarrassing. Therefore, after he heard the elf called Abel as a “Big Brother”, he made a decision. He would arrest this young man under the law of smuggling orcs. There was no way a big noble could own a mount wolf like this. There had to be a problem.

“I will arrest you under the name of the Royal defence force, can you please go back with me to answer a few questions about where did you get this mount wolf!” The Knight said to Abel who was trying to comfort Loraine. He then took out a medal, showing that he was a small captain of the Royal defense force.

“Arrest me?” Abel couldn’t believe what he had heard. Then took out a card on his waist and said to the Knight “Do you really want to arrest me?”

“Do you think a rubbish card like this could threaten me!” Without a doubt, the knight had already struck the card on Abel’s hand on to the ground. Abel was shocked, how could a brainless young knight like this even exist, striking the identity card of Morton magic tower on the ground without even thinking.

At first, Abel was only a little bit irritated by a young knight was blocking his way. He understands that even car drivers in his past world were often stopped to check their driver’s license. However, everything changed when he presented his identity card. This little gesture had become an insult to Wizard Morton.

Abel was furious that someone had insulted the identity card of his teacher. He unleashed his impose pressure. Although normally an intermediate Knight could not unleash any impose pressure, due to Abel’s strength, it directly unleashed the natural impose of his body. When Black Wind felt the impose of Abel, it also unleashed his beast impose as well.

Previously on Triumph boulevard, two horses had been so frightened by Black Wind’s indirect impose that they pooped themselves. Now, Black Wind was directly unleashing its beast impose on to the young Knight’s war horse. The war horse let out a faint sound of “wooo”, and soon it was lying motionless on the ground. The young knight on top of the war horse was shocked, but after years of Knight’s training, a Knight’s basic move was instinctive to him. As his war horse was falling, he did a backflip and landed on the ground putting on his defense pose. He stared at Abel with a threatening look as a white string of combat qi shot out from his body.

“Baron Abel, have mercy!” A voice came from the top of the city wall as a shadow of a man jumped down. It was the commander that Abel had fought a few days ago. Since this commander was now the man of the eldest prince, he was promoted to become vice-captain of the Royal Defence force. He was just patrolling nearby and saw someone using combat qi, only to discover that one of his men was about to fight Abel.

“We meet again!” Said Abel, staring at the commander with cold eyes.

“The honorable baron Abel, the vice-captain of the Royal defense force, Lowell, is glad to see you!” Commander Lowell said as he bowed or Abel.

At first, commander Lowell did not want to get involved. He was frightened by the power of this young intermediate knight Abel and his connection with head commander Hopkins. However, as the vice-captain of the Royal defense force, if he saw this situation and didn’t go save his man, his status in the Royal defense force would be impacted.

“You really want to help him?” Asked Abel, his voice was sounding extremely cold. This matter was not only about himself but also the name of Wizard Morton.

“Did you think that you could black mail us by just knowing head commander Hopkins.” Said commander Lowell. He didn’t think of the fact that Abel did not care about his dignity. He was left with no choice but to do this, despite not knowing how things had started.

“I will kill him today, who can stop me?” Abel’s eyes fixed on commander Lowell as he leashed even more impose from his body. He then gently lifted Loraine and put her behind his back.

Abel had decided if commander Lowell really wanted to stop him. He could have a taste of his continuous “firebomb” spell attack, it seemed like a good time to test out the power of the rank 7 “firebomb” spell as well.
