Abe the Wizard

om birth.
We call her the Chosen One.
Apart from basic mandatory education, her growth must be in accordance with nature’s course.
Thus, we have no way to stop Loraine if she becomes fond of you.”

“Mother!” Loraine whispered bashfully.

“Abel,” Grand Duke said solemnly, “no matter what your identity is, I have a few questions to ask you.
If your answer dissatisfies me, I will still stop your relationship with my daughter even if it means offending the gods.”

“Yes, your excellency!” Abel said earnestly.

“First of all, do you know how old Loraine is? Age works every differently for humans and elves.
Humans become an adult at the age of eighteen, but elves become adults when they are eighty.
Loraine is fifty years old now, are you fine with that?” Grand Duke Edwina looked at Abel’s eyes and asked.

“Your excellency, Grand Duke Edwina, age is not a problem!” Abel answered this question with a smile on his face.
Apart from Loraine here, the other three elves here were all strong enough enough to tell if he was lying or not.

Abel was honest.
He figured it out a while ago.
Technically, his mental age was similar to Loraine’s, which actually made them a good match.

Grand Duke Edwina nodded, then asked, “Loraine will have a minimum life span of six hundred years.
Are you confident that you can stay with her forever?”

“Your excellency, my training gives me a lot more years to live than most humans.
At least for humans my age, there are not many people who can surpass my current levels.
I’m sure that I’ll have enough time to continue progressing.”

“Yes, yes! You are a third-level wizard, Abel.
14-year-old third-level wizards are very rare these days! Actually, there hasn’t been one around before!” said Duke Albert.

“Duke Albert, I’m also a knight,” Abel said with a flash of golden light, and a golden combat qi armor appeared around his body.

“Dear Spirit, what am I looking at!” Duke Elbert screamed.
He couldn’t believe it when he saw at the combat qi armor around Abel.

“Abel, you are a prodigy.
No one has made the accomplishment that you have at age fourteen.
You have passed this question!” Grand Duke Edwina nodded with a smile.

“The last question is that Loraine will be locked up for her training for about twenty years.
Can you wait that long for her?” asked Grand Duke Edwina with a smile.

In fact, up until now, Grand Duke Edwina was very satisfied with Abel (she would’ve preferred an actual elf, but still) She really liked him.
With the confidence and skills that he had, he might just become the supreme ruler of the Holy Continent.

“Yes, I can wait!” Abel said in an affirmative tone.
He was surprised that Loraine would have to undergo a 20-year closed up training.

He certainly did not expect it when she just came back home.
Actually, the 20-year grounding might just be her punishment for running away from home.
After all, twenty years was not a lot of time for elves.

Twenty years was longer than what Abel expected, but he could focus on his training during this time.
On a positive note, he wouldn’t have to worry about Loraine being kidnapped while he was busy improving himself.

“Loraine is going to have her closed-up practice after dinner.
Something serious happened during the time she left.
The elders in the royal family were very angry.
They asked Loraine to have her closed-up practice immediately.
They didn’t want her to come out until she was old enough to protect herself, apparently,” Duke Albert explained.

“Could I talk to Loraine for a while?” Abel asked.

“Of course.
You can go now,” Duke Elbert waved to Abel before Grand Duke Edwina could say anything to him.

Abel bowed, then came to Loraine.
Loraine was also very reluctant to be separated from him, but right now, the elders were extremely angered because the Chosen One was almost sold off as a slave.
While no one was allowed to interfere with the life of the Chosen One, they could have her locked in a room for the purpose of having her undergo training
