“Headmaster Abel is a Dragon Headmaster, the dragons should be responsible for his actions, right?” Wizard Smith gazed at Headmaster Eugene as he challenged him.

“Of course, but you really should tell me what is happening first!” Headmaster Eugene smiled, returning to his human form and stepping up calmly.

Even if he didn’t step up and block the way, Wizard Smith and the others wouldn’t dare to get closer. After all, nine God Ranks together had never been seen before, other than within the Wizard Union.

Even the mysterious sea monsters might not be able to gather nine God Ranks!

“What we do with the dwarves is the Wizard Union’s internal affair, and Headmaster Abel has set up so many God Ranks in the Furnace Fort to allow a god to form his Divine Realm, as well as stopping us from approaching!” Wizard Smith realized that Headmaster Eugene was also trying to buy time for Abel, but he still had to play along.

“Smith, maybe we are having some misunderstanding. Do you want me to help you ask Headmaster Abel?” Headmaster Eugene smiled back.

Wizard Smith took a deep breath and said, “Headmaster Eugene, the Wizard Union might not be able to go against Headmaster Abel right now, but if he continues to provoke the Wizard Union, he will regret it when our president comes back!”

There was nothing more he could say. The Wizard Union didn’t know what they should do with Abel ever since he had managed to get five God Ranks on his side. Although they didn’t know what those other four gods’ relationship with Abel was, they had to be very close to appear together!

Therefore, even if the Wizard Union gathered all their God Ranks, they wouldn’t be able to do much!

“Smith, I think you forgot about one thing. Your president is powerful, but do you think our dragon god is weak? Long ago, when we took the ocean and the Wizard Union took the land, do you think it was a peaceful negotiation? No, both sides only agreed after a huge fight. So remember, we dragons are not afraid of the Wizard Union. Don’t think your president can scare us!” Headmaster Eugene sensed Wizard Smith’s threatening tone, so he doubled down as well.

Among the God Ranks, Headmaster Eugene was still quite well respected!

——

As they continued to chat, a giant crystal ball engulfed by holy scripture emerged above the Furnace Fort.

The formation of the Mountain God’s Divine Kingdom was coming to an end, and divine power swept through the sky.

Abel finally sensed Headmaster Eugene’s presence and a wave of gratitude emerged from his heart.

Although he had eight God Ranks on his side, he couldn’t really use all of them.

God Ranks two to four were all holy knights, so he didn’t really want to expose them. Even if the Wizard Union couldn’t do anything to him, he didn’t want anyone associating him with the Holy Kingdom!

As for his four gods, they still needed a few more months to grow, and he didn’t really know how powerful they were.

Most of all, the souls of his God Rank Summons were still too young and they didn’t have the experience of a true God Rank, so it was best to avoid conflicts as much as possible for now.

The crystal ball with golden holy scriptures slowly faded, and the Divine Realm was formed before retracting into a hidden dimension.

“My followers will live for eternity. This is my faithful ground, and my kingdom will shine upon the land!” the Mountain God’s voice swept over the lands below.

A faithful ground was the basis of a god, but forming it was not easy. 𝐟𝐫𝗲𝙚ｗ𝚎𝐛𝙣𝐨𝙫𝘦𝗹.c૦m

Take Doff for example: the Battlecry Plateau was the land of the Barbarians, so it was easy for him.

As for the other three gods, their faithful grounds had been established there long ago. All they needed was some reigniting.

Although the Mountain God was forming a completely new faithful ground, he had a lot of followers in the dwarves and the burst of Faith he had just received, judging by his Kingdom’s formation, had made the situation extremely pure.

The prerequisites were met, and most of the dwarves had placed their faith in him.

Golden lights shone down upon the land and spread out. It was a god using his own Faith to ignite a faithful ground, a show of might!

Wizard Smith’s face warped as he yelled, “A faithful ground!”

Not only did it include the Furnace Fort, but the other dwarven territories around were turning into faithful grounds!

Upon those lands, all nonbelievers immediately sensed a faint pressure. Although it was not enough to hurt them, it showed that most dwarves had consented!

The Mountain God took a step forward and disappeared into his Kingdom to start its internal construction.

Abel did not follow, as the Mountain God had already learned everything he needed from Doff.

Instead he turned to the blank-faced Wizard Brennan with a smile “Wizard Brennan, sorry to keep you waiting, but the show has ended now. You can go!”

“The Wizard Unions thank you for your hospitality!” Wizard Brennan answered in a careful voice. He stood up with the other wizards and flew away.

Meanwhile, Doff’s avatar took a step forward and bowed. “My God Rank wizards, Headmaster Eugene, master is inviting you to the Golden Castle as guests!”

Wizard Smith exchanged gazes with the other God Rank wizards as he muttered in a low voice, “Headmaster Abel better give me a good explanation!”

“Haha, same!” Headmaster Eugene grinned nastily.

—

The six God Ranks flew towards the Furnace Fort and saw Abel on the Golden Castle with five God Rank summons next to him.

They couldn’t see the gods, because they were all back in their Kingdoms. Still, it took away much of the pressure from the wizards, since their numbers were now equal. They thought Abel was doing it intentionally to mock them, but actually they just thought too much.

“Headmaster Abel, we meet again!” Wizard Smith and the other four God Rank wizards bowed politely despite themselves.

“Please excuse me for letting you all wait!” Abel smiled at them.

He gently nodded to Headmaster Eugene. Since they were close, there was no need for unnecessary manners.

Wizard Smith did not take a seat as he asked, “Headmaster Abel, you must give us an explanation for what you did to the dwarves!”

His attitude was clear: what Abel had done was a direct provocation. Everything from the dwarves, to forming a new Divine Kingdom!

It was all a huge embarrassment to the Wizard Union!

“Wizard Smith, the new king of the dwarves, Yoby, has pledged allegiance to me, so the dwarves are now under my sovereignty. What I want my people to believe is none of the Wizard Union’s business!” Abel smiled confidently.

“Headmaster Abel, the Wizard Union has always shown you respect, but what you did has made you our enemy!” Wizard Smith said grimly.

“Wizard Smith, I appreciate the respect the Wizard Union has given me. If I was a little weaker, you would have killed me many times already!” Abel’s face sank and his voice turned somber at the words.

Since the dwarves were the ones wanting to be on his side, he didn’t think he had done anything wrong.

Also he wasn’t really afraid of anything. If it wasn’t because of the Holy Kingdom, he would have started a war with the Wizard Union already! 𝙛𝔯𝒆e𝔀e𝗯𝓷𝗼𝘃e𝚕.𝒄𝗼𝗺

Headmaster Eugene saw the rising tension and he quickly interrupted, “Please, let me say something!”

Abel and Wizard Smith looked at him. Neither side wanted a war, after all.

“It’s already a reality that the dwarves have pledged allegiance to Headmaster Abel, so the Wizard Union should just let it slide. But Headmaster Abel was also in the wrong, as he should have notified the Wizard Union before interfering!” Headmaster Eugene smiled.

He was clearly siding with Abel, and the wizards were not going to let it slide. It was a huge event, and he thought a single notice would do the trick?

Abel put on an embarrassed face and said, “Wizard Smith, it’s my fault for not notifying the Wizard Union beforehand. I was planning to let you know tomorrow, but you just came so fast!”

Wizard Smith just sneered.

“Headmaster Abel, let’s forget about the dwarves for now, but what are you going to say about the Mountain God creating a kingdom and making the dwarves’ lands his faithful grounds?” Wizard Hawthorn added.

Abel did not reply, instead asking with a mocking face, “Are you Wizard Hawthorn?”

“Indeed!” Wizard Hawthorn nodded. He didn’t know what Abel was intending.

“Wizard Hawthorn, I know you don’t like me and tried to use Bernie to set me up, but me and the Mountain God were just collaborating. If you have any problems, go find the Mountain God, I am only responsible for the dwarves’ safety.”

Abel was very calm, but Wizard Hawthorn felt like he was being stared at by something murderous. Although his operation against Abel had ended long ago, the fact that Abel brought it up meant that he had not forgotten the matter!

Wizard Hawthorn felt his heart drop. Abel really liked to hold his grudges. He suddenly felt like Abel would start taking revenge if he kept talking.

Even as a God Rank wizard of ultimate prestige, facing a being with nine God Ranks on his side was still very threatening!

“Headmaster Abel, the Wizard Union will take a loss on this one!” Wizard Smith interrupted them with a grim voice.

He knew very well there was a god’s Kingdom and nine God Ranks around. If they were to start a fight, they would be at a huge disadvantage.

It was especially true considering how Abel could be some times. The last time he had basically invaded the Wizard Union headquarters with his God Ranks!

With four resurrected gods on his side, Abel was a true threat to the Wizard Union!

That was not even mentioning there were even more Divine Bodies under the Wizard Union Headquarters. If they gave Abel another excuse to invade them, they might soon be in even greater trouble!

Therefore, the five God Rank wizards had to take a loss and leave. Let’s just think about what to do until the other God Ranks return as well!, they thought to themselves.
