Abel ignited the defenSe and barrier circle. Ever since he was disrupted by Grand Duke Edwina and Master Mara last time, he had to ignite a magic circle every time he did research.

Abel opened the Akara Tent and arrived in front of his Alchemy bench. Carefully, he took the 3#Tir rune out of his Kong Kong spirit portal bag.

The Tir rune was etched on to a base made with some kind of strange material.

Since the ‘Akara Pen’ could etch out perfect runes exactly the same as the ones in the Dark world, Abel thought there could only be one reason the Dark World might have lost the formula to make an actual Rune: they could no longer the ingredients that make up the base.

Were ingredients the key?

Abel gathered all his power of the will and felt energy like the ocean within the rune. It was more powerful than a perfect gem but somehow more stable.

The more Abel looked at the base of this Tir rune, the more it seemed familiar to him. It was like something he used a lot.

That’s right. He took out a crystal core form his portal bag and compared it to the rune base.

Although the color was different, both the texture and appearance were almost exactly the same.

The biggest difference between them was their energy concentration level. If the base was a river, a crystal would be a little stream. Their energy difference was huge.

If he could increase the energy within a crystal core, maybe he could create something that imitated a rune base. But, that was impossible since a crystal core was a thing inside a soul beast where all of their energy was concentrated.

Actually, Abel had an idea. If he had combined some crystal cores when they were still in their half liquid state, would he get a rune base?

But he couldn’t even take out one fresh crystal core currently, so how could he get 3 of them. Now, he was hit with the old problem again. He didn’t have enough fresh crystal cores.

He had already started his blue howling rabbit breeding project. Maybe he would get a satisfactory answer in a few days. As long as those blue howling rabbits in Blood Moore could give birth to their first batch of kids, Abel’s plan was on its way to success. After that, he only needed to wait a bit longer until he could have endless crystal cores.

With endless crystal cores, he no longer has to stress about resources when it came to both his training and rune base research. Now, he had to urge to go to Blood Moor and take a look at how those blue howling rabbits were doing.

He put the rune back in his Kong Kong spirit portal bag and sifted through a large number of ingredients. He took out the ‘Elven Perfume’ formula once again and adjusted the ratio a little bit to make the smell more suitable for men. He then changed up the ingredients as well, and just like that, he had developed a new set of Elven perfume.

Abel always felt weird about male Druids using the female-specific ‘Elven Perfume,’ especially when he saw the slightly feminine look on those male druid’s faces. Would long term use of female perfumes have weird side effects?

Recently, the most powerful druid among the elves began to use the female specific ‘Elven perfume’ as well. This made normal male nobles want to use it as well. It was a trend at this point. Most of them didn’t even think about why the Druids would use ‘Elven Potion’ in the first place. But of course, the ones they use were definitely the ones that made my prestige Master Bennett.

After seeing this a few times, Abel didn’t want to be remembered as a person who changed the men’s style of an entire race. After some investigation, Abel finally created a type of blue Elven perfume, which he called ‘Cologne Perfume’!

He put 10 bottles of it in his portal bag, and the wine was almost up. He shut the defense and barrier circle.

Lola road was an important road in Angstrom city. It was a little bit further from Grand Ducal palace than Lambe road which Abel was living in. Lambe Road was a noble concentrated road made up of small to medium size mansions. However, Lola Road was made up of huge mansions for some of the most important nobles around.

The place where Prince Adolf’s banquet took place was located in the center of Lola road. Abel had spent the whole afternoon making potions, and he was now sitting in his silvery-white carriage on his way to the banquet. As he approached the gate, he had already seen countless carriage waiting outside to enter.

Upon seeing this signature silvery White carriage, the elf manager quickly stepped up and greeted with a bow “Mr, can you please present your invitation?”

“Here!” Said Steward Brewer, jumping off the carriage as he took out the invitation brought on by the Grand Ducal Palace’s steward Derek.

This invitation was written in a typical Grand Duke Edwina style. It only had Abel’s lord title on it. His Alchemy Master title was nowhere to be found. Normally a lord would still be very respected in any event organized by the Grand Ducal Palace, but since this was Prince Adolf from Begro City’s banquet, the elf manager did not seem to be excited.

In a little flick of a hand, the elf manager called in an elf servant and said: “Help this Lord secure his carriage, and lead him into the banquet!”

Afterward, the elf manager quickly dashed to another carriage with a face full of smiles, leaving only that elf servant behind to lead to the carriage towards the gate.

Brewer felt anger building up inside him and wanted to say something. But suddenly Abel’s voice came from inside the carriage, “Brewer, we are guests. Let them do what they please!”

On paper, that manager was doing his job properly. He only knew Abel’s Lord Status, so he just treated him like a normal Lord. But of course, if he respected the Lords within Angstrom City, he might at least call in 2 servants to guide them.

That way, one servant could help secure the carriage while another could guide Abel into the banquet. Now Abel had to wait until the carriage was secure before he could enter, which was quite embarrassing.

Abel wasn’t planning to interact with Prince Adolf anyway. Something low key like was perfect. Who cared if he had to walk a little bit more.

With Abel’s lord status, he could not bring a steward into the banquet, so steward Brewer could only stay in the carriage and wait.

After Abel got off the carriage, he followed the elf servant down a long corridor and took a few turns before arriving at the main hall. By this point, the illumination circle had already lit up every corner of the hall.

The guests had been organized into groups of three, six, and nine by the manager at the gate. The most important guests entered from the front gate, which they were welcomed but the close noble family members of Prince Adolf. Most of those elf youngsters did not have a high-status title since they just relied on their family’s power, so being greeted by a few viscounts and Earl could definitely give them a lot of face.

The second tier guests were greeted by Prince Adolf’s personal steward. Although there weren’t any prestige nobles greeting them, Prince Adolf’s steward was still someone very important. Therefore it could still give the guests a lot of face.

Only the lowest status guests would enter from the side entrance. There were only a few servants guarding there, and they would guard the guests towards their designated area according to their status. Since Abel had entered from the side entrance, he was led to the corner of the hall. By that point, there were already a few nobles in traditional suits sitting there.

Actually, their suits were inherited. There were normally only two types of elves who would wear these things. One was that they had a powerful heritage, and their suits were made by their ancestors from hundreds or even thousands of years ago. Therefore, wearing it would show others their family’s vivid history.
