High-level Wizard Lorenzo, High-level Wizard Alenbi, and High-level Wizard Eddington were all wondering what terrifying power Abel might be hiding. After all, when Abel had left the Holy Continent, he had only been a Level 16 High-level Wizard.
Yet even then, the trump card Abel had left behind at Hari Castle had been able to silently kill two Level 20 High-level Wizards. Just thinking about what that represented sent chills down their spines.
