Abyssal Lord Of The Magi World-Novel

Under the stares of wonder, envy, and curiosity of everybody, Zatiel flies back to Sophia and Ezequiel before deactivating Overload, his spells, and his True Name. He sat down and started to meditate as he took a cube of food from his ring and devoured at an impressive speed.

Sophia and Ezequiel sit beside him, guarding him with eyes full of love and admiration, respectively.

Although looking a little tired, Zatiel seems perfectly fine, as if he was in his top condition even after the fight. Still, the truth was all the opposite, as he currently had less than five percent of his energy left.

Runic sets are able to give the user amazing abilities. Still, the more powerful they are, the greater is the burden they put on the body. A Rank 1 Magus at the Master level should be able to use a Peak-Rank 1 runic set. Even then, it would be only for a short time, but Overload was a High-Rank 2 runic set. Hence, the amount of vitality and energy it needed was something no Rank 1 should be able to achieve, even if we are talking about races like Titans and Dragons.

It was thanks to Natux, the double source of energy in his two hearts, his advantages as a Neo-Demon, and the incredible boost to his vitality that his Law Bloodline gives him, that Zatiel was able to meet the requirement to activate Overload.

And when he did, the amount of energy remaining in his body was so little that he could only use his Rank Spell and Innate Spells, as any other would drain him in seconds.

Feiner also returned to his subordinates, instead of remaining in the sky with the other Rank 2.

The Rank 1 werewolves were healing from the damage that Sophia spell had made to their bodies, and in their faces, there was immense regret, as they understood that the person they offended can kill all of them with a movement of his sword, and by the attitude he had displayed, it was obvious he would not let them go. Although all of this happened due to them following the order of the old man, they did not dare to reproach him, as that will spell ruin for the three.

The Rank 2 Werewolf was healing his injuries as he channeled the regenerative abilities of his race and his powerful physique. As he felt the pain of his injuries, the hate on his face was clearer. Still, there was also fear, as he knew that if the Magus had not interfered, he would have died.

The condition of Fenier was much worse than Zatiel. Due to the fact that his arm was destroyed, he would have to use a vast amount of vitality and energy to regenerate it. Before that, he would need to expel the energy that surrounded his injuries that stops them from healing. The worst part wasn't the damage to his body, but the one on his consciousness, as it would affect his overall power, and it would take a lot of time to heal since he didn't have the pills for that. All of this would make his task in the caves and encounter with the members of Dynasty truly dangerous.

'Useless piece of shit, I will make sure you pay for putting me in this situation. Had you informed me that that bastard had a Runic Set, all would have been different,' Feiner was looking at Nimir, and he was pulling all the blame of his defeat on him.

Nimir feels the stare and animosity of the old man but ignores him as he has bigger problems. He had disregarded Heinz's direct order, as he thought that even if there was some type of punishment, it would be nothing serious as he was a Rank 2 Elementium Magus, but now everything was different. He was smart enough to know that the abilities that Zatiel displayed made him incredibly valuable for any group, way more than him. Of course, he would never openly admit those thoughts.

Exactly an hour after Zatiel sat down and devoured his third cube of food, someone walked in his direction. It was the Rank 3 Magus, and he carried a friendly expression as he approached the trio.

Ezequiel and Sophia have been extremely vigilant as Zatiel had informed them about his condition. They make sure that no one approaches them. But they understood that distance has nothing to a Rank 3 lifeform, so they remained still and let him get closer without interference.

Zatiel opens his eyes and looks at the man before standing up. Still, even now, he keeps one of his minds working in replenishing his energy.

"If your energy has been restored to a decent level, I hope we can discuss something," The man spoke in a tone you would give to an equal, a great display of respect considering his identity.

Zatiel looks at him for a moment before nodding. As for the fact he was able to see his condition, the perception of a Rank 3 was greatly developed due to their need to see past the natural energies of the world and perceive their essence. So detecting his condition by just looking at him was something normal.

"I am Grigori, and my young friend must be Zatiel Daybreak. I have heard of your works as a runemaster, but seeing your skills today, I must say they were highly underrated. I will go straight to the point, I was hoping to obtain your runic set for one of my descendants, of course, I will pay handsomely."

When Gregori saw the Runic Set that Zatiel displayed, and the fantastic increase in power it was able to provide, he was fascinated by it. Although it will be useless for him, he has lived a long life and had a great number of descendants. One of them had displayed an immense talent, and since it was his family, it was worth spending a great number of resources.

"I won't do that," Zatiel's response was immediate as he turned down the Magus.

As soon as he heard those words, the expression of the Grigori became distant. He knows that Runic Sets are exceptional and difficult to get. Still, he had shown respect to Zatiel and was willing to pay a great price for it, yet he was rejected without thinking twice.

Everybody was focused on the conversation between the Magus and Zatiel. When they heard about Grigori's request, their faces filled with envy at the chance of forming a relationship with someone so powerful. But when Zatiel reject him, most of them showed smiles, especially Nimir and Feiner

Zatiel saw those expressions, but he only sneered at them, before focusing once again on the Magus that was about to leave.

"Hear me. Overload was a runic set I developed. It was meant to increase chiefly physical attributes. The only reason I was able to display such an immense increase in power was that it was meant to compliment me and the special characteristics of my Path. If someone else were to have it inscribed on his body, only activating it would be difficult as they would most likely pass out or be injured due to the depletion in vitality, and even if they manage to use it, displaying 25% of their power would be the best scenario."

When Gregori heard that statement, he remained silent and started to assess Zatiel's words. Although lying to avoid selling the rune was an option, after a couple of moments, he confirmed the truth. He indeed felt a significant increase in the vitality of the young man before the runic set was activated, and after, he was exhausted.

"Ahhh, thanks for explaining it to me and increasing my knowledge. A runic set with those characteristics is indeed not suitable," Although it seems like the business was a failure, Grigori's expression was again friendly as he talked to Zatiel.

Zatiel look at the man for a moment, and after some calculations, he spoke, "If you want, I could create a specially made runic set for your descendant,"

"Are you able to do that?" Grigori was surprised. His knowledge of runic sets may not be much. Still, he knows the difficulty of creating one, especially if it is made specifically for someone.

"As long as the individual is in Rank 1, I have complete access to his path technique, and I can get a full assessment of his body and energy, I should be able to do it. But it will take a great amount of time, and it will be very expensive, even for someone like you."

By this point, Zatiel's runemaster abilities were so high that he could perform any Rank 1 runes. In his memories, there were several runic sets that could work as an inspiration.

The only reason Zateil didn't create a set for Sophia and Ezequiel, was that a rank 1 runic set would not be very helpful for the duo and that he spent almost all his wealth in Overload.

"Don't worry about the price. The resources my family has saved will surprise you. When the expedition is over, we will come to visit you, and we will provide you with everything you need."

Grigori smiled at Zatiel, then suddenly he looked at the distance, before speaking again.

"The ones we were waiting for have arrived. Are you in a condition to leave, or do you need more rest?"

Zatiel closed his eyes, and after assessing his condition, he nodded.

"Let's go."
