Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

A few hours later,

He walked back to the bloodline hall. But the disappointment on his face can't be hidden. The Clan head, his father, wasn't convinced by his words.

In the end, the clan head decided to stop all the operations against Vincent Carey. 

Walking slowly, he entered his private room. Here no one would come to pester him. Looking at the storage bracelet. A hint of disappointment flashes in his eyes.

The forbidden potion is going to become a waste. He didn't know how to answer the higher-ups. He can't act against the Clan. 

Lots of thoughts filled his mind. He simply removed his shoes before sitting down leisurely on the sofa. 

"My side was a failure. I hope that the investigation team will kill Vincent Carey," Tony said in his heart. 

It was not surprising that the investigation team had more bloodline hall wizards. The higher-ups gave up on him before deciding to come up with the investigation team. 

If Vincent Carey was staying in the Tolu Country, then it would be impossible to escape from the hands of a level-7 wizard. 

The person leading the team was a bloodline wizard from the elder house. He was a level-7 bloodline wizard.

Even if Vincent was hiding with the help of Gilbert Reese, he can't do anything against a level-7 wizard. 

After figuring it out, a bright smile appeared on his face. But it's a pity that someone will finish the task. 

Now, Tony has to wait for his opportunity. First, he decided to break through. His father doesn't believe him to reach Level-7 in a short period. 

So he can't waste time worrying. He decides to prepare himself for the breakthrough.

Taboo Hall,

There is one more person who is thinking about him, Lara White. It's been more than a month but there is still no sign of Vincent appearing.

The students training in special classes have grown by leaps and bounds. 

Now that she has become Core House Wizard. She stopped going to the special class these days. Her level-5 Magic Spells are improved drastically under the guidance of her teacher.

So because of this, she doesn't have to train in the special class anymore. But she couldn't help but think of Vincent Carey.

Because Vincent Carey had set a record in the Battle Tower. Both in Outer House & Inner House Rankings. He topped both of them.

But there is no news about his breakthrough or strength. It's been some time since she broke through to reach the level-5 Stage. So she is curious about Vincent Carey's current status.

"What are you thinking about?" A pleasant voice woke her up. 

When she turned around. She saw her teacher Maria appearing before her. Her teacher is a level-7 Wizard. A member of the Elder House.

She is usually busy with confidential missions. But whenever she had time she trained Lara with all her heart.

"Master?"

"It's nothing," Lara lied. She doesn't want her teacher to make unnecessary assumptions. 

Maria Statham is above 35 years old. She has water-blue hair and eyes. Which is enough to tell everyone that she is a water elemental wizard.

She is also the youngest level-7 wizard in the whole academy. She is also one of the elders of the elemental hall. 

Looking at her disciple, she frowned. She has been hearing rumors lately. Especially among her inner circles. 

She asked, "Do you know Vincent Carey?" 

The words poured cold water over Lara White's head. She didn't expect her master to utter that name. 

Maria caught the subtle change in expression. She knitted her eyebrows before replying, "I advise you to stay away from that ill-fated boy hereafter."

Lara White's heart was in turmoil. She doesn't know what happened. But she and Vincent Carey are just classmates. 

They didn't have any serious interaction before. Compared to Vincent, she was thinking of him as a rival. Especially after getting defeated in the Battle Tower.

Ever since she was looking forward to his Core House Ranking. Because the current Core House Battle Tower Top rank was held by her.

Maria saw Lara remaining silent. Now she understood that rumors are true. They competed with each other in the battle tower ranking. As well as the Special Trials held by Wiard Lion in his class.

As an elder of the elemental hall. She knows one or two things about Vincent Carey. Because some of the higher-ups of the elemental hall have connections with the bloodline hall.

It's safe to say that if the bloodline hall wants someone dead, then some higher-ups in cahoots with them won't hesitate to help.

She was aware of the departure of the investigation team as well. The team had both the elemental wizards and the bloodline wizards.

All the wizard halls are aware of the bloodline hall's behavior. But none of them voiced anything. Which shows how much influence the bloodline hall has in the upper levels.

Even she was disgusted by their evil behaviors. But it can't be helped. Everyone is part of the administration. 

Lara's mind was blank. She doesn't why? But I feel something bad is going to happen. 

"Master, what is going on? He is a Sub-Taboo Wizard."

"Is he in some kind of trouble or what?" 

Lara asked back in confusion. She couldn't understand the reason for her master's warning.

Maria shook her head in disappointment. She wants to clear something first. She doesn't want her disciples to be naive like her at a young age.

"Lara, look here."

"That kid was being targeted by the bloodline hall. He won't live long. So forget about him. And focus on your training."

"With your talent and matching resources. You will soon reach the level-6 stage. Then it will be a matter of time before you join the elder house as well," Maria said in a solemn tone.

Lara stood petrified on the spot. She thought the academy was the safest place compared to the outside threat. 

She and Vincent Carey are classmates. She doesn't know much about him. But after witnessing his official duel win against Clifton Cox back then.

She considered him a worthy rival. Now after hearing her master's words. She feels a little down. No wonder he wasn't in the academy these days.

Lara took her moment to process everything. After calming down her heart, she asked, "Master, can you tell me at least why he was being targeted?" 

Maria sighed inwardly before sitting down on the couch. She looked at her disciple's quick change in attitude. A hint of approval flashes in his eyes.

Since her disciple can accept reality. She doesn't feel it is necessary to hide this matter. 

"That kid, Vincent Carey."

"If not for his magic, he wouldn't be targeted," Maria answered.

"Magic?"

"He has gravity power. And it comes under the Sub-Taboo grade. A little worse than Taboo level," Lara commented.

"Not bad," Maria nodded her head before saying. Then she asked, "Then do you know what requires to become an advanced-level wizard?" 

A look of disbelief appeared on Lara's face. Not every time you can hear advanced-level wizards. It means level-7 wizard and above.

Seeing that Lara was clueless. Maria decided to shed some light as well. It may be useful for her disciple.

"You know it's easy to reach up to level-5 Stage in magic. As long as you have enough talent, you will eventually reach level-5 without any hindrance."

"But to reach level-6 and above. You have to meet certain conditions first. It's different for different wizards. But now I will tell you the condition for elemental wizards."

"Take me for an example. I had to gain a deep understanding of the water element to reach the level-6 stage."

"In short the condition is called Rule. For me, I had to gain enough understanding in my magic so that I can touch the water rule."

"Only after activating the water rule. I broke through to reach the level-6 Stage. Then to reach level-7 you have to meet the condition again," After saying that she looked at her disciple.

What she just said now was confidential information. The information can be shared with students when they reach the level-5 limit.

Lara White was dumbstruck. Rule? Her master taught her something new again. But what is Vincent Carey's trouble with? 

Then she decided to listen to her master further. She nodded her head in understanding. 

Maria looked at her disciple. 

"Since you know what is Rule? Then do you know it's very difficult to understand and increase the power of your rule?"

"Some people spend their entire lives comprehending. Only a handful of wizards can do that."

"This is also one of the reasons why that kid was being targeted. Long ago, there used to be a gravity wizard in our academy. He was one of the ancestors of the academy."

"Before his demise, he placed the gravity inheritance in the academy. Which contains all of his lifelong knowledge. Some even speculate that it even contains the gravity rules." 

"Now, tell me. What would happen? If he gains the inheritance," Maria asked.

Gasp~ 

Lara sucked a cold breath of air.
