Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

The big screen is displaying the images of all the 15 participants before stepping on one. When the image of the wizard appeared. The whole place went silent.

The wizard is none other than the Yellow River Academy\'s Sub-Taboo Wizard, Vincent Carey.

Seeing the image on the screen, the announcer said,"The person who will get a free pass to the next stage is Sub-Taboo Wizard, Vincent Carey."

His voice reached everyone\'s ears in the spectator area and the 3 gallery rooms as well.

Cheers!

The crowd erupted with loud cheers. Everyone wants to know who will get the free pass earlier. Because as long as the wizard who gets the free pass can skip the 2nd stage and then participate in the 3rd stage directly.

Inside the A Block Gallery Room,

Gasp!

Some of them sucked cold breath of air. While others are in a state of disbelief.

"He can\'t get more luckier than this," Mike Curtis said in a low tone.

Pete showed a dumbfounded look.

Where Jennie and Miranda sighed in relief.

The council elders who were worried earlier showed relief as well. The female council elder then sent a message to Stella Glover to return.

15th room:

The dark lord old man is wondering whether to open the door or not.

All of a sudden, the announcer\'s voice reached everyone\'s ears.

Hearing that dark old man\'s eyes flickered.

"Was it a coincidence? Or pre planned earlier,\'\' He said in his heart.

He has been waiting for the target since last night. Thr target has not arrived yet. But right now, the target\'s name was selected for the free pass.

"Harumph," He let out a cold snort.

"To think the competition was rigged from the start," A hint of displeasure flashes in his eyes.

At the same time, the knocking sound was stopped.

Stella Glover has also received the news. But she wasn\'t able to tell whether Vincent Carey was in the room or not.

"But the door was locked?" She asked herself.

When she thought about it, Vincent\'s name was selected for the free pass. A hint of relief flashes in her eyes.

"Maybe he will come later," She said in her heart. Then she decided to return. Before going away, she takes a look at the locked door.

She couldn\'t help but wonder. Has Vincent locked it on purpose? Then shaking her head, she starts returning to the Gallery room.

Inside the room, the dark lord old man guessed that person was gone. Since the target has given the free pass. He won\'t be surprised even if the target won\'t return until tomorrow.

Meanwhile,

Inside the Gregor Mansion, my gaze never left the sight of the dark lord old man. Looking at the time, the 2nd stage should have started by now.

Thinking about it, a cold glint flashes in my eyes. I was hoping that someone would barge into my room to check.

But no one has come so far. And this old man doesn\'t seem to leave anytime soon.

What to do? I tried to come up with a solution. But it\'s impossible for me to confront him directly. It would become nothing but suicide.

"I don\'t think people still won\'t come if I fail to appear on the duel platform," I said to myself.

Outside,

The dark lord old man decides to send a message to the dark league elder. Maybe he could find the current whereabouts of the target.

In the meantime, he decides to stay in this room.

On the other hand, Stella Glover returns to the gallery room. She saw that the first duel of the 2nd stage was taking place.

It\'s going on between the Weapon Palace Academy and Royal Force Hall.

When she walked into the room. Everyone\'s gaze was on her.

The female elder asked,"What happened?"

Stella replied,"His room door was locked from inside. Even after my continuous loud knocking there was no response from inside."

"I don\'t even know whether he is inside or not," She added.

Gasp!

The next second, a small exclamation sounded in the room.

"Is he still sleeping?" Mike asked in a joking tone.

But he is actually paying attention to Pete\'s reaction. Just as he expected, Pete is showing an unnatural look.

Like he knows something about Vincent Carey. Every time someone brings bad news about Vincent, Pete\'s face changes drastically.

"He is not in the room," the female elder muttered.

Then the council elders decided to contact Sub-Taboo Wizard Galvin Martin. He is also one of the council elders.

So they are staying in touch with each other.

Stella returns to her seat. Some are envious that Vincent received blessing in disguise. He was stuck for some reason. Yet he was saved by the free pass.

The council elders breathed a sigh of relief. For the next stage, 8 of them will participate. One of them was given a free pass.

Which happens to be the Yellow River Academy. If Mike Curtis can get one win, then they will secure 2 places among 10.

Mike Curtis on the other hand is very well aware of the council elder\'s thoughts. But he was not worried at all.

But he couldn\'t help but look at Pete again.

"There was definitely something wrong with him," Mike said in his heart.

If Vincent fails to appear within today, he made up his mind to confront Pete.

Capital City:

On the other hand, the crippled old man has found many suspicious people outside of the Capital City. But none of them are high ranking wizards.

So he didn\'t take any action. As long as the patrol guards pay attention to them, they will get exposed sooner.

He still thinks that Vincent Carey is in the duel arena. But he doesn\'t know that the people there are looking for him.

Sub-Taboo Hall:

In the academy, Elder Galvin who was staying in his mansion received the message. But he was in meditation. So he didn\'t pay attention to the messages.

Time passed in the blink of an eye,

30 minutes later, two duels were over. The Royal Force Hall and the Weapon Palace Academy each won the duel.

Aaron lost the duel against the Royal Force Hall Wizard. Which leaves them only with Mike, Pete and Jennie.

Seeing that Aaron was defeated so easily. Pete and Jennie are losing their confidence slightly.

On the other hand, Elder Galvin ended his meditation.

When he opened his eyes. He noticed that there were tons of messages, voice notes and missed calls.

But Galvin decides to take a bath first.

20 minutes later,

After changing into the fresh clothes, he remembers those messages and decides to read them.

He sat on the sofa and activated some gadgets to allow wind to come inside the room.

Galvin begins to read the message one after another. Most of the messages are related to the mission and some administrative work.

After going through those messages, he finally set his gaze on the last message. Seeing that it was from one of the council elders.

A quick gleam flashes in his eyes.

He remembers this person accompanied students to the Wizard Heart Competition.

"Why is he calling him right now?" Galvin muttered to himself.

Then he attended the call.

The next second, he heard the voice of the elder.

"Elder Galvin, are you free right now?"

"Yes, I\'m free right now. Is there any issue to solve?" Galvin asked.

"Uhhmmm..."

"Elder, I don\'t know what to say. But Vincent Carey was not here. We went to his room to check but his room door was locked."

"We weren\'t able to reach him through the call as well," the elder said.

Hearing that Elder Galvin was shocked for a moment.

"What?"

"How is it possible?" Galvin asked.

He couldn\'t believe what he was hearing right now.

"Send someone to check his room. I\'ll be on the way there," Galvin said.

He thinks that Dark League might be behind this. They had failed to do so at the Adamont Canyon. So he won\'t be surprised. If they are behind Vincent Carey\'s disappearance again.

"I have to find him before the events repeat like the Adamont Canyon," He secretly thought in his heart.

"Okay," The elder replied.

After ending the call, Galvin immediately called Vincent. But there was no response at all .

After a few more attempts, he furrowed his eyebrows.

He doesn\'t think that the news is this simple. After getting ready he left. He also informed the dean of the academy.

Inside the Dean Majestic Tower,

The old man dean was happy earlier. Because of Vincent\'s free pass to the next stage. But he didn\'t expect that Vincent was not there at all.

"Why is that every problem related to this kid?" the old man dean muttered to himself.

Then he remembers that the crippled old man was in the Capital City. Then how come new trouble appears right now?

Anyway, he is going to inform the crippled old man as well. He can\'t handle this alone.

After gaining some clarity, he informed the crippled old man.
