(From MC's perspective)
Red city,
John yers reached his favorite spot for interrogation.
Thud
After putting down the level-5 wizard's body. He imdiately sends the picture of the person to Vincent Carey.
"It will take so ti for him to wake up," John observed the body of the wizard. To not let him die, he fed him an antidote potion.
At the sa ti, inside the Little Star Gate High School.
Beep!
After receiving the ssage from John, I imdiately sat in an upright position to read it. When I saw the image of the person, a quick glint flashed in my eyes.
No doubt, it's him who sneaked into my room so ti ago. After confirming, I replied to John yers.
After closing the ssage, I exhaled in relief. "Now, I can go back ho," I mumbled under my breath. I was just waiting for John yers's signal.
Fortunately, he ca in ti and caught the enemy. Hmph, level-5 wizard? Later, I will ask John yers about this person.
The next mont, I got up from my seat and proceeded to leave. But before I could do anything.
Three people entered the room all of a sudden. Seeing that, I stopped my movents and looked at them.
"Vincent Carey, how are you feeling right now?" Chairman Benjamin inquired.
Hearing that I responded with a smile on my face, "I'm feeling much better right now, chairman."
Chairman Benjamin nodded. But I see the class teacher's worriso expression. Has sothing bad happened behind my back? A doubt rose in my heart.
I rember the class teacher's earlier words. It's about the final duel. Looking at the Chairman, I feel he ca here to confirm sothing.
Besides, Class teacher Eric. There is also the headmaster Chester who is looking at
with a scrutinizing gaze.
"Ha...Ha...Ha...,"
"Good" "Good"
Benjamin said with a laugh. He is now more satisfied with the response. This ans the final duel will be more blockbuster.
He looked at Vincent with a hint of approval in his eyes. He feels Vincent is more pleasing to the eyes compared to Quinn's father and son.
Then he decided to co straight to the point. He asked, "Vincent, how are you feeling about the final duel?"
Hearing that my eyes glead with a twinkle, "Sure, it is about the final duel."
"Sigh"
I let out a deep sigh before saying, "I can do well even in my current state."
Benjamin nodded his head in understanding. Then he said, "Before coming here. I just dealt with Quinn's family. Danny Quinn's father wanted so explanation for his son's injury and he requested to see you."
"But I denied his request straightforwardly."
Hearing that, a solemn expression appeared on my face. I'm already feeling a headache when it cos to Frank Lambert. Now there is another crooked head.
Why can't they digest this little bit of suffering?
I sighed inwardly. Looks like I have to cleanse my hand with so blood before going to the academy.
Dark league, Frank Lambert and now this Quinn family. My mind sprang up with so calculations.
A surprise glint flashed in Benjamin's eyes. "Is he just a school kid?" He is impressed by Vincent's calm deanor at this young age.
"Alright, I just want to remind you that no one can harm you inside the school campus. But it's different once you step outside," Benjamin said in a solemn tone.
He doesn't want to scare the kid. But it's a fact. He can do whatever is inside the school. But if he takes a step to protect this kid outside, it's tantamount to offending so forces.
Which is not good for him and his school either. Besides this kid, Vincent is not helpless. Behind, there is a giant behemoth. Since he is not officially enrolled yet. He will face so obstacles for so ti.
And every obstacle will disappear once he gets inside the academy. Benjamin understands this truth clearly.
On the other hand, listening to the chairman's concern. I don't know whether to laugh or cry. I can't tell him that a certain big man from the academy is already here for my protection.
Then without changing my expression, I replied, "Don't worry chairman, I'll be careful."
Hearing that Benjamin nodded before leaving the room with the others.
A few hours later,
I got discharged from the clinic. By the ti I reached my house it was already midnight. But I see the lights in my house are still on.
Creak,
After opening the door, I entered inside. I saw mum and dad were sitting on the sofa. There is also my good brother speaking to them.
The next mont, everyone turned towards
after hearing the door opening sound.
"Vincent!"
"Are you alright?"
"How is your injury?"
"Brother?"
Hearing everyone's concern, I signed inside. Then it took
half an hour to convince them that I'm alright.
After getting inside my room, I finally got so privacy. Fortunately, mum and dad were healers. They felt relieved after checking my body.
But again why didn't they co to school to see ? I heard their hospital is also a major organization. Since it's in the dical field it didn't garner much attention.
I feel their organization is not an easy one. Besides, I also feel good that they didn't co to school. Otherwise, it's impossible to handle all those dramas.
Also, Chairman Benjamin sounded displeased when he ntioned Quinn's family. Anyway, I have Elder John yers with . There is no need to worry about my safety.
After removing those unnecessary thoughts, I decided to get a bath before going to sleep.
The following day,
I woke up pretty late. But I stayed in my bed to watch so latest news. Due to yesterday's tiredness, I forgot to look at the online articles.
After opening the browser in my communication watch, I searched the recent news about my school.
Soon various headlines popped up in seconds.
[Final Duel: Who is going to win?]
[Is that new dark horse going to forfeit?]
[Vincent Carey: A mysterious wizard?]
[Brent Dale: Unknown magic ability?]
Looking at the series of articles, I revealed an amusing smile on my face. These reporters are sothing.
But it's okay that there is no negative news about . Are so dia houses saying that my odds of winning were a little low?
Which made
frown a little. Then I see extrely exaggerated news about Brent Dale. Can defeat an opponent without lifting a finger?
Seeing the headline, a quick glint flashed in my eyes. Is this so kind of propaganda? I clicked the headline to read it. After a few seconds, I sighed inwardly.
Biased news is already starting to appear. But no worries, I have confidence in my gravitational power. Then I got up from my bed to freshen up.
30 minutes later,
I wore casual clothes. I have no plans on visiting outside. Except, I want to know about the level-5 wizard enemy. Sitting in a chair, I sent a ssage to John yer.
A couple of seconds later, I received a reply back. After reading the ssage, I beca excited. "I had never expected a sudden visit from him," I uttered in surprise.
John yers is on his way towards my ho.
Then I quickly went downstairs to inform my parents. Seeing my mum and dad in their comfortable clothes, my eyes glead with a twinkle.
"What about work?" I blurted out all of a sudden.
Hearing that Father Brad Carey grinned. He answered, "Of course, we took a few days off from our hospital."
"What?" I exclaid in response. Is this real or what?
"Dad, how co your hospital administration beca so generous?" I asked back in surprise. They used to suck the life of healers like leechers. So what happened now?
"Brat, watch your mouth?" Brad Carey retorted.
Mother Lila Carey added further by saying, "Our departnt head already beca a huge fan of yours."
"So this ti our request was accepted easily because of her."
No wonder, I felt sothing amiss yesterday. But I ca here for a different reason.
"Ha..ha...ha..., I'm a bit surprised that's all."After saying that I revealed about John yers' visit.
The next second, my dad beca serious. His expression looked the sa when he t John yers for the first ti.
Then after chatting for a few more minutes, I walked back to my room. I don't want to step outside. Because I knew a lot of reporters were waiting outside.
They can't wait to get a bite of .
After entering the room, I decided to ditate.
I sat cross-legged and started to run the gravity ark thod. Slowly the gray mana particles started to move towards . It is a really slow process compared to the mana chamber.
When the gray particles entered my body. I started to guide the energy according to the ntal thod. Slowly the energies finally settled down inside my mana core after so circulation.
This slow process frustrates . Since I have no other schedule. I decided to concentrate more. I don't know. Elder John's current whereabouts. But I believe it will take so ti for him to get here.
Ti passes in a blink of an eye,
One hour later, I opened my eyes and stopped the ditation.
