From MC's perspective:
"Annoying rats," I mumbled under my breath. In front of the Sub-Taboo Hall. So many people are walking past. But I can tell that they are not simply walking past this place.
They ca to collect the information. Especially after seeing the flustered faces of so of them. I'm sure they want to know my movents.
My eyes flickered with a cold glint. The academy politics is way bigger than I had thought. It won't simply end just by killing two or more people.
The real headaches were the decision-makers. I heard from senior Gilbert before about the council. Maybe they are the ones who were making decisions on academy affairs.
After gaining so clarity, I decided not to alarm the people who were spying on . Then I turned around and walked toward the mission hall.
The only thing that can help
right now is the missions. It would be better if I attempt to break the limit outside.
After completing the mission, I can return to the academy as a level-5 wizard. This would disrupt the plans of hostile factions. Then my path to inheritance acceptance would be smoother.
anwhile, the wizards who were spying in front of the Sub-Taboo Hall were none other than the Bloodline Wizards.
The Bloodline Hall has sent talented wizards to do this low work. Their path to wizardry was limited due to a lack of talent. So the Bloodline Hall didn't shy away from using them to do so dirty work.
Apart from the bloodline hall, there are also wizards from other halls who saw the appearance of Vincent Carey. They didn't make any fuss right away. But they would tell the news to their respective halls.
10 minutes later,
I ca to the mission hall. Where wizards can be seen queuing up in line to select the missions. Most of them are inner house wizards like .
After taking a glance at them, I stepped forward to stand in line.
"Hey, who are you?" A female wizard standing in front of
suddenly turned toward
and asked.
A trace of surprise flashes in my eyes. Her look reminds
of a forr classmate, Victoria Shields.
"Hey, why are you spacing out?" She asked.
This person is wearing formal clothes with a red mage robe on top. I don't know which hall she belongs to.
Then I responded with a smile and said, "Sorry, I'm just thinking about sothing else."
She frowned in response. Before she could talk, her turn to select a mission ca up. Realizing that she turned her attention to the screen.
Phew!
After joining the Academy, I hardly ca across the opposite sex from another hall. Excluding, Senior Sister, Lara, and others.
The girl quickly selected her task before walking away from the place. Seeing that I stepped forward to select the mission.
Missions are displayed on the digital screen. I saw team missions and solo missions. I don't have a team so I'm going for the solo mission.
I tapped on the screen and scrolled down to see the list of missions. Suddenly my eyes caught a peculiar vision.
[Mission: Clear out the evil magic-infested area. Location: Aten, Ti: 10 days.]
[Danger: Yellow Grade]
"Aten?" A quick gleam flashes in my eyes. That place is located in Denfield state. I heard about this place from my school days. But I can't rember it now.
I don't know why I feel so connection with this mission. I imdiately selected the mission and registered my na.
After doing that I walked out and headed straight towards the library. Since I have selected the mission. Then the mission starts from now on. I have to reach that place after making preparations.
Though the danger of the mission is rated as a yellow grade. But I'm not sure. I won't buy the words of the mission hall's people. They had made a huge blunder last ti during the abandoned mine mission.
It took
a great deal of effort to escape from there. Thinking about the mine mission. I almost forgot about the bloodline wizards who are after my life. I took care of one person but I know there was another one as well.
I rember him appearing during the official duel against Clifton Cox. I recall him having green hair. I held up my chin in contemplation.
It was not good to have loose ends. But certainly, I don't have ti to deal with these things. Slowly, I reached the library area.
After logging my information into the monitor. I head to the geography section. There were not as many people as usual. Most of them like to sit in their room and read.
After finding the necessary books, I placed them on the table and took a seat to sit down.
The Bloodline Hall,
Tony Burnett perked up his ears to listen to the information collected by the bloodline wizards. After hearing everyone, he sent them out. But his expression was filled with surprise.
"I thought he would spend a few days resting or staying low for a while. But it looks like he wasn't aware of the great danger he was currently in," Tony said to himself.
Vincent's current move surprised him a little. Vincent will be going on a mission later. "How amusing?" he said. He was looking for a plan to kill Vincent later.
But the opportunity for that ca out of nowhere. If he goes on a mission, he can easily send a powerful wizard to kill him.
A bright smile blossod on his face. He is going to take care of one of the troubleso things. He tapped his finger on the watch. He began to contact the mission hall personnel.
It's prohibited to know about other's missions except for the mission hall's mbers. As long as he can provide enough chips, he can get information about Vincent's mission.
When the call is connected. Tony has spent half an hour trying to convince the person to get the information from him.
"Aten!" He cracked a wide grin after knowing the location.
"Vincent Carey"
"This ti I will help the bloodline hall to get back their face," Tony muttered to himself.
The library,
I closed the last book after collecting the specific information on Aten. My expression turned solemn for a mont. That place is not an ordinary one.
Denfield is one of the states in our country. And Aten was the forr capital of Denfield state. After so tragic incident occurred in Aten, the capital was changed to a different place.
I guess the mission was related to the tragic incident. What kind of evil experint happened out there? So much so that the entire big city was swallowed by evil magic.
After that nurous efforts were made to cleanse the place. But that place was not entirely clear. The tragedy happened decades ago. But even today that place was being cleared from ti to ti.
Now I completely recall my school days. In school books, this place was listed as a restricted region for regular humans. Because evil magic is dangerous for even wizards, forget about regular humans.
They will only add to the fuel. After knowing the complete picture, I feel light-headed about it. Since it has been cleared many tis. I'm just going to fill the quota. After , they will send another wizard to clear that place.
I got up from the seat and placed the books back in the racks. Then I walked out of the library after logging out.
Suddenly, I feel odd for so reason. I stopped my movents and looked back at the library. A cold glint flashes in my eyes. I saw soone picking up the books from the sa racks.
Seeing that, I decided to confront him. I logged into the network and walked back to the geography section.
My appearance didn't alarm him. Because he was focusing on selecting the exact books. Presumably, he won't think I would co back.
A quick glint flashes in my eyes as the person selected the exact book. But I feel odd about his appearance. He is wearing spectacles and he doesn't seem to be from the bloodline hall as well.
This person has a thin physique.
"What did he look into in this book?" The person wearing spectacles muttered to himself.
He wasn't aware of the presence behind him.
When I heard him muttering, I replied, "Shall I tell you?"
"Who?" The person wearing spectacles dropped the books on the ground. He was scared sh!t.
When he turned around. He felt another jumpscare because he recognized the person.
"Seems like you know ?" I asked. At the sa ti, I revealed a cold smile on my face.
"You!"
"What do you want?" The person asked with a trembling voice. Because he realized he had f@cked up completely. His scared behavior completely exposed him.
"I should be the one asking you. What are you doing here?" I said in a cold tone.
"Don't lie to . I caught your bumbling before. So you should speak truthfully to ," I added further.
