Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

Chapter 121: Getting ready for the emergency mission

(From MCʼs POV)

Little Star Gate High School–Red City,

After we walked out of the class, I spotted Jake House, who was going to class ahead of me. And this time, I noticed some changes in him. In particular, his face is calm, unlike before in the combat class.

This guy is really strange. Earlier in the combat class, Jake House was quite anxious. Now his expression shows a worry-free attitude.

Shaking my head, I mumbled, ”I wonʼt come to a conclusion based on his expression.”

As we were walking towards our class, Lucas Brad commented in a hushed tone, ”Brother Vincent, earlier I thought you were going to challenge him. But fortunately, it didnʼt happen”

I rolled my eyes at him. Why would I challenge that monster? If I told him about Jakeʼs strength, he would have been scared sh!t.

I patted his shoulder and said, ”Donʼt forget, we are new here. We should improve our strength as low-key as possible. ”

Lucas Brad nodded at me.

Soon, we entered our class. Itʼs the last class of our day.

Time Progresses,

After the last class was over. I separated from Fatty as we walked out of the school entrance.

Fortunately, Lucas didnʼt pester me with details. He simply believed my lies. I didnʼt even tell him that I was going to take a day off tomorrow.

I sighed internally, something itʼs better not to say.

Then I head straight towards my home without stopping anywhere.

15 minutes later, I reached home.

”Creak,” the door opens.

Seeing that my dad is watching the news while sitting on the couch, I greeted him before heading back to my room.

My mum, as usual, on her night shift. She will be home the next morning. ”It looks

like being a healer is not as exciting as other branches.” While muttering to myself, I entered my room.

After taking a long bath, I wore a T-shirt and trek pants.

Ever since I saw Jake House, my mind has been full of super relics. I was thinking

about it as I leisurely lay on my bed.

”I hope that I wonʼt come across that Alan guy tomorrow,” I grunted.

Then I shut my eyes off to take a small nap.

…

Police Headquarters – Red City,

Investigation Department Headʼs cabin,

Level-3 Pain Wizard Eva Rich touched her forehead in worry. For the very first time, she feels the mission was selected in haste. She should have waited before selecting the mission.

Now nothing can be changed. She can only hope that the two teams wonʼt come across any level-4 wizards.

While Ms. Eva was in a sullen mood, her teammates were also not okay. Even if they werenʼt aware of the missionʼs inner workings, the situation of the Poison Dagger is known to the entire Police Mage in this building.

Betty Fry now understands why her friend Evaʼs expression changed drastically?

Then she looked at the other two friends beside her who were reacting the same as her.

Ms. Eva and her team feel less positive about the mission.

On the other hand, Mr. Alan Pitts and his team sighed in relief.

In order to save their captainʼs life, they have no choice other than to gamble on this mission.

Otherwise, in a few days, Captain Tyler will lose his life.

Mr. Alan Pitts also feels quite confident about the mission. Adding an expert team to this mission, he feels they will soon find Poison Daggerʼs hideout.

A hopeful glint flashes in Ms. Lottie and Ms. Pam Levineʼs eyes. Jimmy Herman also feels excited about this mission.

Department Head Billy Woods, as an old fox, was clearly seen through their expressions.

Old man Billy didnʼt want to talk too much about the mission. He knows there is a 90% chance for a mission to turn out to be a hoax.

If he reveals this news, there is a possibility that two teams might investigate carelessly.

Next, Old Man Billy commented, ”Okay, we will leave in one hour. You guys can wait for me at the information centre”

Hearing his words, everyone walked out of the room.

As the two teams walked out of the cabin, they looked at each other.

Vice Captain Alan turned towards the opposite team and said, ”Ms. Eva, Thank you for accepting the mission. ”

Then he added, ”And also thanks to your team. Otherwise, this mission would have been difficult for us to do. ”

Ms. Eva looked at Betty and the others, then facing Mr. Alan, she replied, ”No need to say thanks. We are doing it for our own personal interest. ”

After saying that, Ms. Eva thought about something and asked, ”How is he doing right now?”

Mr. Alan Pittsʼ and othersʼ expressions condensed. The information about Captain Tyler is confidential. Even they have to pester Wizard Mitchell to know about his condition.

Shaking his head, Mr. Alan Pitts replied, ”Even we donʼt know about his exact condition. The information is kept under confidentiality. The only thing we know is that Captain Tyler is still undergoing strict treatment”

Ms. Lottie and others also understand that itʼs not wise to say something to others.

Even their department head is tight-lipped about it. So they donʼt feel any wrong with their Vice Captainʼs statement.

A small glint flashes in Ms. Evaʼs eyes. Obviously, she didnʼt believe his words. Since Mr. Alan doesnʼt want to say anything, itʼs not good to ask further about it.

She also thinks that Mr. Alan and his team might be unaware of Marcus Eggerʼs current circumstances. From the last interrogation, she came to know that Captain Tyler was poisoned by Level-4 Wizard Leon Willy.

And there is no cure for such a forbidden poison. She can infer some details from level-5 Wizard Billy. She has a vague feeling in her heart that Wizard Billy might be looking for a cure on this mission.

Which means Captain Tyler is facing a life-threatening situation. And without a cure, itʼs impossible to survive.

After gaining some clarity, Ms. Eva looked at them with a strange light. Then she left with her team, leaving behind Mr. Alan and his team.

On the way towards their own office room, Betty Fry opened her mouth to say, ”Eva, What do you think of the mission? ”

Ms. Eva thought it was not wise to reveal details about Captain Tyler.

So she simply replied, ”As you heard from their Department Head, Poison Dagger is now a day very frequently jumping out of the box. As police wizards, we need to do our duty to safeguard people from rogue wizards. ”

Shelly Lang interjects by saying, ”So we can kill them if we come across any rogue wizards.”

Shaking her head, Ms. Eva commented, ”Do you hear clearly? We need to find their hideouts. Sir, Billy will take care of the remaining things. ”

Shelly Lang snorted coldly.

Neol Grant remained silent. All he cared about was the rewards. So he didnʼt put other unnecessary things in his mind.

While they were conversing along the way, Mr. Alan and his team stayed in the same spot.

Jimmy Herman looked at Mr. Alan said, ”Vice Captain, the 2nd team is terribly strong.”

He imagined what would happen if they came across Level-4 Wizard Leon Willy.

Nothing can be said for sure because Ms. Evaʼs pain magic is mysterious. He canʼt be sure, how it will have an effect on Leon Willy?

Mr. Alan Pitts sighs. He too knows about their strength. Their team is filled with top-quality wizards and their magic abilities are also special.

At this time, looking at Jimmy Herman, Ms. Lottie said, with somewhat anger, ”What are you talking about? When it comes to life or death situations, Our team is far better than theirs. Donʼt forget how our Vice Captain saved us by using his terrific speed magic? ”

By hearing her rebuttal, Jimmy Herman realized that he was underestimating his own team.

Ms. Pam Levine also echoed the same opinion by saying, ”Yeah, Jimmy, donʼt underestimate our own team. Did you forget? how you used your magic to warn us about Leon Willyʼs poison attack?”

Jimmy Herman nodded at her words and replied, ”Okay, okay, we are not lower than them”

Ms. Lottieʼs expression eased after hearing his words. A smile blossomed on the face of Ms. Pam Levine.

Seeing everyoneʼs reaction, Mr. Alan didnʼt know what to say. He is fine as long as there is a strong bond between the team.

Obviously, he understands Jimmyʼs words. A Pain Wizard is a rare profession in this world. He doesnʼt know? How many people in this world have the same magic ability as Ms. Eva Rich?

Some say Ms. Evaʼs pain magic can cause terrible damage to level-4 wizards. But he doesnʼt know it for sure. She might play a crucial role in this mission.

Then looking at his team, he commented, ”In this mission, both teams are on the same page. So donʼt look at them as competitors. As long as we find out Poison Daggerʼs whereabouts, We can get some clues about the cure. ”

Everyone nodded to Vice Captain Alanʼs words.
