Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

Chapter 157: Part 1: Tyler Dixon died

(From MCʼs Perspective )

Class A1,

After the challenge duel was over, the classes continued.

Unknowingly, I have gained another enemy. Donʼt know why? Ever since we came from the Star Battle Platform to our class, Frank Lambert has been staring at me.

It must be his friends whom told him about me. These a**holes!I didnʼt even offend anyone. But I involuntarily attracted enmity towards myself. I already imagined what would happen next.

Either Frank will confront me or he will send his lackeys to harm me. I sighed internally, thinking about it. I want to keep things low-key for a while. Especially after seeing Victoriaʼs stats. I want to practise crazy hard.

That woman is something else. Despite the fact that my abilities were upgraded following talent leveling.

Iʼm still clueless about mana control. On the other hand, Victoria can release an icy streak from her sword without even using a spell.

I have seen an elemental wizard do that. But she is a swordsma wizard. If she can do that without using a spell, maybe I can control gravity power.

This idea rose in my heart after seeing her battle.

Even if I use gravity magic for a fraction of a second, it will be helpful for me in battles. A small smile rose on my face as I realized the future prospects. For that, I need to stop other useless activities right now.

At the same time, on Frankʼs side

Frank Lambert looked at Vincent in disdain. He heard what happened from his friends. Though Vincent Carey didnʼt say any ill of him. Frank thinks Vincent is overconfident. Vincentʼs goal of entering the top 10 ranks is a pipe dream.

In his opinion, the newcomer at least needs one whole year to raise his strength to their level.

So he didnʼt take him seriously any more.

After taking a glance at Vincent, he continued to mind his own business. In Frankʼs mind, the scene of his defeat repeated continuously.

There is a wide gap between Victoria and him. Even if he practises like hell in the future, he canʼt be sure to match the gap anytime soon. He was aware that Victoriaʼs goal was to challenge those two people.

Frank casually glanced at Brent Dale. Surprisingly, Brent Dale opened his eyes the next second to stare back at him.

Seeing that, Frank gave him a nod before turtling back to his position. ”Fu*k!”

”How strong is he actually?” Frank muttered to himself.

”Sigh,” he let out a deep sigh. He, like Vincent, resolved to engage in crazy practice in the future.

Alternatively,

There is also a group of people who canʼt stay calm. In particular, Liam Bakerʼs carefully planned event ended in failure even before it started.

Frustration rose in his heart. But soon he calmed down himself. He knows that if not now, there will be another time.

Vincent his classmate he wonʼt run away from this place. He had plenty of time on his hands to teach him a lesson.

Time went on.

Soon, the classes came to an end. Everyone had expected some information from the class teacher. But like as usual, Mr. Eric was tight-lipped about it.

The students exited the class in disappointment. Both of us walked out of the class at the same time. What happened back on the star battle platform is still puzzling everyone.

It is particularly important for class A1.Some fear that the chairmanʼs sudden change of heart might affect them. Itʼs also bugging my mind that one after another terrible change is happening in our school.

In order to clear my doubts, I walked towards the staffʼs building together with Fatty Lucas.

Soon, we arrived in front of her cabin.

I remember the last time we came here. We discussed pressuring Chairman Benjamin.

”Creak,” the door opens.

We greeted Ms. Rivers after we walked in. I can see her face is lit up with surprise. Both of us sat in the chair before talking to her.

I asked, ”Ms. Rivers, can you tell us whatʼs going on with the chairman?”

Hearing that, a look of understanding dawned upon her.

Then again, she is confused. It has nothing to do with these two kids. Both of them joined the elite class. There is nothing to worry about anymore.

She replied, ”To be honest, I donʼt know. And no one knows what he is upto. ”

After that, she added further, ”But I believe everything will come to light sooner rather than later; Iʼm sure the chairman will tell everyone after the new headmaster is appointed.”

I remained silent. Her answers didnʼt clear up any of my doubts. But there is another question in my heart.

At this time, fatty Lucas asked, ”Teacher, will he cut down our resources?”

Ms. Rivers reveals a small smile on her face. ”Today everyone saw the magic power display by two top rank wizards. Elite class is the face of our entire school. So I donʼt think the chairman will do something stupid to cut down the resources, ”she said with a smile.

Lucas nodded happily in response.

Because he asked the same question that plagued everyoneʼs mind in his class.

Ms. Rivers then shifted her attention to Vincent. Seeing him spaced out, she asked, ”What are you thinking so deeply?”

Hearing that, I answered, ”Iʼm actually eyeing the schoolʼs scholarship competition. I fear Chariman will make some changes to that. ”

Fatty Lucas was surprised to hear my answer.

If I can win the competition, the school will sponsor me. It will cover some of my expenses.

Ms. Rivers nodded in understanding. She now understood why he came here instead of going home.

She hadnʼt really thought about it before. The scholarship competition only happens at the end of the year. There are still plenty of time left for it.

She commented, ”Vincent, I can understand your worry. But donʼt you think itʼs very soon to talk about it? ”

After saying that, she asked, ”I mean, why do you want to participate? Is it about scholarship money? She had already seen through these thoughts.

The only good thing about that competition is the sponsorship money.

I nodded in response. There is nothing hidden about it. Lucas Brad commented, ”Brother, If you are in need of something, You can ask me directly. ”

I raised my eyebrows upon hearing that. I wonder what the fatty will think if I tell him he just food sponsored me. Dispelling my thoughts, I replied to her, ”Ms. Rivers, who doesnʼt want free money?”

She chuckled and said, ”I believe in one year, you will gain some strength.Why donʼt you join some adventurer guild to earn money? ”

I twitched. Itʼs already something Iʼm planning to do in a few weeks. But I canʼt reveal my current strength to her. I sighed. My time was literally wasted here.

”Iʼll think about it, Ms. Rivers,” I said.

Then we talked about a few other things before exiting the building.

We parted ways after stepping out of the school.

15 minutes later, I reached home.

”Creak,” the door opens.

After waking up, I found my parents and brother conversing with each other.

I nodded at them before walking upstairs to my room. Then I spent a few more minutes getting freshened up. I wore a 3/4 and a T-shirt before walking downstairs to join the others.

Seeing everyone watching the news,

I sat beside Brian to watch. My dad and mom asked about my magic practice. I told them it was going well before turning my attention back to the news.

My pupils constricts, because the reporters are broadcasting images of police headquarters.

[Captain Tyler Dixon died]

My expression changed drastically after reading the head lines. Shock! Disbelief! I felt a myriad of emotions within seconds.

I noticed the crowd gathered at police headquarters.The reporters were pushed by the guards. They are only allowing officials to enter the building.

My mind went blank for a moment. Suddenly, I noticed familiar silhouettes at the entrance. Alan Pitts, Lottie Ewing, Jimmy Herman, and Pam Levine. Four of them are surrounded by officials and other important people.

My time was spent on retrieving super relics. So I almost forgot about the police headquarters. Thanks to their poison bottle, which helped me in killing Jake House.

I recall Captain Tylerʼs condition being much worse two days ago. Mr. Laurentz told me some of them went on a mission. I thought they would find the cure somehow. But it looks like they failed.

Poor guy! I feel sorry for him. Suddenly, I recall something. A cold shiver went down my spine. Some time ago, Poison Dagger ordered their wizard to assassinate me.

I thought everything would be fine once he got cured. Now that he died, I wonder what will happen in the future. I hope a poison dagger wonʼt target me anymore.

Various thoughts run in my mind. I felt myself involved in bigger trouble unknowingly. Do these guys even know I got fired from the job?

Images of Mr. Laurentz flashes before my eyes. Fortunately, I have his contact. Iʼll talk to him later.

Brian noticed Vincentʼs expression. Seeing Vincentʼs troubling expression, he raised his eyebrows in confusion.

He asked, ”Vincent, what happened?”

”Nothing,” I replied before walking back to my room.

My mood was worsened by the news. I decided to meditate first to calm my heart.
