Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

Chapter 459: Choosing different route

From MCʼs perspective:

Seeing that there is nothing wrong with the status panel. I closed it. Then I decided to resume my journey the next morning. The disguise will be effective for at least 2 weeks. I hope in the meantime, I will be able to reach the edge of the forest.

The following day,

I appeared outside when there was proper daylight. The monster carriage was nowhere to be seen. But if my intuition was right, they are heading in the same direction as me.

Then without further thinking, I started walking.

Time passes in a blink of an eye,

Night time,

I crossed probably a half distance several hours later. It had taken me a lot of detours to come this far. Because I was wary of traps and backhands left by the evil wizards.

I donʼt want to get hurt in this unknown place. After figuring it out, I decided to stride forward slowly.

After I took dozens of steps forward, I was again greeted by the terrific view. I saw the same monster carriage parked in the middle of nowhere.

”Who is it?” A female voice sounded. The next second, I felt like a thunderclap rang in my ears.

Swoosh~

I disappeared from the spot and appeared in the Gregor Mansion. When I entered the control room.

I saw someone standing in the same spot.

”A female powerhouse?” My pupils constrict. Whatʼs more shocking is that she is wearing maid attire.

So someone else is staying in that carriage.

My expression turned serious. I thought nobody would come to this uncharted territory.

But after witnessing the number of people in airships. I changed my view. Yet I underestimated these influential families.

They are traveling together with these powerful wizards. Especially this maid. She found me even before the system could warn me.

I keep looking at the mirror with a surprise-filled gaze. Fortunately, I can hear the conversation. Letʼs see who these people are.

Already the Capital is torn between the 2 noble families. I hope they donʼt bring their fight to the dark forest as well. But I feel the likelihood of that happening is low.

Because these people ran away from the capital to save their life. I believe they are sensible enough to not clash here.

When I was lost in thoughts. I heard the maid speaking to someone.

”Miss, no one is here,” the maid said, looking at the carriage.

These people are none other than Linda Oslen and her maid Jane.

After separating from the Kramer group, they went deep into the dark forest. So much so that they are now located in the exact middle of the dark forest.

Meanwhile,

Linda Oslen inside the carriage furrowed her beautiful eyebrows. Through her spiritual magic, she sensed they are not alone.

But the result made her confused.

Creak~

Then she opened the carriage door to step out.

Seeing that Jane hurriedly said, ”Miss, what are you doing?”

”There may be dangers outside,” She added further.

Linda raises her hand to stop. She wants to see for herself. What did she miss?

She ignored Jane and strode toward the suspicious spot. After walking dozens of steps, she arrived at the same spot.

A frown appeared on her face. She knows this when she felt someone was standing. But now there is no further clue.

The next second, she closed her eyes for a moment. When she opened both her eyes shone with bright light.

So much that it looked like a small sun radiating in the dark forest.

Maid Jane was left speechless. Looking at her missʼ expression. She knew the seriousness of the situation. Missʼ earlier remarks are not without evidence.

Right after, the bright light disappeared. Linda returned to normal. The dark forest was again shrouded in darkness.

”Miss, did you find something?” Jane asked.

Lina nodded her head before replying, ”Someone has been following us.”

Hearing that Janeʼs eyes grew cold. She didnʼt doubt her words anymore. Because her missus used the magic spell to verify it.

In the Gregor Mansion,

A cold shiver went down my spine watching everything. I thought that maid was stronger. But who is she?

She looks nothing like the pampered miss of the noble family. She looks equally powerful. Especially her bright magic spell. Iʼm sure that magic is not a light element. Itʼs something else.

”Could you be a unique magic user?” I said in my heart.

But still, there are a lot of unknown magic powers in this world. For a moment, my heart wants to probe her. But my brain stops me from doing stupid.

She was able to find me before the system. Her magic is in no way ordinary. Suddenly, a curiosity appeared in my heart about identity.

She was nothing like the trash of the Kramer family. My mouth curves into arcs. I have a vague feeling that there will be an intersection in the future.

Outside,

”Miss, could you be a wizard from the Silver House?” Jane asked.

Linda Oslen remained silent. Apart from a few clues, she wasnʼt able to find other things.

She shook her head before saying, ”Letʼs go, we should be moving on.”

Maid Jane nodded her head before they walked back to their carriage.

In the Gregor Mansion, my expression grew weird.

”They are wary of the Silver House,” I muttered to myself. That doesnʼt mean that they are from the opposite faction.

A quick glint flashes in my eyes. There is a certain possibility for it. If my assumption is right, the Kramer Family has something to do with the Silver House.

And both of them are here. I hope their conflict wonʼt disturb me. Then I saw the monster carriage start moving. Seeing that, a hint of relief flashes in my eyes.

I sat down on the chair quietly. I decided to appear outside after some time.

One hour later,

Swoosh~

I appeared back in the previous spot. Then I opened the map of the dark forest. A holographic image appears above the watch.

I donʼt want to walk on this road. If I continue to travel along this path, I will encounter their carriage again.

Then I found another route. Which is a long one. But this path used to be the main route a long time ago. Now the route was abandoned.

When I saw several danger-marked areas. I can see why it was abandoned. The path was perhaps used by the evil wizards.

After their destruction, nobody used this path anymore. After the new kingdoms rose in neighboring countries. Travelers from these countries formed a new path.

And that monster carriage is traveling in the new one.

Sigh~

A small sight left my mouth. Itʼs not like I donʼt want to continue on the same route. But their background is troublesome.

Nobody knows when they will get attacked. Then I put the unnecessary thoughts back off my mind before looking at the map.

Then I started walking toward the old route. It would take some time to reach this path.

After a few hours of careful walking, I reached the old path but I didnʼt continue my journey. Rather I decided to resume the next morning as usual.

The following day,

9 A.M

After completing the morning routine, I appeared outside. I skipped the meditation today as well. As I had no mana stones anymore.

I carefully checked the storage bracelets in my possession. Except for the treasures, I found no mana stones.

A hint of complexion appeared in my eyes. If I got resources, then I would touch the limit sooner.

But anyway, my worry is something else. If any fight breaks out, then I have to use gravity spells. Any continuous fight will lead to a reduction in mana reserve. And I donʼt want to be pushed into a passive position.

Thatʼs why Iʼm going to avoid trouble as much as possible. Then I started walking. The old path is covered with weeds and the path is filled with uneven gravel.

For a mage, itʼs not a problem. So I continued to walk on.

[Ding! Warning.]

[Evil magic is detected.]

A mechanical voice sounded in my mind. The next second, I stopped my movements. I know this path is troublesome.

But to think I encountered the danger right after taking a few steps. I revealed a bitter smile on my face.

Then shaking my head, I pushed down these thoughts. And I closed my eyes to sense the magic trace.

After a few minutes, I opened my eyes. I sensed magic traces right in that direction. I turned around and walked to a nearby shade tree.

When I got closer, I stopped my footsteps and looked at the ground.

”Something was buried under the tree,” I muttered to myself.

As this realization struck me, I felt goosebumps all over my body. I know whatever is buried there. It can pose a threat to me.

”What to do now?” I said to myself.

Should I mind my own business? Or See, whatʼs hiding in there?

Then I retreated a few steps backward before pointing fingers at the ground.

”Gravity Push,” I said.

A wisp of magic released from my finger and shot at the target.
