Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

Chapter 696: Arrival of investigators

From Mcʼs perspective:

Mansion,

Half an hour ago,

Phill, April, May, and Hank are sitting down and talking to one person. The person is none other than Theo.

Theo is a lot younger compared to the middle-aged team. He was in his early thirties. He has green hair and eyes.

His physique is a learner with a tan skin tone. He is also carrying a wicked smile on his face.

”I didnʼt expect this from you guys,” Theo said in a serious tone.

May and April are quickly displeased.

May refused by saying, ”You broke the promise first. If you had arrived on time yesterday. We wouldnʼt have selected the newcomer.”

April echoed the same opinion by adding, ”Itʼs your fault for not honoring your own words.”

”Wait a second!”

”Itʼs not the time for bickering. We need to figure out what to do next?” Team leader Phil said.

”Harumph!”

”Just kick out the newcomer. What is there to figure it out about?” Theo said with a snort.

”We have planned something,” Hank, who was staying silent, opened his mouth at this time.

”Plan?”

”What plan?” After saying that he looked at the team leader. He soon realized they were planning something else without him.

Team leader Phillʼs expression turned solemn. Because Theo was a pillar of the team. In most of the adventurer missions, he had taken care of the enemy.

Also, Theoʼs magic was special. The enemy had no answer on how to respond.

Perceiving Theoʼs gaze. Phill let out a small sigh before starting to explain.

A few minutes later,

Theoʼs mouth curved into a cunning smile.

”You guys dared to use the 2nd entrance. Do you have any death wish?”

”Even if you are planning to use him as a scapegoat. Donʼt forget the dangers after that,” Theo said with a smile.

May and April looked at each other. They didnʼt expect to hear pessimistic words from Theo.

Phillʼs eyes flickered. He saw through Theoʼs thoughts.

”Do you have any other good ideas?” He asked directly.

”Ha...Ha...Ha...”

”Team leader, you are as smart as I thought,” Theo said with a laugh. Then he sat up straight.

”I do have a good plan. But before that I want to meet the newcomer,” Theo said.

Hearing April and May sighed in relief. Even Hank nodded his head in agreement. Without Theoʼs magic, itʼs difficult for them to face the enemy.

”Iʼm going to get him,” Hearing that, May stood up and said.

A few minutes later,

Room,

I walked out of the shower a few minutes later. Then I changed into the adventurer dress. After wearing a mask, I stepped out of the room.

May had come a few minutes ago to get me.

”What was his name?”

”Theo isnʼt?” I said in my heart. Then I started walking downstairs. Half the way, I saw a person with green hair sitting and talking to everyone.

Is it him? A quick gleam flashes in my eyes.

On the other hand, Theo also noticed someone was appearing. A wicked smile appeared on his face.

The next second, he said, ”Hi, Iʼm Theo.”

Hearing that I didnʼt show any changes in my expression. I began to reply politely, ”Hi, Iʼm Vincent. Nice to meet you.”

I deliberately avoided telling my last name.

The team leader Phill doesnʼt want any drama to happen. So he interjected by saying, ”We are discussing you. Theo is back in our team. But that doesnʼt mean that we are ditching you. We decided to take you with us as well.”

I showed a surprised expression outside. But I sneered inside. ”They still havenʼt given up their plan of using me,” I said in my heart.

Theo probed the newcomerʼs strength. Seeing that he was just a level-4 wizard, he laughed in his heart. Even the team members donʼt know Theoʼs true strength.

At the same time, I smiled in my heart. While Theo was accessing me. I too saw through his strength.

”Level-5 wizard?” I raised my eyebrows in surprise.

”What a cunning guy! He is not different from me,” I said in my heart. Itʼs just that his teammates are dull compared to him.

Then I changed the topic by asking, ”When are we leaving?”

Phill sighed in relief. Nothing serious had happened.

”We are going to leave tonight,” Theo said before the leader.

Phill didnʼt question him. He agreed as well.

May, April, and Hank stayed silent. But in their heart, they knew it was going to be the last night for Vincent.

After the discussion, everyone left. Phill and Theo left the mansion to buy the necessary things. May, April, and Hank went back to their mansion.

Seeing that I decided to return to my room as well.

...

Bloodline Hall:

The fat elder is sitting down in his office. Looking at the contact names on the communication watch.

”What are they doing right now?” He said in his heart.

He knew the family elders had entered the city on the last day. Since they were searching up until last night. He thought they would call him if there was any news.

But there were no calls so far.

When he tried to contact one of the leading leaders.

The call was quickly connected.

”Elder, what is going on?” The fat elder asked.

From the other end, a deep voice came.

”Master, we werenʼt able to find his whereabouts. He seems to have disappeared out of thin air.”

Hearing that fat elder frowned. He got the news from the Taboo Hall anonymously. Vincent did not seem to be leaving the city.

The city was especially under restriction now. Itʼs not easy to hide your movements.

”Did you guys check out the border areas?” He asked again.

From the other side, a long sigh came.

”Master, I donʼt know but the police wizards are silently watching our movements. I guess our strength has been exposed,” The elder sounded pessimistic.

Hearing the fat elder frown. He is aware of the news. The police wizards are on high alert.

But he didnʼt want to hear any excuses. So he said, ”Elder, pay attention to the border. He has to leave the city somehow.”

Hearing the bloodline elder obeyed.

...

Beluz Cityʼs police force,

The Police Head Terry received high-ranking wizards from other cities. They came here to investigate the appearance of an unknown wizard.

The team consists of 5 members. The captain was a level-8 wizard. The other members are level-7 wizards.

In the building, the investigators are dressed in police uniforms. The only difference is that they have more badges compared to Terry.

The level-8 wizard was wearing a pointy hat and black trench coat on top of the uniform. His name is Paul. He didnʼt even take a look at Terry and walked into his room directly.

His gaze then fell on the desk. Terry on the other side was terrified. The other officers are waiting outside. They didnʼt step into the room.

”You come here,” Paulʼs voice reached Terryʼs ears.

The next second, he broke out in a cold sweat. He is feeling unknown pressure from the level-8 wizard.

He then walks into the room.

”Elder?” He said in a low tone.

”Tell me what you saw that day,” Paul asked directly. Though he had read the reports. He wants to hear it from him.

Terry started to explain slowly. The officers who are standing outside are also listening to the conversations.

A few minutes later,

Captain Paulʼs eyes gleamed with a twinkle. Itʼs unclear whether the attacker was from a white organization or an evil organization.

If itʼs an evil organization, their investigation would be easier. But if itʼs a white organization, things are going to be difficult. A complex glint appeared in his eyes before it disappeared.

”Alright,” After saying that he turned towards his men.

He then said, ”You guys can start your investigation.”

Hearing that four officers left the place right away.

Terry was scared sh!t. He thought the elder was going to take out his anger on him.

Terryʼs action didnʼt go unnoticed under Paulʼs eyes.

”What about your friend?”

”Did he find out anything?” Paul asked.

”Friend of mine?” He muttered to himself.

Then he realized the elder was talking about Leroy.

Seeing the stunned expression of Terry.

”Looks like you have realized. Did the Adventurer Union guys tell you anything?” Paul asked.

”How does he know?” Terry was terrified in his heart. Not many people know that he has a good relationship with Leroy.

Then he realized that he was being monitored as well. He gulped his saliva in fear before shaking his head.

”He didnʼt contact me after that,” Terry said.

Paul revealed a smile before saying, ”Looks like that adventurer union wants to know from us. So they must be showing a wait-and-watch attitude.”

Terry wasnʼt surprised. He knows about Leroyʼs character. Then he looked at the elder and said, ”Iʼm going to ask him whether he knows anything new.”

Hearing that Paul nodded his head before walking out of the room. Then he flew away from the office building in a blink of an eye.

”Phew!”

”Level-8 wizards are something else. Itʼs not easy to strike up a conversation with them,” Terry said in his heart.
