Chapter 478 Came Back To The Academy
The wooden puppet is slowly starting to break as time passes. I closed my eyes and concentrated on the body. The passive gravity pressure is coming from my body.
I tried to slow it down. Under extreme concentration, I felt the changes. The passive ability is acting similarly to the wizard's mana pressure.
As we control the mana pressure in one's body. It's the same case with the passive ability.
Time passed,
After seeing some improvement, I ended my practice.
Outside,
The caravan is moving smoothly.
Days passed,
After 20 days of a smooth journey, the caravan enters the dragon city. The caravan then moved toward the customer's home.
In the Gregor mansion, I closely monitored the changes through the mirror.
Right after entering the city, I was surrounded by an abundance of mana. The feeling of getting back home is real.
Now I have to wait for the couple to step out.
1 p.m
The caravan was emptied after the family's departure. Without alerting anyone, I appeared in the cabin.
Then I silently stepped out and continued to walk down the road. From the beginning to the end, no one was there to witness the scene. Which gave me a chance to flee.
I'm wearing a black mask to hide my identity. After the bloodline hall's actions, a lot of people can recognize my face here.
So I walked to the place where officials rarely come. It's a bit outer area and a little close to the City Wall.
Then I contacted Senior Gilbert and told him about my arrival. He then asked me to wait near the transit area.
It would take a few minutes for him to arrive.
So I started heading toward the place.
Meanwhile,
Gilbert Reese exited the building. He is excited to see Vincent back. Instead of using aircraft or monster carriages, he decided to use flight ability.
For a level-7 wizard, the flight ability won't tire them out easily.
Several minutes later,
He appeared in the transit area. He then quickly spotted Vincent Carey among the people. A quick gleam flashes in his eyes. He can see that Vincent's temperament has changed. It's a sign of improvement.
After seeing that he decided to escort him back to the academy.
There is a slight possibility for enemy eyeliners to notice the changes. He doesn't want the news to break out soon.
Suddenly, he appeared in front of Vincent.
"Who?" I uttered in surprise. When I raised my head, I saw Senior Gilbert standing in front of me.
"Let's go," Gilbert said.
Hearing that I nodded my head in response.
He then grabbed his shoulder. The next thing I knew, we were traveling in mid-air at a fast speed. "This speed, not even I could do it?" I said in my heart.
Why does the speed remind me of a silver-haired wizard?
My eyes flickered. Senior Gilbert seems different to me. A terrible conclusion comes to my heart.
"Did he break through?" I said in my heart. Other than that there is no explanation for this terrific speed. He went one step ahead.
I remembered his changes after the central auction. It likely happened during that time.
The next second, the confusion in my heart was cleared. It's good to have a level-7 wizard as your backing. I can do more things in the academy.
Soon we reached the Academy. After seeing the scaling buildings after a long time, I sighed inwardly. I came back to the fighting ring again. The peaceful days of mine are going to be over.
Provocation, hostility, hatred, treachery. I have to face everything here.
We landed in the flower garden.
"Do you want to take your mask off?" Gilbert asked.
I shook my head. It's too early to reveal my face.
"I want the battle tower to spread my come back," I replied with a smile on my face.
Gilbert Reese's eyes lit up with surprise. He can't see though junior brother. But he knows it might be a high-end breath-covering artifact.
He gave him the magic cloak. But the magic cloak is still effective under level-6 and below wizard.
He is a level-7 wizard now. And yet he couldn't see through Vincent's strength. After removing the thoughts, he asked straightforwardly, "Did you break through?"
"Yes," I answered.
"You did well by reaching level-5. After becoming a Core House member. Your safety is more guaranteed now," Gilbert Reese said with certain confidence on his face.
He is not lying. Vincent's safety concern is troubling him lately. The academy is only interested in outstanding students.
Though Vincent is a Sub-taboo grade wizard. But his talent was not up to the mark. So it's not easy to convince the higher-ups.
But if Vincent climbs up the ladder himself, then it's something else. Vincent has the right to enjoy the academy's facilities.
At the same time, Gilbert's words stunned me. I don't know whether to laugh or cry. I almost forgot my status was level-4 Inner House Wizard before.
Now I'm on the verge of becoming a True House wizard. But I can't reveal the truth.
"Alright, let's go to the Sub-Taboo hall," Gilbert said.
Then we started walking to the building. Gilbert manipulated Mana to cover his face and his identity.
When we walked inside. Our appearance attracted the attention of others. It's been some time since I walked down this corridor.
So I'm taking a good look at it again. When we arrived before the Sub-Taboo hall. I found many staring at our hall.
Seeing that my eyes flickered with a cold glint.
"Don't look at them," Gilbert Reese said.
Then after verifying our identity, we entered the hall.
Right after, the eyeliner started to spread the news about unknown people entering the Sub-Taboo hall.
The Sub-Taboo hall is usually deserted. But this time someone entered the hall. This unusual situation is going to attract attention.
In the hall,
I removed the mask before looking towards the desk. "She is not here," I mumbled under my breath. Maybe she went for the mission.
Then I sat down on the couch. Senior Gilbert took the seat as well.
"Now, tell me. What happened?" Gilbert asked, looking into Vincent's eyes. Ever since the elemental wizard Gutt disappeared. He was under a lot of pressure.
Together with Vincent's disappearance. A lot of mysteries need to be solved.
Feeling the serious gaze of Senior Gilbert. My expression turned solemn. Then I started telling a convincing lie.
Several minutes later,
"There is no shame in hiding for months. Survival is the key," Gilbert commented. He completely believed Vincent's words.
With level-4 magic power. It's hard to survive the chase of hostile forces. Now he knows how Vincent managed to get out.
The bloodline wizards made a mistake by overestimating Vincent.
"Alright, now what do you want to do?" Gilbert asked
I sighed with relief. Senior Gilbert didn't doubt me anymore.
"I decided to hit the battle tower tomorrow. Then I'll be staying in the academy," I answered.
Gilbert Reese nodded his head.
Then a sudden realization struck my mind.
"Senior, what about the bloodline hall?" I asked.
I remembered a face from the bloodline hall that provoked me at that time. What was his name?
"Tony Burnett," I said in my heart.
Gilbert Reese saw through Vincent's worries.
"Don't worry, since you are in the academy. No one will bother you. But if you decide to go out, watch your back," Gilbert said.
Then we spoke for a few minutes before he exited.
Right after, my attention shifted to the battle tower.
Come to think of it, I can go to the library to select some gravity spells. But if I go now, I will be exposed. Then I decided to visit the library tomorrow after the battle tower challenge.
Next, I thought about the status panel.
"System, show me the status panel," I said to the system.

The status panel appeared before my eyes. Seeing those full attributes and recovered soul power. A hint of satisfaction flashes in my eyes.
Earlier, I wanted to inquire about the level-6 breakthrough from Senior Gilbert. But I feared it would create a bad impression right now.
First, I'll check the library tomorrow. I believe breakthrough methods will be there. After gaining some clarity in my thoughts, I left the hall and started heading toward the dorm room.
