(From MC’s perspective)
The city of venen – wilderness,
Several hours later, I successfully directed everyone to the same narrow path where I had encountered the snake monster the previous time. If we continued on our current path, we would soon arrive at the vast plains.
So far, no one has asked any questions, and three of them have followed me silently. At the same time, I’m considering what I’ll do once I reach the vast plains.
It would be preferable if I could obtain some information about the abandoned site. Even knowing the general location of the abandoned site will be beneficial. We are currently on the wilderness’s southern edge.
The broad plains are located in the center. I learned from their earlier conversation that the strong wizards from their guild will be visiting the vast plains of the central region.
I’m hoping to find their tracks. That way, I’ll be able to learn more about the abandoned site. When I was lost in my thoughts, debating the next step of my plan.
Bob, Garry, and Peter began to have reservations.
Bob’s brow furrowed as he noticed some hints. He is aware that this path will lead to the wilderness’s central plains.
Nothing but death awaits them if they venture into the central part of the wilderness with their current strength. He couldn’t figure out what Kevin (Vincent) was up to.
“Does he know anything about the vast plains?” Bob thought to himself. Bob is currently debating whether or not to abandon their plan. He won’t be able to save others if he comes across a second-order monster on the wide plains.
After saying that Bob had stopped running, Kevin said, “Kevin, stop.”
When Peter and Garry heard that, they did the same. They both looked at each other in understanding. They’ve realized Bob’s patience has run out.
So they’re going to kill Kevin now. As he imagined the valuables inside Kevin’s storage bracelet, Peter’s eyes twinkled with delight.
Garry was the same way. He was relieved that this situation was coming to an end. Because he has noticed that they are gradually making their way deeper into the woods.
He was concerned that they would encounter powerful monsters. He thought they must leave as soon as possible. Garry asked, “Are we going to do it?” without waiting for Peter’s response.
In search of an answer, he turned to Bob.
Bob signaled him to wait after hearing that. He still harbors some lingering hopes. He hopes Kevin remembers something and can provide some concrete information.
He’d already taken a huge risk by refusing to participate in their mandatory intelligence gathering mission. So he’s not interested in learning that the existence of the purple mist area is a lie.
Simultaneously,
However, after witnessing their abrupt behavior. A cold glint enters my eyes. Why am I taking you guys with me? So far, they have not provided me with any useful information. It’s preferable to kill them and travel to the vast plains myself.
This thought appeared in my heart for a brief moment before dissipating. I decided to find out what they were thinking right now. Then I approached them slowly, a puzzled expression on my face.
“What happened?” I inquired.
I noticed three of their expressions. I can tell just by looking at them that they don’t want me alive. I can see a lot of hostility in Peter’s eyes, in particular.
Without regard for Peter and Garry’s expressions.
In search of an answer, I turned to Bob. It is entirely up to him whether he wishes to die now or later.
“Kevin, where did you see that purple flower the last time?” He asked in a commanding tone this time. He didn’t care about his demeanor any longer.
“Kevin will spill everything, even if he has to be forced to do so,” Bob thought to himself.
My face creased slightly as I heard his words. Because I was aware of his strategy.
I took a quick glance at three of them one by one.
Instead of responding, I approached three of them. I cast a spell when I was 5 meters away from them.
“Gravitational Field”
A tremendous gravitational force appeared out of nowhere in the next second. Three of them were immediately put under pressure.
CREAK
“What?” This unknown pressure terrified Peter. The tremendous pressure instantly brought him to his knees. The bone-crushing noise can be clearly heard.
The pain caused by the tearing of flesh exacerbated his condition. He had no idea this seemingly innocent young man was the culprit.
He is not at all a trash wizard. This unknown power is more potent than ordinary magical abilities.
Kevin had been underestimated. Worse, they were calculated from the beginning by Kevin.
This sudden realization terrifies him more than anything else.
Garry, on the other hand, was astounded. He couldn’t figure out what was going on. In contrast to Peter, he was crushed to the ground.
It was difficult for both of them to even raise their heads.
The crashing sound came from Garry’s side, and Peter heard it. He realized Garry had been hit hard. If this continues, both will die within a few minutes. Bob was the only person who could save them from this situation.
So he strained his neck to catch a glimpse of Bob. When he accomplished this, he noticed something that caused his feet to stagger.
“This?” In a surprise, his eyes widened.
Thud
He lost his balance as a result of the staggering. He, like Garry, was smashed to the ground by gravitational force.
His surprise came from none other than Bob Stokes. Bob, like the other two, was suffering from the gravitational field. He found it difficult to move around his feet.
On the other hand, I’m seeing the results of my newfound strength. I couldn’t stop myself from observing three of them. Garry and Peter passed out.
Their trash magic will be rendered ineffective. Furthermore, their physical condition was deplorable. They will die in a few minutes as a result of the excessive bleeding.
Finally, I focused my attention on Bob Stokes. I saw him struggling a lot. I laughed when I saw that.
Bob Stokes’ mind was blank at the moment. He was completely taken aback. He was unable to process the situation in front of him.
Kevin (Vincent) appears in front of him.
“Who are you?” Bob inquired.
“Exactly what do you want?”
Unlike his previous commanding tone, his voice has a slight tremble this time. His heart has been tightly gripped by an unknown fear.
When I heard that, I didn’t respond right away. I’m more intrigued by his endurance. Unlike others, he does not make a bone-cracking sound.
That means his bones were much stronger than I thought.
“System, look into Bob’s details,” I told system mind.

A large status panel appeared in front of my eyes.
Then I started going over the statistics one by one. As my assumption proved correct, a glint flashed into my eyes. He is a pure power-type wizard, and his magical power corresponds exactly to the name of power-type wizards.
Then, despite his lack of talent, I saw them. He managed to increase core progression to 10%. His characteristics were one or two points lower than mine.
As a result, the outcome remains uncertain. There is a chance that the situation will improve if I fight him with my body strength.
Fortunately, this probe function was available to me. Now that I understand his strengths and weaknesses. There is nothing to be afraid of anymore. Then I noticed the names of his two spells. It does not require an explanation.
I can tell from the names that the first is an attack spell and the second is a defensive spell. Two spells aren’t going to be much of a threat to me. I can easily defeat him if I avoid engaging him in close combat.
By that time, I closed the status panel. Garry and Peter were already on verge of death.
On the other hand, Bob also noticed the state of his two friends. They are going to die. “Damn you,” he roared hysterically in his heart.
Seeing that, I continued to stabilize the field. My mana reserve is enough to handle them without breaking a sweat.
Puff Garry spat blood from his mouth the next second. His vitality points are gradually dwindling. The vitality points eventually hit rock bottom a few seconds later. Garry had completely lost his breath after that.
Seeing this, I focused my attention on Peter, whose vitality points were also dwindling. I decided to wait for his death before approaching Bob.
Bob, on the other hand, believed he had reached the end of his life.
