(From MC’s perspective)
When I saw the face of my parents, my expression froze. But I quickly recovered myself. Instead of panicking, I began to form a good answer in my mind.
Then after gaining some clarity, I revealed a small smile on my face before walking up to the front door.
“Vincent, we need to talk.” Mother Lila Carey said in a solemn tone.
I slowly nodded my head hearing that then I walked into the house. Seeing me enter, mum and dad quickly followed me inside.
Then three of us went to the living room and sat on the couch for a discussion.
I watched both of their expression. Then I take a glance at the opposite room. Seeing that my good brother is not here. My mood brightens a little bit.
Feeling the gazes of my parents, I decided to speak before they bombard me with questions.
“Cough”
“Mum and Dad”
“I went to vast plains,” I said with a straight face.
“Vast plains,” Brad Carey was shocked to the core.
“What?” Lila Carey’s brain went numb.
Both of them felt it was unbelievable but after seeing their son’s serious expression. They did believe now.
What are Vast Plains? They both know the horror of that place. As level-3 healer wizards, they already know that many 3rd and 4th-order monsters reside there.
In shock, Brad Carey asked, “What happened?”
Looking at their dumbfounded expression, I sighed inside. Some time ago, I already told them about my hunting career. Though their reactions were not big at the time.
Because, I only told them about my training in the outer area, which is close to the city wall. But the vast plain is different. Even strong wizards won’t survive in that place.
“Well, I wanted to come back yesterday. But on the way, I felt the auras of a strong monster. So to escape from them, I ran in the opposite direction towards the vast plains. ” I said in a trembling voice.
“Gasp,” Lila Carey got up from her seat. She forgot about their questioning. She immediately went near Vincent and checked whether her son has sustained any injury.
As a level-3 healer wizard, she can easily see through the details. After seeing that her son is fine, she sighed in relief.
Brad Carey was shocked as well. It’s already a miracle to survive in that place. But his son had somehow escaped from the successfully. He also saw Vincent has no injury on himself. Which further made him stunned.
But still seeing that his son was safe. It is all that matters to him. Right now, the earlier displeasure was also swept away from his heart.
Since the matter of their son’s job as a hunter is known to them. They both had suspected that he might be in the wilderness. But they are dissatisfied with the lack of communication between them and their son.
Which made them worry a lot. Thinking about it, Brad Carey sighed. Although, he wanted to ask what happened then. But now is not the time.
Vincent needs to take some rest.
“Okay, you can go back to your room,” Brad Carey said.
My eyes gleamed with a twinkle. Then after once again telling them, I’m fine. I walked back to my room.
Creak
After closing the door, I exhaled in relief. I did good back then by revealing my weekend job as a hunter. If not my sudden disappearance would have risen a lot of eyebrows.
Then dispelling the thoughts, I went to take bath. After some time, I changed into casual comfy clothes and laid down on my bed.
“System, show my status panel,” I said to the system.

A wide status panel appeared in front of my eyes. Seeing that my gaze immediately fell on the updated version 1.1. I cracked up a wide smile.
When I look back, the whole situation seems unreal. “It’s a huge pie fallen from the sky,” I grumbled to myself.
Then I quickly began to look into my statistics. Seeing that there are two additional lines in my status, I looked at it.
“Title?” I uttered in surprise. Is there any value to it? A lot of questions appeared in my mind. But the next second, I dispelled the unnecessary thoughts.
Maybe the system listed out my achievements. I former own conjecture about the title.
Then my gaze fell on the next line. Which seems most important to me. System storage function. I saw the number of items in the system’s storage. Except, the Gregor mansion. The rest of the items were looted ones.
Seeing that there are many, I decided to sort them now one by one.
Time passed,
After sorting out the items, I sold them online a few hours later. Now, my bank account balance is 10,000 alliance points.
Seeing the amount, the image of the Claudia gym flashed before my eyes. “With this amount, I can easily gain a breakthrough to reach level 2,” I grumbled to myself
But sadly I need to complete my 2 years here in school before going to the Yellow River Academy. ．𝗻𝐞𝘁
Now that precious opportunity in the wilderness has been taken away by me. That wilderness doesn’t pique my curiosity anymore. I should travel to other places to explore more opportunities.
The more I think about it, the more it looked good time. Otherwise, I have to spend the remaining two years in boredom.
After gaining some clarity in my thoughts, I thought about visiting the Claudia gym.
Suddenly, realization dawned upon me.
“I almost forgot about the pressing issue,” I smacked my forehead.
How to kill the former headmaster collin?
My eyes gleamed with a cold glint. I assume he had already lost contact with his subordinates. I don’t know what will he do next.
Will he send more powerful wizards to kill me? or Will he do it himself?
Various thoughts come to mind.
In the end, I came to a good conclusion. I’m going to inform Mr John Meyers.
I began to type the text. I omitted the killing of the subordinates. After typing the text, I sent the message to him.
I only told him that, I’m being followed by unknown wizards. So I made an immediate request to help me.
I hope Mr John Meyers will do something after reading the message. Then I slowly began to sleep.
…
Pent luxurious hotel,
Collin Sanders has received some information from his contacts. When he read that, his face revealed a strange expression. “Died?” He said to himself.
Through his contacts, he found that his subordinates had entered the wilderness. It’s been more than two days now. But there is information from them.
None of them exited the wilderness.
Which made him think of only a conclusion. His subordinates were killed. Collin’s expression has changed drastically. His face becomes distorted.
His subordinates were not ordinary wizards. They are elites. With one level-3 wizard and four level-2 wizards, this number is enough to shake small and medium forces around here.
But they died unknowingly inside the wilderness, which left Collin with no face. “This is all because of the brat,” he cursed at Vincent Carey at this moment.
Suddenly, Collin’s expression froze. His hands and feet began to tremble in fear. “I crossed the deadline,” he muttered to himself in fear.
Collin was extremely scared. He remembered the deadline set by his higher-ups. A cold shiver went down his spine. If Vincent Carey was not killed, he will die.
Now that his subordinates were gone, he don’t know what happened to that brat.
In confusion, he turned back. His pupil constructs upon seeing a stranger all of a sudden in his room. Looking at the dark robe, he understood immediately. “It’s over,” he closed his eyes and waited for death.
Thud
The next second, a cold corpse dropped to the ground. Collin Sanders was killed in a blink of an eye.
Looking at the cold corpse, the dark silhouette sneered, “Waste.”
Then the dark silhouette turned the cold corpse into ashes and then disappeared from the house.
From now on, no one will know what happened to Collin Sanders except one organisation in the world.
