A wide status panel appeared in front of my eyes. Looking at the overall improvement in attributes, I feel good. But still, I’m curious about Brent Dale.
Everyone thinks he is scarier than Danny Quinn. Even the Chairman personally visited me to advise me. My eyes gleamed with a twinkle.
Looks like things are not that easy. Danny Quinn is a rare spiritual wizard. Which slightly caught me off guard at that time. So there is a possibility that Brent Dale might be a rare magic user.
Then retracting those thoughts, I got up from the ground.
A few minutes later,
I came to know that John Meyers has arrived. After knowing that, I quickly walked downstairs to meet him.
On the other hand, a middle-aged man is greeted inside the home by Vincent’s parents.
John Meyers slightly nodded at them before inquiring about Vincent Carey.
Then a couple of seconds later, he sees that walking downstairs.
“Kid, how have you been?” John Meyers asked with a smile. He too watched the competition. To be honest, he was impressed by Vincent’s progression. ｂ𝚍𝚘𝚟ｌ.ｎｔ
The wizard students among the top 5 are not mediocre in any standard.
“Hmmm,” I raised my eyebrows in surprise when I heard his calm tone. I thought the appearance of the level-5 wizard is a pretty serious matter.
Then without showing many expressions, I replied, “Elder John, I’m doing great. But I don’t know the exact timing of academy enrollment.”
At the same time, all of us sat on the sofa. My good brother is not available today. He went back to his academy in the morning.
John Meyers wasn’t surprised by the question. He can see that Little StarGate School has nothing to teach Vincent Carey anymore. That kid only widens his horizons after joining the academy.
So he answered calmly, “Don’t worry, I’ll take you with me after the competition.”
His voice is not loud. But it was still heard by Vincent’s parents.
Father Brad Carey said, “Lord..?”
Before he could finish his words, John Meyers raised his hands to stop him.
He said, “Vincent will officially join our academy after the competition. So you can address me as the elder.”
A quick realization dawned upon Brad Carey’s face. But Mother Lila feels a little anxious.
She raised a question, “isn’t it too soon for her son Vincent to join the academy?”
It’s been only a year since Vincent awakened his magic powers. So she was surprised by Elder John’s words.
Elder John doesn’t feel offended by her question. He politely answered, “There is going to be a special class for seed wizards. And Vincent Carey is one of them.”
“Furthermore, Vincent is ranked no. 2 in his class. So the school has nothing to teach. Vincent should go with me after the competition.”
“Oh,” Mother Lila doesn’t want to say.
John Meyers sighed inwardly. Apart from special classes, there is one more reason for his urgency. It’s the intervention of the dark league.
They were clearly after Vincent Carey’s life. At first, he thought they gave up after their unsuccessful mission a couple of months ago.
But after interrogation the level-5 wizard named Carlos. He collected a lot of shocking news from his mouth. According to Carlos, there was one more level-5 wizard who came before him to kill Vincent.
But that person mysteriously died. Which led another dark league member Carlos to pick up the mission. What is more shocking to him is that the mission to kill was directed by the dark league headquarters.
The trouble is more serious than he thought. To think they gave much importance to sub-taboo wizards is worth pondering. And they didn’t even hesitate to sacrifice level-5 wizards for that.
For a moment his face darkened.
On the other hand, I know it will take some time for my parents to digest the news. But it can’t be helped. I wonder what would be their reaction if they know about the recent assassination attempts on me.
Something it’s better to hide in your heart. While I’m pondering, I noticed a complex expression of Elder John.
“Elder, what’s wrong?” I asked.
Hearing that, John Meyers retracted his thoughts and said, “Oh, it’s nothing. Then, Vincent, I would like to talk to you alone for a moment.”
Hearing that father Brad and mother Lila decided to leave. Then I took Elder John to my room. I can’t wait to ask about the level-5 wizard. It’s troubling me inside.
Creak
After entering inside, John Meyers cast some barriers around us. Looking at the strange spell enveloping the room. I wonder what the name of the spell is.
Seeing the look of longing in Vincent’s eyes, John Meyers chuckled.
After casting a spell, John Meyers said, “Alright, no one will hear our conversation now.”
Then his expression turned serious. “Vincent, you are in big trouble.”
Hearing that my heart skips a beat. I asked, “Elder, what do you mean?”
Don’t tell me the academy is powerless in front of the dark league.
John Meyers sighed and said, “The person who is stalking you is a level-5 wizard from the dark league.”
I wasn’t surprised by the information. Because I already knew about it. But to not be suspicious, I showed a look of bewilderment outside.
“How come?”
“Didn’t they stop their activities?” I raised the question in a trembling tone.
Seeing that information is too huge for Vincent Carey, John Meyers regretted it a little. He understands Vincent is just a school kid.
He immediately assured him by saying, “Don’t worry Vincent. Everything will be alright once you join the academy.”
“But for the time being, we need to be careful”
“Now the rogue wizard was caught by me. And it will be difficult to predict the dark league’s reaction to this. That’s why I decided to take you to the academy right after the competition.”
Hearing that, I sneered, “It’s just a level-5 wizard. Why is he overreacting to that?”
But outside I kept my face neutral. Perhaps I feel confident about my leap-frog magic spell powers. If it were an ordinary-level wizard, the rank 5 existence itself is a nightmare one.
Then shaking my head, I politely answered, “Then I trouble you Elder for my safety.”
John Meyers sighed in relief. Fortunately, the kid quickly adjusted his mentality. Which is pretty good. So I don’t have to worry about his special class environment.
Then he immediately shifted his attention back to the competition.
“Vincent, what about the final duel?”
“Do you need any help?”
John Meyers asked to divert Vincent’s attention from the topic. He doesn’t want to report the same mistake again.
It’s too early for Vincent to know certain things. Only after advancing further in wizard ranks, do you come across necessary details.
“Help?” A quick glint flashed in my eyes.
Then I told him about my mental injury.
At first, his reaction was calm but when he heard about the mental injury. His face turned ugly. How come he didn’t notice this situation before?
He thought it was a normal concussion.
Without waiting further, he immediately takes out a level-5 potion from his storage bracelet.
Seeing the green color potion bottle my eyes gleamed with a twinkle. My last worry about the final duel is immediately swept away. Now I can completely focus on the final duel preparation.
John Meyers said, “This potion is a bit powerful for lower ranks. But you can consume diluted liquid from it.”.
Hearing that I nodded. Then I drank the diluted potion a few minutes later. The potion immediately worked wonders. It quickly healed the leftover injury in my mind. On top of it, I also feel an improvement in my mental power.
On the other hand, John Meyers’ expression frowned. From the very beginning of his arrival here, he tried to sense Vincent’s current level.
But his attempts failed. Which made him think about certain magic artifacts. To think this kid has a magic artifact in his hands. It’s not anything but a spell of disaster.
But it will be fine when Vincent reaches level 2 or level 3 in future. He decided to warn him once he woke up.
