(From MC’s perspective)
The airboat magic artifact is moving toward the destination high above the clouds. And I have been patiently listening to the details about the weapon palace.
“There are several halls inside the weapon palace. Weapon wizards may join whichever hall they are suitable to,” John Meyers said in a calm tone.
Then he tried to recall something. A quick glint flashed in his eyes.
Looking at Vincent, he added further, “When it comes to the beast academy. There are many categories. Such as Beast powers, Beast transformation magic, and most importantly bloodline wizards.”
After saying that he realized it was too early to reveal some information.
On the other hand, I maintained calmness outwards but my heart set off storms. Why does this beast academy sound more powerful than the weapon palace?
Thinking about beast powers. I vaguely remember some news. A few years ago, when I was little. There was some rumor going around the school.
About a news circulating online, talking about a newly awakened wizard who awakened some ancient beastly power in the ceremony. But those rumors died very quickly.
If not for the beast academy discussion right now, I wouldn’t have recalled it either. Ancient beastly power uh? A curiosity rose in my heart.
“Ahem, elder. Can you tell me about the strongest wizards in those academies,” I asked out of curiosity.
Whereas Elder John shook his head in denial. He doesn’t want Vincent to get a hit right now. Some things should be explored gradually.
If he reveals some truth, it might scare him away. Sub-taboo wizards are rare. But Vincent is not the only one in the Capital City with that power. There are other gifted seeds in the capital.
While sipping tea, he calmly replied, “Vincent it’s okay to get excited. But you should focus on the special program right now. You might find more power magic users than yourself there.”
A frown appeared on my face but I quickly recovered. I wasn’t surprised by his answer. I see that Elder John doesn’t want to discuss something.
Then I decided to meditate for some time. Because it’s going to be a long journey. I heard from him that it will take a week to reach the Capital.
To think even for high-end artifacts it will take a week-long journey. I couldn’t help but feel amazed by our Country’s land size. It is really big.
Then after talking to him for a few more minutes. I walked inside the small room. A next-second look of disbelief appeared on my face.
“Looks like I have underestimated the artifact again,” I grumbled. The space inside the room is really large. There were a couple of rooms. I randomly picked one of the rooms and entered inside.
After entering inside, I looked around. This is one small narrow room. But it is enough for one person to move around. Then I sat cross-legged and began to sort out my thoughts.
I believe in a few days my core formation will have risen further. So it’s better to start meditating right now.
Then I closed my eyes and started to run the gravity ark method. The mana around the room is a little bit higher than my surroundings. So I felt no problem attracting gray mana particles.
The gray particles began to enter my body and I started to circulate those energies according to the gravity ark method.
Finally, after one circulation, the thick minute energy settled down inside my sacred mana core.
Then I repeated the process.
Time passed in a blink of an eye,
6 days later,
I opened my eyes. Apart from doing continuous meditation, I have never gone out. Fortunately, there was no trouble along the way. Otherwise, the practice would have been hindered.
Then I shifted my attention to the communication watch. Seeing the number of my practice days, I twitched. But still, there is one more day to reach the academy.
Finally, I sensed the beaming energy inside my body. Looks like my physique got strengthened again. Realizing that my lips curved into a gentle arc.
Now it’s time to check my status panel. .
“System, show my status panel,” Then I said to the system.
[Ding! The Host’s command is recognized.]
[Ding! Level-Up System, 1.1 is ready.]

[Title: Lord of the Gregor Mansion.]
[Storage space items: The Gregor Mansion, Magic artifact, herbs, potions and spell books…etc.., ]
A wide status panel appeared in front of my eyes. Then I started to observe every detail one by one.
10 minutes later,
I exhaled in relief. As I expected, I gained another improvement. My few days of practice didn’t go in vain. My Constitution reached the limit along with my mental power.
No wonder, I felt a sudden surge of energy in my body. The sacred gravity physique reached 15%. Which is also a noteworthy improvement.
As long as l get the resources like meteor rock. The improvement will be much faster. But this improvement is good anyway. If I improve faster, it will raise a lot of eyebrows.
Nobody has seen people with mediocre talent break through fast. So I should take one step at a time.
Then my gaze fell on the three gravity spells. Actually, in my level 2, I can practice three more spells. But those gravity spells can only be obtained after joining the academy.
Thinking about it, my eyes gleamed with a twinkle. I wonder if there was any gravity wizard in the academy before?
If it’s then it will be useful to practice. Then shaking my head, I finally glance at the Gregor mansion.
This mansion is going to be a huge support for me apart from the system. There are still some functions that are unattainable at my current level.
The Gregor mansion’s existence itself is a miracle to me. I can’t compare it to high-end artifacts. Because the Gregor mansion is a world in itself. On top of it, there is also the function of time magic.
The person who created the mansion might be a user of space magic or time magic. Which looked scary either way. Is there a way to fight wizards with such extremely taboo powers?
I hope there are no such wizards in the modern day.
Beep!
Alarm!
[Ding! Warning Warning Warning]
When I was lost in thought, I heard a continuous alarming sound. I immediately got up from my seat and went outside.
But the next thing I saw shocked me to the core.
“Insect tide!”
I heard the words of Elder John.
There is a sea of black clouds moving toward us. The enormous clouds give me heart palpitations. How are we supposed to pass through it?
The next moment, I walked up to Elder John.
John Meyers frowned. He didn’t get scared by the insect tide. He has seen numerous clouds like that. What he wants to verify is whether it’s natural or any wizard behind it.
His expression turned solemn. He continues to observe the small details of black clouds coming in their direction. Does he want to see what kind of insect species this is?
When his eyes finally spotted the tiny species with one eye and sharp teeth. His heart skips a beat. He has seen this species somewhere.
When he tries to recall.
The black clouds suddenly stopped for a moment.
At the same time, John Meyers’ expression changes drastically.
“,” I uttered in surprise.
Hearing the foul words from Elder John, I’m a bit surprised. What happened to the calm and composed Elder? Then again, I noticed a strange phenomenon.
The whole black cloud stayed still. The next second, I felt goosebumps all over my body. What happened? This looked unnatural. Like someone had stopped the time.
“Ge….Ge…Ge….”
All of a sudden, creepy laughter came from the black clouds.
“Wizard?” I raised my eyebrows in surprise.
“Insect old man,” John Meyers blurted out in surprise. This time there is no calmness on their face.
Instead, a small fear flashed in his eyes. Then he realized the presence of Vincent Carey.
He then turned towards him and said, “Vincent, you go back to your room. This person is from the dark league. I’ll stop him somehow.”
“What?”
“Dark league?”
My expression turned solemn. Looks like their organization has sent some heavyweight this time to intercept.
To think the dark organization still hasn’t given up. My expression turned gloomy. Then I immediately rushed to the room. I have a strong intuition that the enemy might be a level-6 wizard.
Thinking about it my expression darkened.
