(From MC’s perspective)
Battle Tower,
Seeing that bull monsters surrounded me. My eyes gleamed with a twinkle. This is the right opportunity to use my new spell model.
I pointed my finger at the incoming monster.
“Gravity Blast,” I uttered.
The next second, a wisp of gravity magic released from my finger and shot at the monster at breakneck speed.
When the magic attack comes in contact with the monster. The monster became stiff. It froze in the same spot like a motionless statue.
Boom!
After a couple of seconds, the monster’s body blasted into pieces. The gravitational force penetrated inside the monster and destroyed it in a blink of an eye.
I observed the whole process without blinking for a second. I see there is a difference between Gravity Field Spell and Gravity Blast Spell.
The Gravity Field Spell is a control-type attack and it’s based on range. Whereas Gravity Blast is a pure attack-type spell. Unlike the previous spell, there is no range restriction.
I can use this spell to attack monsters separately. After figuring it out, I smiled in satisfaction.
Because I think the Gravity Blast spell would consume less mana than Gravity Field Spell.
Also, I will have better control over my gravity magic. I don’t have to worry about miscalculations. The recent upgrade in gravity force can be utilized fully in this new spell.
The more the force in gravity magic the more the blast power would be. After reading this, a quick glint flashed in my eyes.
After retracting the thoughts, I started to eliminate other monsters.
“Gravity Blast”
“Gravity Blast,”
A continuous magic spell falls on the raging monsters. One by one all the monsters turned stiff and burst into pieces the next second.
Several minutes later,
[Floor 20: Cleared]
[Current Floor count: 20]
[Next Challenge starts in 5 seconds!]
The next pop-up appeared before my eyes. Seeing that a hint of expectation rose in my heart. I know the next monster will be a different one.
And I’m itching to use the new Gravity Blast spell against all monsters. As I expected earlier, the Gravity Blast is suitable for using powerful gravitational force.
There are no constraints whatsoever. It is a pure destructive spell tailor-made for Gravity Wizards like me.
Rest I have to practice the other three level-2 spells before getting proficient in it.
[Challenge Starts!]
[Floor No:21]
I’m observing my surroundings. The landscape setting didn’t change. I wonder what type of monster is going to come. 𝚍ｎ𝚘ｖ𝚕.𝚝
“Ssshhh”
A loud hissing sound reached my ears. My eyes lit up with surprise. This one monster can be found everywhere in the wilderness.
I can’t forget the time when I fled from the snake monster in fear.
Swish!
[Dotted Snake- 2nd Order monster]
Seeing that, I became ready. I know where the weakness of this monster lies. But considering my strength now, I feel there is no need for using the tactic.
I will blast away this monster instead.
“Gravity Blast,” I raised my finger and cast the spell at the monster.
The snake monster instantly felt a threat. Feeling the horrible power coming towards it. The monster wants to slip away. But it is too late to escape now.
The magic attack lands on it within seconds. The snake monster turned stiff and in the next second it broke into pieces like glass.
Seeing that, my lips curved into the arc. I don’t know why? But I’m enjoying this power. I don’t know whether there will be a reward for reaching the top ranks.
After coming out of the tower, I’ll ask my senior. She knows the ins and outs. If she can provide me with mana stones, it would be better.
…
Outside,
LEADERBOARD
[No.9 – Sub-Taboo Hall]
[N0.10- Mechanical Hall]
[N9.11 – Research Hall]
[No.12 – Medical Hall]
The ranking of Mechanical Hall suddenly changed and it went down to No. 9th position.
This immediate change didn’t go unnoticed by many gathered at the Tower.
“Damn it,” Stuart cursed out loud. As feared earlier, their Hall ranking went down one number.
This will hit their allocation of resources. The Mechanical Wizard Stuart’s eyes’ burst out with a cold glint.
“Sub- Taboo Wizards are no joke!”
Stuart heard his friend sigh to himself. Hearing that, he realized his anger was unnecessary.
Sub- Taboo wizards are known for their powerful magic. Though they are not destructive as Taboo wizards. But still, they can handle other streams of wizards easily.
After calming down his anger. Stuart looked at the LeaderBoard. This time his thoughts became clear. He realized that floor number 20 was cleared by the Sub-taboo wizard.
But the information about the wizard appears only when he walks out the tower.
Then taking one glance at the leaderboard. He decided to spend some time in practice and tinkering with his metallic arm.
Soon the wizards from the mechanical hall vacated the spot.
After several minutes, the skinny wizard ghost from the transformation hall decided to leave as well. He saw Stuart leaving earlier.
Stuart was not hot-headed this time. If it was any other Hall, he might confront without preparation.
But when it comes to Sub-Taboo Hall. He also agrees with Stuart’s approach.
Anyway, the news has been spreading wildly. There will be some show sooner or later.
Then after taking a glance at the LeaderBoard. He too left the Battle Tower along with his Hall members.
When the two wizard Halls left. Carolina Slate is busy replying to text messages. Currently, she is the one active in Sub- Taboo Hall.
All other bigwigs are out of the city right now. As far as she knows the core house members are not in the country at all.
So she is the one managing the office stuff in the end.
“Sigh”
“Gravity Magic is terrible as the record says,” Carolina Slate blinked her big eyes looking at the leaderboard.
Everyone knows about the gravity ancestor once who shone brightly in his era. But after that, there is no second gravity wizard in the academy.
After this performance, there will be huge expectations for Vincent. And Carolina believes that the academy won’t spare any effort to train him.
Then her gaze fell on a ranking of other Halls as well.
[Outer House Ranking]
1. Taboo- Hall
2. Bloodline Hall
3. Elemental Hall
4. Weapon Hall
5. Power Hall
6. Unique Hall
7. Beast Hall
8. Transformation Hall
~ 9. Sub-Taboo Hall
10. Mechanical Hall
11. Research Hall
12. Medical Hall
Carolina sees that Transformation Hall ranked 8th in position. Then she looked at the other two halls ranked at 7th & 6th position. It will be a matter of time before Vincent surpasses them.
In her opinion, only the top 5 ranks are challenging to Sub-Taboo wizards like them. But she doesn’t know how long Vincent can last.
The classes for the special program were yet to start. So she didn’t know her strength and weakness of Vincent. If there is a duel video, she can use that to access it.
But here her mind is blank right now.
Outside,
The media post from mechanical wizards garnered more attention than they had expected. Especially when the wizards from the mechanical hall went out to learn about the new Sub-Taboo wizard.
Somehow they find out the newcomer’s identity.
[Vincent Carey: Level-2 Gravity Wizard. Sub – Taboo Hall]
When they came to know about this the information spread like a wildfire.
“Gravity Wizard”
“Are you kidding me?”
Stuart exclaimed in surprise, looking at the person who broke the news to him. Who doesn’t know about the Gravity Ancestor?
The Gravity Ancestor is being revered not only by Sub-Taboo wizards. But also revered by the rest of the academy.
Gravity Ancestor used to be the top powerhouse in history and he was extremely famous. Even today he was considered a powerful presence among many ancestors of the academy.
It took some seconds for him to digest the fact. After that he let out a long sigh, now he understood the true strength of the newcomer.
He looked at his metallic arm. He doesn’t know whether the metallic arc can withstand the power of gravity. His expression turned solemn.
Now that the post was already making rounds. There is no point in retreating anymore.
Considering his haste actions earlier, a wry smile appeared on his face.
People were now going to look forward to their duel more. Shaking his head, he decided to practice more.
Even the ghost wizard from the Transformation Hall was stunned in disbelief. He underestimated the newcomers this time.
At first, there was a Snowstorm wizard from Taboo- Hall and now there is a Gravity Wizard from Sub-Taboo Hall.
These two newcomers are alone to overwhelm other wizards. Then suddenly he thought about Stuart. An amusing smile appeared on his face.
Hereafter, it is not going to be about Stuart’s challenge post. Now everyone will be looking forward to seeing the infamous gravity magic in action.
Even for himself, a tinge of expectation rose in his heart. He believed that this would be the same case with other Halls.
Unknowingly, Stuart’s post will allow us to witness the amazing duel in the coming days.
But he didn’t consider whether the newcomer would accept the challenge post or not.
