Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

Chapter 182 Part 2: Vincent Vs Mathew

(From MC's Perspective)

In such a situation. My mind immediately went into action. If Frank has decided to target me, I guess it doesn't matter whether I accept or decline this challenge. He'll undoubtedly bother me later. Bowing down to him only increases his arrogance, and the next time he will hit me hard.

So my instinct tells me that I should defeat Mathew right now in front of everyone. Particularly the stranger in the white coat. I believe he has some background. Finally, I decided to take a step forward. But, before I could, the combat teacher confronted Mathew with words.

"Are you completely insane? He is only a recently awakened wizard. Select someone else, "In a harsh tone, Freeman chastised him. His words did not surprise anyone. It was something that was expected. But everyone was taken aback by Mathew's lack of reaction. He seemed to have made up his mind to fight Vincent Carey for a long time.

As time passed and there was no response from Mathew, Freeman's expression darkened. "What are you doing, Matthew?" Freeman inquired. This jerk seemed to be insulting him. This drama was taking place in front of the new headmaster in particular. He feels the need to cry.

The atmosphere is unusually quiet.

Mathew's demeanor raises suspicions among the students. It has something to do with Frank Lambert, 9/10. Frank still has a witty grin on his face. As if he is interested in seeing this great show that is taking place right in front of everyone's eyes.

Mathew, on the other hand, decided to speak up."Combat teacher, it's now up to Vincent Carey whether or not he accepts my challenge," he said. His words once again caught people off guard.

Immediately, everyone's attention was drawn to Vincent Carey.

Without minding everyone's gaze. I walked onto the combat stage and stood on the opposite side of Mathew Hunk.

There was no need to tell anyone because my actions made it clear that I was not going to back down.

"Gasp!"

Sudden exclamations erupt among the students. It's a sudden surprise from the newcomer this time. Why are newcomers so ferocious these days?

Even Freeman is taken aback. He thought Vincent's bravery was admirable. This fight isn't just between Senior student Mathew Hunk and Vincent Carey. These two had completely different magical abilities. Vincent, according to Freeman, had no idea. Vincent takes a step without realizing it. He's unsure whether he should let it go on.

Freeman looked at the person next to him for answers. Chester Nixon simply nodded to Freeman before turning his gaze to Vincent Carey. He learned a few things about the students from their conversations. As a result, his curiosity grew even stronger.

Stage of combat,

I looked Mathew in the eyes. His eyes are clearly irritated. He acted as if he didn't want to fight me at all. I suppose Frank might have told him to challenge me. My attention was drawn to Frank Lambert. My potential future adversary. Frank turned towards me, sensing my gaze, and responded with a wide grin.

Seeing that, I retracted my gaze and focused on the opponent. I gradually realized where it all began. My simple comments on Victoria and Frank's previous duel had sparked a hornet's nest. Without a doubt, Frank Lambert is to blame.

I had no idea this guy was so narrow-minded. I overheard a combat instructor's words while cursing at him. "Step back a little, I'm going to activate the protective shield," Freeman said, looking around. Hearing this, everyone cleared the way for the shield to activate.

Following that, a silver color screen began to rise from the edge of the combat stage, gradually forming a dome-like structure. From the outside, it appeared as if two people were standing opposite each other inside a silver colored dome cage. Everyone was aware of the situation. This shield is used to keep magical powers from falling outside.

Within the silver dome,

Seeing as the duel is about to begin in a few seconds. I chose to employ the probe function. But  out of nowhere I creeped out all of a sudden. As if something had infiltrated my secrets. What exactly is going on?

[Ding! The system detects new magic infiltrating the host.]

[Ding! Whether to prevent it or not, host. Choose: YES/NO]

In my mind, I hear a familiar sound. I concentrated my attention on it. After hearing the system's words, I said yes to the system.

[Ding! Command is received.]

[Ding! The command is being carried out. ]

.

.

[Ding! The spyware attempt was successfully blocked by the system.]

Everything happened in a matter of seconds. But after hearing the system's words, I realized that someone was attempting to probe me in the same way that I had probed others. This sudden realization gave me goosebumps all over.

My mind is racing to identify the perpetrators. I took a casual look around. If it had been students, I would have known a long time ago. But where did this new magic appear? The duel began before I could even get started. Mathew was smiling at me.

Seeing this, I pushed my current thoughts aside and returned my attention to the opponent. "System, look into Mathew Hunk's information." I gave the system instructions.

[Ding! Command is received.]

[Ding! The command is being carried out. ]

[Ding! Level-Up System]

[Status Panel]

[Target's Name – Mathew Hunk]

[Magic Power– Attack Weapon]

>> Bolt action rifle

[Mage Level – Level 1 Limiter]

[Weapon Core status- 18%]

[Mana Power - 300/400]

[Talent – Middle Bottom]

[Color – Pale Green]

[Strength – 20]

[Speed – 19]

[Stamina – 21]

[Vitality – 19]

[Soul Power – 20]

[Constitution – 18]

[Mental Power- 23]

[Mental Method - Rifle blueprint (Advanced Grade)]

[Spells – 2] >> 1. Bullet burst 2. Deep penetration.

In front of my eyes, a large status panel appeared. The first thing that came to mind as I went through his physical characteristics was how weak he was. His overall stats were mediocre. The only thing that gave him an advantage was his magic.

"Bolt action rifle," I mumbled under my breath.

This type of magical weapon is familiar to me. It is, in fact, a manual firearm. I examined his mental method and spells after realizing. Isn't it strange? Even the blueprint has evolved into a mental method. After seeing all of those movies and comics, I assumed that weapon wizards were distinct from regular wizards.

But I never considered that the distinction is due to mental method. The firearms industry had control over these weapon blueprints. My gut instinct tells me that they are also among the world's giants. After reviewing his status panel, my horizons have expanded even further.

Simultaneously, I realized Mathew created the bolt action rifle out of thin air. When I saw the black rifle in his hands, my expression tightened. His attributes were lacking, but his two spells were not. Frank Lambert's evil plan is now clear to me.

The danger is in those magical bullets. The first spell states that the magic bullet will burst after entering the opponent's body, causing fatal wounds. And his second spell is more dangerous than his first; it deals with bullet penetration. If Mathew uses the second spell to target fatal parts of the enemy. And his chances of inflicting a fatal wound will rise even further.

If it was a regular newcomer, he would almost certainly be paralyzed. Assume the newcomer suffers a fatal blow to his mana core region. An opponent's mana core will be completely damaged by a deep penetration spell.

How heinous! After realizing Frank's cruel calculation against me, a cold glint flashes in my eyes. I noticed Mathew loading his rifle with his magical bullets. He's clearly taking his time. In a matter of seconds, I devised a simple plan.

I then dashed at full speed towards Mathew. My speed stats outperform his by 13 points. So I'm hoping to cause him some trouble. Then I noticed something that made me smile.

My sudden burst of speed startled Mathew. Not only him, but also those watching from the outside, were taken aback. This is not the normal speed of a newly awakened being.

Outside,

Chester Nixon raised his eyebrows in surprise a minute ago.

He simply attempted to probe the new student who walked onto the stage. He couldn't, however, use his inspect magic on him. "What exactly is going on?" He reflected to himself. His level-3 magic was ineffective.

He decided to try again, but this time the silver dome engulfed the combat stage. As a result, he is unable to intervene at this time.

He remained calm in the face of a new situation. In particular, he is intrigued. He can inspect anything or anyone with a magic level lower than level 3. Because his magic defies any restrictions when it comes to probing others. Unfortunately, his talent was limited; otherwise, he would have had a promising future.

As a result, Chester Nixon's gaze was drawn to Vincent Carey. He squinted as he began to watch Vincent's movements.

Combat teacher Freeman cast a glance at him before focusing his attention on the duel.
