Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

Chapter 518 Part 24: Battle Tower Trial (Core House)

?

Outside,

When Vincent Carey is on the 42nd floor. The wizard students began to spread the news online. This time Vincent is competing with the talented level-5 wizards. 

But those who have cleared above the 40th floor are old students of the academy. Not many of them are new. 

Vincent's floor clearance rate was eye-catching.

Bloodline Hall,

Tony Burnett was staying close to the Sub-Taboo Hall. Since he had decided to target people around Vincent. He already bribed mission hall people to arrange some special missions for Carolina Slate.

The special missions are assigned to wizards who are capable of completing them. For example, there is a small swamp area located outside of the dragon city. 

Recently that place was infested with many plant monsters. It's necessary to bring down the number of plant monsters.

Otherwise, some mutation occurs or this is a good chance for wicked wizards to eye that place. They might conduct some experiments on the place.

Lots of problems in this country arise from these untreated places. The wicked wizards abandon their location after some experiments.

Later, some problems usually occur on sites like this. So swamp area cleaning is rated as an important mission.

He is aware of Carolina's awakened magic. Her vine magic can help her to clean these monsters. So the mission hall won't have any problem assigning a mission to her.

A cold glint flashes in his eyes,

"Vincent, you rejected my offer. Let me see if you will be cold-hearted in the end," He said to himself.

Sub-Taboo Hall,

Carolina as usual working on some office work. When she is looking at the screen. 

Beep~

Her watch lit up with a notification. When she saw the message was from the mission hall. She began to read the message.

"Special mission," She muttered to herself.

It's been some time since she received the special mission. The special missions are compulsory missions that you can't deny.

A complex glint flashes in her eyes. It's not that she doesn't want to go. Because she saw the content of the mission. Her magic powers work well against the plant monster.

There is a possibility to improve spellcasting as well. But she remembers Vincent's warning. Honestly, there are people after Vincent's life. 

But there is less possibility for someone to attack her. Because everyone is aware of Senior Gilbert. His name and presence alone were enough to deter hostile people.

After pondering, she eases down her beautiful eyebrows. She decides to leave for the mission.

Then she walked out of the Sub-Taboo Hall and headed to the mission hall to inquire about details. Not long after, one more person followed her.

He is none other than Henry Barlow. This person's appearance made Tony Burnett startled. 

"Why is he following her?"

"Is it for protection?" Tony asked himself.

"No," Then he shook his head in denial. He recognized a person named Henry Barlow. Because he was the one who had challenged Vincent to a duel before him.

Suddenly, he realized something. 

Vincent not only rejected his duel request. But also requests of others. Seeing the behavior of Henry Barlow, he is certain that person is not following her for a good reason.

"He might be thinking like me. Does he want to target her as well," Tony said in his heart.

If it's true then he doesn't mind using him as a scapegoat.

Several minutes later,

Carolina confirmed her special mission. The mission has to be completed within 3 days. After knowing that, she doesn't want to delay. She decides to leave after making the necessary preparations. I think you should take a look at

Time passed,

An hour later,

Carolina left the academy for a special mission in a monster carriage. The carriage will drop her at the mission area. 

But for that journey, they have to go through the dragon city.

Not long after she left the academy. 

Henry Barlow left in a magic aircraft. Earlier, he didn't plan on doing something like this. But Mike Curtis from the Taboo Hall is making him do this. 

Besides, he also promised him. So he can't go back now even if he wants.

Shortly after, 

Another aircraft left the academy space. Tony Burnett was in the aircraft. Instead of following, he decided to go to the mission area first.

The aircraft travels faster than the flying monster. But it's not easy to afford. It's expensive to travel in it. 

But Tony doesn't have to think about this matter. Because he is hatching an evil plan in his mind. Ever since he saw the appearance of Henry Barlow.

He decided to follow the risk-free method. Tony has made up his mind to use Henry as a scale goat for his plan. Earlier he just wanted to beat and teach some lessons to Carolina Slate.

Now that the suitable scapegoat appears. He decided to do a lot more. Since his life is going to end anyway. He doesn't mind killing a few people before that. 

Once Carolina Slate is dead. This would affect the mind of Vincent Carey. Then he would accept the challenges on his way.

Especially he won't miss the chance to seek revenge. If he challenges during that time, then Vincent would most probably accept his challenge. 

A cruel glint flashes in his eyes. This might be a redemption option for him. Earlier, he didn't have an ounce of confidence to beat Vincent. 

If Vincent was not in the right state of mind then anything could be possible. Tony's heart was rekindled with hope.

He wants to kill Vincent without using the forbidden potion. If it happens, then he might regain his lost position in the Bloodline Hall.

...

Boom~

The repulsive force made the monster fall to the ground.

"System, probe the monster in front of me," I said to the system.
