Magical Academy: Rise of the Supreme Magic Craftsman

Chapter 232 - Northern Continent ( Part 2 )

Wallace made arrangements with Ace and Avalon to take care of this base while he will accompany Yumi's group at the northern continent.

As he was planning to let Yumi know, a familiar sound came in. It was the notification from the Pathfinder...

'New mission?'

He quickly checked and confirmed his thoughts.

[ Let's stick to the plan and learn more things.

Mission: Find clues about creating 7th Generation Mana Artifacts

Mission Reward: Arcana, Zen Coins, Mystery Box x3

Clue: The Map ]

"This..."

Wallace thought for a while as he remembers the map of the northern continent given to him before.

He immediately realized what the Pathfinder wanted and asked Avalon to connect him with Veda. He wanted to make some things clear.

[ Yes? ] 

Veda quickly took over the floating metal ball's speaker and light. 

"Do you have information about the 6th Gen Mana Artifacts?"

[ The Spirit Forging Magic? ] 

"Yes... So its really the 6th Gen, huh... Were all countries aware of it?"

[ Yes. They just have different names for it. But your four allied countries call it as Spirit Forging Magic. The other four call it Zero Creation Magic. ]

Wallace did not bother to ask why was that the case but instead asked a different question. 

"How about the 7th Gen Mana Artifacts? I mean, do you have clues about that?"

[ I'm not sure. But there's a country making huge progress in their research. I'm not going to tell you more. Right, consider enhancing the spaceships with mana. Mana should work in outer space so take as many Mana Stones as you can to power them up. It would be your best advantage when they arrived. ] 

"Yes, I'm planning that. I'm even working to place powerful mana artifacts in the Mech Frames that we'll be creating."

[ Oh... Good idea. Make them as powerful as you can. Quality over quantity. Alright? ] 

"Yeah... Thanks for your help..."

Wallace could only say before Veda quickly disappeared.

This A.I. was really something. If Wallace was not aware that Veda was an A.I. created for medical purposes, he would never realize that it was not a real person.

'Wait, maybe Veda was like that as it deals with treating patients.'

Anyway, he set aside his thoughts about Veda as he was now ready to go to the northern continent.

***

Yumi was satisfied that she learned some things about the northern continent. She can brag about it once she found an opportunity. She even received an incomplete map of the place. This would lessen their troubles in finding her cousin's location. 

"Grandma Thea, I'll leave everything else to you... You're the only person I know that I can entrust these notes without any worry."

"Sigh~ I'm old already... Shouldn't you be handling that?"

"I have something else to do. It may even be related to those notes. Anyway, the one who gave me that will also come together with my team on the northern continent. I think that it was a good chance to make things clear... and I also wanted to see it for myself."

The old lady sighed as she accepted the notes and replied.

"Fine... Do what you think is right... I'll do my best to put this into good use..."

"Thank you, grandma Thea!"

Right now, she only has to wait for Wallace and they can immediately move out. 

Of course, she didn't forget to stay with the kids for a couple more hours before she left and contacted her group. 

It should be about time that Avalon or Wallace would inform her about his decision. 

'All our equipment and ride were ready... Just hold on, cousin...' 

It didn't take long before she received a call from Wallace. 

"I'm good. I'm sorry for taking so long. When can we travel?" 

"Finally! We leave as soon as possible. Let me just inform my team."

"Cool... By the way, how many members do you have aside from me?"

"There's Hannah, my childhood friend, Clint from the Congress, and Elaine, she's an instructor at your academy..."

"Oh? Why would she get involved?"

"Didn't I tell you before? She's the one who used blood magic to locate your headmaster's location..."

"Now that you said it..."

Wallace indeed remembered her mentioning that bit of information but he set that aside since he thought that it wasn't that important during that time.

'A magic that can locate someone else through blood, huh...'

It was very interesting magic and Wallace was curious about how it can be done...

Wallace suddenly remembered the Heart's Grimoire's ability that was also related to blood magic. 

He heard and watched a lot of news about the terrorist attack. His classmates were even talking about it most of the time when he attended the school. 

"Alright, where should we meet?" 

"I'll send you the address..." 

Yumi sent him an address where the other members were also aware of.

The location was one of the NMTI's owned villa outside the Tanza City. It was normally being used as a base for agents working at the organization. 

It wasn't that far but Yumi expected Wallace would need at least 30 minutes to arrive there.

It was seven in the evening when everyone aside from him arrived at the villa.

"Where's the guy you mentioned?"

Hannah asked after noticing that Wallace still hasn't arrived.

She was now wearing her black battlesuit that covers her body except the head. She looks battle-ready...

"He should be here any time from now..."

Wallace didn't use his Void Phase to appear inside the villa and he opted to arrive a little far from the location. 

The truth was that Wallace already arrived here for some time. 

'This seems to be a better vacation house than mine.'

Wallace commented as he saw a large swimming pool and noticed many recreation areas around the place...

"So... This is supposed to be a fast aircraft to bring us to the northern continent, huh..."

Wallace was informed that Yumi will work with the transportation.

He doesn't have complaints about the aircraft as long as they will be brought to the northern continent without any troubles. 

The Aircraft doesn't seem to be a mass-produced one as every part that was used exudes with power. 

Wallace decided to show up and arrived at the gate of the villa to inform everyone about his presence. 

"What took you so long?"

"I got lost. Anyway, do we ride that thing?" Wallace pointed at the parked aircraft near the villa.

"Yes... Don't be scared..."

"I'm ok with that. I'm just curious..."

He said as he glanced at the large arrow-like aircraft that seems to be a carrier of weapons instead. 

Wallace also greeted the other members. The cheerful Hannah, the silent Clint, and the responsible-looking lady, Elaine.

"Instructor, I didn't think we'll meet again like this..."

Wallace smiled as he greeted the lady.

"Me too... This is very important for me..."

"I understand..."

"Wait, I should be asking why you are here..."

Elaine immediately realized the situation. 

"Oh... I'm quite close with Yumi so she let me join her team..."

Elaine was doubtful but it doesn't seem to be important at the moment so she just let it be.

"Then, that would be for the best..."

Yumi grinned seeing that everyone got to know each other. 

It was now time to plan their actions once they arrived at the northern continent. 

Their estimated time of arrival will suffice for that, so she quickly invited everyone to board the aircraft and discuss some things.
