Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

Chapter 280: Wicked plan of Quinn family

(From MCʼs perspective)

Night,

I walked out of my house during the night. I have one more day before the final duel. Before that, I have to fully gauge my strength. To avoid getting noticed, I wore a mask to cover my face.

Right after reaching the school. I immediately booked an air car for travel. It has been some time since I traveled to the venen city.

After booking, I waited for the air cab to arrive. Fortunately, there was no suspicious activity around my house. I feel it has something to do with Elder John.

Then a few minutes later, the air cab landed in front of me. Without wasting any more time, I hopped inside the car and told the cab driver about the destination.

Swish!

The air cab slowly rose from the ground and started to move towards the destination. I saw a change in the expression of the can driver. I knew he was most surprised to see me wearing a mask.

But I have no other choice. Because of the live broadcast of the duel. My popularity skyrocketed. I bet everyone inside the red city is familiar with my name at this point.

Shaking my head, I began to look forward to the wilderness trip. It will take two hours to reach the city. Should I go to the adventure union?

Then I removed these thoughts from my head. Suddenly, I recalled Elder Johnʼs advice. Meteor country uh? A quick glint flashed in my eyes. My curiosity about the meteor country has increased further.

But itʼs a pity. From Elder Johnʼs words, I see that the meteor country is an enemy country of mine. If not, I would like to visit that country in the future.

In my current situation, itʼs dangerous to think like that. But in the future, I believe there will be some opportunities. Then retracting the thoughts, I closed my eyes.

...

Quinn family,

Inside the huge luxurious mansion, the young master of the family is getting treatment.

”How is my son?” Joe Quinn asked the healer.

The healer in the sixties moved his old wrinkled face to answer, ”I have given him vitality dew from grade- 8 magical herb the white lotus.”

”His vitality looks good.”

Joe Quinnʼs expression eases down a little. He knows about the relic white lotus. Which is a strong magic herb. The vitality dew from the lotus can cure residual injuries left in the body.

Now his son has to rest for a few weeks before getting back on his feet. Thinking about it, Joe Quinnʼs face turned solemn for a moment. He knew how strong the vitality dew is but still, his son has to be bedridden for a few weeks.

An uncontrolled rage swelled up in his heart. But in the presence of an old healer, he controlled his emotions. When the old healer left the mansion, Joe Quinn changed his demeanor back to his usual self.

At the same time his assistant, the old veteran wizard, walked into the room. He looked at the young master resting in the bed before turning towards the boss.

Joe Quinn felt the presence of his assistant. But he remained silent. Then after some moment, he called out the maid. An old lady stepped inside the room.

”Lord,” She politely greeted Joe Quinn.

”Watch over my son,” After saying that he left the room.

The old assistant followed him behind without making any noise.

Right after leaving the room, Joe Quinnʼs face turned ugly. ”Hateful,” he gritted his teeth in anger.

Seeing the expression of Joe Quinn, the old veteran said, ”Boss?” The old veteran wanted to console them but stopped mid-way.

Joe Quinn calmed down his raging heart for a moment before saying, ”That pig must be staring at us right now. If something happens to that kid, then our Quinn family will become the no.1 suspect.”

The old veteranʼs eyes lit up with light. ”Boss, itʼs true that itʼs not wise to touch that kid right now. But what about his parents?”

”Parents?” Joe Quinnʼs expression improved a little.

Hearing that, the old veteran quickly added, ”Boss, that kidʼs parents were just low-level healers working in a green leaf hospital.”

Hearing the familiar name, Joe Quinn recalled something.

”The green leaf hospital is not a small organization,” Joe Quinn said in a solemn tone.

Joe Quinn knows that green leaf hospital is one of the giants in the medical field. So he became a little hesitant.

Seeing the troubled expression of the boss, the old veteran smiled and said, ”Boss, both of his parents were just level-3 healers.”

”There are thousands of level-3 healers working in that organization all around the world. So the disappearance of these two wonʼt affect the green leaf hospital much.”

Joe Quinnʼs eyes lit up with light. He slapped his thigh hard with realization. ”Thatʼs it,” he uttered.

”But we have to do it under the nose of that pig Benjamin,” he added further.

Hearing that the old veteran nodded and answered, ”Donʼt worry boss. Iʼll arrange some pawns to do it.”

Finally, a small smile appeared on Joe Quinnʼs face. Then he walked back to his bedroom.

Then the old veteran walked out of the huge mansion. After some minutes, he hopped inside the air car to visit an old tavern in their neighborhood.

After exiting the air cab, the old veteran slightly disguised his appearance to avoid attention.

A few minutes later he met with the tavern boss. The tavern boss is a fat middle-aged man with a bald head.

The old veteran gave him the task mission.

”100,000 alliance points/head,” the tavern bossʼs heart set off storms. He immediately closed his communication watch after viewing it. But his fat body couldnʼt stop trembling.

He knew the body of a 4th order monster probably wouldnʼt cost this much. But the tavern boss followed the rules and didnʼt dare to inquire about the task.

Seeing the acceptance of the task, the old veteran smiled in response. Then he said as an extra warning, ”The task needs to be completed no matter at what cost.”

The tavern boss nodded with a solemn face. He knows such a high-profile mission requires a 100% success rate. Since the target of the mission is two level-3 wizards.

He is not afraid of anything. The old veteran then quickly left the tavern. No one would have thought that a normal looking tavern is the secret workplace for rogue wizards.

The tavern boss instructed his subordinate to look after the tavern. Then he walked back to his room to upload the task on-site.

Creak

The tavern bossʼs hands were sweaty. Itʼs been some time since they got such a big business. Especially a task from one of the prominent families in the city.

Then he carefully uploaded the task details on the tavernʼs site. Only a rogue wizard from their tavern can accept the task. In this way, there is no place for a third party to interfere.

When the task was uploaded. It was quickly accepted by several members. People can accept the task. Since the client wants the mission to be successful.

Itʼs better when many members accept the task.

...

(From MCʼs perspective)

Time passes in a blink of an eye,

The air cab arrived at the destination two hours later. After paying the amount, I exited the car.

Before coming here, I already bought the wilderness pass from the adventure union site. So I walked up to the city guard. After showing my pass and hunterʼs license, I walked towards the gate of entrance to the wilderness.

Since its night time, the city guard didnʼt remember the identity of Vincent Carey. After handling him, he proceeds to check on other people.

After entering the wilderness, I increased my speed to go deep into the woods. The smell of wilderness gives me an adrenaline boost. I remember how timid I was during my first visit.

But everything changed after absorbing the meteor rock.

Swish!

My speed was so fast that I reached the middle of the outer area in a few minutes. On the way, I immediately sensed the breath of a few monsters.

Since they are 1st order monsters, I didnʼt bother to attack them. Surprisingly, I reached the familiar dividing ridge 10 minutes later.

”This speed...” Looking at the familiar location, I couldnʼt help but be amazed at myself. I realized all of this because Iʼm reaching closer to the level-3 stage.

Swish! Swish!

A couple of seconds later, several silhouettes arrived at the spot close to me.

Looking at their attire and badge, I realized they are from local guilds. Then I immediately saw through their level.

Itʼs an adventurer team with 5 members. Except for the level-3 leader, the rest of them are at level 2.

Seeing them, I didnʼt get flustered. If I want, I can kill them with a snap of my fingers. So I didnʼt make any sudden movements and waited patiently.

On the other hand, the adventurer group finally noticed the presence of a stranger beside them. The other party standing alone in the dark, immediately caused them not to act without thinking.

Who comes to the wilderness alone during nighttime? Everyone realized another party was an extremely strong wizard.
