Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

Chapter 1227: Howardʼs old memories

From MCʼs Perspective:

The following day,

After getting ready, I left for the Special Mage Department as usual. To be on the safe side, Iʼm keeping an eye on my surroundings while walking.

Last night, I found no one spying on me. Head Howardʼs words worked out. The person named Harvey didnʼt come after me.

Suddenly, I felt a piercing gaze on my face.

Feeling this, I turned around to see the person. Then I saw it was the stalker team from the Bloodline Beast Department.

They were monitoring my whereabouts. I shook my head twice before resuming walking. I wonder how much the Perry Family has paid them for this job.

Meanwhile,

Inside the Bloodline Beast Department, Charon Perry got the news. His face turned ugly as if he had eaten something unpleasant. Once again, his grand plan ended in failure.

Last night, he contacted Harvey Nagle after receiving so many missed calls from him. At that time, he thought Harvey must have completed the task. Thatʼs why he couldnʼt wait to receive the rewards.

But when he answered the call, all he heard was scolding from Harvey, and then later, he lost contact with him. From beginning to end, he didnʼt know what happened.

Harvey Nagle didnʼt explain much. He vented his anger at Charon Perry.

After the call, Charon Perry had a sleepless night. He wanted to see whether Vincent Carey was alive or not. Now that he heard the news, his mood was worse than before.

”Even the student of a Supreme Wizard canʼt help him solve that nobody,” Charon gritted his teeth in anger.

He couldnʼt figure out who was saving that nobody. He had tried various methods, but some plans had to be stopped because Vincent Carey never left the campus.

It was as if someone had already informed him about the dangers. Vincent Carey rarely chose to go out. He then thought of something important.

Since his family had decided to go against Head Howard, he would later find a chance amid the chaos to kill Vincent Carey.

Until then, he had to let him live.

”Enjoy your remaining days,” Charon said to himself.

...

Days passed,

The Aristocratic Families were trying to get more support inside the organization. One of their goals was to gain the support of the Magic Palace Masters as much as possible.

Not everyone was willing to go against a Magic Lord. But people were betting on the existence of the True Elements Society.

Head Howard couldnʼt go against everyone if he wanted to keep the current organization as it was. Otherwise, the internal frictions would lead to separation.

If the True Elements Society was divided, then the organization would attack them. So they were betting on this situation. Head Howard wouldnʼt be stupid enough to cause this.

In the meantime, Head Howard was busy searching for hidden information about the Pinewood Forest. He got some useful information as well.

The following day,

Head Howard left the True Elements Society alone without informing anyone. He was moving towards the Forbidden Pinewood Forest in mid-air.

His presence was concealed so that no nearby wizards, including the Magic Lord, could sense him. His trip to the Forbidden Pinewood Forest was a secret.

If he could figure out the secrets inside that place, not only would he be able to solve the resource problem of Vincent Carey, but he would also acquire other magic resources for the True Elements Society.

He was aware of the situation inside the True Elements Society. The Aristocratic Families were trying hard to gain the Magic Palace Masters on their side.

But he didnʼt stop them from doing it. Because everything was based on interest. If he could get rare magic resources that could help the Supreme Wizards, then the Magic Palace Masters would turn to his side.

After pushing down the distracting thoughts, he resumed moving.

About a few hours later,

Howard Mason was able to enter the Forbidden Pinewood Forest. It was still daytime, but he could sense an ominous dark magic.

Feeling this, he couldnʼt help but recall his old memories. He had come here multiple times in his early days. But after a certain point, he couldnʼt go further.

The breath of evil dark mana posed a greater threat. Those who accompanied him at that time faced similar threats. Some of them had died as well.

Sigh!

Thinking about those bad old memories, a sigh escaped from his mouth.

Howard then slowly went deeper inside the Pinewood Forest. He was moving in the air slightly above the ground. In the blink of an eye, he left the outer area and arrived at the inner area.

This was where he had been stopped in his early days.

Howard frowned. It was daytime, but not a single sunlight ray was able to touch the ground. The sun rays were absorbed by something.

It appeared normal. The view was crystal clear. But Howard, as a Magic Lord, looked carefully before realizing what was going on.

Something dark was eating away the bright sun rays. In his early days, he hadnʼt been able to find this phenomenon. Now he could do things that he couldnʼt do previously.

After glancing around, he moved further. The presence of evil dark mana became clear. The huge trees were surrounded by thick dark fog.

As if they were breathing the fog itself. When Howard moved past the giant trees...

Swoosh!

The thick dark fog leaped towards him. Howard snorted, as if he had eyes on his back. He was able to see what was happening 360° around him.

Boom!

A Magic Lordʼs mana burst out from his body. The thick dark fog that came into contact with the mana let out a weird scream before scattering into dust.

The same thing happened with other thick dark fogs. Everything turned to ashes.

In the blink of an eye, he was the only one left in mid-air.

Howard looked at the giant trees that had been covered by thick dark fog earlier. Now their condition was horrible to see.

The giant trees looked similar to the shivering, dry bodies of humans.
