Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

From MC's Perspective:

Seeing that it's getting late for the duel, I left the dorm room and walked toward the Sub-Taboo Hall. After a few minutes, I arrived at the Hall. After scanning my details, I stepped into the room.

Immediately, I was greeted by a person in his early twenties. But my instinct alarms me of danger. Before I could speak, the person introduced himself.

"Mark Talley, level-5 Plague Wizard. Core House member of the academy," I repeated the words in my mind.

But what about the magic? It sounds way more deadly than other death attribute magics. Plague? No wonder, I feel a sense of threat from him. Shouldn't he be in Taboo Hall? Why is his magic considered Sub-Taboo?

Lot of questions appeared in my mind. But I know this is not time for the talk. Finally, after knowing he is my senior. I relaxed my guard the next moment. I should have known. Sister Carolina had already been informed about this.

Then from the corner of my eyes, I also noticed the presence of Sister Carolina.

"Vincent, you are late," Carolina Slate said with a smile.

"Ahem, my bad. I was reading some wizardry books," I replied with a half smile on my face.

Mark Talley was intrigued. He finds the younger brother of his had a good temperament.

He said,"Let's go, why are we waiting then?"

Carolina nodded her head. Then she immediately texted the news back to Wizard Gilbert Reese.

Three of us left the Hall the next moment. Then we found the nearest magic booth room for travel. After getting inside, Sister Carolina selected the destination.

A strange glint flashes in my eyes. I know the duel place is located in a separate space like Battle Tower and the Special Class Environment.

Mark Talley seemed to think of something. He advised Vincent,"Beware of that bloodline wizard's tricks. Don't stretch the duel, finish it as soon as possible."

I raised my eyebrows in surprise. Senior Mark seems to be optimistic about me. Unlike Senior Gilbert, he is a lot younger. So I feel more connected with him.

"Alright, Senior brother," I replied in a calm tone.

But in my heart, I calculated to finish the duel quickly as well. Because, I'm not good and righteous. And I don't want to get caught off guard by an unpredictable bloodline boost.

A few minutes later,

We walked out of the magic booth. In front of me is a colossal arena. This magnificent view is breathtaking. I almost forgot about myself and stood in the same spot for a moment.

Seeing the scene, Carolina chuckled.

Mark Talley revealed a small smile on his face. He said,"Looks like our younger brother didn't visit a lot of places in the academy."

When his words reached my ears, I returned to reality. I turned toward him and answered,"Yeah, it's true. The special classes took all of my time."

Mark Talley's eyes flickered with a slight glint. He was aware of the academy's small training program. But for what purposes it's not clear yet. He knows the academy won't do anything without any reason.

He strongly feels that upcoming days won't be peaceful.

Then three of us head towards the entrance. After arriving at the entrance, we found staff waiting for us. Rather, I would say they are waiting for me.

"Are you Vincent Carey?" The leading male staff asked. To that I simply nodded my head.

"Well, you can come with me. It's almost time for the start of the duel,'' the staff added.

Hearing that, I turned toward my Seniors. After speaking to them, I followed the staff to enter the arena. While Seniors walked towards the gallery.

Meanwhile,

A few minutes ago,

The atmosphere inside the duel arena is solemn. Because except for one party which is bloodline Hall. There was no sign of Sub-Taboo Hall members' appearance yet.

Some even started to guess that Sub-Taboo Hall somehow abandoned the match. Because, the duel challenger, Clifton Cox is already standing in the middle of the duel arena in front of everyone's gazes.

He is waiting for the opponent to arrive.

"Tck, what's taking them so long?" The green haired wizard in the Bloodline Hall Section mumbler under his breath.

Beside him, the wizard with snake pupils glances at his watch from time to time. He had already placed his men in front of Sub-Taboo Hall.

Beep!

The next moment, he received the message from his eyeliner. His snake pupil stared at the message before he hissed. After closing the message, he said,"They are coming."

Hearing that, the green haired wizard eases down his eyebrows.

Duel Platform,

Clifton Cox standing in daze on the duel platform. He feels like stupid. He came here to finish the duel in a short amount of time and then go back to his place.

But the Sub-Taboo Hall's behavior is pissing him off. "Is it him or his seniors?" His eyes flickered with cold glint. He knows the Sub-Taboo Wizards are not pushovers.

Like the Two Elite Wizards on his side today. The Sub-Taboo must have seniors keeping any eye on this duel. Just as he was starting to get impatient.

He noticed the change in people's commotion. He immediately shifted his attention toward the Sub-Taboo Hall gallery. Then he saw the appearance of two wizards. He instantly recognized them.

Two of them are famous Sub-Taboo Hall Wizards. One of them is known for her deadly strangulation. And the other one is simply a messenger of death.

Deadly Vine Wizard? Plague Wizard? Clifton Cox's expression condensed. He knows If these two are here, then Vincent must be here.

He then shifted his attention toward the opposite entrance.

Meanwhile,

The crowd also noticed the appearance of people in the Sub-Taboo gallery.

The green haired wizard and the wizard with snake pupils looking for a certain someone to appear.

"Why are these two young pups here?"

"But there is no sign of Gilbert," The green haired wizard's face turned ugly. They had expected to see Wizard Gilbert Reese.

But seeing that the other one didn't appear at all. Now they are looking like fools.

The wizard with snake pupils hissed before saying,"Wait, he will definitely appear."

"How do you say so?"The green haired wizard asked.

The wizard with snake pupils revealed a cold smile on his face before uttering a few words.

Hearing that a look of understanding dawned upon him. These two gave a certain potion to Clifton Cox.

They knew what would happen after consumption of that potion. If no one intervenes in this duel, then the gravity wizard kid would die for sure.

Which is a win-win situation for their Sub-Taboo Hall. Only a True House Wizard and above can intervene in this duel.

Even if Gilbert decides to appear, they know how to block him.

At the same time, Lara White looks at the Sub-Taboo gallery. Seeing the appearance of the two wizards, she couldn't help but recall their information in her mind.

One is an inner house wizard like her. And the other is a famous person in both Taboo Hall and Sub-Taboo. Because plague magic is a controversial topic. No one knows how to categorize this magic.

She remembers the discussion of their seniors. Plague magic is extremely dangerous magic. It should be classified as Taboo. But not all of the higher management people were convinced because of some untold reasons.

So that Senior is now studying under the banner of Sub-Taboo Hall. Seeing that Vincent got two powerful supporters, she feels a little lost.

Because she came here alone. The Seniors in her Hall are not talkative. Most of it stems from the arrogance of Taboo magic. Many Seniors in her Hall think that Taboo magic is superior magic.

And they don't need to have conversations with others. Thanks to the special class, she got the opportunity to interact with other inner house wizards. Otherwise, she would have walked the path of the Seniors.

Recalling another horrible conversation, she sighed to herself. Next, her gaze fell on the duel stage. She is looking forward to the appearance of Vincent Carey.

Meanwhile,

The staff wanted me to sign some documents before the duel. Since it's an official duel, the final procedures need to be carried out.

When I was viewing the digital document. Suddenly, I feel someone standing behind me. The appearance was so sudden. But I feel no malice. Otherwise, the system would have warned me.

When I turned back, I recognised the person immediately.

"Senior Gilbert?" I exclaimed in surprise. I had never expected to meet Wizard Gilbert here. This came as a pleasant surprise.

Wizard Gilbert revealed a smile on his face before saying,"Looks like your strength has improved further." His eyes scanned Vincent's body.

A hint of surprise flashes in his eye. He feels Vincent is stronger than he had imagined.

Then he slowly said,"I came here to give you this thing," After saying that he handed over a circular magic pendant.

"Senior, what is this?" I received the circular pendant from him.

"It's a defensive magic artifact. It can even withstand the blow from a level-6 wizard," Gilbert said plainly.

My heart set off storms.
