From MC's perspective:
After completing the morning routine, I came back to the control room. I saw there was no change in the storage room. If I want to gather details, I have to go outside.
Thinking about it, conflicting thoughts appeared in my mind. I was fortunate enough to not come across the big wigs. If I happened to bump into them then even I'm not sure how it's going to end.
After calming down my heart, I decided to hide until the airship landed on the platform.
Then I got up and started reading wizard books.
Days passed in a blink of an eye,
The airship arrives above the platform several miles before the uncharted territory, a dark forest.
Tud!
When the airship came to a halt. I was standing inside the store room. These days I have been keeping an eye on information.
Though I didn't show much of my presence. But I overheard passengers talking about the journey. Because of them, I was able to calculate the approximate time of landing.
Creak~
After pushing these thoughts back off my mind. I opened the door to walk outside.
The next moment, I was greeted by the commotion.
Passengers are excited to leave the airship. I saw a crowd lining up in a queue on one side of the platform. I'm sure of the direction of the entrance.
But I can't go that way. After taking a glance at them, I decided to use my flight ability at the right time. I already thought of a good plan in my mind.
I have to make sure not to alert the bigwigs. Especially the captain of the airship. I walk toward the other end of the airship, opposite the entrance.
There are some staff handling maintenance work. My appearance didn't attract much attention.
When I reached the edge, I realized I had to take a proper look at the surroundings. The landing platform was located in the middle of the forest.
But I'm sure this is not a dark forest. Rather it's a small area of dense green vegetation in this open vast field.
A quick glint flashes in my eyes. Now I have to make some decisions.
Then suddenly I set my gaze on the trees in front of me. If I can get close to the tree, I will use the Gregor Mansion to hide.
Then nobody could catch me no matter what.
Swoosh~
I rose from the ground and used my flight ability to fly straight toward the dense forest.
Such a scene was witnessed by the maintenance worker. They quickly informed the authorities.
"Damn"
"Who is it?"
A thunderous voice came out from the pilot's cabin.
The passengers who were leaving were also shocked by the voice.
Amongst them was Dudley Kramer. When he heard the voice his expression turned ugly.
The butler who was closely following the young master was scared sh!t.
When everyone is panicking from the random shout.
The elder Clayton found something is not right. So he quickly guided Dudley to walk outside.
Meanwhile, the airship authorities were a step too late. Before they could respond, they lost sight of the suspicious person.
Now they can't enter the forest in search of one person. So they stopped following him in the end.
I used the Gregor mansion to hide at the last moment. When I found the aura following me, then I appeared behind the nearby tree and disappeared from the spot.
Looking at these people who are going back to the air shop. A bright smile appeared on my face. This experience is thrilling. Fortunately, the journey came to an end.
Then I have to think of the next course of action.
30 minutes later,
Meanwhile,
Dudley Kramer is standing in front of his favorite luxurious vehicle. Though some of the interior work is incomplete. He can still make use of the vehicle.
"We should leave now," Elder Clayton urged from his side.
Dudley was displeased in his heart. But he didn't show it on his face. After all, only the elderly can protect them from all kinds of dangers.
Then he signaled his butler to start the car. And he and the elder entered the car.
Similarly, scenes are taking place nearby. The passengers from wealthy families got their mode of transport.
Some used flying transit and others were using monster carriages to leave. In a blink of an eye, the whole landing platform was vacated.
And the passengers went in different directions.
Some strong wizards heading in the direction of a dark forest. While others are moving toward their own safe house.
Meanwhile,
I appeared outside when it was completely dark. Because of my magic cloak. No one can sense my presence.
Which allows me to move freely. Then I casually looked in the direction of the airship.
The airship was still on the landing platform. I doubt what other people are doing. My eyes gleamed with a twinkle. I got a strong curiosity in my heart to check out what was happening.
But I controlled my urge. Now I have to head to the dark forest. There is no need to waste time here. After finding the direction, I started to run instead of using my flight ability.
On the way, I carefully ran through the forest. But strangely I didn't come across any monsters.
Then a look of understanding dawned on me. I almost forgot to notice one thing. The lack of mana in the environment.
I can sense the vague mana presence. But it's pitifully low. I should have noticed it earlier. When meditation time was stretching longer these days.
I also exhausted the high-grade mana stones. There are some unexplored storage bracelets with me. I should find some time to check those items.
Come to think of it, I decided to check my status panel.
"System, show me the status panel," I said to the system.

A status screen appeared before my eyes. But the progress was redressed as I walked out of the Capital. It's taking me too much time to touch the daily limit.
...
Meanwhile,
Dudley Kramer already crossed half a mile to reach the dark forest. His luxurious vehicle is going smoothly without causing any problems.
Dudley, who was sitting in the back seat, suddenly remembered something.
"Elder, did you inform my father?" He asked the person sitting next to him.
Elder Clayton's eyes flickered with a slight glint.
He had sent the message to the head of the Kramer Family. But he got no response in reply. He wondered what happened at Kramer Household.
"He knows, "Clayton simply uttered half a sentence. He doesn't want to talk anymore.
Dudley furrowed his eyebrows but stayed quiet. The butler is panicking inside. He can see that the relation between 2 is not good.
He hoped that his young master would be sensible enough to not offend the guest elder.
A few hours later,
The air car reaches the edge of the dark forest.
The butler stopped the car. And then everyone stepped outside. It's nighttime. But the darkness in the surrounding seems to be pitch black.
Dudley felt goosebumps all over his body. Unknowingly, he stood close to the guest elder.
The butler also saw the situation and he hurriedly stood behind the young master.
Whereas Elder Clayton is investigating the surroundings. He is a powerful level-6 wizard. So any trace of magic won't escape from his perception.
Seeing that the surroundings were fine. He decided to camp out here.
"Alright, we will rest here tonight," He said to Dudley who had no objection whatsoever.
A few minutes later,
A monster carriage came to a halt at the same spot.
Dudley's camp was set up behind this luxurious car. So the presence of monsters quickly alerted them.
Elder Clayton was the first one to walk out. Followed by Dudley and his butler. Three of them looked at the monster carriage with solemn gazes.
Clayton can already sense the powerful presence similar to him. So he decided to wait and see.
Creak~
The door opened. A beautiful petite woman walks out together with her maid. But power radiating from the maid alarms Clayton.
"Which family is it?" He said in his heart.
Even Dudley feels something wrong with the atmosphere.
