From MC's perspective:
The existence of parasites made me up the guard. Sure, there are strange things in the world that can kill you. After calming down my heart, I decided to use the Repulsive Force Spell.
This spell is better for the current situation. It will drive away the unknown dangers. After figuring it out, I stepped forward and cast the magic spell.
The repulsive force once again swept away the surroundings around me. Seeing that confidence appeared in my heart. Then I walked to the strange flower.
After seeing the flower from a distance. I don't want to get closer. I simply pointed my finger at the plant monster and cast the Gravity Blast Spell.
A wisp of magic released from the fingers and shot at the target. This all happened within seconds.
When the gravity magic comes in contact with the target. It instantly blasted away the plant monster hereby destroying the growing parasites along with it.
Seeing the destruction of the plant monster. I didn't let down my guard. Rather, I continued my search. I think as long as I don't increase my kill count.
It's difficult to see the end.
...
Outside,
When Vincent successfully cleared the 1sr floor. His name appeared in the LeaderBoard Ranking. The name was shown at the bottom with a green signal.
As there was no other Core House wizard competing in the Battle Tower at this moment.
So when the name appeared. It instantly attracted students' attention.
The group of students who were gathered in front of the Battle Tower were startled by this revelation and then a huge commotion breaks out.
All Inner House wizards know about Vincent Carey even though there are many wizard halls in the academy.
The name was quite popular for many reasons. Not only Vincent Carey is a Sub-Taboo grade wizard. He had offended the bloodline hall previously during the official duel against a bloodline wizard Clifton Cox.
After the incident of the bloodline hall's rare defeat. The name of Vincent Carey resounded throughout the academy. Such a name appeared on the LeaderBoard Ranking. So people are thrilled.
"He is here!"
"Damn it, no wonder the back was familiar."
"Vincent Carey was champion of both houses. Now he is participating in the Core House Trial"
"Which means he broke through"
"Vincent Carey is a level-5 wizard now"
"The progress is so scary"
The wizard students started to gossip one by one. Such big news happened. Everyone was so excited.
"Harumph, his progress is low compared to Lara White," an elemental wizard student retorted with a snort.
Not many know that the Elemental Hall has a tie-up with the Bloodline Hall. Like an alliance. So Vincent Carey was naturally hated by the elemental wizards as well.
"Jeeshh"
"What are you talking about?"
"That girl is taboo. Of course, her talent is stronger than Sub-taboo grade wizard," The wizard groups from the wizard hall gave counterarguments.
Amidst all of this, some of them already started to spread the news like wildfire. Especially someone took the image of the leaderboard ranking where Vincent's rank was at the bottom.
That person uploaded the image to the academy's social media site. It will be a matter of minutes before it starts to gain attention.
The Sub-Taboo Hall,
Carolina Slate entered the Hall. She is now a Core House Wizard. The responsibility of Core House Wizard is higher compared to the rules and regulations of the two lower houses.
She has to complete mandatory assignments given by the halls. Because of it, she wasn't able to spend time on other things.
Especially when it comes to relaxing in the Sub-Taboo hall's lobby. She used to take care of office work. But now it's unnecessary.
When she is looking at the desk. Lots of memories came back to her. The image of Vincent Carey comes to her mind.
"I don't know what is junior brother doing right now?"
"I hope he is fine," She muttered to herself.
She came here to take a look. But her heart doesn't want to leave right away. So she sat on the nearby sofa and decided to spend a few minutes there.
Beep~
Suddenly her communication watch was bombarded with notifications.
Hearing the sound, she furrowed her eyebrows in displeasure before looking into notifications.
All of them are messages sent by her connections. But why was everyone texting her at the same time? She felt unreal before opening the message to read it.
She lost her composure when she finished reading it.
"Vincent is back," She said in a trembling tone.
For a second she thought it was a prank. Then she checked out the other few messages swiftly.
All of them are talking about Vincent's appearance in the Battle tower.
"What is he doing there?" She was shocked.
Even after becoming the Level-5 wizard. She didn't dare to join the Core House. But only after Senior Gilbert's advice. She did register her name in the Core House.
But even after doing that she wasn't thinking about the Battle Tower. Because her spells are not up to the mark. It will take some time for her spells to reach the level-5 stage.
But now after hearing the news about Vincent. She felt unreal. She then hurriedly opened the academy's social media site to check it.
She looked at the newsfeed. Then she saw a picture of the leaderboard ranking. It clearly showed the current rank of Vincent in the Battle tower.
"Junior brother cleared the 1st round."
"Which means he is still inside the Battle Tower," Carolina uttered in disbelief.
She didn't know about the difficulty of the trial. But she is aware that wizards have to get a good ranking in the Core House Leader.
To avail some of the privileges of being a Core Hose Member.
The next second, she stood up from the sofa to leave. She knew the academy would be stormed by the news. Vincent's appearance now is like dropping a small pebble on calm lake water.
It will soon have ripple effects. After leaving the hall, she hurried to the Battle Tower.
The Bloodline Hall,
When the news reached Bloodline Hall. The whole hall is going crazy. The inner house bloodline wizards' minds went blank upon hearing the news.
Because Vincent is participating in the Core House Trial. It is difficult to clear the round unless the participant is a level-5 wizard.
So the news is bothering them.
Lara White's breakthrough caused a commotion in the academy 2 months ago. Later many other talented wizards followed suit from the Special Class.
But Vincent Carey is special because. His age is similar to Lara White's. And both are taboo and sub-taboo-level wizards.
In the Core House's private mansion,
Tony Burnett, who is practicing hard, was disturbed by the news.
"That is alive," He gritted his teeth in anger.
In anger, he twisted his fists and punched the metal puppet in its chest.
Boom~
The punch tore through the chest area leaving behind a massive hole in it. His bloodline power is surging. He wanted to vent out all the pent-up frustration right now.
His clan failed to accomplish the task. Then he had thought that the investigation team led by the level-7 wizard would finish the matter.
In the end, the level-7 bloodline wizard was called by the academy. And without the presence of the head, the tail becomes useless in the end.
What's more frustrating is that the bloodline hall has lost its face once again. Now Vincent appeared in the academy. No one will do anything against him.
Tony can't imagine the anger of higher-ups. There will be a commotion for sure. He hopes that they won't target him.
He then concentrated on venting out his anger. Several metal puppets appeared in the room. Tony Burnett began to target them one by one.
Meanwhile,
The Elder House Wizards of the Bloodline Hall came to know about this news. Like wildfire, the news was shared with other elder house wizards.
Soon the news was learned by all the wizard halls. Vincent's safe return is tantamount to hitting the face of Bloodline Hall.
The bloodline wizard's face turned ugly at the news. They have lost their face again. Along with them, the expressions of the elemental wizards were not good either.
They had teamed up together to do the rule-breaking things. But in the end, what was the result? Above the elder house is the Council.
The Bloodline Hall and the Elemental Hall are now in fear that the Council will take action against them.
If it was earlier, then you can do something to escape. But now things change. Vincent is in the Battle Tower Trial. Which shows that he has become a Level-5 wizard.
The academy safety rules are different for Core House wizards and above. If Vincent was on level-4, they could still try to kill him. And escape later by using loopholes in the academy rules.
But now Vincent naturally comes under academy protection. On top of that, he is a Sub-Taboo wizard. Safety is guaranteed.
The bloodline wizards in the council won't be able to act from now on. It's against the rules to target the Core House Wizard and above.
