Gravity Mage with Level-Up System Chapter 1832 1832: Part 2: Meeting (Silver Tower)

Magic City
Once the meeting concluded, the Silver Tower issued its official announcement. This revelation rapidly circulated throughout Magic City, leaving everyone stunned.
The announcement revealed the identity of the new proprietor for the appraisal shop in Crystal City.
Everyone knew about the Crystal City disturbance; it was no secret. That's why countless people closely monitored the Silver Tower's actions.
This announcement directly addressed that disturbance. Learning that somebody had acquired the shop stunned the public.
In particular, the new proprietor's name left them reeling. That renowned figure was someone the entire world had been hunting.
No one anticipated his purchase of this appraisal shop. Word also reached the wizard seed families and elemental wizard families.
Wilfred Cox, Jason Nicholson, and Susan Park were away on a mission, yet their families at home caught wind of the news. It floored them.
They assumed Vincent Carey was hiding out somewhere remote since so many hunted his life.
Even after ascending to Supreme Wizard status, the threats on his life persisted. The elemental magic towers eagerly awaited his return.
This prompted the wizard seed families to warn their offspring to avoid Vincent Carey entirely.
Yet, they remained unaware that restoring their old ties was utterly impossible, even if desired.
Vincent Carey had risen to Supreme Wizard, while his wizard seed acquaintances lingered at level-9. The gap between them was vast.
Soon, the Doyle family and various other wizard families learned of it too. Fury gripped them; they sought Vincent Carey for vengeance and never imagined him running a business.
Crystal City was familiar to them, though uninvolved. They recognized the Flame Elemental Tower's role in the chaos there.
These wizard families rejoiced at finally pinpointing Vincent Carey's whereabouts.
With a chance he might show at his fresh acquisition, they resolved to scrutinize the Crystal City appraisal shop intensely.

Green Elemental Tower
The tower's leaders reeled from the announcement. They had aided the Flame Elemental Tower by concealing banned items within the appraisal shop.
Still, the Flame Elemental Tower couldn't uncover them. Shop owner Frank had stashed the banned items away.
Leaders suspected Frank negotiated a pact with the Silver Tower, centered on those banned items.
SunHaven City's banned items posed dangers yet held immense value as treasures. No one foresaw them landing with the Silver Tower.
This development spelled misfortune for the Green Elemental Tower; aiding the Flame Elemental Tower yielded zero gains.
The leaders perceived it as a stinging "face-slapping." The Silver Tower reaped all rewards, leaving no path to reclaim the banned items.
...
Flame Elemental Tower
Leaders and formal members absorbed the news too. Mirroring the Green Elemental Tower, shame washed over them.
Such a bold play from the Silver Tower caught them off guard. Who hasn't heard of Vincent Carey?
His Sub-Taboo Magic elevated his stature in Mage Union circles alike. Leaders paused before plotting another strike on the appraisal shop.
Wizard Vincent Carey now belonged to the White Silver Faction. Harming him meant clashing with that powerful group.
Reports confirmed the White Silver Faction's two mightiest wizards had returned.
Magic Lord Scott, despite Lord Callum's support, stood no chance against dual Forbidden Wizards.
Conversely, Scott's reaction to the news rendered him mute. Dread filled him over those two Forbidden Wizards targeting him.
Discovering Vincent Carey of the Silver Tower had seized the shop amplified his mounting misfortune.
He mused that without the Green Elemental Tower's prodding, he wouldn't have invested so heavily. Above all, Lord Callum issued no directives.
Lord Callum surely knew of it but offered no word. Scott pondered his next move in uncertainty.

Crystal City
Silver Tower's announcement aired across online channels, captivating viewers. Earlier distressed locals and merchants now eased their worries.
A Silver Tower affiliate purchasing the appraisal shop granted it legitimate standing.
Joy exploded among locals, particularly thrilled customers. Local families, Wizard Associations, and city officials all welcomed the update with relief.
Elder Blake and officials displayed varied responses.
They blocked the Flame Elemental Tower's disruptions yet couldn't halt Magic Lord Isabella's interference, as a Silver Tower official herself.
Blake let out a heavy sigh. His efforts neither shone nor doomed him—no punishment awaited, nor any rewards.
With the new owner unveiled, he vowed greater caution. Offending this proprietor risked reassignment elsewhere. He relayed this warning to his team.
Wizard Associations reeled in astonishment, none more than Infinite Circle head Edmund.
He aided shop owner Frank out of eagerness to curry favor with the Silver Tower, lingering until Manager Lara's arrival.
The announcement thrilled him. Fresh ownership loomed.
Wizard Vincent's reputation as Silver Tower's rising star rang familiar; he shared Manager Lara's faction.
Edmund viewed it as their scheme to safeguard Crystal City and the appraisal shop. Elation surged—he'd dispatched Jonah on tasks, planning a debrief upon return.
