Elder Blake brought media contact Chris and helpers to pose as staff at the reopening appraisal shop. After broadcasting the news, customers began arriving despite yesterday's incident, luring Magic Lord Clint to enter alone in rage. Clint fixed a killing gaze on Wizard Vincent as hidden cameras activated for live media recording, while Vincent deliberately delayed facing him.

Crystal City-Shop

Once the final customer departed, Magic Lord Clint's calm shattered. He turned his eyes toward the gallery office room.

Observing Vincent Carey alone inside, he figured it was the perfect moment to stir up trouble. He strode toward the room.

He barged in without seeking permission.

Meanwhile, the scene was broadcasting live. Elder Blake, Chris, and Old Man Rock kept their focus on it.

Yet, to avoid drawing notice, they along with the other assistants handled the shoppers.

...

Silver Tower

Manager Lara viewed the live broadcast. A friend had tipped her off about the program.

Initially, she dismissed it. Curiosity soon drew her in, leaving her stunned shortly after.

She found it hard to accept as real. The interior of Wizard Vincent’s shop appeared on the telecast.

Magic Lord Clint was visible too. She sensed it formed part of a scheme by Wizard Vincent Carey.

The strategy struck her as clever. From the broadcast, she gathered Magic Lord Clint remained oblivious.

Should Magic Lord Clint act out, he’d tumble right into the snare. That would expose the troublemaker to all.

Attention would shift away from Silver Tower. Fingers would then point at Green Elemental Tower.

They engaged in such dubious dealings.

Green Elemental Tower’s image would suffer. She marveled at Wizard Vincent employing this classic tactic.

Old Man Martin, owner of the bookstore, had arrived in Crystal City. He checked into a hotel.

He held off on meeting Vincent Carey right away. An evening visit was his plan. Yet this unexpected airing changed things.

Witnessing the live feed heightened his astonishment.

"What is the kid doing?" he muttered to himself.

Soon, he pieced it together mentally. He anticipated some bold move from the kid, not this straightforward approach.

This basic tactic could ensnare Magic Lord Clint, provided he stayed unaware.

Within the shop, Magic Lord Clint launched into his typical arrogant antics.

"I have never seen a coward like you. I have attacked your members. They were injured terribly. They are nowhere to be seen right now."

"Yet, you have hired new staff for the business," Clint remarked in a superior tone.

A device sat in the office too. Alerts to outsiders proved impossible. Signals got jammed.

I totally disregarded his statements and kept staring him down.

Magic Lord Clint grew furious.

"I’m going to see how long you can hold on. You weren’t here yesterday, but I made everyone kneel down."

"It’s going to happen today. I’m going to see what you are going to do!" Clint declared with a wicked chuckle.

"No one can mess with our Green Elemental Tower," he declared.

Boom!

He unleashed the pressure once more. The force shattered the window and scattered the displays.

The devices took a heavy hit. Damage struck them immediately. Still, the broadcast persisted uninterrupted.

Devices captured the gallery room happenings. Viewers witnessed Magic Lord Clint’s bullying conduct.

Now he even unleashed Magic Lord-level pressure on Wizard Vincent, merely a Supreme Wizard.

Online viewers of the news reeled in shock. The full picture dawned on them. They’d suspected rival forces before.

Proof had eluded them. No eyewitness accounts existed. But now a confession unfolded live.

Shock rippled through the audience. Even funnier, many laughed at a Magic Lord missing the hidden devices.

Had Magic Lord Clint stayed alert, he’d have spotted them. Blind fury overtook him instead. Rage consumed his thoughts and emotions.

His main aim was provoking Vincent Carey. That’s precisely what occurred. He knew Vincent Carey ranked as a Supreme Wizard.

Such Magic Lord pressure would surely wound him.

Boom!

Meanwhile, table and chairs splintered apart. Dreadful pressure bore down on me. To conceal my real power, summoning aid became necessary.

I faced the window and signaled the others inside.

Swoosh!

Elder Blake and Old Man Rock entered the room. Chris managed the broadcast. He prevented the pressure from affecting the entire structure.

Otherwise, destruction would follow. Unrestrained, Magic Lord Clint’s pressure would ravage the building.

Boom!

Elder Blake intercepted Magic Lord Clint. Clint persisted with his pressure. Old Man Rock positioned himself before me, guarding against the force.

"Ha... Ha... Ha..."

"You can only hide. Do you think you can run the business here?"

"The Green Elemental Tower won’t let you do that," Clint said with maniacal laughter.

Boom!

The oppressive force struck the walls before surging through the entire building. Intense pressure gripped the whole structure.

Should this persist, the building could crumble into ruins. The room's staff had already collapsed to the floor.

The crushing weight was suffocating them. Chris endured the exact same torment.

Elder Blake could tolerate it no further. He shoved Magic Lord Clint back with brute force. Unleashing magic spells here would surely demolish the building.

He refused to let that happen.

"Ha... Ha... Ha..." Clint kept laughing wildly. He expected Vincent Carey to strike against him at any moment.

Yet he remained oblivious that everyone observed his every move.

...

Silver Tower

For a brief instant, Manager Lara lost her cool. Mana coercion burst from her form, smashing the desk and surrounding wooden fixtures.

She swiftly regained her composure. She never imagined Magic Lord Clint would stoop to such extremes.

Although fury raged inside her, she figured the other wizards in the Silver Tower likely burned with the same rage.
