Gravity Mage with Level-Up System Chapter 2143: Searching the Place
Previously on Gravity Mage with Level-Up System...
Border City - Ironvale Family
The butler left the room after showing me around. The red smoke was hovering around me.
"Zero, go and collect information about the Black Mists Forbidden in this place," I instructed the Zero puppet.
The Zero puppet obeyed the order. The red smoke then exited the room. I had already scanned the estate and confirmed that there were no Forbidden Wizards in the place.
So I could walk sideways here. Then I went to the door and locked it. Next, I went inside the Gregor Mansion to meet the members.
After entering the hall, I summoned them. It didn’t take long for everyone to assemble. Otto, Patrick, Hank, and Old Man Rock were seated on the sofa.
Lady Caitlin was seated on the big chair next to me. The two monsters were inside the system space resting. Then I thought of another member who was not here.
Duncan was playing an undercover wizard in the Black Tower. I didn’t know what was going on out there. The Covenant might have intensified their attacks.
Next, I shook my head and pushed the unnecessary thoughts out of my mind. I found the gazes of the others on me.
So I began to brief them on the current situation. Everyone had an expression of surprise. They didn’t expect to reach the destination so soon.
"We are at the border city. I think we need to cross a few more cities to reach the shore," I said.
"Are there any Forbidden Wizards in the country?" Lady Caitlin asked.
Hearing that, the faces of everyone shifted dramatically, because it was one of the most important questions.
I thought of Talia’s words. But it was not best to trust her words without verifying.
"I have not sensed any Forbidden Wizards yet. I will send you guys outside later. Then you can start collecting information," I said to them.
The members agreed. Then they went back inside their rooms. I appeared back outside. On the other hand, I became curious about the place.
But before that, I decided to get some rest. The Zero puppet was doing the work now. It wouldn’t be long before I had the information in my head.
Meanwhile,
Roland, the head of the family, consumed the Grade-11 Healing Herb brought by Talia. When the energy entered his body, he felt the pain lessen.
Still, Talia could see discomfort on his face. She didn’t know whether the Grade-11 herb was effective or not. If it didn’t work, then she would have to ask for help from the masked man.
"Father, Mother!"
"I have some other important news to tell you," Talia said.
Hearing that, Roland opened his eyes. Florence turned toward her daughter. They were curious. They didn’t know what else had happened.
Talia then shared the news about the masked man and how she had encountered him at the auction house.
It took her a few minutes to explain the whole thing. Both parents looked at each other. They didn’t know what to say.
Their daughter had invited a guest, but they had not welcomed him yet.
Talia didn’t talk about the whole matter, especially the incident of the masked man crushing the Magic Lord like nothing. The news would definitely shock her father.
She didn’t want her father to worry about their safety, so she didn’t tell him.
"If that person has a modern aircraft with him, then he must be from the forces connected to the rumored magic city. There are no other powerful wizard forces in the nearby lands. Maybe there are some across the sea," Florence said.
"Did you ask him what he wanted?" Roland asked.
"Father, I agreed to let him stay for a couple of days on one condition: he will look at your injury. If I’m not wrong, he must have healing resources as well. I’m hoping he will use those to heal you," Talia said.
Hearing that, Roland and Florence didn’t know what to say. Why would someone use their resources to heal a stranger?
"It’s okay. If the person can help me out, then we will give him an equally valuable magic treasure," Roland said.
"Okay," Talia replied.
"Bring him down for dinner. Don’t disturb him now," Roland said.
Talia agreed. But she was surprised internally. She didn’t expect her parents to get worked up over a Supreme Wizard.
She saw their expressions change when they learned he owned a modern aircraft, which was rarely seen among the wizard forces.
None of the forces in this country or the neighboring countries had a modern aircraft with them. The aircraft had shortened the distance by half.
Talia then left her parents’ room and went toward her room.
"What do you think?" Roland asked.
A quick gleam appeared in Florence’s eyes.
"The Sea Nations here have nothing to offer to powerful wizard forces. So the young man could be here for some other reason," Florence said, sharing her honest thoughts.
Roland gave it some thought. He was worried that the young man was not here alone, but with protectors. Why would a big force allow a Supreme Wizard to travel using a modern aircraft?
Such advanced vehicles were coveted by wizards. There were bad people in their country as well.
If the news were to reach them, it would cause problems. He didn’t know whether the young man could cure his problem or not.
But he would be happy if the man just went away from this place. They had made a decision even before meeting the person.
Evening came.
Talia went to see the masked man. She decided to take him around the city before returning for dinner.
She knew that the masked man was collecting information about their country and the surrounding countries as well.
If she showed him a few places, then he could gather that information himself.
Meanwhile,
The Zero puppet in red smoke form was going from one room to another. It did come across book collections in the rooms, but those books were not history books.
The Zero puppet was looking for the study chamber used by the family head. After hearing the conversation of the family members, it knew the exact location.
But there were people standing in front of it. They were dressed in black tuxedos. They looked like servants, but they were strong wizards.
