Chapter 106 Xavier Harper’s Plan
Carey Residence-Red City,
"Special relics?"
"Normal Relics?" I muttered to myself.
Looks like even if I enter the auction house, I don't have any capital to buy anything. It's the place for the rich to bid.
I sighed, it all comes down to money in the end.
After getting my dad's response, I'm sure he feels I will choose the third option. To seek the help from Elder Mr. John Meyers.
What kind of character is he? How am I supposed to ask him? As a level 5 existence, he must have some higher status in Yellow River Academy.
It's already great that he paid some attention to me. Which doesn't mean, I'm close enough to ask for relics from him.
Unless,I'm proven my worth. Such an existence like Mr. John Meyers won't pay attention to me. So forget about helping me.
*Vincent doesn't know that, While on investigation trip Mr.John Meyer has succeed in getting resources for him,from Meteor Country*
To get relics for practice is harder than I thought.
Unless,someone like rogue Marcus comes across me. It's difficult to find relics.
Various thoughts run in my mind. For a moment, I thought I'm a little too hasty on things.
It's not even a month over since awakening, I'm worried about my magic level ascension.
Shaking my head, first I decided to learn some things & broaden my knowledge.
For that I'm going to spend my free time in the school's library.
After gaining some clarity, I talked about a few other things with my father before heading back to my room.
…
Flatshield Province- Sand Rock Country,
Cragville City,
Flatshield Province is the underdeveloped land in Sand Rock Country. There is not much of the population in the entire province except some government & other organisations.
So the human population continues to live in this Province in large numbers.
As there is no trouble with wizards here, the crisis faced by humans was actually low. So there is a hinder for normal human population growth.
In such a province, Cragville comes under a low grade city.
As most of the land here is covered by forest, any major development is yet to take place.
Only a few villages can be seen on the outskirts of the city. There is a wide river running across the city. People here make a living by fishing and selling forest products.
In such a low key land, a secret hideout of poison dagger is located inside the forest.
Night time,
Inside the dark loony forest. There is a well built hut that can be seen on the open land.
A dark robe silhouette walks out the hut by opening the door slowly.
He is none other than leader of the Poison Dagger, Xavier Harper- level 4 Toxic Mage.
Xavier Harper appears to be a middle aged person, He is 302 years old & has a weak sickly body due to his toxic magic power. His skin color was pale.
All of this was well covered under his black magic robe. It can't even be seen under normal broad daylight.
Now it's night, he looked pitch black.
Suddenly, moonlight reflected on him, feeling that he removed his hood completely.
His long black hair and black eyes become visible under moonlight.
After gazing at the sky for a moment, his sight falls on a nearby tree.
He saw a small black crow on one of the branches. A small scroll can be seen on its feet.
Upon seeing the master, the red eyes of the crow flickers slightly. In the next second, it flew towards him and slowly landed on his shoulder.
Xavier Harper without much expression on his face, he removes the knot and takes out the scroll from the crow's feet.
He looked around for a moment, then he extended his hand slowly and cast a toxic spell.
A green color smoke is released from his palm & quickly begins to spread to the surroundings.
Soon the entire area around the hut is covered with green color fog making the environment dreadful for living things.
Any living things which enter the fog will be poisoned quickly.
Xavier Harper walked back to his hut without looking back at the aftermath.
After getting inside the hut, he sat in his chair.
The small crow is still standing on his shoulder, it has no intention to move away from the spot.
Xavier Harper opened the scroll to read the message.
His eyes flicker with interest as he goes through the information.
"Leon, oh Leon." He grunted with some expectation.
He knows that Level 4 Mucus Wizard Leon Willy is going to perform another forbidden experiment.
From those 6 containers he already got some material for experiment.
For a moment, he stops reading the message and ponders, If Leon succeeds in getting a breakthrough, he will become level-5 existence.
A dangerous light flashes in Xavier's eyes.
Though he is the current leader of Poison Dagger. He is not sure that it will remain the same in the future.
Right now, his toxic smog is more powerful than Leon's mucus magic.
He got his poison element due to natural awakening, unlike Leon's forbidden experiment.
So his poison is more powerful than Leon's. But Xavier has a drawback: his ascension takes a longer period. He doesn't know when he will enter level 5.
For a breakthrough he has been moving around the country. Looking out for a suitable miasmic area to practise. Yet still he is a little bit slower than Leon.
"If that guy gets a breakthrough, there is quite a possibility that he will take control of the poison dagger." Xavier said to himself.
He was created to poison daggers ultimately to make money and to collect resources for his magic practice.
But he knows once Leon takes control of Poison Dagger then the whole situation will change.
Leon will use the organization's resources for his forbidden experiment. How could he let that happen?
"Sorry,Leon. I won't let you succeed." Xavier said in his heart.
Then the next second he shifted back to the scroll. And he continues to read the message.
He finds some interesting things like the Police Dept's infiltration into their hideout.
His face turned ugly after knowing the situation."These dogs(police wizards) even found out the secret hideout in the old town." Xavier raised his eyebrows in curiosity.
The information also points out that the huge fight broke out between Leon & Tyler. He knows Tyler, a fellow whose job is to find our hideouts.
His face suddenly lit up with a smile as he found out the result of the battle. "Tyler is poisoned. Then he will die for sure." Xavier muttered to himself.
Right now he feels Leon is pleasing to the eye. It's not easy to eliminate level-4 Wizard. That too a Physique Wizard.
Then he continues to read and finally finishes a few seconds later.
This whole information feels surreal to him. It also says Killian helped Leon by fighting against another level-4 wizard. Various unusual thoughts popped up in his mind.
Were they teamed up all of a sudden?
Then this sign is no good for him. Killian is such a sly guy, if he feels Leon is better than him. Then he won't hesitate to side up with him.
While tapping his wooden desk, he ponders deeply.
It's impossible to confront them. At the same time, he doesn't want the two of them to know about his intentions.
Finally after a few minutes he comes to conclusions.
He knows that Leon is preparing to locate a new hideout. Probably he will conduct his new experiment in that location. A new light flashes in his eyes.
If he leaks out that information, then the police dogs will surely find out the location. It will eventually hinder Leon's various plans.
Xavier feels this is the best possible outcome for him. Once Leon's plan is disturbed, it's not easy to move out to another location.
In the meantime he will find out some ways to increase his strength.
Then he also has a vague feeling in his heart that sly guy Killian is not that simple.
He remembers when Killian joined his organisation. At that time he was short of hands and inclusion of level 4 Wizard only adds to strength to his organisation.
Yet he wasn't able to verify Killian's background till now. A small hint of doubt rose in his heart. He feels it's best to find out about his background as soon as possible. He doesn't want any variable to appear.
Before he neglected these things, as all of them were evil factions. But now there is danger to his interest. He doesn't want to lose his poison dagger organization to others.
After gaining some clarity, he immediately stood up from his seat. He walked a little forward to the centre of the hall. Next second, he activates a runic pentagrams a small green color fire rose from the runic pentagrams.
Seeing that Xavier drops the scroll into the fire, which turns into ashes the next second.
There is no trace of magic left behind inside the hut.
Xavier then turned off the runic pentagrams. And takes out another scroll from his storage bracelet. He is going to leak out the information. As the scroll begins to hover in front of him, he begins to type the message using a magic pen.
