Chapter 129 Part 2: Killing Jake
(From MC's POV)
Little Star Gate High School,
Time Progresses,
Classes were going on; I didn't do anything to attract attention to myself. Liam and his team were unusually silent. Which turned out well for me. If there was any problem in this class, it would have been started by Liam and his friend.
Apart from monitoring, I tried to find a suitable location for fighting. The location of the school is not credible. Last time, I was just lucky to kill one of Liam's lackeys.
But this time I'm not going to take the risk. My home is also not far away from here.
So, this area is not suitable for my plan. To deal with Jake's house, I made up my mind to find a new unknown spot.
Several hours later,
The classes came to an end. And everyone is walking out of the school. To kill Jake House, finally, I found a suitable spot. But it is in the next town. I need to find a way to lure him to that place.
After figuring it out, "Phew!" I breathed in relief. To be honest, I haven't thought about other issues since this morning.
I didn't let go of Jake House from my sight. After knowing that the appointment of the new headmaster is a few days away. I lost my patience.
I shook my head. I retracted my thoughts.
Then I observed the fellow. He walked out of the class. Seeing that, I patted Fatty's shoulder to follow me.
From the whole observation, I learned that Jake House is a loner. And from time to time, he takes a glance at Frank Lambert, 4th Rank Wizard.
I knew from these little observations that Jake House is vying for the top rank in our class. His current strength is not enough to contend with top mages.
With this super relic, I believe he may have some chance to drastically improve his strength.
Soon, we followed Jake House to the school's entrance gate.
I calmed my nerves and said to fatty Lucas, "Okay, Lucas." I'll see you tomorrow. "
Lucas Brad replied, "Alright, Brother Vincent. I'm leaving then. "
We parted our ways after walking out of the school. Aside from keeping an eye on Jake House, another difficult task is to appear normal in front of Lucas Brad.
I sighed and resumed my pursuit of Jake House. My heart rate is a little bit faster. I hope that there is no strong wizard beside him.
A few minutes later, I found that this guy was waiting for the cab. Seeing that, I sighed in relief.
I shouldn't waste any more time. I need to talk to him. What to do? There is a movement of people around here.
This place is not suitable for confrontation.
Then I suddenly thought of something. To lure him, I should let him know that I'm aware of his super relic.
But at the same time, I should avoid mentioning it as a super relic. Who knows what would happen if someone heard what I was saying?
If not for the super relic, what should I call it?
Then a good idea came to my mind.
After figuring it out, I immediately walked across the street to meet him.
Jake House is waiting for the cab. Seeing someone walking towards him, he raised his head to see the person.
But when he figured it out, the person was a bit familiar. He is a little bit surprised.
Then, after realising that he was a fellow classmate, Jake House muttered in surprise,""What is he doing here?"
Jake House's eyes are set on Vincent. He is a newcomer who recently joined his class. At first, he was interested in him due to Class Teacher Wallace. But that's all in the class.
Vincent is like another stranger to him. There is no interaction between them.
On the other hand,
After walking a little bit closer to him, I said, "Hi, I'm Vincent Carey."
Jake House nodded and replied, "I know, but what are you doing here?" His expression is a little bit strange. Jake House had no previous encounter with Vincent, so he felt quite suspicious.
This is his first time with this newcomer.
Hearing that, I smirked and commented, "I heard you have some treasure in your hands."
Jake House felt a lightning strike on his brain. His scalp almost exploded.
His most precious information is exposed in front of him. But unlike Vincent, Jake House doesn't know the actual identity of the rock.
When Vincent uttered "treasure," his mind almost immediately guessed the rock. But what most shocked him to the core was that Vincent seemed to know about the rock.
Yes, he has been looking for ways to uncover the rock's secret, but the result is that he has failed so far.
A vicious thought came to his mind. He plans to extract the secret of the rock from Vincent. Then he will use that information to improve his strength . And it will be a matter of time before his strength is at the level as top ranker.
He thought about the sarcastic smile of Frank Lambert and decided to wipe him out as soon as possible.
What about Brent Dale and Danny Quinn?
Soon he will be number one in the class.
Current fear and nervousness are replaced by excitement when thinking about a possible future. He doesn't care how Vincent came to know about the rock.
His strength alone is enough to wipe out a newcomer. So Jake House is already thinking that the unknown rock's secret is almost in his hands.
He didn't even put Vincent Carey in his eyes.
While Jake House was pondering, I looked around to see if there were any wizards. This place is not suitable for talking or fighting.
Then I shifted my gaze back to Jake House's face.
Upon seeing me, instead of fear, this guy reveals a cunning smile.
"Handover the secret of unknown rock. I will spare your life. " Jake House said in a vicious tone.
"Hmmm," I'm taken back inside.
What exactly is this unknown rock? For a moment, I felt confused. Then, a couple of seconds later, I realized. This guy is talking about 5 elemental super relics.
Suddenly, clarity came to my mind.
It looks like Jake House failed to identify the rock. He doesn't know what it is? Then I thought about the System's heaven-defying ability.
No one can easily find a super relic. I almost thought my luck was not in this country. But who would have thought that a super relic was in Jake's hands? And he didn't even seems to know about it.
Fortunately, if that's the case, then things were much simpler than I had imagined.
Next, I retracted my thoughts and looked at him. I wasn't able to control my laughter. This guy thinks I'm a soft person.
"Why are you shaking your head? Do you think I'm joking? " Jake House said, in an arrogant tone. He didn't care about the public. He wanted to dig up the secret as soon as possible. His mind is almost crazy with that thought.
I smiled and said, "Well, If you want to know, then come with me.There is a level-2 wizard waiting for you."
If I didn't lure him away, this guy would definitely release his magic power here. It is definitely against the law.
If someone finds out, it's not good for me.
Jake House went silent for a moment.
Hearing Vincent's answer, he began to contemplate, "As expected, there is no chance for this newcomer to know about the unknown rock. Someone must have instructed him from behind to tell me. "
"Who could it be?" Jake House said in his heart.
This item he received from the Royal Force Hall. Except for him, there was no chance for other people to know about it. Could it be? Someone from the Royal Force Hall.
He was already aware that there was a group in Royal Force Hall who objected to the order of superiors. At that time, they didn't want the unknown rock to be given to me.
Right now, he has a vague feeling that Those people hadn't given up yet. It's impossible to reach me back through official means. Since superiors had given orders, they wouldn't openly act against the order.
Now that he realised that those guys started to act in the dark, He felt quite nervous. The strength of those wizards was no joke at all.
Jake made a firm decision in his heart. He won't give this unknown rock to anyone.
since that person from behind is a level-2 wizard. He has some means to kill him.
He is also quite confident in collecting information from him. After gaining some clarity, Jake House smiled and looked at Vincent and said, "Okay, you can lead me to him."
"Phew!"
Thank goodness, he believed my lies. It looks like the story behind the super relic is not easy. I already guessed that it hadn't fallen from the sky.
I nodded and led him to my favourite spot. The location is in the next town. It will take an hour to reach that place.
But I'm not planning on getting into an air cab at all. No one should be aware of our presence, and I'm clear with that.
