Chapter 362 Bloodline Hall’s Scheme
From MC's Perspective:
"Vincent, don't go outside of the academy without having life saving items," John Meyers said.
"Also try to have more connection with True House Wizard like Senior Gilbert," He added further.
I raised my eyebrows in confusion. John's questions contain hidden meanings. What do you mean by not to go outside?
I looked toward him and asked,"Senior, can you tell me what's going on?"
Hearing that John revealed his worries. In particular, worries related to the dark league.
After a few minutes, my eyes gleamed with twinkle. Dark League? It was always on my mind. Since I'm living inside the Academy. I didn't think too much about them.
"Sigh"
"Senior, don't worry. I'm not planning to go outside for the time being," I replied.
A hint of relief flashes in John Meyers' eyes. Since Vincent made up his mind. Now he has an opportunity to discuss with Superiors regarding the dark league.
"Good,"
"If you need something, you can contact me anytime you want," John Meyers said with a smile on my face.
"Finally," I said in my heart before asking," Senior, do you have any meteor rocks with you?"
John Meyers was stunned before a look of understanding dawned upon him. He almost forgot Vincent's longing for meteor rocks. But currently the country of meteorites is on high alert.
They are strictly patrolling the border. It's not easy to infiltrate in current conditions.
"Vincent, the meteor country is not currently safe for foreigners. If the situation improves, I'll get that thing for you," John Meyers answered.
A hint of disappointment flashes in my eyes. But I still nodded my head in response. Then we talked about a few other things before parting ways.
On my way toward the dorm, I couldn't help but think about his last words. "Be wary of Bloodline Hall's True House Wizards," I mumbled under my breath.
Looks like it's impossible to be low key anymore. My eyes burst out with a cold glint. It's really tiring to go with the flow.
A few minutes later,
I returned back to my room and started reading the gravity wizard books. I'm learning how to control the gravity mana particles in a better way.
...
The Bloodline Hall,
The green haired wizard and the wizard with snake pupils looked dejected. Higher ups from the Elder House strictly reprimanded them today.
The green haired wizard's face looked ugly. "I hadn't expected that little duel would draw Elder House' attention," He muttered.
Elder House is the real ceiling of the academy. Elder House and above are all pillars of the academy. To think that they saw the official duel, he couldn't help but curse at his carelessness.
The wizard with a snake pupil hissed. He said,"Usually, those old fogeys don't interfere in wizard Hall's affairs. But this time there is obvious change." His eyes flickered with cold glint.
"Remember, I have told you about the late gravity ancestor," He added further.
The green haired wizard's pupil shrank. He hurriedly turned toward him and asked,"Are you saying that higher ups are staring at that kid?"
Green haired wizard is really scared. Because Sub-Taboo Hall is going to gain another powerhouse in future. And it won't be simple as Elder House level, that kid may go beyond if he accepts inheritance.
For the first time green haired wizard's face condensed thinking about trifling Inner House kid.
The wizard with snake pupils hissed before saying,"You are right. Our bloodline Hall superiors have the same concern as well. They really don't want to see another powerhouse rise up."
"I already got a hint of approval from higher ups to remove the kid."
The green haired wizard's heart set off storms. He immediately asked,"What higher ups are thinking? It's not easy to touch that kid. Everyone knows that kid might become the successor of late gravity ancestor."
"So other Halls are keeping their hands down. Do you think no one wants to trouble that kid before our Bloodline Hall?"
"I heard that kid had some confrontation with the Mechanical Hall and Transformation Hall as well."
The green haired wizard really doesn't want to be involved in this. If something happens to that kid, then their bloodline Hall will suffer a huge blow.
The higher ups would definitely kill us as a scapegoat.
The wizard with a snake pupil hissed. He smelled the scent of fear from his friend. A look of disdain flashes in his eye before returning to normal.
He understands the worry of his friend. But he simply can't deny the offer. Because the offer given to him was very useful for his snake bloodline's improvement.
If he does that, then he will definitely become an important figure in the Elder House in future. That's a true peak.
"Are you going to do it or not?" He asked back.
The green haired wizard's face sank before sighing. From his friend's tone he can see that it's impossible to back away. So he simply nodded his head.
Seeing that wizard with snake pupils nodded his head in satisfaction before saying,"We need to lure that kid to go outside."
"I will come up with a suitable plan later," he said.
"Wait, I hear there is a big auction coming up in the dragon city," The green haired wizard suddenly said.
"Auction?" The wizard with snake pupil surprised. He thinks it's indeed a good place to attract that kid without any suspicion.
But that kid is a mere level-3 wizard. Most of the powerhouse who attended the auctions were in ranks of level-5 and above.
If that kid goes, he won't be allowed to enter.
The green haired wizard thought of something and asked,"Why don't we lure that kid by placing items related to gravity magic in auction?"
The wizard with snake pupils becomes hesitant. Because it would be too obvious if he does that. Then the Academy would definitely track back the details.
But if there is another choice, then he decided to use the auction opportunity.
...
The next few days passed in a blink of an eye.
Those who were intending to see Bloodline Hall's retaliation were returned with disappointment.
Even the online posts were decreased regarding the Bloodline Hall and Sub-Taboo Hall. Things were eventually returned back to normal.
But that doesn't mean people stopped staring at Vincent Carey. Right after the official duel, the Wizard Halls noticed a change in Vincent's behavior.
Because, for the past few days, Vincent Carey has been going back and forth between library and dorm. Even his visits to the Sub-Taboo Hall have become short.
Which caused people with ulterior motives to give up. People had expected another show between the two halls. But strangely nothing had happened.
At the same time, a huge news broke out all of a sudden. Dragon City's Central Auction will happen in a few days.
Every power house was gearing up for this auction. Because the majority of the auction items come from the foreign countries.
Foreign countries' magic and cultures were different. So it usually attracts many powerhouses from the state.
....
At the same time,
Green Serpent Clan,
The wizard with snake pupils is standing before the patriarch.
"Ko, are you serious?" The patriarch asked with solemn concern on his face.
The wizard with the snake pupil's name is Ko. Right now, he is really crossing his boundaries to request something.
"Patriarch, only that blood can attract the attention of that gravity kid," Ko answered.
The Patriarch became hesitant. He doesn't know how Ko got such an offer to improve his bloodline.
If ko becomes an Elder level Power House, then their Green Serpent Clan will emerge as a local tyrant in surrounding regions.
The Patriarch then asked, "Are you sure that your academy would never seek revenge for that kid?"
Ko answered with a smile,"Patriarch rest assured. That kid comes from a mage family which is no different to regular humans. And the Academy won't care about the dead genius."
"On top of it, our Clan has the support of the entire Bloodline Hall. So things will never go wrong," he added further.
"Alright then, I will discuss with our sleeping ancestors later. I need their permission to fulfill your request," The patriarch said.
Hearing that, Ko smiled.
