Chapter 437 Gilbert’s Help
From MC's perspective:
Beep~
When I was observing the bloodline wizard. I received a message from someone all of a sudden. But when I saw the contact name,
My expression changed. Earlier gloominess was replaced by a sense of relief. Then without turning back, I took large strides toward the Sub-Taboo Hall.
I believe Senior Gilbert can help me. Then I arrived in front of the Sub-Taboo Hall a few minutes later.
Then I showed my I.D. for verification. When the green signal was lit up. The door opened automatically.
After entering inside, I saw Senior Gilbert and Sister Carolina Slate.
A strange glint flashes in Gilbert's eyes. But he didn't show any emotions on his face.
"Vincent, how have you been?" He asked.
Hearing that I revealed a wry smile on my face. I sat on the chair before replying, "I'm doing fine. But these bloodline wizards are following me."
"So I want seniors to help me with something," I added further.
Gilbert squinted his eyes further. He wasn't surprised by Vincent's words. He too knows Bloodline Hall's actions.
So he asked, "What do you need?"
I glanced at Carolina who is sitting behind the desk before speaking to him. I told him about the mission.
Then I requested him to arrange the mission for me. So that no one could know my whereabouts.
Carolina who is listening silently. Suddenly, she spoke up.
"Senior Gilbert, the bloodline wizard won't stay silent. They would do something if he goes outside for a mission."
Hearing that I don't know whether to laugh or cry. She doesn't know that they had already tried to kill me. But they had failed in their attempt.
Even I decided to hide this matter from Senior Gilbert. Because I had killed three level-6 wizards. If they were to know about this, then it wouldn't be beneficial for me.
To hide my magic prowess. I don't have any other choice, other than to hide this news from them.
Gilbert closed his eyes and pondered. He came here for a reason. He wants to know when Vincent would break through or not.
Lara White had made a breakthrough. And firmly placed her position as a genius. Now everyone's eyes are set on her.
So Vincent Carey's momentum is slowly fading away. If he fails to progress any further, then he would have a chance to inherit the later Gravity Ancestor's work.
But after knowing Vincent's difficulties. He doesn't know whether it's okay to bring up this topic or not.
Then a seriousness appeared on his face.
"Vincent, I don't want to be rude. Can you tell me about your progress right now?" Gilbert asked.
At the same time, I knitted my eyebrows. Why is asking something off-topic? But I know there must be a reason for it.
"Ahem, I'm doing fine. But I have not accumulated enough for my next breakthrough," I replied.
"That's it," Gilbert uttered.
"Vincent, you have to speed up your progress. It's for your good. You know that taboo girl had a breakthrough. So you can't be lagging behind her," Gilbert said in a solemn tone.
My heart set off storms. I knew it. So higher-ups are pointing at me. If I don't show them any progress, then I'll end up losing the support.
But the next moment, I pushed these thoughts back off my mind. I'm not worried about the progress at all. I can reveal my strength at an appropriate time.
Now I have to deal with the current problems.
"Don't worry Senior, I will hit the limit in a few months," I said in a confident tone. If everything goes according to my plan, then I'll reveal my breakthrough after completing the mission.
A hint of relief flashes in Gilbert's eyes. He doesn't want to put too much pressure on Vincent.
"Alright, you can send me mission details. I'll arrange the back door for you," After saying that he left the room leaving behind me and Carolina.
Then we both stared at each other.
"Are you insane or what?"
"Why do you want to take a dangerous mission?"
"Do you think bloodline hall will be kind enough to let you go?"
Carolina said with concern.
I shook my head before replying, "If I stay here, then they would plan something else."
Carolina was left speechless. Because Vincent's reasoning felt true to her. She then said, "He..He...He.., don't worry, I'll protect you after getting a breakthrough."
When her words reached my ears. My eyes gleamed with a twinkle. Then I looked at her to probe.
"Probe the target's details," I said to the system.

A status screen appeared in front of my eyes. Then I began to go through the information. After a few seconds of viewing it, I muttered, "As expected of Top Middle-grade talent."
A quick glint flashes in my eyes. She might even attempt a breakthrough tomorrow. So I looked at her and said, "Congratulations."
Carolina Slate's eyes lit up with surprise.
She asked, "How did you know?"
My heart skips a beat. Shaking my head, I replied, "Intuition."
Hearing that she didn't say anything. Then we spoke about a few other things before I left the hall.
16 minutes later,
I came back to my room. Since Senior Gilbert has promised to make the arrangements. Then I don't have to worry about the bloodline wizards.
Time passed,
During the night, I received confirmation from Senior Gilbert. After reading his message, I don't know how to thank him. He arranged for someone to guide me to Tolu Country.
As for the mission, he had registered my name under a special task. Apart from the Sub-Taboo Hall, no one would be able to know my mission details.
Damn! I should have followed the same in my previous mission as well. I could have avoided those troubles.
Then after pushing down these thoughts, I began to sleep. Tomorrow, I have to leave the Academy and meet that person in the Dragon Capital.
I don't know who it will be.
The following day,
I woke up earlier. After finishing the morning routine, I sat down for meditation. After sitting cross-legged on the ground. I closed my eyes and started to run the Gravity Method in mind.
Right after, the gray mana particles began to enter my body. Seeing that I began to attract more. When the man entered my body.
I guided the energy according to the mental method. After circulation, the energy settles down inside the mana core space. Then the rock-size gravity mana core absorbs refined mana.
Seeing that I continued to repeat the process. I don't know why? I feel some serious changes are going to take place in my body today.
3 hours later,
I stopped meditating after reaching the daily limit. I don't know what changed. But I feel close to the gravity element.
Then I decided to check the status panel.
"System, show me the status panel," I said to the system.

The status panel appeared before my eyes. My gaze immediately set on the gravity physique. I think my gravity magic will be powerful. Once I level up my physique.
My eyes gleamed with a twinkle. This is something worth looking forward to. I'm relying on magic spells. I don't know what changes to my gravity physique would bring.
Then my eyes set on the gravity core. Like Carolina, I too have a problem speeding up the core progression. Core formation certainly needs some treasure apart from pure mana.
