Chapter 556 Part 1: Various Reactions
Time passed,
Everyone is staring at the changes in the leaderboard rankings. Meanwhile, the issue of the prohibition reached the ears of the higher-ups.
The Dean Tower:
The old man slammed his desk in anger.
"This is too much," He said it out aloud. The bloodline hall is crossing the line. So much that they didn't put anyone in their eyes.
All of this is happening because of the powerhouse. They are enabling them to do it. Some people can silence them. But they are in deep sleep.
Unless there is an existential threat faced by the academy. They won't show up. So it's impossible to disturb them for a current issue.
Only the rest of the halls can do something about it. If all the halls can put pressure on the Bloodline Hall. The situation might change.
Suddenly, the old man notices someone coming to visit him.
Seeing that he allowed the person to enter inside. The person is none other than Galvin Martin. The council elder from the Sub-Taboo Hall.
The dean furrowed his eyebrows before speaking, "I know what you are here for."
"I'm going to release the statement soon. If the people from the bloodline hall act out of order. Then they will be punished."
Elder Galvin shook his head in denial.
"Dean, the situation looks different. The bloodline hall has made up their mind to eliminate that kid."
"So much that they had tampered with the prohibition of the Battle Tower," Elder Galvin said in a solemn tone.
The dean kept his expression calm before asking, "What do you suggest then?"
"Allow Vincent Carey to enter the inheritance room," Elder Galvin replied without holding back.
His words came to a bolt of a blue. If any outsiders hear it, it would cause havoc in the academy.
The dean left speechless. He had promised before that If Vincent Carey cleared the Trial. Then he would allow him to enter that place.
But that kid is currently undergoing trials.
"There are 2 more days left," The dean said.
Elder Galvin said, "That kid came this far. It won't be hard for him to clear the remaining floors."
"If you allow him to enter now, then the bloodline hall won't be able to do anything. He might get a chance to improve his strength," He added further.
Elder Galvin is lobbying hard for Vincent. But the final decision is up to the Dean.
On the other hand, the dean wasn't convinced.
He asked, "Can't you protect him for 2 days?"
"Do you think it's easy to talk to those powerhouses? They have already started pressuring. But if the kid clears the remaining floors, then naturally he would qualify," The dean added further.
Elder Galvin appeared to be disappointed. But it can't be helped. There is some truth to his words. There are 2 days left for Vincent's trial to complete.
Maybe he should do what he suggests.
Then he left the place shortly after.
Not long after an announcement came from the dean's office.
It's about the prohibition failure and conduct of Luke Wallace. Luke Wallace was ordered to receive the punishment for breaking the Academy rules. Whereas the prohibition failure issue will be sorted out quickly.
When both news came out. It has shocked everyone. Nobody thought that the dean was going to punish the bloodline hall member.
Because of this, the bloodline wizards are worried. They don't know what type of punishment Wallace will get.
While this was happening at one end. Something else is going on at the Taboo Hall.
Taboo Hall:
Mike Curtis was the man behind Henry Barlow. Ever since he had received a green signal from the higher-ups. He had tried various ways to block Vincent Carey from entering the Battle Tower.
But nothing has worked out so far. Even Henry Barlow died because of this. When he was pondering, he received a message from his eyeliner stationed in front of the Sub-Taboo Hall.
Seeing the pop-up message in his communication watch. A hint of surprise flashes in his eyes. Because he knows that nothing is interesting happening out there.
Vincent Carey is currently in the Battle Tower. Apart from that girl, no one else usually lives in the Sub-Taboo Hall.
Out of curiosity, he opened the text message to read it.
Right after, he wasn't able to contain his joy.
"Ha...Ha...Ha.," Mike laughed out aloud. He didn't expect Mark Talley to return from the Trip.
He is aware of Mark Talley's details. The plague magic was extremely destructive. The person should have joined their Taboo Hall.
But due to some reason. The Sub-Taboo managed to recruit him first.
"I should first inform the teacher. Maybe we can use him in our plans," Mike got excited.
The Bloodline Hall:
Luke Wallace saw the dean's notice in his communication watch. He couldn't help but grit his teeth in anger.
Elders assured him that the dean wouldn't be saying anything. But right now he feels enraged.
Then he notices other wizards are looking at him. Seeing that he controlled his anger.
"I won't be going anywhere," After saying that he sat back in his seat.
There was no fight between him and Vincent Carey.
Vincent Carey had slipped past him to enter the Battle Tower. So he got no chance to injure him.
So Luke thinks he might get a light scolding. But even for that, he is not willing to face it.
While others are gossiping among themselves. Luke was one of their top-ranked. So this news is quite sensational.
They can't help but anticipate what's going to happen.
...
Dragon City(Capital):
Somewhere around the deserted street. Inside a dilapidated house, 2 people are discussing something serious. Like their lives depend on this matter.
They are level-6 wizards sent by the Dark League to kill Vincent Carey.
"What are we going to do now?" The scar-faced wizard asked. He has a knife mark on the left side of his face.
The person sitting opposite him remained silent for a moment before speaking, "Ren, be patient."
