Dark League HQ:
Inside the dark tower, the old man shrouded in shadows is looking at the reports of the Adamont Canyon.
The Meteor Country's Supreme Wizard is keen to know the news as well. But the current situation was not favorable to the dark league.
First, they lost the powerful treasure. Second, the Gravity Wizard Vincent disappeared mysteriously. Before they could find the answer.
The Adamont Canyon was filled with wizards from other forces.
The old man was all alone in the dark room. Except, for a small lamp on his table. Which is giving enough light to read the reports.
There is no hint of modern technology here. The old man is doing things that are similar to the old era. The secret information is recorded in the magic scroll. There was no usage of a communication watch whatsoever.
The old man picked up the last scroll sent by one of their elite members. The elite member is none other than Evil Hand Ethan.
"Other 2 academies are there as well!"
"Even the adventure union has sent their elite team," He muttered to himself. Everyone is well aware of the wolf ambition of the Adventure Union.
They never miss a piece of the pie in countries all over the world. Which is a similar case. When he saw the suggestions made by Ethan. The old man squinted his eyes.
For the dark league, it's better as many high-ranking wizards die in that place. So he is satisfied by Ethan's suggestion. At the same time, they lose nothing.
But Ethan was the only level-8 wizard. Which was not enough to confront other forces. So he is thinking about sending nearby level-8 members there.
After closing the scroll, he picked up another magic scroll to send a message.
....
Adamont Canyon:
Boom!
Nora Baker revived the brunt of the attack. The aftermath swept away the tent, destroying everything.
Pfff!
From MC's perspective:
"What the f@ck is happening outside?" I said to myself, looking at the control mirror. The range was not wide. But I can see the confrontation taking place.
Earlier, I thought about escaping at night time silently. But the current situation is unfavorable to me. Looking at the scale of destruction, I think the confrontation between the high-ranking wizards is taking place.
There are more wizards here than before.
I touched my temple in worry.
"Seriously, when will I get the chance to leave?" I asked myself.
Suddenly, a daring idea comes to mind.
The system can shield my presence from others. Even if I appear outside, no one can sense me. Unless I use the gravity magic.
The use of a gravity spell will expose my presence. The attacks are taking place close to the explosion site. But no one was on the spot.
After rubbing my chin, I made a firm decision. I should use this chance to escape. Otherwise, anything is possible in the future. Forces might impose a lockdown here or permanently put some kind of ban here.
I don't want to be trapped here until the end of my life.
After gaining some clarity, I looked at my uniform. It will expose my identity. Then I stood up from the seat and walked out of the control room to change my dress.
Fortunately, I had improved the mansion long ago. There is a set of clothes in the bedroom. I can use those to protect my identity.
10 minutes later,
I changed into a pair of black shirts and pants. On top of it, I wore an old black mage robe. After getting everything ready, I wore a mask.
Swoosh!
Then, I appeared outside, exactly on the ground of the blown-away room. One after another, I hear the explosive sound and feel powerful spell attacks and coercion taking place on the other side.
The coercion was so strong that it sent cold shivers on my back.
"I should escape," I gritted my teeth. Then I looked around. There are no more hidden passages except flattened ground and rubble.
If I fly away in this situation, it will expose me. Then I shook my head before starting to rush out of this place.
