Chapter 755 Part 1: Duel against Victor Cline
From MC's perspective:
Perception Room:
The staff gave me an access code. After verification, I entered the room. From the outside, the room is no different from other practice rooms.
But inside there is a dim light illuminating the place. The door behind me closed automatically.
A few seconds later,
The illumination increased a little bit.
At the time, I got this wonderful feeling. I want to be immersed in this feeling. Suddenly, I sat down cross-legged on the platform.
I closed my eyes and began to focus on this feeling.
Slowly, I found myself in a shadow environment. But I quickly understand this is not my real body.
My real body is focusing on the wonderful feeling. A thought rose in my heart. I decided to cast the magic spell.
"Gravity Field"
A gravitational field began to appear around me. The process was slow. However, I found that I can control the mana output.
If I have better control, then I can decide the mana output and power of the magic spell.
After gaining some clarity in my thoughts, I started practicing spellcasting.
Meanwhile,
Gilbert Reese appeared in the Sub-Taboo Hall. He knows that Vincent comes to the Sub-Taboo Hall every day to report.
At this time, no one was there. Not even Carolina Slate. Seeing that Gilbert wasn't surprised.
He sat on the couch and began to wait for Vincent. But not long after, he received a message that Vincent was practicing in the perception room.
"Nice reward," Gilbert said to himself. Compared to other consumable treasures, training in perception can increase your understanding of your magic.
Considering Vincent Carey's situation right now. He feels there is no more suitable reward than the perception room.
The person who sent him the intel was credible. Each hall their a means to collect intel. So he knows the information is true.
He also knows that there is a one-hour time limit. So he decided to wait until then.
On the other hand, the Elemental Wizard students are gathering in front of the Sub-Taboo Hall.
Among them, there is one eye-catching person. He is none other than Victor Cline. Looking at the doors of the Sub-Taboo Hall, he sneered.
His challenge to Vincent was known to everyone by this point in time. So Vincent Carey has no other way than to agree. Otherwise, the Sub-Taboo Hall will be laughed at by everyone.
Shortly after, the news came to Victor as well.
"He is using the perception room," He uttered in a surprise. Hearing that the supporters behind him were shocked as well.
Core wizards are not strangers to the perception room. It's not just difficult to access the perception room.
You can't go and practice there regularly. The perception room is given to those who performed well in the mission.
So Victor envied. A hint of jealousy appeared in his eyes. Perception room can boost a wizard's strength.
Victor feels Vincent's luck was good; he got this chance before the internal competition.
Then he decided to stay here and wait to see Vincent as well.
Apart from them, many people are noticing the situation. Especially the council elders who have proposed to the dean of the academy.
This plan was part of their internal policies. Especially the Elemental Hall which wants to hug the thighs of the Sub-Taboo Hall. They don't want to miss this chance.
There are genius wizards who were paying attention as well. It's just they know the strength of the Sub-Taboo magic is no joke. Especially the wizard students who are at the same level as them.
If it were other elemental wizards, these people wouldn't waste their time. But Victor Cline is different. He is a genius student as well as a user of variation magic.
The damage output of the lava is no joke. So everyone is quietly looking forward to the upcoming scene.
One hour later,
"Ended," I uttered as I found my consciousness returning to my body.
"One hour is not enough," I revealed with a bitter smile on my face. I just practice one magic spell over and over again.
There is no time for practicing the rest of the spell. Then thinking about gains. A small smile appeared on my face.
I have realized how crude my magic control was before. Now I'm confident that I can cast more spells with minimum usage of mana.
I can greatly reduce the wastage of mana disappearing during the attack. Then I stood up and walked out of the control room.
Now, I need real-time fighting to see the results for myself.
After leaving the mission hall, I started walking towards the Sub-Taboo Hall.
When I got there. I saw there were a lot of people waiting for me. Among them, I saw Victor Cline. Instead of getting annoyed, I felt happier.
I'm thinking about fighting. And I almost forgot about him.
Victor spotted Vincent. But he feels it all of a sudden. Then thinking about the duel challenge, he confidently walked towards him.
"Vincent, time is up!"
"Now tell me what your answer is," Victor asked.
His supporters stood behind him as well.
On the other hand, I found many piercing gazes on me. Not only from these guys standing in front of me.
I realize there are also many hidden gazes. But I wanted to hear the opinion of people from the Sub-Taboo Hall.
"If you want, you can participate. We will protect you from big guys"
A mental voice reached my mind all of a sudden. Hearing that, I was shocked. The voice was so familiar. The person is none other than Senior Gilbert.
"Alright, I accept the duel. Let's fight this afternoon," I replied with a confident smile on my face.
Victor's face lit up.
"Good"
"Good, I'll see you this afternoon," He said before walking away from the place.
Others are stored away as well. In the blink of an eye, the place becomes deserted.
Then I stood before the Sub-Taboo Hall. After verification, I walked into the Hall. To my surprise, I saw Senior Gilbert instead of Carolina.
"She has gone out for a mission," Gilbert said after noticing his doubts.
Hearing that I greeted him before sitting down on the chair opposite to him.
"Senior, what do you think of this duel?" I asked straightforwardly.
Surprisingly, a challenge duel comes out of the blue. I think it's not simple.
"Sigh"
Gilbert Reese let out a sign before confessing his thoughts. Anyone can tell that people are deliberately picking Vincent.
"I think the remaining wizard hall needs a similar beating as the bloodline hall," Gilbert Reese said.
"But rest assured. There will be no backhands this time. Our powerhouse has shown presence and stand."
"No one will be stupid to offend him," He added.
Hearing that I finally felt relaxed. I didn't expect the powerhouse to stand up for me. If I'm right the powerhouse is none other than but the cripple.
He was there during inheritance acceptance. Even the dean of the academy was showing respect to him.
"Alright, you can prepare your mind peacefully here. I'll be watching from the sidelines," Gilbert Reese said.
Then I thought about giving him the Grade-8 Prism Artifact. To be honest, I haven't used it even once. This thing is not useful to me. But they don't know.
"Good, I'll return it to Elder Galvin," After saying that he disappeared from the spot.
Then I found an empty room to prepare myself for the duel. In the blink of an eye, the news reached other parts of the academy.
The staff swiftly started working on the arena. They know many people are going to come. So they have to check the arena for any shady things hidden.
Because last time the participant consumed a forbidden drug. The dean has ordered them to inspect everyone strictly.
Noon,
The spectator area is filled with people. Now the dual ground is empty. Shortly after, Victor Cline entered alone.
Right after him, a true house wizard walked in. He is going to referee.
On the other hand, I left the Sub-Taboo Hall and started walking towards the arena. On the way, I came across a few people.
I guess many of them left their work to watch the duel. Soon, I reached the place. The staff allowed me to enter.
When I entered inside. A massive arena came into view. The view was similar to last time. But last time, I didn't have time to appreciate the view.
After looking at everyone, my gaze fell on the platform.
Meanwhile,
Gilbert Reese was in Elder Galvin's mansion. They can watch it from here. Unlike Galvin, Gilbert was slightly nervous.
"What do you think?"
"Are you still worrying about those guys?" Galvin asked. He looks calm and serene.
Every time the hostile wizard halls came up with a scheme they would return with a failure.
He thinks this time would be no different.
But Gilbert is thinking about something else.
"Elder, I just saw Victor Cline's information. He is one step away from Level 6."
"Which means he is missing a law power," Gilbert said in a solemn tone.
