From MC’s Perspective:
Underground storage room,
As ti passed, I went through all the unidentified items. But not one useful item was found. So when it was noon, I exited the storage room.
I have decided to et the old man Martin. He seems to be a Forbidden Wizard. He has more experience. Maybe he can give so advice.
After appearing on the first floor, I called Manager Lara and told her. Knowing that I’m going to the Brothers’ collection shop. She didn’t stop .
I wore a mask on my face and exited the Silver Tower. Then I went outside. Just as I thought about going to the main street.
[Ding! Warning]
[Many unkind gazes were found.]
The system voice sounded in my mind. Hearing that my expression changes. I had thought there would be no trouble.
But it seems like the Silver Tower continues to attract attention. If I’m right then these people are spies from various forces.
"What to do?" I asked myself.
A good idea cos to my mind. I’ll do sothing after going to the Central Plaza.
Then I started walking towards the street. Soon, I ca to the main street. But those spying eyes were still upon .
I quietly waited for the flying taxi to co.
Shortly afterwards,
A white flying taxi landed in front of . I told the driver about the destination. Hearing that the driver agreed imdiately.
I opened the door to enter. Then I sat in the back seat of the car. The driver, who was a middle-aged man, nodded before starting to drive the car.
The flying car hovers above the ground. Then it started moving towards the Central Plaza in mid-air.
On the other hand, the spies were confused. They don’t know who ca outside earlier. Since the person was wearing a mask. They couldn’t see his face.
When they tried to probe the person. They couldn’t see through. So they didn’t pursue the matter further.
About 20 minutes later,
The flying car dropped off at the Central Plaza. I paid the fare before going towards the bookstore.
Surprisingly, there are no more warnings from the system. It appears that spies didn’t follow . It brought relief.
Then I continued to walk towards the bookstore.
Shortly afterwards,
I arrived in front of the bookstore. The Old Man Martin was behind the desk. Seeing that I opened the door to walk inside.
My arrival woke him up. Upon seeing , the old man stood up from his seat. He saw through my mask at a glance.
"Kid, you are alive. That’s great," Martin said with a smile.
He was happy right now.
Before I could open my mouth. Old Man Martin went inside and asked the custors to leave. He is going to close down the shop.
The custors were shocked. They don’t know what’s going on. But they can’t talk back to the old man. The old man seems to have a background and he was strong.
So they left without saying anything. Old man Martin then changed the board to close the shop down.
Then he returned to Vincent Carey and brought him inside where the sofa was.
"Sit," He said.
Hearing that I sat on the sofa comfortably. I don’t know what to do. If the old man asks about the recent whereabouts.
Martin sits opposite. Then he looks at Vincent Carey with a deep gaze. His eyes flashed with approval.
"Since you have returned. It ans the Wind Elental Tower has lost this ti," Martin said.
Hearing that my heart stirred. Now, I’m convinced that the old man knows about the inside stuff.
"Elder, do you know what’s going on?" I asked.
Martin raised his eyebrows.
He asked," Didn’t your Forbidden Wizards explain it to you?"
I shook my head.
Martin’s eyes condensed. He doesn’t know what’s going on with the Forbidden Wizards of the Silver Tower. Since he has a good opinion about this kid.
He has decided to fill him in with so information that was not secret.
"Don’t tell anyone about this. Including your Silver Tower people," Martin said.
Then he further added by saying," As far as I know the Wind Elental Tower had decided to act against the Silver Tower long ago."
"Even before you join. Your challenge duel against the Black Tower Wizard Seed has created an opportunity."
"Quite many Black Tower Wizards had a good relationship with the Wind Elental Tower."
Hearing that I don’t know what to say. It’s not a happy feeling to hear that I happened to be a scapegoat for them.
I’m not going to forget this experience. If I have the opportunity in the future, I’m going to pay them back for sure.
"Kid, what happened?" Martin asked.
Hearing that I recovered my thoughts and turned towards the Elder.
"I don’t understand. The magic towers are part of the Mage Union. Then why this infighting?" I asked him.
Martin cracked a wide grin. He didn’t expect the kid to ask him such a straightforward question.
"You know the answers to your question. Why does everyone fight each other?" Martin replied.
Hearing that I was taken aback. Then a very common answer cos to my mind.
"Is it for the resources?" I asked him.
"Spot on!" Martin uttered in surprise.
Hearing that my heart was in turmoil. I had thought after coming to the Mage Union. There would be no fight for the resources.
But it appears that I was wrong. As we climb up the ladder, the fight for the resources is severe.
"It appears that you understood. Soone at a high level in your Silver Tower got their hands on precious outer space resources, which soone at the sa level was eyeing."
"All of this trouble from the Wind Elental Tower was to force this person to hand over the resources," Martin said in a solemn tone.
Hearing that my heart was in turmoil. A lot of things started to make sense right now. No wonder, they quieted down after so ti.
But they were the ones who suffered a lot in the Forbidden Area.
