Star Hotel:
An old man with short white hair and a beard entered the hotel. He was the manager. He imdiately walked over to the admin staff.
"Manager, glad that you are here," the admin staff mber said with a smile.
The manager smiled and asked, "Tell . Do you recognize them?"
The staff mber shook his head before saying, "Two powerful wizards leading a masked man in the middle. I couldn't see through the strength of the masked man either."
"He... He... He... you couldn't even see through him? Then the masked man's strength could be Level-8 or above. He could be the young master of a certain Wizard family," the manager said with a smile.
"It looks like the auction is going to attract many big fishes. It's ti to inform Young Master Sutton," he muttered in a low tone that only he could hear.
But he didn't know soone else had heard his words.

From MC's Perspective:
Inside the Gregor Mansion, I took the gray object outside and broke it. The next second, I found a small black stele inside with characters written over it.
Fortunately, I knew the Old Tongue. As I began to read it, I realized it was no ordinary spell.
This magic spell is at the level of a Supre Wizard. I can't use this magic spell at my current level.
From the little description ntioned there, the spell required the power of gravity rules. My current gravity rule power was not enough.
My eyes flashed with disappointnt. All of my spells were low-level spells, but their models were updated automatically because of the system.
So, I didn't have to look for new spells every ti. But this ti, I got a Supre Grade magic spell, and I can't use it.
I had to admit, Elder Dana must have spent her effort to find this treasure. If she knew I could upgrade my spells, she would be shocked.
Then, I collected the magic spell into the system space. Fortunately, Elder Dana gave millions of Super Grade Mana Stones. I don't have to do tasks for a few years.
Next, I went to bed to rest.
The following day,
I appeared outside and started to get ready. I decided to explore the city. I think there are two days left before the auction.
It's necessary to find a suitable place for my company.
About 20 minutes later,
I walked out of the room wearing a mask. Then I began walking towards the living area. I arrived there and saw Patrick and Otto having a serious discussion.
"What happened?" I asked as I pulled out a chair and sat down.
Patrick and Otto imdiately greeted .
"Master, I got surprise news for you," Otto said.
Patrick wore a rather serious expression.
"What is it?" I asked.
Otto then said, "I heard the phone conversation of the manager. He spoke to the Young Master of the Sutton Family."
"The sa person who t with Black Tower Wizard Rowan earlier," he added.
Hearing that, my eyes flickered with surprise. I had just found the image-capturing stone, and now I was hearing about the Young Master of the Sutton Family. Is there any connection between the two?
"Master, not only that, but the Black Tower Wizard Rowan entered the hotel not long ago," Patrick said from the side.
"What?"
"He is here as well," I muttered.
"Did you find anything else?" I asked Otto.
"Master, I heard many important figures have co. But everyone hid their identity. Even the manager is having difficulties," Otto said.
"Is there any news about the Magic Lords and Forbidden Wizards?" I asked.
Patrick and Otto looked at each other.
"Master, I haven't heard anything. Maybe if we walk around the city, I could gather so news," Otto said.
"Besides collecting intel, we should look for a place to buy. If there are old businesses willing to sell, we should buy one," I said to them.
"Master, we can look for places. But I suggest buying after the end of the auction. If we buy any place during this ti, it will attract unwanted attention."
"We may beco a target before the auction," Patrick said.
Hearing that, my eyes glinted with understanding. Patrick was right. It's necessary to find a place first; we can buy later.
"Alright, let's go and explore the city," I said to them.
The two of them were already ready before . They were not old, dying n anymore; they looked energetic right now.
Creak!
We walked out of the room and headed to the lift.
A few minutes later,
We reached the lobby. The manager and admin staff were there. Upon seeing us, they were stunned.
The admin staff was respectful right away. But the manager confird sothing with his eyes before acting respectfully.
"Two Supre Wizards leading a masked man, a Level-9 Wizard. Which family's son has co out?" The manager thought.
He had told Young Master Sutton about the trio. The Young Master was intrigued and ordered him to collect their details.
But he didn't know how to do it. So, he told the staff to keep an eye on the trio. However, he didn't know that every word was heard by soone else.
We left the hotel and started walking on foot.
"Master, the manager seems to be working for the Sutton Family," Otto said.
"I don't know what they are planning. I hope they reveal sothing soon," I muttered.
Next, I started paying attention to the shops. This part of the street was the main street. You wouldn't find any cheap or old businesses here.
So, we asked around and found so information. We left the busy hotel street and headed towards the outer ring of the city.
The city is small but still has an inner and outer ring distinction. The inner ring is rich, and the outer ring is filled with old businesses and local residents.
As ti passed, I noticed there was a clear infrastructure difference. There were no more towering buildings.
The streets had courtyard houses.
For so reason, these people were not driven out yet.
The mana here is sparse to begin with. I don't know what happened to this place. The mana veins here must have been exhausted.
