Chapter 305 Part One: Sub-Taboo Hall

(From MC's perspective)

The Yellow River Academy,

After completing the meditation routine, I got up from the ground and got ready to go outside. I wore the red magic robe on top of my shirt. There is a bronze color badge in a pyramid shape on the left side of my chest.

If one can look closely, one will see small words below the pyramid symbol. It is written as Outer House. This will confirm my identity as an Outer House student.

After closing the door, I walked outside. This time the staff working behind the desk is someone else. After taking one good look at him, I stride towards the cafeteria.

There is a large common cafeteria for the Outer House students from all Halls. It's not divided unlike in schools. The huge cafeteria is located inside the castle.

When I walked inside, I'm once again bewildered by the amazing scene in front of me. I can see no endpoint inside the castle. It's like you are walking inside a huge space.

Suddenly a look of realization dawned upon me. It's an absurd feeling but I believe it's the truth. The academy has so many Houses. I believe that Inner House is also situated inside the Academy as well.

It's all a work of space magic. As this feeling rises in my heart, my heart starts to beat faster. A trace of apprehension appeared in my eyes.

One thing is for sure, I can't be pompous like back in my school. At school, I managed to plunder and kill. Because there were no powerhouses back in school.

At one point, joining the police force has given some knowledge about the government. The government won't dispatch level-5 wizards or above unless there is a serious case.

But here there is no such rule. If my evil acts were caught by someone, then it will be over for me. Whether it's good or bad, I have to take each step carefully.

Because here every wizard here has some background. There are no regular humans around here. Even the staff here are level-2 wizards. And people don't mind using some means to press someone else.

After figuring it out clearly, I let out a huge sigh. By that time, I had already reached the cafeteria. Then only I noticed the number of people around here.

For a moment, I stood motionless and started to observe. I saw people of different colors and shapes. Especially the people who have beastly powers.

I see the difference. The one closest to me has a beast scale as skin. Seeing that I felt goosebumps all over my body.

Then I shrugged off and walked towards the food counter. My appearance didn't cause any waves. I slowly reached the counter and received the food plate.

Food was already placed on the plate. The most eye-catching is the mana meat of the monster.

After receiving the food plate, I choose a nearby spot to sit down. While eating the food, I'm also keeping an eye on the surroundings.

The cafeteria is so huge that there are many spots to sit down and eat. Some of the people sitting in a group on one side.

While some others gobble up their goods in a hurry. But apart from the beast wizard, it's hard to distinguish others.

It's not easy to tell which Hall they are from. Seeing that I began to look for Sub-Taboo Hall members. The academy badge is good. But It would be better if the academy had a separate badge for Hall.

When I was lost in my thoughts, I heard a bell like laughter. Hearing that I paused my movements and turned toward the source of the sound.

A girl with white long hair wearing a red magic robe from the academy is walking toward the food counter. I only see back but it's enough to understand that the girl must be one of the academy belles.

Then shaking my head, I returned to my usual position and continued to eat food. It's not wise to waste time on unnecessary things. I should focus on my own goal.

15 minutes later,

After having my breakfast, I walked towards the Sub-Taboo Hall. I already got a map of the building from the staff. One good thing is the Sub-Taboo Hall is located close to the academy library. Which saves me further trouble.

Inside the castle, there are many rooms. Each room leads to some other wide place. It might be a living Hall or Mission Hall.

Recalling the mission hall, a quick glint flashed into my eyes. This is one area I neglect to look into. After completing the other formalities, I must check the mission hall.

That's one place to earn money. By the time, I arrived in front of the Sub-Taboo Hall. But it's not what I had imagined in my mind.

Beep!

[Visitor! Show your I.D]

Hearing the voice, my eyes lit up with surprise. I touched my communication watch. A digital holographic I.D. of mine appeared above the display.

The next second, a blue color ray shot from the door and immediately scanned my I.D

Creak

The next second, the door in front of me opened. Seeing that, I quickly walked into the room.

Next second, I see a spacious living hall. It's not much worse than Cafeteria. So huge? I was shocked to the core. Why does it feel like even my dormitory building is not that big?

Suddenly I realized something. The Sub-Taboo Hall is not exclusive to the Outer House wizards. It belongs to everyone. Even Sub-taboo wizards from Elder House can be found here.

Tap!

After hearing the sound of footsteps, I retracted my thoughts.

"Hey, who are you, new guy?" A mature voice reached my ears.

Hearing that, I immediately turned towards my right side.

A middle-aged woman with short black hair and eyes is scrutinizing me from up to down.

Looking at her similar red robe. She must be a fellow Sub-taboo wizard. Feeling her gaze, I coughed up.

"Cough" "Cough"

"Hi, I'm a newcomer. I came here to register my name," I said with a smile.

The middle-aged woman's face immediately became radiant.

"Wow, we finally got a newcomer after several years," the middle-aged woman uttered in disbelief.

"Several years?" A frown appeared on my face. Her words brought me some confusion.

The middle-aged woman saw through the newcomer's thoughts.

She introduced herself by saying, "Hi, myself, Carolina Slate. Level-4 Deadly Vine wizard. A member of the Inner House."

"Plant life magic?" I blurted out in surprise. The name sounds a little bit exaggerated. Is it a title or is her magic deadly?

The middle-aged woman Carolina wasn't surprised by the newcomer's reaction.

"Yeah, it's plant life magic but it's different. I have awakened a variant type of plant magic. Which is mutant Vine magic. I can suck the vitality of others for my use," She said with a chuckle.

My pupil constricts. Sucking up vitality for her use? Terrible! My heart set off storms. How can someone plunder endless vitality from others?

What horrible magic? No wonder the magic is called a deadly Vine. She can easily kill others. What's more interesting than she can fight across ranks?

Because of such ability, her magic is classified as Sub-Taboo Class. In my opinion, it can be rated as a Taboo Class. But I don't know what the criteria for Taboo Class is.

For a moment, I was overwhelmed by thoughts.

Carolina Slate is enjoying the reaction of the newcomer. It has been a long time since someone joined their Sub-Taboo Hall. A very rare number of people awaken Sub-Taboo Class every year.

So she is glad that from now on there is a junior under her.

Carolina blinked her big eyes after realizing something. She failed to ask about the newcomer.

She asked, "What about you?"

Her words brought me to reality.

I looked at her and replied, "Senior, I'm Vincent Carey. Level-2 Gravity Wizard."

"Gravity magic" Carolina widened her eyes in disbelief.

Because the gravity magic made her recall something.

On the other hand, I'm surprised by her overreaction. If it was the outside world, I can understand the reaction. But here everyone has perverted magic power. And her mutated vine magic is not less than that of mine.

So it doesn't make any sense.

I asked, "Senior, what happened?"

Carolina retracted her thoughts and looked at Vincent with a complicated expression.

"Vincent, are you a gravity wizard?" She asked back again.

Hearing that I furrowed my eyebrows.

"Wait, don't take me wrong. There is a reason for it," Carolina hurriedly explained.

My expression eases down after that.

Carolina let out a small sigh before saying "Vincent, you are one lucky brat."

"Senior, what do you mean?" I asked.

"You are a newcomer. So let me tell you something. A long time ago in our history, one of our council elders said to have gravity magic." She said while closely observing Vincent's reaction.

The next moment, I felt a thunderclap ring in my ears. Council elder! Level-8 wizard? My throat went dry for a second. It took me a couple of seconds to digest the facts. No wonder, the academy has more than one gravity mental method.
