Chapter 323 Meeting With True House Wizard Gilbert

(From MC's Perspective)

10 A.M

Right after having breakfast, I got a message from my senior sister. She wanted my presence in Sub-Taboo in 10 minutes. My eyes flickered with a slight glint.

I vaguely guessed what this is for. Then I hurriedly walked towards the Sub-Taboo Hall.

A few minutes later,

When I entered the hall. I see a middle-aged man sitting opposite Carolina. A sudden realization dawned upon me. He is another senior from the same hall.

The middle-aged man appeared to be in his thirties. Unlike the academy's red robe, he is dressed in a normal shirt and pants with a black robe on top of it.

If not for the academy's logo printed on the robe, I would have mistaken him for someone else. He looked tall and sturdy with a muscular body. His skin color is tanned. He is probably 6ft tall in height.

While I'm scrutinizing him, the person is also observing me. I took back my gaze seconds later. It would be rude If I continued to stare at him.

"Cough" "Cough"

Carolina coughed twice to bring back attention.

Hearing that I turned towards her.

"Vincent, He is our senior brother. One of the three true house members in our hall," Carolina Slate said.

"Ha...Ha...Ha..," The middle-aged man let out a laugh.

"Finally, I get to meet you, Vincent Carey. Some time ago, I heard the news about you from John."

"Our hall is lucky to have another sub-taboo wizard. Especially, a gravity wizard like you is said to be powerful in Sub-Taboo Category," He said with a smile.

At the same time, my eyes lit up with surprise. He is one rank higher than Elder John. I'm slowly digesting the facts. Elder John and Kate Cohens are just level-5 wizards.

But the person in front of me is a True House member.

"Oh, yes. I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Gilbert Reese, Level-6 Shock force wizard. A True House member," Gilbert introduced himself in a calm tone.

But each piece of information fell like a thunderclap in my ears. Shock force? My heart set off storms. The Shock force is similar to the Gravitational force. Both are sub-element forces of nature.

I heard shock force wizards have harder roads compared to me. But I don't know what the exact difficulties are other than a lack of mental methods.

But I have to say the senior is extremely powerful. I can't imagine the destruction of level-6 shock force magic.

A trace of apprehension appeared in my eyes. But the next second, it immediately swept away. I recovered myself in an instant.

A thoughtful look appeared on Gilbert's face. He said, "Carolina told me about your request. I have an old magic cloak with me that can hide your mana breath. It can conceal your details from the prying eyes of a level-5 wizard."

"But level 6 and above the magic cloak won't work," He added further.

Hearing that a surprising glint flashed in my eyes. Magic Cloak? It sounds good. But I mostly want to hide my details from the old powerhouses in the academy.

I'm yet to come up with a suitable answer for my increase in wizard levels. Thinking about the future hurdles, I sighed inwardly.

Carolina sees Vincent's expression is a little down. "Is he not satisfied with the magic cloak?" She cried in her heart. It's already a big favor for Vincent to get help from a True House member.

When it comes to other halls, it's not easy for the outer house and inner house wizards to see a core house member. But here in Sub-Taboo hall is different.

Apart from the Elder level powerhouse we can easily meet and discuss with True House members.

Gilbert also noticed Vincent's expression. He asked," Are you not satisfied with the magic cloak?"

Hearing that I retracted my thoughts and realized my foolishness. Then without changing my expression, I replied, "No, I'm just thinking about those media posts."

"Media post?" Gilbert uttered in confusion.

But Carolina immediately realized Vincent is talking about those smearing him viciously on an online site.

She then quickly explained ins and outs to senior Gilbert.

A quick glint flashes in Gilbert's eyes a few minutes later.

He is considered to be part of the upper echelon of the academy. As a level-6 wizard, he has access to crucial information. He is also no stranger to politics between different halls.

So it is normal for Vincent's appearance to unsettle them. Fortunately, Vincent is a newcomer; some halls can't act directly and target an outer house member.

Everything is safe inside the academy. But it can't be said the same when Vincent goes outside for a mission.

"Should I inform Elder House members?" A thought rose in Gilbert's heart. But he thinks things are not that simple. It's been a week but Vincent is doing fine.

Which shows that different halls were restraining themselves. He had never heard of this online abuse before. It also means that someone is deliberately doing it to lure Vincent out.

If Vincent responds to their actions, then it will give a good opportunity for others to target him. And it shows that someone from the higher-ups is already aware of Vincent and observing many of Halls's actions.

After gaining some clarity, he revealed a small smile on his face. He finally understood why various halls were restraining themselves.

It's because Vincent is a Gravity Wizard. Apart from the late gravity ancestor, the academy has seen no other gravity wizards over centuries.

So that the old powerhouses may treat Vincent as a successor for the late gravity ancestor.

But the next second, he shook his head in denial. Gilbert realizes he is thinking too much. Vincent is still an outer house member. It is still too early to say that.

Vincent should get into the Inner House as soon as possible. Because there are hundreds of wizards in the Outer House. Only after getting an inner house, you are considered to be part of the academy in the true sense.

"Vincent, for now, don't take any mission. Just try to become an inner house member as soon as possible," He said in a solemn tone. He doesn't want any mishap to happen to Vincent before becoming an Inner House member.

After saying that, he immediately left the hall. It's rare for Level-6 wizards to sit and talk with juniors for a minute.

Carolina is glad that the senior came here after her request.

At the same time, the senior's words echoed in my ears. He insisted on becoming an Inner House member before going out for the mission.

Is there any meaning behind it? A trace of apprehension appeared in my eyes. Well, I'm close to touching the limit. So in a few days, I will get the breakthrough opportunity.

Then I placed the magic cloak in my storage bracelet before thanking my senior sister for her help. Like she said earlier, the True House senior didn't seem too rude and arrogant.

I know the impact of a level-6 wizard powerhouse back home. They are considered to be unimaginable existences. But here I had a casual conversation with him.

But the next second, I remembered the shock magic.

"Sister, what about the shock magic?

"Is that magic powerful?" I asked out of curiosity.

Caroline's eyes shone with bright light. She nodded her head in excitement before replying, "A few months ago, a level-7 power wizard was killed by Senior Gilbert."

My heart skips a beat. Level-7? That too a power-type wizard. My heart feels turbulent. I know the working of shock force magic.

To think shock force can cause damage while fighting across ranks. It shows the horror of magic. Gilbert is one of the three True House members in our Hall.

Then what about the other two? Maybe I should check it out later. After saying goodbye to her, I walked back to my room.

The Special Class will start in two hours. So I decided to meditate in the meantime

Two hours later,

I used the same toll booth to reach the special class. When the toll booth stopped, I walked out calmly.

I see many students coming and rushing toward the building. Then without waiting further, I walked towards the gate.

As time goes on, everyone is gathering in front of the metal gate like in the first class. Mentor Lion will appear after the last person.

On the other hand, I feel a tingling sensation all over my body. The wizards' gazes make me uncomfortable.

Because many of their gazes were filled with envy and hatred. I casually glanced in one direction where most of the gazes were from.

"Elemental Hall," I mumbled under my breath.

Swish!

Suddenly a beautiful silhouette appeared. Seeing her a quick glint flashed in my eyes. Level-4? Mana coming from her is stronger this time.

Coincidentally, she turned toward me and our gazes met again. "Hmmm," My eyes lit up with surprise. Because I see a trace of indifference in her eyes like she doesn't care.

Last time her gazes were filled with curiosity and scrutiny. What happened now? Is it because of level-4 strength that she feels superior now? My mouth curved into a gentle arc.
