From MC's perspective:
1 pm, noon,
Inside the room, I was reading the articles. All of a sudden, I got a call from Elder Galvin. Seeing that I sat up straight and attended the call.
[Come to the Sub-Taboo Hall]
After hearing the voice, I got up from the bed. Then I changed to the academy clothes quickly. I don't know why he is calling me.
A hint of curiosity appeared in my eyes. Then I left the room.
Soon, I reached the Sub-Taboo Hall.
Creak!
After verifying my identity, I entered inside. Then I saw Elder Galvin was already here. Apart from him, Senior Gilbert and Sister Carolina are present as well.
"Take your seat," Galvin said.
Hearing that I sat on the chair.
"As you know tomorrow is the start of the competition. So far the academy has not done anything including not permitting me to go outside," Galvin said.
"There is a reason for it. You never know what the dark league will do. So considering the safety of everyone. Some of the council elders will be accompanying you tomorrow."
"They are level-8 wizards. Even if trouble comes, they are capable of handling it, "He added.
Hearing that I felt added security in my heart. Besides, I did have a little complaint earlier. But not anymore. I have put my mind on reading books these past few days.
It's also good to enrich my knowledge.
"Elder, are you going as well?" Gilbert asked.
"Not me. I have some other mission to do," Galvin replied.
"Oh, I almost forgot about it," Galvin said before taking out a beautiful silver box from the storage bracelet.
He then put it on the table.
Seeing that everyone's expression changes.
"Elder, what is it?" Carolina couldn't help but ask.
Hearing that my gaze set on the silver box.
Galvin said, "Vincent, last time. You have almost lost your life because of me. So I brought this gift for you as compensation."
Hearing that, everyone was shocked. Elder Galvin's gesture surprised everyone.
"Elder, you don't have to do it," I replied.
I was shocked in my heart. To think he didn't forget about it. Maybe he is feeling guilty about himself. But if he knows what truly happened, then how would he react?
I was there the whole time, hiding in the Gregor Mansion during the turmoil of the Gregor Mansion.
"No, I mean it. The thing inside will be helpful for you," Elder Galvin said.
"Why are you hesitating?" Senior Gilbert asked.
Then I accepted the silver box and placed it inside my storage bracelet.
Carolina was a little envious. It was seen through by Galvin.
"Don't worry, I will give you something. If you accomplish something in the future," Galvin said.
The next second, Carolina's face lit up with light.
"Vincent, how confident are you?" Galvin asked.
The next second, I found everyone's gazes on me.
Cough!
I let out a small cough before saying, "I have seen the details of the top 10 wizards of the other 2 academies. But I'm not sure how strong their magic was."
"The degree of variation of elemental magic is high. Many of the Royal Force Wizards on the list have variant elemental magic powers. It's hard to judge their strength."
"On top of it, the Weapon Palace Wizards are different compared to our Weapon Hall Wizards. I have the least experience fighting against such wizards," He revealed his opinion.
A hint of approval flashes in Elder Galvin's eyes. He was aware of Vincent's daily activities. Apart from spending time in the library, he has spent most time in his room.
He wasn't surprised by that. Because other wizards on the list are not different. Because of the ban, no one could go outside.
"Alright, you are a control-type wizard. As long as your magic is strong. It doesn't matter what the opponent's awakened magic is. "
"As long as you don't come across troublesome people like Mike Curtis. You can go smoothly," Galvin replied.
Hearing that I don't know whether to laugh or cry. If I want I can easily defeat Mike Curtis. But I'm used to being low-key.
"Mike Curtis is a Taboo Wizard. I'm sure the other 2 academies have someone on the list to tackle him," Senior Gilbert said.
Hearing that everyone started to talk about the pros and cons of the wizards on the list. Everyone shared their insights.
20 minutes later,
The discussion came to an end. Elder Galvin left right away.
"Okay, Vincent. See you tomorrow here," Gilbert said before disappearing from the spot.
Only Carolina and I are left.
"I can't wait for the duel to start. I heard that the rewards will be announced tomorrow," Carolina said.
"I don't know about the rewards. But I guess it must be good and useful," I replied to her.
Then we spoke for a few more minutes before leaving.
Soon, I returned to my room. After changing into comfortable clothes. I appeared in the Gregor Mansion.
Swoosh!
Then I took out the silver box from the storage bracelet. What is it inside? Is there any artifact?
A hint of curiosity appeared in my eyes. Then I opened the box.
Sshhh!
A dazzling bright purple fruit is inside the box. Looking at the heart-shaped marks all over the fruits. My eyes widened in disbelief. I have seen this fruit mentioned in the botany books.
This fruit is called the Hundred Heart Fruit. It comes under the category of mysterious fruits in the world. The fruit has only one benefit. Which is to improve all types of senses in a wizard's body.
Including the visionary senses. It may not seem useful but it's a miraculous fruit for the rogue wizards and wandering wizards whose home is the wild and dangerous places.
The rogue and wandering wizards need sharp senses and skills to survive in the wild. Unlike me, they don't have a system.
So their sharp senses help them to avoid the danger. Even though I have the system. I still want to consume the fruit. In that way, I can avoid many suspicions.
