Chapter 156 Meeting Other Team At Branch Office
(From MC\'s Perspective )
What\'s up with that, Chairman? The new developments have been confusing so far. I can see the Chairman is trying to make some changes. But stopping the Challenge duel did not sit well with me.
I saw the girl named Judy Owens go to meet the chariman.
Seeing that students begin to gossip around here, At that time, I recalled her magic ability called "Glass Body." I guess this must be another physique variant. But I don\'t know her reason for staying in Class A3.
There must be another secret reason behind this. Talking about intelligence info collection, I turned towards Fatty, who was sitting beside me.
I asked, "Lucas, Do you know anything about her? "
Hearing that, the fatty shook his head in denial. "I never paid attention to other classes before. But don\'t worry, I\'ll collect intel of Class A3 asap, "Lucas Brad said, and when he said that, a surprise filled his face.
A quick glint flashes in my eyes.
I feel Class A3 is not that special. It must be something to do with Judy Owens. The only person who could clarify my doubts is Ms. Rivers.
I\'m close to her compared to my class teacher, Eric.
Suddenly, I heard a coughing sound.
"Cough" "Cough"
I saw it was from a combat teacher.
Mr. Freeman coughed to attract everyone\'s attention.
Everyone stopped talking and shifted their attention towards him.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Mr. Freeman said, "I just received a message from management. The challenge duel is over. We should return to our class now. "
Students felt dissatisfied. They never imagined that a simple event would have such twists and turns.
At this time, Frank Lambert opened his mouth to comment, "It\'s better to return to class than to watch the boring duels."
His words were immediately supported by his friends. Already, students were dissatisfied that they were not allowed to duel. Since it\'s an order from the school\'s chairman, they have no other choice but to sit back and watch.
Now that it\'s also changed, the students felt it was good to return to the class. The opinions of students were turned upside down. With that, the small commotion also settled down quickly.
Mr. Freeman nodded and led everyone back to the class.
10 minutes later,
Class A1,
Everyone returned back to their seats. My mind is filled with so many thoughts. Even after coming back here, I couldn\'t help but think about the next head master.
Then I dispelled these thoughts and continue to mind my own business. Mr. Eric Wallace stepped inside the class.
Upon seeing the disappointment on the students\' faces, he doesn\'t know how to comfort them. Mr. Eric also didn\'t expect such a move from Chairman Benjamin.
Some students raised their questions about the cancelled challenge duel. But Mr. Eric said, "Seriously, I\'m just like you." I\'m not informed about anything. It\'s all the Chairman\'s doing. "
The students became silent after hearing his words. Then Mr. Wallace continued to conduct the lecture.
...
Police Headquarters,
Clinic Room,
"Dead!" Wizard Mitchell pronounced Tyler Dixon\'s death. A promising level-4 power mage died unjustly due to forbidden poison.
The news immediately swept away the building like a storm.
A crowd quickly began to gather in front of the clinic.
Mr. Mitchell placed Tyler Dixon\'s corpse inside an ice coffin. Most of the body parts were eroded by purple poisoning. The ice coffin will preserve his remains.
After sealing the ice coffin, he let out a deep sigh.
He waited for Wizard Billy to arrive. But unfortunately, he still hasn\'t come. The only good thing that happened recently was that the department head of battle hall left for his mission.
Because of that, a huge burden was lifted off his shoulder. He didn\'t worry about the other level-5 wizards in this building.
Because he already had good relations with them.
Seeing the gathering crowd, he told his assistants to take care of them. He was not in the mood to return to his cabin.
He doesn\'t know what\'s wrong with Wizard Billy. But he had reported everything about Captain Tyler. And now he is going to give him Tyler Dixon\'s death report.
The news is quickly covered. The Ghost knows when it will leak out. Wizard Mitchell can only hope for their timely return.
…
Bellbrook City,
Alan Pitts used his extreme speed to reach his team members. After escaping from that place , he had already contacted them.
15 minutes later,
At the place of air car landing platforms, three people are standing together. They were seemingly waiting for someone.
Soon, a silhouette appeared in front of them in the blink of an eye.
Mr. Alan Pitts\' sudden appearance caught them off guard. The force of his high speed quickly swept away the nearby surroundings.
His expression turned ugly immediately after that. It\'s not wise to use magic in broad daylight; it will attract attention. Mr. Alan\'s eyes signalled others to follow him.
They left the place and halted at some random spot.
"Vice Captain, Are you alright?" Jimmy Herman asked. His face shows that he is happy with his safe return. He knew the Department Head wouldn\'t disappoint them. He kept his promise by saving Alan.
"Thanks to the department head, I\'m fine," Alan said.
Then he took a good glance at three of them. After knowing that they were safe and sound without injury, Alan breathed in relief.
Earlier, he made a terrible miscalculation. Leon Willy\'s mana alone froze him on the spot. Because of him, his team members also suffered.
It\'s good that the department head came on time. Otherwise, he couldn\'t imagine the result.
Seeing the gulity expression on his face, Jimmy Herman looked at Lottie and Pam Levine.
"Sigh."
After sighing, Lottie Ewing decided to change the topic. "What\'s happening out there?"
Hearing that, Alan Pitts dispelled his thoughts.
Then he replied, "The Department Head has taken total control of the situation. He overpowered Leon with great force. level-5 mana pressure is something else, "when he said that, a look of longing appeared in his eyes.
For them, Leon Willy is a terrifying existence. But before becoming department head, Leon Willy couldn\'t lift a finger.
He realises that it was due to the vast difference in level-4 and level-5 limits.
All three of them took seconds to digest the fact. Because of Leon Willy\'s existence itself, it\'s a huge pressure on them.
"I hope he kills him straight away," Lottie said.
Alan didn\'t say anything. But in his heart, he knows it\'s impossible. From a larger perspective, the department head might use him to find the whereabouts of the other two rogue wizards.
Unlike three of them, Pam Levine didn\'t open her mouth. Because from the beginning, something was bugging her mind.
Alan notices that something is troubling her.
He asked, "Pam, What\'s wrong? Do you have anything to ask? "
Pam hesitated a little bit, then she bit her lip in helplessness.
Seeing such a sudden change in her, Lottie quickly asked her, "Is there anything troubling you?"
Pam Levine nodded. She raised her head to look at three of them. "Are you guys forgetting about one important thing? Why did we come here in the first place?
Her words struck everyone\'s heart.
"The cure," Jimmy said.
Lottie shakes her head. She knew everyone realised this at this point of time.
But it\'s hard to accept the fact. She didn\'t have the courage to say it openly. Then she looked at Alan Pitts, hoping that he would put an end to this matter.
Alan Pitts felt great pain in his heart. He was the one who went to investigate that hotel in Little Mint Town. If he had spent a little bit of time over there, it would have been possible for him to collect crucial information.
The tragedy could have been avoided and the team would have changed the plans later.
Images of Tyler Dixon\'s flashes before his eyes. He clenches his fists in anger and frustration. Seeing his state, the three of them were worried.
Jimmy Herman quickly thought of something and said, "We should join with others at the branch office. The department head might give his next order. "
His words made them realise they didn\'t have time to talk. Alan nodded, and then the four of them decided to find an air taxi to travel in. They don\'t want to attract the public\'s attention by using their magic.
20 minutes later,
The air car landed near the branch office. After paying the amount, four of them stepped outside.
Soon, they found Ms. Eva and her team in the waiting area.
Upon noticing their presence, Ms. Eva quickly got up from her seat. Her eyes lit up with surprise at seeing Alan Pitts. At the same time, she felt relief in her heart.
When they came in front of her, Ms. Eva asked, "Is he the one?" She was not sure whether the enemy was Leon Willy or not.
Lottie understands her meaning. "Yes, the same one who poisoned Captain Tyler," In response, she replied.
Betty Fry, Shelly Lang, and Noel Grant. Three of them were surprised. It\'s still hard for them to believe that Alan and his team were able to escape from such an existence.
Alan Pitts said, "It\'s all thanks to our department head. He arrived on time to confront Leon Willy. "
