From MC’s perspective:

The Weden City,

After looking at the map for a long time. I selected a safe route to travel. Then closing the hologram, I started to get ready for the journey.

One hour later,

I walked out of the inn. And started to walk in the north direction. The majority of the routes leading to the former capital had a check post before them.

Guards are watching over the border.

But my current path had the least amount of wizard activities. Because the terrain itself poses difficulties.

While walking I keep an eye on the surroundings. If there is a killing intent or threat, then my system would pick it up. So I’m carefully moving on my path.

After several minutes of walking, the people’s activities got reduced as there was no household and shops beyond the city limit.

Finally, I crossed the border and entered the area filled with abundant vegetation. To get to the former capital. It would take at least 2 days from this path.

If it was a train journey, I could cover it in a day. Then pushing down these thoughts, I began to enter deeply by carefully following the path on the map.

Time went by,

I crossed many hurdles on the way by clearing out the plant monsters and deadly insects. The deadly insects remind me of the wicked wizard from the dark league.

So after that incident, I became mindful when it comes to bugs. But so far in these 2 hours of travel, I have yet to come across any life-threatening danger.

After reaching an open field. I took some time to survey.

Ding! Warning!

Ding! Warning!

Ding! Killing intent is detected.

When the voice echoed in my mind. I felt goosebumps all over my body. I quickly hid behind the tree and looked around.

After some time, I spotted a dark figure slowly following from behind. Seeing that my eyes flickered with cold glint.

It was too soon to confront the enemy. But anyway I’m glad that my assumption didn’t go wrong.

When the person got closer. I decided to use the system.

“System, probe the target’s details,” I said to the system.

Ding! The Host’s command is recognized.

Ding! Level-Up System, 1.1 is ready.

The status window appeared in front of my eyes. Then I immediately began to go through the details.

“Someone has sent a top dog to track me down,” I said to myself.

The wizard is not weak at all. He is close to hitting the limit. He can be called a Peak Level-5 Wizard.

But it’s a pity he didn’t have any killer spells. If he doesn’t have any magic spells, then presumably he would resort to artificial means.

Potion or artifact? Many thoughts come to mind. But I made up my mind to kill him. I don’t know who he passed the information to.

Meanwhile, the tracking wizard wasn’t aware of the situation.

A quick glint flashes in my eyes. This person is not within my range. So I can’t use the gravity field magic.

I guess his magic spells work under a certain range. Otherwise, he would have caught me with his heightened hearing or vision.

Which leaves me no other choice other than to put up an act. I decided to act as if I had fainted. This is an old trick. I don’t know whether it would work. But as long as the wizard enters my range of magic. Then it’s over for him.

Then I went back to the open field and started to act feign on the ground.

Meanwhile, the wizard Philips is casually following the track. He felt bored inside but it can’t be helped. His magic is useless when it comes to combat.

So he is working as a support wizard in his organization. This time the target is an academy wizard. That too one of the three giants.

The dark league headquarters gave him an urgent mission a few days ago. He had expected it to be a dangerous mission at that time. Usually, he tracks down high-level targets and relays the information back to the leading wizard.

But he never expected the target to be an academy student. He started to follow the target from the railway station. Thinking that his previous time is being wasted. He couldn’t help but frown.

From that onwards he has been sharing the information with the leading wizard.

He didn’t know what the leading wizard wanted to do with the information. If he wants to kill the target, he can easily do that. Because of that he unknowingly released a faint killing intent on the target.

But he didn’t know at this moment it would be doom for him because of the small mistake.

Then suddenly he picks up a signal from his magic spells. He can tell that the target has stopped moving and remained motionless in the same spot.

“What is happening?”

“Did he find out?”

“Impossible?”

“I’m a level-5 wizard. No one can find me other than a level-6 wizard and above.” ｂ𝚍ｏｖ𝚕．𝚝

For a moment, he became paranoid. He didn’t know what to do. He is not a combat wizard. So it’s foolish to approach the target without confirming the situation.

Then he decides to send the information to the leading wizard. After sending the message, he waited for the response.

Shortly after he gets a reply.

Sigh!

“So it was nothing serious,” Phill muttered. The leading wizard thinks that the target got bitten by a vicious magic bug. So he was instructed to check the situation personally.

After reading the message. He too believes that this might be the case. Because on thy way here he too saw the traces of magic bugs.

Though they are harmless to him. But they can cause certain damage to lower-level wizards. And from the mission information. He knows that the target got a breakthrough not long ago.

Then Phill slowly walks up to the target to check. When he saw the tender face of the target. Again, he releases the small killing intent from his eyes.

When he tries to touch the target.

“Gravity Field.”

A tremendous gravitational force appeared out of nowhere and crushed him to the ground.

Argh~

Phill let out a scream in agonizing pain. The bones were completely crushed. The pain was so much that his mind went blank for a moment.

Meanwhile, I stopped acting and got up from the ground. I can see the limping body of the tracking wizard on the ground.

Seeing that his arms and legs were crushed. There is no possibility of movement. I canceled the magic spell. He is bleeding with gruesome injuries.

Ignoring that, I observed the person for a moment. I don’t think that he lost consciousness. He is almost one step away from reaching the level-6 wizard.

So his mental power is not ordinary. To check, I decided to probe again.

“System, probe the target’s details,” I said to the system.

Ding! The Host’s command is recognized.

Ding! Level-Up System, 1.1 is ready.

The status panel appeared in front of my eyes. Seeing the details, I can tell that this guy still has consciousness left.

After closing the status panel, I turned toward the wizard.

“I know you can hear me. If you want to live, care to tell me.”

“Why are you tracking me?” I said in a cold tone.

Phill shuddered after hearing the cold tone. He was terrified to the core at this moment. He doesn’t know what happened. But in a blink of an eye, he was crushed completely.

Who is this monster? Every sense of him screaming in pain.

Seeing that he was not Uh answering, I warned him again.

“If you don’t answer me, I’ll use my magic again.”

“But this time you will feel the pain of skull crushing.”

When the words reached Phill’s ears. A cold shiver went down his spine. He suddenly realized if he fails to open his mouth, he will surely die today.
