Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

(From MC's Perspective)

"Cough" "Cough"

Liam Baker stepped forward with a cough. He couldn't even conceal the happy smile on his face. Even some random person can see how happy he was at this time.

He stood before Easton Brown and looked at everyone and finally his gaze landed on me.

I looked back at him with an expressionless face. "What is he up to?" I grumbled.

On the other hand, Liam opened his mouth to say, "Huh, As a class monitor, I have something to say." After saying that, he looked at me and asked, "Vincent, do you accept Easton's challenge?"

"Gasp" another exclamation rang throughout the room.

Usually nobody gives sh't to the class monitor. It's a position of management labor. You have to do constant boot licking of the class teacher and the headmaster to remain in this position.

So nobody values his opinion. But today was something different. Everyone can see some changes in Liam Baker, the guy was unusually enthusiastic.

Suddenly, I felt numerous gazes on me. Looking at Liam's calculation, I sneered inside, "Does he really think I will play according to routine?"

Without minding other gazes, I politely answered, "Class monitor, I'm a newcomer. I'm just getting started to know my magic power."

"Don't you think this challenge is very inappropriate? I don't know? How will the class teacher react to this?" I added further.

My answer was met with an admiring gaze. Which is a little surprising. "Brother, when did you change your mind ?" Lucas inquired.

Lucas was confused. Earlier, Vincent promised that he would destroy Easton during combat class. So why reject the challenge now?

Hearing Lucas' words, I don't know whether to laugh or cry. Why is his brain so slow? I will do what I planned to do. I will defeat Easton for sure. But the trick here is, I'm the one who is going to pose a challenge to him.

I can't wait to see the reaction of these people at that time.

On the other hand, Liam's face was ugly as sh!t, his smile completely disappeared from his face.

"What a coward?" Easton said with a snort. He felt his face was slapped by the cowardly newcomer. He felt a burning sensation on both sides of his face.

Seeing the reaction of the two, some of the students burst into laughter.

"Ha.....Ha....Ha ..."

"Liam wants to entertain us every day. That's why he came up with this new routine."

"Look at Easton's face. I think he can act better in drama."

Liam and Easton looked at each other. If they stand here any more time, they will be met with more ridicule and contempt.

So Liam hurriedly went back to his seat. Easton glared at me before walking away.

Seeing their attempt to lure me crumble down, a small smile blossomed on my face. Soon the commotion quiets down.

...

Just after this, the remaining top mages entered the class one by one in a quick session.

They missed the little episode, but their friend circle didn't fail to update them with details.

When Frank Lambert learned this, he didn't know what's wrong with Easton Brown's brain. "Does he want to get imprisoned?" He thought to himself.

Senior wizard students bullying a newcomer. This thing has never happened before. And he is sure that their righteous class teacher Eric will never let this happen.

But when it comes to newcomer Vincent Carey, he has clear disdain. Previously at the Star battle platform challenge, that guy supported Victoria over him. So he has no sympathy for him.

Suddenly, an idea struck his mind. It's clearly bullying when someone from the top 15 ranks challenges a newcomer. Then what about the 20th ranker to challenge a newcomer.

He turned to face the person sitting right side of him. Mathew Hunk, Level-1 Rifle Holder. Mathew is one of the serious bootlickers among his friend circles. So Frank is clear that he won't disobey his words.

On the other hand, feeling the sudden intense gaze of Frank, Mathew startled.

Mathew has brown hair and eyes. He appeared to be one year older than Vincent. He stands 5.9ft tall. Furthermore, he has fair skin color and he was dressed in a black polo T-shirt and green cargo pants. Unlike Easton Brown, he has a normal, healthy body without bulging muscles.

"Frank?" Mathew questioned in a low tone.

Hearing that, Frank retraced his thoughts and asked, "Mathew, what do you think about that newcomer?"

"Newcomer," Mathew grumbled. Only two newcomers joined the class recently. He quickly realised which one.

"Are you talking about Vincent Carey?" Mathew asked back for clarification.

Frank nodded at him and he peek at Vincent's direction for a moment.

Mathew took a deep breath and answered, "Arrogant."

"He has awakened sub-taboo gravity magic. His future is bright. But that's for the future. Now he is still immature and young. So, he should respect the senior students. Instead, he is acting arrogantly," Mathew commented.

"Oh," Frank widened his eyes in surprise. He never thought Mathew had so much opinion about the newcomer. For him, until the last star battle platform event, he never cared about anything else.

Even today, Frank thought today's combat class was going to be boring as usual. So In order to make it fun, he decided to arrange this little match.

But upon seeing Mathew's reaction, Frank understands that he doesn't have to spicy it up further. Once the duel is fixed, Mathew will take out his anger on Vincent.

Frank's eyes gleamed with interest.

Next, he instructed Mathew, "You are going to fight against Vincent Carey at combat class."

"What!" Mathew slightly taken back. So both of them discussed in low tone. Now his loud exclamation alerted friends beside him.

"What are you two talking about?" Another desk mate inquired.

Hearing that, Frank glanced around everyone. Seeing that he is not in a good mood, everyone averted their gaze. But it's clear for everyone that something interesting is going to happen soon.

Mathew was stunned, he didn't know how to react for a while. He also heard about the little episode that happened right before they entered the class.

Vincent Carey clearly rejected the challenge posed by Easton Brown. So what is he? He doesn't want to get a public nose cut like Easton Brown.

Frank saw that Mathew was spacing out. From his face, it can be seen that he is greatly displeased.

"If you don't want to, then it's fine. I just wanted a sparring partner to test my spear kills. How about that?" Frank asked.

Mathew's expression now turned pale with fright. No way, fighting against 4th ranker. He is in Frank's circle, he can't say no to him. Mathew feels he is riding on a tiger right now.

Finally he made up his mind to fight against Vincent Carey. He immediately answered, "I agree. But what if Vincent rejects the challenge."

A quick glint flashes in Frank's eyes.

He looked at Matthew and started to think. He feels Combat Teacher Freeman will allow anyone below Top 15 to challenge anyone.

And Mathew is ranked 20th place in class. So he has no doubt that Freeman will allow the challenge. But when it comes to Vincent Carey, his lips are swept into an arc.

He recalled the last duel of Vincent Carey, it was a simple win. Frank assumed that Vincent's combat power is somewhere between top 20 to top 25.

It was his assumption, but If Vincent rejects Mathew's challenge, then his combat power is even lower than that.

Frank made up his mind that if such a case happens, he will ask someone else to challenge Vincent Carey.

Then he looked at Mathew and said, "You don't have to worry about that. Just challenge him for the ranking duel."

Mathew nodded obediently. Fighting against Vincent is a thousand times better than confronting Frank. Seeing that Frank returned back to usual self, he breathed in relief.

Mathew doesn't know what made Frank get interested in this newcomer suddenly. Then he realised something about the Star battle platform. "The newcomer is going to suffer heavily before graduating from the school." He thought to himself.

Vincent doesn't know that another malicious plan hatched against him.

Time passes,

The classes went as usual, boring without drama. So everyone is looking forward to the combat class after lunch. Soon, the time inches closer. There is one more class before the combat class.

It's a history class about ancient civilization. Students were bored, they couldn't wait for the clock to tick faster.

BUZZ

Finally, when the bell rang, everyone sighed in relief. Just after the history teacher left the class, students started to leave for the combat class one by one.

Seeing that, Easton Brown walked up to Liam Baker. Both of their plans had failed so far. Easton was ashamed, he didn't know where to hide his head.

Liam saw Easton coming in his direction, he felt disgusted inside. Easton was dumber than he thought. If he had solved Vincent outside of the school campus, then everything would have ended perfectly according to his plan.
