Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

From MC's Perspective:

I somehow managed to leave the Merchant Building premises. Finally, I can feel the breath of home. I feel more secure here than in a foreign country.

Despite the fact that I have been targeted for assassination multiple times here. I do not feel uneasy here. After getting some clarity, I decided to contact someone I knew.

But first, I have to find a place to eat. I swept my gaze across. Both sides of the street are lined with good shops.

Before entering the shop, I decided to do some preparation. I took the mask out of the system space and put it on.

I wore the standard gray mage robe. It is a typical mage robe worn by Adventurer groups. I hope this does not draw attention.

I then chose a shop and walked towards it. It is a mid-sized restaurant. I can smell the aroma of food coming from inside.

I opened the door and walked inside.

Then I swept my gaze around before settling on the empty seats near the window. I proceeded to sit down.

Shortly afterward,

The server approached the table. I placed an order for a boar monster steak and fruit juice. The boar monster steak was my personal favorite. I recall eating one back in my hometown.

After placing the order, I turned on my contact server.

Then I start checking the unread messages. My inbox contained more than 200 unread messages. The majority of them come from Senior Carolina.

I then proceeded to check other messages.

On the other hand, a group of high-level wizards entered the restaurant at this time. They have the Weapon Palace Academy emblem on their chests.

Their appearance immediately attracted attention. The customers quickly lowered their heads. They are not going to offend a bunch of arrogant wizards.

Even the shop owner was respectful of them. The group comprised six wizards. They found two empty tables to sit at.

Silence!

The place has become quieter. The customers are speaking in low voices.

On the other hand, an amusing smile appeared on the face beneath the mask. I thought I could return to the academy without drama.

Now, I have met wizards from another academy.

I lower my head, pretending to read the menu card. At the same time, I perked up my ears to hear their conversations.

["What a sh*t day?"]

[When will we be able to go on a mission]

[To accomplish this, we must complete our current mission.]

[Harumph! Who can find that V.....]

[Karen, be careful with your mouth.]

[We came here to eat. Do not reveal information through pointless talking.]

The wizards fell silent after their leader reprimanded them. They quickly realized their mistake, and someone abruptly changed the subject of their conversation.

In contrast, my eyes twinkled. Their conversation left me confused. But it is a shame someone was clever among them.

He did not allow those guys to speak mindlessly.

At this point, the server arrived with the order. He arranged the food on the plate neatly. Then I thanked him and began digging in.

After a few minutes,

The Weapon Palace Wizards have begun to enjoy their food as well. Someone could not help but notice a strange adventurer nearby.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

He thought it was a better topic to discuss.

"Hey, look over there. Someone is wearing a mask during the day," he said.

His words sparked interest. Everyone then turned to look at the adventurer over there. They noticed that the person was concentrating on eating the food.

"Ha...Ha...Ha..., what is wrong with adventurers these days?"

"They are dressed up as some sort of detective or spy."

"I see him. I thought of something. It is getting boring around here. Why don't we spice things up?

The wizards communicated with one another. Hearing this, the leader of their respective groups raised his head. After casting a glance at the Adventurer, he continues his meal.

He does not mind their little tricks as long as they do not reveal the mission's details.

The wizards communicated with one another before devising a strategy.

"Okay, I bet 500 medium-grade mana stones."

"If one of you managed to remove his mask, you can have this pouch." After saying this, the blue-haired high-level wizard placed a pouch on the table.

His voice was not low. It was heard by people at nearby tables.

Their leader smiled slightly as he continued to eat the food. He considered it a foolish bet. Nobody can mess with the three Academies in the Capital.

They belong to one as well. He believes the adventurer will remove his mask right away.

Gasp!

The customers exclaimed in low tones. Everyone was keeping their own business so as not to offend the academy wizards. However, the poor adventurer is having a bad day. Trouble is approaching him.

At this point, everyone's gaze was drawn to the adventurer. This includes both the owner and the servers. However, the adventurer was unconcerned and continued to eat his own food.

On the other hand, I do not know whether to laugh or cry. I am wearing a mask. People do not recognize me because of the mask.

However, everyone knows me because I won the Wizard Heart Competition.

I never imagined that someone would bet on removing my mask.

I shook my head and continued eating.

One of the high-level wizards immediately stood up in response to the bet. He wanted 500 mid-grade mana stones for free. He was large and heavy-built.

He makes a noise with each step he takes. Customers appear to be unaware of the wizards' true strength. But they are still afraid of them.

"Morrison will easily acquire the 500 mid-grade mana stones. You wasted the bet for nothing," someone told the blue-haired wizard.

The blue-haired wizard smiles in response. He did it for fun.

On the other hand, I have noticed someone approaching me. I ignored him and ate the final piece of meat.

"Hey, take off your mask," the bulky man said loudly.
