Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

From MC’s perspective:

“Kid, you came at a bad time. The patrol guards are tightening the rope. They are looking for someone.”

“So for strangers or visitors from other cities, they are going to face trouble. The patrol guards would collect their details,” the old man said in a normal tone.

On the other hand, my eyes flickered. I made the right decision by not directly flying into the city. The image of the giant airship is vivid in my mind.

If my identity is exposed, then it would be difficult to leave the border.

“Kid, what are you thinking?” The old man asked. The old man found the kid-pleasing to the eye. So he doesn’t mind clearing his doubts.

“Hmmm”

“Mister, can you tell me if any vehicles are going to the border?” I asked.

The old man looked at me seriously. Before I could explain.

“Are you going to search for them in the border town?” the old man asked.

Hearing that I fiercely nodded my head. The old man was simply naive. There is no need to coerce him.

“I don’t know what is happening?”

“The situation at the border doesn’t seem to be good either. If you want to go, you can find some transport company in the city,” The old man said.

Hearing that I thanked him before giving him the low-grade stone.

The old man was surprised but the next second his expression showed joy. He then places the low-grade stone in the battery area.

Wiz!

Immediately the battery began to charge. The old man now enters the city without any trouble.

“Kid, you helped me greatly. Let me drop you at the transport company. Get in,” The old man said.

“Thank you, mister,” After saying that I hopped inside.

Sitting down in the back seat, I saw an old man take the driver’s seat before turning toward me.

“Don’t worry, kid”

“The patrol guards won’t bother you,” the old man said.

“Why?” I blurted out of surprise.

The old man grinned before saying, “They are afraid of my job.” Then he started the vehicle and the four-wheeler burst out at a great speed.

Back in the seat, I took the old man’s words as a joke. If there is any trouble, I can hide inside the Gregor Mansion.

Swish~

The four-wheeler is moving at a great speed. It’s been some time since I traveled in a land vehicle.

Soon we reached the massive gate of the city. Then I saw the name of the city lit up with lights.

“Comet City,” I said in my head. Why does every town and city name have something to do with outer space?

I frowned. Then I shifted my focus back to the entrance. The gate opened but the patrol guards checked the land vehicle one by one.

Still, there were a couple of vehicles in front of us. It would take several minutes before our time.

Commotion~ 𝙚𝙙𝙣𝒐𝙫𝙚𝙡.𝙤𝙧𝒈

When I was observing, people exclaimed in surprise. Then I saw everyone towards the sky. When I raised my head as well.

I saw a giant white airship entering the airspace of Comet City. There are a lot of air vehicles leading the way.

Seeing that my expression turned solemn. The white airship is the same as the previous one.

“Harumph, these guys are back to terrorize people,” the old man said with a snort.

“They won’t let anyone live peacefully,” The old man added.

I turned toward the old man and asked, “Why are you saying that?”

“Kid?”

“Where were you living all this time?”

“Don’t you know these guys will kill? Even if there is the slightest disagreement,” The old man said in a solemn tone.

“Many of my garage friends were killed by them,” the old man added.

Hearing that I remained silent. But my mind was not calm. There is also a Royal Academy back in my country. But those guys weren’t this overbearing.

A few minutes later,

It was our turn. The patrol guards recognized the old man and his vehicle. So they let the vehicle pass without much checking.

When we passed the checkpoint, The old man turned towards me and laughed.

“Ha…Ha…Ha…”

“How was it?”

“Those guards won’t bother to check me. Otherwise, I won’t repair their vehicles in my garage,” The old man said.

His words enlightened me. Then he drove the vehicle to a transport company.

Comet City is big. Many companies have large land of their own. So normal residents can’t enter their premises without permission.

But the old man surprised me. He seems to have contacts with some influential people. In the name of servicing the vehicle, he drove the vehicle into the company premises.

“McCarthy Russ,” The old man said in a solemn tone.

“That person is a famous wizard and part of the government. And he also runs a private business like this transport company.”

“Do you remember the white big airship?”

“I guess he was on that ship,” The old man continued to say. But his words caused a huge turmoil in my heart.

I thought about finding some random company. But this old man led me towards the tiger’s den.

The old man noticed the young man’s change in expression. He thought that the young man was scared.

He let out a chuckle before saying, “Don’t worry, I have some friends here. They are looking for low-level wizards to handle some work.”

“I guess the work is related to transporting some goods to the border town. You can do some work while traveling to the border town,” The old man explained.

Hearing that I keep nodding my head at him. It’s a dangerous environment. Since I’m here, I can collect some information. I took this challenge positively.

Soon the vehicle reaches the destination. I saw an office building. Then I stepped out of the vehicle followed by the old man.

“Kid, let me take you there to meet some people,” After saying that the old man started leading me towards some back office building.
