Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

Seeing the bottom rankers were surrounding me, I sneered. I am not clueless about their strategy. I can dispose of them at any time, but while doing that I need to keep an eye on Liam. Simultaneously my mind is also working to come up with some sort of back-up plan, because Liam's status is no joke.

Suddenly, one of the bottom rankers took action, his magic power is Mist illusion. Mist illusion type is one of the strongest illusion types among the illusion family. It forms cloudy mists surrounding the enemy to disrupt his senses and make him fall under illusion. Powerful Illusion Mages can cast a wide area illusion spell, which can decide the life and death situation of enemies.

When I sensed someone moving, I recognized that person. A while ago, I probed everyone's details along the way, especially taking note of different types of magic. And this person happens to be a rare illusion magic user. At that time I thought of a plan on how to handle him, but after seeing his stats which are under 10. I stopped coming up with a strategy, because he doesn't pose a threat to me. As long as I disrupt his spell before casting then everything would be fine.

Right now, seeing him casting spells. I wait for the right opportunity to strike.

Next moment,  I saw he came to the last part of the spell.  "Fortunately, Gravity doesn't require me to chant magic words." I mumbled.  For some magic types it is compulsory to do that and for the rest of us it doesn't require to do so. So I made a move.

"Gravity Push"

I released invisible force from my hands, it really feels gentle. But,

"Pfff" "Pfff""Pfff"

An enormous pressure, like a tidal wave, came at them. Caught off guard, all of them flew backwards and crashed on the ground.  Everyone coughed blood due to the sudden impact. As everyone within the range of 500 meters, no one escaped from the spell except Liam who happens to be a few distance away from my spell's range.

Instead of enveloping them the gravitational force simply threw them out. As a result, the bottom rankers escaped from a life and death situation. Unfortunately, Liam doesn't seem to care.

After seeing everyone thrown away by Vincent's spell, Liam became mad.

"Waste" "All of you are simply waste" Liam shouted fanatically while pointing his fingers at the bottom rankers. As everyone tries to get up to seek revenge they hear Liam's words.

Everyone was displeased hearing him shouting, instead of getting angry at Liam. They turned towards Vincent Carey. In anger one of them stood up and made a move.

"Torrential rain"

It's rare elemental type magic, in early stages it plays a supporting role rather than main individual role. In a supporting role, the mages can combine their magic with others. Like poison magic, the poison magic with torrential rain can cause deadly effects. But only after reaching higher level the mage can use its full potential of his magic.

When the spell was cast, it formed a small cloud above Vincent and immediately followed by heavy rain. While he was doing that his actions were followed like chain reaction, everyone else acted.

I know his magic is harmless, but it's still annoying to get wet at this time. Suddenly I notice what everyone is up to. Like earlier, everyone swarmed towards me. Since they didn't learn from the last lesson, this time I decided to use my main spell.

"Gravity Field"

Keeping those bed ridden in mind, I released a fraction of gravitational force.

A gigantic gravitational pressure envelops everyone within the range of 500 meters. Being subjected to enormous pressure. One by one bottom rankers begin to shake and tremble in fear.

In the end they couldn't withstand and were directly planted on the ground. From the beginning to end, it took only a few seconds. Right now, the bottom rankers ended up unconscious. Their injuries were not severe due to Vincent's controlled release of his magic.

Liam, who has been observing the show, feels disappointed. None of their attacks landed on Vincent Carey. It completely overturned his beliefs. The strength shown by Vincent is enough to injure his friends.

But instead he convinced everyone that Vincent made a sneak attack on his friends. Perhaps, the idea of someone stronger than his friends studying in Class A2 is unbelievable. Especially his friends who were in the Top 20 ranks.

With that preconceived notion, He subconsciously believed that his assumption is the truth. But right now reality gives him a huge slap on his face. "So, Whatever Mr. Wallace's bluffing earlier turned out to be true." Liam mumbled under his breath.

I should have waited for three of them to wake up. Now everything is in a mess, I became a testing puppet for Top ten rankers.

But he firmly believes that Vincent can't make any wind against him. So, he attacked with his powerful spell. For weapon mages, they have privileges that others don't have. It's the collection of weapon spells, formally known as weapon techniques.

"Great Vertical Slash"

A rudimentary form of bronze battle axe materialized in his hands. The Battle Axe's shape is not clearly formed except the cutting edge. A bronze color aura can be seen whirling around the battle axe. His magic weapon's name is derived from this bronze aura. When the axe powered up completely, by grabbing the handle tightly Liam swung it with full force.

A powerful energy is slashed at Vincent. The energy shot is nothing but external outburst of his mana power. But this time there is some slight difference. The outburst of his mana contains a tinge of bronze power in it. Which makes some kind of enhancement to his weapon.

While I'm analyzing, the energy slash reached me in an instant. I already expected that he would do something like this while I'm busy. So I always had one eye on him because of it, I evaded the attack on time. The energy slash hits the empty space and finally lands on the ground.

"Boom"

The energy slash destroyed the tiles, by leaving a long vertical scar on the ground. I can see the impact of the bronze power in it. After seeing the impact of his spell, I feel his stats were justified.

"Harrumph" I snorted back and moved quite a distance away from him. I thought of a good plan. If it's successful then I can avoid this fight for today.

Seeing his attack got missed, Liam got even more frustrated.

At this time, I said, "Wait" a new idea pops up in my mind. I hope the fish catches the bait. It would be futile to fight against him. I wonder what would happen if he revealed my current strength to his classmates. Especially the Top 10 Mages.

This guy's stats are not worse but still he ranks at 10th. So I realized the horror of the Top 10. It's best to increase my talent as soon as possible. With that when the time comes, I'll act.

Hearing Vincent's answer, Liam was taken back. He hadn't expected a question in the middle of the fight. Liam sneered, "Don't think that you can back off by talking." His suspicion is getting higher, if Vincent really had strength against the sky. He would have executed his spell first. So he feels there is no need to talk.

Hmmm, this guy has brains. But I want to see his response after hearing my next words.

Without giving him anymore time to launch next spell. I stated in a loud voice, "Liam, Your classmates are dying right now. Isn't it responsibility of the Class Leader to lead his class? Protect them and set up an example by being a role model. On contrary you have brought them here to die. I wonder, what do you think of the Headmaster? I bet you didn't even put the Headmaster in your eyes." I said in one breath with righteous filled tone.

Alternatively,

When the bottom rankers conjured various spells to attack Vincent. Both Palmer and Timothy maintained a pin drop silence watching this confrontation. Both of them wiping sweat beads on their foreheads. They thought this meeting would end up in one sided humiliation.

But upon seeing Vincent's gravity power, Palmer's expression changed drastically. He was like a patient suffering from blood loss, his complexion got worse. Zack is level 1 mage with one week of practice, but his combat power is comparable to some senior students.

Timothy is in no way better, He covered his mouth with both of his hands. He doesn't want to make any sound to expose himself. The situation won't end well, if you antagonize either of the parties.

Palmer was wondering whether it's good to report to security guard mages or not. Once they reached the spot. They will put an end to this matter. After making up his mind, he decided to call the security guards.

But at this time he heard Vincent's statements.
