From MC's perspective:

When I appeared outside. There was no one here. Before the level-8 wizard finds out. I have to escape from this place.

Soon, I found the crossing area. Where the vehicles from this side of the land are entering my country. Apart from the modern vehicles, there are also monster carriages waiting in the queue.

There are patrol guards on both sides of the border doing inspections. People are busy moving out of this place. But so far I haven't found any high-level wizards.

Then I calmed down before picking up a vehicle. I started walking towards the monster carriage. 

Seeing me coming, the person who was responsible for the carriage turned towards me. But he quickly changed his expression after looking at me from up and down.

Then I realized he recognized the blue uniform of mine.

"Sir?"

"Do you need any help?" He asked me.

Hearing that I'm stunned. The response was better than I thought. The person appeared to be a middle-aged man. 

He doesn't seem to be a worker.

"Ahem," 

"My Lord asked me to search every vehicle," I replied.

The middle-aged man was surprised before nodding his head in approval. Because the news has reached him that Lord McCarthy has come to the border town.

After looking at the person's dress, he verified it.

Seeing that the person allowed me. I began to search for the carriage. But I'm looking for a suitable carriage to travel.

When I looked inside. I saw the carriage was filled with goods. There is no space to sit down. 

After checking it, I walked forward to check the other vehicle. The middle-aged man sighed in relief. 

On the other hand, the patrol guards also noticed the dress. But they simply ignored my actions. 

While I'm checking, I can't help but feel someone is looking at me. But I didn't turn around to alert the person.

If my guess is right, the scar-faced wizard must be monitoring me.

Meanwhile,

McCarthy Russ was staying in the big office building. Though the facilities here are lacking compared to Comet City. He didn't mind it.

Right now, he wants to gain some clues.

"Order, everyone to disperse and look for the clue. And in the meantime, no one should disturb me," He said to the female assistant.

The female assistant nodded her head before leaving the room.

"Kevin, I won't let you succeed so easily," McCarthy muttered to himself. 

Time flies,

The scar-faced wizard is also searching for a clue. But so far the border town has had no such visitors. Even the local stores and shops haven't seen anyone suspicious entering the city.

Similarly, the other guards are searching in different places as well. The territory of the border town is not big. 

The size of the border town is one-third of Comet City. So they can complete the search in a short time. 

Time flies,

When it was dark. The guards returned to the office building except for the scar-faced wizard. Right now, the scar-faced wizard is at the crossing area.

"Are you sure there was no one here?" He asked.

I couldn't help but sneer inside standing opposite to him. I thought about leaving after finding a suitable caravan.

But I didn't expect the scar-faced wizard to be here all along. My earlier guess was right. But I still kept my emotions hidden and nodded my head at his words.

"Waste"

"You should forget about eating and sleeping. I want you to stand guard here along with others," the scar-faced wizard said.

Hearing that my eyes turned cold. I can see there are onlookers gathered here. Some are looking at the scarred wizard with awe.

While others are gloating and mocking. After reprimanding me, the scar-faced wizard left. I stood in the same spot.

If any fight breaks out, it will attract the attention of the level-8 wizard. Shortly after, the onlookers dispersed. 

When the crowd was gone. I turned toward a specific monster carriage. The monster carriage was laid with golden patterns. There are also precious gems laid in it. 

The locals can easily recognize the gems. Because these gems can be only found in the Meteor Country. 

What's more interesting is that the custom-made carriage was ordered by the family under the Royal Force Academy.

Thanks to their butler who spilled everything when I struck up a conversation with him. Looking at the carriage, a faint smile appeared on my face.

Now, I can choose to hide inside the Gregor Mansion after stepping into the carriage. As the carriage is going to cross the border soon.

When I walked closer the butler saw me again. His face was full of smiles. 

"Oh, young man. Are you alright?" 

"I saw a respectable wizard teaching you something," The butler said.

"Teaching me something," I rolled my eyes at him.

"Alright, I'm here to say goodbye to you," I replied.

Hearing that the butler realized it was time for parting. So he wished me good as well. Then I left the spot.

Time flies,

When the butler was not paying attention. I entered the carriage and appeared in the Gregor Mansion after closing the door.

"Success," I mumbled under my breath.

At the same time, the scar-faced wizard didn't leave; rather, he watched the whole scene.

"Trash"

"Dare to enter a custom-made carriage," The scar-faced wizard sneered.

The custom-made carriage was expensive. It can be only afforded by the truly rich. He doesn't know why. He is attracted to labor trash's actions. 

Now seeing him entering the custom-made carriage. He can tell the reputation of the McCarthy Company would be questioned.

Then he appeared before the carriage instantly. The butler who was standing outside started all of a sudden.

He recognized the scar-faced wizard. He was the same wizard who scolded the talkative young man before.

What is he doing here? The butler was scared sh!t. 

Before he could open his mouth. The scar-faced wizard opened the carriage to look inside. 

"Ah?" A loud exclamation escaped from his mouth.

"Where is he?" He turned around and asked the butler.
