Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

The Gregor Mansion,

I'm not sure what the next crystal ball will reveal. When I pressed my hands against it.

[Ding! Unknown energy is detected.]

[Ding! The host's level is insufficient to absorb the energy.]

[Ding! The host needs to raise his level.]

In front of my eyes was a large status panel. My eyes widened in disbelief when I saw that. In the same spot, I stood like a statue. This was not something I expected.

My current level does not allow me to absorb the energy. Why? In my heart, a glimmer of doubt appeared. After that, I retracted my thoughts and stored the crystal ball in my system's storage.

I have a nagging feeling in my heart that after a breakthrough. I'll be able to make use of that Crystal ball.

Time passed,

I discovered nothing else after exploring the secret chamber. I sighed inwardly as I realized this. Then I walked back to the laboratory. For a brief moment, my expression has become solemn.

Because I now need to find a way out. After interacting with a system, I realized I needed to find another way back to the mansion.

Then I drew a similar pattern with help of the system on the ground. I vanished from the scene after drawing the specific design on the ground, only to reappear in the vast library.

"Phew," I exhaled, relieved.

If I can return to the mansion, I will be able to return to the outside world. But there's a problem: I haven't yet searched the entire facility.

Time passed,

I gradually began to search the entire mansion. From the kitchen to the butler's room. I didn't miss a single nook or cranny. I was so focused on discovering the secret that I forgot about the rest of the world.

Suddenly,

[Ding! A secret compartment is found.]

[Ding! The host can enter inside after drawing the patterns.]

In front of my eyes, a large panel appeared. I sucked cold breaths for a moment after seeing that. I assumed I'd find a home gateway. But not another undiscovered secret hideout.

Then, after my heart had calmed down. I went through the same motions. When I finished the last stroke,

WHOOSH

I walked into yet another brand-new room. My eyes widened in disbelief the next second. This appeared to be a private space. More than likely, the ancient wizard Gregor's office.

There is only one table and one desk. Behind a slew of books arranged on shelves. But my attention was drawn to the crystal ball on the table.

"Another crystal ball," I exclaimed in surprise.

Then I moved forward to place my hands on the crystal ball.

[Ding! Mansion Control device is detected.]

[Ding! The host can use his mental strength to recognize the device.]

My status panel displayed two lines of instructions. My eyes widened in surprise. "I have command of the mansion," I grumbled to myself.

Then, without further ado, I proceed to use my mental strength. When I infused it with my consciousness. In my mind, a set of instructions appeared.

I felt my mind filling up with information about the mansion.

Time passed, and I needed a few seconds to process the information. When I realized I had become the lord of the mansion, I sucked cold breaths.

I also discovered that this massive mansion contains numerous secret chambers. However, they are inaccessible at my current level. When I realized this, a look of comprehension came over me.

No surprise, I thought this massive mansion was unusually empty. My face broke into a wide smile the next second. However, there is one advantage, as with other small or large items. I can fit this massive mansion into the system's storage space.

That means I can investigate the mansion's mysteries whenever I want. When I think about it, the system's storage function is mind-boggling to me.

Furthermore, I can use this massive mansion as a temporary residence in the future. As a result, I won't have to spend the night in the wilderness like a caveman.

"Ha...Ha...Ha...," I exclaimed as I remembered it. My future will be fascinating.

Then, after my heart had calmed down. I removed my hands from the crystal. Now that I've inherited the Gregor mansion, I can instruct the system to enter or exit this mansion.

My attention was drawn to the rows of books arranged in racks. But then something occurred to me. I have no idea what is going on in the outside world. So I'm not going to waste my time here.

I decided to leave the mansion after gaining some clarity in my thoughts.

"System, I want to exit from the mansion," I said to the system.

[Ding! The host's voice is recognized.]

[Ding! The command is executed.]

WHOOSH

When the command is carried out. I noticed the space distorting. The next thing I knew, I was on the lake's surface.

SPLASH

I'm sensing the water around me. I swam immediately towards the shore. The sudden disturbance disturbed the aquatic monster once more. None of the monsters came to disturb me.

That gave me enough time to get to the other side. A wave of ecstasy washed over me as I rose from the ground. I returned my gaze to the lake's surface.

After a few seconds, the waves calmed down. This entire episode seems surreal to me. I looked at the time, shaking my head.

"Monday," I complained to myself.

My heart was filled with a sense of urgency. The current time is 5 a.m. I need to get back home before school starts. Which appears to be quite impossible to me.

I sighed inwardly after calculating the distance. "Looks like I'm going to skip school today," I grumbled to myself.

When I think back on the mansion, I never imagined how much time had passed inside it. After getting rid of the distracting thoughts, I decided to leave this place.

Because I have a feeling this location will be investigated soon by level-4 wizards from powerful guilds. A glimmer of fear appeared in my eyes as I considered it.

Without further ado, I began fleeing this location at full speed.

Time passed,

I came across a lot of 2nd and 3rd-order monsters along the way. This includes the vexing bird-like monster. I continued my journey toward the hilly peaks after killing them.

I arrived at the premise of hilly areas after a few hours. Fortunately, I didn't come across any hunters along the way. I must admit that my heart is now somewhat relaxed.

Then I took my usual path to reach the dividing edge section.

Time passed,

When I got close to the dividing line after a few hours, I noticed many hunters from a distance. My heart skips a beat when I see them.

Despite this, I am confident in my ability to eliminate them. But I don't want to reveal my location. So far, people have only made assumptions. They are unsure whether the existence of ruins exists in the first place.

So I'd better take advantage of this opportunity to hide somewhere. Then I quickly went to a nearby hideout to wait for other hunters to pass.

There are numerous routes to the vast plain. I'm taking the road less traveled. I'm hoping they don't come.

I soon noticed the appearance of people. There are five groups totaling 25 wizards. When I saw that number, my eyes twinkled.

Then I realized I had almost forgotten about something crucial. I witnessed a fierce battle between two groups before reaching the lake. Perhaps the news of their death reached their ears.

The more I think about it, the more plausible it appears to me. Then I waited patiently for them to leave. I decided to leave when the last person left my sight.

I soon crossed the dividing line and began walking toward the area close to the city wall. Suddenly, the former headmaster's image flashed before my eyes.

My eyes glowed with an icy glint. The former headmaster regarded me as having "soft permission." But he hasn't met the real me.

I snorted coldly, "Harrumph."

I will undoubtedly kill him when the opportunity arises. The problem is that I never tested my gravity against the level-4 wizard. So I'm not sure if I'll be able to kill the level-4 wizard or not.

But I have a sneaking suspicion that I will be confronted with level-4 wizards sooner rather than later. Instead of being afraid, I'm eager to find such a fight.

Then, dispelling the thoughts, I accelerated towards the destination.

Time passed,

By the time I arrived at the massive city wall. It's already past noon.

After entering Venen city, I boarded a nearby air car to return home. My storage bracelet contains a plethora of miscellaneous items. Before I sell them online, I need to sort them out.

After a few hours, the air cab arrived at my house. I paid the fees after getting out of the car. But when I turned back to enter, Mum and Dad were already standing at the front door.
