Many wizard groups started looking for a wanted person. They began to check every caravan and carriage which crosses the main areas. Since the target's destination was Tolu Country.

Tony Burnett has arranged many of his people at the country's border. He knows in one way or another, Vincent must cross the border to reach the Tolu Country.

...

From MC's Perspective:

I'm looking at the status panel. My gaze was fixed on the Sacred Gravity Physique. As I guessed before, my physique leveled up further. 

But apart from feeling closer to the gravity mana. I don't know what else the benefits are there. I also have a passive gravity ability. These are all associated with the physique.

When I go back to the academy, I should read books on wizard anatomy. I'm sure I will be able to gain a new understanding. 

Then I looked around. I already consumed the last few pieces of mana stones. Hereafter, I will have to find some other resources. 

I sighed inwardly. Because of the mana stone, my progress has been smooth without any delay. 

Hereafter, it will be difficult to meditate in this barren land. 

Time passed,

After getting ready, I appeared back in my carriage. Now the carriages are going through a normal pass.

Looking at these sand paths, I believe we will reach another nearby town. 

Days passed in a blink of an eye. For every new town, we had met with inspection. I choose to hide in the Gregor Mansion every time. 

With that ability, I was able to fool the hostile wizards. For some reason, the people didn't seem to want the leakage of the information. 

So they had been careful with their search. 

26 days later,

The carriages enter the Rust City. Rust City is a border city. To enter the Tolu Country legally, one must go through the Rust City. 

Though the city size is small. It's a busy city and the streets are bustling with people.

Many people stay here because of businesses. 

I heard high-level wizards are stationed here for border protection. After getting permission from the office, we can officially enter the Tolu Country.

A few minutes later,

The carriages came to a halt in front of an office. The escort team captain and the old man entered the office to get permission. 

Before coming here, I already told them to hide my information. The old man quickly understood. We had discussed it earlier. 

But the problem is with the escort team leader. He seems to be wary of me. But the real power lies in the hands of the old man. 

Since he was the business owner. The escort team Captain has to follow his wishes.

Meanwhile,

A short woman is sitting behind her desk. She is working on a screen, inspecting some reports. 

Her name is Melina Thompkins. 40 years old. Level-4 wizard. But unlike her outward appearance, she is not innocent at all.

Some time ago, she had received news from her acquaintance. That they are looking for a wizard. It's not government notice. 

But someone in her connections asked for help. Normally, she wouldn't do anything without knowing the ins and out. 

Yet she agreed later on. Because of the money promised to her. She never expected someone to offer so much money for sharing one piece of information. 

Her magic power was at level-4. For so long she has been trying to collect resources. But with her salary, it was hard to buy the expensive resources.

Suddenly, she receives a notification that someone wants to meet her. 

Her job was to inspect people who were coming in and leaving Rust City.

So she gave permission immediately. 

Creak~

The door opened.

A middle-aged man and an old man in his sixties entered the room. 

Seeing them, she asked them to take a seat.

"Hi, I'm Melina Thompkins. What can I do for you?" Melina asked in a calm tone.

But she was not calm. Because the information she had received earlier matches the appearance of the old man. 

"Miss, we want to enter the Tolu Country to transport our goods," The old man said in a calm tone.

But the old man's palm is sweating profusely. He found the gaze of the women was not right. 

The escort team Captain is keeping quiet. But Melina's next question made his heart pop out of his mouth.

"Is there anyone else with you?" She asked.

At the same time, she caught the minute expression of these two. Both of them are low-level wizards compared to her.

"Something is not right?" She muttered in her heart. She felt these two were panicking because of her question.

"Alright, give the document to me," She said.

Hearing that the old man handed over the document to her. The document has the list of the goods and names of persons escorting it.

Melina stood up from her seat. She has to verify in person whether the things stated in the document are true or not. 

Seeing her walking out, the old man and the Captain followed her as well. 

Three of them came outside. Melina saw five carriages lining up in a queue. Her gaze passes from the 1st carriage to the last carriage slowly.

Meanwhile,

Inside the 3rd carriage, I saw the appearance of three people outside all of a sudden. Seeing that I hurriedly hid inside the Gregor Mansion.

I know another person came for an inspection. But this time it's different. Instead of bandits, groups, and rogue wizards. Someone from the government is going to check the carriages.

I then entered the control room to watch the outside scene.

My view was blocked because of the closed window. But I can hear the conversation happening outside.

On the one hand, I'm hiding here. On the other hand, Melina starts checking from the 1st carriage. 

She has a document in her hands. One by one she began to go through. From guards to goods. She is checking everything. 

10 minutes later,

Melina turned toward the old man and walked up to him. 

"What happened to your servants?"

"Their names were mentioned in the document. But they are not in the carriage," Melina asked with questioning eyes.

Small sweat beads dripped from the old man's forehead. 

The escort team Captain's expression was not good either. 

Seeing that Melina was sure that something was going on. Perhaps, this might be the group that her acquaintance is looking for.

But before doing that she wants to make sure. 

The old man recalled Vincent's words. They had rehearsed this situation.

"Miss, my servants fell ill halfway down the trip. So I had ordered them to go back to the City," The old man replied.

But the escort team Captain was not calm. He now doubts the identity of the person staying in the carriage. 

At the same time, he was confused by her words. He knows that Vincent is in the 3rd Carriage. But she says that no one is inside.

What is going on? Has he escaped? He feels that person escaped from here. He is not a fool. From the beginning of the trip, they had met with numerous bandit groups and several other unknown wizards looking for someone.

That person might be the same one staying in the carriage. He then looked at the boss who was nervous as well. 

Meanwhile,

Watching everything from the control room, my eyes grew cold. I never expected that old man to carry an official document in his hands. 

Fortunately, she is a government employee. If this sheet fell into the hands of others, then everyone would be exposed.

Now, I just hope that the old man lies to convince her.

Outside,

Melina furrowed her eyebrows. She would have believed it if it were a normal day. But looking at the expression of these two. She wasn't convinced.

Since no one was found in the carriage. She can't argue either. 

Then suddenly a good idea comes to her mind.

She then looked at these two and said, "Alright, you guys can leave tomorrow."

"Tomorrow?" The old man uttered in surprise. The journey can't be delayed.

"Why?"He asked back. 

Melina smiled and said, "It would take some time to get a signature from the higher-level wizard."

Hearing that old man shut his mouth. He knows who she is referring to. She is in administration but above her, there is a high-level wizard who guards the border.

Melina then walked back to her office without turning back.

The captain and the old man walked back to the carriage.

After a few minutes, the carriage starts to move towards the inn. 

Meanwhile,

I sighed in relief. Yet, I have this feeling in my heart that it's not over. 

Melina sat back in her seat. She immediately contacted her acquaintance and revealed the news. She is not 100% true. But if it turns out to be true, she can then earn riches.

10 minutes later,

A 50-year-old man is lurking in this city. He is one of the elders of the Burnett Clan. His name is Cortezz Burnett. 

He is a level-6 bloodline wizard with a wolf bloodline. He was dispatched here under the order of the Young Master of their Clan. 

He has been patiently waiting here to catch the target.
