Border

The blue-eyed Magic Lords and others searched the place, but they didn’t find anyone hiding there. The blue-eyed wizard couldn’t believe his own eyes.

Those who had tried to enter the Nyx Land had never succeeded. Almost all of them had died.

Only a small number of people were able to become followers of the Young Master Raymond.

At this time, his friend’s phone rang. He answered the call. The next second, his friend’s expression changed drastically.

He heard something important, something more important than the current situation. When the call ended, he turned towards his friend.

"I got important news," he said.

"What is it?" the blue-eyed wizard uttered with impatience.

"Young Master Raymond has decided to return. He will reach the border soon," he replied.

Hearing that, everyone’s expressions changed drastically, including the wizards behind them.

Inside the Gregor Mansion, my expression tightened. Now I had found out who the backer behind them was. It was none other than the Raymond Family.

No wonder they have criminal gangs operating here. No one would come here and disturb the peace of the Young Master.

Their Young Master can practice in the Nyx Land.

A hint of understanding dawned on me, but I had heard an interesting conversation as well. I had thought I would have to enter that treacherous place.

But if the person himself is coming back, then I should capture him. My eyes flashed with a glint. I decided to wait. This plan seemed likely to work.

Outside

The blue-eyed wizard recovered from his thoughts.

He said, "Everyone should get ready to welcome the Young Master."

Hearing that, the others cheered. They were excited. The tournament was getting closer; it was the right time for their Young Master to come back.

Then everyone started waiting there patiently. Both Magic Lords forgot about the escaped person. Even if someone appeared, they wouldn’t know if it was the same person.

Inside the Gregor Mansion

I began to get ready. I wore a mask and wizard robes along with a magic cloak on top.

It was unnecessary, but they would think it was the magic cloak that blocked their senses in case someone tried to probe me.

Post noon,

A black, medium-sized air carrier appeared in the sky. There were many wizards on the deck. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Seeing that black aircraft carrier, the faces of both Magic Lords changed drastically. They flew over to the carrier.

It was the black carrier of Young Master Raymond.

In a flash, they both landed on the deck, followed by the wizards of the Sand Tower. They landed on the deck as well. The black carrier continued to move slowly through the air.

Swoosh!

When the black carrier crossed the border, I appeared outside and immediately went under the huge carrier so that no one would see me. And it worked.

A hint of relief flashed in my eyes, but it was not a permanent solution. The huge carrier would soon reach its next stop: the sand base.

If there were wizards at the sand base, they would see me. I used the system probe function to find an entrance.

[Ding! Emergency entry/exit found.]

The system voice sounded in my mind. Hearing that, a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. I followed the directions and found a small gate.

I used the system probe function to check whether anyone was standing on the other side.

The system results came back negative. The next second, I pressed my hand against the small door.

I didn’t have to use a magic spell. I can control a certain amount of magic power externally because my physique is related to gravity.

Boom!

I used my magic power. The gravity magic took effect. The next moment, the gate caved in and broke completely.

The broken gate fell from the top, heading toward the ground.

The next second, I rushed inside. Upon entering, I immediately retreated into the Gregor Mansion.

"Sigh!"

A sigh escaped my mouth. That was close. But I was sure someone would detect the broken door. I went to the control room to check.

As I expected, someone did come to check. I could see it in the mirror.

A wizard from the operating team saw the door was gone. It was now open. There was no sign of an attack or anything else.

If anyone were here, the Magic Lords would have detected them already, he thought. He then thought of Young Master Raymond. His eyes filled with respect.

Nothing can escape the Young Master’s eyes, so he didn’t even consider an intruder. Instead, he thought it was due to poor maintenance.

He then ordered someone to use metal magic to block the gate. He left the place without making the incident a big deal; he simply reported it to his superiors as a broken door.

It didn’t take long for someone with metal magic to arrive. That person used magic to create another gate.

Not long after he left, I appeared outside. I checked using the system to ensure no one was there. Then I started exploring the place. It was a huge risk to do this, but I didn’t have any other choice.

Soon, I found a male staff member of a similar height to mine wearing the uniform of the Raymond Family.

I walked up to him and touched his shoulder. Before the man could turn around, I brought him into the system space.

The man was a Supreme Wizard, not a weakling. He was bewildered after seeing the blue grid around him, but before he could do anything, I knocked him out.

Thud!

The wizard fell down. I removed his uniform and left him in his undergarments. I changed into the new clothes and reappeared inside the ship.

The staff member was imprisoned inside. He couldn’t do anything. I wasn’t wearing the mask now, as it would attract too much attention.

Next, I used the system to find the most heavily guarded place. The system pointed toward the deck above.

I took a deep breath. I had decided to take the risk. Without taking risks, you cannot approach such a person.

Then I started walking towards the deck. On the way, I came across other staff. They minded their own business and didn’t suspect me at all.
