Chapter 39 The Head Master's First Move
Hearing that Mr. Collins understands the situation in order to not to drag it any longer. He answered, " Mr. Davis, I\'ll plan something to take his life"
"How?" Mr. Davis asked.
" I\'ll arrange some assassins to do that." Mr. Collins said without any hesitation. It\'s a usual routine to remove people whom you don\'t like. He plans to do it without any evidence.
"Harumph," Mr. Davis snorted after hearing that.
He immediately said, "You know what will happen if you leave any evidence while doing that."
"Mr. Davis, I don\'t dare" The HeadMaster Collins gulped his saliva in fear. He knew if he gets caught it\'s better to die in the hands of the enemy. Otherwise these people will torture him alive.
Mr. Davis ended the call hearing that. He already warned him. In order to inflict damage to Yellow River Academy. He believes there is no better way other than eliminating their future generations.
Secondly, he knows the headmaster is quite scared of his life. After hearing his words, he will definitely act seriously on this matter. So he didn\'t think he would fail after his instruction. So he ended the call directly.
Seeing the call disconnected, Mr. Collins breathed in relief. He even forgot that his back is drenched in sweat. Such an intense conversation. He doesn\'t remember the last time. He had such a conversation with anyone.
He is just a lower member in the dark league. He rarely attracts any attention to himself. Even he only had a few encounters with Mr. Davis.
He let out a deep sigh thinking that. Now because of Vincent Carey he is once again in the spotlight. He made up his mind to deal with him as soon as possible. He knows several local gangster groups in this area. He can even fake it as a local feud. If this plan fails he will think about the next plan.
On a whim, he said to Mr. Davis that he would arrange some assassins. But it will hole out his wallet. So he thinks local gangs were enough to kill Vincent. Next moment, he browses the contacts of the gang leaders. For a moment, he ponders. Which gangs will be suitable for this task.
He doesn\'t want this killing to happen in the school area. "Hmm" while pondering a good idea came to his mind. There is a small gang operating in this area. The entire gang is made up of Rogue Mages. Which is causing quite a headache to police mages. None of the members have been caught so far.
"Poison Dagger" Mr. Collins mumbled under his breath.
Shaking his head, he hasn\'t met their leader in person. What to do? Then he plans to arrange someone to contact them and make a deal with them later.
After confirming his mind, he begins to focus on his office work.

(From MC Perspective)
After following Palmer a while, I came to know about his after school routine. Before going home this guy continues to visit several shops. I haven\'t got any chance to confront him. I rubbed my temple in frustration. But the next second I heard the sound of an air car landing near Palmer.
Seeing such a high end car, for a moment. I looked at it in surprise. The air car landed in front of Palmer. A butler stepped out and greeted Palmer in a polite tone. Palmer nodded and entered the car. The air car then immediately flew away from the place.
I\'m totally awe stricken seeing that. "Don\'t tell me his father is a CEO of some retail chain." I mumbled in dejection. This explains why he has exotic flowers in his storage bracelet. I wasted too much time in following him yet at least I came to know this guy is not simple.
With that I immediately return toward my home. Since this plan went down the gutter. I need to focus on my part time job interview this coming weekend. Just as I was walking slowly along the path. I bump into a few thugs who are planning to rob me.
"Hey, Kid. If you want to walk away from here. Hand over all of your money." A burly middle aged man said in a threatening tone.
"Seriously!" I uttered in an annoying tone.
I can\'t feel any thread of mana from these people. Which shows they are regulars. I don\'t know whether something is wrong with their mind or what. They can see I\'m a student, but they clearly fail to notice I\'m a mage student.
Without giving them any attention, I walked away from them. If I even mistakenly killed them. It will cause a lot of trouble. Seeing that Vincent is walking away without giving them any f**k.
"You stop it right there." The burly middle aged man rushed to stop Vincent with his companion.
"Pfff" "Pfff"
I gently kicked their abdomen one by one. With agonizing pain they fell on the ground.
Seeing that I shrugged off and walked away immediately. A several minutes later. I reached home. Only mum and brother are back home, Dad is having a night shift. After having a small conversation. I went back to my room to practice.
Back in my room, After wearing some comfortable clothes. I plan to practice mental methods before getting a bath. My room has enough space to sit and practise. I opened the window door for air circulation.
After doing that I sat cross legged and began to run the mental method. For a while, I wasn\'t able to sense any thread of mana. But slowly as I immersed myself in it. I begin to sense the world of mana around me.
Several dazzling colors shine brightly amongst it. It\'s a pity that I can only sense it is far. If it\'s a highly concentrated mana chamber, I don\'t need to focus my entire attention on sensing mana. It is very draining.
Having no other choice, I slowly begin to concentrate on grey color threads among those mana. The grey color mana is related to Gravity Power. Unlike elemental mana they are quite scattered.
Time passes slowly, small sweat beads beginning to drip from my forehead. My earth grade mental method actually comes quite handy in this situation. As I focusses on their color threads, due to mental method attraction. They are beginning to shift towards me.
Slowly, my body begins to absorb the gravity power. Though the absorption rate is quite fast, the presence of Gravity Mana in this place is quite low. I already absorbed enough gravity mana.
When I finished my practice, my entire back was drenched in sweat. Seeing my state, I immediately rushed to take a bath. It only makes me eager to train in a mana filled chamber more.
A few minutes later, I wore casual clothes after the bath. And immediately begin to check my job application status on the site. As I logged in my credentials, I found out there is yet to be any action taken. I wonder how many people have applied for this job. Because of the high death rate, I don\'t believe it\'s will be many.
With a sigh, I closed the site. Suddenly, I received a call from Fatty Lucas. Instead of answering it via my watch, I grabbed my phone and attended the call.
"Lucas, What is it?" I said.
"Ahem, Today I got mana filled meat to eat for practice. If you had come together with me, you might have tasted it." Lucas said in a happy tone.
"Mana Meat for practice uh? Don\'t tell me you only need to eat food." I replied in a questioning tone.
"Ha…Ha…Ha…., Don\'t forget my magic power?" Fatty Lucas sounded triumphant.
Hearing that I felt displeased. If not for his mana food industry behind his back, I wouldn\'t have allowed him to stick with me. Who doesn\'t want to form a cool team? But I happen to stick with that guy, because he is easy to read and much easier to lead. So he is no threat at all, I can only see benefits around him. I hope I can eat some mana meat tomorrow.
As the thought came to my mind, I immediately asked, "Lucas, what about tomorrow? Can we go."
Lucas answered, "Oh yes, we can go daily. But my father will reprimand me. So you can come with me once in a while. You don\'t need to pay anything. "
Hearing that I cracked a smile. Fatty won\'t tell his parents about his situation in his school. Nobody wants friends with him. Entire girls treat him as a plague, they are quite scared of his magic power.
Looks like to enjoy more mana food, I need to protect him. For that he needs to get thrashed continually.
