Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

A few days later,

The Kramer crew had entered the dark forest. Unlike the Oslen family, they are traveling slowly and steadily. 

And from time to time they are changing places to set up camps.

Right now, they have settled down in an open field in the dark forest. Dudley Kramer is lying in the recliner. The butler is massaging his legs.

The elder Clayton went to investigate the surroundings. He will not return until he checks the area. 

Everyone knows the dark forest is filled with traps. One mistake can lead to death. So Elder Clayton made his routine to investigate the surroundings whenever they stopped by to rest.

At the same time, Dudley Kramer opened his eyes. Looking at the butler he asked, "He will not be back for at least 2 hrs right?"

The butler felt the soul leave his body. He anxiously replied, "Young master, the dark forest is full of dangers. We should not move around without the elder's protection."

Dudley Kramer sneered. Even in the family, he didn't listen to anyone. But under Elder Clayton, he feels suffocated. But he is not stupid to offend such a person.

He just wants to look around at what this place looks like. Are the legends true? A lot of doubt appeared in his heart. 

Then suddenly he thought about someone.

"Why didn't we see the traces of the Oslen carriage?"

"Have they gone so deep?" He muttered to himself.

The butler shut his mouth. He didn't want to give any opinion. Otherwise, the young master would ask back-to-back questions.

Also, the elder Clayton warned him privately. The elder Clayton doesn't want to hear any nonsense. So he forbade him from supporting the young master's willful thoughts.

Dudley Kramer noticed the butler's expression. A trace of contempt flashes in my eyes. The Butler was too cowardly. He can see that he was hesitant to speak.

Dudley Kramer shifted his attention back to the surroundings. Lying in the recliner all day long makes him bored.

He can't even use his magic. Because it will make him consume the mana essence. And Elder Clayton forbade him to do that. 

"Harumph," The next second, Kramer stood up from the recliner. A cold snort left his mouth in anger.

The butler standing right next to him was scared sh!t.

"Young master?" The butler's voice sounded anxious.

"I'm just taking a walk. So don't follow me," Kramer said without turning his back. 

But the butler forced himself to follow.

After taking dozens of steps, Dudley Kramer notices that someone is following him. He wants to teach a lesson to the cowardly butler.

But his rational mind told him not to do that. If the butler gets bedridden then who will take care of him?

He also knows that Elder Clayton won't sit idle. He will make even harsher rules. After controlling his anger, he continued to walk through the forest.

The butler follows with a panic-stricken face. As the seconds pass, his bad promotion gets stronger. He doesn't know where this feeling comes from. 

So the butler wants to take back the young master as soon as possible.

Shortly after, Dudley Kramer found an uneven mound on the ground. His eyes flickered with interest after seeing such a structure on the ground.

"I bet something is inside this structure. Maybe treasures?" He said to himself.

Dudley Kramer plans to dig up the site. Fortunately, the butler followed him along the way.

But even before he could do that he saw something standing above the mound. When he raised his head to see. 

He felt goosebumps all over his body. Someone wearing fully covered long sleeve clothes looked at him with a creepy smile.

An alarm bell rang in Dudley's mind. His face became bloodless. He knows if he stays there he will die. 

When he tried to turn back. His entire body froze in mid-air. Dudley became pale with fright. Not a single sound left his mouth. He can't even make a move.

The stranger didn't waste any time after capturing the target; he disappeared from the spot.

From beginning to end the butler hiding behind the tree has witnessed everything. Horror can be seen on his face. 

"Young master is gone, "After uttering that, he slumped on the ground.

A few hours later,

Elder Clayton returns to the campsite. But to his disappointment, he didn't see anyone in the camp. 

Both Dudley Kramer and the butler are nowhere to be seen. 

"These morons," His eyes reddened with anger. He completely regrets undertaking this task. 

The unruly young master of the Kramer family is making his job difficult. He had reprimanded that arrogant man many times. 

Yet he doesn't listen. Elder Clayton frowned. He can see that no one is moving in the vicinity. 

So where have they gone? Then he decides to wait for half an hour. If they still don't come back, then he decides to go and search for himself.

30 minutes later,

Elder Clayton starts to fly over the surrounding areas. He fears that Dudley Kramer activated evil traps. 

No average wizard can find their traces. And for Dudley Kramer, there is no way he would escape from traps.

That's why he has been doing a routine inspection of the surroundings. But these people don't even listen to him.

If anything happens to that arrogant kid, then the entire Kramer family makes him a scapegoat. He can't even escape by using his good relationship with their family head.

In desperation, he began an intense search. Not long after, he saw the butler collapse on the ground. 

But there is no sign of Dudley Kramer with him. He can tell that they came a long way down the camp. And the butler followed his young master to come here.

So where is he? Clayton frowned. He thought he escaped the catastrophe. But No? Dudley Kramer might have gone deeper into the woods.

To confirm it, he decides to interrogate the Butler. Then he took him back to the camp. 

A few minutes later,

He poured cold water on the butler's head. 

"Young master, run?" The butler shouted as he regained consciousness.

Clayton squinted his eyes. He can see that both had encountered danger.

When the butler met Clayton's gaze. He shuddered in fear. Then he remembered someone kidnapped the young master.

The butler began to speak. He said someone appeared fully covered in dark cloth. And that person didn't even speak. He captured the young master and disappeared from the spot.

But Clayton felt a thunderclap ring in his ears. He doesn't believe in ghosts. He believes someone has intentionally done that. 

If anything happens to Dudley then it's all over. Then his gaze fell on the butler. 

Pfff~

The next second, the butler's head burst into pieces like a watermelon. If the butler had done his job, then the situation would have been different. 

Clayton then disappeared from the spot. He decides to search for Dudley Kramer. Only can find him, he can escape the wrath of the Kramer Family.

Tud~

The headless corpse of the butler dropped ok to the ground. His poor life comes to an end.

...

A few miles away from the kidnapped incident,

A monster carriage stops under a giant shade tree. The giant shade tree provides natural cover.

So Linda Oslen decides to stop here. After getting out of the carriage. The maid sets up a table and chair within minutes.

Then Linda leisurely sat down on the chair and the maid started serving tea.

A trace of sadness flashes in Linda's eyes. They have been traveling all day long. If they continue to travel at the same pace, they will reach the end of the dark forest in a few days.

But she doesn't know how her family members are doing. 

"Miss, you are still worrying about the others," Jane said.

Linda Oslen replied, "Yes, I hope they will survive in the end."

"It depends on the will of powerful existence in both the Nobel family," Jane added further.

Hearing that Linda's eyes dimmed. But she didn't refute it. The sole ones responsible for this disaster are those 2 powerful beings. 

"If the Academy was powerful, then these 2 noble families wouldn't dare to make any noises," Linda commented.

A hint of complexity flashes in Jane's eyes.

"Miss, the academy has long since fallen. Now the descendants of the wizard families were controlling the Academy."

"And it's futile to ask them for help. The academy has the support of both families. Hardly anyone is neutral there."Maid Jane said.

Sipping tea, Linda quietly listens to her. But Jane's next words surprised her.

"Miss, why don't we run away to a foreign country?"Jane asked.

Linda's beautiful eyebrows trembled. 

"Jane, I won't leave my family behind. And you know that. I just hope to return quietly when everything settles down," Linda said to her.

Sigh~

Jane sighed. But she decided to persevere. If everything goes according to Miss' wishes. Then she will be happy for her. 

But if things go wrong, then she can't let Miss go back to the tiger's den.
