Chapter 158: Killing an Expert Level Mage

One wyvern goes down bringing a dozen of monsters along. And from the street, several people come out and tries to subjugate them. They are actually the king’s agents and they are pretending to be on the losing side so the governor’s guard will take action.

The civilians nearby have been evacuated so it’s fine to use powerful magic, but the agents didn’t do that and keep pretending being weak until the governor’s guards make action.

I think it’s fine for me to leave and try to get another one fall down here. Although the governor is still hasn’t come out, he will soon if he notice the monsters are here. That’s when Candy will take action.

I jumped over a building and this time, there’s another wyvern close to me. I just shot its wing and the wyvern lost its balance and dropped all the monsters on its back. All fallen near the first wyvern.

Since I completed my mission, I return to my search of separated cult members. But that’s when I noticed a gate is being broken through. People are running from that gate.

I looked over to that side and see that the hunters are running in fear of their lives. Not caring that they are letting innocent people die. I should have told Kayla to split the group so they can also protect that side.

There are four gates to enter this city. Kayla and the others are protecting the north side where the scout says the monsters from that side is more than the other gates. And the ones that got broken through was the south gate.

.....

Hmm? I see a black mantis protecting people on that side. Must be Victoria. She’s disguising herself into a giant mantis and pretend to be someone’s summoned monster. I guess I should help her since my job here is done.

Even though most hunters are weak, that shouldn’t make monsters able to penetrate our defense easily. There must be cult members disturbing the defense over there. And when I got closer, I can see that I’m correct. Some hunters who are running away are actually members of the cult with HGBs in their mouth. Maybe the one I killed was the cult members who should have disturbing the defense in the north gate. That’s why the north gate is safe.

I don’t know about other gates but since the monsters has started entering through the south gate, I should take care of those monsters who have entered and those people who caused it.

I approached a group of people who has HGB in their mouth and slash them with my spear. These people actually happily running around while everyone is panicking. I mean even without looking inside their mouth, I can see tell if they are a psychopath when they are smiling like that. Though I killed them all in one go. ????????????re????d. ????????????

This time, I no longer has any desire to capture anyone. Killing them is easier and faster. Those seven prisoners... six prisoners are enough for us.

I found another group hiding from the monsters and the hunters. They are also members of the cult. So I’m going to them for the kill.

It’s nice for them to keep explosive devices in their mouth. Making it easier for me to find if they are enemies. I hope they will keep the tradition forever. Well, until the cult is destroyed. Not forever.

I ran toward the new enemies, and once I’m about twenty meters, one guy suddenly turned their head at my location despite there are walls between us.

He’s an expert level mage!

I stopped instantly and entered one house and not moving at all pretending I’m a civilian looking for a place to hide. I’m still within his range but I pretend I don’t know and hide from the monsters. Lucky that the house I entered is an empty one. The owner must have been evacuated by the others.

I can see through the wall that the one who noticed me is talking to someone while pointing at my direction. His finger is pointing directly at my face. Expert level mages are scary.

I’m still wondering how Veronica didn’t notice me when I was so close to her back then. My theory is that she let down her guard. Or maybe, just like the rich students at school. Their parent gave them resources and they just continued cultivating without getting any experience against monster.

And Veronica is being nurtured by the cult. Since she’s an important figure for the cult, she is being protected even when she’s already expert level. And any enemies encounter is being taken care of by her guards so she never had a chance to fight for real. But with her strength, it was still enough for her to kill lower level mages.

Well, for now, her information for this stampede can be trusted. That’s all that matter. As for after the stampede, maybe I can arrange it so she can meet Albert. He will know if she’s telling the truth or not.

I look at the group I’m stalking and they seem to still be wary at me. Maybe pretending to hide is the wrong answer.

Instead of staying still, I move about inside the building I’m in pretending that I’m a thief hoping for fortunes during this dangerous time. This is more normal than hiding even though there are no enemies here.

The expert level mage now talking to the others and looking at his expression, I think he’s letting his guard down. Wait, no! He’s asking someone to check on me! I need to act more like a thief now.

I exited the building and go for another ones while rummaging the place. Now the ones whose job is to stalk me will know that I’m just a petty thief.

I keep moving from one building to another while also making sure that I’m closing the gap between me and the expert level mage. I don’t know why they are stopping there, but the longer they stay there, the more chance I will have.

While still being stalked, I pretend to enter the house next to the expert level mage making them think that I’m just a thief by grabbing some valuables. There’s a reason why I’m entering this house. Mainly to kill the expert level mage. There’s wall right between me and the expert level mage. If I’m using my full power to crash this wall, I can easily kill him.

While crouching and pretending I’m stealing some things, I prepared my Aura around my body but I concentrate more on my legs for the speed. Using a spear is difficult in this situation so I will rely on my fist first.

One of his allies is approaching him. My chance is when his ally is talking to him.

With him in front of me, and a stalker on my back, I have no escape route unless I kill them. Then I saw the newcomer approached the expert level mage. The mage turned his head slightly to look at his friend and that’s my chance!

While he’s slightly distracted, I crashed my body to the wall and destroy it. Then I went through the wall and attacked the expert level mage who has a confused expression on his face.

I concentrate my Aura to my right hand, then with my hand as a spear, I stabbed the expert level mage right through his heart. I can see really well how my hand pierced his heart. To make sure he really died, I moved my fingers I covered with Aura and destroying the heart.

Then I pulled out my hand as the expert level mage is falling to the ground, and I kicked with my left leg to the one who just spoke to him.

There are five people here. The expert level mage and two others are staying here. Then the newcomer who I just kicked to death, and one person who stalked me under the expert level mage’s order. I have killed two and three more to go.

The two here already preparing to cast their magic, but I’m faster than them. I took out two throwing knives and threw them at the two mages. The knives pierced their hearts. I have a really good accuracy, you know?

Then without looking on them, I entered the wall I destroyed and chase after the stalker who has started to escape.

With my 360 degree vision, I can see the other four already dead and this one is the last one. He didn’t even bother to check on his allies. The cult and its members are truly ruthless.

Seeing I’m getting closer to him, I saw he’s smiling. He didn’t prepare any magic so why would he smile?

Then I remembered that he has an explosive in his mouth. If I get to close to the explosion, I won’t be able to leave unharmed. So I retreated back before I get to close to him.

“Damn you cultist and your explosives!” I said to distract him and it worked.

“How did you-”

Before he finished his words, I already threw a knife at his heart.

“Phew, that was terrifying. I should check carefully again next time if there are possibly another expert level mages I will face. I did this one horribly and took a lot of time killing them all. I should leave now before someone else come.”

I left the location and continue going to the south gate to stop the monsters from destroying the city. I can only hope the other three gates are protected well.
