Episode 481

#481. I found out too late.

Medusa’s head was known as a representative of the unknown land along with the Amazon.

Although the area was small, not much larger than the Amazon, each area frequently experienced unusual phenomena that could not be seen anywhere else.

It was common for messaging skills to not work as they do now.

‘Besides, there are quite a few missing hunters. There may be some danger lurking. We have to finish this work as quickly as possible.’

So we decided to rule out the second priority goal.

Master Pierrot, who is evaluated as crazy even within Mirage, was actually a very smart crazy guy.

Illusion was the reason he was promoted.

“Well, killing them wouldn’t be a bad choice either.”

Master Pierrot, having organized his plan, stood in search of an operational location.

It was now hunting time.

* * *

Gary Dee asked back.

“Is that clown here?”

“I guess you know him. You must be close. You followed me here.”

Gary Dee smiled bitterly as Mr. Joe groaned.

“I guess you don’t even think about the fact that there’s a guy out there who wants to kill me that much.”

“There are so many people who want to kill you Mirage. There’s no way terrorists can form camaraderie with each other, so it’d be better if they didn’t fight.”

“How sharp.”

“Don’t act like you’re not feeling it. You blew people away at the festival, and just seeing your face makes me want to punch you.”

Gary Dee sweatdropped as Mr. Joe thrust his fist.

It wasn’t much of an experience, but she was definitely not an ordinary woman. It was strange for a woman to be called ‘Mr.’

I was curious as to why, but I didn’t have the courage to ask. I thought it would be annoying if I got involved.

It was Kang Moo-hyuk who saved Gary Dee, who was embarrassed by the hostility that Mr. Joe was spewing.

“So who is this Master Pierrot?”

“He is the leader of the ‘Clown’, an execution unit that carries out Illusion-nim’s orders.”

“I just heard about that. Any other information?”

“Not much is known about Pierrot. Perhaps only Illusion-nim knows.”

“Just tell me your actions. I’ll make the judgment.”

Gary Dee spoke plainly of Master Pierrot.

“This is a unit that has been eliminating those who interfere with the organization while traveling around Central and South America, Africa, and the Middle East. It is not well known to the outside world. That means they are a unit that does their job perfectly. They leave no survivors behind.”

“Judging by the way you open your mouth so easily, you don’t seem very friendly.”

“After all, since he leads Miraju’s combat unit, he’s a rival. And there are hardly any people in the organization who like him.”

Kang Moo-hyuk could see why Hyun Jeong-geon and Mr. Cho had returned.

“You must be a Mirage executive like you who competed. You must have a teleportation scroll as well. You came to borrow Hyun Jeong-geon Hunter and Thomas Hunter.”

“That’s right. We have to make sure they don’t escape. If they catch him, that’s great. If they can’t catch him, they have to be killed.”

Kang Moo-hyuk looked back at Thomas, but did not say any orders or requests.

This was because Thomas’ physical condition could not be clearly diagnosed.

Thomas nodded, noticing what Kang Mu-hyeok’s eyes meant.

“That’s okay. It’s just a matter of dispersing the magic activation structure, so it’s not that difficult.”

“I’m sorry for continuing to push you.”

“Isn’t that why you brought me here? I know I have a big part to play in your plans, Commander. Unless it’s that giant guy from earlier, I won’t faint again.”

“I guess we just have to pray that another monster like Kub doesn’t appear again.”

Kang Moo-hyuk sincerely hoped that Thomas wouldn’t have to do anything too unreasonable.

* * *

Mr. Joe and Hyun Jeong-geon went back into the jungle. Thomas also left without anyone knowing.

Their places were filled by Alex and Raven.

The fact that the Federation’s Hunters were monitoring Gary Dee wasn’t simply because it was the Commander’s order.

Gary Dee was a member of the Miraju organization that the Federation was pursuing, and he accepted the mission without complaint because he had to remove the obstacles to find Ayla as soon as possible.

Kang Moo-hyuk shared the current situation with the Eagles. Then he slightly increased the attack force’s movement speed.

If the clown were to chase the raid party, he would be out of stealth and his location would be revealed.

The pair of Mr. Cho and Hyun Jeong-geon were planning to snipe at that very moment.

‘That guy is crawling over there.’

Hyun Jeong-geon tapped Mr. Joe on the shoulder. Mr. Joe checked and let him pass. After that, he continued to check the enemy’s location.

The two, who had been hiding under the bushes, began to move only after confirming that the enemy could no longer be found.

Mr. Joe said.

“I’m on the right line. Mr. Hyun is on the left. Okay?”

“Who will play the clown?”

“I’ll catch him.”

The answer came from Thomas, who suddenly appeared.

“Miss, this is a surprise. Make some noise and go around.”

Mr. Joe grimaced, holding his thumping chest. Hyun Jeong-geon was also shocked, but he didn’t say anything.

‘This is the magician’s stealth ability? I didn’t notice it at all. Is it true that the S-rank wall is on a different level?’

Mr. Joe calmed his surprised heart and asked.

“Are you okay? The person who is making a fuss?”

“As long as the opponent isn’t S-rank, there’s no problem as it is now.”

Mr. Joe nodded as Thomas showed his confidence.

“Well, I think it’s funny to worry about S-rank. Well then, good hunting.”

Thomas disappeared immediately. Neither of the two remaining hunters could follow his movements with their eyes at all.

The two felt dizzy at the sight of the sickly(?) S-rank’s might.

“It’s reassuring to think of them as my allies. But it’s also creepy to think of them as my enemies. Somehow, I feel sorry for the clown.”

“Don’t worry about useless things and don’t make mistakes, Joe Gaya.”

“You do your best.”

“I’ll hit you from behind. You’ll be too focused on the front, so you’ll be slow to respond. When you get the chance, kill him in one breath.”

“Who are you ordering me to? I’m Mr. Joe. I don’t do it, but it’s scary when I decide to do it.”

Even though he was grimacing with his petite body, he was not threatening at all.

Hyun Jeong-geon turned around, letting out a hollow laugh.

“Don’t be hunted. You are my number one priority.”

In the death list.

“… … .”

Soon, Mr. Joe, who was left alone, was thinking back to Hyun Jeong-geon’s words from earlier with a strange expression.

‘What? Just now?’

With his thoughts in a complicated mess, Mr. Joe could barely come to a conclusion.

“Oh my, this popularity. This woman is a devilish woman. Even if I just stay still, I’m bewitched.”

Mr. Joe transformed into the form of Pedro that he had copied earlier and moved towards the target. The dagger was spinning in her hand.

“I’m sorry, but Mr. Hyun is not my type.”

* * *

Master Pierrot, who was targeting his prey, suddenly felt a sense of incongruity.

‘Something is wrong.’

He couldn’t tell what the problem was, but his intuition told him that something was wrong.

He pretended not to notice it and tried to find the source of the strangeness somehow.

His efforts had paid off, and he soon figured out why.

‘The forest is dead.’

The sounds of insects that could be heard just a moment ago, the cries of monsters that could be heard from afar, even the sound of leaves rustling in the wind and vines rustling, had all disappeared.

It was a truly silent world. The expression “dead” was appropriate.

‘Since when has it been like this?’

The environment changed so naturally that I didn’t even notice it.

Master Pierrot suspected that he had entered the realm of dangerous monsters like the giant he had seen at first.

But soon I realized that there were no problems with the targets that had gone before, and I erased that assumption.

“Or did I touch something?”

It was when I was muttering like that.

“I did touch him. Our leader’s temper.”

In a world where there was no sound, the only voice that answered interrupted.

Master Pierrot jumped back and threw poison in the direction the voice had come from, putting some distance between them.

In an instant, a wind appeared in the world where the wind had disappeared. The wind blew away the poison. The trees that had been touched by the poison turned black and then instantly rotted and decayed.

“It’s poisonous, but not as much as our guild’s poisoner.”

Thomas evaluated Master Pierrot’s poison, recalling the leopard print.

He had heard about the abilities of the high-ranking hunters belonging to the guild from Kang Mu-hyeok.

It was part of preparations to attack the gate in the near future.

Even if you are S-ranked, it is difficult to break the gate with solo play. At least knowing the characteristics of the high-ranking hunters who will be participating in the raid will make things easier.

While Thomas was absentmindedly thinking about something else for a moment, Master Pierrot snorted and pulled out a sickle-shaped weapon.

“You’re taking it easy.”

“spare?”

“Just now, a skill. Magic, right? I admit that I did something quite embarrassing. However, it was a mistake for a magician to appear alone in front of a dealer.”

“mistake?”

The moment Thomas tilted his head, Master Pierrot quickly approached.

Even among the same hunters, there was a big difference in the agility of magicians and dealers.

It wasn’t a flat terrain that was conducive to long-range attacks, and in a jungle with lots of cover, a distance of just 10 meters was like sticking your neck out to be killed.

“Die… Laat?”

bang!

Master Pierrot’s vision flipped upside down in an instant. The sky and the ground were reversed. He felt a shock on his back. He saw tree branches towering over his head.

And then the wizard’s face suddenly appears before your eyes.

“I wish I could be caught like Gary Dee when I say nice things.”

“… … .”

“Judging by your expression, it doesn’t seem like you’ll be able to catch him quietly?”

“profit!”

Master Pierrot rolled over and jumped up from his seat.

I lost my balance again and fell over.

‘What is this? What happened to me?’

Thomas thrust his face in again.

“surrender?”

At the same time, a poisonous needle was shot from Master Clown’s mouth.

Unfortunately, the stinger hung in midair.

Master Pierrot did not give up and jumped up again.

He admitted that his opponent was no ordinary wizard.

‘The surprise attack is over. Instead, we just focus on killing this guy.’

He took a small whistle out of his bosom. He intended to call all the clowns together and eliminate the wizard.

but,

“The sound… … .”

No matter how hard I blew the whistle, the sound did not spread.

“It’s a simple barrier. Not bad, right? But you don’t have the ability to learn, do you? You should have known that it wouldn’t make a sound.”

I forgot about it as we were having a natural conversation.

That the sound has disappeared inside.

Master Pierrot hurriedly pulled out his teleport scroll. He didn’t care if his subordinates were all wiped out. He just had to return alive.

“Just wait and see. I’ll be back.”

He tore the scroll with all his might. And nothing happened.

“Why… why?!”

Thomas approached.

“You can come as you please, but you must ask my permission to leave.”

Only then did Master Pierrot realize that the reason the teleportation was blocked was because of the wizard in front of him.

“Gary Dee… There was a reason Scarecrow was hurt.”

“I found out too late.”

The wind was woven into Thomas’s hand. Although it was invisible, the strong flow of mana made him feel magical.

Master Pierrot gritted his teeth and growled.

“You Gary! You should have died before you got caught!”

Kwaaaaang!

Then a strong wind blew in and turned the jungle into a wasteland.
