Chapter: 591

How could the skill say ‘undetectable’ and do something as flashy as this?

As Jay watched though, people seemed to ignore it though; they kept going about their business as if nothing was happening.

Some of them even walked right through the strand, passing harmlessly through it.

Jay sighed in relief as he realised only he could see it.

Thankfully the mage hunter didn’t turn around either, so it seemed that it truly was ‘undetectable’.

Slowly, the red strand left Jay and coiled around the guard before disappearing.

Jay kept walking past as innocently as he could – but now there was a difference: he could sense the guard.

Similar to his necrotic sense skill, he knew exactly where the guard was even while he wasn’t looking at him.

While couldn’t sense which direction the guard was looking, he was nevertheless satisfied with the skill.

Besides, one maximum mana to track an enemy was an excellent trade-off.

“I guess it would be ten mana if I used all the marks, but that’s fine.” he nodded with a sneaky smile.

As Jay looked over the mark skill it was now at 1/10 marks. He realised the skill didn’t have a level, so unfortunately, he could only have ten active marks at once.

He had a cheeky smile as he thought about marking every human in sight, but he thought that it was probably best that he couldn’t.

Still, as he passed through Losla, he saw a few more guards, and added two more marks.

Jay ducked around a corner and his butchery shop was in sight – but he sensed something wrong: One of the marks was moving towards him, and at a high speed too.

Beginning to panic a little he looked around for somewhere to hide. A small alleyway on the other side of the street.

He dashed into the alley; it was some trash piled up on one side, along with a stray cat which quickly scurried away, startled as Jay charged in.

The mark was already in the street, and Jay thought he was too slow, though to Jay’s surprise the mark passed by the alleyway. A small puff of wind entered the alleyway as the mage hunter passed by at high speed.

Jay released a heavy breath as he felt like death passed over him.

He stared back into the street, wondering what the hell was happening to make the mage hunter speed through the streets so quickly… and coincidentally in his direction. He definitely wouldn’t have seen them coming if he didn’t use the mark skill, but even with the warning it wasn’t enough to evade; he was simply ignored as it seemed the mage hunter had other priorities.

He sensed the black guard speeding down the street, so slowly, he crept to the end of the passage and peeked around the corner. He expected it to be out of sight by the time he got there, though it seemed that it suddenly stopped.

“…” Jay hoped it was a mere coincidence the mage hunter stopped right outside of his butchery.


“I have a crime to report, and it seems that the guild leader doesn’t care so I am bringing it to you.”

Viladore gained another audience with the mage hunters – though it cost him gold this time.

After attempting his persuasion he noticed they simply didn’t care, so he was forced to add a riskier lie.
