Chapter: 595
Viladore’s eyes were red as all he could do was watch.
Sullivan’s adventurer strength caused it to travel far beyond the walls of the guild.
Heavy footsteps came from the hallway.
All of it happened so fast, but now the mage hunters were here.
The mage hunters didn’t ask any questions as they tried to detain both Sullivan and Viladore.
The shout-spell ended, Viladore could finally move now.
“He tried to kill me!” he yelled, blood flowing from his mouth.
The mage hunters already knew Viladore was an ex-researcher who worked for them, while Sullivan on the other hand was exiled here for sheltering a variant.
They didn’t say anything, but showed favouritism to Viladore.
While they planned to arrest them both, Sullivan misread the intentions of the mage hunters.
His eyes glowed with power again.
Another wave of force pushed everything back.
The ground cracked under the spell; the walls barely remained standing even though they were reinforced with magic.
Viladore was smashed into a wall and knocked out.
The mage hunters were pushed back, but not far. Their armour blocked most of the spell.
This was considered a direct attack on the mage hunters. Each of them pulled out their black weapons: this target would not be arrested.
~Losla, alleyway~
A horn starts blaring, coming from the guild – a sign that Losla was under attack. It seemed quite odd though, as the mage hunters would have been there to protect them – why summon the feeble adventurers?
Jay quickly guessed that they were being summoned to search for him, adding pressure to him.
Jay had moved to another alley as the hunt for him began.
A mage hunter passed by and glared at him but soon left. It seemed they didn’t know what his face looked like yet.
“It’s only a matter of time before someone recognises me…” he thought.
Jay had been a popular adventurer in Losla after all, so most of the younger adventurers would recognise him. He wouldn’t be surprised if they even helped the guards to find him.
Jay quickly took off his iconic green molodus coat and replaced it with the dark hooded cloak he used to wear. He pulled the hood up to hide his face.
