Chapter 99: Veiled in Shadows
The sun was already high up in the sky, bathing the entire forest in its warmth. There were chirping of birds as they flew in flocks across the sky, headed in several directions. Occasionally, one could hear a cacophony of sounds made by different kinds of animals.Ezra and Mira could be seen searching the corpses for a map to Bravehearts Town. They had mentioned coming from a town like that.After a thorough search, Ezra finally found the map on Salvatore's corpse. It was a rumpled piece of leather having the map of an unknown region crudely drawn on it."You found it?" Mira asked."Yes," he replied. "Now we're going to head to Bravehearts Town. We need rest more than ever."He then began studying the map seriously, marking out shortcuts which he would take to the town. It was a laborious thing to do because this was his first time reading a map. Actually, he had learnt to do so but had not applied that knowledge.In a couple of minutes, he was already done with studying the map. It
Chapter 98: Inevitable Future
After killing Salvatore, Ezra was supposed to have a deep sense of victory. He was supposed to be joyous because he had effortlessly killed the powerful hunters and his men.But he didn't feel anything. There was no joy from killing those cultivators who had tried to kill him and Mira. If anything, he felt very empty.He turned to look at Mira and saw that she had a small smile on her face. Obviously, she didn't share the same feelings as him. She was happy about killing another intermediate cultivator like her."Why is your face like that?" Mira asked him, walking closer."Like what?" Ezra asked."Like everything else doesn't matter," she replied.When he heard this, he chuckled. But it wasn't because he found the question funny. It was because he found everything ironic.At first, he had been elated about possessing the Echelon system—about being a player. But along the line, as he advanced, it didn't matter anymore. He had already exerted his revenge.If it were someone else, they
Chapter 97: The Last Swing
Meanwhile, Salvatore and Ezra were still locked in a fierce combat. Well, it was a one-sided, fierce battle because Ezra wasn't using all his strength to fight the hunter.Unbeknownst to Salvatore, Samantha had already been killed by Mira. Perhaps if he had known on time, then he would have already known that this battle was a lost cause. All his men had already fallen, and he was the only one left standing.But now there was no coming back since he actually tried to kill Ezra and Mira. And there was no forgiveness for that—not on Ezra's part.His muscles stiffened as he exerted strength into his arms, swinging his axe at Ezra. His hulking figure easily towered above the Echelon player, casting a small shadow on him.The air tightened. The ground shuddered. And then the axe connected with Ezra's neck. Well, it almost slashed off the Echelon player's neck. But Ezra was too fast and easily dodged the axe.What the—Salvatore widened his eyes, realizing that his axe didn't actually cleave
Chapter 96: Costly Mistake
Watching all his men except the female hunter fall under Ezra's katana made Salvatore to shudder. He wanted to instantly turn around and escape, terrified that the young man in front of him was nothing but a monster. But since he was still using the Mind Pill Technique and hadn't deactivated it, he was filled with an unhealthy amount of confidence which couldn't be explained.Also, even if he would have deactivated the technique his pride didn't allow him to do so. He had faced so many monsters and defeated other cultivators as well. Hence he couldn't bring himself to accept defeat from an unknown stranger who didn't look more than seventeen years of age. It would be very humiliating if other cultivators within Bravehearts Town were to learn of this incident.No, I can't turn back now, Salvatore thought within himself. I've lost all my men, leaving Samantha. There is no way I'm going to quit now. I'd rather fight and die like a hunter I am than to beg for mercy or run. Running or begg
Chapter 95: Horrifying
Ezra stood calmly, staring at the remaining eight hunters from the Salvatore Gang. He could see the horror in their eyes after seeing him easily behead one of their friends like that. But then he wasn't bothered one bit and continued to stare at them.He had asked them for directions and was waiting for their reply patiently. If they agreed to point him directions to Bravehearts Town then a whole lot of bloodshed would be avoided. In fact there was no need to kill anyone here because he had already killed a lot of people several hours ago. And it wasn't just a lot of people but thousands of them. Hence he wanted to avoid more bloodshed because he didn't want to seem like a coldblooded killer to Mira.But of course one of the hunters had decided to act stupid, trying to prove his strength by killing him. Annoyed by such a pathetic action he was compelled to kill the individual as a lesson to the rest. If they didn't learn from this lesson and decided to continue attacking him then it w
Chapter 94: Can Someone Give Me Directions?
Ezra and Mira continued travelling north without resting for an hour. Sometimes they would talk to each other, laughing and making jokes. Other times, they would be busy fighting off monsters which attacked them from nowhere. But majority of the time, there was peace and silence as they walked continuously.They were now in deep forests with tall and thick trees which stretched their branches, concealing the sunlight. Thus the atmosphere was colder here and damp. There were occasional hissing of snakes, howling of wolves, roaring of lions and chirping of birds. Maybe they were not the normal creatures and were actually monsters. But none of this deterred the couple as they continued walking.One of them was a professional cultivator while the other was an amateur cultivator. This combination created a perfect duo who were able to vanquish any monster which was crazy enough to think of attacking them. They were literally unstoppable.After walking for hours Mira finally became tired. B
