Chapter 157: The Man-Eater's Lair
Chapter 157: The Man-Eater's LairThe city was on edge.News reports played on every channel, every screen, every phone. The Man-Eater had struck again—three more victims in the past week. The death toll was rising.People were terrified.The mayor held a press conference, his face grim. "Effective immediately, a curfew will be enforced from 6 PM to 6 AM. No one is to leave their homes after dark. This is for your safety."The city obeyed.Streets that were once bustling at night were now empty. Shops closed early. Restaurants shuttered their doors. The only people out after dark were patrols—police officers, HIA investigators, and hunters.---Two hundred meters away from a seemingly abandoned building, a team gathered.Sophia, Jaxen, Jack, and a dozen officers in full armor stood in the shadows, their eyes fixed on the structure."You sure this is the building?" Officer Benson asked.
Chapter 156: The Survivor
Chapter 156: The Survivor Cindy lay in her hospital bed, staring at the ceiling. She had been here for three days. Three days of tests, of therapy, of people asking her how she felt. She didn't know how she felt. She didn't know if she felt anything at all. Her friends were dead. All of them. She had watched them die—watched the Man-Eater tear them apart, watched him eat them. And she had survived. Why? The question haunted her. She couldn't sleep. She couldn't eat. She just stared at the ceiling and waited. For what, she didn't know. --- On the fourth day, she was transferred. They took her to a facility on the outskirts of the city—a place for people who had experienced trauma. It was quiet, peaceful, surrounded by trees and gardens. Cindy didn't care. She was given a room, a schedule, and a therapist. She was told to rest, to recover, to heal. She just stared at the wall. --- But the days passed. And slowly, she started to notice things. The other patients. The way
Chapter 155: The Man-Eater
Chapter 155: The Man-Eater The nightclub doors swung open, and a group of teenagers stumbled out into the cool night air. They were laughing, their voices loud and carefree. Three girls, two boys. Two of the girls were holding hands with the boys—couples, happy and drunk. The third girl walked alone, a small smile on her face as she watched her friends. "You're always the third wheel," one of the girls teased, leaning against her boyfriend. "When are you gonna find someone?" The single girl laughed. "When the right one shows up." "Better hurry," the other boy joked. "We're not gonna wait forever." They walked down the empty street, their footsteps echoing off the buildings. The city was quiet at this hour—most people were asleep, most businesses closed. The single girl glanced behind her. A figure stood at the end of the street, watching them. She frowned. "Hey... someone's following us." Her friend waved a hand dismissively. "You're just being paranoid." "Yeah," one of the
Chapter 154: The Return of Peter
Chapter 154: The Return of Peter A light appeared in the sky. It streaked across the atmosphere like a comet—bright, blinding, impossible to ignore. People stopped and stared. Some thought it was a meteor. Others thought it was the end of the world. But it wasn't a meteor. It was Peter. He flew through the clouds, his body wrapped in a golden aura, his eyes fixed on the city below. He had traveled across the void of space, through the threshold, past the barriers that separated worlds. And now he was home. --- Liberty Guild headquarters was bustling with activity. Sophia was in the main hall, reviewing raid reports with Anthony. Robert and Lana were training in the yard. Jack was reading in the library. Elara was in the medical wing, organizing supplies. Everything was normal. Until the ceiling exploded. Boom! Peter crashed through the roof, landing in the center of the hall. Debris rained down. Dust filled the air. Everyone froze. Sophia's eyes widened. "Peter?" He did
Chapter 153: The New Recruit
Chapter 153: The New Recruit The ink was barely dry on the contract. Elara stood in Bill's office, a pen in her hand, a smile on her face. The contract lay on the desk in front of her—a formal agreement binding her to Liberty Guild. "Do you, Elara Vane, agree to join Liberty Guild as an official hunter, to uphold its values, to protect its members, and to fight for the safety of humanity?" "I do." Bill grinned. "Welcome to the family." He stamped the contract, and the room erupted in applause. Sophia, Anthony, Robert, Lana, and Jack were all there, clapping and cheering. "Another S-rank!" Bill shouted, raising his hands to the ceiling. "A national-level hunter, an S-rank mage, and two elite A-ranks! We're unstoppable!" He laughed—a loud, joyous sound that echoed through the building. "I've waited years for this," he said, wiping a tear from his eye. "Years! And now—now we're a force to be reckoned with!" --- The celebration was brief. The next day, Elara was assigned to he
Chapter 152: The Final Tests
Chapter 152: The Final Tests The day of the finals arrived. Elara stood in the main hall with the other students, her heart pounding. Weeks of training, studying, and simulations had led to this moment. The headmaster stood at the front, his voice echoing through the hall. "Today, you will face your final tests. There will be three stages. Each will challenge you in different ways. You will be evaluated on your performance, and your final rank will be determined." He paused. "The first stage is the written exam. You will have two hours to complete it. You may begin." --- The written exam was brutal. Questions covered everything—mana theory, monster classifications, dungeon protocols, emergency procedures, combat strategies, healing techniques. Elara's hand cramped as she wrote. Her mind raced as she answered. Some questions were easy. Others made her pause, think, reconsider. What is the optimal mana output for a tier-three healing spell on a patient with internal bleeding?
