The Hero of Shadow Hunter (English)

94

" Well, which one of you should I kill first? "

The appearance of an enemy figure among them alerted Thomas and Ichirou. Moreover, with the huge mana wave similar to the monster's mana they fell from this unknown enemy.

Even so, Ichirou and Thomas knew that the enemy in front of them was strong, but they still maintained calm when analyzing the enemy. Moreover, the calm atmosphere around them made them even more alert.

When the tension rose they immediately raised their mana and prepared to fight. Enormous mana immediately swirled around them filling the room with a huge wave of mana.

There was one strange thing that they felt, namely that no Hunters came despite the large waves of mana they released, and the fact that they were near the Central Tower made the two even more confused. Both Ichirou and Thomas immediately realized that fact and felt the strangeness of their situation. No one came and the situation around them was too quiet, as if they were in separate spaces. Seeing their reaction, the enemy just smiled.

" That's right, this place has been isolated from the outside world. "

" Who are you? "

Not answering Ichirou's question, the figure then raised his hand, and ice shards quickly formed around him. Instantly the ice shards immediately attacked them. The speed of the ice was very fast but they were still able to avoid it.

The environment around them was immediately damaged by falling pieces of ice and the room temperature quickly dropped drastically. Ice shards scattered everywhere and a light mist formed around them.

Seeing his target escape so easily, the old man once again snorted. He thought they would get away with it and it still didn't change anything.

The first attack was meant to be a test, but the next attack was the real deal. As the room temperature dropped further, tens to hundreds of ice needles the size of spears immediately formed in the air and aimed at the two of them. Without giving them any time to breathe, the needles immediately rained down on them at a terrifying speed.

While Ichirou was busy dodging, Thomas was still able to stay where he was well. He didn't dodge, in his hands golden armor formed and he repelled all the attacks that came towards him. Even so, in this fight, Ichirou was quite at a disadvantage because he didn't carry a weapon, while Thomas looked fine because his weapon was his own body.

The attacks continued until Ichirou was cornered. Having nowhere else to dodge, Ichirou then focused his mana into his hands and formed a mana blade. He then slashed all the ice needles that came attacking him.

But even so, some of the needles finally escaped and managed to leave wounds on him. Without giving a pause, the enemy suddenly appeared in front of Ichirou and attacked him using Ice Breath Attack which made Ichirou trapped in a block of ice. Realizing one of his opponents was missing, he turned his attention to his main prey.

The old man walked towards Thomas, in his hand a spear was formed which he pointed at him. Thomas could feel a strong killing aura radiating from the old man. Even though he flinched a little, he still tried to maintain his composure. He looked at the enemy in front of him who still had a calm face.

" Who are you? "

" I hoped you would recognize me without me telling you, but it seems you are still a mere human after all. "

" So are you saying you're not human? Then, are you the perpetrator who killed Cristopher? "

Instead of answering, the old man immediately launched an attack on Thomas. Thomas immediately parried the attack which caused him to be pushed back. Thomas immediately counterattacked by throwing his fist at his enemy. However, his attack was immediately blocked by a chunk of ice that suddenly formed between them. As the distance was regained, three ice spears struck him again with terrifying speed.
