I Am The Anti-Mage

Chapter 10: Deceiving

Under the shining of Moonlight, the top hill became brighter without any tree blocking it.

Kim Ji-woo motion that walked toward the Black Wolf with his spear, breaking the quiet night.

“Entertain me.”

The Black Wolf heard Ji-woo incite, gritted its teeth.

Grr, Grrr–

The Black Wolf’s four legs pressed into the ground. Then it jumped up against Ji-woo.

The movement was pretty fast that couldn’t be seen even with E-rank hunters. It even left an imprint on the ground in its way.

Wosh, Wosh–

However, the collision that was supposed to happen did not occur at all between the two.

Ji-woo dodged it with a hair-thin gap. He smiled, owning the missed confrontation from the Black Wolf.

The Black Wolf knew its attack was missed and immediately bounced back after landing on the ground.

The ground cracked due to the pressure of the Black Wolf’s feet, which took a leap toward Ji-woo.

Wosh, Sreek–

Another collision between Black Wolf and Ji-woo happened.

Ji-woo dodged it again, but this time was not perfect like the first one. His artifact suit clothing got torn on the chest while moving.

Despite all of that, Ji-woo still showed his subtle smile. While the Black Wolf was getting angered because its teeth could only tear the suit.

The Black Wolf stretched its legs and opened its mouth.

The fangs, which were formerly in their regular size, grew thicker and longer.

Grr, Krauk–

The Black Wolf gritted its teeth and tried to move its mouth to get used to the jaw and new fangs. The Black Wolf’s eyes became pitch black too.

Hursssh–

The Black Wolf breath emitted steam.

Ji-woo saw the transformation, instantly changing his body position. He moved his left leg to the front and his right leg to the back. Then stretch it, which made his upper body lower.

Ji-woo moved his right hand to the back a little while holding the end of the spear and moved his left hand at the same level as his shoulder. Put the part of the spear tip in the palm of his left hand at the front.

Wosh, Wosh–

Abruptly, the Black Wolf rushed at full speed.

At the same time, Ji-woo’s eyes were still on the target. And he stared at it fiercely with his fighting posture. He then matched the beast timing to thrust his spear with the stance.

Bang–

The next moment, the ring shock wave suddenly burst from the collision point.

The silhouette of Black Wolf was shot backward like a shell, leaving a series of traces on the ground on its way.

The Black Wolf was shot and flew out!

Gah, Gah–

“How can this be?”

The Black Wolf finally stopped the momentum of flying backward and spoke in misery.

The beast didn’t believe the force that Ji-woo had was more durable than itself.

A beast that was 2 meters tall and had a weight of 400 pounds.

Lose to a mere human?

More than that, the Black Wolf wounded its head and bled.

On the other side, Ji-woo didn’t suffer anything from the shock. He just got pushed back slightly.

Ji-woo was surprised that the thrust of the spear didn’t wound the Black Wolf deep enough.

“Sturdy.” Ji-woo found it amusing to confront this kind of creature.

“Who are you? You…, you’re not one of them!?”

The Black Wolf already saw earlier and evaluated the strength of the hunters when they killed the lone Silver Wolf.

All of those hunters can’t match up with Black Wolf’s raw strength. But, Ji-woo’s tenacity was capable of overwhelming the opponent.

Now, Ji-woo felt he had to rush to finish this Black Wolf.

Nevertheless, the Black Wolf didn’t give up. It charged once again and increased its speed.

Wosh, Wosh–

Der, Daar–

It moved randomly and bounced around, trapping Ji-woo in the middle of it.

But Ji-woo continued to strike with his spear at the Black Wolf whenever they intervened.

Wosh, Zwish–

This moment lasts for 5 minutes.

Before long,

The Black Wolf stopped its movement and fell down to the ground after getting wounded by the thrusts of the spear from Ji-woo.

Its breathing was so heavy, and blood came out from all over its wound on the body.

Kukukuku–

The Black Wolf couldn’t move anymore. But, its eyes still gazed furiously at Ji-woo, who was walking closer to the beast.

“Don’t think this is the end, human! Someday, we will take your world and destroy everything.”

Ji-woo paused his walk in front of the Black Wolf.

“I have no idea what you’re talking about it.

“Nor did I care whatever it was that.”

The Black Wolf was not happy with Ji-woo’s ignorant attitude.

“Human, you will die later!”

Kukukuku–

Ji-woo didn’t waste his time. He quickly thrust his spear to the beast’s head in blank range.

Zwish, Kuahk–

Splash–

Blood from the Black Wolf sprayed over Ji-woo’s artifact suit and some on his face.

Ji-woo knew about the Black Wolf warning.

‘My, My. I told it before. that I got cursed and have bad blood with Mana. Yet it wants to poison me with the black plasma?’

Ji-woo already saw the black blood from earlier.

Different from Silver Wolf, which poison comes out from the carcass. The Black Wolf’s blood seemed the one that contained the infection.

The only thing in common was that Ji-woo sensed the Mana of the two poisons. Then, both of the poison was produced from it that occupied the wolves’ bodies.

That was why when Ji-woo felt the Mana from the blood. He let the spurted blood from Black Wolf spray on his artifact suit and face.

Letting the Black Wolf assume the poison was successfully inflated Ji-woo’s body and would die because of it.

And…,

It didn’t work like what Black Wolf hoped.

Ji-woo shifted his gaze from the carcass and glanced down the hill.

—- —-

Hosh, Hosh–

“We kill all of them, but we can’t move now because of the fatigue and the poison already spread on us.”

Jun Ji-hoon can’t help feeling down for the final result they currently have.

The hunters succeed in killing all of the Silver Wolves. But their condition got worse after the fight.

The bad news, while the rest of the hunters and porters got poisoned by the Silver Wolf carcass. They have yet to defeat the owner of dungeons.

They feel weak, and some of them even lose consciousness already.

The hunters of Squad 7 possess a healer on the team. However, the healer was an E-rank hunter, and the healer looks likely to die by the Silver Wolf from earlier.

It was a hopeless situation for all of them.

No hope!

No hope!

Hwang Eun-bi leaned her back to the tree, looking at her Squad 7 in awful condition. Her eyes became dimmed.

At the door of death, Eun-bi murmured some words to ease her guilt.

“Imo, I’m sorry for bringing Ji-woo into the dungeons.”

Eun-bi closed her eyes, which signified that all of the hunters on the spot lost their consciousness.

Zip, Zip–

One by one, the rest of the people inside the dungeons were gone.

Even Ji-woo, who was on his way to meet the others, also disappeared.

Zap, Zap–

All of the survivors of the dungeons show up outside the Portal Gate. They were lying on the ground.

It was only leaving Ji-woo, which was still standing after being out of there.

“So, killing that Black Wolf is the key to leaving these dungeons?”

Ji-woo shifted his gaze to the Portal Gate at the back that slowly dissipated the Mana.

‘Look like this thing will fade away.’

Pong–

The tier-1 Portal Gate disappeared from Ji-woo’s vision. He then looked at the hunters and porters at the ground that got poisoned.

“Now, this is a tricky matter.

“I can’t call the Hunters Association since I don’t know their number.

“But if I tell the police, they will ask who is the one that reports this situation…”

Ji-woo’s worries exist because all the people who survived the dungeon were poisoned and lost consciousness.

How does Ji-woo explain that he was the only one that was fine and healthy? And he was the one that was beating the Black Wolf there?

Ji-woo then walked toward Eun-bi, who was lying unconscious. He looked at her carefully from head to toe, then stretched his hand over the wrist. He found a bracelet that seemed to get tied with her car keys.

Ji-woo picked up the key and opened the car door, searching around inside the car. He finally found Eun-bi’s phone.

Tut, Tut–

“Hello, the police station is here. Who are you?”

Ji-woo called the police and reported the situation and condition of the remaining survivors of the Portal Gate. Then, he closed the call after giving them the address, and he didn’t even bother to give his name as the informer.

‘Now, time to set the scenario.’

Ji-woo, then laying down beside Eun-bi. After putting everything back like how they were before.

Of course, other than acting unconsciously like the rest of them.

Ji-woo already prepared his bullsh*t. If he ever got asked why he was not infected by the poison, unlike the others.

‘I hope they pay me a lot. This job is dangerous…, really, really dangerous…, for others. But not for me.’

Ji-woo closed his eyes and smiled, thinking about the money while laying down, resting. He was waiting for the reinforcement to come.

From all of that mess that might have a perfect ending, Ji-woo seemed to forget something important that might have made him regret his deceiving plot.
