The current situation of Hunting Team 4 in <Evil Hunter> was ambiguous.

The expression is a bit strange, but it’s literal.

Among the teams that fell into the <Maze Touched by Death>, Team 4 was almost the only one where team members were dispersed by their classes.

Rear members like mage and archer classes were grouped together, while front-line members like warrior and assassin classes were in another group.

It was the worst situation where necessary role groups were separated.

But once they entered, nothing special happened.

The undead they had seen to the point of nausea didn’t appear, and there weren’t even common magic traps.

Whether it was good luck or bad...

They found themselves in a somewhat ambiguous situation.

“Until we’re caught by magic detection, let’s move as slowly as possible. Everyone, please be patient even if it’s frustrating.”

But Team Leader Kim A-reum couldn’t just stand by and watch this.

After all, the current situation was an unexpected variable and crisis for the <Evil Hunter> clan.

To overcome this, they needed to focus on escaping the trap and reuniting with the clan.

“Team Leader. Should I ride Haten and go around once?”

At that moment, team member Moon Ga-eun spoke up.

She’s an archer class but also a Multi-Holder handling taming classes, showing the image of a mounted archer riding a Lycan in battle.

The mobility of a wolf and the search ability of an archer class.

As shown in the previous battle, it was a synergy that demonstrated considerable power.

But Kim A-reum shook her head heavily.

“No. It’s too dangerous.”

Coldly, it was indeed too risky.

Moon Ga-eun’s ability is certainly a great help in battle, but that’s only when the situation supports it well.

In the current state where there are no warrior class members at all, if she moves alone on Haten, she could suddenly become a single target for emerging enemies.

“Let’s keep moving at this pace...”

Just as she was about to give that order.

Kim A-reum suddenly stopped in her tracks.

Her senses, constantly activating search-type runes as she moved, detected signs of a magic trap ahead.

She raised her hand to stop the team members, then carefully placed her hand on the ground.

And slowly feeling the flow of magic.

“...!”

Kim A-reum’ eyes widened.

There it was.

There was a magic trap containing powerful magic nearby.

It was too far to be detected initially, but it was approaching Hunting Team 4 at a fierce speed.

The attribute was earth, and the type was attack magic.

And the direction was...

“Holder Kang Juyeon! Dodge!”

The right diagonal of the team.

Where temporary clan member Kang Juyeon was standing.

Goo-woo-woo-.

Kwaga-ga-ga-!!

A sharply carved spear of earth lunges at her relentlessly.

Kang Juyeon’s expression was also tinged with surprise as she faced the earth-attribute magic head-on.

Originally, this level of attack would be too easy for Kang Juyeon to break.

For an A-grade Holder like her, it’s a light attack, and her main rune [Eternal Flame of Protection] itself is specialized in defense.

However, just like Moon Ga-eun’s suggestion was rejected earlier, everything changes depending on the situation.

A magic trap that seemed to have been prepared for quite some time.

And magic flying in without time to defend.

Using [Guardian’s Flame] would easily block it, but in a situation where there’s no time to draw up magic, she was helpless.

Kwa, kwaga-gat-!!

As the earth spear approached within reach, and just as Kang Juyeon was trying to dodge it somehow with her physical abilities.

“Ultimate Frost!”

Jjeo-jeo-jeok-.

The earth spear freezes instantly.

Prepared magic rises simultaneously from the air and ground, and intense cold clashes with the enemy’s attack.

[Ultimate Frost] of [Frozen Battlefield].

It was Kim Chae-eun’s signature attack magic.

When dealing with attack magic, deploying defensive magic is much more efficient in terms of magic consumption, but that doesn’t mean attack magic can’t be used to block.

Kim Chae-eun used the special effect of the [Ice Queen’s Crown] item to use a pre-embedded skill to collide with the magic.

“Juyeon, are you okay?!”

A special unit of skeletons composed of archer and mage classes.

But in that aspect...

The members of Hunting Team 4 were more like the Avengers.

Reaching the finish line was as easy as eating cold porridge.

As plowed through the floundering undead without hesitation, and the distance from the necromancer, which had widened due to [Death Revival], quickly closed again.

“You, you monster... What the hell are you?!”

The necromancer shouted with an incredulous face.

But hearing those words made me sneer.

“Kid, stop pretending. You must have heard everything from your esteemed Vice-Master of the school.”

They had known our identity since <Abandoned Laboratory>, and this bastard even set up a trap to toy with me.

And now he’s asking what we are.

It wasn’t even a funny lie.

“I, I never heard about summons like this...!!”

Of course you didn’t.

Only Hwang Seong-yeon had seen As in action.

Well, Hwang Seong-yeon could have spilled all my information to the Ludenark school... But judging by the opponent’s reaction, that doesn’t seem to be the case.

“You talk too much. Just die already.”

Although there are unusual cases like me, generally, summoners who control contractors have low inherent stats.

In a situation where the undead can’t provide protection...

The opponent was completely defenseless.

It was the perfect opportunity to deliver the finishing blow.

‘Divine Slash...!!’

I strike with a direct hit using the attack skill I had been saving.

It’s an inherent skill of [Sword of Penitent] that I’ve been using frequently, but with the item’s evolution and my greatly increased divine stats, its power has skyrocketed incomparably to before.

The weakened necromancer had no chance of blocking it.

“Damn it!! Count Ripley! I’ll offer you my heart! Right now...!!”

But then came the opponent’s incomprehensible cry.

‘He still has something left...?’

I was momentarily taken aback.

[Death Revival] alone was already a powerful ultimate skill that consumed massive amounts of magical power, yet he was about to pull something else?

I immediately prepared to use the [Lightning of Judgment] skill in case of an emergency.

But.

“Wh-what! This isn’t what we agreed on!! You said if I offered my heart... Ugh, aaaaargh!!”

There was no need.

The necromancer kept muttering to himself, then screamed in agony as he took [Divine Slash] head-on.

Splash-.

And his body was swept away by the waves.

His life was extinguished just like that.

“...What was that?”

The necromancer clearly tried to pull some trick but failed.

I was perplexed by this strange sight, but I had dealt with the biggest obstacle nonetheless.

With him defeated, all those summoned undead should have been unsummoned too, and the blocked maze doors should open anew.

Whoosh....

After all the water from [New Wave] dispersed and disappeared.

I dismissed As’ summon and set foot on the ground.

It was time to move and find my clan members again.

“First, the exit... Huh?”

But then.

In a place where there was clearly no presence or magical energy...

A young girl was standing there.

Long green hair and beautiful features.

And somehow.

She looked like her canine teeth were protruding slightly.

This peculiar-looking girl smiled and said, “You’re interesting. Want to make a contract with me?”
