Chapter 359 CH 344: THAT CRAZY BITCH?



[Hunter Association]

After ending the communication with Tsubasa Hanekawa, Mark slumped in his chair with a complicated expression on his face.

While Mark was not as focused on justice as he was as a child, the Hanekawa family was one of the places that still made him feel leery even though they were quite efficient when it came to working as hunters.

For him, they were more of a religious cult than anything else and as such were very dangerous.

Tsubasa Hanekawa, or rather —The Ghost Spider was not an exception to this rule.

Her initial nickname had been Black Widow, a testament to how vicious she was when going on missions.

Even more so when the target of the mission was a man.

Just remembering the mission report about what those men had to go through made him shiver and clamps his legs

It wasn't someone he would wish even to his worst enemies.

And now, this renowned man-hater wanted to go on missions with Adam?

One didn't need to be some genius to understand that something fishy was going and in fact, Mark was already connecting the dots.

'This isn't something I can deal with.'

It was way above his pay grade.

Taking out his phone, he started calling the one who could deal with the problem.

High in the sky, the moon was shining and bathing the world with its silver light.

The time for the sun to rise was slowly approaching but even now, in the darkness, people were going on with their lives.

One such person was someone who had more authority than many in this world but who was content to stay in her place and simply work on her experiment.

[Medusa's Laboratory]

In the depths of her laboratory in the isolated land that solely belongs to the eccentric and ancient Gorgon, Medusa, as always, was observing a set of Data that she had freshly gathered from one among her innumerable experiments.

The only difference right now was that, unlike her normal self, she was simply looking at the data that was being scrolled by her hands on the screen in an absentminded manner, as though completely out of it.

Her eyes were looking at them, yes, but her mind was completely elsewhere.

She was remembering that day. The day When the cursed life she thought would never end was ironically finished in the swiftest and most humiliating way possible.

The day when she died.

The day when she revived.

The day when her Fate changed for the third time.

A new lease on life, a new beginning, and an imperfect immortality that was bestowed on her by that 'man'.

"Hum? What is the matter then?"

The operation in France was very important and since it would be Adam's first mission, having an experienced Gold ranked Hunter on his team would be very helpful for him.

Furthermore, there was no way a Gold-ranked Hunter could overpower Adam without having something like a Divine Weapon at hand.

If they had a Divine Weapon then they wouldn't have been Gold ranked, after all. They would've already risen to the rank of an Executor.

It would be a good subordinate and a good test for Adam. So she didn't see what the problem here was.

[Well. It's the Ghost Spider.]

"Ghost Spider?"

Medusa tilted her head for an instant in confusion. The way Mark said it, it seemed like she was supposed to know who the hunter was.

She did not care about Gold-level Hunters as they were just not on her radar at all. Even Executors could barely interest her. There was no way she would keep the moniker of a Gold rank Hunter in her mind.

But the following words allowed Medusa to immediately remember the importance of this call and the identity of the person that was trying to add herself to Adam't team.

[The Heiress of the Hanekawa Family.]

"Heh. You mean that crazy bitch?"

[Cough! Cough!]

It was such a straightforward answer that even Mark was left speechless.

This showed how deep an impact Tsubasa had left on Medusa.

[Ahem~ Miss...]

Mark was visibly flustered by the way Medusa described Tsubasa and couldn't help but add in a small voice...

[You were the one who vetted her and said she was perfect as a hunter.]

"So?"

Mark could say nothing more.

Somehow, he had the impression that even Piaget Freud was not completely alright in the end.

Though of course, there was no way he would dare to say this.

The illustrations are set to be visible to the Public so you can see them without subscribing. Some readers asked me about GoC on Patreon but sadly, GoC is an exclusively contracted book, unlike SHK which is non-exclu which allows me to put SHK on Patreon.

Anyways this is the last chapter of this month and the start of a new arc. I hope you liked the first arc of Vol 7. Started a little slow but it's showing more about Adam.

Thank you for supporting me and for liking my story. The number of Priv readers diminished after I took away the 99% off and it's understandable. What is surprising is that the fall was lower than I anticipated so I am truly happy. The start wasn't easy but we have come far together. I hope to see you again next month. Which is ironically in a few hours. Goodbye, everyone. See you soon.)New n0vel chapters are published on
