Chapter 189: A Trap For You Alone

No matter how beautiful and majestic an animal is to the eye of the bolder it’ll soon begin to decay. A living being who’s consumed by their regret would go far to have sinned to right what they have wronged. A fox that was known to be full of greed and amass a ton of fortune that he stole from the world would grieve? Would he be forgiven for his sin? Was the fox blinded by such things and wasn’t able to see what was truly worth being called a treasure?

[Finally, we’re just one step ahead of our goal, are you sure it’s a great idea to order that apothecary to retreat? I don’t know what you’re trying to do, you do know that if you fail it might cost you your life? I don’t want anything to happen to you after I saw that we’re very synergistic in our manifested form]

’He’s right... If I keep this up then Morris might suffer from my choices, but I can’t let go of this intuition of mine. My gut feeling hasn’t failed me once in my life, however, I’m reconsidering that it’s better to doubt this feeling. Why do I feel so pressured? It’s just a mask that originated from the guardians and yet why do I feel so uneasy all of a sudden?’

Jin Kurenai a player clad in a vibrant aura has managed to come face-to-face with the lair of the fox. Behind that door was the person he called Kitsune a mysterious player that bears the mask of a fox. He didn’t want any kind of distractions which is why he sent his only ally back to the rest of his crew

[Why are you hesitating... Perhaps are you scared???]

"Scared...? That word doesn’t belong in my dictionary, I’m a player that possesses two balls made of pure steel. We’re talking about a player that possesses some forbidden arts, I don’t want to protect someone if they can’t fight. Even though he got a lot stronger, his profession isn’t suited for combat purposes, I don’t want to be weighed in the middle of a fight," Jin replied to the question of his deity whilst he opened the door leading up to his present matter

He came to wander around the room filled with unknown symbols and a bunch of other scriptures. One of them was a letter that contains a person’s horrible handwriting, but he was able to understand what was written. His experience with Morris’s handwriting was comparable to a hieroglyphic, compared to that the letter in his hands was decent

’It’s all my fault, It’s all my fault, It’s all my fault, It’s all my fault, It’s all my fault, It’s all my fault!!! The reason why im sentenced to this very hell was that I betrayed the expectations of the ones that trusted me the most!!! I want to die~ No!!? If I atone for my sins will I be forgiven!? I know of the things that’ll occur in this world, maybe, just maybe I’ll be forgiven, even if I don’t it’s better than living in sorrow~’

[Jin, watch out!!!]

Before he could finish reading the letter in his mind, he was warned by his contracted deity of an attack that targeted his back. He dodges the attack that came in the form of a shadow filled with a demonic aura. Soon after a player bearing the mask of a fox came from the area engulfed in darkness

[Masked player: Fox (Kitsune)

Standing: Leader of the infamous guardians

Race: Human/Outsider

Traits: Mysterious, Greedy, Evil,

Class: All-rounder

Weaponry: Can use multiple sets of weaponry

Additional information: A masked player shrouded in mystery, first sighting was the time he stole the gluttony core. He was said to possess multiple sets of weaponry in his arsenal. Some clues made Jin wonder if his class was related to a spiritual understanding. He’s greatest prediction was that he had the "Shaman" class, but his ability says otherwise]

"Well, well, well if it isn’t the Raging Oni! What brings you to my lair? Don’t tell me you’re still mad about the core, I have my reasons for stealing that item. Tell you what, you can leave right here and now, since I possess the score I don’t require any more human sacrifices. I suggest that you heed my word~ It seems that you’re not one to be persuaded," Kitsune blocks the chunk of metal he threw, whilst it exploded near his vicinity

Moments later it was confirmed that he was unaffected by his attack when he calls upon a shield. He was able to block the explosion from ever reaching the surface of his body, Jin clicks his tongue for his failed attempt. He knew that it wasn’t that easy for a player like Kitsune to be easily defeated. This was the same player who was said to be untraceable yet this player appeared in his back

"It seems that you’re unable to learn of the weight of my plans, I don’t judge you for showing any hostility. Even if I said it’s for the greater good of the world, im only saying it so that the weight of my sins will lessen. I’m not asking for you to decipher my motive, I request that you leave before I ran out of patie~"

"I’ve heard that your motto was "Save the world blah, blah" but I didn’t think you’re an idiot!! I’m not going to leave here without the core, whilst im at it, it wouldn’t hurt to beat the shit out of you. Now eat my hammer!! I’m tired of your villain monologue bullshit!!" Kitsune blocked his straightforward attempts of ending his life with the use of his sword which deflected Jin’s hammer

[System: The player has chosen to activate one of the skills within his weapon called [Weight manipulation]: By applying mana the player can change the overall weight of the hammer. It can either become a weapon without any kind of weight or a weapon that triples its original weight]

He reacted by using his shield and blocking the weight of Jin’s hammer, though it was useless to do so. He increases its weight and down goes his shield which Kitsune discarded as his means of escaping. It was clear that he wouldn’t be able to persuade his foe so he reacted accordingly to his dilemma

[System: The player ??? Has activated the skill called [Copycat]: Any kind of recorded technique will be utilized as if they learned it by heart. The mastery and recording will depend on whether or not the technique is normal, hard, advanced, or maybe unique. The only thing that this skill can’t copy is a technique that originates from a player and not the system]

"You’ll regret your decisions, recorded technique!! I call upon the recorded technique Advance sword arts!! Become a blade that would pierce through the defenses of my foe, I call upon your power!! Use my mana, change the form of my blade and make it a new, Sword ki!!" Kitsune enhances the power of his sword and was able to block Jin’s masterful handling of his hammer

Their attacks were strong enough to pressure their surroundings, and the sheer impact was said to be extraordinary. Wits vs brute strength, hammer against sword, but it wasn’t a fight where the two were said to be equal. In their last encounter, Jin was depleted of every ounce of stamina that dwells in his body. This has proven to be the unavoidable truth, which Kitsune couldn’t even face his attacks with his current technique

[What are you doing!!? Use your full power and kill that bastard!!? Hold on... There’s something wrong with your current location]

Why? Why was he holding back? He wasn’t a person that wouldn’t blink even if he killed a player due to his knowledge of the world. But at this moment he couldn’t exert the fullest extent of his strength. Even if he was curious about the identity behind that mask, he wasn’t a fool to risk his life

"Kehahahahahahahahaha!! So you’ve noticed the real reason why you’re truly here? It was a little fishy when the well-known player such as Spell thief disappeared without a single trace. I thought I was wrong with my guess that the Radiant Knight is the one and only thief. But seeing that you’re here, Raging Oni of Enigma, I can truly believe that I was right and you’ve fallen into my trap," He was shocked after this masked player was able to uncover their schemes

When he thought of informing Morris about his newly acquired information, his communicator was jammed. He didn’t detect any sort of material that disturb the flow of mana in their area, he was sure of it until a spell circle appeared. A magical circle filled to the brim with the smell of blood that came from a variety of different races with a hint of mana

[System: The player is currently within the reach of the circle spell called [Seal of hell]: Once the required sacrifices have been met, a player can cast a seal on a certain area. In that area, no one will be allowed the use of teleportation, wormhole, summoning, etc. Anything that wants to escape will stay and those who want to enter will be repelled and enemies will be weakened. This spell circle was said to imitate the seal of hell, a seal which locks hell to its very own space and the origin of hell]

"Raging Oni, I’ve told you before, I had some patients, I didn’t want to shed any more blood but you asked for my hand. My only target was to bring about the death of Spell thief, that player has changed the course of the future. If I kept him alive any longer than that, he’ll bring about the end of the worl~ ooooof!!" Kitsune received a punch to the abdomen as soon as Jin found an opening in his stance

[So that’s the reason why? You got trapped inside a demonic spell circle... In any case, you got your stats lessened by 25%]

"Damn... That’s a 75% punch and your kneeling on the ground? Are you seriously Kitsune? Stand up... My deity told me that you’ll have a way to escape this circle!! Even if you don’t say anything about it, I know some ways to make you talk~ Arrrgh!!" He received a punch in his chin that knocks him up into the air where he was given a kick to his head

He manages to block Kitsune’s mana-imbued kick which lessens the force of its impact and made it possible to land flawlessly on the ground

’Pweeeh!! Fuck, I didn’t think he’ll have a powerful force inside that punch, I think I lose a tooth,’
