But if the enemy was that horrible kid who killed his other mates, then anything was possible.
That demon, that abomination, just thinking about Mark gave him chills to the bones.
He still remembers how Mark took the gun out of Roman's gun holder, as if he had done such a thing thousands of times. It was so effortless, and after that the way he killed everyone, it made everyone disbelief.
There was only death wherever his bullets passed.
Now, he was 100% sure that this person was Mark, even if he wasn't, he had to die.
It was either him or others in this world. There existed no other option. He simply couldn't take risk.
That was the reason instead of going back to join the captain, he chose to hunt alone.
He was good at hunting and had already hunted eight humans, and this was going to be his ninth one.
Knowing that the arrow came from such a high height, his prey was hidden inside the tree.
So all he did was to come out of his hiding, remaining in stealth, he let loose.
BANG! BANG!! BANG!!! BANG!!!! BANG!!!!!
BANG! BANG!! BANG!!! BANG!!!! BANG!!!!!
Like a loose canon, he fired everywhere, not caring where the prey was. He had enough bullets. He had enough magazines in his belt to waste one magazine to find this horrible prey.
While Mark was shocked out of his mind, as he jumped from one branch to another to hide behind the tree.
As next the bullets started hitting the very tree he was hiding at, riddling it from top to bottom.
Soon all the fifty bullets were done firing as finally the silence descended, and the moment that happened, Mark jumped.
From tree top he jumped not caring that the distance of more than ten meter was between him and the ground.
Not caring that his leg was wounded, already ruptured back from all the insane movements he had done previously to save himself.
He simply jumped and the moment his feet fall to the ground, he ran towards his target.
Ignoring the shock, ignoring the pain, he was ruthless, as he rolled, put the arrow on the bow string, rolled the string sideways, and let the arrow loose.
John heard the woosh, the same terrible woosh he had heard before, but this time he was hidden behind the tree facing front.
His eyes couldn't see the enemy, that means the enemy couldn't see him too, when suddenly he saw an arrow going towards opposite location of his, when suddenly midway it curved.
Not understanding what just happened, shocked John looked at the arrow which was now flying towards him, making him curse and jump to protect himself, but the moment he jumped, he found a shadow towering him.
Puchi!
Kwahkkkk….
Blood splattered….
In midair Mark punctured John's left lung, as next he pulled his knife out and without giving any chance to the person he couldn't see, he started slashing him everywhere.
Stomach, chest, neck, face, until Mark heard the notification, he did not stop and kept slashing the invisible figure.
[Killer gift activated, permanently stealing 0.1 Intelligence stat.]
Gasping for air, Mark stopped and sat beside the dead body, as slowly he saw the invisible person becoming visible.
He recognized this person. John something was it? He was one of the police officers who took him to the District Court for the hearing, that means he was correct, here in this forest there were other police officers too, and they would be all coming to look for him, to kill him.
Next Mark took the gun out of the John's hand and searched his body to find anything else.
On his belt he found four more magazines which made him sigh in relief as the moment he put all that in his space, John's body started burning, and knowing where he was going next after turning into meat, Mark simply turned around and started walking back towards the lake.
As the pain which had disappeared while his adrenaline was high during hunt started to came back.
It was horrendous, his injuries were back to being open. His bleeding which had stopped had again continued.
While the itching just made him want to rub all of his wounds like crazy. This was madness, complete madness.
But somehow Mark controlled himself and reached his destination, as he again started picking up the stones.
He had already finished close to 300 stones which he had previously picked and killed close to sixty fishes since he started, making his agility and vitality stat crazily high, as he made his status panel reappeared to see how many stats he still needed to reach twenty points in each of them.

Looking at the stats, Mark was somewhat shocked and happy. His agility was only 0.9 points behind from reaching complete 20 point stats.
Why 20 you asked? Because he had this feeling as the more stat he got that the moment he would reach 20 points in any of the stat, something amazing would happen.
He had no idea what, but he just wanted to complete this mission of his and find out.
As next he opened the map to look at the other red dots which were coming towards him.
From 12 the dots had decreased to 9. He killed one while the other two died in the hands of the monsters.
But what made him startle was the three circles which had now gotten close, so close that they were intervened with each other.
He had no idea whether they were fighting or doing what, as soon he saw them moving towards the lake, further away from where he was though.
But seeing this only made Mark giddy with delight as he realized what was coming for these three morons.
He alone couldn't be the only victim of this terrible lake, others needed to taste its dreadfulness too.
Enjoying watching the map, Mark was done collecting enough stones as he made his way even further away from the three dots and chose another location to hunt the fishes.
