Chapter 312: 312. Revenge of the ages shall begin

Orion looked at him deeply, then focused his attention on the killer.

"Who sent you to kill us?" he asked.

"Dead people don’t need to know," the killer replied, his altered voice sounding strange, before vanishing from his position to attack.

"Let’s attack together," Orion suggested, activating the Curse of Stormcaller to increase his speed.

Mark smiled, purple lightning flashing around him as he disappeared.

The three of them collided with a deafening boom, the ground beneath them cracking and shattering as the shockwave tore through the air. Dust swirled, and for a brief moment, everything seemed chaotic.

But as the dust cleared, the outcome became all too obvious.

The killer stood there, calm and composed, effortlessly holding Orion’s sword in one hand and Mark’s lightning-charged fist in the other. His bare hands gripped both as if they were weightless, as if their combined power meant nothing to him.

Orion’s heart raced, disbelief flashing in his eyes. He could feel the tension in his sword, but the killer’s grip didn’t falter. Mark’s expression mirrored Orion’s shock—his lightning-infused strike, which should’ve delivered a devastating blow, was being casually contained, the crackling energy dissipating like it was nothing more than a faint spark.

The two exchanged a brief glance, both realizing the same thing. This wasn’t just someone fast. This killer had strength far beyond anything they’d expected, and they were now face to face with an opponent that neither speed nor raw power could easily defeat.

"Is that all you’ve got?"

The killer sneered before kicking Mark in the stomach, sending him flying. Seeing this, Orion quickly formed a condensed ball of wind in his left hand—the same move he had used to defeat Reilly—and thrust it towards the killer.

But before the wind sphere could reach him, the killer flung Orion into the air. Orion used the wind to slow his fall and landed beside Mark.

"There’s something wrong with this man," Mark said solemnly.

"What’s wrong?" Orion asked, confused.

"I don’t know." Mark shook his head. "I just have a feeling this is going to be a tough battle."

Orion turned to the killer. "Well, what can we expect from a 2nd-level Platinum rank expert?"

"None of you will survive," the killer suddenly said.

"All the geniuses here will die. Tomorrow’s headline will read something like: ’Hunter Association assassinates geniuses after the party.’ Doesn’t that sound like shocking news?"

The killer spread his arms. "Imagine the chaos that would follow once this reaches the federation. The organization they trusted most turned out to be their biggest traitor. How will people react? Hahaha."

Orion frowned. From the killer’s words, he understood that this wasn’t about personal grudges—it was about sending a message to the world, a false statement to tarnish the Hunter Association’s reputation. At least, that’s what Orion believed.

If that happened, chaos would surely ensue. While Orion wouldn’t mind seeing the world burn after what happened three months ago, the killer had targeted the wrong group.

"You’re too full of yourself," Orion said, shaking his head, though he didn’t notice the solemn expression on Mark’s face.

"You’ll understand soon enough," The killer sneered, then vanished once more in a blur of motion.

Orion barely had time to react, preparing to use his wind powers, when the killer reappeared directly in front of him. The fist that followed was so quick it seemed like teleportation. There was no warning, no chance for Orion—or Ray—to defend himself. The killer’s speed was overwhelming.

Bang!

The punch struck Orion’s face with a force that sent him flying. His body skidded just above the ground, soaring past the battlefield where Erza, Henry, and Victor were strategizing against the distant killer.

He crashed into the villa’s boundary wall with a thunderous impact, the wall crumbling under the force.

Mark’s eyes widened as he stared at the killer. In that moment, he realized why he had felt uneasy.

"Your strength... it’s at the 9th level of Platinum rank!" Mark said in shock.

"You’re next," the killer smirked before vanishing again.

Mark flashed back with his lightning, intending to counterattack, but the killer was faster. He appeared in front of Mark like a blur and kicked him before Mark could even strike.

"Damn it!" Mark cursed, crossing his arms in front of his chest at the last moment. It was all he could do. Even with his lightning, his speed couldn’t match the killer’s.

Bang!

Like Orion, Mark was blasted away, flying toward the villa. He crashed through several trees before coming to a stop.

An eerie silence fell over the battlefield. Erza, Henry, Victor, and the others were shocked to their core, feeling the oppressive aura emanating from the killer. A look of despair clouded the faces of Rudy, Roman, Shuna, Hayley, and the others.

The killer’s aura was palpable, and everyone understood that he was far beyond their ability to handle. It was a fight out of their league. Only the senior members of the guilds could hope to do anything.

There was a clear distinction between Gold rank and Platinum rank. Even if some geniuses could defy that gap, it was only limited to early-stage Platinum ranks—1st, 2nd, or 3rd levels.

Fighting a 9th-level Platinum rank expert was nothing short of suicide, and now the members of the Starfire Guild, Lords Guild, and Black Reaper Guild found themselves in that dire situation.

"I already told you—no one will leave here alive. All of you will die, and that will mark the beginning of something monumental in this world."

The killer began walking slowly toward the rest of the group.

"Rejoice, for your sacrifice will ignite something so grand it might alter the course of this world."

He continued uttering his twisted words as he approached.

"And with that, the revenge of the ages shall begin."
