"Looks like we’re almost out of ti, so let’s end today’s class here and pick up where we left off tomorrow. Have a good afternoon, everyone," Remarked Ellyse, as she glanced at the ti before wrapping up the session.
Sweet, there’s still ten minutes left, I can use that ti to chill before today’s Practical Training session.
"Woah, check this out."
"Is that for real? Yikes, scary."
Hm? I glanced back curiously as the students in the row behind caught my attention, peering at sothing displayed on one of their I-Watches.
"Sorry to interrupt, has sothing happened?" I asked them.
"Yeah, I’ll say. Have a look," Replied one of them, before showing his display.
Alright, let’s see here...oh, wow.
It was a news article, reporting about a party of Freelance Hunters. They had recently been discovered to have been murdering other Hunters in the Dungeon raids they took on.
According to the investigation, it was determined that they did this for their own sick, twisted amusent. They covered their tracks by feeding the remains of their victims to the Monsters, thereby leaving no evidence of their cris.
Death is a fairly commonplace occurrence for Hunters, so initially, they got away with it.
But eventually, the Hunters Union noticed that this party was having an unusually high number of casualties, especially since their regular mbers always survived while other Freelancers they’d recruit would be the only victims.
Their cris were confird after the Union detained one of their mbers and interrogated him, but it seems the others caught on to the fact that they were under investigation, and have gone into hiding.
What amateurs...if they really wanted to get away with this, they should’ve had a few raids in between their kills where they made sure no one died. That way, they’d have Hunters to vouch for them.
I an, I don’t condone what they did, of course, I’m just saying.
Hm? Oh, good question.
Considering my past life, I have absolutely no sympathy for these kinds of people, they deserve to suffer.
So, to answer your question, if I were to co across these people, then yes, I absolutely would kill them...well, provided that there are no witnesses around.
According to the article, they’re all Q-Ranked, and there’s five of them, I probably won’t gain much from using my Gluttony Skills on them, but it’s bound to be non-zero, at least.
Of course, the chances of randomly running into them is pretty slim, it’s probably not the best idea to go wandering through shady areas to search for them or whatever.
Hm, but maybe I can spam Appraisal whenever I’m outside, they’ll probably wear disguises or at least sothing like a cap or hood, to avoid being recognized.
But disguises an nothing to my Appraisal Skill, I’ll have to rember their nas, there is a possibility that I might run into them.
They can’t hide out forever, after all, they’ll need to go out to get food and other supplies. Wait, would they be able to pay for stuff? I’d imagine that their accounts are being monitored, right?
If I rember right, you ntioned that public areas are heavily surveiled, right?
True, they wouldn’t even necessarily need to cover their faces, simply keeping their gazes low and avoiding facing the caras directly could be enough to avoid detection.
And considering that most public areas have security caras, there’s got to be an insane amount of footage recorded, it’d be pretty much impossible to manually go through all that.
Wait, why are we discussing this again? I an, it’s fascinating and all, but not really relevant to since I have no intention of committing any cris.
Oh, right.
Yeah, I suppose I do.
