Chapter 182 Catching Ghosts

After walking around the crime scene, Kira gathered his thoughts and started thinking: the chandelier was still warm, which meant that people had been here for a while; although the chairs were overturned, based on their placement, it could be inferred that they were placed around the table, which meant that there were a lot of people;

The iron filings were dropped by Gajeel when he was eating. He is the only one here. The wine stains are still wet. Cana is the one who is wrong. The cigarette ash is also new. Wakaba and Makao are also involved. The clothes on the ground... Gray is also there. Hmm? This is... cat hair? There is only one in the guild...

These people are hiding here to hold a meeting mysteriously and haven't let me find them. There must be something fishy going on!

"Ghost hunting game?" Kira felt that he would not be bored tonight.

In the corner of the second floor, more than a dozen figures were huddled together on tiptoe, not daring to make a sound.

Felide wrote down the magic formula: The sound made here cannot be heard!

"Okay, everyone can talk now..."

Wakaba said, "Huh! Let's go quickly while Kana is dragging Kira. If he finds out that we are gambling without calling him, we will definitely be punished..."

"What are you afraid of!" Disper shouted, "Who is not Kira? The sword in my hand is very sharp! Besides, we have the support of the great president! Where is the... the president?"

Bigusro chuckled and said, "They ran away a long time ago. Oh, and Happy and Rocky ran away too."

Disper: “…”

Are alien creatures so amazing? They have wings, they are from the Star Spirit Gate, and they run so fast!

"These guys who abandoned their teammates! We'll settle the score with them tomorrow!"

"Since the president has left, why don't we leave too?"

Disper shook his head and said, "Why leave? Isn't it quite fun now? Let's play a game of catch the ghost!"

I have to say that isotopes are truly a wonderful existence. Perhaps this is the tacit understanding that Kira has, as the two can think of the same thing without prior communication.

"Catching ghosts? Interesting..."

"Oh!! Could this be the long-awaited... duel between the wizard and the swordsman?"

…

Tap, tap...

Kira walked slowly towards the second floor, one stair after another, keeping his ears open and his eyes on all directions, rubbing his hands together, ready to attack as soon as he saw anyone.

The corridor on the second floor was completely empty, without even a , and only a faint sliver of residual magic could be seen in the corners.

"The nature of this magic power... is it a ritual?" Kira closed his eyes and felt it. "Even Felide is involved. I'm even more curious!"

"Shadow!"

"rapidly!"

With a shout, several dark shadows rushed out from Kira and quickly rushed in several directions. A slight scream was heard in the darkness, but Kira caught this change, took a step forward, and the whole person turned into an afterimage and floated over.

He reached out into the darkness and said, "I got you!"

"Wow!" The figure was lifted up by Kira and shouted in surprise. It was Wakaba.

Kira grabbed his collar and asked, "Tell me, why are you carrying me behind my back?"

Just as Wakaba was about to beg for mercy, several attacks including ice, iron rods, beams of energy, and slashes came from different directions. Kira had no choice but to give up and dodge. When he stood firm again, Wakaba had fainted.

"Alright! I'll find all of you!" Kira shouted, "If I find you within an hour, I win. If anyone can evade my detection, you win!"

After that, a magical force was released: "Barrier!"

The magic barrier instantly enveloped the entire guild, blocking everyone from entering or leaving. Gray and the others in the darkness secretly groaned, "Now we can't leave even if we want to..."

At this moment , in the guild tavern, Kira reached into his arms and took out a lighting magic crystal, then threw it into the air with force.

bass!!

"Ah! My eyes!!" ×N

Swoosh! Clang! Bang!

The crystal flash bomb only illuminated for less than 3 seconds before it was hit by an aerial slash. The magic crystal fell to the ground with a clang, and fragments fell all over the ground.

"come out!"

“And you!”

“I found you!”

"You still want to run away from me?"

Even though Disper reacted quickly, several people who were not prepared were blinded by the flash. Three seconds was enough for Kira to determine their location.

He moved his body rapidly, rose and fell several times, and caught four or five people with a few snaps. Alzak, Bisca, Marcus, Ridasu and others were all caught. Kira threw them on the first floor, where they sat quietly and shivered.

After seeing this scene, the rest of the people knew that they could not just sit there and wait for death, so they immediately changed their positions or used magic to delay time.

"Ice creation, ice sculpture!"

Several gray-shaped ice sculptures sprang up from the ground and scattered in various corners of the guild, playing a good delaying role in the darkness; on the other side, Gajeel followed suit and made several crudely shaped iron men, but because of the different magic, he could only make and release one at a time and then move to another position; Felide used spells to set traps, and his magic could play the best delaying role; as for Bigusro and Disper, they could only rely on their own experience to conceal their bodies.

Ten minutes later, Kira caught Bigusro on the fourth floor...

Twenty minutes later, Kira caught Gray and Gajeel in the corner of the third floor...

In the last ten minutes, only Disper was left...

Again, few people can refuse the words "You win", Kira is like this, and Disper is even more so. This decisive battle between the two is bound to last until the end.

"Sure enough, in the end I am the only opponent!"

The captured people had gathered under the chandelier to drink and chat. Kira looked at the time and saw that there were still five minutes left. He sighed, "This Disper, his travels over the past few years have not been in vain. His concealment skills are so good..."

We can't delay any longer! At this point, we can only rely on cheating! Kira cast a detection spell, covering the entire guild with his perception, and instantly locked onto Disper's figure, who was on the first floor.

Kira looked over and said in a surprised tone: "It's so close, how come I didn't notice it?"

Disper has no magic power, but that doesn't mean he has no sense of magic. He noticed Kira's action and walked out first, looking at him with contempt, "You are such a shameless guy, you cheated when you couldn't find anyone!"

"I didn't say you can't use magic..."

The game was over, and the group sat back down at the table. Kira held the betting list in his hand, and read it line by line, shaking his head, "Too miserable! Too miserable! So, this is why you were in the guild so late?"

"That's right!" Disper said, "I, Habby, President Marklov, and Kana are the ones who opened the market, and they are the ones who placed the bets."

Kira's mouth twitched, and he looked at the others: "The judges are opening the game, aren't you afraid that they will cheat?"

Disper explained: "So you found Kana..."

"I should be the one doing this kind of thing!"

"No! With your personality, you will definitely fix the match if you know. Even if you are one of those people who are prohibited from betting, there is no guarantee that you won't deliberately cheat them out of their money for fun. This is why we don't want you to know!"

"That's too much! How dare you look at me like that?" Kira slammed the table angrily and asked the others, "Tell me, am I the kind of person who would fake a match?"

Wakaba and his companions chuckled, clinked the bottles together and drank the whole glass without saying anything.

Kira's face fell instantly, and he rolled up his sleeves and was about to hit someone, but after thinking for a while , he put down his fist: "In this case, I will play a fake game tomorrow and surrender..."

Disper's eyes lit up: Is there such a good thing? If this is the case, this round will be a huge profit!

The faces of several people changed drastically, and they all knelt down and begged for mercy. Some even hugged Kira's thighs and cried and shouted.

"I'm sorry! We were wrong just now! Really wrong!"

"Be a human being!"

"Please don't do this! Please!!"

"Leave us some room, Kira!"

"I bet all my money on you to win the championship, you can't betray my trust!"

"Fixing a match is a shameful act! You are such a noble person, you would never do that, right?"

Kira lowered his head, an inexplicable smile on his face: "Oh? I am noble?"

"Too noble!"

"Haha... I still prefer your rebellious attitude just now..."

Everyone: “…”
