My Last Hunt

Level Four (26)

He is a snatcher: 

Accuser is being accused or something else;

"I was tricked by this snatcher and he snatched my booklet now he wanted to kill me." the hunter pleaded. 

There was a difference between their level experience but there were many examples where experienced chasers could easily win against opponent despite having lower experience points for the same level. It was because of their strong grit and field experience. 

The chasers who were usually pampered in the teams were considered weak even if they had more experience points of the same level. Qiao was shocked to hear this. This chaser had planned such a sneaky plan to frame him. 

Actually, the hunter had decided it beforehand. He did not want to snatch the booklet directly instead wanted this chaser to hand it over without making fuzz. He had seen his previous team leader doing the same thing with others. That hunter snatched it from someone else and the team leader tricked him and got the booklet in the end. 

But for Qiao it was different. 

"Oh so that's what happened. These petty problems of the low level chasers are such a headache, send them to the organizers, they would solve and punish him." the senior gestured his men and they brought both the chasers away. 

The organizers saw the senior team and asked them to sit. They let the chasers to stand at the side, listening to their problem right now was a secondary matter, first they need to listen to the report from the dead lake. 

"The weather has intensified at the place. It must have created some trouble for you all." the organizer asked the team. 

"It is indeed troublesome, but the real problem has been spotted already. We have found some clues about the presence of the rumoured water beast. Though we were unable to confirm further because of the weather but it is clear that it is hiding around the dead lake. We don't know if it has access to the actual part of the lake. If it really can access that lake then how it does is also not clear. These questions can only be addressed if the Silver Class further search in the open lake." the head of the team fluently told his report about this specific mission. 

"Alright, you all can go and rest because the evening guard would be tough from now on." one of the organizers nodded and let them leave first. Then one of the organizers turned to look at the both chaser. "You both were fighting at the outside of the encampment, do you not know the rules. None of the chasers are allowed to create such petty problems when we have already bigger ones to at." the organizer grimly spoke. 

He was looking at the both while the hunter spoke first. "Senior this chaser provoked me for a duel and then snatched my booklet." the hunter sheepishly pointed toward Qiao. 

"If you don't believe then ask him whether he has a booklet or not." he added. 

The organizer pitied at the present appearance of this hunter and looked at Qiao, "Do you have the booklet?" Qiao heaved a deep breath, 

"I indeed have a booklet but it does not belong to this hunter." saying this Qiao brought out the booklet and the hunter was drooling at the real copy of the rare script. 

The hunter hurriedly leapt to grab it from Qiao but Qiao immediately kept it inside the sleeve. 

"Yes, this booklet, the chaser snatched it from me." he pleaded to the organizer. 

"No it is mine, this chaser tricked me to fight a duel and whoever won would be eligible to keep the booklet but I got defeated." the hunter added fuel to fire. He knew that fighting duels in the Snow Island was prohibited by the organizers, they don't want the teams to indulge in petty matters and lost the real mark of level up an become stronger. 

"Indeed, fighting duels is prohibited, do you know this rule or not?" the organizer asked the young boy. 

"I did not know about this rule and in actuality I was not the one who challenged to for duel." Qiao was no more furious, he knew now that he was tricked by this wicked hunter and there was no use to show his anger. 

He was at fault from the beginning, when he felt something amiss, he should have let it go but he kept blindly listening to his bullshit and thinking that he was here for duel. Fu*k duel, it was just an excuse of this hunter. But what could he do now. 

"The booklet belongs to me and I am the owner, not this tricky fella. He is just trying to implicate me." Qiao spoke to clear the allegation. The organizers looked at the hunter and then the calm young man. They were unable to decide for a punishment immediately because the tranquillity of the young man was questionable. 

They had experiences about such matters before and most of the times those who were speaking lies or wanted to create trouble for the other would use every means of pleading to prove that they were innocent. But if this guy was the snatcher then why he was serene and calm? 

He looked at the other and shook his head. 

"Can you prove that this booklet belongs to you?" the organizer put a final question before deciding anything. If the script was bought from some real shop then the young boy must have a certificate of purchase. 

All the legal bookstores were certified with the Middletown or the senior merchandise of the specific continent. 

The hunter was surprised at the turn of the events. He had never thought about this because he himself had never bought any script; he only saw teams snatching from others. Now he was thinking whether this young man has such certificate or he was also a snatcher just like him.
