Quest For Three Stones (25)

Zunal; 

A stone is behind this problem; how strange? 

Now both were free to walk around with no fear to loss each other; they were bounded with the material that the delirium cannot walk to them and break it. Qiao was proficient with the left hand battle so it won't bother him. They were like those who lost in a valley and cannot face to misplace each other. If any other hunter happened to see them then he would definitely have ridiculed this kind of collaboration. It was unheard until now but not anymore. 

"There is another hunter king who is wandering in this phantasm; I wonder where he could be at this moment? Oh he must have escaped if considered his nature." The hunter king slightly thumped his forehead. All three hunter kings have their own ways and unique capabilities to emission as soon as they get the vibes about the stronger opponent. And there was no doubt that currently the opponent was stronger. They do not any digger with them in the team else he might be able to help to point out the rough direction where the stone was hidden. For now he was alone and has to decide whether to struggle hard and leave this phantasm or if he could find a chance then destroy the stone. 

"You were in a team and ended up in this place?" Qiao asked curiously. "Haha, we intentionally ended up in this place because the Hightown sent us to investigate the place and if possible then solve the issue. We were originally a team of three hunter kings and separated in this delirium." The hunter king scratched his head and spoke the truth. He knew that it was embarrassing to express how a team of three hunter kings were helpless. 

Qiao must have jumped with the excitement to hear this but he cannot show how immature he would look by doing so. He heard about the hunter kings and how powerful they were; also they were known from their haughty nature and arrogance. Those who talked about them in front of him showed their awed expressions just because of the mention of a hunter king and one of them standing right beside him. Qiao was unable to feel the rumored aura which a hunter king prompt out to control the surrounding. 

The hunter king perhaps understood the silence of the young hunter and chuckled, "Young boy! This is no more battle of physical strength or achievements. This is called delirium and only a strong brain would fight against it and it is impossible unless we temper our consciousness." He patted his shoulders. Qiao was now carefully looking at the hunter and sure enough currently he himself was not a match. The bearing, clothing, composure and moreover the way this hunter king reacted was all different and poses how strong he can be out of this delirium. 

Though Qiao achieved a perfect body similar even better than the gym guy at this point but he was no match compared to this hunter king. The hunter was wearing dull brown fleece which was sharp contrast to his fair yet stern looks. His face seemed sculpted perfectly like a warrior; a stone was hanging around his neck and the fleece aired with his movements. A sword hung at the backpack which seemed heavy and large just like his six feet and probably nine inches stature. He could not see how the sword does look like but it seemed definitely extraordinary. The sword was made with stones and it was transparent in appearance. 

"Does it mean that as long as we have a perfect control over the brain then this delirium cannot harm us?" Qiao inquired. "Don't ask this question not even think about it. Since the stone has created this strong territory it can easily read what comes in the thoughts." The hunter hurriedly interrupted. Reading the perceivable thoughts was easy task for the stone to read and then ploy so it was better to avoid it. At the mention of the stone Qiao looked up and flashed his eyes. 'It was also one of his perceptions and this hunter king also pointed it now' "You are saying that this is the doing of a stone?" Qiao emphasized every word. Such a wonder of this world; a stone has the intellect to baffle even three hunter kings; such audacious and powerful stone does exists in reality. 

"It is indeed a shredded stone of some powerful monster and probably got fortunate enough to remain hidden this long else it would have been smashed into smithereens by now." The hunter king scoured his hands with dismay. It was troublesome having limited teams for the missions. It was not easy to cover up all the seven continents with the limited number of teams by means of the right amount of time. 

The stone could finally hear their talk since it has returned back to capture the young hunter. When the hunter asked whether it was dong of a stone; the stone was literally glaring the oldie hunter king. 'Since when did they patch up to go against the stone; just when?' 'Ah, it must be my stay of deliberation' the stone concluded. 'No matter how strong hold they could show; they are still way beyond' the stone has quite a resilience compared to them. 

Before it was only wreaking intellect how to get over the consciousness of the young hunter now it has to draw away the consciousness of the oldie too. In the intellect of the stone; the stones were better than the human hunters because the stone does not actually go through the lifespan thing. They never grow old; simply grow powerful. It was enough for the stones to brag and look down upon humans who were under the lifecycle which would eventually end at some point of time. This means the humans of this world were not only fighting for their existence against the monsters but the stones too; such a hazardous thing. 

Not only had the monsters grown powerful with the time also their stone of natural armors become the bone of throat. In the advanced world there was threat of atomic conflict yet here the threat lurks in the forests and under the ground leaving no safe place for ordinary humans. At least there were people in the advanced world working for peace entreaty however monster would unlikely follow any peace treaty? It was the war of who was the better to rule over the seven continents. The crisis might increase with the time since the monsters equally grow strong just like humans. 

Qiao was about to think what he should do to tackle the situation then he remembered the words of the hunter king that he should not think in his brain, it might let the delirium break into his consciousness. The surrounding which was plain before started to change the appearance; the ground was no more solid, t was slowly turning into sand and their feet were plopping in the sand. The hunter was slightly amazed at this change because having been here for more than three days; he did not face such strong illusion. 

He looked at the young hunter and witnessed the expressions of tiredness as if he was consecutively facing these illusions. "What are you thinking?" the hunter king immediately asked with fright. He thought that perhaps the stone brandished the thoughts of young hunter against them. Qiao was apparently calm yet he was actually swearing the calm expressions were the result of his swearing. He always felt well after swearing his supposed to be enemies. "Nothing: I only swore to vent out my anger." He shrugged his shoulders. 

He could swear right? In his eyes; his swearing won't let the stone stole his consciousness. "I see but it might trigger the stone." The hunter creased his brows because never a hunter ever swore a monster before not even in the middle of the battle. "Rest assured: the stone would not be able to discern my kind of swearing." Qiao waved his hand. No matter how genius was this stone; it cannot decipher the advanced swearing. Compared to, it would help Qiao rest ease for some time and let the things unfold in front of him. 

"Then keep going." The hunter chuckled. He was few hundred years old and has no idea how the youth was learning new things or inventing stuffs. But from his look no one can tell how old he was at this time because of his peak years of service among the level eight hunters. He was aspiring to reach level nine and also doing missions. Because of his missions; he was given mandatory hunter king rank until he was able to pass the test for the hunter king. This was the second mission and if passed then he would be given third and last mission for the class test.
