Fifteen kilometres from the place where Evan was fighting, a person, whose face was covered with a black mask, lay on the top of a three hundred meters high building.
"I don't know how you disappeared from that park but you won't be able to escape from me." a man's voice sounded from behind the mask and he took out a sniper rifle from his storage ring.
The rifle was similar to Barrett M82 and was releasing the aura of an A+ rank artefact.
"I can sense the mark that I left on him from this direction" The man muttered and aimed his rifle in Evan's direction.
The scope present on the rifle suddenly lit up and the man's vision started to expand.
In less than three seconds his vision reached a far distance and he was able to see Evan who was standing amid a crumbling building.
"It was a good thing I left a mark on him when he was busy eating his ice cream earlier or it would have been impossible for me to look for him after he suddenly disappeared from there." the man muttered as he started to pour his mana into the rifle.
The rifle absorbed all the mana that man poured into it and a dark red bullet which was loaded inside the rifle started to shine.
Ten seconds later the rifles stopped absorbing mana and a cruel smile appeared on the man's face.
"Let's complete this job and get my remaining payment." the man muttered and pulled the trigger.
Bang-!
A loud booming sound reverted in tens of kilometres of the area as a dark red bullet shot out from the rifle.

Sera was looking at a holographic screen in front of her with her eyes wide open.
There was only one question running through her mind.
"What the hell is going on here?" She muttered, seeing how easily Evan had dealt with the thirty hunters she had sent.
Just like the purple-eyed man, she also thought that sending thirty hunters to deal with him is simply an overkill. But she wanted to test those thirty hunters and also wanted to know if Evan is still hiding his rank, so she still sent them.
But looking at the demolished building and the buried hunters, she can't help but feel stunned.
"From the casual look on his face, I am sure he did not even use his full power while fighting against them."
Sera thought that those thirty hunters will definitely be able to make him reveal all of his abilities after all, there were three B+ and seven B rank hunters among them.
Even an A rank hunter will have to fight without holding back if he wanted to take care of them. But seeing how easily Evan dealt with them her mind was in complete chaos.
She took out her communication crystal and called the purple-eyed man named Paul.
"Paul, what is his rank?" She immediately asked after he answered her call. She can't feel Evan's aura because she was looking at him using the holographic screen, but Paul was seeing the fight live. He was just one kilometre away from the place where Evan was fighting and was using a skill to hide his presence. So she wanted to know from him what is Evan's current rank.
Paul didn't answer immediately after hearing her question because he was also stunned after seeing what happened.
But he soon recompensed himself and said while gritting his teeth, "A rank"
He was angry that Evan was able to fool him even though he is an A+ rank hunter.
Sera went silent after hearing him. After a moment she spoke once again, "What about the timer for their transformation?"
"Just as you told me, it is three minutes."
Sera's mouth can't help but twitch after hearing Paul. The hunters that she sent were not normal.
All of them were special and they could transform into humanoid monsters just like Carlos who was killed by Evan a few months ago. After transforming they would become far more powerful than normal hunters.
But unlike Carlos, these hunters were like puppets who can't think properly.
Sera was afraid that if they transformed while fighting against Evan, he would be killed by them because of their increased power.
Which is why she set a timer for their transformation. She thought they will be able to deal with Evan in less than three minutes.
After three minutes they will transform into humanoid monsters and will carry out her next order which was to wreak havoc in the city.
She wanted to see if they would remain indifferent to pain even after being transformed. If they start to wreak havoc, the guards of the city will come to stop them and she would get her answer.
Unfortunately, all of her plans were ruined because of Evan. Before they could transform all of them were killed by Evan.
"Is any of them still alive?" Sera asked Paul.
"Most of them are dead, but I can feel five of them are still alive," Paul said looking at the dust cloud in front of him. "They should be transforming now."
Suddenly Paul felt five wild auras coming out from under the debris.
After hearing five hunters are still alive and they are about to transform Sera also looked at the holographic screen.
BANG-!
But before those hunters could come out, both Sera and Paul were startled when they suddenly heard a loud booming sound.
"Paul what hap_" Sera wanted to ask what happened but she stopped when she saw a large hole in Evan's chest.
Paul who was standing one kilometre away from Evan was also stunned and looked in the opposite direction from where he heard the sound.
But when he looked in that direction he did not see anyone within ten kilometres of area.
"Paul help him" Suddenly he heard Sera's anxious voice, "I need him alive."
"Damn it" Paul stopped searching for the person who attacked Evan and was about to help him when he stopped in his tracks and his eyes opened wide.
