Chat Group For Magicians Chapter 166 Stonks

Mana Scan is like a Holographic Scanner that scans a 20 km radius from where I was located and everything on that radius will be revealed despite their location and the hindrances that blocks the vision of anyone. When I used Mana Scan, all the people within the 20km radius glowed blue. Yes. Without exception. Male, female, teenager or adult, all of them glowed blue during the duration of mana scan. Only one of the figures did not glow blue.

Red.

One of the figures around the 3rd floor of the building is colored Red. In the memory I gained after eating the Genome whatever it was, normal people glows blue, magicians, mana traces and sages glows gold, monsters glows green, insects glow pink, animals like birds, cats and dogs glows darker blue and demons glow red. That is what the extra memory said to me. As for objects like trees and buildings, they only appear as a grey object which can be seen through if the user of the ability wanted to. Of course, this ability cannot be used for peeping which is too bad. Anyway, back to the topic, the red figure is currently accompanied by a normal person based on the color of the figure which means that this person might be a target.

I cancelled out the Mana Scan and I almost collapse after that. It looks like my body cannot handle the strong mana drain that the mana scan does. Good thing it only lasts for a few seconds before I managed to get back up to my feet. What should I do next? Confront the demon? But I am not someone like Moonlight who has different variety of magic skills and besides, I am too reliant on my martial arts mastery than the magic itself since I am new to this stuff. What should I do? I calmed down and think for a while. I am still a newbie in magic uses and the first magic I gained is not for offensive but rather for mapping. Sure, it may be useful, but I don't think it would be good enough. I may have the Blazing Shoes and the Burning Gloves but I don't think I need to be so self reliant to them. Once they are removed from my body, I am can't use any magic at all.

Attacking a target in a.s.sa.s.sinations are not good if you are not familiar with your target. You might end up blowing your cover or might end up dead. I am not a hero and I am not an overpowered individual who will fight for justice. Sometimes, having too much justice is excessive. Thinking rationally would do the best for this one. I have decided, let's trace this demon first before calling Moonlight.

...

Briskly walking in the hallway, I managed to get to the third floor without breaking a sweat. The students are not so numerous now compared to earlier since the bell rings. Only the students who still has no homeroom teachers on their room, students on a club and a few other students who are going elsewhere. I already memorized the position of the guy that is marked as red earlier and where this guy and the person he is accompanying is going. I don't mind cutting cla.s.ses for the afternoon, there is no actual cla.s.s today anyway and the actual day of the cla.s.s without any interruption would be starting by tomorrow. The school hallways are a bit s.p.a.cious now so it is impossible for me to miss those guys.

I continue to walk through the area until I came across them currently descending the stairs. I just spotted them when my phone started talking from my earphones again.

"Warning, the demon aura is nearby. Please procceed in caution."

That means, the guy earlier is indeed a demon. I have seen him before and he is seated in the third row of the chairs. I am in the 2nd row so he was not able to hear our discussion with Moonlight about him. If he did, he must have fled already. Tailing them without anyone suspecting is hard. You need to act natural and maintain the 5 meter distance from them. I didn't really bother too much with his companion which is a girl, what I am looking at is the resemblance of this demon to a normal human. However, I don't see any kind of sign that the guy I am seeing right now is a demon. But because my mana scan reacted to the guy, that means, this guy is really a demon in disguise. Since the demon in human guise did not look like a demon at all, I decided to activate Mana Scan once more to check whether the guy is a demon or not. I silently mumbled mana scan under my breath and once again, the entire layout of the building appeared in my mind once more. I followed them from far away and checked again. This time, not in the layout in my brain but personally in my eyes. What made me stunned is the appearance of the guy in my eyes.

Before I looked at him under the Mana Scan influence, he looked like a guy who can pa.s.s as a model in a fas.h.i.+on magazine. Has a flawless baby face, has a good skin, wavy hair, good built body and most of all, he is tall. He is someone that many girls would fall in love at first sight. But when my eyes is now under the influence of the Mana Scan, it didn't just change. It is a total makeover. The dreamy looking guy for girls became the most dreadful and a monster that can only be seen in nightmares. His skin is bright red with blue glowing cracks on his skin. His head has a single horn potruding from his forehead, his ears is sharp, his hair is long, his eyes looked like that of a lizard and most of all, his teeth is saw-shaped one.

I almost shouted after seeing the appearance of the guy. He is not something that should be existing here in the real world. He should only exist in the fantasy world where warriors and heroes defeats them. Not in this real world. I held my collar for a bit and breath in a mouthful of air before I calmed down. He might look like a person right now, but once he peels off that skin of his, it wouldn't be strange to see his looks. Now what I am fearing is the girl's safety. I can confront the demon but I am quite sure that it will immediately trigger me from exposing the world of the Magicians to a normal person like her. This is quite a dilemma. If I didn't interrupt, this girl might become this demon's dinner tonight.

Calculating everything, I decided to just keep following them for now. This demon might not victim the girl right now and confronting this guy too early would really make me get into a very bad situation. This is just a solo mission so it is indeed going to mess up with my way of life right now. Too impulsive can cause death therefore, I have to retreat for a few distance. From the looks of it, the demon and his companion had yet to notice my presence yet. If only I have a helper like Moonlight, then this wouldn't be too hard.

The two descended till they reach the first floor. They continue to move towards the garden in which during this time of the day where cla.s.ses are ongoing, is currently desolated. I am sensing that they are planning to do some "miracle" but I am not the guy that will bother stopping them. Still, I hoped that they won't do that "miracle". It is just too embara.s.sing to watch here. The demon looked around before he led the girl to the bench. They sit down and started talking some sort of things, which I can't really hear much. I am trying to lip read them but it's harder than I thought. I am just hiding not too far from them. There are not a single person around so hiding is the most easiest thing to do to conceal your presence. I can blend in to the people if they are around but without anyone, hiding is my only choice.

Soon, I saw the two of them close their faces to each other. Their lips started to get in touch with each other. I get the cringe to shout and interrupt them but that would surely make a bad idea instead. They continued to pa.s.sionately kiss each other which is starting to get annoying for me. I can see the demon's hand started to unb.u.t.ton the girl's blouse. I wanted to curse because they are blatantly doing this in broad daylight and in a public place to boot. Because I can't last on this scene anymore, I grab a rock on the ground, infused the flames on it, and throws it to their direction. And that throw is precisely a good hit on the head.

POK!

The two stopped kissing, because the girl was. .h.i.t by the rock. What is more, she fainted and blood started to ooze out from her forehead. Did I just made it bad? The guy shook in fury and looked around with his face being contorted into a monster-like feature.

"Who dares to interrupt me in my meal!?"
