Chapter 12 - In the dark

When Seul-gi fired her arrow, a dark aura expanded from the Jester, and after a few moments it engulfed everyone that was near the Jester.

All of them panicked when they lost the ability to see, but it seemed that the Jester was unaffected by the darkness, because he started attacking Spark once again. This time, Spark couldn't even try to block it's attacks now that he couldn't see.

Spark was attacked constantly by the Jester, he was only trying to protect his vital organs from being attacked. If it wasn't for hardened body and pain resistance he would have been killed already.

But within the datrknes there was one light source, Seul-gi's spirit companion. Only the crow's purple body was lighting up the nearby area.

Seul-gi tried guiding her spirit so she could see the jester, but Spark was constantly moving and the jester was extremely fast.

But then Seul-gi got an idea. "WATCH OUT" she yelled before a flash of purple light illuminated all the darkness for a few moments, but those few moments were long enough for Seul-gi to fire a arrow towards now exposed jester.

This time Seul-gi saw the moment the arrow tit the jester, the jester stared at her as the arrow hit him in the shoulder. After that the darkness came back.

Seul-gi felt something was wrong when the darkness came once again. It felt like a sence that was telling her to run, but it wasn't fear, it was worse.

When the spirit summoned another lightning bolt, Seul-gi and Joon-ho saw that the jester swinging it's dagger at her.

Lucky Joon-ho was quick to react and impaled the jesters leg with a icicle, and Seul-gi hit him with her bow while he was down.

Then the darkness came again, and Joon-ho prepared icicle's to fire while Seul-gi took out a arrow to use as a improvised dagger.

While all that was happening Spark was thinking of where the jester was now because he couldn't see what was happening in the tower.

The purple light once again illuminated the tower once again, but this time Seul-gi and Joon-ho saw the jester on the floor trying to run away. Before that could happen Joon-ho launched icicles at the jester, immediately killing him.

As he did that the darkness was gone, and a system window appeared congratulating them for killing the jester.

'Congratulations on killing the illusionist'

'The next wave will start once again soon'

They weren't to happy about the next wave incoming, but they wanted to see what the boss gave.

When they searched the jesters dead body they realized that it has a skeleton that used a illusion to pretend not to be a skeleton.

They only found to magic items on the skeleton. One was a small mirror that was hanged on a golden chain and the other one was a dagger with a smoke black gem inbeded in it's hilt.

Two system windows appeared before them when they picked the items up.
