Hide didn't turn around to look at the center of the park just yet. He kept his eyes locked on the masked man standing behind him.
"Did you open this gate as well?" Hide asked.
His voice was steady. The dark mana swirling around his armored body thickened, reacting to his rising anger.
"And why did you push me into that Dungeon?"
The Joker stiffened.
For a fraction of a second, the relaxed posture vanished. It was replaced by a rigid, absolute stillness.
Then, the Joker chuckled.
"You indeed are sharp," the Joker said.
He tilted his head, the painted diamond eyes of the mask boring directly into Hide.
"Here is a question... what do you think the gates are?"
Then he took a single step forward, at the same time as Hide pushed his body to attack and then he vanished.
Hide stood alone with Zenith besides him.
He slowly lowered his sword and scanned the empty amusement park, but his enhanced senses picked up absolutely nothing.
'What the hell is that talent?'
