## Tips

* Magicians are known to use their wands to "trick" the hunter if they are catching up, sometimes resulting in a Terror Shock. Instead, try standing still, so that the hunter might think you used your wands to escape and travel some distance away from you. When the hunter is distracted by the "invisible Magician", use the wands to make your way out of the situation.
* Remember that Magician's illusion has its own collision, so you can force the Hunter to hit your illusion by using the wand near small passages like the entrance of a building.
* Magician's skill is effective against Smiley Face's dash.
* Using the wand can also require fast reflexes. If you hear the hunter charging up an attack, use the wand and run behind them when invisible. It's easier if they're using a heavy attack, as it gives you more time to react.

* A Response to Baron DeRoss' Letter:

> Dear Baron DeRoss,
>
>

> As you mentioned in your letter, each magic performance is like wandering at the crossroads of life and death. And the unpredictability of such destiny is often presented by some unusual signs.
>
>

> On the night of the performance where master lost his life, a boy barged in backstage and I made the most critical mistake of my life.
>
>

> This boy was such a sign. His presence was llike an opportunity that ignited the wavering anger I had in my heart.
>
>

> I chased the boy away and never got back to checking the props.
>
>

> Intentionally or not, I didn't complete the task I was supposed to do that night.
>
>

> I'm not trying to put up an excuse for my actions here. I merely wanted to use this as an example to show you the potential rippling effect of an opportunity. I'll consider your suggestion, but I'm no detective and I don't know much about that missing gentleman.
>

> All the best.
