Hunter’s Blade - Chapter 107

[Demon Hunter’s Blade Chapter 107]

He had been trained by his father to use swords and combat skills since he was a child. With a foundation, Shire believed that Morgan would grow up quickly and might be the fastest recruit qualified to become the next demon hunter.

Those who are qualified, Ciel suddenly thought of this term for no reason. It is suitable for people who become demon hunters. They have reasons to fight demons, they have the skills of swords and crossbows, and they can fight all kinds of demons after training.

It is impossible for Ciel to fight against the army of demons alone. Now that the sanctuary continues to expand, he can finally send hunters to various places in Loman to eliminate the dark evil in various places, so that Ciel does not need to work hard and can focus on more important things. The thing is, the elves are studying how to resist the invasion of demons, and he can take the time to understand the knowledge of elves.

There were three recruits in the training ground, and the last woman noticed Ciel’s arrival and greeted him.

“Ah, it’s Lord Ciel.” She has blond hair, the bloodline left by the barbarian invasion, her face is wrinkled, and she is in her thirties.

“Hello, Ms. Divina.” Ciel nodded, the other party was from a noble family.

“Here, I’m just your follower.” Diwena was polite.

“She trains very fast.” Hugo said, but Charles felt that Hugo was a little intimidated by her, was it because of her aristocratic status?

Diwena owns real estate in the nearby village. Her parents are big and powerful. They married her to a baron in Yuwan Hall. They lived happily, but the baron devoted himself to demon belief and worshipped a prince named Dirty Clothes. The devil, who would go bankrupt for this, eventually evaporated from the world, possibly dying in some evil ritual.

Devina is distraught and seeks a way to fight the demon.

Ashtree Hall was the Hunter’s headquarters in Upper Loman, so she came to ask for help and eventually decided to join, graciously covering many of the temple expenses.

Inheriting the land of her deceased husband, plus her own property, Diwena has an annual annuity income of more than 350 gold coins, which is quite rich.

Madden once said, half-jokingly, that he didn’t want to work hard and wanted to marry Diwena, and from then on, he would have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life. Ciel supported this very much. Madden was young and strong, with a determined and enthusiastic personality, and Diwena was a match made in heaven. .

Charles walks away just in time before everyone salutes him, he doesn’t like red tape.

He entered the sanctuary garden, where Sarah was standing on the steps, watching Delich and Valanelle arguing.

“What are they arguing about?” Charles asked curiously.

“We want to plant winter spirit grass. Grandma said that it should be planted on the silver moon night and the moonlight is full, and the elf said that the seeds should be sown in the cold morning.” Sarah said helplessly.

“It doesn’t seem to make a difference.”

“The difference is huge! As long as it is a little different from the ancestor’s formula, the potion will fail, or even have the exact opposite effect.” Sarah said worriedly.

“The elves have a long lifespan, maybe the elves are right.” Ciel looked at Valanelle, the elves were far taller than Delicious, and now crouched down, trying to make himself appear equal to Delicious, no matter whether Delicious No matter how stern and fierce Xi’s words were, he seemed gentle and kind.

“Ugh…I think so too, but grandma won’t change her mind.” Sarah bit her lip, a little uneasy.

“They will have a result in the end.”

“Really? That sluggish elf will delay everything for a long time. I want to go back to the workshop earlier.” Sarah said helplessly.

“We can go back now.” Charles disagreed, “Let’s go.”

Sarah didn’t speak, just followed Ciel silently, and they walked to the height of the side tower together and returned to the witches’ potion workshop.

“Do you like it here?” Charles asked.

“It’s… good here,” Sarah whispered. “I think I’m doing something meaningful. We’ve made a lot of potions, sold them to people around us, helped them heal, and used divination to help them understand the future. What’s going to happen, and explaining some natural phenomena to them, it feels better than being in the Everglades.”

They walked a little further and stopped in front of the workshop. Brian was tinkering with something inside. He made a mask and put it on to cover his ugly mouth. Usually he was helping the witches. .

“Charle.” Sarah looked up at him.

“What’s wrong?”

“I want to know how to defuse the hatred in people’s hearts,” Sarah sighed. “When I’m out there, I still feel like people are watching me behind my back, talking about me, spreading rumors about the Everglades, feeling like we’re a bunch of primitive people. People and lunatics think witchcraft is magic that kills people.”

Severing the chain of hatred, resolving the mutual mistrust between Loman and the Great Marsh, and bridging the gap between the two sides, Charles thought to himself, what a vast undertaking.

“Tomorrow is the New Year.” Ciel had no choice for a while, “We should have a good rest, and we will talk about the troublesome things later.”

“Okay, okay,” Sarah sighed. “Anyway, it’s nice to be here.”

Alicia came back before supper and slid into the room.

“Charle!” Holding a box, she excitedly climbed onto the bed and shook Charles, “Look what I bought?”

Charles was puzzled. The box was not big: “What is so small.”

She slowly opened the box, which contained a pair of gold rings.

“Charle, this ring can remember the love between us.” She said seriously, then picked up the ring from it, put it on Charles’ ring finger, and put one on herself.

Charles looked at the ring to the candlelight. It was very beautiful and carried some kind of deep emotion.

“Is it more valuable than that scabbard?” Alicia asked suddenly.

“—The value of both cannot be measured in words.” He had an idea.

They kiss and then hug.

Ciel looked over her shoulder and saw Luanna outside the door. She looked at him with meaningful eyes while watching Ciel and Alicia hugging each other, hooked her fingers lightly, and lifted up her maid skirt. , revealing the black silk stockings underneath, slightly erecting the buttocks, infinitely provocative.

It was a signal to invite him to have fun, and Charles received it.

“We’ll be together forever, right?” Alicia looked at Ciel with blurred eyes.

“Of course.” Charles put his arms around her waist.

Alicia is so sluggish, she probably won’t notice…

A poet was present at the New Year’s dinner. He sang a song about hunting demons. People sang and danced to the beat of the song. Luo Dan learned to play a musical instrument when he was herding sheep. The banjo was used for him to try out, and the sound of the piano was sonorous and powerful, making the whole night high-pitched.

Charles picked up the glass and stared at the warm scene in front of him.

The hunter team was rebuilt, the king was devastated by the whistleblower letter, the sanctuary recruited people, the mechanism gradually stabilized, everything was temporarily peaceful, and finally had a chance to take a breath. During this short period of time, he hopes that he can continue to cultivate a variety of abilities, Prepare for a bigger cause.

“Chasing desire, looking for power. How do you feel?” Gladius asked.

“Fine, can’t get better than this.”

“Um.”

“…I also defeated you, you couldn’t control me, you couldn’t drive me.”

“I won’t control you, drive you, or enslave you. I don’t need that. Ciel.”

“Then what do you want to do?”

“I just need to… make you like me.”

midsummer.

“That’s it.” The coachman was dark-skinned and skilled. He shouted and pulled the reins. The two horses pulling the carts neighed, raised their hooves lightly, and stopped on the road.

Looking far into the distance, Shire saw a beautiful plain with bright yellow flowers scattered wildly under the scorching sun, among which were dense dark green shrubs, forming a wonderful embellishment, and like a natural boundary, cutting through the beautiful wilderness.

There are tall stone castles built on the hillside in the distance. Depending on the terrain, manors with red tile roofs are scattered on the hillside. The lush woods hide the looming shacks and barns, which are obviously private property of the nobles.

“That’s the castle of the Durand family.” The coachman pointed at Ciel’s gaze when he saw it.

“How’s their reputation?” Ciel slowly climbed down from the back of the carriage.

“I don’t dare to say that the situation is not good recently.” The coachman answered Ciel’s question subtly, “Are you here to buy a horse?”

“Yes, Garnier told me that the best horses in Loman are produced here.” Charles saw a vast horse farm in the field. The fence framed the grass to prevent the flowers from spreading around. He looked at sixteen or seven coat colors. Different horses are roaming and grazing, and there are horsemen who take care of them and keep the horses fat and strong.

“Of course, although our place in Waring is the easternmost part of Loman, there are even big people on the west coast who come to buy it.” The coachman said proudly.

“Very good.” Ciel took out a silver coin from his purse and handed it to him, “I am very grateful for taking care of you along the way.”

“You are too kind.” The coachman was pleasantly surprised. “You are really a kind person.”

“Then please tell me some news, what are the people in the village talking about?” Ciel walked away in a hurry.

“Talking about? Hey, that’s too much. Some people want to fight taxes, some people complain about their livelihood, and there are strangers wandering around the village. I just want to live in peace and make money.” The driver was helpless.

“Is there any ‘devil’ haunting? It’s like that kind of mysterious and weird thing.”

“Well…” The coachman sighed, “We don’t understand, and we don’t dare to ask, but it does exist.”

“Then I’ve come to the right place.” Charles smiled. “Goodbye, sir.”

“Goodbye.” The driver squeezed his straw hat, then drove away, gradually driving away along the field road.

This place is so hot, and Ciel can’t stand it for a while in the sun.

He was still wearing black magic armor, a black cloth coat to block the sharp patterns on the armor, a silver-gray cloak behind him, a gray knife on his waist, and cowhide boots on his feet.

He heard the faint sound of running water, followed the sound and walked towards the field, and soon saw a pool of water hidden among the bushes, covered by greenery and protected from sunlight.

He walked quickly to the shade by the water, knelt down on one knee, picked up the cool water and wiped it on his face to relieve the heat.

This time it was much more comfortable. Xia Er saw his appearance reflected in the pool, with short reddish-brown hair and blue eyes. He used to have a handsome appearance, but he had been through the weather in the past two years, so he seemed more mature than his peers.

There is a scar on the lower right side of the cheek, which is rough in shape and was broken by a stone.

“You’re getting ugly, you’re getting old,” said Gladio in disgust. “Where’s that handsome young boy?”

“It’s gone forever.”

“You can no longer attract girls with your pretty face, feel their rejection, you will be impeccable.”

“People can’t always attract the opposite sex with their looks.” Ciel stood up and walked towards the horse farm.

This is the territory of Linbianbao, located on the eastern border of Loman, with the corpse-throwing swamp to the north and the barbarian territory to the east, a veritable border of the kingdom.

Du Wen collected a report that there were villagers trying to summon demons nearby, so Ciel came to check the situation. Although staying in the temple for a long time was comfortable, it would also sharpen his ambition. Besides, he has been focused on training in the past two years, and his strength is very good. Capsize in the gutter.

The stables are very large, and there is a small hut at the entrance to accommodate the people passing by. A young man in a short-sleeved cloth shirt and a white waistcoat sat on the bench. When he saw Ciel, he couldn’t help but look at him more.

“Adventurer?” he asked.

“Forget it.” Ciel sat beside him and saw the emblem on the other side’s waistcoat, vaguely embroidered with a big wolf, stabbed by an arrow in the buttocks, looking very funny.

“I’m from the de Durands,” he said arrogantly.

“You work for the nobles, ah, it’s amazing.” Ciel nodded casually.

“How can there be such a good job these days, the army is in chaos, and the taxes are heavy.” He felt that Ciel was not respectful enough, so he was angry, “Could it be that the adventurer is good?”

“It’s nothing,” Ciel shook his head. “There are indeed some twists and turns. I’m busy dealing with various things, and at the same time, I have to deal with various monsters.”

“No more.” The servant glanced at the stable, the door was closed, “There are the best horses here.”

“You are also here to buy horses.”

The servant glanced at Ciel: “Do you have any spare money to buy horses? The horses at the riverside racecourse are very valuable! At least 10 gold coins per horse.”

“There is a need…and it’s not my money.” Charles saw the closed door, “When will the door open?”

“I called the door, and they went to inform them. They should come in a while. The lord asked me to pick out some of the best horses. You should be able to buy cheap and affordable horses.” The servant explained.

“What’s your name?”

“Lucas, how about you?”

“I’m a passerby.”

He said dissatisfiedly, “You bastard, I told you my real name, but you dealt with me under a pseudonym.”

“After all, you don’t need a pseudonym.” Charles smiled.

“Unlucky devil.” Lucas pouted and cursed.

“Okay, man, we’re waiting in the shade, and we should get along in harmony. If that’s true, we’ll get along for a while,” Ciel said kindly.
