Hunter’s Blade - Chapter 135

[Demon Hunter’s Blade Chapter 135]

“Sorry?…” Draco let out a muffled sound from his throat. “Rocher! What do you know! Tell me! Tell me who did it! Why didn’t you say anything? Who killed Rene! Who made Rene like this? I’ll kill him at the risk of my reputation!”

“Please allow me to restore the situation at that time,” Rocher’s attitude was rigid, “Everyone chased the red fox, the horses raised their hoofs, Lord Garnier shot an arrow, but missed the fox, the arrow hit Lord Rene, and he was shot from the horse. When it fell, the situation suddenly became chaotic, and the horses stepped on one after another, so there was this appearance.”

Draco lost his voice and looked at Garnier.

Garnier remained silent, avoiding everyone’s attention.

He wanted to hide.

He wanted to go back an hour more than I did, he wished he had the ability to rewind time, he regretted it, he regretted it immensely.

Charles sighed.

Why does time always flow in one direction?

If you can go back, how many regrets can be made up.

“Send a letter.” Losses ordered, “Don’t stop, send a letter.”

So the scribes took out the parchment again and continued to copy the words, preparing to send the news of Rene’s death to all parts of Loman.

Soon every Loman from the northernmost Rain Bay Hall to the southernmost Tide Hall will learn what happened here, that Garnier de Alberta killed his father.

Is this okay?

The soft underbelly of Ash Tree Hall was completely exposed to everyone’s eyes. The worst thing was that I couldn’t stop it. My legs…

Losses looked serious, and began to discuss the next situation with the guards around him. He is the eldest son of Duke Ruiwei and has a great influence on this place. He should feel that he is qualified to manage the situation in front of him, so he began to discuss how to deal with it.

As their conversation grew louder, people could no longer hold back their desire to speak, frantically talking to those around them about what they had seen and heard today, and sharing the details of what they saw in every detail.

Noisy, noisy, noisy.

Charles felt at a loss for a moment in the confusion.

Throw me to hell, it’s better to kill a million brats than to suffer here.

“Don’t just talk, start tonight, hunt the little devils.” Gladiu muttered.

He saw that Gina didn’t shed a single tear, just hiding in the shadows, looking at her father’s body, and after noticing Ciel’s gaze, Gina hid deeper, and Ciel couldn’t see it again.

where did she go.

“Your Excellency Ciel, you and I should overcome the difficulties together.” Rocher rode close to Ciel.

“I know.” Charles pursed his lips, “I know.”

I can solve some things, but I can’t solve all of them.

Losses seemed to have discussed the results with the people around him, and he announced loudly: “As the heir of Duke Loman above, I announce the arrest of Garnier de Alberta!”

The guards looked at each other, but moved closer to Garnier.

Garnier’s long suppressed emotions erupted: “Go away! I am the Earl of Ash Tree Hall! I am the Earl of Ash Tree Hall! Drive him away!”

At this time, Losses showed self-restraint: “You are crazy, but I won’t mind.”

“No one can arrest me.” With a gloomy face, Garnier jumped off the table, still carrying his bow and arrow, and rode back toward the Ash Tree Hall, calling out to the knights and soldiers loyal to the Alberta family along the way, ” Assemble! Protect me!”

The people dispersed in a hurry, and quickly split into those who supported Garnier, those who supported the arrest of the murderer, and those who complimented Loxis Rivi.

The only one who cared about Rene’s body was Draco, who was crying.

Ciel took a deep breath, only to feel that the future was uncertain.

Chapter 168

Elijah came back with a basket of fish, his trousers rolled up, and stared at the chaotic camp in front of him.

“Come here.” Charles greeted him.

He put the fish basket on the ground, most of it was still alive, the gills were slightly opened and closed, and the scales were stained with water.

If nothing else, it would have been a perfect and enjoyable day, and he had a chance to talk to Elijah about the future and how to be a better hunter…

“We’re going back to the Hunter’s Sanctuary,” Ciel sighed. “It won’t help to stay here.” Garnier had already left, and Rene’s body began to rot.

“What’s wrong?” Elijah was puzzled.

“Lord Rene died in an accident, let’s talk about the details.” Ciel turned his horse’s head and rode back toward the Ash Tree Hall.

Luanna was secretive and didn’t know where to go. Ciel and Elijah returned to the Ash Tree Hall. The road was chaotic. The citizens were discussing the price of today’s vegetables, and they saw a large number of people returning. After rounds of speculation, they carefully discussed the possibility of a certain nobleman’s sudden illness, but most of them were confused. When Charles passed by, people couldn’t help shouting at him:

“what happened!”

“Hey!”

“What the hell is going on!”

Ciel can only remain silent and silent, spreading the news of Rene’s death will only cause confusion, and people will be worried, linking this case with various other trifles, and using their boundless and unprofitable imaginations .

He bowed his head and walked until he returned to the Hunter’s Church, changed his clothes in the room, and then gathered the core members of the church to discuss matters.

Myself.

Ciel looked at the few people assembled in the office.

Ines, Alicia, Duvin, Hugo, Sarah, and Celine.

“Welcome.” Ciel greeted Celine. She appeared here because she represented the will of Caluson. Over the years, Caluson’s forces have expanded. After Charles removed the Thieves Guild, Caluson almost took over. The plate of the union, but he himself is becoming more and more mysterious, and Ciel has not seen him for a long time.

Xilin’s delusional disorder improved and gradually became similar to ordinary people, but her memory did not recover.

“Master Ciel.” Sirin nodded at Ciel, then smiled at Alicia.

“Why call us?” Ines asked confused.

“Rene is dead,” Charles said briefly, and even now, when he said this, he felt a moment of confusion.

“Which Rene? Rene de Alberta?” Ines couldn’t believe it. “No, really? Why? You don’t go out together for summer hunting, sports, hunting, catching deer and bears or something, purely Entertainment…how did he die? Fell into the water?”

“I was shot by Garnier and then trampled to death. Maybe he was shot and died instantly…I’m not sure,” Ciel said.

“…Kill his own father!” Ines was surprised, “No, then what should he do, the court will judge him.”

“I am also thinking about how to deal with it. Count Rene protects our sanctuary from the shadows of the west coast. Once we lose the protection of the secular nobles, we will be very vulnerable. The normal development rhythm will be disrupted in an instant, and many plans will have to be overturned. Come.” Charles sighed.

“Get Garnier’s support.” Ines said quickly.

“It depends on the attitude of the vassals. If Louis, Baron Elm, Lady Rocher and others swear allegiance to Garnier, maybe Garnier still has influence, but if they insist on sending him elsewhere Execution, then there is a problem.” Hugo said cautiously.

“Murder is a crime, father murder is a felony, maybe the judge will reduce the sentence, but Garnier is still unpredictable. The most important thing is that the local court has no right to judge his lord, he will be sent to the Rain Bay Hall, and if the rain The Duke of Bay Hall refuses to intervene, and Garnier will be transferred directly to the west coast and handed over to the king…” Charles mentioned what he was most worried about. Once it fell into the hands of His Majesty Eduardo, the development of the matter would be unpredictable. .

“Why did Garnier kill Rene?” Sirin asked.

“It was a complete accident. He was going to hunt a fox, but Garnier fired his arrow, but he missed the fox, and instead shot Mr. Rene,” Ciel said.

“Oh.” She thought.

“Did Draco not protect him?” Sarah asked hesitantly, “With Draco’s mana…”

“At that time, he was busy with other things. He was worried that there were dark wizards in the forest. Those wizards set up traps to attract monsters, making hunting dangerous.” Ciel explained.

“Could this accident be caused by the dark wizard?” Ines naturally guessed.

“If a wizard took over his consciousness, changed his character, changed his abilities…” Ciel began to imagine, “The wizard entered Garnier’s body, used excellent archery, and talked to everyone as usual. ”

“Then there is an evil wizard in Garnier’s body now.” Hugo was a little disturbed, “How do we drive out that evil consciousness?”

“You have to have it first.” Alicia shrugged, “Maybe she’s lying to herself.”

“In short, we have to go to the castle to see the current situation of Garnier. No matter what the truth is, we have to find out before we can make the next decision.” Ciel said.

“Hey, I still didn’t expect Rene to die like that.” Ines shook her head, “I thought he would live a hundred years. He looks quite healthy, but unfortunately things are fickle.”

Ciel looked at Du Wen, hoping that he would hire some people to collect information. Du Wen probably knew what Ciel meant without communicating, and they just exchanged glances a little.

“No matter what the situation is, the worst outcome is to lose the protection of the nobles of Ash Tree Hall, but as long as I prevent the situation from collapsing and prevent the situation from deteriorating to that point, there is always a chance.” Ciel felt relieved for everyone.

“I hope Garnier has a good brain.” Ines was not optimistic.

“You’re going to the castle?” Sarah asked.

“Yes,” Charles said.

“I’ll go too.” She got up. “I have something to talk to Mr. Draco about.”

“Very good.” Ciel guessed that it was mostly about the Great Swamp and the wizard, and only information that was convenient for their internal communication. He ended the meeting and walked to the castle with Sarah.

The doubts are numerous, and it is only until the crisis occurs that I connect the trivial things.

Charles thought to himself.

Why do predatory dragons show up in groups in the forest?

Why does the white deer show up in the hunting ground?

Why did Garnier’s archery advance by leaps and bounds?

Rene’s sudden death casts a shadow over everything. The father-killer will be cast aside by everyone. Even if Garnier succeeds smoothly, people will not accept his rule willingly, and will definitely treat him tough and everywhere. questioned his actions.

“Does witchcraft derange the mind?” Charles asked.

“…Don’t portray witchcraft as so evil.” Sarah shook her head, “Wizards just use the power of the witch script to inherit the knowledge of their ancestors.”

“I met a fallen dark wizard who used his staff to conjure instant aging magic.”

“That must be an aging text. It will drain the target’s energy in an instant. You are not affected, right? The damage may be hidden under the surface.” Sarah asked worriedly.

“I’m fine.” Poor anger.

“Grandma said that I would live alone in the future, and she predicted her own death, again and again.” Sarah said in a sad tone.

“Is there any difference between living alone and in the past?”

“I don’t know what to do if there is an unbearable accident,” she whispered.

Ciel couldn’t help looking at her. Sarah was even more beautiful now. She used to have a youthful appearance and had not fully grown. Now her appearance is mature and her facial features are pretty. If…

“It’s almost here.” Gladiu stopped the further association.

“I…and everyone in the church will help you.” Charles encouraged her, “We are a group that supports each other.”

“Maybe.” Sarah’s tone was uncertain.

They came under the Alberta castle, the green hyacinth flag fluttered high, and the guards lowered the iron gates and guarded the road to the hills. They wore steel breastplates and pointed helmets, and the underside of the armor was dark red soft Robe, can withstand blunt force impact, holds a spear, and has a strict attitude.

“Don’t enter.” The castle guards were unfriendly.

“Don’t be like this, you know me.” Charles said helplessly, “How many times have I been in and out.”

“Lord Garnier’s order.” The guards stretched out their spears and blocked the road.

“He decided to close himself off and not ask about the world? It doesn’t help.” Ciel was surprised.

The Guard simply remained solemn and silent, carrying out his duties as a subject, and Charles was blameless, only annoyed.

“I must see Garnier,” Charles said.

“Lord Garnier doesn’t want to see anyone.” The guard maintained his attitude.

“Let’s go back.” Sarah didn’t want to delay here, Charles guessed that she didn’t like the feeling of being stared at by those soldiers on the city wall.

“Let them in.” Charles heard the sound.

He looked towards the source of the sound and saw Gina holding the gate with her hands, her face pale.

“Oh…” The guards hesitated for a moment, then looked at each other.

“Didn’t you hear?” Gina repeated sharply.

“Okay, there’s no reason to refuse.” A man who looked like a captain said behind the wall, “Open the door and let the Templar and the witch come in… I hope they can make a difference and help us…”

Chapter 169

Gina wore a plain white dress, her red hair was tied with a veil, and there was a bit of mourning in her eyes, a kind of indifference.

She first took Ciel to a warehouse on the edge of the courtyard, where the corpse of Count René was parked, surrounded by mosquitoes and flies. Ciel noticed that Luanna was standing next to her, she chanted the spell lightly, and the flying insects disappeared.

“Why are you here?” Ciel was surprised, Luanna entered the castle faster than him, “How did you do it?”

“I’m a friend of Miss Gina.” Luana smiled.

“But you kidnapped… kidnapped her two years ago…” Ciel couldn’t understand.
