Hunter’s Blade - Chapter 167

[Demon Hunter’s Blade Chapter 167]

“Hope is eager.” It had eyes, but there was no anger or emotion in those eyes, no pupils, and it was quite scary.

Ordinary people staring at a demon with sharp horns and long tail in such a gloomy and closed environment, I am afraid that they have long been scared, but I am me after all… Ciel shook his head: “You will scare other people.”

“Hope wants to know from the lord how not to scare other people.”

Ciel stared at the demon for ten seconds: “Will Hope evolve after eating enough souls?”

“Hope can use his soul to create new abilities.”

There was an idea, a new idea emerged in Ciel’s mind, and this thought made him breathless with excitement: “Hope, after you evolve, you can make yourself human.”

“Becoming human,” Hope repeated.

“Degenerate your claws, your thick scales, your horns, your tail,” said Charles eagerly. “Make your skin smooth and delicate, your eyes clear, and your teeth dull and dry. Thick and heavy, if you look like a human, speak like a human, and act like a human, other people will not treat you as a demon, and you can move freely in the mortal world.”

“Hope like that will have the opportunity to move in the mortal world.” Hope nodded, “Hope really wants to leave here.”

“But don’t you want to make friends with humans? If you want to function in this world in a healthy and orderly manner, you must not kill people. In that case, you will become enemies with humans, and countless people will try their best to kill you.” Xia Er said.

“Hope has become stronger and can defeat them.” Hope bowed his head.

“But you can’t beat them, you can kill people in a village, kill people in a town, beat two or three teams of adventurers, and become a huge terror in an area, but there will always be people, there will always be heroes who will emerge and eventually bring you down Executed. So, in order for you to eat souls for a long time, you have to get along with humans and convince them that you’re just another human being,” Ciel said.

“Hope becomes another human.” Hope nodded, “Become a human, avoid being hunted, and accept the order of this world.”

Demons are not special, demons can be indoctrinated, charr stares at Hope’s shape, it looks sinister and deadly, but it’s still understandable, demons have horns, cows and sheep have horns, demons have scales, lizards and fish Also has scales.

People fear such lives because they know they can take their own lives in an instant. Fear breeds doubt, and doubt drives away the truth.

Knowledge, the devil is the curse of knowledge.

Charles pondered.

People could see, hear and observe everything, but the appearance of demons disrupted this order. People saw demons, heard demons, and observed demons, obviously collecting information in a predetermined way, but when this information was fed back to their hearts, it became He felt a strong sense of panic, and this panic caused people to start to transform, and a large number of information marked as “devil” poured into their hearts, causing people’s soul to change from “human” to “devil”.

But he can transform Hope, and Hope can become human, so that when people see it, the feedback collected will not be demonic anymore.

Gladiu was furious: “How do you instill evil thoughts into the devil!”

“I’m doing good things.”

“Can’t it eat all the way until it destroys the hero you presume?”

“That’s impossible. It is mentioned in traditional stories that even the most powerful monsters will be killed by heroes. This is an eternal truth.” Ciel thought for a while.

“Even an idiot like you has a chance to stop the invasion. Why can’t our demon warriors defeat the heroes of this world? You are observing the world from a shameless human perspective, and make me objective.” Gladiu was annoyed .

Yes, if I put aside my position and let Hope eat all the way, it is indeed possible to eat the whole world…

Thinking of this, Ciel patted Hope: “You should communicate more with humans and accept their way of thinking.”

“Hope doesn’t see the point of that.”

“It will help you integrate into human society, so that when the catastrophe comes, you will also stand up and become the devil against hell.” This is the ultimate idea of Ciel, using the devil to destroy the devil.

Hope knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Ciel: “Hope wants to live, and not for a while, but forever.”

“Okay, I’ll show you the way of immortality,” Ciel said. “Demons are a race that eats souls and can continue to live. If you go back to hell, where every demon is fighting each other, you always have One day you will fall on the battlefield and be absorbed by more powerful demons. But this world is different. There are no rules of such cruel competition in this world. As long as you adapt, you can survive. You can hunt the souls of other beasts and animals to survive and become stronger… In short, this world will allow you to survive as long as the world is not swallowed by hell.”

“Hope desires to be strong and immortal.” Hope bowed to Ciel again, “Hope is willing to follow the great lord.”

Can turn a demon into hell, things like that… Ciel crawled out of the tub, put on clean clothes, put on his armor and cape, and picked up a gray knife: “Maybe one day you’ll be a demon hunter. , There are human demon hunters, elf demon hunters, why can’t there be demon demon hunters? You can even create your own system, a demon tribe that lives safely in this world, not against humans, and excludes humans from the recipe of demons, Hope, You are the one between humans and demons… the devil…”

“Hope will come in handy for the lord.” It greeted the Ciel, “Hope will collect souls and make himself human, and then Hope can have freedom?”

“Yes, if you are willing to find a way to live in this world as I say, you will be free.” Charles greeted Hope.

Hope stood upright like a human, imitating Ciel’s posture, returning the same courtesy to Ciel.

Chapter 213, Growth

After taking a bath, Ciel strolled in the dining room on the ground floor. He instructed Du Wen in advance to collect information about the Redwood Mountain area. Once the information was collected, he was ready to leave.

Elijah walked calmly across the corridor and into the dining room, shivering at the sight of Ciel.

Why was he so flustered.

“Come here, Elijah.” Ciel greeted. After a brief farewell from Rain Bay Hall, Elijah should now have finished his studies at the Stormwind Swordsmanship Dojo.

Elijah approached Ciel uneasily, his hair long and curly: “Master.”

“Did you learn any unique skills there?” Ciel pulled out his knife, “Show me.”

“There are clever sword moves and stunts.” Elijah nodded.

“That’s good, why do you look nervous?” Ciel frowned and went straight to the point. This kid has something on his mind, and he found out some time ago.

“Nothing.” Elijah shook his head.

“Come with me.” Ciel took him to the training hall upstairs. There were some recruits receiving Hugo’s training. After they were eliminated, the number was greatly reduced. Behave well and behave properly.

“Ah, it’s Master Shire.”

“Look at…”

“The legendary gray knife…” The recruits pointed at Ciel when they saw Ciel coming in.

“Focus on training!” Hugo scolded them, and they turned their attention back to swordplay until they were sweating and their legs were shaking.

Ciel greeted Hugo, then walked with Elijah to the open space next to him.

He picked up the wooden knife for training: “What did you learn from the Sword Saint in Yuwan Hall?”

“There are several moves,” Elijah took out the dark elf sword given by Ciel. The whole sword was sharp and beautiful. He stabbed forward quickly in the air, three consecutive strikes, each aimed at the same one The place is pierced from different angles, and it looks very impressive. “This is the so-called…basic attack that Frances told me.”

“As expected of a rainstorm of swordsmanship, the most common attack is also a combo.” Ciel found it interesting. The skills of different swordsmanship schools are quite different, and excellent swordsmen can play an unrepeatable effect.

Elijah looked at Ciel for two or three seconds, then suddenly rushed towards him, waving his long sword with a low body and a very fast speed while bullying him.

Come on for real.

Ciel didn’t hold back and waved the wooden knife. He had already sensed Elijah’s intention to attack, so he took the first shot. The wooden knife hit Elijah’s shoulder, and the pain caused him to deform and fall to the ground.

“What’s that?” Ciel put the knife on his shoulder, as if he was hitting hard.

“Breaking the Rain.” Elijah quickly got up, seemingly not afraid of the pain, “Francer said that he could cut through the rain curtain that day, wave it continuously, and dry the ground.”

“I haven’t noticed that guy is still bragging.” Charles laughed, “How is that possible?”

“Yes.” Elijah seems to have become a loyal follower of the Storm Sword. “The offense is as fast as the rain, the defense is impenetrable, and the speed is extremely fast. This is the Storm Sword.”

“What other tricks?”

“Master Frances taught me a lot, and I practiced repeatedly for three weeks.” Elijah looked at Ciel, “The Rain Breaking Slash just now was the deadliest attack I could make. I knocked all the apprentices down with one blow, but the master? Why can you stop it?”

“Experienced is like this,” Ciel nodded solemnly, “always on the front line fighting demons and all kinds of powerful enemies, day after day, if you don’t sharpen your spirit quickly and alertly, you will have to to my funeral.”

Elijah nodded silently, then looked at Ciel silently, for him, immobility meant that an attack was imminent.

Ciel got ready to meet Elijah’s attack. I saw Elijah make a sudden move, and quickly swung his long sword with his right hand. Ciel remained silent, and Elijah’s sword stopped in the air: “Huh?”

“What?” Charles was puzzled.

“It takes cooperation to demonstrate this skill,” Elijah said solemnly.

“Then I’ll cooperate.”

Elijah attacked again. This time, Ciel regarded himself as a layman with mediocre skills and quickly stretched out his wooden knife to block. Elijah turned around immediately, making Ciel’s counterattack fail.

When Ciel chopped down the weapon, he found that the relative position between himself and Elijah had become very unfavorable. Using his back movement, Elijah had enough energy to attack, and Ciel had just finished the attack, so it was difficult to deal with it.

It all happens in a matter of seconds, and experience and judgment can make the difference.

“Very good,” Ciel nodded reassuringly, “you can already defeat those who are not skilled in a duel.”

“I think I can beat even someone like Mr. Hugo now.” Elijah lowered his voice.

“Hugo is not a stepping stone,” Charles shook his head.

“But I am unwilling to follow his guidance, Master, and I want to fight with you.” Elijah pleaded earnestly.

“Okay.” Ciel didn’t object to someone helping him with chores like pulling horses.

Elijah’s growth makes Ciel happy from the bottom of his heart, and it’s best that everyone becomes as strong as me soon, so that they can share my worries.

He looked at the training ground. Among those recruits who suffered, there was the only girl, she had red hair in short braids, she was very young, with freckles on her face, her forehead was wet with sweat, and she held her hands tightly in her hands. The wooden sword used for training has a meticulous posture.

But Hugo was obviously dissatisfied: “Stand more seriously!”

Hearing his words, more than a dozen recruits became more attentive and tried to put on an orthodox swordsmanship duel stance, but they maintained such a posture for a long time and held a heavy wooden sword in their hands, which was really tormenting.

Charles could clearly hear their slight sighs and gasps.

Tight, tight, their wills are being tested in the summer air.

That’s how it should be, Charles thought to himself.

They must have a tough attitude and be indifferent to themselves and the world around them, so that they can win a chance in the confrontation with the devil, otherwise once they confront the real devil, they will instantly become victims of mental breakdown.

The members of the Seal of Hydris are still active in the countryside, summoning a little devil or two from hell from time to time, these little monsters can easily pass through the gap between the worlds, and then the dark wizard will feed them souls and let them grow Become threatening big ghosts and middle-level demons, similar reports occur from time to time, and they must be dealt with before they grow.

All in all, the Sanctuary still needs a lot of literate combat power to deal with the challenges. According to the current situation of Ciel, he really can’t do it himself and has no time to deal with the trivialities of the devil everywhere.

One recruit after another couldn’t stand the test of willpower. After a long period of tempering, one recruit finally couldn’t bear it and fell down with trembling legs.

Hugo immediately walked over and grabbed his collar: “You are so weak and want to kill the devil?”

“I…I…” The recruit had collapsed, tears streaming from his immature face.

“To lose face in front of the Templar Master, is that what you want?” Hugo rebuked loudly.

He loves these children, he wants them to survive, he wants them to be their own hunters.

Charles thought to himself.

They must have hated him to the core, and it would take ten or twenty years for these young recruits to realize how good Hugo was.

The second one fell was the girl. She couldn’t hold the wooden sword in her hand and let it fall to the ground with a crisp sound.

Hugo immediately walked over and asked her to stand up: “Pick up the sword!”

“No…I can’t…” She burst into tears, her eyes moist.

“The hunter can’t say he can’t, pick it up! Pick it up!” Hugo’s voice became louder and louder.

She fell to the ground, seemingly without the strength to move her fingers, and Hugo continued to scold.

Elijah clenched the sword in his hand and looked at Ciel as if asking for help.

“What?” Ciel was puzzled. “They’re training.”

“…He is hurting people, she will collapse from exhaustion, which is harmful to her body.” Elijah was silent for a while, and finally couldn’t help saying.

“This is part of the training.” Ciel shook his head. He didn’t want to interfere with Hugo’s training of recruits at all. The results of the second phase of the recruits were very good. Several recruits have gradually grown into demon hunters on their own. The third phase of recruits should also have some Nice growth.

Elijah shook his head, then walked towards Hugo tremblingly: “Sir.”

“Elija.” Hugo glanced at him, then looked at Ciel, who shook his head to indicate that he had nothing to do.

“You shouldn’t be so harsh on everyone,” Elijah said bravely.

“There is no room for you to point fingers here.” Hugo gently expressed his dissatisfaction.
