Hunter’s Blade - Chapter 208

[Demon Hunter’s Blade Chapter 208]

“It would be very scary if he showed his true form,” Ciel whispered.

“I have reminded you to this point that if you are still ambushed and killed by it, you are the number one idiot in the world.” Gladiu shouted.

“I won’t die.” Ciel nodded, “but others might.”

“You don’t care if they live or die.” Gladiu scorned.

Cival Eglin, haunted by many mysteries, Ciel can sum up a few at will, engaged in demon hunters, retired early when fighting demons, returned to the castle, his brother died quickly, inherited the castle, and looked sombre.

But there was a huge demon soul hidden in his body, which Ciel did not expect.

“I really don’t want you to take risks in such a late night.” Cival took the torch handed over by others and said sadly, “The horse will slip in the snow, and the trail of the monster will be difficult to follow!”

“Just a look,” Leopold exclaimed. “Just a look.”

“What are you looking at?” Cival was puzzled.

“The face of a demon,” Leopold explained. “Just once, Mr. Cival, I want to see what a demon looks like, and if I can, I’m going to try to chop off its head. Tonight’s Things can be written in poetry…we meet the devil in the snow and the grey moon!”

“It will be very chaotic, sir, Master Pandra warned me not to let outsiders approach! Many animals in the forest also become crazy and murderous just because they accidentally met a demon!” Sivar pleaded bitterly, “You better change your mind!”

“Then you stay and I’ll go alone.” Leopold insisted.

“How can His Highness be in danger alone?”

“We are willing to die for His Highness!”

“Yeah yeah.”

The Shire knew they wanted to impress the future heir to the throne with bravery.

“It’s a sealed demon,” Leopold concluded, “it’s supposed to be harmless.

He glanced at Ciel and added excitedly: “And there are powerful wandering knights helping me! Will you help me?”

Charles nodded.

Prince Leopold was definitely a willful person, holding a high position and holding real power, it was easy to cultivate such a character.

He has the cost of trial and error, and in any case, he just wants to see the devil.

Didn’t he see demons on the west coast?

At the end of the day, I don’t know exactly what’s going on on the West Coast right now, and all the news coming out there is like a fog that keeps people from seeing the truth forever.

“Hey.” Baron Cival sighed, and with the help of his servants, he got on his horse, “Let me lead the way for you.”

Good boy, Demon Cival, where are you taking us?

“Mr. Knight.” Leopold turned to Charles. “Walk beside me.”

Charles nodded: “Please.”

Leopold’s mount was a sorrel steed with armor on its head and limbs, a dark black coat, and four moon-eyed goats on each side. Together, there were eight sinister eyes. Staring at Ciel made him feel uncomfortable.

Others didn’t understand how Ciel felt, and only envied him being able to accompany the crown prince.

“He is nothing.” Pedro, the white armored knight, said arrogantly. “The prince will soon lose interest in him, and then notice the real warriors.”

“Yeah, yeah,” his squire expressed support.

A group of dozens of people rode out of the castle and walked towards the forest on the snow.

“Pete,” Leopold said of Shire’s pseudonym. “What do you think of the current situation in our country?”

Good guy, it’s big up there.

“Crisis, but hope,” Charles said gruffly.

“Hope? You mean hope? I think there’s no hope,” Leopold complained. “Good knight, tell me, where do you think hope is?”

“In you, you are the heir of the country. As long as you succeed, maybe everything will be fine.” Charles boldly put forward his idea. In fact, he knew that this sentence was no different from treason, and it meant a curse. His Majesty Eduardo died young.

But since Leopold came up with a big question, Charles had to respond with an answer of equal weight.

“Father is running the country well.” Leopold frowned. “His rule will continue.”

“Sixty-seven years, or sixty-eight years?” Charles whispered. “Never has a king ruled for so long, more than half a century.”

“Our country has prospered and prospered for half a century, without war or civil strife, until in recent years, one after another anonymous letter has been sent to various places, spreading rumors about my father.” Leopold was indignant, “All this All because of that damn Charles Grani.”

Ciel’s heart skipped a beat: “Have you seen him?” This guy completely remembers me.

“I’ve seen him, on the battlefield,” Leopold affirmed. “He was active on the field side by side with Lady Rocher. Lady Rocher didn’t have enough prestige, so she was willing to visit Arrowstone to boost morale– I could have won that day! Until he crashed into the fray and forced me back. Otherwise, I would have killed Dame Rocher.”

“You can’t kill her,” Charles said.

“What’s the meaning?”

“If you killed her that day…” I will definitely kill you, I will definitely kill you, “…you may be trapped in the army and can’t get out.”

“It’s also possible, because Duke Gregory also arrived at the battlefield with the rebels in Rain Bay Hall.” Leopold shook his head, “Everything is not going well, especially recently.”

“Why do you suddenly want to see the devil?”

“Demons are like a group of bandits that popped up out of nowhere, bred all over Loman.” Leopold said angrily, “I really want to know what they look like and what people usually fight with them. Yes. I know how to be successful on the battlefield, but I don’t know how to fight demons.”

“—The existence of demons is very long. Haven’t you visited the Hunter’s Sanctuary on the west coast? They are experts in dealing with demons.” Ciel felt incredulous.

“Demon hunters are notorious illegal organizations, I would not associate with them, I have not liked them since I was a child, they abused spells, publicly violated the ban on crossbows, and refused to obey royal laws. Rather than expecting them to fight demons, I might as well Come and learn how to fight the devil yourself.” Leopold shook his head.

It was snowing heavily, and with every step Ciel took, he felt that his iron boots were buried deep in the snow, and it took a lot of effort to pull them out.

The people around had unknowingly dispersed from Leopold and Ciel, and the torches in their hands radiated light, appearing hazy in the flying snow, turning into large and small groups of light.

At first, Ciel could still hear their screams, the dogs and horses neighing loudly, but gradually, even these sounds turned into faint whimpers in the wind, drowned in the noise of wind and snow.

“Aren’t you afraid of danger?” said Charles.

“I’ve never been afraid,” Leopold said in a deep voice, “From the first day I came to this world, I swore that if there was anything I didn’t understand, I would definitely go and see it myself, and I would never rely on the teacher. I came to get in touch with the outside world with the jester. The same goes for demons. For some reason, the envoys have been obstructing my understanding of demon knowledge, I don’t know what the hell is scary about demons! So here I am! I must have seen it Then figure out how to beat it! Beat these monsters that pop up in our country.”

Charles stopped and took the reins for Leopoldella: “Then I hope you still retain that courage.”

There was no one around them, and the dark and snowy night enveloped them from all directions, and no light or shadow could be seen.

Chapter 266 The Shadow of the Past

Leopold turned the horse’s head and waved the torch in his hand, trying to disperse the snow: “I can’t see anyone else.”

“Either got lost, or everyone was misled by a certain magic technique and went elsewhere.” Ciel walked under a nearby big tree, stroked the bark, and observed whether there were any traces of illusion around.

“The ring of vision will allow me to see through all obstacles.” Leopold stroked the ring on his right index finger and looked into the distance. “They are not far away, but they can’t see us, so they are a little nervous.”

“We fell into some kind of trap.”

“There is no trap to trap me,” Leopold said confidently. “Come on, everyone will protect themselves. Let’s go to the devil. I have seen its location. I have seen a big tree and a Huge cage.”

“Better stop first and gather the others,” Charles said.

“Wait until I see what I want to see.” Leopold looked forward, as if he had pierced the snow and saw the target in the distance, “I have to see the devil with my own eyes. Wandering knight, you understand Devil?”

“I know demons very well,” Ciel had to admit.

“Can I ask you to be my demonology advisor?” Leopold begged. “No one wants to tell me what a demon is.”

“The devil lives on the west coast,” Ciel said.

“What? Then why can’t I feel their presence at all?” Leopold wondered.

At this moment, Ciel suddenly felt suffocated. In the face of someone like Leopold who didn’t know anything, how should I tell him the whole story?

Do I have to tell him plainly that His Majesty Eduardo Softel is the puppet of the Dark Lord?

“The crown,” whispered Charles, “the crown of His Majesty Eduardo.”

“…” Leopold was silent for a long time, “Do people outside actually know?”

“I just heard it.” Charles added, “The king’s crown, what effect it has, you know exactly what it does.”

“Hmm,” said Leopold reluctantly.

Charles had seen in previous experiences, His Majesty the King lying on the sickbed and Leopold trying to seize power, the King easily defeated Leopold with the power of the crown.

Ciel doesn’t know the real name of the crown, so let’s call it the crown of domination. If the dialogue between the king and his son is true, it can manipulate the minds of all the people on the west coast.

“That’s not God’s creation,” said Charles. “You understand.”

“Is it given by the devil? I…I don’t know, I just think it’s amazing, it keeps those who don’t want to stay loyal, my father is a wise ruler, as long as people don’t cause trouble, the country will continue to be healthy. “Leopold was a little disturbed.

“How did your father get to the throne without the help of demons?”

“Are you questioning my father’s wisdom? His performance convinced the Contact Council and Lord Protector.” Leopold said dissatisfiedly.

“The descendants of King Godel have been sitting on the throne for more than 400 years. When the royal family still has dignitaries, how much resistance does His Majesty Eduardo have to overcome before he can ascend to the throne.” Charles emphasized.

“I thought about it too,” Leopold said distressedly. “I don’t think it makes sense, but…”

He stared blankly at the heavy snow in the distance.

“You’ve always known,” Charles said. “You just don’t want to face it.”

“Is the devil behind everything?” Leopold asked. “Is that so?”

Charles nodded.

“Can you defeat a demon with a sword? I like to use a sword, and I especially like to duel with people. If you can defeat a demon with a duel…”

Charles shook his head: “Give it up.”

“Give up what?”

“Now you are not ready to fight against the devil at all.” Ciel said coldly, “You are just a national idol who grew up in a greenhouse, a wealthy prince who has no worries about food and clothing, you are proficient in combat and military affairs, but you are not interested in this The great crisis facing the world is ignorant because you have been living a lie since you were born.”

Leopold, obviously incensed, turned the head of the horse, whose eyes were as evil as goat’s, with narrow cross pupils.

He pointed at Ciel with the great sword “Shadow”: “No one has ever dared to speak to me like this! Who do you think you are! I am the son of Eduardo, the legitimate heir of the Kingdom of Loman!” He emphasized.

“All I can say is, if I was born with your resources, I would do it ten times better than you.”

Leopold frowned: “You are by no means an ordinary wandering knight. Who are you?”

“I’m a passerby.” Ciel shook his head, “I have to talk like this, otherwise I won’t be able to attract your attention, just think about it.”

Leopold sighed and rode forward again.

“Have you ever been afraid?” he asked. “You look confident, but I think you must have had moments of fear.”

“When I’m scared,” a terrifying image flashed through Ciel’s mind, “six sharp horns pierce the sky, six big hands open cracks, and six eyes stare at my death.”

“But you survived.”

“I also got help.” I don’t know why, thinking of the milk of that tall female elf…

“When I was fourteen,” Leopold said in a disturbed tone, “my father took me to a quiet room in the palace, and he pushed open the door and let me in by myself, and he said I would take over his authority there. , if I can succeed, he is willing to abdicate and hand over the kingship to me.”

“but……”

“But I don’t dare. Wandering knight.” Leopold looked strange, “I still can’t figure out what it is, I saw a white light walking upside down in the room, it wriggled on the ceiling, it Pierce the darkness and wave to me. I hear a thousand people talking in my ear, and my brain is buzzing about to burst, and I know I’ll never have the courage to go in and see that squirming thing, it Like a baby, like a bug, and like some kind of giant snake. So I ran. I don’t know, ugh… the wandering knight, it’s my fault.”
