Hunter’s Blade - Chapter 209
[Demon Hunter’s Blade Chapter 209]
“wrong?”
“If I had had the courage to go in, my father would have passed on the throne to me, counting this year, I should have ruled for twelve years, and I would have ruled this country prosperously, winning every battle and gaining all The love of the subjects. How could Loman be as divided as he is today? It’s all my fault.”
“The ‘that thing’ that forces you to take on this challenge is the most hateful.”
“But it doesn’t matter, I have learned to face everything, including the ‘demons’ that I will meet next.” Leopold said, “The envoys forbid me to know about demons, even if demons are active all over Loman, they Still hiding records and documents about demons – I’ve had enough, I can feel what you’re saying, they’re hiding it from me. And I have to find the truth, just by seeing the demon in person and knowing what it looks like , abilities and fighting style, maybe I can deal with it later. I can’t last a day at the court, my close friends warn me that demons hide in every corner of the country, and the envoys say that demons are nothing but ordinary spirits. What talent Destroy the lie? The truth can destroy the lie! So I came to find the truth. You said I was not enlightened…you are wrong! I came after I was fully enlightened.”
He inadvertently increased the speed of his horse, and Ciel had to trot to keep up.
“Great and reckless,” said Ciel, “to charge at what he doesn’t know.”
“Haven’t you? Wandering knight, have you ever wanted to know the truth in your life?”
At this moment, I wonder if I can finally stop the demon invasion, if I can find the White Wedge on the west coast.
“I want to know, if the old hunter didn’t go back to comfort the little apprentice, but kept up with everyone immediately, would things be different,” Ciel said.
“what does that mean what do you mean”
“It’s nothing, I’m a little confused.” Charles shook his head, “It’s just a story.”
The blizzard is bigger.
Ciel felt the snowflakes accumulating on his helmet, and the steel was freezing cold to the bone, and every step forward took a lot of effort.
“Come on, wandering knight.” Leopold encouraged.
As he spoke, he rode his horse forward, and at the same time, he was short and covered his head and face with his hands to block Feixue.
“We can’t stop.” He turned his head and grinned. “We were almost there.”
“When you see the demon and satisfy your curiosity, will you kill it?”
“Of course! Demons are not good things, are they?”
“Yes!” Ciel nodded affirmatively, “You have encountered a lot of misinformation, but your understanding of demons is correct. Demons are by no means a good thing, they are the enemy of this world!”
The two need to shout loudly for each other to hear.
“I wish I could chat with you a little more!” Leopold shouted. “You seem to know everything! You must be able to help me!”
Infected by this enthusiasm, Ciel almost wanted to smile. Leopold was such a straightforward and forthright person. It must be very interesting to befriend such a person.
“Okay!” Charles responded.
As long as you see my true face, don’t draw your sword and cut me.
“It’s cold here, but courage can dispel the cold, my mother told me!” Leopold rode boldly forward, fearless and never retreating.
Immediately he stopped.
Xia Er’s line of sight passed through a cloud of snow, and saw a figure beside a big tree not far away. Is that a person? Why is this person motionless?
Leopold froze in place, as if he had seen something extraordinary.
Charles stepped forward, taking a torch from the stiff Leopold’s hand and lighting the trees in front of him.
I saw a strange corpse sitting beside the root of the tree.
It was made of different dead people, and it was old, stiff, putrid and half-boned.
A head was cut off, with round eyes, and was sewn to another human body, the torso wearing blood-stained armor.
A spear stabbed from the top of their heads, piercing the entire frozen corpse.
Holding the spear in both arms, severed at the elbow, frozen and frosted, fingers bent over the shaft of the spear, the severed wrist dangling in the air.
Charles let out a sigh of relief.
There was a word slanted on the bark, and Ciel leaned in to illuminate it.
“It’s better to be dead than alive,” Ciel saw the nicks penetrated into the bark, dark red in color, and filled with withered blood.
Chapter 267 Bird Demon
“What do you think?” Ciel pointed to the curse on the bark.
“Dead is never better than alive,” Leopold said firmly. “Who would think it’s better to be dead? Death is reserved for old people, and warriors must go through a hearty battle before they die willingly.”
Leopold stepped forward, pressed the blade against the bark, cut the blood-red writing off the bark, and stepped into the snow.
“Wandering knight.” Leopold clenched his fists at Charles, “You think so too.”
“Where will you go after you die?”
“Huge vortex,” Leopold said tensely. “In the holy place, a snake will decide what is right and wrong for us, and let us be punished in the dark chaos, or safely through the vortex and enter new life.”
“For some people whose lives are miserable, maybe the next life will be better.” Ciel pondered.
“They should try their best to find a way out of life!”
“There are indeed many ways out for those children of noble blood who were born wrapped in seven layers of silk, but it is difficult for most of them.” Charles looked at the stitched corpse under the tree, the head and the body were divided into two parts. Personally, why did they die here?
What murdered them?
Who are they?
These mysteries charr will never be known, and the truth will be forgotten in the snow.
“Then most people choose to die? Most people are fighting passionately.” Leopold said loudly, “Mr. Wandering Knight, your attitude is too pessimistic! The poor are promoted on the battlefield. , The poor have made a lot of money by doing business, and power and wealth can be obtained with both hands!”
“Life is hard.”
“I believe that an ordinary person can live a good life through legitimate and honest means, why don’t you believe it? I also heard that Shangluoman has a group of inferior people called Baizituan, who want to rebel. Rebellion, looting nobles and making yourself rich overnight. I hope you are not one of them.”
“I’m not.” Charles denied it. He remembered what Caluson had said. “Looking at the whole world from above and looking at the whole world from below, what you see is completely different.”
“Okay, wandering knight, I’m wise enough, I wouldn’t have thought so much for other people.” Leopold said dissatisfiedly.
He wanted to continue talking, but panicked shouts could be heard in the distance.
“Wow!”
“damn it–”
“Help!”
Leopold’s face sank, and when he looked gloomy, that look reminded Charles of a bronze statue, as strong and cold.
“Are you going to see the devil you’re thinking of, or help those people?” Ciel wondered how the crown prince would decide.
“The future ruler must rescue his subjects,” Leopold said firmly. “Give me the torches.”
Charles handed him the torch, and saw Leopold ride away, the mighty steed trotting through the snow.
Ciel misses Angry so much now that if the Demon Horse was by his side, he wouldn’t have to use his legs to move, and he doesn’t know where it’s gone now…
Ciel can tell the direction without a torch, and there are always bright spots of light interlaced in the dark, marking the direction of the crowd.
The closer he got, the louder the clanking of swords and the movement of giant creatures. Ciel listened to those complicated sounds silently, and could almost outline the face of the fierce battle in his heart.
“Uh uh—”
“terrible!”
“Prince Leopold!” The people fought hard.
Ciel supported a big tree and hid in the darkness, and he saw an unprecedentedly terrifying monster in front of the people.
It is four or five meters high, more than one floor of a building, covered with thick feathers, orange-red like fire in the dark, strong arms, sharp claws, and legs covered with dark demons to support its huge size.
What is it?
Is it a bird?
A giant eagle with legs?
In any case, it must have become like this after seeing a demon. The soul of an animal is easily infected by demons. Once the soul is demonized, its appearance will change rapidly.
Leopold had already rushed to the battlefield, and he attacked the monster from behind on horseback: “For Loman!”
In an instant, the monster’s head spun backwards, almost as if it had no spine, the whole fierce face quickly turned to the back, extremely strange, the dark eyes were full of demons, and Leopold’s mount neighed and raised its front hooves. , fell backward, and even took Leopold directly into the snow.
Ciel stared at the terrifying face. It had a huge beak and tentacle-like black crystals growing on its head. The rest of the hair had all fallen off.
What animal can turn its head half a circle?
“Gah!” After frightening Leopold away, the bird-shaped demon quickly turned his head forward, and his giant claws slapped wildly, sending out a gust of wind with each slap.
Several knights in front of it were beaten back and forth, daring not to approach its attack range.
“His Royal Highness has fallen!”
“Go and save him!” People lacked the will to fight, but now seeing Leopold falling in the dark, they all fled from the bird-shaped demon and rushed towards Leopold, who was pinned down by the horse. Pull him out with all his hands and feet.
“It’s horrible!”
Ciel vaguely saw a few people being knocked to the ground, and the injuries were shocking. He vaguely saw the sunken helmet, the blood gradually darkened on the snow, and the armor was smashed into the body, so that it was difficult to separate.
“I don’t need help—” Leopold yelled, seemingly refusing to be rescued, “My horse!—”
“Come on!”
“Going to retreat!” The others didn’t want to let Leopold take a risk, and quickly dragged him back, his heavy body dragging on the snow, making a rustling noise.
“Get me up – let me fight!” Leopold roared.
“Everyone, run!”
“Retreat with the prince!”
Ciel stood up from the edge of the tree and stared at the bird-shaped demon. Its feathers seemed to be alive, and its roots were erected. It sensed that people around were fleeing, and it let out a frantic roar. fear.
“Wow-”
“Uh, ah-” The fragile mind shuddered, and only rushed into the whole night.
Ciel jumped forward, ready to hunt the demon, but a loud shout came from behind him.
“Hey! Let’s go! What are you doing!”
He turned around and saw several knights looking at him in panic.
“I have to kill it.” Ciel looked at the bird-shaped demon.
It grabbed the dead body on the ground, biting off the outer armor and ripping out its internal organs.
“How can you kill it?”
“It’s so strong! Don’t die!”
“You’re wasting your time, run!” Their faces were young and anxious, and they obviously didn’t want Charles to be buried here.
“It’s okay, I…”
“Let him go! He will die soon!” Pedro, a knight in white armor, rode closer, frowning, “Cover Prince Leopold away! He thinks he is great! We will collect his body tomorrow. Only Prince Leopold has a chance to kill that monster, don’t persuade him, this fool may think he is better than His Royal Highness.”
“what–”
“You don’t even have a torch!”
“Hey!” they sighed, “how can there be such a fearless person?”
