Hunter’s Blade - Chapter 237
[Demon Hunter’s Blade Chapter 237]
“I thought you were an undercover agent planted in our midst! You do nothing wrong!” Doria shouted.
Luana looked at Ciel imploringly.
“I am.” Ciel said, “Actually, I also support darkness, and darkness can bring a beautiful new future to this world.” I have said so many things that go against my heart in my life, so why not say it again.
“That’s how it should be said, that’s how it should be said…” Gladiu said slyly.
Hearing Ciel lying, Luana breathed a sigh of relief.
Charles read disappointment in Leopold’s face.
“Is that so?” said Leopold. “Is it necessary?”
He was miserable.
Charles thought.
Ciel looked at the chain of snakes behind Serava, it would not be misled, would not be deceived by lies, it stared at Ciel from beginning to end, and once Ciel did the slightest bit of transgression, the chain of snakes would instantly attack him.
It would be unwise to confess your true intentions here with Leopold.
Both of us must hide in the dark, somewhere deeper than the darkness, before we can deliver the fatal blow to the darkness.
The key is to be fast.
The Dark Lord completely digested the gods of the Temple of Beauty, within a few weeks.
Once the Dark Lord withdraws to pay attention to human affairs, Ciel’s little resistance will be ended in an instant.
A massive demonic invasion, within seven months.
Once the demon opens the door to the two realms, a steady stream of demons will descend from the sky, including many high-ranking demon gods.
Give me some breathing room, let’s slowly solve one danger after another, Ciel said in his heart, don’t cause extra trouble.
Fortunately, Maura died fast and crazy enough to not have time to tell anyone about my resolution.
I cannot remind you, Leopold, that you must also remain hidden.
“…Well,” Leopold said, “then…I also pledge my allegiance to the ‘Master’.”
The king’s envoys from the prince’s party smiled.
“The owner will make you his new champion,” Serava said. “Your worth will be appreciated.”
“But,” Gladiu said, “how do you know if he is pretending to surrender to the dark, or if he has actually embraced the dark path?”
Chapter 303 Stuck outside the city
The West Coast is within easy reach.
Surrounded by towering walls, this majestic city struggled to see the tallest tower, which cast a huge shadow in the twilight light, shrouding the group in gloom.
“It’s finally time to go back.” Leopold breathed a sigh of relief. “This visit is longer, longer, and more dangerous than I thought.”
Luana pointed to the animal-shaped reliefs adorning the city walls.
“It’s the same as it was three years ago,” she said. “The city is still as dark and dangerous as ever.”
Ciel noticed the slight tension on Luana’s face and couldn’t help but stop.
“Don’t want to go in?” he asked quietly.
“Yeah.” Luanna bit her lip, “but leave me alone, we’ll just go in.”
“It’s up to you,” Ciel said. “Anyway, we have something to settle outside first.”
Leopold looked back at Charles and Luana. “You won’t come in? The curfew is coming.”
“Forget it,” Ciel said loudly, “you go back to the court first, and we’ll be there later.”
“Then? How many days? It’s getting so dark, and I’ll throw a banquet for you,” Leopold said.
“The bigger the fanfare, the more uneasy I am,” Ciel said. “Anyway, with Serava protecting you, you won’t be in danger. Before we join you, let’s figure out the situation.”
Leopold looked out at the city walls on the west coast.
The guards, sergeants and crossbowmen watched the prince drive in silence, not showing enough enthusiasm.
Ciel felt that these soldiers were very serious, indifferent, and their eyes were cold, in other words…like being possessed.
Shields, shoulder armor, cloaks, burqas… They are decorated with goat head symbols everywhere, symbolizing their loyalty to the Softel family.
The sheep’s head is inherently evil, and there are a pair of moon eyes staring at Ciel gloomily. Whenever Ciel sees this strange coat of arms, he has a feeling of being watched.
“You have to follow us, it’s a means of ensuring loyalty, and who knows if you’ll betray us,” Serava said.
“It is up to His Royal Highness Leopold to decide,” said Charles.
Serava did not get angry, but actually looked at Leopold.
“It’s all right,” Leopold said. “It doesn’t matter if Charles and Luanna go into town in a few days.”
“Dear sister, don’t abandon us.” Charlotte looked at Luanna reluctantly.
“I’m hopelessly in love with this city when I think of my favorite sister Charlotte living in this place,” said Luanna yin and yang.
“Hee hee.” Charlotte smiled.
“You’re running, you’re running away!” Doria shouted.
“No, sooner or later I will duel with you.” Ciel shook his head, “Go, Doria, we have a chance to fight.”
“Humph.” Doria shook her head and rushed towards the city gate with her horse in between, shouting, “Open the door! His Royal Highness Leopold has returned to the capital!”
The gate opened, and Leopold bowed his head and walked through the gate with a heavy heart, followed by the other king’s envoys.
Ciel took Luana’s hand and walked away, their fingers interlaced.
There is a large area of affiliated towns outside the city wall on the west coast. In order to avoid blocking the passage of the army, the law stipulates that no houses can be built on both sides of the avenue. Therefore, the whole town is divided into several parts by the well-connected avenues, which are not connected to each other.
At sunset, the workshops and markets were dark, and the lights in the taverns and inns lit up one by one.
The peasants drove away the chickens and ducks and prepared to go home, and the travelers searched for the accommodation.
Guards patrolled with swords and torches, and pickpockets tactfully hid in the alleys.
“I thought the West Coast was full of demons,” Ciel said. “The whole city has been corrupted, and the people of darkness are everywhere.”
“It will be soon.” Luana said indifferently, “The master will be back soon and control everything.”
“We’ll stop it.” Ciel pulled Luana into the alley, wrapped her around her waist, and kissed her ears. “We’ll save everything.”
“how can that be possible?”
“It’s the closest to victory now.”
Charles took a large bundle of white wedges from his backpack.
“How did you put such a big thing in your backpack?” Luana was surprised.
“After all, this is that backpack.” Ciel shrugged.
He embraced a large number of white wedges, dozens or hundreds of them, each with three fingers thick, long arms, and heavy.
“You got it from the kings,” said Luana.
“Accurately, Edwal gave it to me.” Ciel nodded, “It can stop the invasion of demons.”
“I know, what’s the use against the ‘darkness’?” she asked.
“I will defeat the darkness,” said Ciel. “Don’t worry.”
“Where’s the white wedge?”
“If you take White Wedge back and send Valanelle to various places in the world, you will stop the demon invasion. You will save the world.”
“Me? Go back?” Luana clenched her fists, “I know what you think, what do you think…”
“Yes,” Charles nodded, putting White Wedge back in his backpack, “I think you’re in danger! Honey, if you go deep into the West Coast with me, you might die!”
“I’m not afraid of death!”
Luana bit Ciel hard.
hiss – it hurts…
Ciel covered his bitten chin, which had been broken by a stone before, and now has another wound.
“Why did you bite me,” Charles said.
“Because you look down on me,” Luana stared at Ciel, “I will die in a proper place, better than avoiding war.”
“But you’re afraid of the West Coast, because the West Coast has things you and I can’t handle,” Charles said.
“Then you told me to go back? Tell me to go back to Ash Tree Hall first, and then wait for the news of your death? You’re really not a goddamn thing.” Luanna said bitterly.
“I have a lot of means, so I don’t necessarily die. Besides, it’s better for me to die than yours, and it’s better for both of us to die together,” Ciel said.
“Don’t mention ‘death’ again.” Luana wept and kissed the place where she bit Ciel before. “Can’t we live together? Run away, run away from the west coast, run far away.”
“No, Leopold can cooperate with me. When I eliminate the darkness, he can save Loman as a qualified king, and the demon invasion is also stopped by the white wedge. This is all happiness.” Charles said, “If you come into the West Coast with me, you’re really…very dangerous, and I can’t keep you safe.”
Honestly, inside the West Coast, I can’t even guarantee my own safety.
Luana wiped her tears.
After taking his breath away, Ciel continued: “So, what is it? What is there on the west coast that makes you feel so dangerous that you start to be afraid as soon as you see that city? Other king’s envoys? And Worse than Mora?”
Luana, tearful, but not losing her vigilance, looked around, raising the dark talisman in her hand to make sure no one was eavesdropping or spies in the alley.
“Yes,” Luana sighed, “the other King’s envoys of the dark party, Mora is the strongest among them, but the others are not far behind.”
“We also have envoys who are willing to work with us, that’s okay,” Shire said.
“Also. Those fallen heroes who were corrupted and enslaved by the darkness. They were famous adventurers who had the ability to fight against the darkness in their lifetime. Now they are corrupted by the temptation of darkness, and they have gained power that is almost immortal and immortal, and their strength has grown exponentially. With these Fallen heroes sit around the darkness…”
“My knife is designed for slashing monsters. Believe in my strength.” Ciel said.
“And the crown of darkness on Eduardo’s head! Its magic can control the minds of all people! The boundless darkness…including you…the charr…you can’t either. We have to go, the west coast is your invincible fortress. ‘ Luana lamented.
“Eduardo is in a coma now. If he doesn’t kill him now, he will have no chance in the future.” Charles said.
Luana squatted on the ground and cried for a while before standing up.
“Charle,” she kept kissing him on the face, “I can’t go now. You have your mission, so you have to go through any danger. But I also have things I want to do.”
“I know,” Ciel remembered, “you want to avenge the imperial doctor who hurt you and betrayed you.”
“Yes,” Luanna stroked Ciel’s face, “the master will save me from the court, and you will kill the doctor completely, so that I owe the darkness less than I owe you. .”
“We don’t owe anyone.” Ciel helped wipe away Luanna’s tears. “It doesn’t matter how many times I say it, I love you, Luanna.”
“Yeah. I know.” Luana rested her head on Ciel’s chest. “I have to go back. I will only worry you if I continue walking with you. Now, let’s do one last big big thing. The doctor lives in the city. outside.”
“It’s not the last time, there will be in the future.” Charles promised, “You just take the white wedge back to the Ash Tree Hall first, and I will go back after the darkness is resolved. When these two major things are settled, we will live together and be extremely happy. .”
“I trust you,” Luana whispered.
Gladio pondered for a long time.
“You still haven’t said how you should eliminate the darkness, that is the real king of darkness, a whole king of darkness, the top demon god who has come to this world. It just shows a little power enough to toss you to death, What’s more, go all out? Few of the gods in this world can fight it.” Gladiu said.
“It’s alright, with you here, are you still worried? I’ll start with King Eduardo first, and then gather everyone’s strength. With you in town, we’ll fight the King of Darkness together.”
