Hunter’s Blade - Chapter 25

[Demon Hunter’s Blade Chapter 25]

Is that so? Before Ciel had time to think, she entangled again.

Alicia kissed Ciel deeply, but she avoided Ciel when his hand touched her body.

“I said, you smell.” Alicia tried to avoid it. “If you respect me, don’t do it.”

Now Ciel finds out that women are unpredictable again, and now he is too hard to panic, but she tells him to give up, which is simply going against nature.

He felt that if he was a shameless man, he would rush to use force now.

He found out he wasn’t and decided to lie back on the blanket.

Ciel distracted himself from other things, pondering the idea of the demon, the sanctuary, and Alicia.

“Are you angry?” Alicia saw that Ciel was ignoring her, so she ran her fingers around Ciel’s hair, “Don’t be angry. I’ll make it up to you.”

“Compensation?” Ciel was still confused. The next second, Alicia kissed again, and he held her in his arms.

Two people, Ciel is seventeen years old, and Alicia may only be sixteen years old. They are still two children, inexperienced, and completely ignorant of the meaning of all intimacy. They just regard kissing as a game, as a means of relaxation.

They were having a lot of trouble, and it was not until later that Ciel realized that kissing would also be tiring, and a deep drowsiness came to his mind, and he fell into a drowsy sleep.

Ciel had an exhausted dream of being chased by monsters, buried under stones, or falling into an abyss, but when he woke up, he felt that the accumulated fatigue had been swept away.

The sun shone through the tent and dimly hit the ground.

Alicia was lying on top of him, slumbering soundly, leaning in all directions, pressing down on Ciel’s arms, legs and feet, so that he couldn’t get up, and he didn’t dare to move, for fear of waking her up, so he could only do this Feel her weight.

Alicia is really light, Ciel estimated that it might be less than 100 pounds, and her body is very thin. At such a distance, he can clearly see Alicia’s face now. She wears makeup. Covering up the shriveled skin caused by lack of nutrition made Xie feel distressed for a while.

He had heard many people speak of love, the poet in the tavern compared it to the stinger of a bee, the mercenary as a means of deceit and diversion, the nobleman sang about it, the peasant did not understand it, Etienne clearly He had been told that love was a stumbling block and that murdered men.

But they all mentioned to some extent that one day, people will feel the appearance of love, and at that time, everything is self-evident.

All those who have once despised, ridiculed, or thought that they will never have a relationship with love will suddenly realize after that day and devote themselves to it.

Charles felt that he was the one who felt the love, and he wanted to know more about love.

“It’s better to understand physiology and neuroscience, that’s where love comes from,” Gladiu said.

A woman’s laughter sounded outside the tent, awakening Alicia.

“Ah—ah—” Alicia yawned, turned over in a hazy mood, and slowly opened her eyes, “Why is it only daytime.”

“Good morning,” Charles said, trying to be friendly.

“You pressed my hair.” Alicia frowned.

Ciel got up quickly, they got up after a little confusion, she was a little disheveled, but she didn’t mean to dress properly.

“You like watching this, don’t you,” Alicia said.

“I like it.” Ciel nodded vigorously, “Can I… touch it?”

“Why should I let you touch my things.” Alicia turned her head and put on her dress neatly.

“When I get back to the Ash Tree Hall, I’ll find you.”

“Find me?”

“I’ll give you the money first. I want to take you out of the brothel.” Charles took five gold coins from his purse and placed them on the small table.

Alicia opened her mouth and looked at the few gold coins on the table.

“If… take your money, I’m really a prostitute.”

“Why?” Charles was a little surprised.

“It’s too much, just a few silver coins.” Alicia walked to the table with a complicated expression, “You’re not a rich person either.”

“I like you, these are for you.” Sometimes Charles just doesn’t understand what a woman is thinking.

“You’re a demon hunter and I’m a whore, people like us… will it be okay?”

“Why not? We’ll live the happiest lives.” Charles raised his voice. “We can do a lot of things we love together. Just wait, I’ll take you out of the brothel when I get to town. Take it out, and then you won’t be a prostitute anymore.”

“Then what am I?”

“Of course you’re still you,” said Ciel, “but you won’t feel inferior because of who you are, and then we can live happily ever after.”

“Bah, mortal suffering is endless,” Gladius exclaimed in the Ciel’s heart, “you will only suffer, over and over again in the conflict between limited ability and limitless ambition. She will ask you for jewels and real estate. , want a title and a crown, make you exhausted, let you be content with the status quo, women are the potion that erodes ambition, and breaks the wildfire of tranquility. Listen to my advice, give her up after riding her a few times, and don’t get too deep. ”

“You stop.” Charles muttered in his heart.

For now, at least, the eyes of two naive people left him uninterested in demonic realism preaching.

“Really? We’ll have a good life?” Alicia said happily, the haze’s face swept away, “I’ll be a good wife, I’ll cook for you, I’ll help you clean the house .”

“I don’t have a home. I live in the Hunter’s Sanctuary. You can move in when the time comes. It’s a very grand castle. We’ll be with each other.”

“Quack-quack-quack-” Gladiu laughed wildly in Shire’s heart, “I’m hunting demons alone, and I’m alone at home alone, and you call this mutual company.”

Alicia’s face flushed, she hugged Ciel and buried her head in his arms: “Mr. Demon Hunter…”

The laughter outside the tent resounded again, and this time it was not just one woman, but several women laughing together.

This was really creepy, and Ciel took Alicia and pushed the tent out.

“Ah…” He rubbed his forehead.

“Oh!” Alicia was startled, “How could this be…”

The women in the flower-top tents laughed at the spectacle on the clothesline.

Shire’s wool coat shrank to two-thirds of its original size after being washed, and looked particularly shriveled.

Alicia blushed, and hurried over to take it away and toss it to Ciel.

“Anyway, I’ve washed it and put it on for me.”

“Thank you so much,” Charles said.

The mature women surrounded him and laughed at him, and Alicia lowered her head blushing and pushed him gently.

The shrunken jacket could only fit on his upper arm, and the tight clothes stuck his chest against his back, but Ciel felt very happy.

Chapter 32 Return

After the demon was dead, Rocher organized a group to return to Ashtree Hall.

Charles was sitting in an open open carriage. The late autumn wind blew his whole body cold. Charles tightened his short jacket, leaned his back on the side panel of the carriage, and stretched his legs out.

Out of respect for him, people let him ride alone in a car, but that means he can only speak to Gladiu.

“I’ve been thinking about what Alicia said to me, ‘Seal the sheepfold.'” Ciel mused. “If you do that, the wolves will never be able to get in.”

“Think of what she said? Impossible, I can see it clearly, you miss her lips, the smell on her body, and you want to ride her like crazy. She didn’t promise you last night, otherwise you will definitely be in a mess, like She made a riot like a beast, regardless of how much pain she was in, and in the end, she was complacent and thought she was full of male power.” Gladiu laughed loudly.

“Didn’t I do nothing?”

“It makes you even more terrifying, that you are kidnapping her fate. If you hurt her, insult her, break her heart casually, she will become strong, cold, and insightful from now on, be careful about everything around her, and You have vented, you have sown seeds in her fertile soil, and you are satisfied enough to clear your mind and complete the next goal. But now, everything has changed! From now on you will have to keep looking for her, She also has to deal with you, and you two make each other a burden to each other.” Gladiu always seems to make sense of his alarmist words.

“What about you? Does the devil have no love?”

“We don’t even have a gender.”

“That’s really primitive.” Charles said dissatisfiedly in his heart.

“Bah, try this.” Gladiu’s voice changed suddenly, from hoarse and dry to sweet and charming, “How is it? Do you feel that the relationship between us is closer?”

Charles shivered when he heard it, he felt nauseated, and retched for a while lying on the side of the carriage.

“Are you okay?” asked the soldier on horseback, “We can stop.”

“It’s alright, just keep on the road.” Charles slipped into the carriage.

“You don’t seem to like it at all, what’s going on!” Gladiu changed his voice to his original voice, and it became more normal all of a sudden, “Your subconscious clearly shows that you like this kind of voice very much.”

“The voice of a ‘woman’, not the voice of a ‘devil’. You know what? Every time you talk, I think of the way you used to be, with scorch marks on your face and huge horns on your head. Such a monster starts using the little girl’s The voice speaks, and you expect me to respond? You don’t weigh yourself.”

“You actually started to speak ill of me, it’s impossible, only I can speak ill of you.”

“Why?”

“Because I am more advanced than you, I am a demon, an advanced creature, traveling between worlds.”

“Hosted in various shells, and now I can only use my brain to think.”

“You do not understand.”

“I understand that you are testing me, corrupting me, and you think that one day I will be completely defenseless against you, so that you can completely control me.”

“You have this kind of thought, which is itself a manifestation of depravity.”

“You only need to know one thing.” Ciel didn’t bother to speak in his heart, so he just let the devil read it himself.

No matter what I become, I’m a demon hunter.

Ciel didn’t want to talk to the demon any more. He casually glanced into the distance and saw a field of enchanting beauty, and he focused his attention on the surrounding environment.

In front of you is an endless gray-yellow wilderness, and the mottled forests are luxuriantly distributed in the distance. The leaves are all withered, but they are hung tightly on the branches and refuse to fall. Perhaps the plants also have their own determination.

The team marched forward on the broad paved road. Horses’ hooves trampled on the stone slabs and rattled rhythmically. The road was built with funds raised by nearby residents. Every 100 meters, there was a roadside monument engraved with the name of the donor.

Soon close to the village, long fences divide the fields, dividing them into horizontal and vertical blocks, neat and regular.

Each large field is subdivided into three areas, separated by ridges. The three-bed system has become very popular, and Shire is familiar with this. Two of the fields are cultivated and one is rested and fattened.

When Ciel was very young, he carried a wooden barrel back and forth between the cesspit and the idle fields, doing countless farm work.

The farmers are planting wheat and rye in the fields, these seeds are very strong and can withstand the harsh winter cold, the Shire knows the snow will cover them, but they will not freeze the seedlings, and when the flowers bloom in spring, the snow melts into the soil, and soon they are It will sprout, and in summer it will become bread and go to people’s stomachs.

A six-year-old cow with a broad muzzle hummed beside the road, screeching whenever a carriage passed by, but when the vehicle with the demon’s corpse passed by, it fled without looking back and ran into the fields , causing a commotion.

“Animals are afraid of demons.” Charles looked at the cow. “Why? How did they feel about you?”

“The answer is ‘strangeness,'” Gladiu said.

“You know what I’m trying to say.”

“You want me to explain, of course, we’re from another world, so creatures in this world think we’re weird, we’re special, and it’s a natural repulsion that they can see, smell, hear. But humans It’s not the same, you yourself are changing yourself, freeing yourself from the state of primitive ignorance, your body comes from this world, but your mind is constantly changing, so that you have been able to acquiesce to the existence of ‘supernormal’ things, so that your own The change becomes justified. In the end, it becomes insensitive to our existence. It’s an exchange, you trade your wisdom for similarity to the world, and the question is, do you think it’s worth it?”

“Of course it’s worth it.” Wisdom is the sharpest weapon.

“Impossible,” Gladius shouted. “It won’t be sharper than the knife in your hand.”

“Speaking of which, you ate that demon’s soul, have you become stronger?”

Gladius hesitated for a moment, and Ciel realized that it was hiding something.

“I have something to say.” Charles urged.

“Eating one troll is equivalent to eating the souls of three mortals, and eating that winged demon is equivalent to eating the souls of a hundred mortals.”

“You can repair my injuries with the amount of a troll soul, which means that you can heal me more than thirty times in the future.”

“If you turn my strength into your fault tolerance, you will lose a powerful help,” Gladiu murmured, “After my strength becomes stronger, the most important thing is that I can take you to hell.”

“Hell? What are you doing there?”

“Of course it’s hunting demons, your favorite thing. You can make up the sheepfold, or you can take a bow and arrow to the forest to fight wolves.” Gladiu kept tempting Ciel, “Devils often enter the world, After plundering, they were driven away, so many demons have treasures that they found in the world, I will take you back to hell, weed out those weak, I will eat the soul, you will take the treasure, isn’t this plan perfect.”

“It’s empty, who knows what’s there, maybe you’re going to take me back and destroy it.” Ciel frowned.

“We’ve been working together for a while, aren’t we close and good partners? We help each other and meet challenges, and now it’s just another one.” Gladiu followed suit.

Never believe the devil, never forgive the devil, never forgive the devil.
