Hunter’s Blade - Chapter 33

[Demon Hunter’s Blade Chapter 33]

Yes, demons only have souls in their eyes, and they see things differently from humans.

High-level demons may have more developed senses, but this primitive and low-level little demon should not have developed such perfect functions.

“I’m your lord…then you have to listen to me.” Ciel felt like he was taking a sidekick.

“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.”

“Without my order, you can’t take the initiative to attack, you can only run away or hide, you can’t appear in front of humans, and you can’t leave this sanctuary.”

The kid nodded vigorously.

“Will it really be honest?” Charles wondered in his heart.

“It doesn’t dare to bargain with you. Imps are afraid of demons stronger than them, because they know they are the weakest. When I’m bored, I often gather the imps and stomp them with one foot.” Gladiu likes to bully Weak.

“What are you going to do with this kid?” Ines poked at it tentatively with the tip of the sword, and the kid made a dodging motion and fled flexibly, just like a small animal.

“It’ll come in handy, keep up.”

The insignificant little devil flapped his wings and flew behind Ciel.

“I have to give it a name.” Ciel twisted his hair, “A little devil…” There are a lot of ideas, you can call it wings, woo woo slag, claws, and so on.

“There is no need to bother to name the little ghosts. They are nameless, have no names, and have no ideas of their own. They are all consumables. A conflict in the sphere of influence in hell will damage hundreds of thousands of little ghosts. When the little ghosts are in hell, they will be with you. Just like the poor people in the world, they live insignificant and die in ignorance.” Gladiu sneered.

“Do you have a name?” Ines took the tip of the sword and pushed the kid with the hilt, deliberately bullying it, forcing it to flap its wings vigorously to prevent it from falling.

“My name is Hope,” said the kid.

“You have a name yourself?” Ciel was a little surprised, “You named it yourself?”

“Woooo scum. Hope.” The kid nodded.

“These little guys have their own names.” Ciel reminded Gladius in his heart, “You also said that the little devils have no names.”

“Fuck, who cares!” Gladiu scolded.

Ciel realizes what’s wrong with Gladius.

“Hey, you guy, you don’t fully understand your demons.”

“I don’t care what the other demons have to do with me!”

“I probably know why you were exiled into this world by the monarchs of hell.”

Gladius was silent for a long time.

“You don’t understand,” it said reluctantly.

Chapter 42

Charles continued to explore the rest of the sanctuary.

The part above the prison is for hunters to stay.

The circular staircase zigzags upwards. There are several individual bedrooms on both sides of the corridor on each floor. Each floor has a hall with different functions. However, it has been looted, the fourth floor is the library, the door is locked and can only be opened with a silver key, thus avoiding the attack, the fifth and sixth floors are empty and have not been used.

Sweaty, he climbed to the top of the tower, opened the door to the lookout with the silver key, and stepped into the darkness.

This is the highest point of the sanctuary. Looking around, the night sky is full of stars and the bright moon hangs high.

Charles rarely enjoys the night in a relaxed mood. He feels that every night is dangerous, with monsters and evil beings hiding in places where the sun can’t shine.

He saw the dark city streets and alleys. A demon beast escaped from the temple and was wandering in the city. This thought made him feel alert, where is it hiding?

Who do you want to attack?

It was this looming sense of crisis that made Ciel dare not relax. He had to find a way to find the location of the beast and destroy it.

At the same time, there are a series of trivial matters, church repairs, debts, recruiting, and many other interpersonal issues, and he is uneasy with all the threads. Where do I start?

How can you avoid failure?

He inherited the Hunter’s Sanctuary with unrealistic ideals, and didn’t know the weight until the burden was on his shoulders.

In front of him, the darkness of the Ash Tree Hall was spreading, and faint lights were flickering in the thousands of households. There were many windows in the Earl’s Castle, and the guards on the fence were patrolling with torches, and the light spots moved back and forth regularly.

It’s a little cold, maybe it will snow tonight.

He put his hands on the edge of the sanctuary lookout, and there was a cold wind blowing towards him from the heights, and his hair swayed in the wind. This was a rare quiet time for him for many days, and his body and mind belonged only to himself, not to the surroundings. all the hustle and bustle.

But Ciel knew that it would be too selfish to indulge in this moment of tranquility, and he still had to fulfill his obligations.

Many times he couldn’t live as himself. He thought of the hunters. Master Etienne still remembered his teachings. If Denver hadn’t entered the forest, he should have been a kind and happy child, and Mr. Julius would still maintain his confidence. Take it easy, not to be hung upside down on a big tree.

He thought of the crazy Warren, the timid Dalton, the self-doubting Master Frederick, and finally, the suicidal Gephne, with a pain in his heart.

It’s my fault, I shouldn’t have let the Blade Demon escape, if I chose to die with the Blade Demon that day, Gladiu would be gone.

“Hey, I can hear you.” Gladiu scolded, “You can go to the rooftop to take a cool break, why can’t you go with me.”

“Make everything worthwhile,” Ciel whispered. He made a voice instead of just letting his thoughts stay in his heart. “Make my choices worthwhile, and make everyone’s deaths worthwhile.”

“They don’t value these things,” Gladius retorted. “They’re just chained to their heads by the dogma of hunters, and they’ll work hard to the point of dying if they know they’re not up to it.”

“Don’t fight if you can’t fight? How can there be such a thing.”

“If you can’t beat it, you still have to fight? How can there be such a stupid person? If you can’t beat it, you should run away, surrender, bow your knees, and give up the principle. As long as you continue your life, what will happen in the future is still unknown. You and I are just upholding This idea survived.” Gladiu didn’t budge.

“If you do it again, I will die with you.”

“You like this? You like me to torture you? Ciel! If you really decide to destroy me, jump out of here now and you’ll be shattered and I’ll be devoured by kings, but both of us will be destroyed, this That’s what you want! Come on, jump off!” howled Gladiu.

Charles caressed the railing with his hand, which was covered with wrought iron patterns.

“Hey, if you have something to say, don’t be ridiculous, you want to die, but I don’t want to die.” Gladiu was frightened, and the sharp edge on the copper thorn immediately became blunt and rounded.

“Other people will pick up the silver key from my body, and a hell demon will be annihilated.”

It’s really high here, Ciel’s visual observation, from here to the ground, I don’t know if it’s dozens or hundreds of meters, or maybe more than 100 meters?

He was not sure, if a person jumped from a two-story building, he would break his leg, and what would happen if he jumped from a seven-story building?

“You’re crazy! Don’t think like that! Life is precious!” Gladius shouted.

Charles shook his head.

“The time has not come.” Ciel said softly in his heart, “There is still an unfinished mission.”

He turned to find Ines standing on the stairs.

“When did you come?” Charles was a little surprised.

“You feel like a different person,” Ines teased. “You are sometimes as innocent as a child, and sometimes more silent and serious than anyone I’ve ever met.”

“That’s me.” Charles didn’t know where to start.

Violating the rules and saving a demon, I still don’t know if it’s right or wrong.

“Do you mind if I go up?” Ines walked to the rooftop before Ciel’s consent, leaning on the railing to look at the night of Ash Tree Hall, “This is the highest place in the city.”

“The Earl’s Castle is built on a hill, and it should be seen farther from the top.”

“It’s not easy for you hunters to build such a place.”

“I don’t know, maybe we were so wealthy that we built such a good church… Have you seen the rooms on each floor? It can accommodate hundreds of people if you change each room into a sanctuary. If three or four people live, nearly five hundred people can be stationed here. Is this a sanctuary or a barracks?”

“For now, no offense, it’s just a rubbish dump,” Ines said lightly.

“I have enough confidence.” Ciel stretched out his hand, and the whole city fell asleep under his palm. He vaguely liked this feeling, “Let’s build an extraordinary business.”

“Have you considered asking for help from churches in other areas? Maybe they’ll send you some money or something.”

“No, the journey is long, and the West Coast Sanctuary is separated from here by several territories. The situation has been uneasy recently, and it may be difficult for messengers to arrive safely.” Charle thought of the trolls blocking the bridge, which had long been hired by adventurers and hired during the peace period. Soldiers hunt and kill, it is impossible to do good for several years there.

“By the way, are there any procedures and systems for joining you?”

“There is only one requirement to become a demon hunter, a firm will.” Ciel thought of Etienne’s teachings.

“It just sounds like it’s going to make this place a paranoid meeting place.”

“Indeed,” Gladius muttered.

“If you think it can’t be done, then I haven’t thought about anything else, but you see, there are too many things to be busy with, I want to repair the wall and strengthen it, but no workers are willing to come here, they say that this place is a Cursed Dangerous Place.”

“If you want to join you, you have to do something, how? In this way, even if the people who come are mixed, at least they will help.”

“Sounds fair.” Charles nodded. “How can you help?”

“I think I can fix the wall. I don’t want to somehow become a demon hunter, I should give something in exchange for your trust, and that’s how I earn it,” Ines explained.

“You have earned my trust.”

“Why?”

“You are Etienne’s daughter.”

“Always remember that I am Ines from Rain Bay Hall first, and then that person’s daughter.” She looked half-smiling.

“right……”

“Of course I have heard about Etienne. Luoman has received his favor all over the place. Seven years ago, he destroyed the largest gathering of dark wizards on both sides of the Qinghe River, and four years ago, he killed a demon pioneer in Redwood Mountain. How righteous. Unparalleled, a person of great merit… It’s a pity that I haven’t seen him at a glance since I was born. Etienne has always been a romantic, handsome and irresponsible person in my mother’s description. I have thought many times, if my mother After he died, he still didn’t come back, so I killed him myself and asked him to accompany my mother. It’s just that he died before my mother and took her away. This is a bit disappointing to me. ”

“I’m very sorry.”

“For my mother? She can’t hear. For me? I can go my own way. Lord Shire, I have a small request.”

“Please say.”

“As I said before, the purpose of my joining the Hunter’s Guild is to get training. I saw your library on the way up. There are a few places that have not been looted by thieves. The door is locked. You should be the only one who can open it. You Can you allow me to read inside?” Ines smiled.

What a dangerous woman, she knows exactly what she wants and what she should do, and Ciel can only give in.

“You are a member of the sanctuary, of course.” Charles nodded.

“Very good.” Ines nodded with satisfaction, “Let’s go down to eat.”

“I have cold meat and wine…”

“The sanctuary is our home, and we should eat something hot at home.” Ines led Charles down, “I was shopping outside just now, the butcher shop was not closed, and there were people in the market who still haven’t returned home. farmers.”

“You cooked?” Charles was surprised.

“Otherwise, why did I come to find you? Lord Ciel.” Every time Ines addressed Ciel with honorifics, Ciel felt ashamed.

“Yeah.” Charles nodded, “The sanctuary is our home.” From now on, it will be in the future.

They came to the restaurant on the first floor. The table had been cleaned up, and there was a deep iron pot on it, which was full of potato soup, and a large piece of pork leg was thrown into it to add flavor.

The little ghost Hope was crawling around in the corner of the dining room, suddenly jumped out, grabbed a lewd mouse, stuffed it into his mouth and ate it, presumably the rat infestation was resolved ahead of time.

Charles served himself a bowl of soup, which was delicious, and he might have to eat two or three bowls.

He was scouring his stomach for the right words to praise Ines’ craftsmanship, and Gladius began to babble again.

“Eat fast… eat more… eat more… recharge.”

“Why? Don’t do anything else at night.”

“You don’t want to, I want to. My strength is restored, and I’m going to take you to hell,” Gladiu murmured.

“Hell?!” Charles couldn’t think of it at all.

“There is no refusal. We will go in and make a scene. Those demons have invaded my territory, and I will make them pay the price.”

“How do I get to!”

“You can become a demon.”

Chapter 43 Into Hell

Most of the rooms in the Hunter’s Sanctuary are empty, with only wooden bed frames, empty wardrobes and tables and chairs. Ciel doesn’t know if the thieves stole everything, or if people didn’t decorate it well at all, He leans towards the latter.

Charles suspects that at the beginning of the design of the sanctuary, people mistakenly thought that everyone would actively join the hunter organization, so many empty rooms and beds were prepared for it.

He lay on the bed with his hands flat on his chest.

“Sleep, sleep, intelligent creatures are most likely to separate their consciousness from their body in a dream, and I will take you to hell in your dream.” Gladiu said.
