Hunter’s Blade - Chapter 340

[Demon Hunter’s Blade Chapter 340]

“Understood,” Elijah whispered.

“Claire.” Charles found it interesting, “It seems that you are the more suitable successor.”

“Master, the cause of hunting demons is too great for one person to inherit, and I can’t do it for me,” Claire said.

“That’s why I built the sanctuary,” Ciel said. “There are countless times as many demons as we are, and they know how to cooperate. But I didn’t expect Ines to do such an amazing job.”

He turned to Ines, who seemed to be getting better, and looked at Ciel in silence.

“Do you think Ines deserves to die?” Ciel asked Elijah. “Those who hurt the people are judged by the people, and those who divide the church are decided by the people of the church.”

“I don’t know,” Elijah said. “I stabbed her, but I regret it later, and I regret it now. Seeing her lying on the ground, she may not be able to walk for the rest of her life.”

“Where’s Claire?” Charles asked.

“Damn her,” Claire said.

Ciel pulled out the lotus and walked towards Ines.

“Ah!” Claire was startled, “don’t—don’t!”

“What?” Charles asked.

“Although I hate her very much,” Claire said, “but seeing you really swipe at her, I don’t think…that’s the case. She should live, live to make up for her fault!”

Charles sat next to Ines.

She raised her hand gently: “Charle… I miss you so much…”

“You don’t have the right to say this now.” Ciel knocked off Ines’ hand, “Let’s count the mistakes you’ve made.”

Chapter 419 Talking

“Why surrender to the devil?” Charles asked.

“Because you lied to me,” Ines said.

“What are you lying to?”

“You said that you could stop the demon invasion, but no, the invasion still happened, and it was fate, it was destiny.”

“There is no destiny.”

“How do you judge?”

“If there is destiny, then why do we live? We can lie flat at birth, do nothing, like animals, and wait for destiny to lead us to the slaughterhouse, to the dinner table, or to wait for a natural and man-made disaster to completely destroy us. .” Charles said.

“The future is already set,” Ines said. “Hell is so powerful and boundless. Compared with hell, our world is smaller than dust. Destruction is inevitable. And we have fixed physical factors since birth. A fixed family, a fixed educational background, these things will give birth to our future, all the choices we make have been foreshadowed a long time ago, and now it is, because I am different from you, so we will eventually change. like this…”

“I can probably observe an interesting phenomenon,” said Ciel, “When a person is lucky, he will dismiss the rhetoric of fate and feel that everything is the result of his own struggle, and it is all about skill. , but when a person begins to encounter bad luck, bad luck, and things go wrong, he becomes pessimistic and doubts whether there is a preordained arrangement in life.”

“Just like you,” Ines murmured, “you always win, so you don’t trust fate.”

“You said the opposite, because I don’t believe in fate, so I always win.” Ciel said, “I said fate doesn’t exist, because everything has great randomness, and life is impermanent.”

“Isn’t that… more pessimistic than me?” Ines was confused.

“If I have the power, I can seize it when the time comes,” said Shire. “I look for a power that I can trust, and even if I have a great source of energy in my heart, I never trust it, I look for only Power for myself.”

Ciel reached out to Ines.

The purple divinity, the red divinity, the white divinity, and the fourth golden oath power circulated in his hands, running alternately.

“Divinity…” Ines opened her mouth slightly, “Four strands?”

“These are powers that I can trust, and I’ve purposely sought them out,” Ciel said. “It turned out to be the same as I expected. If I rely on powers that I can’t control, I’ll be swallowed up by it, and only my own power is. Down-to-earth, the gift of the devil will always hide evil intentions.”

“What choice do I have?” Ines’ eyes dimmed, “I also want power.”

“You have used strength before, and now you have to pay for strength,” said Ciel. “We can never go back, and there has been an eternal rift in our relationship. Because, you bow down to hell. , a traitor to the human world.”

Ines felt nervous for the first time.

“Are you going to kill me?” she asked.

“After the reorganization of the church, people will decide whether you deserve to die,” Ciel said.

“Why don’t you make the decision yourself? You can’t bear to kill me, you’re saving me a chance.” Ines said.

“You are Master Etienne’s daughter,” said Charles. “Without Master Etienne’s teaching, I would never be here in this capacity. I owe Master too much, and this is the only thing I can do. repayment.”

“Then what about my own reasons? Is it because I do my best to take care of the church when you are adventuring outside? Is it because I work hard to handle internal and external trivial matters and organize people? Is it because you still remember the relationship between us. emotion?”

“Yes,” said Charles, “but I’m too ashamed to talk about that.”

“Very good,” Ines said, “…”

“Why don’t you keep talking?”

“It’s just a waste of your patience,” Ines said.

“You understand too.”

“My dignity doesn’t allow me to kneel down to you for forgiveness like everyone else does,” Ines said. “But my integrity doesn’t allow me to continue talking to you about the past. I don’t deserve it.”

“very good.”

“I’m sorry,” Ines said.

“What are you apologizing for?”

“Because I led people to betray you, because I took refuge in the Demon God of Wisdom, because I sacrificed boys and girls to the devil, because I went against the brothers in the robe, because of my hypocrisy and… shamelessness for so many years.”

Ines sighed.

“What does the Wisdom Demon God look like?” Ciel asked.

“It is hidden in the portrait of the original hunter. If there is the image of the original hunter, there is it. It and the original hunter are one and two sides, and the twins coexist. I don’t know how. It exists in the hall of Arrow Rain Fort. Part of it is there and communicates its identity,” Ines said.

“You will lead people to worship it day and night?”

“I’m sorry, but it will give us new spells, many powerful spells, each new and interesting… Would you like to learn it?” Ines said.

“According to the clues I have, the hunter’s spell itself is not a clean thing, and I will gradually ban people from using the hunter’s spell.” Ciel said.

“It’s too late, I accepted the demon god’s orders and taught them to everyone around me, I don’t care how they use them, whether they use them to kill people or do bad things, we just spread them widely, and they keep repeating them. Spells are taught to others, the use of spells is spreading…” Ines said.

“You really gave me a big problem,” said Charles.

“You don’t care about me,” Ines said.

“Adults should have the ability to care for themselves,” Shire said.

“Where did you learn these qualities from?”

“Master Etienne taught me a lot.”

“Thanks to Etienne, I know how to care for others, but I can’t heal myself,” Ines said.

“why?”

“Because I have been taking care of my mother since I was a child, she is suspicious, she misses Etienne, she thinks about him crazy, but he never goes back, hysteria is with her, she sees everything as Etienne, crazy about it , howling madly when the attack is better than ghosts. Do you know how I and she died?”

“You said you died of illness.”

“The people in the village couldn’t stand her cries, and when I wasn’t around, they dragged her out of the house and beat her to death,” Ines said.

“I’m very sorry.”

“That’s the impression Etienne, the open-hearted hunter, left on his only daughter,” Ines said.

“He’s tortured by delirium, he’s a hero.”

Ines looked at Ciel for a long time, tears flashing in her eyes.

“If Etienne spends a tenth of what she thinks of you on me, why would I be like this?” she said.

“The past has made us who we are,” Charles said.

Charles saw that her eyes were wet.

“Why are you crying?” Charles asked.

“Do you remember what I said to you before?” Ines asked. “Our agreement?”

“I remember,” said Ciel, “that you asked me to call you Ines of Rain Bay Hall, not Etienne’s daughter Ines, nor Ines Hisui.”

“And yet,” said Ines, “after all these years, I still can’t get rid of the mark.”

“People live with signs,” Shire said.

“You talk about people a lot, what’s so good about people? Did you spot a pattern? Whenever people rallied and responded, it always started with ‘Aah’, ‘Ooo’ mixed with ‘That’s great’ ‘It’s horrible’, they don’t understand anything, they’re a rabble.”

“People make up society, and society determines us,” Shire said.

“You can’t rely on them, they can’t be trusted, they’ll just go away,” Ines said.

“So someone needs to lead them and awaken their hidden power.”

“What power?”

“The power of forging ahead, the new, high-spirited power.” Ciel said, “I read the history books, the rise and fall of dynasties is more and more, it is people who make up history, and history has its laws. Why does a powerful demon hunter appear? Because the devil is invading this world, there is oppression there is resistance, the devil attacks us, then people like me will emerge from the crowd, and it is they who have elected me.”

“They don’t make any sense at all.”

“Is it pointless?” Ciel silently drew out another bright golden divine fragment, which was different from the previous four powers.

“The fifth ray of divinity… Wouldn’t it form a glow?” Ines was in a trance.

“It’s not enough to form a true divinity. This is the expectation, belief and support of the vast crowd of me, to meet people’s needs, they will be surrounded by their own simple beliefs, they will converge into the embryonic form of divinity, things like that I’ve seen it before, and they think I’m the savior, so the divinity of the savior will start to heal, it’s complementary.”

“What have you been through?”

“I was born in Weimo. I started out as a peasant’s child, a sacrifice of demons, a recruit for hunters. I looked up from the bottom and saw many things along the way. Nobles were taxed heavily, demons killed and hunted souls, and gods themselves were trapped. No matter what. Well, someone has to do something about it, no one does it, I do it, it’s that simple.”

“It turns out that I’ve been going the opposite way.” Ines sighed, “We wanted to take shortcuts, but we thought you were too slow and dull, but I didn’t expect you to be down-to-earth.”

“Order breaks down over time, oppression and contradiction exist all the time, and people’s demands are hidden in their hearts, accumulating over time, like a volcano. People have breathed for centuries under the oppression of unscrupulous aristocrats, supernatural forces and terrifying demons. , finally broke out at this time. I looked down on nobles, I looked down on demons, and I looked down on the old gods of Loman, so I came back, I want to guide them, remind them how powerful they are, and burn their anger to the twisted haze of the old order , to build a better world,” Shire said.

“Sounds good…” Ines whispered, “I want to… do something for your career, really.”

“But you’ve used up your chances,” Charles said.

“I know, I don’t ask for it, I just regret it…”

“According to people’s demands is the right way, doing the wrong thing, and even joining with the devil is the wrong way. This is a very simple truth.” Ciel said.

“You are Loman’s hero,” Ines said.
