Hunter’s Blade - Chapter 47
[Demon Hunter’s Blade Chapter 47]
“Of course I know, I deliberately didn’t remind you, just to let you get this slap.”
“—You asked me to kill her. You made judgments without any reason in order to make me trust you unconditionally from now on. Kill all the people you said you wanted to kill.” Ciel keenly guessed the truth.
“What a damned guess, obviously because we are friends, so I always tell you the right way. Ah, why don’t you understand my justice! Your judgment is ignorant and naive! Just keep believing in the blade demon! From now on you There will be no doubts, no mistakes!”
Really?
Charles closed his eyes in pain, and no part of his body was in pain.
“Actually, I like watching mortals suffer. During the suffering, your confidence is gradually being polished, and you gradually doubt yourself, hate your decisions, question your actions, and watch your mentality change…” Gladiu’s voice repeated echo.
The guards patrolling at night ran over and saw Ciel.
“Who are you!” he asked angrily.
Hu… Hu… Ciel gasped, tried his best to get up from the ground, grabbed his own knife, and dragged it back to him.
“Put down the weapon! Or I’ll shoot!” The guard took out a light crossbow and aimed at Charles, “Don’t move! Kneel down with your head in your hands!”
“I’m—” Ciel felt a sore throat, blood all over his neck, “I’m a demon hunter.”
“Demon hunters are fucking criminals, throw your weapons away!”
“I’m a reasonable person, and I hope you are too.” Charles hugged his wounded arm.
Ciel’s tone softened the guard’s attitude.
“……what happened?”
“In that alley.” Charles panted and walked slowly to the narrow street where the spell was casted before. There were a dozen huge dog corpses lying in a row, including small monsters that were severely demonized. “Come and see, sir.” He Get out of the way for the guards and signal that you are harmless.
The guard came over suspiciously, glanced at the situation inside, and widened his eyes.
“So many dogs?”
“And it’s big, not an ordinary dog, you can tell.” Ciel wiped the sweat from the pain on his head.
“…Who killed these monsters?”
“I,” Ciel explained wearily, “…the recent murders must have something to do with these things…I saw a huge demon wandering the city. It’s going to kill people tonight, and we have to find a way to stop it.”
“It’s the hunter’s job to stop the demons!” the guard yelled, “What the hell!” He took another look at the piled up corpses, “…It’s scary…”
“Before you scare the civilians, you have to clean them up. Since you can’t deal with the demons, you should protect everyone.” Ciel turned his shoulders, and a slight movement was like tearing pain, “You are right, stop Demons are a hunter’s business…I’m going to destroy it, destroy the demon beast.”
It is as heavy as a mountain, as powerful as a dragon, with infinite stamina and extremely strong fighting qualities, and its whole body is covered with demonic qualities.
How can you hunt such a thing.
Chapter 60 Recruits
“What the hell is a demon beast?” Ciel asked in his heart.
“In order to better survive in other worlds, some demons make themselves the same as animals in that world, so as to reduce the world’s rejection of them. Usually they are cunning and vicious guys… but they are strong and cruel. Opportunity devours the soul and it swells rapidly.”
Ciel pondered how to fight.
“You can’t beat it–you can’t beat it!” Gladiu cursed the Ciel with impudence, but it only sharpened his faith.
Maybe I can’t defeat this beast, but I will find a way, I will find help.
Charles thought.
He turned back to the Hunter’s Sanctuary. Under the moonlight, the ancient Hunter’s Sanctuary was shrouded in huge shadows. The whole body was dim, like a silent black hill.
The front door was locked, and he pushed open the side door.
“I really want to know where you’ve been all night.” Ines stood in the door, she seemed to have been waiting for Ciel, with a complaining and impatient look on her face.
“Some trifles.” Charles stayed outside the door.
“You’re hurt…” She frowned, noticing the scars on Ciel’s body.
“Not feeling well.”
“‘Not very comfortable’, is a normal person dead now? Come in, we’ll help you see.”
“You?” Ciel stepped into the door and found some strangers standing or sitting in the side hall, “Who are you?”
“You are Lord Ciel? We saw your recruitment notice on the square.” One of the men explained.
is new!
Ciel was a little surprised. The recruitment revelation posted at noon, someone came to apply for the job at night, and the fresh blood of the hunter organization was slowly pouring in, which made Ciel feel a burst of joy from the bottom of his heart.
There will be new recruits, there will be adepts, there will be new professional hunters, and one day they will call the charr a master…
He glanced at the few people present, except Ines, there were three people who came to visit the church.
“Please introduce yourself briefly.” Ciel took the handkerchief that Ines handed over and wiped off the blood on his body. He also wanted to make a good impression on the other newcomers.
“I’m Du Wen from Qinghe,” said the man who first spoke. He had brown hair, sunken cheeks, a pointed and long nose, brown eyes, and tight lips, giving a very unpleasant feeling.
Ciel had seen several murderers and thieves look like this.
But they are demon hunters, so they shouldn’t be picky about their appearance.
Charles pondered a few questions that must be asked.
He believes that these three questions can sum up each other’s situation.
“what can you do?”
Du Wen looked to both sides, and everyone else was waiting for his answer.
“I…” He hesitated, “I can use swords and boxing. I used to watch games in taverns, and people thought I was good at it.”
“Are you afraid of demons?”
“If I knew what it was, I wouldn’t be afraid,” Duwen explained.
“Why join the sanctuary?”
“I’m new here, I have no money, I want to find a job, I just need a place to rest. I said, are you recruiting? There’s no need to be so strict.” Du Wen shrugged.
“It’s necessary.” Ciel turned to the next person, a young man with thick hair, straight cheeks, a straight face, looking vigorous, wearing new leather armor, but carrying a fishing basket and harpoon on his back , like a warrior and like a fisherman.
The young man raised Ciel’s gaze: “Where is Master Frederick?”
“The master is dead,” Ciel explained. “Now I am the master of the temple.”
“Dead? How did you die?” he asked.
“He died in the action of hunting demons. He died heroically and fought with all his strength.” He was murdered by Warren from behind, and he failed to even fight back.
“Then where did you come from?” He said badly.
Charles frowned.
“I’m a demon hunter. Are you here to recruit or to mess around? I have to rebuild the sanctuary from nothing, there’s no need for troublemakers here. If you want to join, obey my orders.”
This resolute attitude made the young man feel a lot weaker, and he was not as aggressive as before.
“I don’t want to work under someone younger than me.” He looked at Ciel suspiciously.
Ciel is still a teenager, and the other party is in his twenties, a mature and self-esteemed age.
“Enough. Answer my question. What do you know?” Ciel went straight to the point.
He feels that the stronger he is, the better, so that he can defeat those who are strong from the outside and work in the middle.
“…I can swim, I’m Madden from Sanwei Bay, I grew up in a fishing village, and then I can throw spears, there is a harpoon-throwing competition in the village, and I have a top three every year,” Madden said.
“Are you afraid of demons?”
“Scared, but Master Frederick is my hero! So I want to be like him, able to fight demons!”
Master Frederick was the most famous hunter in Upper Loman before he broke the Duskwood.
A pity… a pity.
“Why join the sanctuary?”
“I thought Master Frederick was recruiting, so I came.” He looked a little disappointed, “I always wanted to be like him, to be a demon hunter, to repay his kindness! But before that I always wanted to be like him! There is no chance, before, only the master led the apprentice, it is not as open as it is now.”
“You can trust me completely. I have inherited the Master’s last wish and the keys to the sanctuary. I am the inheritor of the hunter’s sanctuary,” Ciel explained.
“Really? Do you know Master Frederick’s piercing spell then?” he doubted.
Nuin sharp.
Charles thought silently in his heart.
“I can.”
“Prove it to me.” Madden raised his head.
“what?”
He took out a freeze-dried fish from the fish basket behind him and put it on the table: “This is what I brought into the city today.”
The frozen fish has been marinated and has no moisture at all, and it was refrigerated in an ice cellar somewhere. When it was taken out, the surface was covered with frost. It felt solid just by looking at it. ring.
Nuin’s edge, Nuin’s edge, Nuin’s edge… Ciel recited it repeatedly in his heart, this spell was taught to him by Gephne before he died, and Ciel has an excellent memory, and the rhythm of the spell is very firm in his heart. , will not be forgotten no matter what.
The eyes of all present were focused on Ciel. They had all heard of the powerful power of the hunter’s spell, which was the key to the hunter’s victory against demons, but they obviously rarely had the opportunity to witness a hunter cast a spell with their own eyes.
“The Piercing Charm can penetrate everything,” Madden said expectantly. “It’s Master Federik’s stunt.”
“Can you punch through something so hard?” Ines looked at the freeze-dried fish, “It’s fun.”
Demonstrating spells for everyone and proving yourself seems to be very meaningful.
Just…is it necessary?
With a calm expression on his face, Ciel took out the gray knife from his arms.
Before people could react, he made a neat swipe up and down, and the sharp blade chopped the meat into the case, leaving deep marks on the table, and the frozen fish broke open in response.
“It’s not a spell!” Madden exclaimed, startled for a moment.
“Of course it’s not a spell.” Ciel held up the sharp blade in his hand, “It’s a knife.”
“I want to see your piercing spell!”
“Spells are for dealing with demons, not for tricks, and never for proving anything.”
People stared at him in different ways, but in the end they unconsciously shifted their gazes to the table, the nicks were sharp and the gaps straight.
“Just do it!” shouted Gladiu. “Cut down what’s in the way with your knives, not with your trashy spells!”
“I never thought of it that way.” Ciel muttered in his heart, “I won’t drop knives, crossbows, spells, and potions.”
Ciel looked at the last unfamiliar newcomer. The man was fifty or sixty years old and wore a simple robe. It was hard to imagine that such a person would come to be a demon hunter.
“Why do you want to be a demon hunter?” Ciel asked.
“Ah yeah.” As soon as the old man met Ciel’s gaze, he quickly stood up and explained, “Sir, you misunderstood, I’m here to be a servant.”
“Oh.” Ciel thought that the other party was a hidden old warrior, but now that he looked closely, the old man was wearing rags, his skin was loose, his muscles were thin, and he could do some chores like sweeping the floor. The devil is really difficult for the strong.
“My name is Buddy, Buddy from Ash Tree Hall.” The old man continued, “My lord, I just want to eat, I can sweep the floor, clean the room, and I won’t steal anything.”
“I believe you.” Charles nodded.
