Hunter’s Blade - Chapter 65
[Demon Hunter’s Blade Chapter 65]
“Idiot, how late is it?”
“Maybe the first half of the night, maybe the second half of the night.” Charles thought about the past, present and future, “Where will we go?”
“Why did you suddenly mention this?”
“I don’t know.” Ciel thought of the laws of the world, of human affairs, of social values, “I feel like I’ve become a man.”
“You always have been.”
“It wasn’t, there was a time when I was confused.” Ciel stroked her hot body with his hands, infinitely young and delicate, her body was close to Ciel, and many places were wet with sweat.
“Aren’t you confused now?”
“I don’t know why, but the world has suddenly become smaller in front of my eyes.” Ciel felt that his mind was brighter than ever, his thinking was clear, and he was particularly sober. “It seems that everything has lost its challenge, and my thinking is beyond everything.”
“Why don’t I feel that way?” Alicia complained. “You’re making me sticky.”
“Maybe in the future.”
“Hehe.” Alicia smirked.
“what?”
“We’re so dirty and messy.”
“I’ll do it a thousand times in the future.” Ciel got off the bed, came to the window, and looked at the silent street. The dogs didn’t come out to kill, and the witch seemed to have disappeared after the battle.
Alicia coughs.
“It’s so cold.”
Ciel looked around. It was a simple room with new furniture. He looked at Alicia, who was small and thin, and couldn’t help feeling distressed.
“…It will be very hard for you to accompany me.” Ciel sighed.
“Will we be happy?” Alicia’s voice sounded sad. “Will we really have a good life in the future?”
“Definitely.” Ciel climbed into the bed and hugged her, “I swear it will, Alicia.” No matter what it takes, I want us to be happy.
The night glided by like water, they were exhausted and fell into a deep sleep, and Shire’s dream was full of salacious images that continued unfinished.
It was a clear and sunny day until the strong sunlight shone through the window and shone on them, waking them up.
Ciel got up, and when the light was sufficient, he could see Alicia’s body more clearly, delicate and delicate, slender and soft.
Alicia also looked straight at Ciel, wondering what she was thinking.
In unison, they did not speak, but silently dressed and kept as warm as possible in the cold air of a winter morning.
“I’m ready.” Alicia jumped out of bed and helped Ciel put on his armor and coat.
“People say I’ve changed.” Ciel looked at Alicia. “What do you think?”
“I don’t care.” Alicia shook her head.
“It’s amazing,” Charles murmured, “it’s amazing… when we’re talking here, everything is still working, tens of millions of little devils are dying in hell, and Count Rene is on his way to the west coast. , witches are plotting dark schemes somewhere in the city, people in the sanctuary pray for safety at night, fishermen at sea are worried about storms, farmers are logging in the forest… Alicia, whenever I think of this, will realize how small we are.”
“don’t know.”
“I mean,” Ciel hugged her gently, “Grey Tree Hall is also a place not worth mentioning. Outside this city, there is an infinite world waiting for us to explore. We should go to the west coast and go to Qinghe. , go to the imperial court, go to the legendary city-state around the sea that is full of gold and silver… When I think of these, I feel excited – there is such a big world for us to see.”
“Anywhere, as long as you’re there.” Alicia shook her head.
“I am honored to have the opportunity to know you in this vast world. One in tens of thousands of mistakes will make us deviate from the trajectory of our destiny.”
“Hmph, what are you talking about, I’m a loser, and you’re an idiot.” Alicia curled her lips, still gloomy between her brows.
“Never again,” said Charles.
Ciel took Alicia’s hand and walked downstairs to the dining area on the ground floor. Ines was talking to Kryushi, talking about Shirin’s health. She turned to see Ciel and Alicia, her eyes Couldn’t help but fall into their hands.
“Yo, Lord Ciel.” Ines greeted Ciel in a strange tone.
“Good morning.” Ciel nodded, “I’m going to Sanwei Bay. During this period, the church affairs will have trouble for you.”
“What are you doing there? Sanwei Bay is full of fish, otherwise it’s a scale dragon.”
“A witch asked for help from the sanctuary, and I suspect it may be overdue, because the letter was sent some time ago…but I still have to check the situation, the hunter needs the support of the witch,” Ciel explained.
“Oh.” Ines was a little absent-minded, and couldn’t help but glance at Alicia, “Oh, congratulations.”
“Congratulations for what?” Charles was a little confused.
“Oh, um.” Ines responded in a perfunctory manner, then said goodbye to Kryushi and walked out.
Alicia made a face at Ines’ back.
Kryushi was not wearing a helmet today, and his forehead was bald. He touched his long beard, glanced narrowly at Ines, who was far away, and then turned to look at Charles.
“Your Excellency should share some more love,” he said.
“what?”
“As the saying goes, people don’t worry about being infertile, they only worry about being unbalanced.”
Ciel didn’t quite understand, so he could only change the subject: “How is Xilin’s situation recently?”
“At the instructions of Mr. Carlusson,” Kliuchy said, “we try to protect her as much as possible. Miss Celine seems to have no obvious reaction to any external stimuli, but she is lucky to take care of herself every day.”
“Where is she now?”
“In the restaurant, shall we go over together?”
They came to the restaurant, and people gave up the main seat to Ciel. He glanced at everyone at the table, everyone who should come, except Luo Dan.
“Where did Luo Dan go?” Charles asked.
“He volunteered for a vigil yesterday.” Madden peeled an apple with a knife. “Everything is safe. Now he sleeps in his room.”
good boy.
Charles nodded.
“We’ll set off for Sano Bay after we’ve eaten.” Ciel picked up the bread from the plate.
“That won’t work.” Madden shook his head. “Sir, you need to make some changes. Otherwise, the fishermen will definitely drive you away.”
Chapter 82 Sanwei Bay
Ciel took out another 10 gold coins to Alicia.
“Buy more delicious food, buy some furniture, buy new clothes, don’t treat yourself badly.” Ciel instructed.
“What about you?” Alicia thumped him, “You’re going out again, when will you be back?”
“I’ll look for you as soon as I get back,” Ciel said briefly, and Alicia looked at him as if she wanted to say something but didn’t say it.
“Then I’ll wait for you.” Alicia waved her hand and walked away.
If you can go hiking with her and watch the sun rise…
“Impossible.” Gladiu interrupted Ciel’s fantasy, “Go to work, go to kill.”
“No hurries.”
“There must be a lot of people and monsters stopping in front of you along the way, so you can kill as much as you like! Don’t have any concerns, you can kill enough so that I can eat enough.” Gladiu’s tone was evil.
Madden changed his outfit and came over. He was wearing leather armor before, but now he has a fat green wool coat over the armor. It looks very heavy, and with his carefree expression, he looks like a complete countryman.
“We’re going to make a change, my lord.” Madden patted his clothes.
“Why?” Charles was confused.
“It’s not okay to break in rashly and resolutely. Force is strictly prohibited there.”
“Forbidden force? Is there no one to maintain law and order?”
“Lord Rene only values the Ash Tree Hall. Our village is legally the fief of Lord Rene, but he let us take care of ourselves because we are too poor. But in order to prevent us from causing trouble, he took away all our weapons. .”
“What if you are in danger? Like a monster…”
“We can only use harpoons and sticks.” Madden shook his head. “We can only follow the trend. If you walk in with a knife like that, everyone will be afraid.”
“That is to keep a low profile and not let them think I am a threat.” Ciel thought for a while.
“Yes! My lord, our people are also very xenophobic. If they talk nonsense, don’t get excited, that’s everyone’s habit.” Madden nodded.
“What about the fishing and merchant ships?”
“The merchant ships go directly to the port at the Ash Tree Hall. We can only catch fish, but there are pirates in the Blue Island. Our ocean fishing boats have been useless, the bottom is broken, and they are getting poorer and poorer. It’s good to be able to eat in the offshore waters. Now, the taxes are hard to come by.” Madden complained.
The Blue Island is a large island in the north. Xia Er vaguely remembered those vicious pirates. They were born in a poor place, and they were on an island. Can fight back to win and avoid falling to fate.
But pirates continued to plunder, and coastal towns like Ashtree Hall were particularly affected.
Scaled dragons were another trouble, the charr knew that they were a kind of wyrm-like creatures that were very good at moving in water, swarmed, smart, and even wielding weapons, and humans were in their recipes.
Ciel and Madden left the sanctuary. The refugees left after sunrise, leaving some garbage and embers in the brazier. Fortunately, there was Buddy to clean up, so there was no need for Ciel to bother. Probably this is the function of an organization, Ciel Never have to worry about everything.
He bought a cashmere coat and a felt hat at the ready-made store for 15 silver coins, and a soft leather waistcoat, an ochre-colored cloak, and the knife was hidden in the cloak. So lean, he looks more and more like an ordinary country man, and he is inconspicuous in the crowd.
“This will allow you to go to Sanwei Bay.” Madden nodded, “No one will doubt it.”
“Are you a fisherman there?” Charles and Madden left the city together.
“Most of the time, yes.” Madden recalled the past, “the sea has always been scary, I once stood on the tidal flat, there was a person in the distance, dragging the boat, desperately walking to the shore, in a hurry, in a big way as I walked. Called: ‘It’s high tide!’. I didn’t react at that time! I felt that the sea was dry, the ground was full of wet sand, and there was no water to see, what was the threat? But after a while, the sea suddenly came from afar It surged up, it was scary, it filled the shore, and it knocked the man down in the water, and the volume disappeared. So I can’t be a good fisherman, and I always get scared when I look at the sea, afraid that it will swept me away too. If Listen to my father’s words and be a fisherman, sooner or later I will fall into the sea…”
“So you changed careers and became a demon hunter.”
“Yes.” Madden said, “Demon hunters are at least a little better. We take care of our own business and go our own way. We won’t be pushed around by the waves like we are at sea. The harvest is all rewarded by the gods.”
Then you are dead wrong.
Charles thought.
Demon hunters also rely heavily on luck.
After the witch attack, the streets of Ash Tree Hall were particularly desolate, the number of guards doubled, and everyone was in danger.
There were people chanting and selling small wooden statues of gods, beggars and homeless people standing in the streets, staring grimly at everything around them.
When passing the market, Shire saw that there were fewer farmers selling winter vegetables, butchers and charcoal burners were reluctant to enter the city, and the stalls reserved for them were empty. Gotta starve and freeze.
The chaotic situation is getting worse, and in this case, it is very easy to fish in troubled waters.
Ciel had no doubt that someone was secretly planning something at this time.
I have to get ahead of them and solve the problem.
Charles thought.
But I need people, people, more people, and funding and intelligence sources.
If the witch in Sanwei Bay can be found, she should be able to provide considerable help. The potion can cure diseases and save people, enhance people’s strength and fighting spirit, and increase fertility. The witch herself can perform divination and explore the truth from the emptiness of fate.
Leaving Ash Tree Hall and sloping toward the bay, the road narrows, the forest grows thicker, and the snow thickens.
At the beginning, there were still houses and country taverns on the road, proving that this was still a civilized world, but after walking ten miles, Ciel felt like he was back in the wilderness.
Strangely, there was a rustling movement ahead.
Ciel saw a figure running quickly through the forest, very strange, and Madden noticed it too.
“Who is that?” Madden clenched his harpoon. “Who would that be? A monster?”
“Maybe it’s an ordinary person.” Ciel distinguished carefully, walked quickly into the forest, looked around while leaning on a tree, and saw a man in rags hurriedly walking, “Stop him.”
“Hey! Stop!” Madden yelled.
The other stopped, leaned his back in front of a tall-ridged maple tree, and watched them both warily.
“What do you want?” He drew out his hatchet.
“Wait, I’ve seen you.” Madden discerned. “You’re a Wieger man, aren’t you?”
