The Divine Hunter Chapter 28: Ending

In the courtyard of Kadel House, the moonlight illuminated four mutilated skeletons, most of which had slender bones and were dyed light yellow on the surface.

The principal, who had a white bandage wrapped around his waist and abdomen, turned his sharp eyes back and forth several times, and there was a trace of confusion on his face that was slightly pale due to blood loss.

“Why can’t I remember anything even though I’ve already killed the monster? Besides Tom, what are the names of these four children?”

“Although it was not mentioned in the notes…” Roy pursed his lips, “But I think this kind of forgetfulness is irreversible, even if the child hunter is dead. Only those who survive like Tom will remain Only the traces of the real world can be repaired.” The five-pointed star on Roy’s left sleeve returned to its original state.

Kadel shook his head, seemingly dissatisfied with the result.

“At least, we saved little Tom.” Roy said, “And from now on, the children in the school will no longer be threatened by monsters.”

It is amazing to say that one hour after the two took out all the bones in the tree hole, the tree hole at the root of the hornbeam tree closed again. At this time, Roy tried to sprinkle salt on it, but he could no longer summon the tree hole. The hornbeam seemed to have completely lost its magic power.

Roy had a vague feeling that the underground space where the child hunter ghost lived before might not be inside the hornbeam, but an alien space. Soon after the death of the Boy Hunter, the magic power to maintain the space gradually dissipated, making it difficult to find traces of the tree hole. He originally wanted to go back and cut out the tongue of the charred corpse. Oakes said, that thing is quite valuable.

But now it seems that there is no chance.

“How is it? Have you discovered anything new?” Vivien walked over from the house, her pretty face full of fatigue and sadness. The relative he was searching for so hard turned into a skeleton without a word, and even his memory could not be retrieved.

Two years of hard work seemed to be in vain.

“Can you identify these children?”

“I’m afraid not…it seems that forgetfulness is irreversible now.” Roy noticed the other party’s ugly face and said comfortingly, “Sister Vivien, ‘he’ has been freed from the devil’s cave in the tree hole, maybe he has entered We also avenged the prophet Lebioda’s country, recovered, um… his bones, and finally found a cemetery for him to bury. Don’t be too sad.”

Vivien covered her face, took a deep breath, and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, “Actually, when I saw the note, I guessed that he was gone. I just couldn’t accept it for the moment… But you are right. He His soul must have entered the kingdom of the prophet. I will find a good place for his bones to be buried.”

After a short silence,

“Let’s talk about something happy…how is that kid Tom?”

“I just gave him a hot bath and applied some ointment. He fell asleep again.” Speaking of the survivors, Vivien’s beautiful eyes finally had a little more light, “He was lucky, and his whole body There were only a few scratches and bites on his neck, and he had no memory of the entire process of being taken away. He only remembered that he fell asleep and woke up to see you and the monster…”

“The Boy Hunters will give him nightmares for a few days, but nothing else.”

“That’s good.” Roy glanced at the sky again, “Let’s talk about the rest tomorrow. It’s time for me to go back to the mill.”

“Wait, Roy.” Cardell suddenly asked, “Where did the bomb you used against the Boy Hunters come from?”

Roy noticed the expectation in the other person’s eyes and realized that this member of the revolutionary army must have the idea of ​​​​”Dancing Star”.

“That is a special alchemical bomb made by the demon hunter…” Roy lied, “Only those recognized by the demon hunter can activate it. It is a self-defense gift given to me by the teacher. This is the only one. It’s gone.”

“Really?” Kadel couldn’t hide the disappointment on his face.

……

Back at the mill, Roy found Toya by the pond. At that time, the girl was staring at the reflection on the water in a daze, her face was lonely, and her back exuded loneliness. Roy thought that if she were at Caddell House, she would definitely not be able to escape being preyed upon.

“Sorry, I’m late today.” Roy walked to her and sat down. The girl’s shoulders trembled, her round face showed uncontrollable surprise, and her voice was trembling slightly at the end of her words, “It’s okay. , I can understand… You also have work in the city, are you busy today?”

In fact, she was extremely scared in her heart. She always had a strong worry that the happy time in the past half month was just her illusion. Today, when she discovered that Roy had not returned to the mill on time, her worry reached its extreme, and her heart was filled with despair.

Fortunately, it was just a false alarm! He’s back…this friend really does exist.

Toya felt every cell in her body breathe a sigh of relief.

Roy shook his head, “It’s not because of work. During this time, I encountered a strange thing at Cardell House. It was related to the magic I mentioned last time, and it was also about the group of neglected children. , do you want to listen to it?”

“Okay!”

……

The next morning, after finishing his meditation, Roy woke up at four o’clock on time and first disposed of the body of the bald man in the space.

Then he rushed to the market in Edsberg City. Right here, at the herbal medicine stall where he had been working for more than half a month, he still had some accounts to settle.

However, when he squeezed through a bunch of bare-armed coolies and arrived at the herbal stall, he found that the building was “empty.”

Not to mention Tros, the stall owner who set up a game for him twice in the Lower City, even the shelves were demolished. It became an open space.

Reluctantly, he went to the barbecue seller Emil and asked… but the other party gave him an answer that surprised him.

“You asked Uncle Tross? I thought he told you that after setting up his stall yesterday morning, he left Edsberg with all his family and property.”

“Moved with your family?”

He has been operating in Edsberg for more than ten years, and he is willing to give up completely?

Afraid of me, a teenager?

It just doesn’t make sense.

“Who told you that he has been running a herbal medicine shop in Edsberg for more than ten years?” Emil was surprised. “He just came to the city and worked there for two months, not much earlier than you. Speaking of business, In fact, it’s not bad. Why did you move out suddenly…”

Who is this guy? Professional liar?

Roy pondered for a long time, only remembering his wretched smile, and felt inexplicably weak.

Just leave!

Since the work at the herbal shop has failed. He allocated more time in the morning to the poultry stall. After killing the monsters under the tree hole, his experience value reached LV2 (820/1000). If there was more business during this period, he might be able to increase it to LV3 in less than a week. .

……

In the afternoon, Caddell House was as peaceful as ever. The children played happily under the hornbeam tree, seemingly unaware that the boy staring lonely at the classroom door had gone and returned.

Those who are ignored are still ignored, and nothing has changed.

“Tom, go join them.” Roy touched the boy’s blond hair and encouraged, “You have escaped from the mouth of a ferocious monster~IndoMTL.com~Climbed back from the edge of death, what else? So scared?”

“If you want to be noticed and make more friends, you have to take the initiative to fight for it. Looking around like a fool will have no effect. Whoever dares to bully you again, the worst is to have a fight with him!”

Roy suddenly pushed the stunned boy into the crowd. Watching him blush and awkwardly greet the students around him.

Kadel came to Roy quietly. She didn’t look good. She was injured last night and it took her a while to recover.

Everything about the hornbeam tree and the monsters living under the tree was concealed by the principal.

The traces of the dead children have not been restored and they are still forgotten by the world. Even if it were made public, what else would it cause besides suspicion and trouble?

“This morning, Vivien and I buried the bones in a nearby cemetery.” Kadell paused and said, “There is one more thing. Roy, no matter what, because of your help, the school solved this hidden danger. Vivien recovered the remains of her relatives, and those poor children were brought back to light. I thank you on their behalf. I know the rules of the witcher… I will pay you a reward. How about 100 crowns?”

Actually, one hundred crowns is not enough for the material cost of Dancing Star. But this is probably all Kadell can give.

“This little money is not enough.” Roy glanced at the boys and girls running in the courtyard, and a soft spot in his heart was suddenly touched, “Exchange it for a meal.”

“Then please accept this gift, Roy.”

Vivien quietly walked out from behind Kadel, took off the silver pendant on her chest, and hung it around his neck

There is gratitude in the beautiful eyes, “Believe me, it will bring you good luck and blessings…”

Thank you to the King of Night, Zhuang Mengxin for your reward and monthly ticket support! thanks for your support!
