Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 404
"Is this what you got from this trip? That's really a big surprise."

Crow hunter Erin happened to meet Lan En walking back from the Forbidden Forest while wandering near the Healing Church Cathedral.

Now the two of them were on Henryk's left and right sides, each holding one of his hands as they walked towards the Orton chapel.

At this time, the crow hunter was raising his finger and pointing at the huge blood-red moon in the sky, his tone unintelligible.

"Are you sure you've never seen a big moon like this in all the times you've gone back?"

Lann carried most of Henryk's weight, but he didn't feel it was too much of a burden.

On the contrary, this kind of psychological pressure of not knowing whether he has done something good or done something bad with good intentions is the reason why he is struggling now.

"Never."

Eileen can also feel that the entire atmosphere in Yanan has become more sinister and weird because of the red moon above her head.

The lycanthropic patients on the road showed more deformed body features, the patrolling Sumeru Church guards, and the religious weapons in their hands made strange changes that were never seen before.
It was as if under the illumination of that scarlet moon, the world that was originally invisible to ordinary people began to appear.

And the 'originally invisible world' is by no means a beautiful and peaceful place.

But Eileen's tone was still a little more relaxed.

"This is a good thing, Lan En. At least in my opinion, weirder and more aggressive monsters are much easier to deal with than mindlessly repeating them for a long time."

"Time is starting to move forward again, which at least means that we still have hope of getting out of this night. Even if the road is more rugged and difficult, at least there is a way."

"We're here, let this old guy lie down and have a good rest."

Just as he was talking, Orton Chapel had arrived.

The sight of Lan carrying Henrik in frightened Viola and the two little girls.

He could only comfort him softly, saying that Henrik was accidentally knocked unconscious by the sleeping potion and that he would be fine if he just slept.

This answer was a relief to the Gascoignes, who took Henrik to their shelter in the chapel, where they guarded him.

Another person came to the chapel, a blond beauty with gorgeous appearance.She sat on the chair and bowed in Lan En's direction in a friendly manner.

This must be the woman to whom he informed the location of the chapel in the church town.

Irene was already standing by the wall next to the red-robed witch, leaning against the wall.

Lan En walked over, and there were three people in the chapel who had stayed awake while constantly going back in time.

The red-robed witch didn't seem to be popular in Yanan, at least Lan En didn't see anyone approaching here.

So as long as the three of them lowered their voices, they could have a private conversation in this small church.

Lan En first confirmed with the red-robed witch that there had never been a red moon in Yanan's past recollections, nor had there ever been such a strange and dangerous atmosphere.

This was indeed an unprecedented change caused by him.

Time has indeed begun to flow.

The red-robed witch thought the same as Irene: no matter what, change is a good thing.

They have wandered back in time for too long.

“This has become a sanctuary for so many people, and it’s all thanks to you.”

The red-robed witch suddenly spoke sincerely to Lan En.

Although her eyes were cloudy and white, she still tried hard to find Lan En's direction and thanked him.

It's strange that there is someone like her in Yanan.

One person helps others, but she, who has never been helped, is thanking the helper who has nothing to do with herself.

Lan En turned his head awkwardly and said polite words like 'nothing' and 'you're welcome'.

On the one hand, the young man was a little embarrassed to be thanked so much. On the other hand, her red robe reminded Lan En of the great sage of the Mechanicum in [Memory Diving].

But for the red-robed witch, being able to clearly identify Lan En's direction was the limit. It was impossible for her to see the strange expression on the young man's face.

"I'm so happy. You make me feel useful!"

The old voice contained a sense of joy at finally being recognized, as well as sincere gratitude.

This strong emotion even allowed Lan En to get rid of the impression of Belisarius Caul's red robe at this moment. "You have done so much, and you have been kind to so many people. This is amazing, really! Not only because you are a hunter, but also because of your character, hehe."

In the end, he seemed to subconsciously feel that it was wrong for someone like him to speak like this to the hunter, as their status was not equal.So the old man could only end with a shrinking sneer.

"It's just, it's just... it's probably a bit presumptuous to say that."

The red-robed witch said carefully and tentatively.

"But is it possible for us to become friends after dawn?"

"We are already friends." When the red-robed witch shrank cautiously, Lan En squatted down, shook her hand with her skinny and disfigured hand, and said softly.

"You took care of them here too, those survivors. We helped them together, so we're already friends."

"But I'm a little ashamed to be called a 'friend' now because I'm leaving soon."

Erin was leaning against the wall on one side, standing with her arms folded and her head bowed.

After hearing Lan En's words, she raised her beak mask.

"Oh? Are you going back to your world?"

After speaking, she expressed her understanding without waiting for Lan En to respond.

"It seems that your 'departure moment' has arrived. That shouldn't be under your control, right? That's good. You've done enough. It would be wise and safe to get out of this mud pit as soon as possible. "

The red-robed witch looked at Lan En with no change in her expression. She was still sincerely grateful.

Although Erin wore a mask, she didn't want the witcher to stay here and face trouble.

"Don't think too much, kid. This is not your responsibility in the first place. Just leave when you have to."

Lan En nodded silently.

"I will leave, but before I leave, I have to tell you the information I know. Although the retrospective of this night is over, it is still very long."

Lann whispered about the message Master William gave him.

The desire of the ancient gods for the Son of God, the antagonism of many ancient gods intertwined with desire and jealousy, the followers who follow them, and this nightmare constructed by the ancient gods
Both of them quickly accepted the fact that they were in a nightmare.

After all, the current tragic situation in Yanan can only be described as a 'nightmare'.

In this night of endless hunting, no matter how shocking the news is, it becomes acceptable.

After explaining the information he held, Lan also said goodbye to the Gascoigne family.

He also took off his full body armor and handed it over to Gascoigne and Henrik.

Wearing only the Gascoigne lining that he had worn during the previous break.

Most of this set of Advanced Bear School armor has been stained with the blood of the superiors from Spider Rom.

Lan En didn't want this kind of blood to flow into his world, and even if the armor fit well in terms of size, it was time to replace it.

It's time to say goodbye to it.

The witcher said goodbye to his new friends and walked back to the place where he first arrived outside of Yharnam.

The blood moon in the sky was huge. Lan En took out the resonant bell from the alchemy leather bag that was said to be able to 'let the ringtone penetrate dimensions', looked at it and then put it back again.

Time will show a wonderful state in nightmares, and he will always have the opportunity to return to Yanan and face those ancient gods with lofty vision.

Finally, under the blood-red moonlight, the witcher disappeared into a scene like broken glass.

In the Orton chapel, Viola gathered up the heavy armor and placed it in the box next to her.

Perhaps this thick armor produced outside of Yharnam can help the two hunters she cares about in the future.

{Witcher armor: The armor of the stranger who came to Yharnam at the beginning of the hunting night was stained with large pieces of blood that seemed to the Yharnam people to be extremely sweet.

Can provide excellent defense and various resistances, but at the same time reduce speed and agility.If the user's strength and endurance are insufficient, the speed and agility will be greatly reduced.

In terms of shape, it is undoubtedly an old antique.Thick and sturdy, it seems to be made of beast materials that Yharnan does not have.But the style of this equipment really doesn’t match the hunters.If used forcefully, I'm afraid it will only become a drag.

And the blood stained on that armor. What did its previous user kill? }
