The Divine Hunter

  Chapter 32 Distorted Talent

  In the evening, Roy returned to the mill to take out the hot kebabs and put them at the door of the warehouse, knocked on the door, and then went into the living room.

  At the dinner table, Roy mentioned Vivien to the Henk and his wife, and their descriptions were basically the same as Tross.

  He tentatively tried again, why didn't he send his daughter to Cardell's house.

  Toya is young and has a physical disability who belongs to a disadvantaged group. Kadell’s House might accept this student. However, the two couples could not afford the tuition fee, and decided that Toya's brain was not bright, it was not that.

  Roy has a deeper understanding of the bottom line of the two couples, so he doesn't say much.

  Having had dinner, he accidentally found a visitor before returning to the room.

The oil lamp hanging on the wall illuminates a petite figure, standing with his back facing him in the doorway, slightly squatting, shoulders high and low, carefully wiping blueberries, and then carefully placing them on the bucket outside the door. .

  After doing all this, she breathed a sigh of relief and was about to return to the warehouse, but as soon as she turned around, she saw the figure behind her.

  She was stunned in place, her small round face, her happy smile instantly solidified, and then she dropped her head helplessly, and she began to tremble.

   But this time she did not run away.

  "Toya, don't be afraid, I'm not malicious..." Roy smiled as mildly as possible, and kept a long distance from her instead of walking over it recklessly. "I just want to say thank you to you, the fruits you sent in the past few days are very fresh and delicious."

   "You..." The girl was silent for a few seconds, then took a deep breath, as if she had made a great determination, and said, "Are you not afraid of me?"

  The voice is as crisp as an oriole bird, with a little girl’s innocence and tenderness, as well as overflowing tension.

   "Why do you ask?" Roy deliberately stared at her, "I think you are no different from other girls..."

  Toya's breath was suffocated, and her heart seemed to stop beating. No one had ever said this to her, and even her dearest father had never said the words she was most looking forward to.

  As if sand rubbed into the eyes, a sourness came out.

  Roy continued, "The low-ethical stinks only know how to run around, make trouble, prank, and make fun of others. And you have begun to take care of livestock and poultry, take care of gardens and fields, and you support yourself with your hands."

"You are amazing," Roy smiled familiarly, "I think it is necessary to formally introduce myself. My name is Roy. I am about the same age as you. I am the son of a farmer in Posada. He just came to Edsbo. Grid soon. Toya, you accepted my gift these few days and made a gift in return. Then we are friends."

"Friends?" Toya felt that this term was out of her reach... When she was very young, she had a few friends, but since her body had a problem, the ugly hunchback became more and more obvious, and those friends gradually became alienated. She, even avoiding her like a snake and scorpion, can hardly remember the appearance of those friends, and now her mind is full of vicious expressions of others ridiculing, cursing, and sarcasm.

  She did not dare to expect to make a friend.

  The fire illuminates her bewildered face, and Toya enters a state of emptiness, but unknowingly, her tight body relaxes and is no longer full of guard.

  "Why don’t we chat in another place? Don’t be nervous, it’s just some daily topics, such as...what did you eat for lunch?"

  Roy's eyes searched everywhere, and the moon rose in the sky. Right next to the clearing where he sweats like rain every night, the surface of the pond was rippled by the night wind, and the silver gauze of the moonlight swayed softly and became hazy.

  ……

Roy noticed that the girl was sitting down by the pond not far to his left, and he was relieved. He thought that the other person would run away directly, because he had never touched such a sensitive girl before, and he was worried that he would touch the other person. Wound.

  But finally successfully took the first step.

  The girl is obviously very uncomfortable with this kind of scene. She lowered her head, her fingers began to twist in a cramped ball, her eyes afraid to look at the boy next to her, nor to look at her reflection in the pond, as if it were some monsters.

  "Toya, take it easy...Let’s do it, have you ever seen a magic show?"

   "No...what does magic mean?" The girl asked this question very carefully.

   "Similar to tricks. Know the tricks, right? I'll just show you one now. Look carefully!" Roy gave the girl a bit of commanding surprise, and instinctively looked over.

   "Don't blink..."

  Roy stretched out his right hand, showed the empty back and palm face to the opponent, and then began to turn his wrist, one circle, two circle, three circle...

Toya read a few silently in her heart, and then opened her mouth slightly and her sullen eyes widened. A delicate card suddenly appeared in Roy's empty palm-the face of the card was a woman with a red hair and a red dress. The fire is as enchanting and beautiful, and there is a mysterious temperament lingering all over his body.

  Roy continued to spin with the card in his right hand. After a few laps, the card disappeared without warning.

"Roy... how did you do it?" The girl's attention was completely drawn to the past, just an extremely lame trick, but she has never left Edsberg since the day she was born, let alone have a chance to see Any trick, "Where did you hide the cards?"

   "The principle is not working. Come guess where I hide the card?" Toya really supported her chin when she heard the words, letting her long brown hair fall to the surface of the pond, she thought seriously.

  At this moment, she forgot the inferiority complex and anxiety.

  But Roy strode suddenly to a place beside her (0.3 meters), interrupting her contemplation.

  The girl froze, cold sweat emerged from her forehead and pale cheeks, her heart beating like a beating, but not for shyness or other reasons, but pure tension and fear.

  Long-term abuse experience always made her feel that people close to her would torture her, either beating or spitting.

   "Sorry... I scared you." With apologetic eyes, Roy spread his hands and took two steps back, until the girl's breathing returned to normal and "come back to life" again.

   "I just want to come over and find the card."

  He pointed to the girl’s white apron,

   "Toya, believe it or not, now that card is lying quietly in your pocket."

  The girl hesitantly touched her pocket, and then on her palm covered with calluses and frostbite, there was an extra card, the one that appeared in Roy's hand.

   Regrettably, she is illiterate and can't recognize the woman's name. She can see the lifelike woman on the card...The slim figure and beautiful appearance, she can see the gods, and there is a little envy and longing in her eyes.

   "Isn't it interesting?" Roy said, "This card is for you."

   "Why?" Toya was puzzled. The herbs and food that the other party gave her in the past few days have made her flattered, "I can't take it, it's too expensive."

  "This is just an ordinary Gwent card," Roy said truthfully. "Most pub shopkeepers can buy it. If you feel uncomfortable, you can send me some fruit tomorrow."

  Toya was holding the cards, her face full of dismay, for a long time, "Then...well," she put the precious cards into her pocket. "Who is the woman drawn on the card?"

   "Sabina Griwig, a female warlock in the capital of Kodwin, Ad Kale."

   "Sorceress?"

"Trust me, you will understand this in the future. Now, let's talk about something else," Roy sat down beside her. This time, the girl no longer had the strong rejection reaction she had before, perhaps for relaxation. She followed Roy gently, shaking her feet gently.

  In the "moon ship" on the water, there are two more passengers.

   "What do you usually do in the mill?"

   "In addition to what you said, we also need to feed pigs, clean, and weed the crops in the field..."

   "Oh, you are so young, you shouldn't bear so much..." In fact, a teenage girl either married or had to help with farming at home, but she did not have as much pain as her.

   "Do you have any hobbies? Painting, singing, dancing, Gwent cards?"

  "I don’t know how to use Gwent cards, probably...sing? But I dare not. Una would scold me for singing as bad as a rooster crowing.

  Other people will laugh at me. "

"Don't listen to their nonsense, your voice is very suitable for singing..." Roy praised sincerely, "If you go to another big city, you may not be able to be an opera actor. It's too late now, when I have a chance, I Is it an honor to listen to your singing?"

  ……

  The two talked about daily life. Most of the time, he was telling and asking questions. Toya listened quietly, occasionally interjecting a sentence, and the answer was short and slow, but Roy still digs out some useful information.

  Her hunchback is not natural, but a mild symptom suddenly appeared eight years ago, and then worsened year by year. Her mother was so worried and died five years ago, and then the mean fat woman, stepmother Una, came.

  Toya's life has since fallen into endless manual labor, and her father has gradually alienated her.

  ……

  Roy felt fear, helplessness, and confusion from her answer.

  And Toya could feel that the other party did not see the disappointment or disgust of the father, the hatred of the stepmother, the discrimination and contempt of the children and the surrounding residents. It is full of patience and consideration.

  She felt a long-lost word...respect.

  Since the death of her mother, Toya has the desire to talk for the first time. But not today, the moon has risen higher, and time has quietly passed by for an hour.

   "Roy, are you really...willing to be friends with me?" She patted her skirt and stood up. The bright moonlight was so close that she could see the bulge of her back and the high and low shoulders.

   "You are wrong," Roy smiled heartily, "We are already friends."

   "Then can I chat with you tomorrow?"

   "Of course, as long as I return to the mill, you are always welcome to come to me."

  The girl let out a long sigh of relief and limped towards the dilapidated warehouse.

  Roy watched her leave.

Skill:

  Dharma source (passive solidification): Self-awakening, chaotic energy is the sensitive person of magic, favored by the elements of earth, flame, water, and air, and the body absorbs magic spontaneously all the time.

  After professional and systematic training, be able to manipulate magic, release magic, and achieve challenges that are difficult for ordinary people to complete.

  ……

  Roy remembered what Resso said when he was teaching his meditation: After the sensitive people awakened, if they were not sent to the Warlock Academy in time to receive warlock training and domesticate the power of the elements, they would go crazy because of the loss of magic power, and their reason would collapse. Or fall into a more miserable end, the body is tortured into ugly deformities by magic.

  Apparently Toya, the miller’s daughter, is one of the unfortunates. The heavens gave her a talent for magical power, but he didn't teach her the way to restrain this power. The deformity of the girl's body is undoubtedly caused by the out-of-control magic power rushing through the body. If left alone, her life span is much shorter than that of ordinary people.

  Roy was indeed out of sympathy at the beginning, but now that he has more thoughts, he cannot become a warlock, but it does not prevent him from making a future female warlock, which is a long-term investment.

  I haven't made a few friends with the caster, so what qualifications do you have to call yourself a demon hunter?

  But the situation is more complicated, he has to plan, step by step.
