The Divine Hunter

Chapter 45: Leave and return

  Chapter 45 Leaving and Returning

   November 6, 1260.

  Roy is wearing a thick khaki cotton coat, sitting on the edge of the roof of the Walls Pub, his feet hanging down in the air, and a painting in his hands.

  There are two smiling faces painted together, Roy, Toya.

  On the day of November 1, he secretly took the girl to the big house of the dwarf wine merchant without telling the miller and his wife, and enjoyed a luxurious and luxurious New Year's meal together.

  The scene at that time is especially in my mind.

The two were full of honey, sang another mess of songs, modeled for the crappy painter, and a group of bearded dwarves walked around the bonfire in the middle of the courtyard, holding hands, and dancing the Mahakam feature in the middle of the night. The "melting pot dance".

  The next day, Toya, who woke up from the first hangover in her life, was sent to the carriage to Eritusa.

"Roy, when I get there, how should I contact you in the future?" Before leaving, the girl leaned out of the carriage window and grabbed his arm. Her small round face was weeping, her eyes squirting. Excitement, anxiety, and nostalgia flashed within.

"The demon hunter has no place to live." Roy patted the little girl's head and joked, "After a few years I have the opportunity, I will visit you in Eritusa, and hope you can perform for me. Perform real magic."

   "That's OK!" The girl's voice was naughty for the first time, "When I get back to normal, if you don't come, I will go to the world to catch you!"

  ……

  Remembering, Roy put the portrait into the space and pinched the silver necklace between his neck.

  Not long ago, he completely finished the course of Cardale House, and bid farewell to Vivien, Tom and Cardale. The principal didn't know what to think about, and the revolutionary army completely disappeared recently. Perhaps the leader's body scared some of them.

  Edsberg’s New Year was very peaceful, without any parades, demonstrations, or street fighting.

  The mill room was returned by Roy. He abducted the daughter of the miller and his wife, but did not leave a son for them as punishment for the abuse of their daughter. If two people want to settle accounts with him, then come here as long as they can find it.

  Work in the market, Roy does not intend to continue. The study of common words has come to an end. He has a vocabulary enough to understand the contents of the Demon Hunter's notes, and he is ready to concentrate on conquering the above potion formula.

  He got off the roof and entered the lobby of the tavern, an inexplicable sense of familiarity came to his heart.

  ……

  The New Year has passed, but the carnival atmosphere in the pub continues.

  The bard in pointed leather shoes and striped bodysuit leaning against the wall fiddled with the lute and played a melodious melody.

  A group of sturdy men on the dance floor, holding a glass of beer with white foam in their hands, catering to the music, wriggling their bodies recklessly.

With hops splashing, lights and shadows interlaced, several women with heavy makeup wear corsets, exposing a large area of ​​white skin, carrying a bloated tutu skirt, and occasionally cursing a few irrelevant words in a man's molesting. , And then smiled again and again and stretched out the hooking fingers.

  In the corner of this hot pub, there was a figure out of place. The four people in front of him had a table full of dozens of glasses of different colors and full of drinks, but he was the only one toasting.

  Under Reso's bright bald head, a staid face made him look like he was in a claustrophobic room. The burly figure carrying a long sword was like a rock, carrying a coldness that no one would enter.

  "A person drinking boring wine here? Let me accompany you..." Amidst the laughter, a moving body was pressed against the man's right arm.

  Reso glanced at the woman sideways, his familiar smile defrosted his expression a little, "Sorry, I'm not interested today, I will take care of your business next time..."

  "You are so ruthless. You have become so productive after not seeing you for more than a month... I still remember your strong body."

   "Hehe, how hard your arm is, relax, leave everything to me..."

  The woman leaned her head on his shoulder with a sweet smile, and suddenly craned her neck. She noticed pieces of blood on the other's leather armor that had dried up for a long time, but still exuding a strange smell.

  But the demon hunters are like this, and women are not surprised.

  Looking down further, the ground on the right hand of the Demon Hunter placed a huge package that was bulging and seemed to be about to split. On the blue surface, there seemed to be a trace of scarlet wetness, so he asked curiously.

  "What's that?" As he said, he stretched out his hand toward the parcel, but he was firmly controlled by another muscle-knotted arm just halfway through.

   "Woman, control your curiosity, don't ask if you shouldn't."

  Reso's tone was still flat, but the strange warning in her eyes made the woman feel like a mouse when she saw a cat, her body trembled, and she got up anxiously.

  She pursed her lips, and especially unwillingly took a look at the demon hunter, "I don’t recognize anyone when I put on my pants, don’t want me to accompany you next time! Humph!"

  After finishing speaking, he fled into the dance floor and laughed with other men.

  Resso is also not annoyed, a woman can always only be a passer-by in his life, a spice.

  He suddenly felt something in his heart, and the amber pupils crossed the dance floor, and instantly collided with the sight of the opposite person.

   "Little devil, have we not seen you in a year? Why do you jump so fast." The demon hunter looked at the young man who came by, and stroked his chin with his thick palm. The keen perception told him that a great change had taken place in the child in front of him. From the beginning, the thin body became well-proportioned and full of vitality, and his eyes were black and bright, his face was ruddy, and his spirit was obviously higher than before.

  It takes half a year to a year of uninterrupted exercise for ordinary people to produce such a huge change in their physical fitness. And the boy in front of him, from leaving Kaye Village to today, it was less than two months after he was fully paid.

   "I remember not seeing you for more than two years, one month and two years?" Roy sat down beside Resso, took a glass of sweet and sour fruit wine, and took two sips. "How about, I have lived alone in Eddesberg for so long, have I passed your test?"

   "You can live a good life alone." The Demon Hunter nodded.

  Roy’s gaze was projected on the strange package that the woman had noticed before, and the nose twitched like a hound.

   "Leave me for more than a month for this thing?"

   "Guess what, what's in it?"

  Resso's eyes showed a test of light.

   "Although you have handled it properly to get rid of most of the peculiar smell. But the irritating smell can't help me. The package contains...um...the organs of the monster, right."

  Reso threw the package over. Roy caught the package in a hurry and opened a seam. He shook his arm and almost didn’t drop the thing on the ground——

  The first thing that catches the eye is a big eyeball, the size of a fist, and the surface is treated smooth and dry. You can touch the back of the eyeball with your hand, and you can also feel the slender scarlet-like nerves and capillaries like sandworms.

Roy looked around and saw that no one was paying attention. He stuffed his eyeballs in, and carefully took out a yellow velvet beast claw from the package. The bottom of the beast claw was covered with a cat-like elastic cushion. Three sharp toes protruding from the front end, shaped like hooks, are pitch-black in color, and have a hard texture to the touch, and their length is equivalent to an open palm of a human being.

  Roy can almost imagine how this claw can easily cut through the leather armor of the human body and cut out the internal organs.

  In addition to the eyeballs and claws, there is an oval heart in the package, a **** beast skull with a long brown lion’s mane and a long beak.

  "Gryphon Beast..."

  The huge package is filled with the most valuable body tissue of the Griffin Beast.

  Roy's lips moved slightly,

  "It took more than a month to hunt down a griffin beast? Is it for me to prepare a prodrug?"

  He was a little touched, this guy actually went to single-handedly challenge the Griffin Beast.

  Gryphon is a monster such as arrogant, difficult to entangle, quick smell, strong body, and its claws and beak are comparable to steel, yet there are no obvious weaknesses. There is a fatal danger to any witcher.

  Roy is a little bit regretful, not to mention personal participation, if he can witness the battle up close, it is also a kind of precious experience.

"Are you hurt?"

   "Although the process has twists and turns, the result is perfect." Resso shook his head, "Let's go, I will teach you how to break down this pile of materials, and by the way, see if you have been lazy recently."
