From Demon Hunter to Lord of the Empire

Chapter 19: The Demon Hunter’s Imprisonment…

“This time was an accident, it should have been a hearty and simple bandit, I’ll tell you more about it when I wait for dinner.” It’s going to be a great table story. Lane explained.

This old man may be one of the few elders in the world who really cares about himself, and although the old man’s nagging is a headache for most people, Lan is very useful. Even if he was coaxing, he still had to respond to the other party.

“However, I also took your words to heart, and I will be careful in the future.” ”

Ens nodded, whether this guarantee was true or not, but the ability to get a response also made him feel a little calm.

Or you can leave the heirs behind and then go on those thrilling adventures. ”

“Ahem,” Lane hurriedly said, “again, again.” ”

Lan stepped forward and touched Black Wind’s mane, and the smooth feel made him feel better. The old butler stared at Lan’s back inexplicably and sighed softly.

I don’t know what is in Ens’s mind, at least Lan is now full of thoughts about how to give the little girl a good enough gift in return.

…………

City defense army, dungeon.

On the blood-dried table were knives, straps, bottles and cans that could not be named, and in the middle were two swords with cat’s head weightballs.

Two sharp swords. A steel sword, a silver sword. The steel sword punishes the evil, and the silver sword kills the demon.

These were all scavenged from the demon hunter and belonged to Lan’s booty.

Rann looked at the table for a moment and reached for the steel sword. The mirror-like sword ridge reflected Ran’s side face, which he felt was a good return gift, enough to match the “black wind”.

But this shape and weight are not quite right, Ciri wields it and has to be slightly modified.

With simple sketches in his head, Lane couldn’t help but laugh.

“She’s supposed to like it, right? ”

Lan does not lack a good sword, and this steel sword is not one of those magical demon hunter weapons with special enchantment effects in the game, just a sword with a good material, which is equivalent to a new outfit in the game.

If you want to say precious, it may be that the materials and craftsmanship are more exquisite, but that’s all. The forgers of the royal court also had the ability to forge them. But Rann believes that the story of the “loot” and the process of obtaining it will make Ciri particularly enjoy the gift.

Compared to this steel sword, the other silver sword and the potions of these bottles and jars were not available in the circle that Rann had contacted, and Rann collected them well, intending to see if they were useful later when he was free.

Now, Lane has more important things.

In the cage behind him, Judd, the demon hunter, was bound to a wooden frame, and the wounds on his body were simply bandaged to prevent him from dying without interrogation.

An interrogator saw that Lan had finally finished counting the loot and set his sights on the demon hunter, so he cautiously stepped forward and proposed: “Lord Count, you don’t need to come personally for this kind of dirty work, we are all decades of fellows here…”

Len waved his hand, making it clear that no one else was needed here. The eye-looking interrogator quickly lowered his head and closed his mouth. It is not without nobles with quirks, not to mention the personal interrogation of prisoners, he has also seen those who took “prisoners” specifically for interrogation.

Inside the cell, hearing the sound of footsteps, the demon hunter raised his head slightly, with an unsurprising expression on his face:

“Noble boy, you really came…”

Lane looked around, pulled over a wooden bench full of dirt and sat down:

“If I’m in high spirits, maybe it’s time to say something like ‘I shouldn’t have come,’ ‘But I’m still coming.'” But time is precious, and I want to know a lot. So I guess let’s just get started. ”

“Huh… It sounds like that aristocratic contrived tone… It’s more like a dialogue that should appear in the bard’s poetry.

Lock me up here and heal my injuries without letting the interrogator come and interrogate. Obviously, noble boy, you have some little secrets that you want to get answered, but you don’t want others to know… Tell me, what is it? ”

Lan En smiled slightly: “I ask you just say?” ”

Judd laughed presumptuously: “Do I believe me when I say you?” ”

Lane nodded and confirmed, the master made a move.

“I’ve heard that the transformation of a demon hunter’s potion will cause great pain to the body, and the process of becoming stronger is itself a torture. In other words, your tolerance for pain is beyond ordinary people, right? ”

Judd smiled: “This is not something that ordinary people can hear, your ears are quite big.” ”

Even in prison, the captured demon hunter did not seem to forget to taunt Lan, without showing the slightest hint of weakness.

Lane wondered, “You don’t seem to be worried about what I’m going to do next.” ”

“Hehe, I know that you guys’ interrogation tricks are nothing more than using knives and iron. But you can’t imagine the pain, physical, mental… I had hope, but now it’s shattered. And your people have ruined my legs and hands, which makes it impossible for my already broken hopes to be rekindled. ”

“Hahaha, the reason why I stayed in this dungeon for so long and didn’t commit suicide was to see the expression of you noble brat who couldn’t get anything after exhausting his methods on me, the expression of anger and irritation. Tell me, noble boy, how are you going to pull something out of a man who has nothing! ”

The maniacal voice echoed inside the prison, and Rann couldn’t help but lean back to avoid the saliva sprayed everywhere by the demon hunter.

Lan smacked his lips: “I also heard that the demon hunters of the cat school are rich in madmen, and today it is indeed worthy of its name.” But…”

Lan suddenly turned around and pulled out the long sword, stabbed forward and nailed it to the wooden frame between the demon hunter’s legs, and then slowly raised the hilt upward, so that the long sword closed upward like a side knife, and the cold blade slowly stuck to the demon hunter’s skin.

“Are you sure you have nothing left to lose? ”

The demon hunter’s expression froze for a moment, and his breathing became heavier.

“You seem to want to be a tough guy who uses his few lives left to fight against power, and that’s not necessary. Because I’m not that kind of aristocrat and you’re not that tough guy. And as the leader of the bandits, I don’t know how many innocent you say such words, it will only make me laugh. ”

Lan only used two fingers to hold the hilt, he walked in step by step, and the sharp blade also rotated little by little and tightened towards the demon hunter’s lower body: “Of course, I must admit that you have rich life experience, every demon hunter who can be released from the castle is old enough to be my father or even grandfather, and you can definitely carry the general punishment, which I have great confidence in you – or in the demon hunter.”

But I’m also confident in my knowledge base, and it’s hard to imagine what mess I have—advanced knowledge. ”
