Blood of the Hunting God

After all, the hunter can only piece together the two people who no longer exist from the memories of others.

"Because of my existence, they will choose to take risks, Mr. Hunter, I killed Uncle Jason and Aunt Liz, right?"

Then, the hunter heard the thin voice of the girl beside him.

"I'm just a dying person, and existences like me abound in this country."

"I never deserved to be helped like this. In times of suffering, I am a burden that should be left behind, am I not?"

"Mr. Hunter, do you think kind people like Uncle Jason and Aunt Liz are worth losing their lives for someone like me?"

Is she asking herself?

It seems that this is not the case.

The hunter could tell that this little girl already had her own answer.

A girl who doesn't want to accept the disappearance of people she knows like this, doesn't believe that she is worth saving, but she can't do anything about it, she can only keep silent.

She would speak to herself here, did she choose to confide because she did not want to be silent?

The hunter, who is not good at words, just shook his head slightly in the end.

"Mr. Hunter, you seldom speak. Abby has always been speaking for you."

Blinking, Blanca, who rarely showed a bit of curiosity in his expression, said in a low voice.

Abigail speaking for herself?That's true, but she has been staying on the third floor, and she and Abigail are either on the first floor or in the bedroom on the second floor. How did she hear the voices below?

"My ears are much better than the average person."

"Because I can't leave here, I can only see and hear farther than others, so I won't be ignorant."

"Whether it's Mr. Hunter, you stopped and ran away at the gate during the day, or Abby ran out in a hurry to find you, or you and those children just now, I can hear you clearly. Diss Uncle Ma always thought he could hide it from me, but I still heard the sound of him smoking in his room."

The girl who said this looked at the distant wilderness again. "

"I can always see far and hear far. I don't know if this is the god's compensation for my fragile body, or a more sinister punishment."

"Because no matter how far I see and hear, I can't go there. I can only be trapped here, trapped in this dying body."

"I sometimes wonder if I can be a bird, can I get rid of everything, I imagine that my body is just a thin shell, after pecking, I can fly into the sky, spread my wings, and Go where I can't go."

"But I still can only stay here, feeling my own weakness day by day, sometimes I hear my heart beating like someone is knocking on the door and wanting to come in, I am thinking, what will happen to me?" Could it be the god in charge of death, who is coming to take me away?"

"If possible, before the day I'm taken away... I... Cough cough! Cough!"

It seemed that because of the wind getting stronger, the cold girl suddenly coughed up a big mouthful of blood.

Her breathing became short and difficult, her body also trembled slightly, beads of sweat oozed from her forehead, and her whole face showed a sickly pale feeling.

Realizing that the girl could no longer stay on the balcony, the hunter walked over to push her wheelchair, and quickly pushed her into the room.At this moment, Mona also came in from the door. After seeing the hunter, she bent down to salute, and then walked up to pick up Blanca and put her on the bed firmly.

"Cough...cough..."

The girl, who was getting worse and worse, was speechless at this moment.

"Breathe, breathe slowly, it's alright Blanca, you'll be alright. Ah, Master Hunter, please close the balcony door before you go, now this child can't blow the wind, don't worry, I'm here to take care of her Nothing will happen."

Softly comforting the sick girl, Mona did not forget to ask the hunter for help.

The hunter, who didn't have any medical skills, closed the balcony door, and then closed the door, and just returned to the corridor, went downstairs and returned to his room.

Abigail, who had fallen asleep with the bear doll in her arms, lay on the bed on her side and quietly let out unidentifiable cries.

The hunter sat down on the bed beside him, looked thoughtfully at the dim starlight projected from the window, and finally lay down on the bed without saying a word.

Want to be an Asuka girl?

Amidst the circulating thoughts, the night gradually deepened.

Chapter 51: Little Satisfaction

Starry Sky Town's investigation of the sewer hadn't ended on the second day, so the Hunter's Hall didn't carry out commissioned work.

In other words, the hunter has become idle.

Disma seems to have gone to the workshop again, and will not return for the time being because he wants to customize new firearms.Tadif has not yet come out of the cell. It is said that he and several people in the cell next door scolded him all night, and he is still very energetic until now.Apart from these two people who he still knew well, the hunter couldn't seem to find any other familiar locals after thinking about it.

There are no commissions, no assignments, nothing pre-arranged.

Seriously, he became idle.

This feeling of fishing without finding something to do made the hunter feel a strong discomfort.

He has always had a clear goal of action, either to kill monsters or to find all kinds of things. In short, the hunter who always has a direction to go, now there is a temporary situation where he doesn't know what to do, which makes him really quite nervous. Out of fit, unacceptable, troubled and confused.

But soon, as if he had noticed the hunter's situation, a small figure quickly approached him.

"Mr. Hunter, can you go out with me for a walk?"

Abigail, who changed into a vibrant sky blue outfit (provided by Aunt Mona), approached with a cloth bear and held the hunter's hand.

Well, in this way, I found something to do.

The hunter who nodded, then pulled the little girl out of the yard and onto the street.

At this moment, the two were holding hands, one big and one small silhouettes echoed each other under the moonlight, and shuttled among the bustling crowd.

It seems that because the police hired hunters to investigate the sewers, recently many hunter teams did not go to the corruption field, but gathered inside the town, making it more lively than usual.

Abigail, who was somewhat afraid of the crowd, instinctively approached the hunter, almost holding his hand and following him cautiously, but soon, she opened her eyes wide again after smelling the fragrant scent, and subconsciously looked at the hunter. past.

It is an open-air shop that sells barbecue. The cut beef and mutton skewers are grilled on sticks and sprinkled with seasoning powder. For the little girl who has had a rough meal for two days.

Speaking of which, I used to eat barbecue all the time when I was in Fengrao Town, but the barbecue at that time did not have any seasoning at all, basically it had no taste.Will there be any difference in this kind of barbecue?

A little, a little curious.

No, no, you can't cause trouble for Mr. Hunter. Mr. Hunter's money should be spent on more important things.Such small snacks and other expenses should be avoided.Yes, it must be avoided.

Of course, Abigail immediately suppressed her thoughts and restrained the child's greedy side.After all, the money in the hands of the hunter was obtained through life and death. If she used it just because she saw something delicious and wanted to taste it, Abigail would not be able to accept this kind of thing.

But obviously, the little girl didn't know that her tangled expression had already been noticed by someone beside her.

Without hesitation, the hunter directly pulled Abigail to the booth.

"Hunter, Mister Hunter?!"

Abigail, who hadn't expected the hunter's move, let out a panicked sound.

"Oh, beef skewers cost one copper coin, and lamb skewers cost two copper coins. How about some?"

The owner of the stall grinned and asked, while the hunter took out the money on his own.

I'm going to eat some skewers, do you want some?

Until this time, the hunter turned his head to look at Abigail, asking for her opinion with his eyes.

"Woo...that's too cunning, Mr. Hunter."

There was no way to say any rebuttals, the little girl could only sigh and took the meat skewers handed over by the hunter.

I always feel that some of my little thoughts are more and more easily seen by hunters.

The girl who was thinking sullenly took a bite of the meat skewer in her mouth.

"Ahh... delicious!"

Dipped in salt and chili powder, the grilled meat can overflow with fat after one bite.

This kind of thing has more flavor than monster roast and rice porridge.

Subconsciously, like a real child, Abigail showed a happy expression.

Then, she felt that Mr. Hunter was holding her hand a little harder, leading her to another place.

"Mr. Hunter?"

Abigail noticed that the hunter was obviously on purpose, and curiously followed the hunter's footsteps.

Then, she was led by the hunter all the way to another street not far away.There are no taverns on this street, so it seems a little deserted, but the hunter who seems to have inquired about this place in advance looked around for a while, and then found his destination, a very ordinary-looking building, a The building looks like a store.

Abigail was led into it by the hunter. After stepping into the store, she was surprised to find that it was actually a pastry shop.

"Oh, you are the hunter that Mr. Disma mentioned before, right? The biscuits you ordered are here. Thank you for your patronage with 3 copper coins."

Until the waiter took out the packaged biscuits and handed them to the hunter, and then took the money, until the two of them left the shop and sat down on a bench by the roadside, Abigail blinked before seeing Biscuits in the hands of hunters.

"Is this... bought for me?"

The girl asked cautiously, and the hunter nodded very casually.

"Could it be, it's too precious, I mean... I'm very happy that Mr. Hunter bought me something, but, take your hard-earned money

Used to buy biscuits..."

Will it be too extravagant?

It's really not good to spend money on yourself, right?

Abigail knew that the hunter was raising money to customize the weapon on the blueprint, but at this moment she saw the hunter buying snacks for herself.Although he was a little overjoyed almost immediately, but when he thought that this was the hunter's life-and-death battle and killed a lot of monsters to get the money, he cringed and felt that he didn't deserve this kind of treatment.

Stretching out his hand, the hunter gently touched the little girl's head.

The current hunter can already control his strength well, ensuring that he won't accidentally pull the little girl's hair when he strokes it.

Then, the hunter opened the biscuit bag, took out a kitten-patterned biscuit, and fed it directly into Abigail's mouth.

"Wow?!"

Abigail, who was taken aback, looked up and saw the hunter's calm gaze.

As long as I think it's worth it, that's fine.

It was as if he could see the hunter saying this silently.

"I-I know."

Knowing that her reaction was a little too cautious, the little girl exhaled and smiled at the hunter.

"Thank you Mr. Hunter, I am very happy to receive it from Mr. Hunter!"

Carefully chewing the biscuit fed by the hunter, the delicate little girl took out another biscuit, held it in her hand like a small animal, and gnawed it bit by bit.

The small body came a little closer, and the girl, who was gradually getting happier because of the crispy and delicious biscuits, couldn't help shaking her legs, and carefully ate the biscuits that she took out in the sound of "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh".

And the hunter just watched the little girl with a happy expression quietly. Although he didn't say a word, he could see the gentle expression in his eyes.

"Well, it's enough to eat this much, Mr. Hunter, let's go on, and we can talk about the rest when we go back."

Being stared at by the hunter for eating, Abigail quickly became embarrassed and whispered, avoiding the hunter's gaze with a reddish face.

Holding the hunter's hand, the two stood up from the bench and walked forward again.

There is no purpose, just like walking, the two of them just walked slowly.It is rare for the hunter to restrain his hunting thoughts and not think about how to deal with those monsters to get paid, but Abigail let the hunter lead her, humming an unknown tune softly, even her long blond hair was happy The mood jumps up.

thump—

Then, suddenly, a dull bell was heard.

thump—

From the distance of the street, a tall church rang out.

Chapter 52: The Church of the Stars

【Praise to the ruler of the starry sky, and pray for blessings with our sincere hearts】

【Offer the flesh and blood of this lamb, may the stars hang down】

【Present the most powerful warrior, may the stars rejoice】

[Dedicated to the youngest child, may the stars be happy]

[Dedicate our bodies and souls, and pray to the ruler of the starry sky to protect us]

【Master of the starry sky】

Whispering, praying like a dream.

The chopped off sheep's head and bull's head were placed together with the ears of melons, fruits and rice. Several nuns knelt down and prayed around these sacrificial offerings. The candlelight cast their shadows on the wall, faintly, as if they were shaking general.

The prisoner as a sacrifice was screaming, and the activated mechanism pierced sharp thorns at him in the cage from all directions, piercing the skin, piercing the flesh and blood, but then retracted it, retreated outside the cage, and then the next moment Reached in again.These spikes repeatedly pierced into the cage and then exited, each time going deeper than the last, until they completely penetrated the cage.Before that, it would be a long time before the prisoner actually died.
