The Divine Hunter Chapter 12: Aftermath

"Ta, Ta, Ta"

Two figures came out of the woods one after another, each holding a naked child of five or six years old in their arms.

The tender skin of the two children was covered with blood, and their rosy little faces were pale. At this moment, the small body was curled up like a baby, as if in a nightmare, and the closed eyelids trembled like an electric shock from time to time.

Aaron's blood spattered on his back, and the two children passed out on the spot, without even seeing the scene of their father's tragic death.

This is a small consolation.

"There is clearly a strain of the sun's blood. If we knew how to refine the universal antidote, Aaron wouldn't have to die."

"There are not so many ifs. This is Aaron's fate. He broke his promise to the priestess, and death is the punishment he deserves." The demon hunter had a cold expression, as if he was stating a matter-of-fact truth.

Roy agreed with what he said, but stared at the newly added records, his eyes and nose twisted into a ball, with a strong sense of sadness, "Kill the cursed one - Werewolf Aaron, experience +200, Demon Hunter lv4 (800/2000)".

This is the most difficult time for him to gain experience, not with his body, but with his mind.

There is no doubt that the werewolf is not an innocent person, betraying his oath, and even repaying kindness with revenge! But his love for his children is sincere and true, which represents the beautiful side.

"Boy, why are you sad? This man chose to redeem himself." The demon hunter suddenly sighed, "And you didn't see it? He has long been determined to die."

……

Most of the members of the acrobatic troupe who went out to search for Aaron have returned, with light traces of blood on their bodies, especially the Zelican girl Cantila lazily stroking the sharp scimitar, her eyes flashing, like a head enjoying herself A female animal feasting after a hunt.

When Roy and the demon hunter came back, the two strange children in their arms immediately attracted everyone's attention. The women cleaned their bodies maternally, found two more blankets to wrap them in, and used the bonfire to dry and warm their cold bodies.

"We successfully eliminated a few water ghosts in the swamp, but unfortunately we never found the mark left by the boss. Master Leisuo, what is going on here, and where did you find the two children?"

The witcher and Roy exchanged glances. They had discussed it many times along the way, but finally decided to tell the truth according to Aaron's instructions, even though it might get in trouble.

"The real situation is like this, everyone should be mentally prepared..."

After a long narration.

Everyone in the Sea Scorpions had different expressions. Some people thought that the demon hunter and Roy had teamed up to kill Aaron; some people heard words like "curse", "temple of bad omens", "werewolf", etc. and fell into unknown panic. ; Some people were shocked and slowly accepted their statement.

Fortunately, the main members of the Sea Scorpions are believers. During their daily interactions, they more or less discovered some of Aaron's suspicious behaviors, but they did not expose them.

"I have always felt that the intimacy and tacit understanding between Ade, Aly and the boss are too outrageous. It turns out that they are all his biological flesh and blood... No, they are orphans now. The boss is a competent father... But after so many years of friendship, they are still Afraid that we wouldn't understand him, why don't you tell us the truth directly?" Evelin's eyes were red, her eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and she wiped the crystal from the corners of her eyes sadly.

"Maybe he doesn't want us to feel sad. The boss is always like this, thinking about others... Taking Ali out to hunt every night is actually protecting everyone secretly." Candila gritted her silver teeth and sighed, " So what if it’s a monster, a Zerikan makes friends no matter if he’s a human or a ghost!”

Yamos, who had been listening quietly, suddenly spoke, "It's true that the boss is eccentric, but he has never done anything that harmed the interests of the Sea Scorpion. He deserves to be the leader! But I don't believe in the demon hunter! ”

He suddenly turned his head and stared at Roy and the two of them fiercely and asked, "As far as I know, demon hunters are cold-blooded and ruthless and will never let go of any inhuman creature. I don't believe you are willing to help a werewolf! You are cheating. He killed the boss and then killed him?!"

"We killed the man in order to fulfill his wish." The demon hunter glanced at Yamos indifferently, "He is willing to use his own life to atone for his sins and let the two children regain their lives."

"When I was discussing Gwent with you, I realized that you might have a problem here." Roy pointed at his head and interjected, "You think we deceived him, and then you foolishly came back to make up a story. Ridiculous story? Then let me ask you, is it possible that the two children A Li and A De were conjured out of thin air?"

"Uh..." Yamos's eyes narrowed and he suddenly choked up. He wanted to say something more, but was swallowed back by Aveline's fierce glare.

"I believe them," Aveline sighed, "With the boss's character, he can indeed do such a thing... The top priority now is to deal with the boss's funeral, and we must not let his body be exposed in the wilderness like this. ”

"His body is still there." After Roy beheaded him, Aaron returned to his human appearance. "I will take you to see it later."

"But according to Aaron's last words, I hope you will burn the body on the spot and take his ashes with you. If you have the opportunity to return to the Rivendell Valley in the future, sprinkle it into the Nevi River... His wife Sheena Also buried in the river."

Everyone at Sea Scorpion looked moved when they heard this,

"The boss won't tell others casually about this kind of thing." Evelin concluded, "There is nothing to doubt now."

"As long as you understand," the young man sighed, "Aaron has always been tortured by the curse and has long wanted to reunite with his wife in another world."

……

The acrobatic troupe stayed in place for two days, retrieved Aaron's body, and burned it for a long time with the flames of wood and the witcher's Igni sign, barely burning it into a pile of broken bones, and then Collect them.

The entire carriage team was gloomy and gloomy. They all mourned for a quarter of an hour for their former boss, and many people had red eyes.

"Well, the deceased is dead. The boss will definitely be able to reunite with his wife in the kingdom of the goddess... The most urgent thing is that we should discuss how to arrange Aly and Ade?"

"Of course I'll stay in the group and take care of her together!" Candila patted her plump chest and blurted out.

"Also, Sea Scorpion must choose a new leader as soon as possible! He must be dignified and convincing!" Yamos couldn't wait to stand up and express his position. For a moment everyone glared at him, and he flinched back.

"Aaron made an announcement before his death that the position of leader should be given to Evelyn as his successor."

After Roy said this, everyone present had different expressions. Most of them accepted it happily, but Yamos was a little reluctant.

But it was useless for him to object alone, and the matter was settled.

The clown took a deep breath while holding the Fire Eater's arm, clasped his hands together, and begged with some stammering ~IndoMTL.com~ Everyone knows that Corinthius and I have been in love for many years, but it is a pity that we cannot have the fruit of our love. Both of us have been very regretful and helpless. ”

Floz's tone became excited, and his ugly face flushed with excitement, "Boss has always taken care of us and treated us like family members. We are grateful to him, and we want to repay but we have no chance. , but today... If you don't object, Colin and I want to adopt Aly and Ade, and repay the kindness of the elder Aaron for taking them in, which can be regarded as the fulfillment of our heart's wish. We will definitely treat them as our own, and we will treat them with every possible care. Take care of me!"

"Yes, yes!" the rough voice of the clown's partner Corinthian said in a panic.

"Please help us!" Two figures, one tall and one short, held hands and bowed heavily to everyone. Their heads almost dropped to the ground and they did not get up for a long time.

"Um..."

Everyone present was caught off guard. Although they had not discriminated against this same-sex couple, they subconsciously felt that they were different from normal couples.

How could they rashly adopt Aaron's children?

Everyone was in a dilemma. Evelin and Yamos were hesitant to speak. They wanted to refuse but were worried about hurting them.

Roy observed for a while and took the initiative to help them out, "The situation of Ade and Aly is relatively complicated and not suitable for adoption by ordinary people. They have been living in the form of kestrel and cat eagle for five years. The schedule and even personality are very different from ordinary people. For example, a cat rests during the day and makes noises at night, feeding on voles and other small animals and insects. And the kestrel likes the feeling of rushing down from the sky... Can you understand it?"

"And Aaron's original intention is for you to send the two children to the Temple of Elland Meriteri... It is a good place with many kind and gentle people."
