The Divine Hunter Chapter 2: The Lost Witcher

"Boy Roy, remember your promise and never commit murder! Every time you take another life, there will be one more broken family."

The young man sighed helplessly and waved at the fat woman with a serious face, "I promise, old mother Nannick! I promise that I will never kill innocent people indiscriminately, so please stop preaching to me!"

"Will you come back to see us?" Yaer, who is as thin as a bamboo pole, asked reluctantly,

"On the day you and Aurora II get married, I will also come and give you gifts! And take care of the two little guys for me, don't let them be bullied!"

"Huh..." Under the morning light, Roy looked at the Meriteli Temple hidden in the mountains in the distance and let out a long sigh of relief.

This is the place where he has lived the longest since he was reborn. It is quiet, peaceful and uncontested, and is extremely suitable for seclusion and recuperation.

However, his ambition is to have a good life in this world!

……

The weather became gloomy and gloomy. In the city of Elland, Roy, wearing a gray cloak and a hood covering his head, quietly came to the west of the city center in front of the prince's palace surrounded by high arched walls.

Across the bustling downtown area, groups of white rose knights with polished plate armor and swords on their waists were patrolling back and forth around this behemoth. They looked around with vigilant eyes and quickly locked onto Roy. This suspicious-looking figure walked straight into view!

"The guy in the cloak, I'm talking about you, stop and raise your head!" The guard holding down the sword ordered in a loud voice. Roy raised his head to reveal his strange look with light eyebrows and short hair. appearance.

The leading knight noticed his unusual dark golden eyes, and his expression softened slightly, "Your Excellency, you are a demon hunter?"

"Roy, the demon hunter of the Viper School..."

"Another Viper School." The tall knight with brown hair and brown eyes muttered in a low voice, but it failed to escape the latter's ears.

"I am a Cleveland Knight of the Knights of the White Rose. You have taken the trouble to come to the palace, and you must have accepted the commission on the bulletin board. Please come with me, the captain of the guard has been waiting for you for a long time."

"Entrustment?" Roy looked confused, and a sense from somewhere told him that Gu Weisier was lying quietly in the palace, which meant that his teacher should be inside.

"Is there any other commission that Lei Suo can't handle?"

Thinking like this, he followed the knight through the long corridor with hanging columns and entered a side room in the garden courtyard in front of the palace. Roy saw a familiar face here, the dwarf Kramer was sitting with a sad expression.

After not seeing each other for more than a month, the dwarf, who was originally as strong as a bear, has lost a lot of weight, and seems to be living a more uncomfortable life than the young man who suffered from the trial of green grass.

His heart skipped a beat, and an ominous premonition arose.

"Roy...you're here..." The dwarf forced a smile, his expression no longer as open-minded as before, with a hint of guilt.

"Kramer, why are you alone? Where did that guy Reso go?"

"This..." The dwarf sighed and stretched out his hand to motion for him to sit over.

"It's all my fault... Roy..." the dwarf sighed, his bloodshot eyes suddenly stared at the boy in confusion, "Wait, why do you feel like you have changed?"

"Have you grown taller? Where have your eyebrows and hair gone? Also, your eyes were normal before, but why have they turned dark blonde now?"

"I have passed the Green Grass Trial and become an official demon hunter. My appearance changed a little during the trial, which is normal... Now let's get back to Leisuo."

"Alas..." The dwarf covered his face with his **** hairy hands, lowered his head and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, I don't know how to speak. Master...Master Leisuo is missing."

"Missing?" Roy glanced to the side with a surprised look on his face. He could feel that Gurwishir was nearby. "What's going on?"

"Do you remember that I went to the temple to ask the master for help some time ago?"

"It seems that the commission is very difficult..."

"Okay, everything starts with this embarrassing commission. On the way to the palace just now, did you notice anything weird around you?"

Roy squinted his eyes and recalled, and easily recalled the situation along the way, "There were very few pedestrians... most people were deliberately avoiding the road here."

"Yes, there is now a small group of ignorant people who privately call the Prince's Palace the Cursed Palace of Death."

The dwarf said with a heavy expression, "Three months ago, at that time, the two of them had gone to the Temple of Meliteli. A murder suddenly occurred in Prince Siward's palace - a male servant died in the royal palace. Garden, the state of death is horrific."

"However, this was only the beginning of the crime. Murders began to occur one after another near the palace. Without exception, the deceased were killed by the murderer in a **** and cruel way. The corpses were also arranged in some very..." The dwarf frowned with thick eyebrows. He stood up and thought about it, "What a disgusting gesture."

"Oh, how disgusting...does a veteran like you feel uncomfortable?" Roy's dark golden pupils showed curiosity, "Tell me about it..."

"I will ask the coroner to give you detailed information about the deceased later."

"The murderer is cunning and sophisticated and is definitely a habitual criminal. The Knight of White Rose dug into all the murder scenes and found no valuable clues."

"The murderer slapped the faces of the White Rose knights hard." The dwarf said in a weird tone, with a hint of schadenfreude in addition to distress, "Prince Siward lost his temper several times over this matter. If the situation continues to deteriorate, White Rose will The people of the Knights of the Rose will completely fall out of favor and go back to Vizima in disgrace!"

Roy gave the dwarf a strange look, and then the latter stopped talking,

"I'm sorry, I lost my temper... The palace guards have never been easy to deal with the knights. We are happy to see them punished!"

"But Prince Seeward became more and more worried and asked us guards to get involved and help with the investigation. You should know very well that Dennis Kramer is a big boss and asked me to be a bodyguard or wield a weapon. Participate in the battle and make sure it is completed beautifully! But let me use my brain to catch the cunning murderer. I am not that material! I have to ask Master Leisuo for help."

"The master is indeed a professional. ~IndoMTL.com~ Three days ago, he calculated the time and place for us to set up an ambush outside the palace. Sure enough, we captured a sneaky figure, the ambush The crossbowman pulled the string, placed the arrow, and started to aim, but... he actually dodged it!"

A trace of shame flashed in the dwarf's eyes, "The murderer moved too fast, almost unhuman! It was just a flash of lightning in the dark night. I don't know how he noticed our ambush, and he focused on drilling into the dark and narrow alley. We He can't catch up at all, only Master Lei Suo is agile and stays behind him!"

At this point, the dwarf paused, "After a long time, we found traces of the fight, a few pools of blood, and pieces of leather armor that fell from the master's body in the Hanged Man's Alley a mile away. . His people are missing."

Roy's face darkened, and the ominous feeling became stronger.

"I have survived the trial of green grass, please don't let anything happen to you!"

He rubbed his temples to suppress his inner uneasiness and restlessness,

"Where is Leiso's weapon?"

"Yes, there is also the master's sword. I have been keeping it in a nearby room for the master. It is very safe now." A flash of surprise flashed in the dwarf's eyes, "Kramer is old, but he still has some eyesight. I If you read it correctly, it is a nearly lost ancient Visir sword, and the skill of the forger is not inferior to that of the Great Elder Brovar."

"The handwriting of a goblin..." Roy explained, before the dwarf continued to ask, "Since Leisuo is not here for the time being, please give me the sword and take me to the place where he disappeared. ”

He didn't believe that with the skills of a demon hunter, he could disappear so silently?

There must be some clues left.

With his new abilities, his witcher senses can also be put to use.
