Chereads / The Blade of the Hunter / Chapter 46 - Kid Square

Chapter 46 - Kid Square

Shire walked carefully down the corridor to the little devil's square at the bottom of the workshop. They ran about aimlessly, making a sharp noise that was disturbing. The big ghosts were flying all over the sky, picking up little devils at random and throwing them into distant furnaces. Shire had to cross this huge square while avoiding the flying ghosts in the sky. Otherwise he's gonna be raw material.

He dived down, and one after another of the little devils about his size were flailing around, pushing and shoving each other, bumping into each other, most of them aimlessly, some of them trying to find a place to get out, but they were soon pushed back by the big ghosts blocking the way, and they could only keep running in the square, venting their energy, and sometimes beating each other.

You gotta be careful. These kids don't catch you. As Char pondered, he saw a strange imp.

Instead of running around the plaza or bumping into each other like the others, this little imp just sat alone on the ground, head in hands, staring straight ahead.

Such a strange performance could not help but attract Shire's attention, he went to the edge of the child, learn to squat down like it.

"Why don't you wander around like the other kids?" 'asked Shire.

"Quack." The child turned his head and stared at him.

It seems that there is no time to evolve the ability to talk to the imp, can not communicate, Shire had to look around, immediately saw a particularly ferocious imp, with a companion's body as a weapon, smashing and knocking everywhere, very arrogant, the other imp beat the head scurrying, if the imp runs too slow, stop in its moving road, it will be kicked away.

The murderous Imp also noticed Shire and the motionless creature next to him, and lunged at them with a waving arm.

Shire ran away, the little boy beside him was knocked down, and then lay there, motionless, looking at the SLATE on the top of the armory.

"Quack! Murderous imp aimed at the shire attack, Shire did not hesitate, reach out to grab it used as a weapon of the imp arm, suddenly took over, and then hard punch, hit the kid in the face.

It felt like a child fight, and it was like Charles was back in his childhood fighting in the village, and the muscle memory was awakened, and he pounced, straddled the kid, and punched it until it was silent, and a wisp of soul floated out of it, and was swallowed up by Graddiu.

Char eats the murderous imp, feels his body contour has grown a circle, that is, violence, victory, become stronger.

He saw the scene around Wu great chaos, a large number of children from an underground channel to drill out, here to fight with each other, if they grow big enough, there is a chance to be held by the big ghosts to train fighters, if bad luck, will be thrown into the stove to burn. Most of them fail in fights and die at the hands of their own kind.

"There's a war outside." Shire heard tremors and explosions in the distance.

"Yes, the great battle between the demons, every minute, all the time."

"Are you going to keep killing each other? Never a peaceful day?" Shire some strange, he thought that the demons are hiding in hell, sharpening their knives ready to attack the earth, did not expect that they are constantly killing each other.

"Fighting keeps us hungry, makes every little imp know the beauty of victory, makes all demons firm in their determination to kill, and makes all my kind know how to devour souls." In this way, when the door demon opens the door to the other world, we will ensure a foolproof victory."

"Door demon..." The Shire knew about this demon, and it was responsible for opening the way to hell.

"I can feel here the countdown to the next invasion, which is less than a century away and will be shortened if anyone on Earth responds." The invasion is aimed at your world, and the moment the door opening demon successfully opens the door, you know perfectly well that billions of great ghosts, imps, demons of the lower order and demons of the higher order are ready for the greatest conquest, greedy, fierce and eager to swallow up the delicious world. You think you are strong, but you are powerless in the face of hell. We are not of the same magnitude." Graddius described it cruelly.

"It's amazing, even though you live in a little imp's body, you can say such a righteous thing." Shire looked down at his short hands and feet, although grown up some, but still can only use small to describe.

"Bah, it is your inefficiency in collecting souls. Hurry up and bring new souls."

Shire thought for a while, went to the child who was knocked down before to help up, its body to restore balance, but is still sitting on the ground, do not participate in the noise around.

"You see, this little imp is very peaceful."

"They are strangers in hell, without a desire for a soul, destined to be small and unaccomplished, and we despise the weak, and even less the unenterprising scum." Does it deserve to sit around doing nothing? It should fight like hell! Make yourself stronger! Give your Lord an advantage in war!"

"If all the little devils were as peaceful as he is, the demons would not attack other worlds."

"It was born in the wrong place, Char. Go and eat it and take its soul."

Shire stared at the dazed little boy for a long time, and then looked around the armory, and there were probably two or three other little boys like him in the grand Square, behaving rather negatively. It is difficult for them to survive, and due to their non-resistance nature, they are instantly eaten by their violent compatriots.

"It looks like a chance for the demons to become peaceful."

A hell full of peace kids, no longer invading everywhere, Shire thought of here, felt what opportunity.

"Don't be a puss trying to find a bridge to peaceful coexistence."

'What?

"You humans should fight the demons to death, racking your brains, fighting with all your might, until the race has vanished into oblivion and the world has been crushed into space." There is only the strong crushing the weak, hatred and violence is endless. Do not think that your world and hell can find a peaceful coexistence of the ending, what humans and demons finally resolved the hatred, the devil found a way to live without eating souls, and finally everyone lived together in peace, or because of the emergence of a third party outside of humans and demons, causing us all to unite against external threats... Stop dreaming - show me your sword! Cut its shell open and eat its soul!" "Growled Graddiu.

"..." Char looked at his own claws, and Graddiu reassembled the demonic mass, turning it into a sharp knife.

Hunt the devil.

He walked up to the stranger, who still looked at him innocently. I am a demon hunter, and Char thrust the deformed blade of his right arm into it, drew it out, and the soul flowed from the wound, becoming food for Graddiu, while the impish shell was eaten by Char, forming the basis for his strengthening of the demon body.

I was getting familiar with this group, and Charles ran towards the smelting platform at the other end of the workshop, thinking constantly, this is a group of terrible monsters, a large number of soul fragments from unknown sources have floated here, become demon immortals, immortals under the control of powerful demons to fight each other, evolve, and become stronger and stronger, and their ultimate goal is to conquer, invade other living worlds, plunder a large number of souls, To maintain their own existence.

The more powerful the demon, the more things to spend when crossing the world, so it is generally the low-end demons can take advantage of entering our world, what we have to do is to try to kill them, prevent them from harming the public, on the other hand, we also have to find a way to prevent these high-level demon organizations from invading.

I can't do these things now, and when I get back to the real world, I have to gather more men, more intelligence.

"Quack! A large flying ghost flapped its wings and grabbed Char, interrupting his thoughts.

'Die! Shire to it showed the blade in his hand, the big ghost bully, quickly escape in a hurry.

He brazenly bullies other kids on the road, using his advantages of being taller, bigger and sharper than them, killing the kids along the way, and many unfortunate little monsters fell on the road that Shire passed, and the demon quality and soul were absorbed.

When Char climbed near the smelting platform, he was not far from the form of those big ghosts, and his body was more vigorous and gradually approaching the human body.

The fire demon craftsman placed the charred ring he had forged on a nearby rock, stretched out his fist of flame, and slowly condensed a golden arc in it, as if ready to forge the next one.

Shire hiding in the stone column next to see if there is a chance.

"Fool it." "Say that a demon Lord called Kakut of Magma sent you to fetch the charred ring."

'Who is that?

"I made it up. There are so many fire demons, there must be one by that name."

"It's too dangerous."

"No one knows hell better than I do, so tell it, and it promises to hand you the charred ring."

"Then your administration is too chaotic, shouldn't the demon Lord be in charge of distribution?"

"What, you fool, confusion to the extreme is reasonable." We forge tens of millions of treasures of this level every day, if all have to be unified dispatch, investigation and research, and sent to the hands of the evil that should be sent, it is not too troublesome, everyone is watching the configuration, there is no trouble, there is an invisible hand."

"I believed in your evil." Charles looked at it, Graddiu was, after all, the high demon of hell, and Charles felt that what it said should be reliable.

He emerged from his hiding place and walked to the flame demon forging the ring, its body sinking in the fire, and leaned over the Shire, the heat blowing in his face.

"Who's ugly? Get out of here." It scolds.

"Kakut of magma..." Shire was about to speak when suddenly the whole palace shook.

Somewhere cracked open, issued a loud rock collapse, Shire followed the sound looked, the ordnance workshop all the big ghost children's attention is also attracted by the movement. There was a brief silence, and then there was a great shock, when the roof of the armory suddenly burst open, and the rocks flew down, killing countless children, and a giant gaseous hand formed from fire pushed through the crack, and the terrible head poked out, and glancing a little, noticed the Shire.

"Graddiu! It's the burning demon guarding the incubator! Got him so fast? It took a big mouth, and the amazing pillar of fire came crashing down on the Shire.

The flame was gorgeous, the temperature was hot, and the Shire, without regard to anything else, rushed towards the charred ring.
