DESTINY GIRL

139. Uh, That Hermit Again....

Out of the Blazein turned the road to the right, entering the crowd of the city.

" What is the name of this city, Asgar ? " ask Rey.

" It looks like it's Malto, Miss. We once passed through this city from another road "answered Asgar.

" Malto.... ? Mm..... This city is not clean. There were some demons wandering around unseen "Rey closed his eyes.

Asgar silently felt the movement of the air around him. Unaware he agreed.

" We better find an inn first. We're going to disguise ourselves as grandparents" Rey said.

" Good Miss "

They went into the COMEIN Lodge. The guests offer lunch together. Rey nodded. They soon joined the dining table. There were some people chatting.

" Have you heard about last night ? "

" What.... ? "

" The rich man's wife attacked his servant at midnight. But fortunately there was a horse keeper who helped the servant. He hit her on the head with firewood. But as a result now his master's wife is dying... "

" So... ? "

" Yes he was forced to report to security officers "

" But, what was the reason his wife attacked the waiter ? "

" He said he was thirsty, but he could not wait. Then bit the servant's hand and sucked his blood. Luckily the horsekeeper went through the kitchen door to pick up the bucket. He picked up the firewood and hit the assailant in the head. Actually he did not recognize it because the kitchen was only illuminated by 1 candle "

" How is the wife of the rich man ? "

" The doctor couldn't help, his head cracked he said. The rich man was now away looking for a hermit in the town of Blazein "

" Uhuk.... " Asgar immediately patted Rey on the back.

People noticed.

" What's wrong with you Grandma... Is the food not good enough ? "

" no... No. I just choked on a vegetable "Reported Rey. He was surprised to hear the rich man go to find the false hermit. Asgar smiled.

They continued eating. One by one they finished eating and left. Rey and Asgar are out.

" Does Miss want to see him ? " ask Asgar.

" How did you know I wanted to see him, cake.. ? " answer Rey.

" Oh yeah Grandma, sorry I forgot we're old. He.he.he... " Asgar scratched his head.

" I suspect his wife is possessed by a demon. How do we get into his house ? " ask Rey.

" Say we're his wife's family "

From far away, people were running around. Sounding cries.

" What's the commotion ? " ask Rey to know.

" Awaass..... "

" What's up ? " ask Asgar shouting.

" Some are possessed by demons... ! "

" He's got a knife... ! "

Rey and Asgar silently watched. A horse carriage stopped and descended an expensively dressed man with a long bearded old man.

" My wife.... realize... ! it's Richard, your husband "he said in front of a woman holding a knife. His appearance was messy, his eyes glaring. There is blood seepage next to the head up to the shoulder.

The old hermit pointed his finger at the woman. There was a glimmer of white light streaking. The woman was fixated in silence, only her eyeballs were glancing indeterminate directions.

" Hurry up and get the knife "

Richard immediately took the knife from his wife's hand.

The hermit examined the seepage of blood next to his head.

" It's cracked, the marks are hit. "he severed one of Richard's wife's dress belts and tied the woman's head while reciting a spell. Richard's wife grimaced with pain.

The hermit put his hand on the affected part of the head while muttering. Then pressed the nerves in the back so that Richard's wife fell limp. Richard hurriedly held back and carried her home. The old hermit followed him.

Rey and Asgar stared at each other and shrugged.

" Let's go to the dress shop. We're gonna stay here a few days to see his work" Rey said a little strangely. They crossed the entrance to the clothes shop.

For 30 counts they pick a shirt and come out after paying for it. Rey and Asgar walk leisurely without purpose. A dog used to come up against Rey. He barked and roared. Rey and Asgar knew the dog needed help.

" What is a hairy creature.... ? " Rey asked softly.

The dog waved his front hand. Rey nodded and followed him. They entered the hallways of the rundown house until the dog stopped in front of a small house.

The sound of the cry of a child. Rey and Asgar are coming in. They saw a man lying weakly on a mattress on the floor. Rey calms the boy.

Asgar sat down beside the man. He took off his necklace and clasped it in the man's hand 10 seconds later the man opened his eyes. But he was speechless, just looking at Asgar questioningly.

" I'm Asgar, and this is my brother, Rey. We just happened to pass by to help " said Asgar smiling and then taking his necklace back.

Rey gave the little boy 5 pieces of silver "Go buy some food for you and your father ".

After the boy left, Rey picked up a small can on the desk. He reflects it before giving it to the man.

" If you need something, pray and say what you need. If the powerful allow it, then what you need will be fulfilled here. Don't be abused and please be the one in distress" Rey said.

The man thanked me while crying.

Her son came and hugged her "Dad why are you crying... ? is it still painful ? "

" Father.it's okay, son. "the answer was a little choked up and came back crying.

Rey touches Asgar's arm and they disappear.

Out of the hallway, many people noticed something. In the middle of the street, the old hermit was facing a woman in a white dress stained with blood. His hand was holding a knife, there seemed to be traces of his blood.

" Isn't that Mr. Richard's wife who was taken home ? " ask Asgar.

" Hmmm.... That woman was dying yesterday. His body is possessed by the devil. He needed fresh blood to survive. I want to see if the old hermit is able to handle it " said Rey with a slanted smile. Asgar smiled at him.

The old hermit said to recite the mantra and pointed his finger at the woman. One light shot out.

" Zaapp.... ! "

The woman just jerked a little. He snarled and went forward to knock his knife.

Of course the hermit dodged and kicked the woman in the hand. But it turned out that the handle was very strong, the knife did not come off. He continues to attack. The woman grew even more furious as the hermit hit her on the head.

He roared and lunged at the hermit, piercing his shoulders and back. The people who saw it screamed in horror. The ascetic threw him out immediately. But the woman came back crashing even biting.

The hermit annoyedly hit the woman's chest. Blood spurt from his mouth.

His knife was thrown on the shoulder of the hermit. Again, people scream in shock.
