DESTINY GIRL

68. Weapons Of Silver

" Miss, I don't understand that black smoke. Shouldn't he be exposed to the sun when he comes looking for prey ? While my sword only reflects sunlight, doesn't that make no sense ? "

Asgar asked confusedly.

" Sunlight is not very dangerous because it spreads. Another if collected. And the reflection of the sun on the sword and shield is the accumulated sunlight, its nature is brighter and hotter, giving rise to fire. He came here because of the smell of blood. The demon was a little stronger than the usual. But its form still cannot be formed due to exposure to sunlight. Witch-men have bodies that are resistant to the sun. But demons have no form, that's why they need blood or control over someone's body. It can also get into the body of animals, but animals are difficult to control" explains Rey.

Asgar nodded in understanding. He looks around.

" Miss, I will find out the state of the palace through the people's conversation" Asgar said.

" Be careful. Come back before dark "Reply Rey.

Rey walks in search of a gun shop. This incident made him understand one small thing. He must have something necessary when his magic cannot be used. He came in and talked to the shop owner.

" Could you call your usual worker forging weapons ? I want to order something that must be finished today as well "ask Rey with dazzling eyes.

The shop owner smiled. He could not refuse Rey's request.

" I can't promise, miss. But we better ask Brandon directly "the answer. He told the other workers to call Brandon. Before long appeared a rather old man. He went to the gun shop owner.

" What's wrong, sir ? " sanyanya.

" This young lady wants to order directly from you" replied the shopkeeper. Old man Brandon looked at Rey, Rey smiled.

" Can you make me a fan out of silver, sir ? " ask Rey.

" Is there a reason for that ? " ask old man Brandon.

" yes. Silver can be used as a weapon against demons or witches. Since I'm a woman, it's appropriate that I use a fan to stunt her "Rey explained.

For a moment the shopkeeper and old man Brandon stared at each other. They also heard what had just happened. Their eyes were wide open, noticing Rey's words. They immediately agreed.

" I'll make you the prettiest silver fan Miss " said old man Brandon.

" Yes, after that we will make a lot of silver weapons for sale "said the shop owner pleased.

" We need not be afraid of the devil anymore. But either way, we'd better fight them by noon. Because they're so mean and cunning " said old man Brandon.

" Well, I'll be back here before dark, can I ? " ask Rey.

" It's easy, I'll do it right away" replied the old man.

Time passes quickly. Rey asks Asgar to get a fan at the gun shop.

" Excuse me, I've been sent here by the lady to take her order "Asgar to see the store owner.

" A... wait a minute" said the shopkeeper telling the waiter to call Brandon. Before long old man Brandon came carrying a silver-carved fan.

" It's very nice, miss must really like it "Asgar was weighing in her hands.

" Aren't you the young man who fought the devil this afternoon ? " ask old man Brandon.

" Yes, but the lady also helped me" Asgar said.

" You guys are great, you gave us an idea. We'll make an assortment of silver weapons and sell them cheaply to the townspeople "the shopkeeper said excitedly.

" That's good. Don't forget to give free to the incapable. If you are still lacking, meet me at the BIGGO inn "Asgar put 100 gold pieces on the table and leave immediately. The shopkeeper and old man Brandon were flabbergasted.

" Thank you, sir ... thank you.

That night old Mr. Brandon and the shop owner teamed up to design some gun drawings from simple to heavy. The money Asgar gave was excessive for weapons financing and workers' wages. So there is no loss in giving small arms for free to families who can't afford it.

Rey cradled the fan with pleasure. He was fanning himself while sleeping. Asgar had already told about the owner of the weapon shop who intended to make many kinds of weapons from silver. It is meant for all men or women.

Asgar also gave this news to the residents of the inn. Of course they are happy. They intend to visit the gun shop to order weapons that are in accordance with their wishes. If it was true that people were willing to buy silver weapons, it meant that they would start to rise up against it. So Rey and Asgar don't have to bother exterminating demons or lowly witches. Their focus is Destraco.

As usual, tonight many demons and witches were milling around the city. But people are used to staying indoors with candles or torches that stay lit. Not many more vagabonds were seen because most of them died as victims of demonic attacks at the beginning of the collapse of Higresia.

The state of the palace was now gloomy and dark. All those who worked in the palace now wore black robes, most of them were witches or half-demons (demon-ruled soldiers) . No more kitchen maids or anything else because it is not needed. After all, they've been killed a lot. The rest went home because they were afraid.

The man in black hood passed through the halls of the palace. He entered one of the dark rooms.

" Mister. But they don't seem to have magic. They only wear swords and shields of silver "he said.

" ................ "

There was no sound, but the man kept his head down.

" Where is the girl of fate. Doesn't anyone know about it ? " he heard a loud voice.

" I've been trying to steal the hearings of people in markets and food stalls, but there's nothing about fate girls "he replied fearfully.

" What about the brothel ? " the figure began to growl.

" They're closed, sir. Because there are no more visitors who go there lately "he replied

" Hmmph... go... ! " the voice of the raucous voice drove him away. Quickly he got out of the room. Outside the door he took a breath of relief before leaving.

While inside the dark room was a figure mixed with black fog. He growled slowly like a murmur.

" Where is the girl of fate. I have to find him before anyone else. His blood will make me immortal and this body is no longer worthy, it is too weak. I have to take the body of a special person. Too bad destiny is a girl. If only he were a man, I would have no equal. Ha.ha.ha.ha. "his laughter sounded sinister echoed in the palace. Anyone who heard it trembled in fear.
