Punishment for the Killer

The Blood Hunter

Red hair is very distinctive and rarely encountered, but that does not mean the existence of red-haired people is rare. Red hair is a hallmark of the country of Rufa in Bena Continent. Rufa means Red-Haired. All people of Rufa nationality have red hair. As long as they have Rufa's blood. Their hair will be red.

Rufa is an island nation that belongs to the continent of Bena. Initially Rufa was still included in the Vadim continent and was a royal state. But since about 200 years ago. Rufa was diverted into the territory of the country of the Bena Continent and is now no longer a royal country.

The beginning of Rufa is no longer a kingdom because children born to the Rufa increasingly lose their distinctive abilities. At first the Rufa national soldiers were very much feared. Even from far away the red hair that was seen had already made the trepidation of the enemies on the battlefield.

They were born as a great special force. Work silently but everything is in order in an instant. Making their names so bad. Their red hair color is very similar to the red of blood. But when the war occurs on the battlefield that will certainly spill a lot of blood. If they handle it. The place will be clean without a drop of blood. How it happened. No one knows but themselves. They were given the title Blood Hunter because of this.

This is only possible if they still have special powers that are never known other than their descendants. Yet... Sadness starts from the people who are slowly born with a characteristic strength that is weak, to be born without the slightest strength. The prince and even the future king-to-be were born with weak powers and generations lost their distinctive abilities. Until one day the King who was appointed did not have any power at all.

The story about them only became a bedtime legend. Now their country is famous for its sailors. In accordance with their image which is the largest island nation in the world.

They are no longer a royal state. But they still cherish their king so that their country is also known as a Special State. Where the King and the President of the country side by side.

"I'm David Roano Hien, the owner of this yacht" the ship's owner tried to introduce himself to his client.

"Roano Hein's.. It seems like a familiar name" Evan's grandfather muttered in his heart. The name seemed familiar but he did not take a headache. Elyn's condition is much more important.

"I'm Wiko Naratama.. Just jump.. As you heard. My goal here is to see if you've helped a girl." Grandfather Evan without further ado instantly said his goal.

The manager who had brought them together, had broadly explained the purpose of Evan's grandfather's arrival.

"Yes.. The manager explained it to me.." He said with a friendly smile.

"This.. According to this child. He was helped by a redhead who claimed to be a servant on this ship. But no waiter claimed to have seen the child in the photo." Said Evan's grandfather while showing a photo of Elyn to Rory the owner of the ship.

"Ymmm.. Yes, this child.." David looked at the photo of Elyn with a slight face.

"Sorry sir, I have never met this boy.." Said the owner of the cruise ship.

"Well.. Who else is the redhead. Is there any chance this ship could have been in the intruder?" Ask Grandpa Evan who was getting anxious.

"No sir.. This ship has very strict security. We are also protected by magic so that passengers are safer and more comfortable. No one can enter without permission." Clearly with conviction.

"Hm... What happened to the boy, sir?" Ask again who wants to.

Grandfather Evan explained Elyn's current condition. Mr. David sometimes seemed to think and clearly visible on his face that was also anxious.

"Hm... May I see the child's condition directly, sir?" After hearing Evan's grandfather's story. Mr. David was concerned and there might be something he could help. Given the incident is also still on his boat tour trip.

"Good.. Let's see the boy. If you think about someone, please help. We had absolutely no idea what she was going through until she became like this." Grandpa Evan looks very worried about Elyn's condition. She also fears that Elyn's bad circumstances are affecting her grandson who has just risen from the brink of losing his mother.

Elyn's parents just nodded slowly. Elyn's mother, who was still sobbing in her husband's arms, could only stare at David's heart. Elyn's father smiled.

"How did you find someone who helped Elyn?" Ask Evan's dad worried.

Grandpa Evan only shook his head weakly. He looked at the two Elyn parents who looked increasingly anxious.

"Where's yah.. This way.. What should we do with Elyn." Elyn's mother is getting hysterical.

"Silent Mom.. Calm.. We'll wait till we get out of this portal first." Elyn's father calmed his wife.

David approached Elyn. In his face, Elyn's body is lying limp with bandages and injuries on her tiny body.

"Master.. Can I see the wound on his leg?" David looks curious.

They just look at the astonishment of Mr. David's behavior. Who checked Elyn's situation.

"Do you understand medicine or magic?" Asked Elyn's mother stammeringly.

"Little Ma'am.. I have a slightly special eye" Mr. David smiled slightly answering Elyn's mother's question.

"Ah... David Roano Hein yes your name. Roano Hein names it the royal family name Rufa." Chirps Evan's grandfather who remembered the familiar name."

David just smiled faintly. He does not deny or even agree with the words of Evan's grandfather.

"David Roano Hein's.. Wasn't he the King of today. But choose to give up the throne to his twin sister Deva Roano Hein." Evan's father was surprised when he heard this.

"Huhahahs.. I prefer to sail like this. I'm not interested in politics." He said again, who started laughing.

"Ah.. You have special eyes. That includes the rest of the typical power that is now only possessed by a handful of Rufa royal families alone." Evan's father again.

"Yes.. Yes so.. " David's sir confirmed Evan's father's words.

Elyn's father took off all the bandages on Elyn's body. Let David check it out.

Mr. David's expression looked grim. He frowned. Obviously Elyn's condition didn't look good even before Mr. David said anything.

"It looks like a lot of magic is mixed and churned in his body sir. His wound was covered in some magic aura. Maybe that's what makes it this way." Said Mr. David after checking Elyn's condition.

"We don't know what happened until it became like this. The only person we can ask is the one who saved Elyn. But that person we couldn't find" There was disappointment on Elyn's father's face.

"Ah.. Wait for one more person. He really likes it.. He is not registered as an employee. But as a passenger" Shouted Mr. David who felt found Elyn's helper.

"Wait a moment I will call him" he said again while ordering the Manager who had been accompanying Mr. David with them.
