The Story of Demon Hunter

Mountain God?

A few days later.

“Are we really not misguided, Boss?”

Sitting on a flying sword, Joe asked Arthur with a puzzled look on his face.

Clearly, according to the task at hand, the furious demon general and demonic beast came to destroy the four kingdoms. If their goal was indeed like that, the enemy should have attacked the big cities.

As for now, the direction they were heading towards was a small town on the border, not crowded, and was in the mountains. It doesn't fit the task given.

“Do you doubt me, Joe?” Arthur raised his eyebrows.

Although usually a bit careless, Arthur is very confident with his navigation. The young man was convinced that he was not blind. The direction of the goal is clearly the same as the command.

Obtaining information from the headquarters to track down the enemy, Arthur does not believe he is lost!

“Not that I doubt you, Boss. It's just, it seems this place is less suitable, right?”

“I know you mean.” Arthur nodded heavily. “Rather than attacking remote places, demonic beasts should attack big cities.”

“True.” Joe nodded heavily.

“...”

Lily sat down beside Arthur, staring at the two without changing her expression. Rather than thinking of complicated and uncertain things, the girl instead focused more on the beautiful scenery of the surrounding forests, rivers, and mountains.

“Could that demonic beast distract, Boss? I mean, go further afield to fish and stop the chase while two other demonic beasts attack the city.”

Thinking of the other two demonic beasts that had larger sizes and stronger destructive power, Joe felt that things had become more reasonable.

“I trust the people at headquarters. They definitely wouldn't give you the wrong coordinates. That means, just one conclusion!” arthur said with a mysterious look.

“You mean, Boss?” Joe looked confused.

“That means the city is more important than we imagined.”

“That small town ... is more important than big cities with more population?”

Joe was confused. Although those demonic beasts had a little bit of intelligence, they should not be able to do things like target important cities or anything like that.

“Did it all happen because of the bat devil's directive?” mumbling Joe.

“Could be due to bat devil direction. However, it is possible that another demon gave them the order.”

Arthur said with a relaxed expression. It seemed that the young man did not really care about the reason for the demonic beast attack. A moment later, he added.

“Our task is only to take care of a few demonic beasts. Whether there is something deeper or not, it has absolutely nothing to do with us. No need to think too much.”

Arthur just wants to finish the task and leave the kingdom. Other than wanting to search for various cooking ingredients, he was not too keen on getting involved with some sort of conspiracy or such.

In fact, after joining the Garden of Death, Arthur wanted to become a salted fish. Rather than busy working, he wanted to sunbathe, flip through the body without thinking about many things.

After all, dealing with humans is troublesome.

Flying for some time, Arthur and his two colleagues see a small town. Although the building is simpler compared to other big cities, but the city looks ancient and gives the impression of peace. Looks comfortable to live in.

The flying sword descended directly into the town square.

Many citizens stared at Arthur and his two comrades with curious expressions. In fact, many children are running around. Trying to get close because he wanted to see a real cultivator.

By the time Arthur and his two comrades descended from the flying sword, many children were looking at them with curious expressions on their faces.

Seeing the peaceful scenery in the city, Joe could not help but whisper to Arthur.

“Are we not misplaced, Boss? It seemed that the people in the city had absolutely no problems, not even a panic on their faces. Looks very normal.”

“...”

Even so, Arthur also felt grateful for not having to see the chaotic scene where many people died. In particular, weak children should be victims.

At that moment, came the figure of a middle-aged man in beautiful clothes. He was surrounded by many guards. Clearly, his position in the city was not at all low.

“Welcome to Green Coral City, Dear Guests. Introduce, my name is Koga.”

“So that's Mr. Koga. My name is Arthur. They are my colleagues, Joe and Lily.”

“It's nice to meet you, Mr. Arthur. We got a letter from above. To explain the situation in detail, please follow us.”

Looking at Koga's face, Arthur nodded lightly.

“Understanding.”

Arthur and his two partners then follow Koga and the guards.

After a while, they finally arrived at the city lord's mansion not too far away from the square. On the way, Arthur got some information.

Koga is the master of Green Coral City. The residents of this city usually work as pickers of special plants on the mountain. These plants were usually sold to cultivators because they were useful for making various medicines or poisons.

Due to various agreements, many cultivators could only obtain various herbs picked. Can't take it alone at all.

Arguably, this city was an important city that had the function of being one of the liaisons of the kingdom with several sects and cultivators.

Sometime later, Arthur and his two companions sat in the living room of the city lord's house. Following Koga's direction, many enthusiastic servants welcomed and entertained them well.

Arthur glanced towards the steaming tea on the table with a calm expression.

“Jadi ... can we talk about everything now, Mr Koga?”

Hearing the question, Mr. Koga who previously seemed relaxed became more serious. After a long sigh, the man then said.

“Please say what you want to ask, Mr. Arthur.”

“Good.” Arthur nodded. “Firstly. I wonder why this city can be so calm when there is a demonic beast that attacks.”

“Reason why the city is quiet because we do not spread the word to the residents.”

Hearing that, Joe immediately frowned. The man couldn't help but ask.

“Isn't that dangerous? It not only affects the life of one, but many people.”

“Actually, the security of the city can still be guaranteed because the demonic beast only lives in the mountain and does not carry out a massive attack.” Koga said casually.

“It means .... Our arrival is actually in vain?” Arthur raised his eyebrows.

“Of course not.”

Koga shook his head. Gazing towards the confused Joe and the still calm Arthur, he began to explain.

“Although it does not attack the city, but the creature attacks anyone who goes to the forest or mountains in search of wild plants. It greatly affected the income of the city, even the royal relationship with the world of cultivators.

In addition, many old men began to spread gossip. They say that the act of picking wild plants is wrong. In fact, it was presumed that the actions of the people in the city aroused the anger of the Mountain God.

According to them, the Mountain God now appears to punish this city.”

Hearing Koga's explanation, Arthur stroked his chin. Lifting a slight corner of his lips, the young man muttered.

“Heh ... Mountain God, is it?”
