The Story of Demon Hunter

Aoi Missing?

Three days later.

During these few days, Arthur had been exploring the village and the area around it. Not only that, he had also become acquainted with some of the villagers.

People called it that disaster had come to the village and they had to hide until the disaster disappeared. How to eliminate disaster ...

Yep. The most beautiful girl in the village had to be sacrificed.

Only then will the village calm down. They can all go out to do their usual activities. Like farming, hunting, or trading to a nearby town.

Clearly, rather than trying to save, they thought of immediately sacrificing Murasaki!

At Momo's house, Arthur and three others have gathered. They are Reyna, Murasaki, and Midorima. While Aoi was sleeping exhausted playing was sleeping in her room.

"Is everything going to be okay? I mean, there's nothing wrong with Murasaki, right?"

Although Midorima called her brother by name straight away and said in a disrespectful tone, a worried expression could not be hidden from her face.

"According to the information, the creature should not be stronger than me. So I'm pretty sure we can both beat him.

The problem is, the village chief said that the creature will not come out except during the ritual sacrifice procession. Therefore, we were forced to bring Murasaki.

But you don't have to worry, we both must have protected her!"

Reyna said with a firm tone. He then glanced at Murasaki with an apologetic expression. After befriending the girl, she clearly felt uncomfortable that the girl was taking the risk.

It was just that, everything could not be done if Murasaki did not do it!

In addition, the village chief had performed the first stage ritual the night before. Tonight, the ritual sacrifice must be performed. And, inevitably, they have to do it.

"Of course I would agree to that. Even if it fails, I won't blame you." Murasaki smiled gently.

"Sister!" midorima said with a reluctant expression.

"I—"

"It's okay, Midorima. Everything's gonna be fine. Isn't there Young Master Arthur and Miss Reyna?"

Looking towards the gently smiling Murasaki, Midorima looked reluctant. After a while, he was finally forced to agree.

***

In the evening, at the temple far from the village.

Murasaki wore traditional clothes. The girl dressed as beautiful as the typical village wedding dress. He walked alone through the front yard in polite steps while carrying a tray with a bowl of blood and lots of flowers on it.

Not far from there, Arthur and Reyna hide behind a lush bush.

Murasaki stopped in front of the temple steps and placed what she was carrying there. After that, he took a few steps back and sat down and bowed politely three times.

Murasaki stood up and began to dance. The sound of a bell tied to both his hands and feet echoed in the forest. The voice seemed gentle and soothing, but it also carried a chill at the nape of its listeners.

Just then, suddenly a figure appeared from behind Arthur and Reyna.

Arthur turned his head towards Midorima who had just arrived with an astonished look on his face. Not to mention when looking at the young man's messy appearance.

He really thought that something was wrong!

Although Midorima panicked, she did not dare to shout at all and interrupted the ritual process. The young man looked at Arthur and Reyna anxiously as he said.

"Young Master Arthur, Aoi ... Aoi's missing!"

Hearing that, Arthur and Reyna's expressions instantly changed.
