The Story of Demon Hunter

Abandoned Villages

In a horse-drawn carriage.

“Hey, the one who wants to hunt down this Cockatrice is me. You don't have to come at all. I didn't do this at all because I had to, okay?”

Arthur looked towards Kiba who was now wearing armor and holding a sword. His expression looked so serious, it did not seem to mess with the mission they wanted to run. After all, fighting a creature like Cockatrice is no joke. The creature was quite famous for its power.

You could say, we should not judge just from his appearance.

“Mong-by the way, does the creature not have the gaze of death that makes people turn to stone or something?” ask Arthur.

“I don't know what creature you mean. However, the Cockatrice we know does not have such capabilities.” Kiba shook his head.

“How about the shape?”

“Sorry, I haven't seen it myself. In addition, the mother who had met also did not see it clearly because the place was so foggy.” Once again Kiba shook his head.

Looking towards the young man, Arthur was at a loss for words. Other than knowing that the enemy was Cockatrice and the evil cultivators who were experts in poison, the other information was really minimal. That means, the information itself is not so useful because they do not even know the skills that the opponent has and their level.

As for the level, Kiba himself is considered the most talented among the younger generation of his family. Now he was at the 1-star silver level. Kiba's mother, Mrs Fuji herself is at the level of a six-star silver. As for Kiba's father, he is now at the level of 8-star silver. Although it could not be considered very powerful, but it was already of sufficient quality for nobles like them.

After all, unlike the summoned people from other worlds, they really put more effort into cultivating.

Besides them, there was also Tarou, Kiba's bodyguard as well as the strongest guard in this noble house. He was at the 6-star silver level. Her own strength was slightly better compared to Mistress Fuji.

“Are all nobles cultivators?” ask Arthur.

“Not all. However, most of them tried to become cultivators, but very few noble families had cultivators. After all, in a world filled with evil beings like this, strength was extremely important. We can't just rely on the sects because they are also very busy in fighting the more dangerous evil beings.

For his own strength, although small, our family is considered strong because it has cultivators. Yes ... although in the grandfather generation and before there were no cultivators.

My father was lucky enough to awaken his cultivation talent. He went to one of the sects that was considered middle level. Even so, their members were also already widely respected by the people. There, my mother and father met.

While Uncle Tarou used to be a wanderer. But due to an incident, he was injured and saved by his father. Maybe to return the favor, he wants to stay at our residence and become a keeper.”

“You praise me too much, Young Master.”

The middle-aged man named Tarou who was sitting beside Kiba shook his head. He stroked the beard, staring at Arthur with a curious expression. After a while, the man finally asked.

“If you may know, are you a disciple of the famous Heavenly Pillar Sect, Young Master Arthur?”

“Errr ... arguably, former student because I don't want to stay there.”

Tarou looked at Arthur in surprise. He did not expect to hear such an answer. After all, most people would strive to join such a powerful sect. Instead of going out, most people try to hang in there to avoid being expelled.

Despite doubts whether Arthur did come out on his own or be expelled, Tarou did not continue to ask. After all, everyone has their own secrets. So he didn't want to bring up something that could be the old scar of the young man.

“That's. There are twelve palaces in common with the name shio.”

Arthur nodded lightly. Since it was not a secret, he did not mind sharing it at all. After all, the young man had no intention of returning to that place either.

“If you may know, which palace are you from, Mister?” asked Kiba who was curious about the cultivation world.

Despite having cultivation talent, Kiba himself was not a disciple of a certain sect. For some reason, his parents did not allow him to join a sect. Instead, they both trained themselves Kiba since childhood.

“I? I'm from the Dragon Dojo.”

Hearing that, Kiba nodded. Meanwhile, Tarou looked surprised. Although each pillar had almost the same strength, but he clearly heard rumors that the figure of the Dragon Pillar was one of the strongest of the 12 Palace owners.

“Hey. Why are you so excited? Life in the dojo is not at all as exciting as you might think, you know? Not to mention that Old Man, cih .. he always punished me for doing trivial things.

Have you ever been soaked all night in a frozen river in winter? Have you ever been beaten with a variety of ferocious moves and not treated humanely? Old Man Shigekuni is that kind of person!

Even at any time, I will not forget those memories!”

Arthur's words clearly made Kiba and Tarou shocked. For them, a move would not be issued if not in a real fight. Even if they did battle training, they would not take it out in full. But looking at Arthur's expression, they knew that he had been beaten by Mr. Shigekuni in full force. Only, something surprised them.

How Arthur survived after going through such a thing is a mystery. They wanted to know, but did not dare to ask.

Only, they did not think whether what Arthur said was complete or not. If Mr. Shigekuni had heard it, he would have already vomited blood from anger. Clearly he had a compelling reason to beat up that brat.

Ditching the training, stealing some plants in the Dragon Dojo, and even having time to test some of the poison potions of his own seniors.

This has made many people feel that Arthur deserves to be beaten. Mr. Shigekuni obviously often beat him hard, only, the young man never gave up on such things at all. So in the end he beat Arthur with various styles to deter. It's just …

That young man was really harder to kill than a cockroach!

After a long journey, the horse carriage almost arrived at its destination. The horse-drawn carriage drove on the uphill road towards the hill. Around the hill, there was a lush forest. While on the hill, there was a fairly large village with dozens of houses.

However, the village was very quiet because there was not a single person living there. The place is also far from other villages, so it is rarely visited. Plus the gloomy aura around the village and the often foggy location, the place had actually already become a dead village.

The village itself now looked even more crowded as there were dozens of people who were there. They were all bodyguards from the city lord's mansion. There is also where Kiba's father is now.

After the train drove for some time, they all finally arrived …
