The Story of Demon Hunter

I've Told You

At that moment, Arthur and Michael's gazes met each other. Suddenly, silence emerged between the two of them. Moments later, Michael ran straight towards Arthur with a smile on his face.

“It turns out you are also in this place, Arthur!”

“Who?”

Arthur immediately tilted his head, pretending to be unfamiliar with the handsome and narcissistic young man who rushed towards him.

“Come! Don't you miss me for not seeing you for a long time, man?”

Michael walked towards Arthur while opening his arms wide. Instead of being greeted warmly, Arthur instead took a few steps back with a look of disdain not hidden on his face.

Besides Michael, there were also six others. Four men and two women. One of the men was wearing the clothes of a Heavenly Pillar Sect core disciple, two men were wearing warrior clothes, and the rest were wearing beautiful clothes. The last man was clearly a noble.

There were also two women who wore beautiful clothes. From the looks of it, one of the women resembled a noble man. By looking at them alone, Arthur could instantly assess the situation.

‘Prince, princess, prince couple, two guards, and two heroes.’

Looking at that luxurious-looking line, Arthur stroked his chin. At the moment when he was about to say something, a male figure advanced. He immediately saluted by putting his hands together while bowing.

“Nice to meet you, Brother Arthur. My name is Sam, the designated person in the Pillar of Monkey. I heard a lot about you from Brother Michael. In addition, the story of how you killed a gold-level snake demon has spread widely.

I really admire your greatness.”

“...”

Arthur dumbfounded. He then glanced at Michael who instantly turned his face away. The young man also remembered Reyna's figure. He had clearly made a deal that he, the chef Arthur, had absolutely nothing to do with the events in White Stone Village!

‘These people ..’

Holding back his irritated feelings, Arthur tried to smile kindly. With the corner of his lips twitching, the young man said.

“You don't have to be so polite, Sam. You shouldn't trust people so easily, especially this person! Besides, I really don't know what you mean. What snake demon? I have never met such a creature.

I'm just a traveling chef. Absolutely does not have the ability to engage with such troublesome things.”

Arthur looked at Sam. Unlike Michael or some people who have the impression of being more mature than his age, Sam was clearly moved at the age of about 17 years. The young man was quite handsome, but also looked rather naive.

“Really? But according to the news delivered Miss Reyna, you have finished off the stealth-“

“Enough.” Arthur went straight up to the young man and patted both of his shoulders. “We should not talk about this kind of thing carelessly, let alone in public. Okay?”

“...”

Hearing Arthur's warning, Sam shut his mouth. He glanced around, and felt somewhat embarrassed when he saw the many people staring in their direction.

“Then let's go for tea? Since it's still on the ship, there's only one place we can go, right?” Michael persuaded with a smile on his face.

“If your friends do not mind, then I am also fine with your invitation.”

Michael immediately glanced at the four others. Seeing them nod gently, the young man looked towards Arthur then said with a smile on his face.

“Then let's go!”

They went together to order tea and snacks. Arthur, Michael, and Sam sit around the same table. The three nobles were at another table, while bodyguards stood around them to maintain security.

“Why do you think I'm going to hunt demons? I have absolutely no interest in that sort of thing!” arthur said in a annoyed tone.

“But you are the only person who made a striking achievement after coming out of the Heavenly Pillar Sect. Some other teams may have managed to hunt down the evil creatures, but only low-level. Some bronze-level keroco that is messed up but easy to clean.”

Michael said with a triumphant smile.

“Didn't I do it? Why are you so arrogant?” Arthur took a long breath. “Then what about you? Didn't you go to Sakura Kingdom? Why are you here?”

“Isn't this the border river between the three kingdoms? Why can't I be here?”

It is true, now Arthur is in the waterway that became the border of one quite large kingdom and a small kingdom. The three were Sakura Kingdom, Ume Kingdom, and Fuji Kingdom.

Previously, Arthur himself also toured the outskirts of the kingdom. But now he decides to head to the Fuji Kingdom, where Takahide's daughter is. In fact, compared to the more populous big cities, Arthur himself preferred to be in border areas close to dangerous places, but many opportunities.

After all, Arthur is really tired of facing some tricks done by humans.

“You should travel between cities to eliminate the evil creatures in the kingdom to make ‘dia’ happy, right? Why bother going to the border? If my guess is correct ..” Arthur whispers. “Supervision mission, huh?”

“You're sharp as always, Arthur.”

“Why would you do such a thing? Things with a political stench have absolutely nothing to do with us, right? You shouldn't have to do such troublesome things.”

Arthur said in an indifferent tone. He did not care at all about that prince or princess of the Sakura Kingdom. Those three nobles were definitely not cultivators. While the two guards were indeed cultivators, but in their mid-twenties, they reached the level of 3-star silver. In an ordinary kingdom, it was already strong. Yet compared to the disciples in the 12 dojo of the Heavenly Pillar Sect ...

They really are nothing.

“Hey, you can't be that cruel, Arthur. Even if you are a cultivator, you should also appreciate ordinary people, right?” Michael put a wry smile on his face.

“I don't really care whether those people are cultivators or not. I also don't really care whether they are nobles or commoners. I'm just saying that I don't like getting involved with troublesome things.”

Swooshes! Klang's!

A knife was thrown towards the prince, but it was immediately parried by one of the guards. Just then, several figures in all-black clothes and wearing masks appeared. They all went around the place.

“Didn't we go secretly? How could the news possibly be leaked?”

The prince nodded slowly. Seeing the many people surrounding them, his expression became even more solemn. He even looked nervous.

At that moment, Arthur got up from his chair and raised both hands and said.

“If I say that I have nothing to do with them, can you let me go?”

Hearing the question then looking towards the tired and bored face on Arthur's face, the assassins glanced at each other. A moment later, the figure who seemed to be leading said firmly.

“Do not try to fool us! Stop putting up a fight, then I will send you away quickly!”

Instead of being as nervous as the nobles and guards, Arthur let out a long sigh and glanced at his best friend with an annoyed expression.

“I told you, right? It's really troublesome!”
