The Story of Demon Hunter

New Members

A few hours later.

“So, it turns out this little girl who guarded the village for almost thirty years? If that's true, it means he's older than us, boss. We can't call her a little girl.”

Jotaro looked at Arthur with a strange expression. Even if the woman looked like an 11 or 12-year-old girl, almost thirty years had passed since the night of the massacre. That means, the age of the woman is about 40 to 41 years.

“You're right.” Arthur stroked his chin. “Name Lily. Although she was said to be a mature woman, there was absolutely no change in her physique and mind. She was a typical little girl from an innocent village. In addition, it seems that he is also too obedient.”

“Are you planning to take him, Boss?”

“It ..” Arthur scratched his head. “Although it is quite easy to deal with naughty children, I am quite bad at teaching obedient children like him.”

“Then leave it alone?” ask Jotaro.

Hearing Jotaro's words, Arthur immediately looked towards Lily who was sitting on the stairs. After the red umbrella took off from her hands, the girl actually looked like a normal child. Yeah .. at least pretty normal.

Arthur walked up to the girl and squatted in front of her. Smiling, he asked.

“Do you want to come with us, Lily?”

“You look like an uncle trying to kidnap a little girl, Boss.”

“Shut!”

Arthur immediately got up while scratching his head. Looking at Lily who was looking at him with a blank expression, she was completely confused as to what to say.

“You did it the wrong way, Boss.”

Jotaro walked closer. After being near Lily, she began to introduce herself.

“Greetings, Lily. My name is Jotaro, and the person standing there is Arthur. We are a cultivator who ventured to hunt down evil demons. Same as-Ouch!”

“You're talking too much, Joe. You can't talk like that to a child. After all, to him, the evil spirit we are fighting is ... is his family and neighbors.”

Arthur took a long breath. The young man then stood in front of Lily. Looking at the girl who lost her emotions, she knew that the experience that happened on the night thirty years ago had a heavy weight on her mind. According to him, Lily is similar to a traumatized war victim, but not immediately experienced and rooted for decades.

Looking towards the little girl who was sitting still, Arthur was a bit angry from not expecting such a thing to happen in this world as well. He then said straightforwardly, without any persuasion or anything like that.

“Close with us, Lily. Your father, your mother, and all the people in the village have been released. They've all calmed down, and they'll want to see you happy, too.

Don't just sit in this place because everyone's gone. Out there, there were vast grasslands, high mountains, and limitless seas. A lot of things are waiting for you, so you can't just stay here.

They've all left, so stop being spoiled. Let them go without worry. Now, everything's fine. You need to stop being sad and go back.

It has been too long you have stopped in this place.”

Saying that, Arthur extended his hand.

Lily took Arthur's hand. With a teary face, the girl got up and walked after the young man without saying a word. Indirectly became the 3rd member of the 10th division that had recently been established.

“After not eating all day, why do we eat porridge that does not make full, Boss?”

Seeing Arthur cooking the porridge, Jotaro felt confused. Today, they had not eaten at all a full day. Usually, Arthur would choose to make something filling. But this time, the young man made porridge instead.

“We don't eat all day, but Lily hasn't eaten in years. Directly eating something hard will shock his stomach. So it is better to eat something soft and easy to digest like porridge.”

“Not eat for years ... is such a thing possible?” ask Jotaro.

“It may.”

Arthur nodded. In the previous world, there was also a diet that was fairly extreme from the Southeast Asian region, fasting and fasting for 40 days. Such a thing can be done by normal, but the risk is very high because many body functions will stop temporarily. Moreover, if the person could complete the ritual, they did not directly eat hard rice.

First of all, the person will be helped by his family to inhale the steam when the rice is cooked. The next day, the man began to eat the porridge. Once the person's stomach gets used to it, then he can eat normally as usual.

In the world of cultivators, Arthur was not at all surprised to see people who no longer ate after reaching a certain level because they could live just by meditating and absorbing the qi energy from nature to feed their bodies. Although there was something like that, he felt that such a thing was just a stupid act.

Just because they can do that, they throw away the delights of tasting various delicious foods all over the world. For a chef like Arthur, it was a stupid act!

“Time to eat, Lily.”

Arthur went to the tent to wake the little girl. He seemed to be fast asleep because he had not rested well for a very long time. Lily was crying all afternoon.

For Arthur, Lily is very powerful. It's not a matter of his level, but his mentality. Imagining a little girl bearing such emotional burdens for thirty years without complaining to anyone was obviously something extraordinary. If she becomes Lily, she may now be a crazy criminal going everywhere, controlling hundreds of evil spirits to carry out a massacre.

Lily finally woke up. The little girl rubbed her eyes. He then looked towards Arthur while tilting his head.

“Time to eat,” said Arthur with a gentle smile on his face.

Afterwards, Arthur takes Lily out to eat. Seeing the little girl only staring at the bowl of porridge with a puzzled face, Arthur let out a long sigh. He told the girl to inhale the steam first. After a while, the young man asked her to drink some warm soup. Then he started eating porridge.

Yes ... fed by Arthur.

‘Why does it feel like this 10th division head (me) is even a baby sitter?’

Seeing Lily's murky eyes begin to sparkle while eating, a thought came to Arthur's mind. The young man hurriedly shook his head. At that moment, he listened to Jotaro's voice.

“Is it okay to let him join the 10th division, Boss? I mean, if you're a member, Lily has to fight, too, right? It feels like the girl is completely unsuitable for fighting.”

“He is not suitable because he has not been given guidance. Lily was not weak at all. After all, despite looking like a beautiful and fragile puppet, he was a 5.”-star gold-level cultivator

“EH?” Jotaro.

At that time, Arthur once again added.

“True, Joe. Even after Lily joined, you are still the weakest in the 10.” division

Arthur's words instantly made Jotaro at a loss for words.
