God-level Demon Hunter

His tone was decisive, and flames ignited in his gray eyes, "Ava, my children, nothing can hurt them!"

……

"I gave Flandon a sum of money for his life, and I called him to this secret room...I killed him, and before he died, I broke his bones one by one, and listened to him wailing and begging for mercy for two whole days. Hours...Unfortunately, my mood hasn't changed." One moment a happy smile appeared on the corner of the man's mouth, but the next moment, it was replaced by indifference.

"I think it's too simple. Torturing and killing an ordinary person doesn't make Ortolan feel guilty or sad. Thousands of in vivo experiments in the past are enough to prove my hard heart, and the only thing I care about is only Ava and the baby."

"For the first time, I felt that a strong heart is also a sin."

……

"In April 1263, I was looking for a way out in the library of Master Long Essett. I met a prostitute on the street. At first glance, I mistakenly thought she was Ava. Her back, face shape, nose, Exactly like Ava."

"I thought of a way to deceive myself... I gave her a lot of money, left it to the family, and took her back to Indalsfair... I spent two weeks with her, and I had a little bit of a crush on her. Favor, always inadvertently confused her with Ava, it was time to act - I took her to the Chamber of Secrets, tortured and killed her."

"At that moment, I experienced emotions that I hadn't experienced for hundreds of years-guilt, pain..."

"The more guilty and painful, the bigger the hole in the heart - I approached Ava again after I got home, as expected, 'Dart' was moved, I could feel the chaotic energy in the air, as it was about to move .”

"But it's not enough. This cunning evil spirit was worried that it would not be able to conquer my will and soul, so it didn't attack easily."

……

"January 1262."

"I paid favors and most of my savings to find two other fake 'Avas'. My behavior is really ridiculous. A mage who takes magic exploration and truth as his ultimate ideals ends up deceiving himself." In the video The man's smile is full of bitterness...but his eyes are firm and calm.

"I followed the old method, spent some time with them, treated them as Ava, developed a certain relationship, and then tortured and killed them again."

Click, the effect goes out and rekindles.

The man's appearance changed drastically, becoming unkempt, and his simple and elegant robe became crumpled and muddy. He grinned, sometimes crying, sometimes grinning,

"Haha... Hurt my 'loved one' with my own hands... Haha, sad, guilty, painful... Every cut on her is like cutting myself, and sending my child away with my own hands."

"I rushed home when I was weakest, and Ava committed suicide. Fortunately, the necklace stared at her for me...Fortunately, my method worked, and I was 'weak' enough...'Dart' without hesitation Leaving Ava's emaciated body, and possessing me, its creator, its most hated enemy!"

"I succeeded, haha! This disgusting evil spirit can no longer threaten Ava and my children! I don't feel too special, maybe I'm too pessimistic, Dart can't control me!"

He laughed like crazy, but a gleam appeared in the corner of his eyes,

"I started healing Ava with spells!"

"If I can hold on and not be affected by Dart, then I can walk with her and watch the baby be born. Decades are too short for me."

"I don't have to snub Ava anymore. I even told her the names of the children. The boy is called Asaph, and the girl is called Dora!"

……

The eyeballs in the projection are protruding, and the man with a sick face caresses the air affectionately, making a gesture of holding a child in his arms, like a psychopath.

"Let me stay with you again, Ava, my child..."

"It's a pity... how happy I was when I created Dart, how maddened it was when it hurt me! My will, which was already close to collapse, was destroyed and captured by it. It kept weaving illusions to me, manipulating my dreams, and making me mentally I was in a trance. I was boiling with guilt and negativity."

"I've only been with Ava for three days, and I can't control my actions. I woke up from the meditation, and I actually stood in front of Ava with a knife pointing at her belly. It was only an inch away. If It wasn't the restlessness in my heart that woke me up, I had already killed Ava and the child with my own hands."

"Dart reads my mind, knows my weaknesses, and it's going to make me suffer more, to destroy my favorites with my own hands."

"But how can I make that evil spirit come true?" The mage grinned wildly, bared his white teeth, and growled hoarsely. "I'm going to destroy it with my own hands!"

"I left home and returned to this secret room...sealed myself and Dart."

"As its creator, I know very well that there are only two ways to destroy it—either drive it out of the body for a long time, and then kill it, but it will never let me go, nothing can More attractive than me."

The man in the image sat cross-legged in this secret room, and suddenly raised his head. There was only despair and determination on his thin, morbid and pale face.

"So I only have the second way, disappear with it!"

"But I can't commit suicide...Physical death, it can devour my soul more easily, it will become stronger, get out of the magic circle, and go back to hurt Ava."

"I have to destroy the soul with this parasite."

"Anyway, I have lived for more than 300 years, and I have already lived enough, so I should end my retirement life early."

"I have to find a safe way."

……

"In June 1262, Italan contacted me. He said he had a method of 'destroying body and spirit', which he said was especially suitable for a sinner like me." The man in the projection no longer had the calmness of a mage. , and personable, skinny, with protruding cheekbones, and covered with tattered cloth strips, in this dark laboratory, like a humanoid ghost, with cheeks full of bones showing an extremely gentle expression, staring behind the light curtain , whispered,

"My child... If you can find this pool, break the illusion and enter this secret room, it means that you are smart enough. When you open the image crystal, it means that you have inherited my magical talent."

"You can choose to take the amulet and go to the Ben Ade Academy in Kaedwin to enroll at your own expense. The check in the silk bag can be exchanged for [-] kronor at any Vivaldi bank, enough for your five years of tuition, or you can choose Use it to live an ordinary and happy life for ordinary people."

"Finally, I want to tell you that the most correct thing I did in my life was to marry your mother Ava. She should have remarried by now and reorganized a happy family. Several men in the village have a crush on her. Ai Ji , Fahd... But I think according to her personality, she should marry the honest and responsible Fahd. She deserves a better husband!"

"Hahaha!"

The man was crying and laughing like a lunatic, and suddenly put his face in front of the light curtain, only a piece of paper away from the witcher, and the bloodshot eyeballs covered with sandworms stared deeply at him, at least for a while. ten seconds.

As if to penetrate time and space, to see the unborn child at that time.

Two teardrops slid down the corners of his eyes.

The witcher held his breath.

"Son, the greatest achievement in my life is creating you!

It's almost time, I should be on my way...

Love you forever, cruel Ortoran..."

Kaz...

The image is completely annihilated.

The Chamber of Secrets returned to darkness.

The demon hunter sighed, "It's completely different from my guess."

Chapter 20 Speculation and the Night Visitor

A dark chamber.

The witcher stared at the image crystal in the binoculars in a daze.

"The ruthless Ortolan, a 300-year-old master in the field of biological modification, finally sacrificed himself for his wife and children. It's really ironic."

This is completely contrary to his speculation, he did not expect such a tortuous story behind it.

"Seeing and reasoning are not necessarily true. It is a lesson for me."

But he had mixed feelings about the master.

In order to save his wife, he brutally tortured and killed four innocent people. Ortolan based his salvation on the despair of others. His behavior was completely wrong. This is a twisted love!

But another voice told the witcher that Ortoran had paid for his life, and it was a fair deal.

But how can money be equated with life?

Roy shook his head, getting rid of the chaotic thoughts in his mind.

Focusing on the present moment, the most important purpose of his trip - to find out the news and whereabouts of Italan from the laboratory.

"According to the analysis of the last paragraph, Italan provided a method of annihilation. Ortoran should have left Indalsfair Island to meet him, but unfortunately did not mention the exact location."

"Did Ortoran finally get his wish?"

Did the archmage and the evil spirit called "Dart" die together?

What exactly does the method provided by Italan refer to?

Sinners, annihilation of body and soul...

Roy felt a strange familiarity.

Just a few months ago, the experience of Mayenne in the north of Soden recurred in my mind-the grain merchant full of crimes was annihilated by the red energy field, and his servant Mato was burned by red flames in front of Roy Mostly.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt it was possible. The whereabouts of the four great masters were secretive, and the red light appeared without warning. Even the master of the Druid Ring couldn't find a clue.

"Let's assume that Mayena's series of abnormalities are all written by Italan and the four great masters."

"The reason why they enter and exit the battlefield and collect souls is also for the lofty ideal of purifying the world of evil?"

But this is too naive and idealistic!

In this world, there is good and there must be evil, and the two are relative. Extreme good or extreme evil, in Roy's view, is a kind of imbalance in the world.

The witcher took a deep breath and didn't go any further. He couldn't find Italan, and his hypothesis was useless!

……

Five minutes later, he put the four corpses into the storage space, took off the silk bag containing the money notes, hesitated for a while, and returned them to their original places.

Take the guardian pendant on the magic seal door and leave the secret room.

A crescent moon rose into the night sky, and the moonlight shone through the gaps in the forest and reflected the entire pond.

"Ah, baby, my mead, come here, let me kiss your little mouth again."

The young tour guide hugged the willow tree and squirmed and kissed... With a series of sweet words in his mouth, his saliva was dripping, and he seemed to regard the willow tree as his dream lover.

The witcher shook his head and smiled, and dug a large pit nearby with his steel sword, and buried the four dead in peace.

After a snap of the fingers.

"Hmm... Me, what happened to me just now?" Clotte wiped the stinky saliva from the corner of his mouth and the snot blown by the night wind, looked at the moon in the sky with a confused face, and scratched his sore crotch.

"Young people sleep quite well..." the witcher nodded at him, "You can also fall asleep while sitting by the pond, and you sleep very deeply and soundly, so I didn't bother you."

"I'm sorry, I must have walked too much with you today, I almost limped, and I was too tired. By the way, what did you find?"

Roy thought for a while and nodded.

"I found the mark left by Ortolan. He has returned to Long Exeter and continued to be a rich man. I am afraid he has married another wife."

"Let me just say, that guy is a big carrot!"

……

The soft moonlight shrouded Lovten Village, as if there was a bright mist surging between the houses and the road.

There were dogs barking and insects chirping in the yard.

A quiet and peaceful farm style.

Roy came outside the red house again, but this time he didn't knock on the door. He looked in through the gap in the window, and the bright yellow firelight illuminated a warm home—a woman with tied hair and a gray apron. The hostess Ava smiled and stirred the iron pot on the bonfire, and the smell of meat and vegetables drifted out of the window along with the boiling heat.

Another tall man in a plain linen coat was beside her, holding the baby in swaddling high, with a happy and happy smile on his honest and honest face,

"Haha, Asa, do you miss Dad?" He poked the baby's little nose, and rubbed the baby's delicate face with the rough stubble of his chin.

"Cuckoo..."

"Be gentle!" the woman said coquettishly, "Poke Yasa into a flat nose, and I won't be able to find a wife in the future!"

"Haha, as long as he learns the fishing skills from me, he will never worry about marrying a wife!"

"What's the point of being a fisherman all your life? When you were 30 years old, you were still single? You were the stupidest person in the village!"

"Nonsense! Didn't I marry such a beautiful woman as you? You are ingenious and virtuous. This is the wise arrangement of God Freya!"

A shy red glow flashed across the woman's face, her beauty was astonishing.

"Honey, look, the little guy is smiling at me, it's so cute, hehe, uh--you're trying to keep Dad? I promise, I'll stay at home to play with you tomorrow!"

"Giggle!"

The witcher watched the warm scene in the house silently, his eyes flicked over the bright smiling faces of the men and women in the house, his heart felt a little sour for no reason, and the night wind made his back feel chilly.

"Ava, you never know what price and sacrifice the man you hate and unforgettable has paid for you and your child. But you can live happily ever after knowing nothing about it."

Asaph is just an ordinary baby with no magical talent, so there is no need to know the twisted story behind it.

The witchers don't want to break their peaceful life.

After thinking for a while, his right hand quietly reached into the wooden guardrail of the window, and put the priceless but inconspicuous necklace on the window sill.

He turned and left without hesitation.

……

"By the way, dear, where is the necklace around the child's neck?"

"Ah? I remember I took it off and scrubbed it for him. Is it drying on the window sill? Let me look for it?"
