The Demon Hunter

remains

"Ahem! Ahem!" Bazel crawled out of a pile of ruins, coughing and patting the dirt on his body, "I know why none of the people who took this task went back, it's not because they lost It’s because they feel that they can’t afford to lose face. This is not the job of adventurers, but the job of builders!”

This time their task is to find a handbook of an ancient magician from an ancient ruins. The client is a royal family of a certain country. I heard that they have entrusted many adventurers before, and there are also many magicians who have heard the news. Want to get the legendary codex before these adventurers.So a few days ago, it was really noisy for a long time.

However, Elvis and Bazel would never take up this kind of messy and lively work. Their purpose is not to fight and kill, but to travel around.But when the chaos subsided, the two of them received the mission invitation letter from the royal family again.

So this time, Bazel was tempted. This kind of task that no one would compete with them, but full of danger and excitement, met his requirements.

However, who would have thought that they have never encountered any dangerous things along the way-the dangerous species along the way have probably been cleaned up by their "precursors"-and when they arrived at the predetermined location on the map, they only saw A pile of broken bricks and stones.Moreover, judging from the remaining traces, all the dilapidated and desolate things are not the credit of those pioneers, but because they are so dilapidated and desolate in the first place.After all, for these buildings that have been too long and have not been repaired by humans, damage and collapse are their only way back.

-

Elvis didn't quite agree with Bazel's statement. While continuing to move the rocks obediently, he said, "Those people are indeed missing, and...don't you think this place is too clean?"

Not all adventurers are proud of their status and disdain to do some digging work.They have seen some adventurers with poor abilities. When they can't find a task, they will do ordinary people's work to supplement their families.Like coolies carrying goods, hunters, butchers, fishermen, etc., as long as they can make money, they will do it without hesitation.What's more, as long as they can find a book from these ruins, they will be able to live comfortably for the rest of their lives?

But although there are some traces of excavation here, there are too few, and on the road before, you can still see camps left by people after picnics and camping. However, in this place, there are no traces of human beings eating, sleeping or excreting.In addition, this place is obviously in the middle of a dense forest. It stands to reason that after so many years, these ruins should be covered by various plants, and should also be full of various animals, but this is not the case. This place is like a scar in the woods , not even a single piece of grass, and even bugs are rare.This is absolutely not normal.

"No matter what the problem is, I don't want to dig any more." Bazel walked up to Ivis, leaning against a slanted stone pillar, talking foolishly, but staring at Ivis' waist?Or the position below the waist...

Elvis moved two more stone bricks and stopped, and before he turned around, Bazel immediately averted his eyes.But after waiting for a long time, Elvis didn't continue talking, but looked in a certain direction and frowned: "What's wrong?"

"It's a bit strange." Elvis simply walked over.

"Huh?" Bazel followed of course.

-

Kneeling on one knee, Elvis moved a few stones and felt that the surroundings of these stones were cleaner than other stones.

"Really?" Bazel looked at it for a long time, and felt that it was still a stone buried in the soil, no different from other places, but since Elvis said so, it should be right, "It seems to be really clean, Is there something down here... Sure enough, there is something."

It was a skull, and an ordinary person would scream in horror, but for both of them, sitting in the pile of still bloody corpses could taste the sweetness of a barbecue, let alone just a completely dried one. bones?

However, there is only such a single skeleton in such a large area of ​​ruins, which is a bit too abrupt.In addition, if you feel it carefully, you can clearly feel that there is a powerful soul hidden in this seemingly dead thing.

"Get rid of it?" Bazel asked.

"Ah."

"Wait! Wait!" The skeleton, which was still lifeless, jumped up immediately. It was a miracle that he could jump up from Elvis's hand even though he had only one head. Life guy, or, at least before I die, tell me why I'm dying?"

"Because you are an undead." The two said in unison.

"..." After a brief silence, that skeleton... seemed to be crying?Even if he doesn't have a lacrimal gland, "How can this be? Are the undead about to die? Are the undead... are they not human?"

This is a problem. The undead are actually people, but they are just dead.

-

"Quite an interesting guy." Bazel smiled, grabbed the white skull of the skeleton and lifted him in front of him, "What's your name?"

"Parsons."

"Ivis, keep him, it's fun."

"Leave an undead? We will be hunted down..."

"This guy, it seems that you can hide your aura very well. Otherwise, it would be impossible to reach the level of you and me, so you can only feel something is wrong. Besides, it doesn't matter if you are hunted down. It's a bit boring recently."

Elvis sighed: "For you, as long as it's not boring, everything is fine."

"Originally, I would stay here, just because I am not bored."

"It's always a kid who won't grow up." Elvis smiled, "Okay, keep him, but you have to remember to be responsible."

"Of course! Not only will I feed him, but I will also teach him how to shit and pee properly!"

"..." This is an undead, not a pet dog. In addition, the undead doesn't seem to have that kind of function, right?

"Crying again? It's so interesting. It's the first time I've seen a skeleton that can cry, so I'll cry more~~"

Elvis helplessly looked at Bazel and laughed, but at the same time, he was sighing in his heart-it turns out that he stayed on the ground "only" because of boredom...
