Blood of the Hunting God

It was once heard from my mother, the song she once sang.

The song that once echoed on that old road has not sounded for a long time now.

【You battled hard, the war is won~? (You fought hard, the war is won~?)】

Word by word, Abigail just sang softly.

The girl's soft singing voice flowed slowly at this moment.

【You die your worst, you try your best~? (You do your best, you try everything)】

Disma closed his eyes again, and closed his eyes amidst the singing.

It was as if there was a little hand holding him like this, leading him forward, leading him slowly back to that old road.

【Now is time to rest~? (Now, it's time to rest)】

Through the dark forest that once dreaded.

Passed through the old road that was covered by bushes and no one had stepped on it.

【Now is time to rest~? (Now, it's time to rest)】

Then, he arrived at the door of the house and stood in front of the door.

step-step-

Did you hear something?

When I looked up, what I saw was the house that should have been dilapidated, and it had returned to its former appearance in memory.

The sound of rattling wheels sounded behind him.

When he turned around, he seemed to see the carriage that had been following him.

The carriage that followed him all the time, but turned around now, and the figures that used to walk behind him, but are now gradually moving away.

Own……

This is at……

Squeak!

Gently, the door was pushed open like this. "

Turning his head, he saw the familiar figure again, the one smiling at him, her figure.

"What are you doing outside the door? The food is going to be cold."

Once again, I heard her voice.

"Mother……"

He wanted to take a step forward, but stopped again.

It seems that he can't believe what he sees in front of him, and he seems to have no way to get close to the figure in front of him.

"Okay, okay, it's over."

Then, as always, he was hugged gently by the other party.

"I know you've come a long way."

"I know you've been through a lot."

"Now, all this is no longer necessary to think about."

"You've gone home."

"That's it, have a good rest."

Familiar, felt her touch.

I thought I had forgotten it, but now I find the touch that has been deeply remembered in my heart.

They held hands, just like they used to hold hands, and walked into the familiar house.

The children were running with laughter, Jason and Liz were sitting at the table smiling at themselves, those familiar faces emerged one after another, waiting for me here, on this long old road At the end, silently waiting for his arrival.

what……

It turns out that I...

Have you found the redemption I long for...

At the end of this lost time, after finally returning to the old road in memory, have I finally obtained my own salvation...

……

Close your eyes.

Just fell asleep without waking up.

Disma stopped his breath while smiling, and just like that, fell asleep in the twilight of countless white flowers.

Abigail stopped singing softly, lowered her head, and watched the man's final appearance.A shattering sound sounded behind her, and a certain kind of shock swept through at this moment, spreading outward continuously, spreading towards the entire corrupt field.

At this moment, one of the limbs of the filthy thing that has occupied the world for thousands of years is permanently crushed.

Countless white petals danced and fell with the shock.

Abigail turned her head and saw the hunter walking out of the huge blooming flowers, standing up and facing him.

And behind her, Disma, who was sleeping peacefully, was covered with fallen petals, as if covered with a layer of quilt, and continued her long sleep, continuing to the end of the old road. Yes, that finally obtained a peaceful dream that never wakes up again.

Chapter 190 Four: The Survivors

The soft moonlight fell on the land that calmed down the madness.

And in the forest, in the ruined town in the forest, Elsaac wiped the sweat from his forehead, walked out of his temporary kitchen, and looked at the sky outside.

"Already, is it over?"

Although I didn't see anything that could be called a sign.

But, indeed, at that moment just now, I felt some kind of strange shock spreading.

And after feeling this shock, he instinctively felt this way.

The battle is over.

The gods have rested.

The filth in this field has subsided.

"They... did it..."

Klein Tinger, who followed from the kitchen next to him, also opened his mouth with emotion at this moment.

"Did everyone win? Has it been confirmed?!"

Woodlonona seemed a little unbelievable, looked at the two chefs at this moment, and asked in a trembling voice.

"Well, I did win. You can tell by looking outside and looking at those trees."

Fetris, who came out of the temporary medical point, pointed to the black forest outside the ruined town while talking.

At this moment, those trees are fading their pitch-black color, and gradually returning to their original lush emerald green color.

The heaviness that lingered all the time gradually faded away, as if a shadow that had always existed in this forest had left.

"At this moment, hunter heroes, a real victory has been achieved."

Anastasia said softly, she looked at the gloomy forest, as if she saw the companions who died on the way to here, lowered her head, stretched out her hand, and slowly made a mourning etiquette Come.

The other people seemed to have realized something at this moment, and they also mourned the forest.

This silent mourning did not last too long, and soon, they turned around and looked in the direction of the Old God's Garden.

Elsaac, Klein Tinger, Woodlonona, Fetris and Anastas, the remaining five logistics personnel of the Hunting God Squad, just looked at the front, and those fighters went forward Go in the direction of the gate of the Garden of the Old Gods.

"Then, it's time to welcome the returning hero. Mr. Elsaac, Mr. Claytonal, and Mr. Woodrona, I ask you to go there first. As physicians, Fetris and I must immediately Go back to the medical room and get all kinds of first aid items. It is certain that there will be many wounded among the surviving hunters, and they must be treated as soon as possible. We will follow you in a while and go to the Garden of the Old Gods to treat the wounded."

As Anastas said, she signaled Fetris and herself to return to the temporary medical room as soon as possible.

Although the two doctors had no fighting ability, they had to say that the consciousness of the team's actions was quite clear, and they were able to quickly realize what they needed to do, and act without hesitation.

"Then, let's also start to act here. It is best to prepare a few stretchers. I am not sure how bad the number of wounded and the situation are."

Elsaac said so, and then acted.

The three of them prepared a few simple stretchers to carry on their backs, and marched towards the gate of the Garden of the Old Gods.

It was also at this time that Woodrona raised his head thoughtfully, and looked at the thin layer of white mist covering the sky above the abandoned town.

Obviously the goddess of the earth has been wiped out, but the fog of the seal does not appear to be dissipating.

Speaking of which, the same is true at the Old God's Garden. Although the mist has turned white and looks a little different from before, the mist itself still exists, and it has not dissipated with the dissipation of the filthy power.

Why is this?

Doubt spread in Woodlonona's heart, but this is not the time to think about it, so he just kept silent, and continued to follow the two logistics chefs towards the interior of the Garden of the Old Gods .

At the same time as the left-behind support staff started to move, the hunters in the cave were also moving slowly.

"Damn...it feels like all the bones in my body are about to break..."

The limping Tardiff was cursing, and helped William, whose eyes were injured, to walk forward. The hound Fergus was leading the way in front, ensuring that the group of disabled hunters could walk in the right direction. on the road.

"Hunter Your Excellency, have they won the final victory?"

Baldwin, who was supporting each other with Leorin and Karnis, asked weakly at this moment.

"It should be like this, otherwise this kind of change would not be possible here, and everyone felt the shock just now. The hunters have already won, and the filth has subsided."

With Edra's support, Stickley spoke, his voice full of reverence for the hunter.

This long journey has finally come to an end.

Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

At first Tardiv still wanted to find the hunters, but under Edra's suggestion, they finally walked towards the entrance of the cave.After all, this group of people has been hurt badly, and how to leave is a big problem at that time.What is certain is that the logistical medical staff will definitely arrive as soon as possible after discovering that the filthy power has dissipated, but with the physical fitness of the two doctors, it is not easy to find the hunters through the complex terrain of the Lost Cave , so it is best for them to arrive near the entrance of the cave first, so that the doctors who arrive can treat people as soon as possible, saving time and energy.

"However, we can only stop at the entrance at most. Just like our current group of people, it is impossible to climb that slope."

curse

Tardif spoke helplessly.

"It's good to survive, don't think too much."

Karnis at the back shook his head and said, with a somewhat emotional expression on his face.

"I just don't know what's going on with Your Excellency the Hunter."

Baldwin was still a little worried about the situation below.

"The hunter is definitely fine. After all, he is so powerful, but he may be a little lost, and he won't be able to get up for a while, right?"

Stickley said with a thoughtful expression, seemingly not worried about the possibility of hunters being in danger at all.

The hound continued to walk at the forefront, guiding the way for the people behind with torches.

People throw burning stones on the ground, and use the light emitted by these small stones to guide the way for hunters who may be behind.

Slowly, they approached the entrance of the cave without encountering any filthy monsters in the process.

From a distance, one could see the shimmering light projected from the cave above, silently telling the hunters the result of the battle and the final victory they had achieved.

"Mr. Tardiff, and everyone! How are you?"

Arriving here one step ahead, Elsaac, who was standing at the entrance of the cave above, took a breath, wiped off the sweat from passing through the complicated terrain, and shouted loudly at the hunters below the cave said.

"We're fine, we're still panting. Are the two doctors here? We have a lot of wounded here."

Tardiff raised his head and yelled at it too.

"Your Excellency Fetris and Anastas will be here soon, hold on a little longer, and I'll look for a convenient place to get on and off!"

Elsaac shouted while looking around.

"Okay, then hurry up!"

After replying, Tardiff supported William and sat down on the floor. Others also sat down in this relatively flat grotto, waiting for the logistics personnel above to come down.
