Thanks for the invitation, I am in the state of collapse, brushing attribute upgrade

Gwyn needs to make sure that Yae Sakura in front of him knows everything and is facing the torture of Feiyumaru again and again?

Or does she know nothing about anything and is just a toy in Feiyukumaru's script, a tool for torturing Yaesakura who is looking at her?

The argument between the two attracted the attention of Mei and Kiana, who were staring at each other, and both of their eyes looked over here.

However, considering the presence of the person opposite them, neither of them spoke.

In this strange silence, the atmosphere in the shrine grew heavier, as if an invisible pressure fell on everyone, making it increasingly difficult to speak.

Just as Gwyn and Yae Sakura stared at each other, carefully observing each other's expressions, trying to come up with an answer, a voice suddenly sounded from behind -

"Sakura, what happened?"

Instantly, Yae Sakura's cold face softened. She turned around and walked quickly towards the white-haired girl who appeared at the door of the room, and said with concern,

"Karen, why did you come out?

Didn’t I tell you to rest more?”

"Don't worry, I'm much better now. I just heard something strange outside, so I came out to take a look."

Kallen waved her hand, avoiding Yaesakura's support, indicating that she was fine now, and looked past Yaesakura and towards the back.

Upon seeing this, the smile on Kallen's face froze instantly——

She was very familiar with this face.

If she hadn't noticed that Gwyn didn't have blond hair and blue eyes like Otto, but had white hair and blue eyes like herself, and that he looked much stronger than Otto, Kallen would have almost blurted out Otto's name.

Yaezakura also quickly noticed the abnormality in Kallen's expression and asked with concern:

"Karen, what's wrong with you?"

Following Kallen's gaze, Yae Sakura saw that she was staring at Gwyn, and her heart trembled -

Yae Sakura hadn't realized it just now, but only now did she notice that Gwyn had the same white hair and blue eyes as Kallen. No wonder she felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity just now.

But... Kallen also said that there were pursuers behind her, and she needed to escape quickly...

So, this so-called Jingtian Jinglong is Kallen's pursuer?

Even though she knew that everything in front of her was an illusion created by Feiyumaru, Yae Sakura still felt murderous intent in her heart. She stood in front of Kallen, wary of Gwyn who was still holding the knife.

However, facing Yaezakura's hostility, Gwen simply ignored it and looked Kallen up and down——

Although she was dressed like a village woman now, Karen still had a special temperament that was different from ordinary rural women.

That kind of positive spirit that comes from within is not something that an ordinary peasant woman can possess.

Similarly, Kallen, who barely managed to stop herself from saying "Otto", was also sizing up Gwyn.

Like Yae Sakura, Kallen also suspected that Gwyn was a pursuer sent by destiny.

"Ying, this gentleman is..."

After staring at each other for a moment, Kallen slowly withdrew her gaze and looked at Yae Sakura in front of her, asking in a low voice.

"This gentleman claims to be the demon exorcist Jingtian Jinglong. He heard that there are demons near Yae Village, so he came here to exorcise them."

Yae Sakura answered Kallen's questions very straightforwardly, telling her the information that Kallen could get by asking.

"Exorcist?"

Hearing Yaezakura's words, Kallen's eyes immediately lit up -

Didn't she travel all the way from Europe to China just to solve the monster in the black box?

It's a pity that the Red Kite Immortal has disappeared, so Kallen has to cross the ocean and come to the Far East to avoid those who are chasing her.

"My humble name is Jingtian Jinglong. I feel for the suffering of the people of the world, so I travel the world. I can't say I'm going to slay demons and monsters, but I can do my best to help them."

Hearing Kallen's question to Sakura, Gwen held his sword and clasped his fists, introducing himself, but he seemed hesitant.

"I wonder if your Excellency is..."

"Sir, just call me Kallen."

Seeing this, Kallen clasped her fists in return and gave her name. However, considering she still needed to avoid the pursuers, Kallen did not give her full name. Instead, she asked curiously,

"I wonder if you have ever killed any demons, sir?"

Although she was very eager to destroy the demon in the box, Kallen was also worried about encountering a scammer, so she wanted to first see the quality of Gwyn, the demon exorcist.

If this demon hunter really has some skills, then...

Chapter 209: Living in the same room with Yae Sakura

"They are just some wild ghosts in the mountains. Their strength is not that strong, but their hearts are evil."

Gwyn, who only knew about Sukina and Rengui, naturally couldn't say anything. He just sighed and passed by Kallen's question, but his eyes were fixed on Kallen, and his right hand was tightly gripping the hilt of the sword, the meaning was self-evident.

"But this... young lady, have you come into contact with any evil things these days?

From you, I sense a sinister aura..."

"!"

Hearing this, Kallen couldn't help but widen her eyes slightly, a look of surprise on her face.

However, although Kallen, who had encountered many scammers along the way, had been exposed, she still managed to maintain her composure and slowly shook her head.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Exorcist, I've been staying at the shrine to recuperate recently and haven't had any contact with any demons—"

If you are here to exorcise demons, sir, I might be able to help."

"Oh, I'd love to hear the details."

Gwyn, who didn't expect to gain anything from Kallen, remained expressionless and showed an interested expression.

“I encountered some demons along the way.

If you are interested, you can go seven miles east. There are several porcupines in the mountains that have transformed into demons."

Kallen wanted to test whether the man in front of her was a real demon hunter or a fake one. The easiest way was to let him fight some demons to test his quality.

"Thanks for letting me know."

Gwen also heard the tentative intention of Kallen, clasped his fists and saluted, and prepared to clean up the demon pig that Kallen mentioned -

As expected, it was a beast infected with Honkai energy, the monster that Gwyn used to practice.

However, just as Gwen turned to leave, he was stopped by Kallen.

"Please wait a moment, sir."

"Are there other demons?"

Gwen paused, looked over with suspicion, and saw Kallen's hesitant expression.

"No... I have an unwelcome request—

Excuse me, sir, who are you from?"

"what……"

Hearing this, Gwen's heart moved, but he only uttered a low laugh.

“Although my appearance is very different from others, I was born and raised on this land.

Born and raised here, it’s natural that I should do something for this place…”

With that, Gwen turned around and started to leave.

However, two figures were seen leaving the shrine side by side.

Although they were walking side by side, the confrontational atmosphere between them made it impossible for anyone to think that they had a friendly relationship and were ready to travel together.

From a distance, Gwen could hear the conversation between the two—

"Humph!

Let’s see who can kill more monsters!”

"I just know it won't be you!"

Apparently, the two had also heard what Kallen had said before and were ready to use those demons for a test.

"..."

Helplessly he stopped again and turned to look at Kallen.

"Miss Kallen, do you know the whereabouts of other demons?"

“Oh, yes…”

Kallen looked at the two people who disappeared at the entrance of the shrine, and realized what had happened. She then told the location of another forest with signs of collapse.

Soon, Gwyn also disappeared in the shrine, leaving only Kallen and Yae Sakura there.

"Karen, that person is..."

After Gwyn was estimated to have walked away, Yaezakura finally spoke, looking at Kallen with some concern.

"..."

Kallen slowly shook her head, a worried look on her face.

"I'm not sure either... I can only hope that he really is a powerful demon slayer..."

"Um……"

Yaezakura just nodded slowly, with no emotion visible on her face, but she sighed in her heart——

After all, it is just an illusion in a dream. How can it possibly defeat the demon that created this dream?

In this dream that lasted for who knows how long, Yaesakura had encountered new scripts created by Kiryuumaru to make her emotionally collapse.

But when the dream ends, everything will return to nothingness, allowing Yaezakura to calmly face the sudden "variables"...

On the other side, although Gwyn was only facing some beasts that he would have considered weak even if he had practiced with them two years ago, he was not careless at all.

On the one hand, the weapon in his hand was not suitable for him, and on the other hand, Gwyn was also worried that Feiyuwan would suddenly strengthen the rat that could be killed by one hand into some kind of numerical monster to trick him.

After all, it seems that Kiana, Mei and even Raven have had their memories blocked, but his memory is almost unaffected.

As long as Gwyn had not unconsciously ignored the influence of the Scarlet Prison Pill and had not been discovered by the other party, there was no reason for the Scarlet Prison Pill not to target him.

And the fact was not beyond Gwen's expectation -

Just when Gwyn successfully found and wiped out the wolf pack in the mountains, a lame wolf cub howled and suddenly expanded to more than ten meters tall, and one step was enough to destroy a house.

After Gwyn showed a look of surprise, he "hardly" defeated the mutated wolf cub after a hard fight.

When Gwyn returned to the Yae Shrine, Yae Sakura and Kallen saw a man walking slowly towards them, his tattered clothes stained with blood, holding a broken sword in his hand, but his steps were still firm.

"Mr. Ida!"

Karin, who had originally thought that if Gwen had real skills, there would be no problem, and if he was just lying, he would just leave honestly, exclaimed when she saw this and wanted to support Gwen.

However, Kallen herself was still a patient, and was pinned down by Yae Sakura—

"Karen, you're still injured. Don't move. Leave it to me."

As she spoke, Yaezakura quickly walked towards Gwen, wanting to help him into the room for treatment.

"Mr. Iida, where are you injured? How did you get injured?

I have some herbs here that might be helpful to you."

"It's nothing, just some minor injuries."

Gwen did not reject Yaezakura's kindness, but explained,

"If you have any herbs, please bring some.

I'll clean the wound and apply the medicine."

"There's hot water in the back, please follow me."

Upon hearing this, even though she knew it was fake, Yaezakura couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and supported Gwen as they walked back.

On the side, the duo with glaring eyes who had returned early just glanced at them and then looked away.

"Ugh……"
