Demon Hunter and His Cabin
Chapter 391 - Chapter 391 Chapter 391 Arrival at Mist City

Chapter 391: Chapter 391 Arrival at Mist City Chapter 391: Chapter 391 Arrival at Mist City Mist City.

As the capital of Engelman, this city encapsulated the entire nation’s historical ambiance and cultural heritage.

The first time Roger came here, he was drawn to the city’s unique aura, his sunglasses shielding his pupils which had changed after activating Hunter Vision.

In the surging crowd, one could occasionally spot a member of a Non-Human Race and Transcendent Beings hiding among ordinary people.

The boundary between Transcendent and reality was so blurred that it actually made Roger somewhat uncomfortable.

“Don’t be surprised, this place is extremely unique in all of Europe.”

Having left Eld, Goway seemed to be in a slightly better mood.

One with a shocked spirit, another with a beaten body, Roger thought his so-called Demon Hunting Squad was really quite odd.

Not long after getting off the plane, Roger saw Veronica who had come to pick him up.

The girl drove a massive steel behemoth, her body voluptuous and mature under her short skirt. She looked somewhat haggard, but upon seeing Roger, she couldn’t help but step forward and give him a big hug.

Her red lips left a mark on Roger’s cheek, “Finally seeing you.”

“Hehe.”

Without looking back, Roger could guess who had made that sound.

But immediately after, there was also Henrik’s cough.

“Buddy, don’t blame me for not warning you, think carefully about whose turf this is.”

“Who is this handsome guy?” Veronica asked with a smile.

“Haha, you don’t recognize me?”

Henrik puffed out his chest, “Remember last time at the villa…”

“Engelman, you got a sex change?” Seeing Henrik’s face turn ashen, Veronica laughed so hard she doubled over, “Just kidding, but I really didn’t expect you to turn out like this.”

“Long time no see, Henrik!”

“Welcome to my turf, I’ll take the chance to show you the passion of European girls.”

“As for you…”

She glanced at Roger.

“You have me, that’s enough.”

“No, for the sake of our acquaintance, I advise you to keep your distance from him,” Henrik said to Veronica with a serious face.

“The European headquarters of the Sorcerer Academy are located in Mist City. Roger, think carefully, some people, when they get angry, can really burn everything around them to the ground!”

Veronica caught the implication in Henrik’s words and looked at Roger with a slight surprise, “Is your girlfriend here? You can introduce me.”

“We might be able to exchange some insights.”

“Insights, what insights?”

Goway widened her eyes in confusion and scrutinized Veronica, “Are you a female sorceress too?”

“What female sorceress?”

Veronica was completely baffled.

Henrik, standing by the side, couldn’t help but want to laugh; he clearly understood what kind of insights Veronica wanted to exchange with Amanda.

Roger, who haven’t spoken until now, shrugged his shoulders.

“Don’t look at me, there’s nothing between her and me.”

“Besides, Amanda doesn’t acknowledge being my girlfriend.”

Veronica added with a smile, “For now.”

She looked at Henrik, “I am actually quite looking forward to seeing that girl get angry.” She said nonchalantly.

“How scary can it be? It’s not like she could burn me alive, right?”

Henrik considered for a moment and then nodded.

“Trust me, she would!”

Henrik was serious, but Veronica obviously didn’t take it to heart. She wrapped her arm around Roger’s and led him to the front passenger seat.

“Let’s go, we can talk as we move.”

“I guess you are the only one who can help me with this.”

Apart from Goway and Veronica, the rest weren’t strangers to each other. Shortly after getting into the car, they became chummy.

Goway might have put on an arrogant front, but she actually didn’t give it much thought. Under Veronica’s fervent approach, her attitude quickly softened.

Veronica also gave everyone a brief overview of the situation.

“It’s not me who’s acting strange, but Stephen. He’s my half-brother from my father’s side. Our father often wasn’t home when we were little, so the two of us had the closest relationship.”

“Due to a lack of discipline, you could say he’s been spoiled, but aside from using money to mess around with girls, he hasn’t had any other vices.”

“Although the kid is somewhat haughty, he’s not bad by nature. Even when dealing with girls, he prefers to solve things with money and has never caused any other trouble.”

“But recently, something strange happened to him,”

Veronica sighed.

“He seems normal during the day, but as soon as the sun sets, he starts acting peculiar, always preferring to crouch in one place as if spying on something in the dark.”

“When midnight comes, he struggles desperately and lets out agonizing screams.”

Veronica’s face turned slightly grim, as if recalling certain images.

“I’ve never seen anyone emit such terrifying screams or make such horrifying expressions.”

“It’s as if his skin is being peeled off while he’s still alive!”

“Just listening to it feels extremely unsettling.”

“To prevent him from accidentally hurting himself, we’ve had to restrain him with ropes each time the sun goes down.”

“But the problem is, when he wakes up in the morning, he forgets everything that happened the night before. After a few days of this, his entire demeanor has changed drastically, and he’s even started lashing out at me with harsh words.”

“My father has called in many experts for consultations, but none of them have had a clue. At first, I thought he’d gotten hooked on some new drug, but then one night…”

“Stephen seemed to regain a moment of tranquility. Suddenly, he looked at me, his eyes filled with extreme panic.”

Veronica slowed down the car.

“What did he say, or do?” asked Roger.

“Save me, I don’t want to die.”

“I’m being consumed!”

Veronica took a deep breath, “His expression at that moment reminded me of myself when I was in the Misty World.”

“So, I figured this might be a Transcendent event, and that’s why I notified you.”

“Don’t worry, Veronica, now that we are here, the situation is sure to be resolved perfectly,” Henrik interjected.

Veronica nodded, “I’ll take you to my father’s house first. To prevent Stephen from escaping during the day, my father has specifically hired bodyguards from the Eisenberg Security Center to monitor him around the clock.”

The drive was silent. Sitting in the car and watching the flowing traffic and crowds, Roger could clearly navigate through this city. Yet, a sense of estrangement lingered in his heart.

Compared to in Baytown, he could distinctly feel the distance between himself and the real world.

Veronica’s father’s mansion was built on the suburbs of Mist City, atop a scenic hill. The team hadn’t even approached the villa when they could already see the besuited, sunglass-wearing security staff patrolling from a distance.

A lot of unheard-of and unseen modern electronic equipment.

After passing through three checkpoints, the car finally entered the estate. But upon disembarking, the group did not meet the estate’s owner, Jofu.

Without saying much, Veronica directly led everyone to a room within the estate.

However, upon opening the door, the room was empty.

Just as Ronica was beginning to feel puzzled, a portly, balding middle-aged man accompanied by an old woman approached.

“Father, where is Stephen?”

“Oh…”

The middle-aged man scanned the group, “Mrs. Forbes said he needed some relief, and then I let him go out.”
