Demon Hunter and His Cabin
Chapter 446 - Chapter 446 Chapter 446 Contact

Chapter 446: Chapter 446: Contact Chapter 446: Chapter 446: Contact The situation had progressed to this point but was far from over.

To avoid future investigations implicating him, Roger thought it essential to fabricate an alibi for himself.

He took out the only remaining drops of the Spring of Emerald and drank two, then entered the valley and began to frantically absorb the vitality of the surrounding plants.

His injuries healed at an incredibly fast rate.

Once he had mostly recovered, at least enough that it wasn’t outwardly apparent, Roger returned to the Hunter’s Cabin.

He removed everything from his person that might raise suspicions, placed it all into the Storage Box, and after a careful check to ensure there were no significant issues, he shouldered the Sword of the Sun and left, pushing the door open.

Not much time had passed, and the sun was still high when Roger leisurely went to the garage to get his car, then drove to the Dublin residence.

Upon Roger’s arrival, the Gareth brothers were quite surprised, and whether it was an illusion or not, Roger always felt that Gareth’s glances at him flickered with evasion.

After a moment of thought, he understood the reason.

It turned out this fellow thought he had been in closed-door training for a while and was afraid of being asked for Transcendent Materials again.

“Is there something you need?”

Gareth maintained his distance from Roger and asked tentatively.

“I’m one of the heads of Eld, it should be quite normal for me to be here.”

“Oh…”

Despite his hesitation, Gareth still nodded after hearing Roger’s words.

“Actually, there is something I came here for…”

After some thought, Roger decided he shouldn’t appear too abrupt and began to speak.

“Go ahead.”

Gareth immediately became alert.

Just as I thought…

“It’s about that task I asked you to handle last time.”

“The female sorceress.”

Roger gave Gareth an ambiguous glance.

“You mean Margaret’s female disciple?”

Roger nodded.

Now that his relationship with Amanda was somewhat public, for convenience’s sake…

Cough, convenience for what?

To prepare for any potential surprises that might come, both the Sorcerer’s Assembly and the Nature Association had sent many people to the Knights’ residence.

Roger intended to use this opportunity to bring Amanda closer to him, so he had asked Gareth to facilitate this.

“That issue…”

Gareth frowned, “I’m negotiating on your behalf, but I heard that Margaret intends to send her female disciple to other parts of Europe.”

“Do I need to step in personally?”

“No, no need,” Gareth quickly shook his head.

“Alright then.”

Roger feigned a casual stroll around the residence for a while, even declining several invitations from enthusiastic ladies.

From a distance, he saw Tristan busying himself with something, seemingly hesitant to speak upon seeing Roger.

For some reason, Roger felt that Tristan had undergone some peculiar changes, but at that moment, he was not in the mood to pay attention to other matters.

Feeling it was about time, he said farewell to Gareth and returned to the manor.

Now, all he needed was to wait patiently; given the importance of the recent events, a second Round Table meeting might be convened soon by Green!

……

Beneath Baron Iron Tower, in the Cursed Land.

Lancelot had used every means at his disposal, sparing no expense to gradually reduce the quarantine zone, yet in the end, he had to face a stark reality.

The murderer who killed two Heritage Knights, the so-called big fish they planned to capture, had escaped from here by unknown methods.

The operation was a complete failure.

Due to damage transfer, Gerant had suffered severe injury, but his life was not in immediate danger for the time being.

Escorting his three injured companions, he left the Cursed Land and immediately relayed the news back to Mist City.

Two hours later, the figure of Lancelot appeared in the manor of Green.

“Percival and Kay are dead?”

“Lanmaroc and Bos are severely injured?”

“Gerant has also lost his fighting ability?”

Green’s lips tightened, and his calm face was like a volcano about to erupt, suppressing the last of his fury.

“I hope the next thing you’re going to tell me is good news,” Green said in a deep voice.

“Gawain… has betrayed us!”

“He has broken away from the control of the Knights.”

As these words were spoken, Green’s complexion truly changed, and Lancelot then recounted to Green what had happened to Gawain.

Green let out a cold laugh.

“Lancelot, don’t try to portray yourself as an innocent victim,” Green seemed to see right through Lancelot’s motives.

But then he shook his head.

“None of that matters anymore.”

“We must find that guy. How does the person who provided you with the information call himself?”

“Mist.”

Lancelot answered.

“Can we still find that informant?”

Lancelot shook his head.

“He might already be dead.”

Green stood up.

“Let’s go. Take me to the scene to have a look.”

He stood by the window, looking back, Green could not even recall how many years it had been since he had left Mist City.

After Green arrived at the area where the battle had taken place, it wasn’t long before the space vibrated, and a stout woman appeared not far away.

“Tamara, why are you here?”

Green frowned, the appearance of the leader of the Nature Association here seemed to carry an air of curiosity about the commotion.

“I heard that Dark Energy was gathering here.”

Not long ago, she had explored the area where Roger and others had found the Headless Knight tearing open a portal and had discovered places where battles had taken place.

At that time, there were faint traces of Dark Energy remaining on site.

Tamara inspected the surroundings, her eyebrows tightly furrowed.

Although there were slight differences, the fact was that the energy present here was identical to the Dark Energy that had appeared in the Eld Forest.

Green had also noticed this issue.

“I’ve said it before, the death of Yebeni has nothing to do with the Round Table Knights.”

The Tree of Life, representing Yebeni, had already withered and died completely several days ago.

“It’s an unknown Dark Creature, only it’s unclear whether it has any connection with the Queen of the Night.”

Tamara seemed to not have heard Green’s words, still searching carefully. As she discovered the similarities, more questions surfaced on her face.

“How is this possible?”

“The black gemstone in Yebeni’s chest had clearly shattered; could this really just be a coincidence?”

“Could Yebeni’s death truly have nothing to do with the Round Table Knights?”

Tamara came quickly and left just as quickly, not even bother to say goodbye before rushing away.

After inspecting all the combat zones and returning to the real world, a contemplative Green suddenly looked up.

He just remembered that the last time Gareth reported on a mission, he had mentioned that Bedivere had cut off one of the arms of the Headless Knight Rams and taken his sword.

However, according to Gareth, shortly after taking the weapon, Bedivere found that the weapon had turned into black smoke and disappeared.

He keenly felt that there was something abnormal.

The Dark Energy at both locations was very similar.

“Could it be…?”

“Gaharad, notify Bedivere to come to Mist City to see me!”
