Demon Hunter and His Cabin
Chapter 723 - Chapter 723 Chapter 594 Development_2

Chapter 723: Chapter 594 Development_2 Chapter 723: Chapter 594 Development_2 There were just a few more bloodstains than on the envelope before.

Everything returned to normal, but the figure of Higurashi Gushan suddenly appeared. He took down the floating envelope, pocketed it, and without turning his head said,

“The person has already left. What are you doing here?”

A crack appeared in the sky, and the sound of rushing water filled the air as the black-clad Kurokawa emerged mid-air.

“How interesting, a heartless man is actually full of heart. You seem as hard as iron, indifferent to everything in the world, but emotionally, you are the most fragile.”

“Gushan, oh Gushan, I’ve discovered your weakness.”

“That girl, the girl who shares the same bloodline as you.”

A smile crept onto Kurokawa’s face.

“You won’t be able to find her,” Higurashi Gushan said, his facial expression unchanging.

“Yes, I can’t leave this place, but that doesn’t mean others can’t, such as the people from Tengu Shrine…”

“They are quite willing to help me find her. After all, the mere possibility of manipulating an Asura is enough to tempt one.”

“You’re courting death; no one can control me, including myself.”

“I know, of course I know, but even if it’s not successful, witnessing the fall of an Asura is still an exciting thing!”

Higurashi Gushan lowered his head, and his hands were already gripping the hilts of his blades. His eyes flickered with a vicious intent as he struggled to suppress the mad impulse within him.

To remove the power of Asura from Higurashi Chika’s body, Higurashi Gushan had frequently used his own power and absorbed a great deal of killing intent.

Most of it came from Roger, and those chaotic and mad elements strengthened Higurashi Gushan while making him even more uncontrollable.

To maintain his sanity, he had to transfer these things elsewhere.

Gripping the hilts, red lightning flickered over his body, infusing the Twin Blades with formidable power, but Higurashi Gushan also had to make sacrifices.

Because these things would compress his memories and numb his emotions.

He had to choose from his already scant memories, retaining only those of utmost importance, the rest had to be discarded.

Gradually, he would forget every person in his memory until, in the end, he lost himself completely, heading towards destruction.

In the end, the Nekomata’s Spirit Eater would consume the Cultivator as well.

“You bastard?!”

Kurokawa’s expression changed, sensing that the man before him had grown stronger since their last encounter. At that moment, Higurashi Gushan exhaled.

He looked up, a trace of bewilderment in his eyes.

“Seems like I’ve forgotten something again…”

“You know, Kurokawa, at times like this I especially crave blood and battle!”

Bright bloodstains appeared on Higurashi Gushan’s cheeks, his Twin Blades were drawn, and an evil smirk formed at the corner of his mouth.

“You’ve come just in time!”

The next second, Higurashi Gushan’s figure vanished.

Kurokawa felt a chill over his entire body, and with a shriek, he turned and fled.

As a Superior Leader-level strongman, he did not fear battle, even if he was at a disadvantage, but that didn’t mean he wanted to confront Higurashi Gushan.

Because strongmen also don’t like dealing with madmen.

Meanwhile, Roger felt as though the three of them had passed through a slippery channel. Although there were no stains of blood on their bodies, the air around them was still discomforting.

Once everything returned to normal, Roger found that the three of them were in a desolate mountain, with the bright moon hanging overhead and silence all around.

Higurashi Chika remained unchanged, but having left the Land of Eternal Darkness, Yuan Guanghai showed great abnormalities.

Black smoke spread across his body’s surface, enveloping him in a black halo; even standing there expressionless was enough to conjure thoughts of something sinister.

This was not within Yuan Guanghai’s control — originally dead, his soul had completely changed its nature upon arriving in the Land of Eternal Darkness.

While regaining his memories, he had also absorbed the powers of the Land of Eternal Darkness, deepening his transformation process.

The changes might not be apparent here, but if he were to appear in the real world, Yuan Guanghai’s current abilities would be sufficient to cause ordinary people with evil thoughts to undergo mutations.

Roger was, of course, aware of this issue, but he already had a plan in mind.

He planned to take the Spirit Skill back to Hankawa, but before that, he needed to send Senka and the others to a safe place.

Kaer Morhen.

In the early morning, the sun lazily crested the horizon, casting the first ray of light onto the castle at the summit of Kaer Morhen.

That was the highest point on the entire mountain, from where one could overlook the entire area.

As the sun continued to rise, its rays spilled down, gradually spreading across the staggered architecture, stone steles, and statues, over the stone bridges of the gorges, until finally, they were blocked by the mist enveloping the castle’s periphery.

“Such scenery never gets old.”

Roger stood by the window, watching everything in front of him, a sense of serenity rising within.

Though he had been in this world for over a year now, made many close friends, and experienced numerous things, all these still couldn’t completely integrate him into it.

His soul, his memories, would often drift back to everything he had experienced in another world during many nights.

A sense of alienation.

Just like the initial rejection he felt from this world, he didn’t quite accept it either.

Not until recently, when Kaer Morhen rose from the ground, merging past memories with the wondrous present.

Only then did he truly ascertain that he was Roger, a Demon Hunter.

A languid voice came from behind, and Roger turned to see Amanda’s smooth back and the red hair scattered upon it.

“Female sorceresses need sleep; beauty is our most potent weapon.”

Amanda murmured softly.

“It’s still early, we can sleep a bit more.” Amanda said somewhat discontentedly.

Roger leaned closer to Amanda’s ear.

“Are you sure it’s just sleep?”

“What else?” Amanda suddenly opened her eyes, not a hint of sleepiness in her beautiful eyes.

That moment, Roger regretted profoundly.

Damn it, why did I use my vigor recovery ability on Amanda.

A female sorceress with endless energy… well, this is never going to end.

Not long before, Roger first brought Higurashi Chika and Yuan Guanghai into the manuscript, and then activated his Penetration ability to appear in Kaer Morhen.

After more than three months of construction, Kaer Morhen was no longer as vast as it used to be; come morning, Roger could see bustling figures moving about, everything bursting with life.

In one corner of the Training Ground, Ingmar was leading a group of Demon Hunter Apprentices, preparing for the Green Grass Trial, and honing their bodies.

Drinking Potions to unleash potential and using corresponding swordsmanship to enhance physical fitness, even from a distance, Roger felt he could sense the passion emanating from Ingmar.

Of course, she mostly expressed her passion with her feet.

After Roger left, Henrik had conducted the Green Grass Trial a couple of times, and while death was still unavoidable, the probability of it had been decreasing.

The new Demon Hunters joining had comparatively excellent physical qualities, almost reaching the critical point of the Transcendent Realm.

With systematic guidance for cultivation, they would soon be ready for the Green Grass Trial.

The new way of inheritance didn’t require a high aptitude for bloodlines but placed very high demands on insight, especially willpower.

Amanda mentioned that Henrik even turned away several individuals with remarkable bloodline talents and faced dissatisfaction and attacks from other Transcendent Forces because of it.

Overall, everything at Kaer Morhen was developing in an orderly fashion; the outside world’s understanding of this place was limited to Amanda and a few others who frequently appeared in public view.

Likewise, the Third Tier pinnacle Henrik earned many people’s favor; it was said that some, upon learning of Henrik’s particular tastes, had even dispatched beauties specifically for him.

Some Bloodline Hunter families sent young and beautiful members of their lineage.

Henrik, for one, never turned away such advances and even deliberately acted ambiguously.

He would feast at one house and then another.

After the meal, he would wipe his mouth, pat his backside, and leave.

It didn’t take long for the matter to come out, but no one could do much about it in the end.

After all, it was a case of mutual consent.

Henrik’s roguish nature persisted, and he even took the initiate several times, but as everyone became aware of his character, no one was eager to offer their daughters or sisters anymore.

He felt quite regretful for a while.

Life is all about movement, and as the sun climbed higher, Roger got dressed and stepped out of the castle.
