Demon Hunter and His Cabin
Chapter 766 - Chapter 766 Chapter 615 3610_2

Chapter 766: Chapter 615 3+6+10=?_2 Chapter 766: Chapter 615 3+6+10=?_2 Even though Roger now had control over her life and death, this woman was unlikely to serve Roger wholeheartedly.

Indeed, there were rules that could bind her.

But every rule has its loopholes, and given enough time and opportunities, even a slight misguidance could result in Roger paying a heavy price.

Therefore, she must be destroyed.

Without any intention of mercy, Roger’s loosely clenched fist gradually tightened, and the cage wrapping around the Mountain Woman began to constrict inward.

The Mountain Woman seemed to realize something, as she shouted loudly, “You’ve won, you are already the ultimate victor.”

“Give me a chance, I am willing to sign a contract with you like Uma did.”

Roger could understand the Mountain Woman’s former pride; after all, the original Mountain Woman had completely overpowered a Roger who had not reached the Third Tier, at least psychologically.

Although her former strength was gone, she would never submit to Roger, but now, faced with true extinction, the Mountain Woman finally realized.

Being alive was the most important thing!

The cage tightened, and the Mountain Woman vanished completely. At the same time, the surrounding environment underwent earth-shattering changes.

Having fused with two Shadow Fragments, Roger was now in the garden in front of the Shadow Cottage.

The soil in the garden stirred, and the Elder of Shadows’ body reappeared, with the wound in his chest rapidly healing.

Moreover, as the Hunter’s Cabin grew stronger, some changes also occurred in the Elder of Shadows’ body, his muscles becoming fuller and more robust.

In fact, if the Mountain Woman hadn’t used a special method to invade other Shadow Fragments, even with the Hunter’s Cabin, Roger would have no way to assimilate the fragment in which she resided.

Without the proper method.

That was the most crucial point.

Only by finding the entrance, the weakness in the Mountain Woman, could the power of the Shadow Cottage enter boldly.

At the same time, she used her remaining strength to assimilate another Shadow Fragment, giving Roger the chance he needed.

However, it was a pity that even after assimilating two Shadow Fragments, the level of the Shadow Cottage did not rise further.

Just as Roger thought that the Shadow Cottage might have reached its level cap, the notice board gave him a prompt that made his heart skip a beat.

“Young Demon Hunter, the Shadow Cottage has expanded in area. Please continue to work hard and elevate the Shadow Cottage to level eleven at your earliest convenience.”

“Upon doing so, the combined level of the three Hunters’ Cabins will reach twenty, and a new transformation will unlock.”

“Please strive to enhance the strength of ordinary Demon Hunters and continue to upgrade the level of the Demon Hunter’s training base!”

“There’s such a hidden change?!”

Roger recalled that the Graveyard Cabin had reached its limit after upgrading to level three, and the Mist Hut was at level six.

The Shadow Cottage had been upgraded the most, now being at level ten.

A quick calculation.

Hmm… nineteen.

Although this condition seems simple, it’s actually quite difficult; according to the Mountain Woman, each Shadow Fragment corresponds to a Transcendent who has been devoured.

There are many risks and uncertainties within this.

The Elder of Shadows had been severely wounded in battle and, upon returning to his own little world, soon died.

After his death, his body underwent changes, and part of his small world evolved under the influence of external rules into the world where Lilith resided.

Ultimately, the remaining Shadow Fragments were minimal, and it wasn’t until the Elder of Shadows, the master of the Shadow Fragments, had completely died that Roger easily assimilated him.

As for the Mountain Woman, she had lived for who knows how many years, and Roger wasn’t even sure if she was from the world he resided in now.

This woman, who didn’t seem to have much combat ability, was not so easy to assimilate while in her sober state and in her Shadow Fragment.

Regarding the place beneath Maple Forest.

Roger quickly thought of the Flower of Eternal Darkness and that strange creature.

Now it seemed that the strange creature must have also used a method similar to the Mountain Woman’s, in a vain attempt to break free from its constraints and be reborn.

He had even taken the precaution to transfer part of his power and then channel it into the Flower of Eternal Darkness, causing a common plant to undergo drastic changes.

This must have been the key to his resurgence.

Unfortunately for him, Roger and Kensumi dashed all hopes for that being.

Thus, the Shadow Fragment hidden beneath Maple Forest became unclaimed territory.

This was also why the Mountain Woman had Uma lure Roger here.

Unfortunately for her, within the area covered by the Shadow Cottage, Uma was not affected at all and still informed Roger of everything.

It was then that all the subsequent planning unfolded.

The Mountain Woman wasn’t very detailed in her explanation, and much of the information was quite general, some of which Roger couldn’t even discern as true or false.

Not fully reliable, yet not to be completely disbelieved, he could only slowly analyze the situation in combination with his own experiences.

At this time, Roger also noticed the changes happening to Uma.

Having been completely decomposed by Roger, the consciousness of the Mountain Woman was no more, but not all of her power had vanished.

Tiny specks of light, like fine sand, fluttered about, then enveloped Uma, evenly blanketing her entire body, their faint glow flickering in and out of Uma’s skin.

Snap!

A crisp sound.

Roger helplessly curled his lips.

Why does evolution always call for clothes to burst?

Uma’s figure and appearance both underwent subtle changes, with a part of the Mountain Woman merging with her, which led Roger to more speculations about Uma’s origins.

It wasn’t long before Uma, who was floating mid-air, opened her eyes; noticing Roger’s gaze, she twisted her body and charged towards him.

“Stop!”

Roger had to curb Uma’s impulsion.

“How do you feel?”

Uma’s expression wilted, “I have learned so much, discovered my origins…”

She sighed deeply, “I think, what I need now is a warm embrace and strong arms to lean on, to share my past…”

Roger’s eye twitched, the familiar Uma was back.

“I didn’t ask you that.”

He said with a look of headache.

“Which then?”

Uma pushed her chest forward.

“Which? Which one are you asking about?”

Roger almost wanted to give up on the idea of having a normal conversation with her.

But Uma decided to cut her losses.

A flash of light, and she was suddenly dressed.

“I will need some time to absorb and digest all of her.”

“But not everything, just a part of her power and memories.”

“I never anticipated that I was once a piece of flesh on her back, and now she has permanently become a part of me.”

“My master, find me a body that I can control.”

“My power has greatly increased.”

A cunning glint shone in Uma’s eyes as she glanced at Roger, her face full of innuendo.

“I know you’re quite interested in that Amanda and Goway; I can help, guarantee they’ll be willing, and after the fact, they won’t have a single doubt.”

Uma goaded Roger.

“Get lost!”

Roger naturally refused without hesitation, and before he could do anything, Uma had already disappeared from the spot.

Her voice came from not far away.

“Whatever you need, I’m at your beck and call…”

Roger shook his head, ignoring the woman’s nonsense. He didn’t need to leap into the air; in his consciousness, the area encompassed by the Shadow Cottage was as close as the palm of his hand.

The surrounding area continued to expand, seeming somewhat empty, with enough space to place a dozen or so houses, forming a miniature village.

“If this continues…”

Thinking back to what the Mountain Woman had once said, Roger became increasingly convinced of the Hunter’s Cabin’s wonder, an entity that seemed not to be a product of this world’s rules, yet unoppressed by any such regulations.

It was as if the Hunter’s Cabin was an entity far beyond the rules of this world.

His body vanished, and Roger appeared in the Land of Eternal Darkness, not sensing the presence of Higurashi Gushan, who likely still stood upon the mountaintop.

To increase the likelihood of Higurashi Gushan coming home more often, Roger felt it necessary to make some improvements to the Hunter’s Cabin before him.

Of course, the stimulation for Higurashi Gushan couldn’t be too strong, to avoid the chance of him going berserk at any moment.

Removing the hood from his head, Roger walked into the distance to test whether the strength he felt after the Hunter’s Cabin had assimilated the Shadow Fragments was an illusion or not.
