Chapter 298: Chapter 291: This Child Actually Has the Bearing of a Father

"Mr. Liu Zheng, don’t scare my dad~"

Flora ran over, hugging Liu Zheng’s leg and acting coquettishly.

"I’m not scaring him."

He grumbled, but said no more.

"They say you cured my Beastification Disease?"

Father John watched the amicable and affectionate scene, his eye twitching.

"Not cured, just temporarily relieved. If you continue to undergo ’Blood Healing’ and hunting Beasts, you’ll become a Beast again sooner or later."

Liu Zheng shook his head.

Andrina furrowed her brow, about to say something, but Xia Kai behind her held her back.

"Sister, let’s not court death, eh?"

Xia Kai whispered.

Andrina nodded, then shook off his hand.

"If you really can do it, how did you do it?"

Father John asked in astonishment.

He had recognized the emblem on Andrina’s clothes; a person accompanied by a "Holy Blood" Hunter needed not lie to him.

"Trade secret. Now, Lao Deng, you barely made it out alive, so spend more time with your wife and child and stop prying into all these matters."

Liu Zheng said dismissively.

"By the way, dad, where’s mom?"

Flora asked immediately.

"Your mother..."

Father John paused, then, holding his head, started to remember.

"Seems like your grandfather took her away."

He said hesitantly after a moment.

Flora’s grandfather was named Henkel, also a Hunter.

"Then let’s call grandpa and mom here, it’s much safer here than outside."

Flora suggested.

"Can we, Mr. Liu Zheng?"

She looked at Liu Zheng with a pitiful expression.

"I don’t have any objections."

He looked at the old woman.

"My thoughts align with the adult’s."

The old woman quickly said.

"Alright, then after I’ve recovered my strength, I’ll go find them."

Seeing this, Father John also spoke up.

It was naturally safer to stay inside the Church than at home, and besides, he would have the company of acquainted Anke and his family.

That young man, who seemed important, also appeared to be quite fond of Flora.

Wait, this kid doesn’t have any weird ideas, does he?

He looked at Liu Zheng with a touch of wariness in his eyes.

The latter felt Father John’s gaze but didn’t take it to heart.

There were too many who misunderstood him; one more didn’t matter.

"Alright, hurry up and get me something to eat; I’m starved. No potatoes."

Liu Zheng said to Anke.

"Sure thing, what would you like to eat?"

Anke finally found the opportunity to join the conversation, and said cheerfully.

"Bring more meat, that smoked meat you make is pretty good. And some vegetables too. No potatoes."

He glanced at the pile of potatoes on the ground and emphasized again.

He had also had his fill of the impoverished sisters’ potato meals.

"No problem, I’ll make a meat stew pot and a vegetable soup then. Sister Phyllis, may I borrow your kitchen?"

"Sure, I’ll show you the way."

The old woman took Anke and his family to the kitchen and soon came back.

"Sir, after you’ve enjoyed dinner, where do you plan to go?"

She asked respectfully.

"How long to Carcarens Academy?"

Liu Zheng looked at Andrina.

"It will take about three hours."

Andrina said.

"That long? Then let’s go to Old Yate first, then the Taboo Forest, and finally to Carcarens Academy."

He considered and then spoke.

Tommer Ruins, a place that clearly looks like the final stage, is definitely something to save for last.

As for Dravania, it would depend on whether that remnant race knows how to behave.

"Huh?"

The old woman’s tone sounded slightly disappointed.

"What do you mean ’huh’? It’s good enough that I agreed to help you out, I have to finish my own stuff first, don’t I?"

Liu Zheng rolled his eyes and said.

"Clang, clang!"

The helmet man knocked on his head forcefully.

"My Lord, he says he’s willing to be your assistant,"

the old woman translated.

"You? Are you up for it?"

Liu Zheng looked at the helmet man.

Even though his gut told him this guy should not be weak, they’d never actually come to blows.

"My Lord, you shouldn’t underestimate him. In fact, he has also received a minor miracle, his strength isn’t much less than that of the Chief Hunter of the Blood Healing Church,"

the old woman quickly said.

In fact, if it weren’t for the fact that the helmet man had received a minor miracle and committed the great sin of masturbating towards the Twisted Saint, the Church of Suffering would never have given him a chance at redemption.

Either the Church would execute the helmet man or the helmet man would wipe out the Church, there was no possibility of compromise.

"That powerful?"

Liu Zheng looked at him with interest.

The helmet man raised his head and thumped his chest a few times with a "bang, bang," driving the long nails deeper into his flesh.

"Heh."

Andrina scoffed with disdain, just about to suggest a challenge with the helmet man, when she was held back by Xia Kai.

"Sister, good relations bring wealth, good relations bring wealth,"

he muttered.

"Hmph."

Andrina shook off Xia Kai’s hand with force, causing him to grimace in pain.

"Man, this old lady sure has a strong grip,"

Xia Kai said speechlessly.

Of course, the reason he discouraged Andrina twice wasn’t because he coveted her beauty.

Although she indeed fit his aesthetic, as a player who had already cleared the instance once, he naturally wouldn’t stoop to being a sycophant again.

Xia Kai discouraged Andrina partly to show his attitude to Liu Zheng and partly to build a good relationship with Andrina.

While Liu Zheng might be a golden thigh to lean on, he would leave Yate after the mission was completed.

And although Beethoven had promised to help train him, how earnest he would be was unknown.

It was beneficial and harmless to get on good terms with the Church’s high-level personnel.

Liu Zheng did not notice Xia Kai’s little maneuvers; if he had known what Xia Kai was thinking, he probably would have sighed and said that the lad had indeed the makings of a father figure.

"If he goes with me, what about the church’s security?"

he asked.

"My Lord need not worry, the Church of Suffering has survived until now, naturally it has some methods,"

the old woman said confidently.

"Then it’s decided. You should have a way to communicate with the Church, right?"

Liu Zheng looked at Andrina.

"Yes."

"Then notify Lao Bei to send some people over here to patrol,"

he said.

The old woman was a bit displeased, but she didn’t dare to refuse.

"This... yes."

Andrina signaled the helmet man to open the gate for her, and then she left the Church to send the message.

"A big shot is a big shot,"

Xia Kai said enviously.

Having the big boss of the instance send people to work for him was something he didn’t even dare to dream of.

This wasn’t about surviving in Hell; this was clearly about starting an enterprise in Hell.

After arranging the matters, Liu Zheng started waiting for his meal.

Fortunately, the cooking method was simple, and Anke soon brought up the stewed meat hodgepodge and the vegetable soup.

Knowing Liu Zheng’s appetite, he made the portions very large and served them directly in buckets, which looked a bit like swill.

Besides potatoes, he had also thrown in other ingredients that wouldn’t affect the taste, making it look even more like swill.

Liu Zheng didn’t mind at all, alternating between bites of hodgepodge and sips of vegetable soup, eating merrily.

After eating, he rinsed his mouth with half a bucket of beer.

"Let’s go, set off for Old Yate,"

he said spiritedly, full from food and drink.

"Please wait a moment,"

Father John stopped Liu Zheng.

"If you are headed to Old Yate, I have some information that might be useful to you."
