I Became a Demon Hunter in the Game - Chapter 85

Sarah’s face turned red as if it’s about to explode. She knows that she’s been asking for undeserving favors, but it wasn’t a nobleman’s way to say those words out loud in her face.  

 

Ed’s straightforward words made her bewildered. Guardian Knight Pan stood up from behind her, hardening his impression.  

 

“Look at this,” said Ed, turning his gaze to him.  

 

“Sit down while speaking.”

 

He knew that the guy wanted to help the woman he was in love with, but Ed was in a bad mood right now.  

 

Pan’s eyes met Ed’s eye, and his body stiffened for a moment. It was instinctive. He instinctively felt that crossing the line could kill him.  

 

Ed said looking at Sarah, as Pan sat down again.  

 

“Younger sister from the noble family knows better than anyone else how things are going on right now. If you’re aware, you know that you shouldn’t put more pressure on the denomination here, right?” 

 

Seeing Sarah say nothing and blush even more as Ed was speaking.

 

“If you are a faithful servant of Astron….” 

 

At Ed’s words, Malcolm and Alon, who were sitting next to each other, both nodded their heads.  

 

Sarah was also keen. 

 

Aron seems to be in an important position here. So she tried to get her out of trouble by asking him to do it, but Ed suddenly intervened and made her speechless.  

 

And now the atmosphere is that even the Paladines agree with Ed’s words. If she says anything wrong here, then things will be worse than they are now.  It would have been better to sneak out secretly.

 

Then Ed said with a smile.  

 

“The demons will be out at night. So rest here so that you don’t die at the hands of the demons after leaving the party.” 

 

To Ed’s words, Sarah did not dare to answer.  

 

Even if he were to put such a scare, it would be safer to get out of here at any cost than going back to her family.  

 

When she returns to the family, she will return to the lord of Korunga, and Pan, the guardian knight who caused this situation, dies. It just has to be avoided.  

 

“Okay.”

 

Edgar looked back at the people who watched Sarah retreating with Pan.  Paladins and battle monks.  

 

If they are capable, there is no need to use his own hands for any monster.  Still, just in case, he thought he’d have to stay up all night.  

 

Pan, who was sitting next to Sarah watching her bed, turned his head to the hand that grabbed his hand.  

 

Sarah was lying down and holding his hand.  

 

“Pan. When the night gets dark, you have to get out.”

 

“It’s a big sin. Why don’t you go back to Prince Melt?”  

 

“If I go back to my family, you die.”

 

” I know. “

 

“How are you telling me to live without you?”

 

Pan sighed as Sarah looked up at him. Closing his eyes tight, he knew he couldn’t refuse her.

 

“Close your eyes. I’ll wake you up when the time is right.”

 

“I only have time tonight.”

 

“I know.”

 

At Pan’s words, Sarah fell asleep while holding his hand.  

 

As the escape from Korunga was intense, she was so tired that she quickly fell asleep.  

 

Pan looked at her face like that and let out a sigh of relief. Since he knew that his wish was to respect and love her more than his own life. He did not want to show himself dying in front of her. He had to survive, not because of his own life, but because his death would hurt her heart.  

 

Pan watched the paladines as they fell asleep. However, only Ed was awake to check his equipment. So he thought he’d just wait for him to fall asleep.

 

But even after a long time passed, he didn’t sleep. 

 

Where the hell did the arrow come from! He took out a whetstone and sharpened the blade of the arrow.  

 

Pan, who looked at him, took out his weapon and looked. When he saw that the blade had teeth, he took out a whetstone from his bosom and sharpened the blade. 

 

Pan, who was quietly sharpening the blade, saw Ed suddenly get up.  And without hesitation, Ed fired his arrow into the darkness.  

 

Pan was wondering what he was doing, but he heard a scream in the dark. Starting with that scream, something came from all directions.  

 

Pan was blown away by the commotion.  And Pan, who raised his body, saw a monster running towards him.  

 

Reflexively, he lifted his sword and smashed the sword the moment he caught the sharp teeth of the rushing monster.

 

The monster that rushed in was surprised. 

 

The monster with the head of a hyena cut his sword away with its amazing jaw force.  

 

When Pan was startled, an arrow flew over his shoulder and hit the monster’s head. The monster’s eyes flipped over and fell to the floor. When he turned his head, the arrows from behind were sucked into the darkness, and he heard the death of the monster.  

 

It was so fast that he couldn’t even see the arrow properly. 

 

After a few arrows, the presence of a monster was no longer felt. Seeing that, the Paladines and the party had also completely woken up.

 

Ed said calmly.  

 

“I’ll bring back some arrows in a moment.”  

 

“Are all demons dead?”  

 

“Yes. So now you can rest in peace.”

 

Are there people who can fall asleep just because they grow up being attacked by monsters? 

 

Seeing that the Paladine and the party had all woken up, Pan knew that it was impossible to get out of there today. Ed passed him like that and muttered as he pulled out the arrow stuck in the head of the monster.  

 

“It’s a sweet thing that demons are swarming at night.” 

 

When Pan turned his head, Sarah’s face, who had woken up from the commotion, turned pale. Pan went to sit next to her and said,

 

“Since there are so many monsters, it seems unreasonable to go out of here tonight.”

 

Sarah sighed while holding Pan’s hand at those words. 

 

Sarah looked back at Pan while looking at the walls of Meltsi. Seeing the two exchanged glances, Ed slowly shook his head.

 

“The two of them from yesterday, were they trying to run away?”

 

“Yes”

 

“There are so many monsters, so it would be unreasonable to go out.”

 

“I had summoned Jerry at night, rats can hear night-talk!” 

 

Ed rubbed his hair.  

 

“What?”  

 

“The reason why the demons gathered.”  

 

“Teach me how to do it.” said Ed, resting his chin on Diego’s head.  

 

“It was because I was thinking of them. If they run away, you were going to put an arrow in their leg.”

 

Ed said so, but would he have put an arrow in their leg if they had actually run away? He doesn’t know.  

 

Sarah and the soldiers put a call inside, and a group of horses ran out. Seeing that their atmosphere was horrid, it must have been that they had sent someone from Korunga.  

 

It’s something that can be called a shame. They must have decided to inform Prince Melt instead of shivering.  

 

Indeed, the middle-aged man at the forefront of them caught sight of whether Sarah and Pan were dismounted from their horses.  

 

Pan bent on one knee, and Sarah stepped out in front of him. 

 

Prince Melt looked at her and his eyebrows trembled.  

 

“Sarah, what the hell have you been doing?”

 

Sarah read the end of a young life in the eyes of Prince Melt who was riding on a horse. Knowing that those eyes were on Pan, Sarah spread her arms out to block the front of Pan.  

 

“I’m sorry, but I couldn’t be with the Lord of Korunga without love.”  

 

“How can a nobleman love Taryeong? A nobleman has something to protect!”  

 

“Pan! What did I do when I entrusted the guardian knight to protect my daughter!” 

 

Prince Melt got off his horse. He drew his sword and approached in stride. Seeing that, Sarah spread her arms and blocked the front. 

 

“No!”  

 

“Get out of the way! The knight does not keep his responsibilities and crosses the line! How can I keep my head up if I don’t punish the knight!” 

 

Sarah tried to see if somehow there was any gap. The funniest thing in the world is to watch the fight, so Ed was looking forward to it after a long time, but suddenly he heard a voice next to him.  

 

“Please stop.”

 

Ed turned around and saw Aron rushing forward. 

 

Before everyone’s attention could be shifted, Ed hurriedly jumped off the horse and hit Aron in the back of the neck. Aron fainted while he was about to say something, and Ed, who went behind him, supported him as he fell. 

 

He spoke calmly when people’s eyes were focused.  

 

“Do what you were doing. We only have business to do at the temple.” 

 

Melt’s eyebrows twitched. He probably wanted to release his anger elsewhere, but as the Paladines Malcolm and Alon followed behind Ed, he could not release his anger.

 

He couldn’t ignore it either, so he asked after retreating his sword.  

 

“Why did the Paladines of Astron come to the Melt City for?” 

 

Malcolm answered.  

 

“I’m here because of the church’s business, so you don’t have to worry about it. You just do what you were doing,” 

 

Then Prince Melt said as he stared at Sarah and Pan.  

 

“What are you doing? Put Pan in a ceremonial prison, and detain Sarah in a room.”

 

Ed looked at the back of the head of Aron, the culprit of all that. Seeing that the back of his neck got all swelled up, he felt a little bit guilty. But he did the right thing.  

 

What if Malcolm and Alon, the paladines who were escorting him, had nothing to say?  

 

Then came the noise of horseshoes from behind. He glanced back and saw a familiar face. It was a knight named Bronn.  

 

Considering the distance from here to the city of Korun, it is unlikely that he would have gone there and returned.  Perhaps he was on his way from Korun as well. So they met in the middle.

 

They came to the front of the Melt group and started talking, and the wind of dust they had created swept through the crowd. And the stopped horses turned left and right, and a man stepped forward.  A man who is fat enough to talk.  His face also had a seriously ugly chubby snorting nose.  

 

Looking at him, Ed could see why Sarah ran away without spending a night.

 

“Prince Melt, I have come to retrieve the bride,” the man whose face was blushing exclaimed.

 

Prince Melt sighed. He would have said something if he had done everything he wanted to do and met them, but meeting the people of the Korun family here was a problem.

 

“Sarah, I’ll send you back to Korun, so you can go back and wait.” 

 

Froll, the little lord of Korun, snorted and pulled out the sword on his back. And he said, pointing to the group.  

 

“Okay. But as for the knight, I will have to split his head with my own hands so that my mind will be relieved. Give me that child.”  

 

No matter how much of a nobleman you are, you can’t be bothered to hear such a word from someone who has become your son-in-law.

 

“I’ll play everything according to the family rules, so stop backing away.”  

 

“Ha! If it had been properly done, would the guardian knight covet the one served? So I’ll take care of it.” 

 

A red light flashed from deep in the excited Froll’s eyes. 

 

Prince Melt’s eyebrows trembled as he watched Froll threatening to drive the horse forward. He was annoyed with his daughter’s work, but what is he saying now?  

 

“How dare you!” 

 

Prince Melt pointed his finger and was about to say a word, but an arrow shot out towards Froll’s forehead. He wondered if he had misunderstood. But Froll slipped back and fell from his horse.

 

Seeing this, Prince Melt looked down in surprise. 

 

Then a familiar voice came from behind.  

 

“Ttt. Why is the piglet with the devil?” 

 

Duke Melt looked back and saw a bow in Ed’s hand, who was riding with the priest.
