I Became a Demon Hunter in the Game - Chapter 90

Arin’s charisma was unparalleled as she spoke with a radiant brilliance. If only she had divine power, she would be comparable to a Master Paladine. 

 

She had been catching demons.  Now, she must have an outstanding divine power that is ranked among the three fingers even within the denomination.  

 

In front of her charisma like that, even a conscripted officer had no choice but to die. Even if they said they weren’t scared, there was nothing they could do. Arin was already letting the people there know that she was a paladine by her very existence.  

 

Arin turned her head to look at Ed. She had a cold expression on her face that the conscripts felt, but when she saw Ed and Diego, she smiled brightly.

 

That smile was reserved only for him. So, Ed looked at her and smiled.  

 

“I’m here.” 

 

At Ed’s calm words, Arin’s smile deepened.  

 

“I’ve settled down at the inn. Come with me.” 

 

She must have stayed at the inn, because she was thoughtful of Diego. The soldiers who followed Arin followed the conscripts and made their way to the left and right, but no one dared to block them.  

 

As they rode along the road, Diego couldn’t contain his curiosity and asked.

 

“Is this going to happen even before the territory?” 

 

“No. There’s a little bigger problem than that.”

 

“What’s the problem?”

 

Arin pondered the question for a moment, and then she answered.

 

“You’d better ask Thane than me. It’s hard to explain.”

 

Ed was also curious about it, but he agreed to obey her.

 

“Did you have to deal with it?”

 

“It wasn’t easy. It seems that he was born as an intermediate demon, but his level is almost closer to that of an advanced demon. The Blood Manastone wasn’t what it used to be either.”

 

“Blood Manastones aren’t what they used to be?”

 

“As if it were stronger, it was stronger and more powerful. This made it easier to pinpoint the location.”

 

“Even if it’s hard to catch, it’s easier to find the next target, right?”

 

“Yes.”

 

Ed savored those words. A mid-level demon that is close to a higher-level demon. How much experience did it give her? He also accumulated quite a bit of experience this time, but it was always a pity that he missed the opportunity to gain experience.

 

It was necessary to check how much experience the Ragrox gave by strengthening the Blood Manastone.  

 

“Is it all right Ed? I heard you dealt with Crossel’s finger and the apostle. How were they?”  

 

“It’s hard to die because I’ve been taking the Blood Manastone.”  

 

“So what did you do?”  

 

“I got it thanks to Aron.”  

 

It was Arin who asked to save her brother but did not think that he would be of any help. Ed said, pointing to his eyes.

 

“He could ‘see’.”  

 

“What?”  

 

“The location of the Blood Manastone, so it was easy to deal with.” 

 

“Did he have that kind of ability?” 

 

Ed nodded.

 

“Perhaps he had some realization. Aron is not what he used to be. It will be of great help on our journey.”

 

Arin seemed to have thought a lot about those words. She drove her horse, immersed in her thoughts, and stopped in front of a fairly large inn.

 

“Here it is.” 

 

As the cashier approached, Ed got off Dark with Diego, turned over the reins, took a coin from his pocket, and handed it to the cashier.

 

“We’ve been struggling for a few days, so please make it clean and give it good food.”  

 

“Oh, are you talking about this? I’ll take good care of it.” 

 

After hearing the clerk’s reply, Edgar was about to enter the inn, Arin followed and asked.  

 

“It looks very nice.”

 

“I got it as a gift.” 

 

She heard about dealing with the apostles and fingers of Crossel, but in that short time, he grabbed only one demon. So what did Ed do?  

 

Arin wanted to hear all the stories. Then Diego ran into the inn first.  

 

“Grandpa!” 

 

Diego was the first to find Thane and put him in his arms.  

 

“Ok. Be careful.”

 

Thane patted Diego on the back and said.  

 

“Thank you for taking care of him. Emma is resting on the second floor, so let’s go.”  

 

“Hey, I’ll come and say hi.” 

 

Ed sat down in front of Thane as Diego ran up to the second floor.  

 

Seeing Ed, the dusty man, Dex gave him a pin.  

 

“Wash up. Why are you in a hurry? You’re sitting there blowing dust?” 

 

Ed heard that, thinking it was the right thing to say, and got up from his seat.  Thane looked at Ed like that and said.

 

“They tell us to bring out new food and prepare drinks. There are a lot of stories I want to hear.”  

 

“I’ll wash up soon.”  

 

“Your room is set aside on the second floor. It’s at the end of the hallway, so you should go there.” 

 

Thane raised his hand and a female clerk approached. He handed her three of his coins and said,  

 

“Please send me some hot water at the end of the hallway.”  

 

“I’ll upload it soon.”  

 

“And bring me some new food and some drinks.”  

 

“Yes!”

 

After giving a lively reply, Ed looked up at the clerk who was walking away and pointed his finger upward as Arin came in and sat down.  

 

“I’ll wash up.”  

 

“I’ll be waiting for you, so let’s go.” 

 

Ed walked towards the second floor and looked back at Arin.  

 

“But how did you know I was here?”  

 

“I know because Thane taught me.” 

 

Ed looked at Thane, but he was waving his hands. Ed just nodded and went upstairs to the second floor. He still couldn’t figure out how he handled the information.  

 

As he was walking towards the end of the hallway, Brandt opened the door and came out.  

 

“Brother,” 

 

Brandt said, turning his head to look at Ed, then hurried over and hugged him tightly.  

 

Ed was afraid to avoid it, but he did not avoid it because he had read the truth in Brandt’s eyes. Brandt hugged Ed like that and patted him on the back.  

 

“It was hard.”

 

“No. Brother, I’ll wash up first.” 

 

Brandt smiled as he freed Ed.  

 

“So. I’ll be down.” 

 

Ed was released by Brandt and arrived at the end of the hallway. 

 

While he took off his cloak and hung it on the wall, a woman with a hot water bottle poured water into the bathtub. In the meantime, Ed dusted off his clothes first, thinking he’ll have to use it a few more times in the future.  

 

As he opened the window and looked at the dust, he could feel the atmosphere of the castle anew. The conscripts who had been enrolling had returned, but the soldiers were no longer circling.

 

The atmosphere was still heavy.  Looking at the buildings inside the tightly closed castle, Ed wondered what was going on.  

 

He handed the clerk two more coins as the hot water filled the tub. She left his room smiling broadly when he gave her a coin because she had been struggling to fetch her water by herself.  

 

After locking the door, Ed took off his clothes and went into the bathroom.  As he entered the warm water, it felt as if his fatigue had melted away. In fact, there was no physical fatigue thanks to the high stamina, but it felt like mental fatigue had melted away.  

 

“Ah, I want to go to a sauna.”

 

After washing in warm water after a long time, Ed came down feeling refreshed. He smiled faintly as he saw Diego chattering, sitting next to her Emma.  

 

Seeing their gaze on Ed made him feel like he was back in his family.  

 

Thane asked as Ed took a seat.  

 

“I heard from Diego that you killed Crossel’s finger and an apostle?” 

 

Ed took a piece of blood manastone from his chest and put it down.  

 

“These are the blood manastones they had. Having this, they didn’t even die until I took out the blood manastone. If it wasn’t for Aron, I couldn’t have done that.”

 

Even without Aron, they would have died in the end, but it was true that they were caught comfortably because Aron was there.  

 

Thane looked at the pieces of blood manastone and flashed one-eyed glasses.  

 

“I couldn’t research it because the blood manastone evaporates every time, but I think it can be researched. Arin. May I research this?”  

 

“Are you okay?” 

 

Thane smiled as Arin asked anxiously, knowing what a blood manastone was.  

 

“Don’t worry about this old man. There is no one better than me on the continent when it comes to research on demons.”

 

Thane turned to Ed and said.  

 

“If research is done properly, it probably won’t be difficult to determine the location of the Blood Manastone.”  

 

“Then I’ll ask.” 

 

Ed’s gaze turned to Thane.  

 

“Since Diego’s been talking about you guys, let me tell you what’s going on here,” said Thane, brushing his beard.  

 

“The Southern Prince Pelman has been crowned.”

 

“Does that mean that he called himself a king? The kingdom of Travia was strengthening its royal authority, and it is likely that Emilia will inherit her throne now. Does she say that she is crowned and established a kingdom?” 

 

“Yes, yes.”

 

“Isn’t it hard to look good?”

 

“Of course it is. Hearing the news of his crowning in the kingdom, it is said that they turned the blade of the army that was going to be sent to the kingdom of Dahlia straight to the south.”

 

At the same time, there was an army that was sent to conquer the kingdom of Dahlia. The place where the blade of the army will be directed is bound to be the southern part of the place rather than the kingdom of Dahlia. Being crowned is a bigger issue in itself.  

 

“That’s why they’re conscripting troops like this.”  

 

“Yes, yes. If we hadn’t carried the name of the Astron Church on our backs, it would have been difficult to see the good looks.” 

 

War! That’s an unimaginable amount of blood flowing. When he himself entered this body, he woke up in the middle of the battlefield and was amazed to see the countless corpses spread out there.

 

He also saw that so many corpses piled up and the blood they made became a river. To say that such a war will happen, he does not know how it will be related to their work.  

 

“But how are you going to build a kingdom with only southern nobles?” said Thane, moving the plate to the center of the table.  

 

“If this is the kingdom of Travia.” Thane placed the bottle on the other side.

 

“This is the kingdom of Magelta.” 

 

Finally, Thane looked at Ed as he took the glass and placed it between them.  

 

“And this is the first kingdom of the southern nobles to build.” 

 

Ed could guess the situation from those words.  

 

“Karen has joined hands with the Mazelta Kingdom, and it seems that all of their factions are trying to join the Mazelta Kingdom.” 

 

Thane replied with a nod of his head.

 

“They say that the troops are gathering even at the border of the Mazelta Kingdom. Perhaps this will become a great Legion.” 

 

Hearing that, Ed smirked.  

 

A small country sandwiched between great powers. Korea came to mind.  

 

“If the South is engulfed in war, there may be problems with the exorcism.” 

 

Ed’s gaze turned to Arin. She answered Ed’s gaze, nodding her head.  

 

“That’s right. And if there’s a war like this, the demons will fight.”

 

It has already been proven that the devil is more prevalent in the age of war.  

 

A demon will appear in the chaotic world and cause chaos. Hidden demons will crawl out. Soon, a world will come where you will roll around with experience points to your feet.  

 

Ed is not interested in war, but it’s a different story with demons.  

 

“So, did you find out where the blood manastone was pointing?” 

 

Arin shook her head.  

 

“I guess it’s difficult to get cooperation in the investigation because of this kind of atmosphere. So I was waiting for Diego to come back.”

 

Now Arin admitted it too. He knew that Diego was superior to himself in detecting the power of the devil.  

 

Diego, who had been telling a saga to his Emma, ​​opened his breasts wide as the gaze of her gathered on him and flaunted as he looked into Emma’s eyes.  

 

“Only trust me.”
