Volume 1 The Curtain of the Night Chapter 1 Clara's Night

Neutral Kingdom of Norris, Clara City.

In the middle of the night, the stars are sparse, the pale moon hangs in the sky, emitting a faint glow, and the stars and the night are woven into a curtain of dark night, silently shrouding the world below, even Clara, who has the name of the city of light, is slightly dim at this moment.

Clara is one of the important cities of Norris's permanent neutral country, close to the coastal area of the Atlantic continent, with a developed economy, and it is still lit up even at night, so it is called the city of light, the city of light.

In Clara City, at the end of 7th Art Street in Baker City, a dozen old houses sit, and there is a small grove next to the house, and the surrounding is quiet, only the sound of the breeze blowing.

And in one of these houses, Xia Zuowei closed his eyes, looked at a blank ceiling, and recalled the experience of the past few days.

Xia Zuo's full name is "Xia Zuo Hoggen", Xia Zuo was originally a wanderer who was taken in by the old hunter and lived in a mountain range far away from the city, but recently the old hunter suddenly and mysteriously left, out of curiosity about the outside world, and for the sake of livelihood, Xia Zuo left the mountain range where he was located and came to the city mentioned by the old hunter in his letter: "Clara".

"If you want to get out and see, go to Clara, for you, Clara is probably the best place for you to get a normal life. ”

The old hunter said in his letter.

"Uncle Hunter said so, but why is Clara more suitable? Xia Zuo thought.

Today is the seventh night of Xia Zuo's arrival in the city, Xia Zuo rented a house on the first night according to the old hunter's teachings, but in terms of work, Xia Zuo searched for six days in a row without any progress.

Luckily for Xia Zuo, everything in the city seemed so new, and Xia Zuo's attention was often attracted to other things, so there was nothing uncomfortable.

Xia Zuo was thinking about it when suddenly there was a bang next to him, as if a heavy object had hit the ground.

Xia Zuo stood up, turned his head to look, and found that it was his roommate, and the "Andrew Smith" in the bunk under the bed fell to the ground again, and on the ground, Andrew rubbed his head and looked uncomfortable.

Andrew is a man of about twenty-two years old, with a more mature appearance, much older than the 18-year-old Xia Zuo, Andrew has a lazy personality, likes good wine and beautiful women, according to himself, he is also a person who came to Clara from other places to seek work, but much earlier than Xia Zuo, as for how early, he did not say directly.

Although Andrew does seem to have arrived earlier than Chazzo, it is worth mentioning that this goods have been in place for so long and have not yet found a job.

At this time when Andrew had not yet found a job, Andrew met Xia Zuo by chance, and due to the economic situation, Andrew chose to share a house with Xia Zuo.

In addition, according to his own introduction, he used to be a decent nobleman, but for various reasons, he fell to this place.

Of course, Xia Zuo didn't believe in this introduction.

"Well, I had a good dream, and I woke up. Andrew scratched his head and said with a look of regret.

"It's a dream that always wakes up, but sooner or later, you still have to pay attention to reality. Xia Zuo couldn't help but sneer, remembering what Uncle Hunter had said, so he learned and used it now.

Xia Zuo got out of bed, smiled and stretched out his right hand to Andrew, Andrew held Xia Zuo's hand, unceremoniously pulled hard, and stood up, at this time, outside the window next to Andrew, suddenly something seemed to move.

"Hey, there seems to be something outside the window?" Xia Zuo was stunned for a moment, opened the window, and looked outside, only to see a strange black crow perched on a tree near the window, which was the movement caused by this crow just now.

This crow is very strange, the pure black feathers seem to seep out a faint glow, the eyes are sharp, as if it has human wisdom, this crow glanced at Xia Zuo, then withdrew its gaze, and was quiet again, as if it was monitoring the surroundings.

"It's a strange crow, it feels like it's possessed. Xia Zuo couldn't help complaining.

"What crows? Why didn't I see them?" Andrew also glanced out the window, and then his hand shook imperceptibly, and there were only trees outside the window, and there were no strange crows in sight.

"Haha Xia Zuo, I think you've been hallucinating because you've been under a lot of pressure to find a job lately, right?" Andrew put one hand in his pocket, turned around, and patted Xia Zuo's shoulder with the other hand, looking amused.

"It's okay, there's no need to be in such a hurry, don't you see that I haven't found a job yet? ”

"It's right there! The crow was so obvious in the tree closest to the window. Xia Zuo pulled Andrew with his backhand in disbelief and pointed to the crow that was still motionless in the tree.

"Not really. Andrew still didn't seem to see it, said.

"It seems that Xia Zuo, it may be better for you to go to the doctor, but don't worry, it's not a big problem, I'll accompany you tomorrow, it's okay, it's normal for me to take care of your little brother, don't thank me." Andrew patted Shazo and yawned.

"Let's go to bed and rest. Andrew glanced out the window and said.

Xia Zuo couldn't help but rub his eyes, opened the window, and looked out the window again, the crow was still silently lingering on the tree.

Xia Zuo was about to explain again, when suddenly, a black shadow burst in through the open window!

"Thief?!" Xia Zuo and Andrew suddenly became energetic, they couldn't be taken advantage of by thieves, they were all poor like this, how could they withstand the toss of thieves?

However, unlike what the two imagined, although this so-called "thief" resembled a human and had a dark complexion, he had fangs, blood-red eyes revealing the eyes of a beast, and two sharp claws emitting a terrifying cold light.

There are traces of blood on the body of this "thief", and the scars are shocking, it is obvious that this "thief" has just been injured, but this still cannot hide the inhuman horror of this "thief".

What kind of monster is this?!

Xia Zuo and Andrew suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

The monster with claws screamed and pounced on Xia Zuo, who relied on the reaction speed he had trained in hunting before, pushed Andrew away from him, and then quickly raised his arms to defend.

"Boom!" Natsuzo snorted, and was immediately knocked into the corner of the room by the monster, slammed into the wall, and then slipped off the wall and fell to the ground.

"Ahem...... Andrew, you run away......" Xia Zuo coughed several times in a row, and seemed to have suffered a lot of damage.

Seeing this, the monster let out a strange cry that seemed to be proud, and slowly approached Xia Zuo, as if it had taken Xia Zuo as a prey at his fingertips.

"Xia Zuo!" Andrew quickly reacted, and when he saw the monster slowly approaching Xia Zuo, he couldn't help but hurriedly pick up a chair in the room and slam it at the monster!

The monster ignored Andrew and approached Nazzo without raising his head, allowing the chair to smash into it.

A strange situation occurred, and the chair actually went directly through the monster's body, and it didn't do anything to the monster.

"Damn!what's going on?!"

Andrew, who didn't believe in evil, picked up another chair and threw it at the monster, but it still didn't affect the monster even a bit.

This monster is like a ghost and ghost, and it can have an impact on reality, but ordinary people can't even touch it.

Outside the window, just as Xia Zuo and Andrew confronted the monster.

The strange crow, which had been on the tree for a long time, glanced at the monster in the room, its sharp eyes lit up slightly, and it chirped, and then transformed into a pure black feather, and the wind blew lightly and sprinkled it on the ground.

Distance.

On a deserted street corner, a dark-haired man in a black trench coat with a calm temperament and the strange crow on his shoulder stood there.

The black-haired, brown-eyed man's eyes suddenly lit up slightly, oozing a faint light.

"Found ......"

"The closest to Fred...... It's up to Fred. ”

Out of nowhere, the man took out a small notebook, then held a black quill pen and wrote a few words on it.

"Seven Art Street. ”

These words faded after the notes were written, and finally disappeared.

"There's another tooth and blood ghost...... Oh, I found it. ”

The man in black turned around, then disappeared in place.
