Chapter 1: Lucie
The continent of Ejn is dotted with numerous archipelagos, the largest of which is Devil's Island, a 35,000-kilometre coastline due south of the corpses of unknown creatures that has been around for an unknown number of years, devouring nearby islands. Looking down from the sky, it looks like a sea python entrenched in the ocean of Sophie, which is larger than the territory of many land countries.
In addition to its size, it is also known for the danger of the island. It is said that due to the influence of countless corpses under the island, the creatures on the island have mutated, and bats that were originally the size of palms can grow up to one meter. In addition to mutated creatures, there are also countless rare beasts and monsters scattered on the island. However, danger often comes with benefits - after thousands of years of abnormal evolution, the ecological environment of the island has undergone earth-shaking changes, countless rare treasures are scattered on it, and picking up a plant root at random may be a rare medicinal material that is rare in the outside world.
Originally, this island belonged to the Kajin Empire on the Ezhen continent, but 50 years ago, due to the value of the island, V5, an organization composed of the five strongest countries in the world, split Devil's Island through a series of means and turned it into a "three-no zone" that does not belong to any country. As long as you are confident in your strength, you can climb this island and explore it, and since then this island has attracted the attention of countless adventurers, including professional hunters who have obtained a hunter's license.

Lucy was hidden in a cluster of giant leaves, the wide leaves that were about the height of an adult and completely obscured his body, leaving no gaps. Since his eyes could not see the outside scene, he could only judge the tracks of his prey by sound.
Time flies, it has been 10 years since he came to this world, and after reading the memories of the unlucky guy he crossed over, a 5-year-old child, Lucy can only roughly understand some information, such as this world does not have the names of countries that were familiar in his previous life, and the country he is in is called "Lobi Empire", which is an imperialist country with a strict class. Lucy is also fortunate to live in this kind of country because he also has a vested interest - although he has never seen his parents since he was a child, judging by the size of his estate and the variety of servants in the castle, he should be the aristocratic class of this country, living a good life and not worrying about livelihood.
And when he slowly adjusted to the change of his identity, one day the old butler came to him with a burly and tall man, saying that this man was his uncle and his only relative now, Lucy was stunned.
The man may not be very good at shushing the cold and asking for this kind of thing, he first stretched out his hand to look very formal, and then he was afraid that he would scare the child in front of him, so he immediately retracted it, and at the same time tried to squeeze out a somewhat penetrating smile: "Little Lucy, I'm your uncle." ”
And Lucy looked up at the strange smiling face painted with all kinds of colored materials, and he was a little unsure of what kind of attitude he should face this person. I didn't read any pictures of this "uncle" from the memory of the original owner of the body, but the original owner of the body was 5 years old when his soul passed through, and he couldn't expect such a young child to remember anything.
The thought in his mind was only a moment's work, on the surface, Lucy just opened his mouth and looked at this person a little stunned, at this time, the old butler came forward to resolve the slightly embarrassing atmosphere: "Lord Potterbai, the little master is seeing you for the first time, maybe a little scared, please follow me to the room to explain this matter slowly." ”
Then, with the help of the old butler, Potter White made five-year-old Lucy understand his intentions, and at the same time let him know about his parents.
It turns out that Lucy's parents are both nobles of the Lobi Empire and professional hunters with good strength. Despite their esteemed status in the Lobi Empire, the two still have a thirst for adventure in their bones. After giving birth to the original owner of this body five years ago, they left the Lobi Empire and headed towards the continent of Elubian, where there are more unexplored areas. Lucy was raised by the old housekeeper and wet nurse, and the first two years were fine, and the parents would occasionally come home to visit him, but he never saw his parents again three years ago. At this moment, I knew from Potter's mouth that my cheap parents seemed to have been planted in a trap of an ancient ruin a year ago.
As the eldest brother of Lucy's mother, Potter White rushed to the ruins after learning about this, but he could only bring back the bodies of the two. This time he came to the manor to take Lucy to him, after all, once his sister died, Lucy was also his only relative.
After Potter White proposed his intentions, the old butler objected, and he had been taking care of Lucy for the past five years, and they had feelings for each other. From his heart, he hopes that Lucy will stay in the manor, and having himself will always allow Lucy to spend his life safely. And if he followed Potter White, under the influence of this professional hunter, Lucy might follow the path of his parents, which the old butler did not want to see.
But as a well-known three-star hunter in the Hunters' Association, even the king of Lobi must seriously consider what he said, and if he forcibly wants to take Lucy away, no one can stop him.
In the end, the two wisely did not quarrel over this matter, but gave the choice to Lucy.
Hunter? Relic?
What they didn't know was that at this time, Lucy had already set off waves in his heart.
It turns out that this is the world of full-time hunters!
When this realization is obtained, many lines that do not correspond are pieced together one by one. According to Potter Bai's appearance and the few words he said, Lucy who had been chasing hunters for more than ten years before instantly judged:
This uncle of his is the [Chenlong] who is the closest to the president of the twelve branches of the Hunters Association, Potter White Kigant!
The world of full-time hunters is not a peaceful and stable world, whether it is the assassination of the family and the beating of the enemy, the A-class criminal phantom brigade, or the chimeric ants in the back, or even the dark continent, all reveal the dark and cruel side of this world. If you don't know, forget it, Lucy, who now knows where the world is, will no longer tolerate his messy messing around and waiting to die.
In this world, if you want to have freedom from others, you must first have strong force.
And what thicker golden thighs than this "uncle"? As soon as he thought of those magical telepathic abilities, Lucy was eager to immediately follow Potter White to practice.
But before that, think of a suitable reason, a reason that can make a five-year-old child give up the privileged life of the nobility and "suffer" in order to become stronger.
Lucy took the old butler's hand and said very slowly but firmly:
"Grandpa Rice, I want to be a hunter, I want to know what is the charm of a hunter that can make them abandon me or even lose their lives."
"I'll be back when I find the answer, I promise."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The airship slowly rose into the air, and looking out of the window, the figure of the old butler's farewell gradually disappeared. Lucy showed a smile, from today onwards, he will usher in a different life.
Potter White sighed secretly, he saw a lot in Lucy's eyes, as a three-star terrorist hunter, he was almost at the top of the professional hunter. Lucy thought he was hiding it well, but he didn't hide it in his eyes. He could clearly feel that his nephew had no feelings for the people in the manor, whether it was reluctance to make a decision or tears when parting, it was a disguise. From beginning to end, the nephew's purpose was to follow him and gain strength.
However...... After all, it's my sister's child, so if he wants it, give it to him. That's the only thing Potter White can do.
He took a glass of red wine and drank it down, and at the same time took a glass of juice and handed it to Lucy: "You say, you want to be a hunter?" ”
Lucy took the cup and nodded, "So I can find what my parents care about!" ”
Potter Bai didn't expose it, but said lightly: "Hunters are not so easy to be, if you follow me to cultivate, you will suffer a lot." ”
Lucy took a sip of the juice and didn't swallow it, feeling the sweetness and sourness on the tip of his tongue.
Judging from Potter White's attitude, it seems that he is not for such a funny reason...... However, as long as this blood relationship is still there, it will not be affected.
The young man grinned slowly, if he could gain strength just by enduring hardship, it would really be ......
"I can't ask for it!"
