"Because I had already believed her words, I did not hesitate to shoot the arrow in my hand, which passed through the dark shadow and hit without question. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"I was stunned when the blood came out of the beast's body......"

"What kind of beast is this that kills, it looks so delicate and so ...... Chaste. Duke seemed to be considering the words to describe the beast, and from its description, the silence of the night seemed to gradually describe its temperament, but then Duke did not continue to talk about the beast. Instead, he began to talk about the beautiful woman.

"The arrow seemed serious to it, and it fell on the woman, and she motioned for me not to come, and then ...... The strange beast slowly died coldly in the woman's arms. ”

Although Duke Hunter paused and did not continue, it was clear that this was definitely not the end of the story.

Sure enough, after this, Duke continued: "The whole thing is not over, she said to me, 'Have mercy on me, I have no intention of this unicorn, my father needs it to escape the fate of being killed, I need its skin, if you help me, I will marry you in the future.'" Perhaps because of her promise and speculation about the identity of the woman, I believed her so easily at that time, like a young man carried away by love. ”

Unicorn...... Night Silence had already guessed about this, and after listening to Duke's entire story, Night Silence couldn't help but sigh: "After that, didn't she promise in advance?" ”

Duke Hunter's eyes seemed to have a fire burning, and his tone was even colder, so unusual that the silence of the night reminded him of the woman, who must have hurt him deeply.

"I used a knife to rip the skin of the unicorn off its body little by little, it was a perfect beast, the pure blood stained my whole hand with a layer of milky white, I gradually regretted it at the time, but watching the woman's eagerness and begging, I continued."

In fact, the silence of the night when he heard that the unicorn was dead was not in a good mood, and he was afraid that he happened to encounter a mission involving a mount, but the actual mission was far from getting a mount.

Thinking of this possibility, the mood of silence in the night is not so wonderful.

"When I cut off all the skin of the unicorn, I gave it to the woman, oh...... Later she told me that her name was Lena. ”

"That Lena promised me at that time that as soon as I rescued his father, I would return to White Sands and complete my marriage contract with me......"

"I waited for several years for this, and it was in the process that I began to inquire about her whereabouts, and at last I learned from a nearby town that she seemed to have become a viscountess by virtue of her precious furs......"

After all this time, he was still a little indignant.

"At that time, I still made this excuse for her, thinking that it might be that she was forced by the viscount because she was too beautiful, and she had no choice but to marry him."

"It took me a great deal to see Lena, and at first she spoke to me, but when I asked her if she would like to leave here with me, she immediately turned around and asked the guards to kick me out, on the grounds that I was disrespectful ......to her as a viscountess."

Duke Hunter snorted, the insult he had received at the time was still not forgotten even now.

"Then I began to realize that I was getting old unusually, as if I had been cursed by something." Duke still looked at his hands with palpitations, the power of the curse still hadn't dissipated from his body, and he became even more terrified.

"I sought out the priest of the Holy Temple, and he told me that he could not solve the matter, but he could help me delay the effects of the inexplicable curse, and then I found the Junior Bishop, and from his mouth, I learned that the curse on my body was something called the curse of the unicorn."

"All the people who kill the unicorn will fall into such a curse, at that time, I was even more angry and helpless when I was treated like this by Lena, and then I felt even more guilty about the unicorn, and I slowly grew old under the curse and had no shame to see those relatives in White Sands Town, my parents died very early, and it was their existence that allowed me to grow up to be a hunter in the future......"

The Duke Hunter's face easily made the silence of the night feel a sense of remorse between his eyebrows, and now the story was clearly nearing the end.

"Celestial, can you do me a favor?" is also a hunter, Duke's good impression of Silent Night, coupled with the temporary Friend of Freedom buff on Silent Night, made Duke immediately decide to hand over the task to him.

After taking on the mission called saving the unicorn, Duke apparently has to explain to Nightfall how he will complete the mission.

"Originally, this matter should have come to an end, I was just a first-order hunter, and I didn't have any ability to compete with her, but after staying in this place where I originally met her for a long time, I slowly found out that there is a unicorn cub here, it is slowly growing up, and now I have been feeling uneasy."

"Twenty years ago, she was able to use me to kill the unicorn, so if she found out about this lonely one, it would not end well...... Maybe she saw the cub twenty years ago, and although I have the curse of the unicorn on my back, I don't hate this creature, I hurt it......"

Duke's eyes then became firm, but the silence of the night knew the identity of the viscount in the Euljis Empire, and he would not think so blindly that he could fight the viscount, so he couldn't help but ask about the details of Lena: "Since you said that Lena has become a viscountess, then how can I protect that unicorn cub, if it is beyond my ability, I will definitely not be able to help you." ”

The silent words of the night clearly expressed the limitations of his own ability, but Duke shook his head: "The viscount is the viscount, she is her, she will never tell the viscount about this, I know very well, she is an extremely selfish person, she wishes that only she knows about this, what she is most likely to do must be to hire a person who is shallow and does not understand the meaning of a unicorn to do such a thing, the number of people will definitely not be very large, and it will not go beyond the scope of the first order." ”

"You must know that even if it is the Viscount, the second-order professional is not something she can invite casually, and she has the idea of wanting to monopolize it, so there is no need to worry." Duke said these words categorically, and the silence of the night gradually believed.

The level of the mission does not go beyond the scope of the silent endurance, but only the challenge level.

A challenging task that cannot be completed in the eyes of others is a slightly difficult task in his eyes, after all, it is not the first time he has done a challenge-level task.

Duke told him first about the area where the unicorn has been appearing, because the buff of Friends of Nature still has two days to go, so he secretly hopes that Lina, the person sent by the viscountess, will come soon, and then he can directly complete the task, maybe he can win the unicorn's favor and directly tame it into a war pet.

It's just that Duke can't say anything about the characteristics of unicorns, and he specially came to the scholar's house to look up some information about it, and after reading these research texts, he silently discovered one thing.

Although Duke's expression was not pretended, he still concealed a lot of things, and it can be seen from the words recorded in the books in the scholar's house that the unicorn is definitely not as fragile as Duke said, and it is too nonsense to be able to kill a unicorn with one arrow.

Unicorns are magical creatures, and although they are obviously vulnerable to physical attacks, a first-order archer can't kill them with an arrow, either because Duke doesn't say anything about it, or Duke still doesn't know much about Lena.

There is also the fact that the unicorn chased Lena in the first place, and there is an explanation for all this in the scholar's house, and the unicorn is very fond of young and beautiful women.

Another trick from start to finish is...... The Curse of the Unicorn does not exist and is not mentioned at all in the House of Scholars......

It is conceivable that although Duke told about Lena, it doesn't matter whether the truth is as he says, and that Lena is the culprit and the culprit who deceived him.

Maybe after that, what happens next dramatically may change.

Just when the night was silent and came to such a conclusion, ready to wait for the rabbit to figure out the unicorn's routine, Viscountess Lena rubbed the corners of her eyes and faced the somewhat proud woman in front of her.

The status of the viscountess seems to be a bit noble, but in fact, Lena knows that she actually has no rights, in the Eugilis Empire, there are few baroness, and when a woman does not have a title and only relies on her husband's title, her position is shaky.

This shaky fall was not only aimed at the knights or guards who had lost their allegiance to her, but also to her own viscount husband and not to herself, so she could not trust these people, and except for these seemingly loyal people around her, she could only use some adventurers or mercenaries for the money she had.

The adventurer is okay, those mercenaries are absolutely ruthless, and she doesn't want to face them at all.

So she met with such a celestial person in front of her. (To be continued.) )
