Chapter 16: The Whetstone
The witcher who stopped Ye Qi in front of him was called Tad, a demon hunter who had been in the industry for three years. Its strength is above average in Tallinn, but it is extremely arrogant and ruthless, and there have even been cases of other witchers dying in order to devour other people's prey.
And after these incidents, Tad was still able to live comfortably, naturally relying on him. Behind Tad is a powerful force that ordinary witchers need to look up toβthe Deco family.
A Tad is nothing, but the Deco family behind him has to make the demon hunters who want to take action to get rid of this cancer think about the consequences of the attack.
After all, it depends on the owner to beat the dog!
The Deco family, a family of witchers active in the Autumn Forest District. It is rumored that the entire Deco family has three legendary holy weapons, which are extremely powerful. For an ordinary witcher like rootless duckweed, it is an unshakable behemoth.
"Yellow-skinned boy, where did you pick up these bat wings?" Tad, who stopped Ye Qi, asked in a disrespectful manner, "Hurry up, where did you get this pair of batwings?" Why do I look at these batwings, so like the ones I hunted down the last time I stole them? Say! Did you steal these batwings from me last time? β
As soon as Tad came up, he turned black and white and forced Ye Qi to ask, if he was a more timid person, he was stared at and asked by the fierce and vicious Tad, maybe he was so frightened that he couldn't even speak. But Ye Qi is not a timid person, his eyes narrowed slightly and looked at the "whetstone" that jumped out in front of him - his figure is tall and strong, but his face is like a horse face, and his eyes are the size of mung beans, plus his nose and pockmarked face, so that Ye Qi doesn't want to take a second look after seeing it. However, Ye Qi still endured the discomfort in his heart and asked.
"You are?"
"Lao Tzu is Tade!"
Because Ye Qi always went to Daddy's Bar in the middle of the night before, he was not very familiar with the witchers in Tallinn, and most of them only heard of his name. It's like Tad in front of you. And after hearing that the person in front of him was the infamous Tade, Ye Qi couldn't help but pout secretly: "The bat wing you hunted with great difficulty last time?" What a long face! β
Not only Ye Qi secretly pouted, but the witchers present were almost all despising Tad's shamelessness - if a vampire with a knighthood could be killed by a scumbag of your strength, then wouldn't we all be high-level witchers!
"Tad, go back! Don't play your tricks in front of Lao Tzu! Lao Tzu is old, but his eyes are not dazzling! The profiteer standing behind the counter yelled as a plastic ashtray slammed into it.
Don't look at the profiteer Old Ward and Ye Qi usually ridicule and sarcasm each other, but that is all good-natured. And don't forget that the two still have the same relationship as John - one is an old friend, the other is an apprentice. Therefore, after the profiteers saw that Tad was about to embezzle the batwing that Ye Qi had hunted, of course they would not stand idly by.
"Smack!"
The plastic ashtray slammed into Tad's head before he could react, shattering him instantly. It can be seen how much power the traitor has. The witchers present were all people with some eyesight, and they could all think that if this ashtray was not plastic but tempered glass, Tad would probably have gone to God with a burst of brains at this moment.
"Old Ward! Don't think I don't know about your relationship with this kid! He's John's apprentice, right? Hmph, of course your relationship with John is going to cover him up! But justice is in the hearts of the people, and if you don't handle this matter properly, I will definitely appeal to the Witcher Headquarters! β
Tad, who had been beaten by the profiteer, had a flickering look in his eyes for a moment. Obviously, he was also a little scrupled about profiteers, but after thinking about how much benefit the pair of batwings in front of him would bring him, Tad didn't care so much - with the connections of the Decor family, if Tad had the title of high-level witcher, then the chances of getting the holy weapon at the five-year headquarters gathering were definitely much better than the others.
After a slight hesitation, Tad once again brazenly shouted a word of justice and persecution of profiteers on the grounds of appealing to the Witcher's headquarters.
"Hey, Appeals Headquarters?"
The profiteer's eyes, which were originally as small as slits, were almost gone, but the flickering cold light in his eyes made all the witchers in the bar feel a chill on their backs, as if they were being stared at by a peerless beast. And Tad was even more cold sweat on his forehead, his thighs trembled, if he hadn't reached out to help the bar, I'm afraid he would have fallen to his knees at this time.
"What are you going to do? I'm a member of the Deco family......" Tade yelled inwardly, but the profiteer sneered and was about to walk out of the bar, at this moment Ye Qi, who had been standing next to him, suddenly spoke: "Old profiteer, this is a matter between me and him......"
Ye Qi's sudden interjection immediately attracted the attention of the demon hunters who were ready to watch the excitement, and at this time they seemed to remember that the rookie next to him was the real party. Immediately, the eyes of the surrounding demon hunters looking at Ye Qi became diverse, some surprised, some disdainful, but the most were banter.
For the demon hunters who wander on the edge of life every day, fearing that the world will not be chaotic, they will only applaud desperately in the face of the current situation, and will definitely not stop or do peace. If it weren't even for the fact that the identities of two of them were a little special, the surrounding demon hunters would have already contributed to the involvement at this time.
And Ye Qi, who was standing there, could still know what the demon hunters around the road were like even if he didn't look closely. Because if it was normal and it didn't matter to him, he would show the same expression when he encountered this kind of thing. But this time, not to mention that it was up to him, he had to stand up for the sake of demonstrating the apostle's "power" and thus obtaining the title of apostle and a series of privileges.
Although he was surprised by the momentum of the profiteer's sudden outburst, the witcher, who knew what his purpose was this time, still stood up at the moment before the profiteer made a move. Looking at Tade, who had escaped from the momentum of the profiteer, as if he had been fished out of a lake, and his whole body was soaked in sweat, the witcher said lightly: "Let's each have our own words, let's fight for life and death!" Those who win get bat wings, and those who lose die! β
Life and death, another manifestation of the supremacy of strength under the hypocritical system - when an incident occurs, both sides insist on their own words and cannot refute each other, they use their respective strength to solve it. Winning naturally becomes the right side, even if he is wrong, as for losing?
Dead people no longer argue about right and wrong!
