Chapter 30: The Black Lagoon
"......" Eno fell into deep thought.
Apparently coming up with an idea, Aprily waited quietly for her to think it through.
"Rest ......in peace," Ino was silent for a long time, and said these two words heavily.
"And not all of them have been put to death...... "April's heart began to grow heavy at Ino, "and there are slaves." ”
“...... Well. However, it is better to die in prison than to live long. Ino touched his collar, and although he didn't have any expression, he seemed to miss it: "Ino is like this...... The host was very loving...... It's not bad......"
Although Enoas was abused when her deranged master had a seizure, her masters of each generation loved her when they were mentally stable.
She lives as a doll to protect her mind and bring it with her body. Closely connected with the owner.
Inoas was a house slave.
Just like domestic servants, they don't seem to have heard much about the bad relationship between them and their masters who have served the family for generations.
It's just that the domestic servants don't want to do it, and they can leave at any time. (Unless the contract stipulates that you are not allowed to leave before the expiration date)
But the house slave could not leave, and like all slaves, freedom was locked like a collar around his neck.
It's just that under this premise, different feelings will sprout.
Inoas watched each generation of his masters grow up under the huge pressure of sealing the evil gods since he was a child, and he was affected by madness step by step from the normal three views of gentleness and reason, and from time to time when he was out of control, he began to vent all the desires that had accumulated negative emotions on Ino, ravaging him like a puppet.
Only Ino stayed by his master's side, from holding their childhood little hands to being held in his arms when he grew up, until his master's life force was exhausted and he died under a curse.
In the dark pool, the Agrath family will give birth to a new baby. This baby is the reincarnation of the deceased head of the house.
The water of the Black Pond is taken from the Black Lake, the root of the World Tree and the birthplace of life.
It was an ancient and secluded place, untouched.
That's the real end of the world.
"Let's go swim in the Black Lagoon!" of course, there are also people with big brains like Lucina, who will be very excited.
"Who's going to go. "It's not just April and Catherine (the only experienced demon hunter in the academy besides the Dean and April, a girl of mixed cat orcs and elves. Lucina often complained that she said that her breasts were so big that she wouldn't let you touch them, and it was reasonable) that several people were unwilling. Tina seems to be a little interested, but she can't help it because she wants to open a store.
"I'll go, I'll go!" Dean Geralton's eyes lit up, "Miss Lucina wears a swimsuit, doesn't she?"
"No! perverts are not allowed to come!" Lucina expressed dissatisfaction.
"This guy isn't any better than me, is he?" Geralton pointed at Mellon in annoyance: "You and these two people sleep in the next room and try it?
"W-n!" Tina blushed with shame.
"People are married, can they be the same as you?" Lucina argued, refusing to do so. At the same time, several of Cannet's apprentices in training were invited to go as well.
"None of them are going, so will you come with your sister?" she asked hopefully.
"Where are the little bunnies going!" Geralton yelled in annoyance, "Practice your sword well! If anyone goes out in the future and doesn't know how to play the sword, it's a shame for the demon hunter!"
At this time, Cannet, who was clumsily practicing with a wooden sword, didn't know how to feel if he knew that he would accept an apprentice named Bulso in the future and would never use a sword.
All in all, in the end, Lucina went to play in the Black Lagoon. April and Eno accompany her.
A year later, Lucina still wanted to go to the Black Lagoon.
So she came to the academy, and this time, she crouched directly in front of Cannet, looking very relieved.
There are two more children who change the MONOCULUS with Cannet.
The other two, who had no half-demon bloodline or resistance, died, leaving only Canette alone.
The magic eye is a thing that can only be changed when the body has grown to the level of about ten years old, and it has to give children time to think carefully and prepare for taking potions, so it is after a period of course training when it is accepted.
Because the mortality rate is too high, it is common to gather several children before the ritual is carried out. Otherwise, the children will die separately, and it will be too hard for people - both for April and the children.
"Are you going to play with your sister in the Black Lake?" said Lucina, looking down at Cannet.
That's right, Canette wasn't as good as Ayagao at the time.
Aya's height is generally only 1.4 meters.
"But I can't swim. Canette hesitated.
"Demon hunters can't swim. This was exactly what Lucina wanted, so she excitedly shouted, "Let's go, my sister will teach you to swim!"
So in this case, it ended up being a few people to play together.
Then Canette almost drowned.
"Why don't you take this kid with me?" Geralton yelled angrily, pointing at Cannet.
It's just impressive.
By then, April's hunger-blessed sleepiness had grown. At the same time, I feel that everything that needs to be said seems to have been said, and there is nothing important to talk about. So, she couldn't resist the sleepiness, pillowed on Eno's lap that had been set up in the shape of a knee pillow, and fell asleep in a daze.
fell asleep, and simply hugged Ino directly. And Inoas quietly caressed April, waiting for the shift time to come.
Ino's patience is terrifying.
It's as if I don't care about the passage of time.
This patience, combined with silence, and the ability to melt into the night......
It's enough to make her an excellent hunter.
In April's daze, she heard a bell ring.
Ino nudged her, motioning for her to come to her senses.
"It's a shift change. Eno picked up the sleeping April, stood up, and her expression became very serious: "Wait for me, be good." ”
It's easy to sneak in during shift changes, and for Ino, who can blend into the shadows, it's mainly aimed at opening the baffles in the tunnels and not being found in some corridors filled with lights.
These are things that cannot be easily passed by the darkness.
"Be careful. April rubbed her eyes and looked nervously at Eno who was gently lifting the baffle: "If there's anything wrong, come back quickly......"
"Hmm. Ino pauses slightly, looks down at April, then gives a serious look again, pushes the baffle open and disappears into the darkness.
Feeling that she could only wait, Aprile looked at the red ball of light beside her in a daze, and summoned her own ball, Lily.
Holding Lily, she couldn't help but worry about Ino: Nothing will happen, right?
