Chapter 6: Isli
"This is the new Great Sword here?"
"No, it doesn't look very young or strong. ”
"I'm afraid I'm going to get a new big sword soon......
"Don't say it, our lives depend on her......"
"Although there doesn't seem to be a case of demons eating people recently, I can't say that demons will suddenly appear one day......
“..................”
Isu was a little surprised that the humans here didn't seem to be as scared or disgusted with warriors as they were in the previous areas, and although the people didn't even glance at them with their eyes on them, they didn't immediately want to hide in their homes with the doors and windows closed.
There was even a man who looked quite old but had a majestic face and walked towards Izu.
This was Ysu's first reaction. But after confirming that the other party did not have a little demonic energy, she had no intention of making a move, not to mention that she also believed in her adaptability, even if the other party was really a demon, she could react at the first time.
"Honorable Demon Hunter, please go this way. I have already arranged your residence. The man bowed and made a "please go this way" gesture, and another stout man took Ysso's horse by the hand, and another man presented a white leather cloak, which I couldn't tell what kind of animal fur it was, but it looked very warm.
"Down there is the mayor of this town, Uto. Thank you so much for coming here to keep us safe. The man led the way as he introduced himself to Izu.
Izuy nodded gracefully and wrapped her cloak around her. Follow the mayor and the stout man through the streets to a pine forest, which is also an area on the outskirts of the town. There are a few wooden houses in the pine forest, although not very luxurious, but large enough for a single family. The stout man tied his horse to the stake in front of the hut and was very familiar with the road. Obviously, the previous warriors who ruled the Seven Districts should have been treated with such courtesy. Perhaps this is a tradition in this town, and the first dozens of warriors were treated like this.
"There haven't been any demons making trouble here or around lately, so please stay here for the time being. Just give a command of everything you need. The mayor bowed slightly, and returned the way he came, with the stout man.
"If something happens, I'll send someone to inform you and hopefully you'll be there as soon as possible. ”
This town is quite interesting, and according to what the mayor just said, it seems that his mission is conveyed by him rather than his agent, Lu Lu, and it is no wonder that Lu Lu will tell me about it when he will see him alive next time. Izuku thought as she pushed open the wooden door. The house is quite well equipped, and there is firewood burning in the fireplace, which dispels a lot of cold. It's basically a three-bedroom layout, but Isu doesn't really need such a large space. All she needed was a seat where she could sit.
Izuy sat on a wooden chair near the fireplace, grabbed an apple from a coffee table and nibbled on it. As a half-human, half-demon warrior, he didn't need to eat frequently, and about a week's worth of eating a meal for an ordinary human was enough. However, Izu's habit of eating seems to have been infected by Helen.
Although there are no tasks for the time being, it is important to be familiar with the environment around you. After eating the apple, Isu untied his horse and prepared to go further north of the town to survey the environment, that is, to familiarize himself with the layout of the town in the seven districts under his jurisdiction, so as to facilitate future missions.
As soon as he thought of it, Isu skillfully mounted his horse and headed north along the shallow snow pine forest.
I'm a dividing line maniac***********************
"Do you feel anything? A woman-looking man with silver hair in a shawl leaned against the trunk of a cedar tree, a playful smile on his face.
"There is nothing out of the ordinary. The man, known as Rigarut, leaned against the other side of the tree trunk, with neck-length black hair and trimmed bangs in front of his forehead, slightly longer than his eyes.
"Yes. The silver-haired man chuckled, "Then you stay here and look after Priscia, and I'll go out." ”
"What is it that requires you to go personally? Rigarut was taken aback, "Wouldn't it be better to send the Legion of the North? ”
"Nope. I need to confirm it myself. The silver-haired man took a small step forward, and the snow that fell to the ground disappeared in an instant.
"I felt the breath of that little girl in the very faint West. ”
"You mean Liv Road in the Abyss of the West?" Rigarut walked out as well, "So that boy from Duff is here too?"
"There's no Duff's breath. But in addition to this, there was another fainter strange demonic aura that stacked with Liv's demonic aura. ”
"Please let me go with you. My king, it is too risky for you to go alone. Rigarut pleaded from one knee on one knee.
"No need. You're here to stay. If it's a situation I can't handle, you might as well bring Priscia to save me. As soon as he finished speaking, the silver-haired man was nowhere to be found, as if he had never been here, only Rigarut, who was still kneeling on one knee in the snow, and a place where there was no snow for some reason.
They're not*********************
Isu had already ridden out of the pine forest, and beyond the pine forest was a snowfield with a thick layer of snow as far as the eye could see, and it seemed that the next town was a thousand kilometers away, and it would be very troublesome to rush there without riding. As far as she knew, there were 11 towns in the Seven Districts, the most famous of which was Pietta, the birthplace of Alphonse. It happens to be located in the heart of the 7th arrondissement. That is, the first town to reach after this snowy field will be Pieta.
Pieta named "Mercy".
Izuku didn't ride fast, after all, he didn't have a mission, just familiarized himself with a few nearby towns and the location of each town, and by the way, sensed whether there were any demons in the town.
Although the snowfield looked very large, Isu could faintly see a tall black tower not far away after riding for about an hour, which was very conspicuous. It is the emblematic building of Pieta.
The silhouette of a man in the flying snow raised by the horse's hooves gradually revealed, and he had been too far away to notice a person here. This man, with silver hair and a silver fur shawl, has a slender figure, and the fabric on his body looks very luxurious. What's even more strange is that there is not the slightest trace of snow within a radius of one meter around him.
Isu's heart was pounding, and the not very strong man in front of him gave him a strong sense of threat, and even the horses under him did not dare to move forward.
Obviously, the man was still a hundred meters ahead one second, but the next second he was already sitting on the back of Isu's horse.
"Are you a warrior in the new territory?" the man's voice was very feminine, which was quite nice.
"I am the one who rules this region. ”
Isu has been guessing the identity of this man since she saw him, and this sense of oppression is not at all compared to when she met Livlu, which means that the possibility of this man being him is very high.
"Isli, the King of Silver......" Isu forced himself to speak calmly. Just arrived in this area and encountered the North Abyss, which is very bad!
