Chapter 23: Come, Laugh

“……”

Lindsey was thinking seriously about a question.

If it were an ordinary 13-year-old boy with good talent, after hearing the temptation of the huntress just now, would he just give in and plunge into the arms of this profession?

If you think about it, what Dan said to him was not a lie.

According to Lindsay's understanding of the Awakened, if he really chose the path of a hunter, there would be absolutely no problem with what the other party said before.

"Boy, why don't you speak?"

At this time, Dan, who had been listing the benefits of being a hunter, also felt that Lindsay's silence was a little problematic.

Thinking that the boy in front of him could kill an ice badger alone.

Dan immediately changed his words:

"You think what you just said was a lie?"

"I promise you, you can do more than you can imagine when you become a hunter, as long as you ......"

For the first time, Lindsay took the initiative to interrupt Dan's rambling:

"Ms. Dan."

"Just call me Dan."

"Okay, Dan, I'm just feeling weird."

Lindsay began to recount her doubts:

"I'm just the godson of my grandmother, but why are people so happy to teach me knowledge and skills? This enthusiasm ...... It's already above normal, which makes me a little uncomfortable. ”

Dan blinked, then laughed out loud.

"Ha, it's Hongyue who hasn't said it yet."

"It's okay, then I'll tell you!"

"Anrui, Finn, and I want you to inherit our skills. You must know that this ghost place on the hidden border has been isolated from the world for ten years! Whether out of self-responsibility or other messy ideas, it is important to find a suitable heir. ”

Lindsay was still a little puzzled.

"But as far as I know, one person's essentia can only sublimate one skill, and if I choose one of the three of you, then the other two will not be working in vain......"

Poke –

Before Lindsay could finish speaking, Dan poked Lindsay's head with her rough fingers, and said in the same tone as educating a child:

"So what?"

"This hellish place is already like this, and there is nothing wrong with passing on your abilities and cultivating a young man, this is not the time to cherish yourself."

Having said that, Dan also understands that Lindsay is not a child who can be persuaded by a few words of temptation. So she changed her previous attitude and seriously expressed her thoughts:

"You don't need to be psychologically burdened."

"We teach you the art of our own volition, and your mission is only one, which is to study hard and finally choose your own future path, no matter what path it is."

While chatting, the two came to the edge of town.

Following the gravel paved road, the outline of the cemetery church can already be seen in the distance.

Suddenly, the Huntress came to an abrupt halt.

"The life of a man...... That's it! ”

She removes the bow and arrow from her back with great speed, then pulls the string, aiming for the distance and letting go.

Whoosh –

The arrows shoot at a speed that is difficult to catch with the naked eye, and then disappear from view.

At this time, Dan smiled at Lindsay:

"Only by seizing the opportunity will good fortune beckon you."

Lindsay couldn't figure out what was going on.

The two men walked closer to the church, and the tail feathers of the arrows were leaning against the edge of the wall. Lindsay went to check and found a gray hare, which had appeared in the weeds next to the cemetery.

At least a hundred meters away, it was killed by a single arrow from the huntress!

At the distance, Lindsay couldn't see the details around the church at all, but the huntress could spot a hare moving in the weeds.

“……”

Lindsay was silent as she picked up the hare.

The arrow hit the hare in the heart, and the score was perfect.

This hapless little guy didn't even have time to struggle before he died, and his fur was very intact.

Lindsey ran to Dan with the hare in her arms.

At this time, the huntress pretended to stroke her hair elegantly, and put on a heroic pose to Lindsay:

"How's that, awesome?"

Lindsey nodded vigorously:

"Awesome, I'll definitely learn from you!"

Dan saw Lindsay nodding his head, and immediately emphatically affirmed:

"Ordinary hunters can't do what they just did, so they have to use your essentia awakening skill."

“……”

At this moment, Lindsay was also a little speechless like Finn before.

But the huntress doesn't care about this at all.

She took the hare from Lindsay's hand, pulled out the arrow and examined it, and led the way to the church.

The two of them walked into the chapel, and it was not early at this moment.

Red Moon sat quietly in the church, her gaze as calm as water falling on the pages of the book in her hand until she was interrupted by the two who returned to the church.

"Dan?"

Red Moon looked at the huntress with a calm gaze.

Dan smiled flatteringly and sent the hare that had just been beaten down to the red moon.

"There's a rabbit out there munching on the turf, and I've brought it to you."

Hongyue saw through the huntress's ulterior motives at a glance, so she turned her head directly to look at Lindsay next to her:

"Lindsay?"

In the face of her godmother's inquiry, Lindsay, of course, replied honestly:

"That's it, because of tomorrow's teaching, Dan wants to ......"

"Well, I'll tell you!" The huntress obviously didn't want to trouble a child even about it, so she grabbed the conversation and took the initiative to explain. "Tomorrow, I'm going to take Lindsay outside to experience the hunt for myself."

"In preparation for the trip, I hope this kid will be with me tonight."

After listening to the huntress's story, Red Moon was neither happy nor sad, and did not express her opinion.

She just looked at Lindsay and gave the choice to her own Lindsay herself:

"Lindsay, would you like to spend the night at Dan's house?"

Red Moon asked seriously.

Lindsay also thought carefully before finally answering:

"If it's for learning, then of course I'm willing."

Hongyue nodded slightly:

"Well, then study hard."

"Dan is a seasoned master on the hunt and can be trusted."

After instructing Lindsay, Red Moon looked at the huntress next to her again:

"Take Lindsay out tomorrow, when will you be able to come back?"

The huntress confidently replied:

"I don't take my kids on a long hunting trip. I'll leave tomorrow morning, and I'll probably check the traps or something, and I'll be back in the evening. ”

Red Moon nodded, and just like that, she allowed Lindsay's request to follow Dan back.

The goal was achieved, and Dan was clearly in a good mood.

The two said goodbye to the nun, she took Lindsay outside, her steps were much lighter, and from time to time she began to talk to Lindsay:

"Let's go, let's go back and treat you to a good meal."

"Have a good meal?"

"Kill that ice badger! It was frozen hard in the snow, and it's still fresh. ”

"By the way, boy, have you ever drunk?"

"Don't drink it."

"Tsk-"

"I think kids should be a little more lively. Come on, give me a smile! ”

"Huh? Feed! ”

When Lindsey was pinched by the huntress on the cheek and forced to put on a smile.

He had to admit that he regretted it a little in his heart.
