Mystique:Demon Hunter

On June 17, in the Bay Tree Bar in Bayam City, a group of drunkards were surrounding the boxing ring in the middle, shouting and swearing, venting the mental stress caused by drifting at sea for a long time.

At the bar, a bartender was concentrating on wiping glasses and turned a deaf ear to these harsh noises.

"Ding dong"

A few pennies were thrown into the glass that the bartender was wiping. He looked up and found a man coming in front of him.

This man is about 1.78 meters tall, wearing a boat-shaped hat, with a thin face, sharp edges, and a very aggressive appearance.

A lock of black hair hangs down on his forehead, slightly covering his dark green eyes on the left side, making his original cold and hard image look much softer.

"Calm down Squall," the bartender said coldly.

"What's the latest news?" Squall pulled up his black trench coat and asked with a smile on his face.

"Death Flag and Blackwater fought over a ring, but were caught by the Punisher and arrested several people."

The bartender took out a few pennies from the cup and put them in his pocket, took out the cup from the counter, poured a glass of beer, and said in a calm voice.

"This is not new news." Squall knocked on the bar and said.

"The leader of the Blackwater Pirates who got the ring was affected by the ring that night and lost control and turned into a monster." The bartender pushed the glass of beer to Squall and said.

"Haha~ They are really good at seeking death. They can touch this kind of thing? Everyone in Blackwater must be dead." Squall sat down on the chair in front of the bartender, holding the wine glass in his hand and playing with it.

"Of course, they were all killed by monsters, but the interesting things are yet to come."

"oh?"

"The monster was led outside the city by someone unknown, and then killed. The pollution was eliminated, and the ring was taken away."

"It's interesting. It seems there is a new face in this city. Do you know who it is?" Squall stopped playing with the cup.

"No news yet."

Squall drank the beer in one gulp, returned the empty glass to the bartender, turned and left the bar.

He went out and came to the alley outside the bar, preparing to go to the street to take a taxi.

At this time, he saw a blond young man wearing blue aristocratic clothing walking towards him. The young man looked leisurely and looked like a noble child out for fun.

Squall glanced at it and didn't pay much attention.

In Bayam, it is not uncommon for young people to come to the sea to find excitement.

Most of them have naive illusions that they can come here and work hard for a career.

However, in most cases, they either lose their conscience and become a pirate with a lot of blood debt.

Or, it will become a cold corpse and eventually sink to the bottom of the Sunia Sea.

Squall continued walking and passed the young man.

At this moment, Squall suddenly felt the hairs on his back stand up, and a sense of crisis brought by his intuition surged into his heart.

He did not hesitate, and accelerated his body to rush forward. On the way, he took out a sharp scalpel, then quickly turned around and stabbed directly.

But there was no one in front of him at this moment. At this moment, a hidden sword pierced the back of his heart and penetrated his chest.

Squall endured the severe pain, immediately took out a black iron-colored talisman, gritted his teeth and read out an ancient Hermetic word:

"Scream!"

The talisman suddenly shattered and disappeared, completing the sacrifice.

The invisible sound wave spread like a tsunami, even spreading to the nearby tavern.

Squall took this opportunity to escape from this place, but the next second, he felt that the scene in front of him was spinning. He saw a familiar headless body.

And the young man behind him in noble attire was Gawain who came to hunt Squall.

"Tsk, tsk, flash followed by backstab is indeed a time-honored and useful tactic." Gawain said while looking at Squall's body.

He doesn't care at all whether the method of killing is honorable or not, whether it's honorable or not.

In his opinion, it's time to decide life and death with others, so why should we consider those who have something and don't have it?

In this version where old coins are rampant, of course he would poison if he could, and if he couldn't poison, he would sneak attack. In the end, he would choose to confront someone head-on when he had no other choice.

Due to the intuition brought by the Criminal Path, it is difficult to deal with an Extraordinary who is a Criminal Path using conventional methods.

Therefore, Gawain stored the plan to deal with Squall in the Demon Hunter Emblem.

And he left himself with the idea that he would get his memory back when he got behind Squall.

Through this method, Gawain completed the surprise attack on Squall.

As for the screaming talisman that Squall threw, I can't say that it was of any use at all. I can only say that it was of some use, and it still made his mind buzz.

After decapitating Squall, he quickly put away the Salamane in his hand, picked up Squall's head, and wrapped it with the cloth he had prepared.

Then he used the Skull of Gul'dan to accelerate the extraction of the "Broken-Winged Angel" extraordinary characteristics in Squall's body, and then quickened his pace and left the alley.

After a while, some people in the tavern poked their heads out and looked out. When they saw the headless corpse lying in the alley, they all immediately went crazy.

In the Loen settlement of Bayam, in a garden house, a strong man is sitting on the sofa in the living room. His lips are thick, his skin is dark, and his hair is curled up like the kind of steel balls commonly seen in factories.

.

He is Admiral Blood's second officer, "Iron" Maiviti.

Suddenly, the door of the bungalow was pushed open, and a pirate wearing a yellow-brown straw hat walked in quickly and said: "Boss, Squall was killed."

Strong anger and malice suddenly burst out of Maiviti's eyes. He stared at the pirate and asked in a cold voice: "Huntley, what's going on?"

"The Geranium Bar, Squall went to the Geranium Bar to inquire about the news, and was beheaded by an unknown Beyonder after he went out." Huntley hurriedly replied.

Maiviti stood up, came to Huntley, stared at him, and asked: "Where are the extraordinary characteristics?"

"It was taken away." Huntley swallowed and said nervously.

"How long did the battle last?" Maiviti asked with a dull look.

"It is said that it was a few seconds." Huntley lowered his head, his forehead covered with fine sweat.

"In a few seconds, Squall was beheaded and his extraordinary characteristics were taken away. It seems that the screaming spell had no effect."

Maiviti returned to the sofa, sat down again, and said:

"First arrange for someone to search for information about this person. Once you find it, send someone to notify me first. Don't take action without permission.

In the next two days, I will prepare to attend the pirate conference with the captain, and we will deal with this matter when I come back."

"Yes, I know the boss." Huntley breathed a sigh of relief and replied.
