The weather was fine, but the weather was fine.
…
The sun was shining, the sky was blue and the clouds were white.
Lemons had another good day today, and the villagers were busy in the fields as usual, harvesting ripe cherries.
On the dirt road outside the village, a horse slowly approached. Looking closely, there were two people sitting on it.
The people on the horse were Cliff and Shen Tong, who had just returned from Steiger.
The two seemed to be a little lacking in their mental state, because they had been traveling all night last night, causing them to sway on the horseback.
Shen Tong sat in the back in silence, thinking about what happened last night on the way.
Last night's experience had a great impact on him. Not only did he see a real vampire, but he also saw the so-called magic weapons.
Cliff, this man is really mysterious. Not only does he have unfathomable strength, but he also has a silver chain that seems to be magic, which can kill a vampire comparable to the top of Genin in one move.
Shentong seriously suspected that Cliff might be the so-called magician, otherwise he would not be so powerful. So he asked about this matter on the way last night, but was denied by the other party himself.
"I am just an ordinary priest, sent by the church to preach."
"If you want to know more, please worship me as your master first." Cliff replied with a lazy look.
Shentong's black face twitched, and he sighed that Cliff was really an old fox, trying to use this method to lure him into worshipping him as his master.
Unfortunately, Cliff underestimated Shentong's state of mind. He would not fall for this kind of trick to deceive children.
The only thing that Shentong regretted was that he failed to kill Ogbu himself last night, so the system task was not completed, which meant that he had to find time to hunt vampires in the future.
When he thought of this, Shen Tong was very distressed.
After seeing the power of vampires, he also understood one thing, that his strength as a Genin was far from enough.
And what he dealt with last night was only the lowest level, and it was very difficult to deal with it, let alone dealing with higher-level ones.
Unless he opened the Sharingan to fight.
But the conditions for opening the Sharingan are really a bit harsh. If someone accidentally sees it, he will definitely be accused of being a vampire.
At that time, it will not only bring trouble to Shen Tong, but also bring disaster to his family.
"Ah... This is really hard to get by."
Shen Tong sighed while riding on the horse. The feeling of having the Sharingan but not daring to use it at will is really helpless and infuriating.
"I must find a way to solve this problem after I go back, otherwise the restrictions on me are too great." Shen Tong said with a secret determination.
Soon, the two rode into the village on horseback.
Along the way, many villagers saw them, and they were all shocked.
"Look, isn't that Shen Tong?"
"He came back so soon, could it be that... he has already hunted down a vampire?"
"Impossible! They just set out yesterday, how could they have done it in one day?"
"Look at that, everyone, there is a bloody bag on the horse's back, could it be... that it contains the head of a vampire!"
"Oh my God... this is really crazy."
"Quick, go back and inform the village chief!"
The news of Shen Tong's return spread quickly to every corner of the village.
"What? You said that kid really killed a vampire?!"
In the guard base in the two-story wooden house at the entrance of the village, Comps looked at his subordinates in shock.
"It's true, many people saw it."
"I heard that there was a blood-red bag hanging on the horse's back, and it was said that it contained the head of a vampire." A subordinate of the guard answered with a trembling voice.
Comps's face was uncertain after hearing this. He didn't expect that the bet would be settled so quickly. He punched the table angrily and cursed: "Damn it!"
"It must be Cliff who is helping behind the scenes. Otherwise, how could he, a child, defeat the vampire alone?"
Comps roared unwillingly, especially when he thought that his son was still bedridden. As a father, it was really hard to swallow this breath.
So he immediately summoned all his subordinates, took the shotgun and ran to Shentong's house.
On the other side, Shentong had returned home.
When Azeya saw that his son had returned safely, he ran out of the house excitedly.
"My good child, I'm so glad that you're okay." Azeya hugged Shentong tightly, sobbing softly with tears in her eyes.
"Mother..."
Shentong looked at the woman in front of him, feeling warm and self-blaming. Azeya must have been worried about him all day.
One night, he stretched out his arms and hugged each other tightly.
"Brother!"
Eric also ran out of the house and quickly joined the hugging camp. Jeff stood in front of the door and looked at the mother and her two children with a smile on his face.
At this time, Cliff got off the horse.
He looked at the reunited family and said with a smile: "Jeff, Mrs. Azeya, I didn't let you down and brought the divine pupil back."
Azeya let go of the divine pupil after hearing the voice, walked to Cliff with gratitude, and saluted respectfully to thank him: "Mr. Cliff, thank you very much for your help, we will always remember this kindness."
Cliff smiled faintly after hearing this: "No... This is what I should do as a servant of God. If you want to thank someone, thank the church. It is their help."
"So that's the case. May God bless the church."
Azeya quickly put her hands on her chest devoutly and silently said a prayer blessing.
"Cliff."
At this moment, the village chief Taylor also led a group of villagers to come.
"Mr. Village Chief." Cliff stepped forward to greet him.
"How is it going?" Taylor asked as soon as they met.
"It's all done."
Cliff smiled and shook the blood bag in his hand, which shocked Taylor.
"God, you really did it?"
"Great, this way, the little pupil will be safe."
"Cliff, tell us how you killed the vampire!"
Taylor and a group of villagers surrounded Cliff, saying in admiration.
"Humph!"
Suddenly, a discordant voice came.
I saw Comps leading the village guards, holding a shotgun and appearing not far away.
"Comps..."
Cliff frowned when he saw it. The other party's posture was definitely not to congratulate.
"Don't be happy too early, the bet needs further confirmation."
"Since you have hunted the vampire, please open the bag to see if it is true or not." Comps called Cliff and asked him to open the bag for verification.
Cliff was not in a hurry. He slowly untied the bag and took out a hideous bloody head from it. It was Ogbu's head.
"Oh my god..."
"It's so scary. It's really a vampire!"
"Mom, I'm scared."
All the villagers, including Comps, were horrified when they saw the head.
What amazed everyone was that the head immediately burned after it came into contact with the sun, and finally turned into a pile of black ash and disappeared completely.
"You all saw it. Real vampires can't exist in the sun." Cliff shouted loudly.
Pah... Pah...
Just two seconds after the voice fell, Comps actually took the lead in applauding, and his steely face was full of sneers.
"Amazing, you are really worthy of being Mr. Cliff. You can easily kill even vampires."
"But... this matter can't be over yet."
"What do you mean, do you want to default on your debt?" Cliff's face suddenly turned cold.
A hint of murderous intent flashed in Shentong's eyes. Simon's father was always finding faults. He really would not stop until he killed himself.
Comps smiled evilly, "Haha... Don't get me wrong, I won't do that."
"I heard that you were a demon hunter under the church, which is an organization that specializes in hunting vampires. Today I see that you are indeed worthy of your reputation."
"Don't change the subject. Let's talk about what you want."
"Okay, if I'm not mistaken, you should have killed this vampire."
"According to the requirements of the bet, it must be killed by the person himself to count."
As soon as these words came out, all the villagers looked at Shentong with doubtful eyes.
Yes, how could a child of only 12 years old kill a vampire? It must be someone who helped him do all this.
Cliff's anger almost burst out. He didn't expect the other party to use himself as an example. Now it would be difficult to clarify even if he had proof, unless Shentong killed it again in front of everyone.
It has to be said that Comps's strategy was insidious and clever. He used people's suspicion to directly deny the success of the bet.
Even if Shen Tong was safe in the end, he would definitely be accused of cheating, and then he would be ostracized by the villagers and lose his foothold.
Even the village chief Taylor couldn't stand it anymore and stood up to persuade him: "Comps, we are all fellow villagers and neighbors, let's just let it go."
However, Comps didn't give him face at all, and still sneered, "Unless you can prove that he killed her, otherwise just accept the punishment!"
After that, he led his men to load their rifles and aim at Shen Tong together.
Facing more than a dozen black muzzles, Shen Tong stood there expressionlessly, but when he looked at Comps, the killing intent was already hard to find.
Cover up.
"Since you were the one who was aggressive first, don't blame me for killing him!"
After secretly saying this in anger, Shentong couldn't hold back any longer.
He strode out under the gaze of everyone, and then said coldly: "I can prove it."
"What?" Comps was stunned at first, then sneered and said: "How do you want to prove it?"
"I can beat you!"
