Demon Hunter and His Cabin
Chapter 341 - Chapter 341 Chapter 341 Heritage Knight

Chapter 341: Chapter 341 Heritage Knight Chapter 341: Chapter 341 Heritage Knight After several attempts, Roger finally confirmed something when he opened that Cursed Gate and entered the world beyond.

His shadow had disappeared.

He was unclear about the state he was in, nor could he discern whether he had become a shadow himself.

In this world without shadows, Roger’s range of activity was very limited; as far as he could tell, it was confined to this abandoned manor.

He had asked Anna, but Anna had lost too many memories to provide a plausible explanation.

Roger also wanted to assimilate the abandoned manor, but after much consideration, he still temporarily gave up the idea.

Although the Misty World had brought Roger many benefits, the Mist Hut was situated in a Different Space, making it quite troublesome to enter and leave.

The new house at hand might well have the same issues as the Mist Hut.

Moreover, regarding the so-called Shadow Gate, he knew too little information at the moment; assimilating now would indeed be too blind.

Now that Claudia had given him the abandoned manor, Roger had a bird in hand; if he really couldn’t find a suitable house for assimilation…

At this thought, he left the abandoned manor and returned to the brilliantly lit courtyard.

The revelry in the room continued, and after informing Claudia, Roger planned to leave the place.

Having made a promise to Claudia, he needed to fulfill it as soon as possible. After casually taking a car from the garage, Roger drove down the mountain.

Due to the time difference, it was not too late for Henrik; Roger inquired about Henrik’s recent training progress.

The Axis Dharma Seal suited his personality, and the guy was making astonishing progress. Despite his questioning, Roger couldn’t get any information about the Shadow Gate from Henrik.

However, when Roger tentatively expressed his request, Henrik agreed without hesitation.

“This kind of work requires strong willpower, hmm… Since you asked, it means you have full trust and recognition in me.”

Henrik sounded utterly serious on the phone, but Roger didn’t hesitate to see through him.

“I hope you can cool down before saying something like that next time, at least catch your breath.”

“Ha ha.”

Henrik laughed awkwardly.

“In any case, I’ve got this. I’ll start arranging what I have at hand right now and fly to Dublin as soon as possible.”

“Wait for my good news!”

After finishing, he hung up the phone eagerly.

Roger received a text message from Veronia on his phone and calmly deleted the suggestive photo attached to it.

He didn’t choose to catch up with old friends at this time, instead finding a random hotel.

All throughout the night, he has been through numerous battles, met Claudia, and established cooperation with her.

More importantly, he discovered a place of mystery and found a third house suitable for assimilation.

His mind full of the Shadow Gate, although he had found some clues about Anna, the more he understood, the more enigmatic things seemed to become.

Behind Anna, there seemed to be a grand conspiracy.

And he himself had not forgotten the sword of Damocles hanging over his head.

Abraham.

The next morning, Roger called Veronia early to use her relationships in Dublin to help him screen suitable houses.

He had intended to ask Goway for help, but after making several calls, she didn’t answer.

Over several days, Roger had nearly searched all the peculiar houses in Dublin, but none met his criteria.

Having not found a suitable target in Dublin, Roger drove back to Blair County and after entering Goway’s manor, surprisingly encountered the loli he hadn’t seen in a long time.

“What happened?”

Goway’s face was full of scrapes, and Grace, following closely behind the girl, looked even more miserable.

Her left arm was broken at the elbow, and there should be two penetration wounds on her right chest and thigh, from which fresh blood soaked through as she walked.

Such injuries were considered extremely serious even for a Transcendent.

In the Transcendent World, losing a limb did not mean a permanent disability, but the medicine capable of Regeneration was extremely rare; even at Grace’s current level, it would cost a great deal.

“We ran into an accident…”

Seeing Roger, Goway’s anger faded a bit, as if she had been arguing with her brother about something.

“The Deerhead Spirit?”

Roger countered.

“Not one, but two!”

“A male and a female, and they’re both incredibly powerful. We were underprepared and suffered for it.”

“Apart from those two Deerhead Spirits, the monsters in the forest also started to rampage. To prevent them from breaking out of the sealed area, the Round Table Knight Order paid a heavy price.”

The speaker was Grace.

This once proud knight let out a bitter laugh and showed Roger the injuries on his body.

“You’re still going to that damned selection ceremony even like this?”

Goway’s eyes were red as she looked resentfully at her brother.

“I have no choice.”

Grace stretched out his only remaining arm, apparently intending to pat his sister’s head, but Goway was having none of it, angrily turning her head away.

“You’re going to die, don’t you realize how cruel the selection for the reserve captain is?”

“No matter how many people join, only one can survive!”

“Selection for the reserve captain?”

Roger was slightly stunned.

“Is it the Round Table Knight?”

What Roger referred to was not an ordinary knight of the Round Table Knight Order, but a Heritage Knight with a titled honor!

And the Heritage Knight of Eld was none other than Tristan, a knight filled with tragedy in the legends.

“If I remember correctly, the knight who just recently inherited the honor of Tristan hasn’t been in the position for very long…”

As he spoke, Roger suddenly realized something.

Grace nodded, “You guessed it right, the Heritage Knight has been sacrificed!”

“Due to insufficient preparation, the operation only dispatched three Heritage Knights, but I never expected that hiding in the forest were two Deerhead Spirits.”

“Heritage Knight Tristan died in combat and the other two were also seriously injured. Although we killed one of the Deerhead Spirits, the other one got away.”

“Eld has lost its Heritage Knight, and for a long time to come, before a new Heritage Knight emerges…”

“I’m afraid this place won’t become peaceful again.”

Having said that, Grace looked back at his sister, “Once my wounds are a bit better, I’ll go to the selection…”

“I hope you’ll come then.”

Goway turned her back, refusing to look at her brother.

Grace greeted Roger and then turned to leave.

Long after he had gone, Goway stared in the direction Grace had left with a face streaked with tears.

“Idiot, stubborn idiot!”

“Even if you hadn’t taken that hit for him, Captain Tristan wouldn’t have survived. He was too severely wounded.”

Roger didn’t make a sound, though he caught only bits and pieces, he could sense the ferocity of the battle.

After some time, Goway’s emotions finally settled, and Roger took the opportunity to raise his own question.

“Shadow Gate?”

Goway appeared thoughtful.

“Just a vague impression.”

She frowned, “Regarding this question, you’d better consult the Mountain Woman.”

“Mountain Woman?”

Roger thought of that frightening figure.

“Right.”

Goway nodded, giving Roger a glance.

“Don’t forget the condition you promised her last time.”

A sense of foreboding suddenly welled up in Roger’s heart.
