However, the Hunter restrained himself. He closed his eyes and fell into deep thought.

Lin Yue didn’t understand, "Master, that is your son, won’t you go up and recognize him?"

"Tell me, what does Irina want me to do?" The Hunter’s words were filled with solemnity, as if he deeply distrusted everything that had been arranged here.

The female assistant said indifferently, "Irina only asked me to bring you here to see your son, nothing more."

"Is that so?" The Hunter looked at the female assistant lightly, and then said, "There should be something else that you want to tell me."

The female assistant nodded, "Irina said that if she fails to complete the mission this time and doesn’t come back, you should take the child away, hoping that you can take good care of Will." After finishing, the assistant’s expression turned melancholic, "In fact, Will is very sensible. Many of the children here have not had their parents come to visit them for a long time, so every time Irina comes to visit Will, he clings tightly to her hand, probably because he’s afraid that this departure might be forever."

"Don’t think that Will is so lively and active; he’s actually very frightened. He’s afraid he will end up like other children here, without parents to visit him anymore. For Will..." The assistant wanted to continue, but the Hunter interrupted her firmly, "Stop talking. I’m going to Dark City. I will definitely bring Irina back."

At this moment, Lin Yue finally understood the female assistant’s intentions and couldn’t help saying, "You all really have a lot of schemes, using other people’s emotions to achieve your goals. Are you proud of yourselves?"

The female assistant replied righteously, "If your conscience allows it, you can totally neglect to save her."

"Yes, it’s all my fault; I owe Irina and her son." The Hunter looked at Will who was playing, a gratified expression on his face, "I have never been a good father, nor have I fulfilled the responsibilities a father should have, so the best way I can make amends is to safeguard this bond for Will. I will go to Dark City; I won’t let Will lose Irina, but..." The Hunter turned around and looked solemnly at the female assistant, "Please relay a message for me: this is the last time I help you. After this is over, Irina and her son will have nothing to do with you anymore. If you don’t let them go, then you’ll be making an enemy of me."

"Alright, I will deliver your message." Intimidated by the Hunter’s righteous fury, the assistant’s heart trembled slightly.

The Hunter couldn’t help but glance at Will again, then gritted his teeth secretly and strode away.

"Wait, Master, wait for me, I’m going with you," Lin Yue hurriedly followed.

The Hunter’s expression was stern, "No, it’s too dangerous there. I can’t even handle it alone, much less take care of you."

Lin Yue wore a nonchalant expression, "Master, please trust me. I can take care of myself."

"But..." The Hunter knew of the dangers of the journey; he didn’t want the next successor of Jian Shen to fall into peril as well.

Lin Yue cracked a smile, seemingly indifferent, "Master, I know you’re worried about me, about the Jian Shen legacy. I promise I’ll be cautious, listen to you, and I believe the Hunter’s Guild will also offer some help, right?" After speaking, Lin Yue looked at the female assistant.

The assistant nodded, "According to the information Irina sent previously, this time there is a high possibility of completely eradicating Organization X. The Hunter’s Guild has also assembled elites to assist you in entering Dark City."

Hearing the word ’elites’, Lin Yue became curious, but the Hunter frowned, "Is it them? These people, each with unique talents, are usually unorthodox. Is it really a good idea to assemble them together?"

"No choice; the difficulty this time is too high, they are the only ones we can turn to." The assistant said while opening the car door, "Time is limited, let’s set out quickly. Hopefully, we’ll make it in time. And those people are getting restless waiting, you know their temper."

"I really don’t want to cooperate with that bunch of temperamental people," the Hunter sighed in resignation, but still got into the car.

Lin Yue followed immediately, asking another question, "Master, who are these people exactly that make you so troubled at the mention of them?"

The Hunter explained, "To fight against vampires, ordinary people are not enough, so the Hunter’s Guild recruited some uniquely talented individuals from all over the world to strengthen our fight against Organization X. I am one of them. But those people are weird and difficult to manage. Cooperation often doesn’t go smoothly."

Without mincing words, the assistant commented, "You say they are temperamental, but in our eyes, you’re no different."

Hearing this, the Hunter’s expression turned awkward, "Don’t talk nonsense. Irina compared me; I am the one among them who is most like a normal person."

"Sorry, but Irina was just trying to hook you, otherwise how could there be a Will?" After saying this, the assistant couldn’t help but laugh.

The Hunter’s expression turned even more awkward, and he decided to drop the subject.

Not wanting to tease the Hunter any further and risk a fallout from taking the joke too far, the assistant changed the subject, "Soon you’ll be meeting those with unique talents, so it’s best not to use the name ’Hunter’ anymore. They might have objections to it."

"What do you mean?" Lin Yue was somewhat confused.

The assistant added, "Hunter is just an honorary title from the Hunter’s Guild. Using the name Hunter within the Guild is fine, but you’ve left the Hunter’s Guild. Why continue using the title Hunter? Is it to conceal your real name?"

To this, the Hunter said, "I’ve never used the title Hunter myself. It’s because I’ve killed so many vampires that the vampires started calling me Hunter, and over time, others began to call me that too."

Lin Yue was curious, "Yeah, Master, I’ve known you for so long, yet I don’t know your real name."

"The ninth successor of Jian Shen. I’m now using this title, and I don’t think those people will have any objections." The Hunter said, causing the assistant some difficulty, "That title works, but we can’t have everyone continuously call you that, right? I remember Irina mentioning your real name to me, Cang Luo."

"Whatever!" Cang Luo, the Hunter, clasped his hands behind his head, leaned back, closed his eyes to rest, seemingly uninterested in continuing the topic.

Lin Yue and the assistant felt that the Hunter wasn’t very fond of the name as if there were some painful memories associated with it that he didn’t wish to revisit.
