Hunter of the Perished World

[0180] Then there was light (3)

Everyone lost their family.

Everyone lost a friend.

Everyone has lost their loved ones.

When the world had just been destroyed, there was absolutely no one who did not lose something. Those who could not endure the loss died on their own. The person who had to live after the loss had to keep losing something.

It's fear, it's fear, it's despair.

It was also human.

Only humans who lost them and gained cruelty and violence can now survive in a recently extinct world.

There were many who could not endure the process. You can't give up your fear, you die from monsters, you can't overcome your fears, you can't raise your weapons, you can't overcome your despair.

There were those who could not abandon their humanity and plunder it. They were all eliminated from the competition, and only those who survived it survived. No one argued that the process was difficult and painful.

But there was a man who was not born carrying something to lose in the first place.

Fear, despair, sadness, fear, frustration, humanity.

There was a man who couldn't lose it because he didn't have it in the first place.

So at the moment of the end of the world, it was like having all the conditions of survival after the end of life.

When Gene first encountered the girl, she killed two humans who were trying to intimidate her and then slaughtered her and burned her body in the fire. Even one human was still alive with his eyes wide open.

About twelve years old, the girl was roasting meat in the fire and gathering live human flesh. It was a frighteningly expressionless face.

I also enjoyed screaming while biting the flesh of a living human with my teeth.

Gene thought it was a witch at first. The girl who saw Gene was reluctant to attack, and although she was accustomed to violence, she was even more accustomed to it, so she was forced to be disabled.

The girl laughed helplessly at Jin.

‘It was a joke. Help me. I'll do whatever it takes. ’

When she thought her life was in danger, she quickly lowered her tail. A girl with no pride would do anything to survive.

Tails down for the strong, and ruthless for the weak. It was human, but it deserved to be called a monster. The girl said she would do anything without hesitation, and that included anything other than death.

Having a little chat, Gene was able to understand the girl's peculiarity. Stubborn, enjoys killing.

The world was a more dangerous and terrible place than ever. The demons judge, and the humans have to hide somewhere. The most dangerous and painful time since the destruction was decades after the destruction.

Gene wasn't much interested in her, but she followed him. The reason was simple.

Jinn was the only safe place in this cruel and senseless world. That's why no matter what Gene thinks of himself, he doesn't think of falling next to him.

Jean was also relaxed enough at that time to give a heart to a monster who had lost his humanity. Or maybe it needed cheap sentiment that we were protecting something in a no-good time.

The girl naturally learned how to handle a gun while watching the demon-hunter hunt, and soon learned how to handle swords, monsters, and humans.

Even after a few years of not teaching, the girl became a great hunter. About that time, Ashfile was named himself. The girl said, "Is there a better name in the world that has been reduced to ashes?"

From the moment she met him, emotions were extremely rare. I didn't cry, and I wasn't happy. The expressionless little girl was also crude to Jin, but quite arrogant.

I wasn't interrupted.

Looking at the conveniences of the emotions that the expressionless little boy shines, the hunter feels that something is filling the well of his emotions, which is running out. Those were pretty impressive moments for Gene.

Jean didn't hit a girl because she still had a lot of scars carved into her chest.

And Gene realizes the very simple truth that people change.

About five years after Gene and Ashfile were together, Ashfile began to express his feelings to Jin. I showed them laughing, crying, angry, joyful, and sad.

She travels with Gene gradually to find out what it is to be human. He was an excellent hunter, and Ashfile was talented at hunting and slaughtering, even though he wasn't a demon-hunter.

Jean once told Leona that she never had an apprentice.

Of course, Ashfile is not a student.

Gene gave Ashfile the power of the Demon Hunter, the Dark Bone, just when he was convinced that she would only use it on slatters and monsters. She had no reason to refuse that she was given a powerful power.

However, after receiving the Darkbone, I realized that Ashfile was overlooking a very important fact. No, Gene told me later on purpose.

Demon hunters don't cooperate unless it's something special.

Basically, Demon Hunter moves separately. To do that, Gene handed out the Darkbones and created another demon-hunter. Collaboration is possible even when it is impossible to do it alone, and there are many situations where collaboration is impossible due to lack of communication.

Gene gives Ashfile the task of being a vampire hunter, and when he says to move aside, Ashfile cries out.

I begged him to take it back because I didn't need it.

But it is indispensable. It is possible to kill Ashfile and take its power, but it is impossible as long as it is alive.

Gene thought Ashfile would be sad.

But I didn't think it would come to that.

"You made me! ’

People change.

It changes somehow, but it doesn't just change right. Nor does Orlot change in the wrong direction, but human change sometimes implies warping.

"You made me! ’

Love is not just love. Love includes obsession.

Sometimes, the obsession grows bigger than love.

"Now you want to abandon me? Don't make me laugh! You made all of me! Teach me how to hunt! Teach me how to survive! Teach me the letters! You even taught me how to think! You've made up my mind! You're not gonna say no, are you? I even started thinking the way you taught me! Even this heart is not mine! You know what I'm saying? I'm not me. I'm the Devil Hunter Gene! You're the one who turned me into an ash file with nothing and nothing! And now you want me to leave? Hunt vampires? Don't talk nonsense! ’

Ashfile snatches at his head and cries out in a feeble rage.

"Whether you're responsible for me as a child, or as a friend, or as a woman, you're responsible for me! Do something! I'm ready for any of these three. Be like a daughter, be like a friend! Take it off and I'll take it off! Please... Please... ’

Ashfile loved Jean as a parent, loved her as a friend, loved her as a lover. He was pouring out all the love he had to feel for many beings in his life.

Gene didn't know that Ashfile would come out like this.

But I knew you'd be obsessed with it. Gene didn't give you the Darkbone for Ash's files.

Gene needed a demon-hunter. I needed a 'monster with extraterrestrial skills’ to share the demon hunter's power. And if there is such a thing, it simply empowers them.

Gene gave them the power of the Darkborn and gave them a mission.

Ashfile had the optimal conditions and skills to become a demon-hunter on all conditions.

‘I am a demon-hunter. ’

Gene said coldly.

‘I can't let emotions distract me. ’

Gene was cold.

"Hunt the Vampire. ’

The first demon-hunter was probably a more brutal acquired psychopath than the native psychopath called the Ashfile.

"Hehehe! Please, please! Please, take me with you! Take me with you! Father! Don't leave me! I need you! I love you! I don't have a world without you! I don't want to live! ’

‘Unfortunately.’

Gene thought he was using people ruthlessly.

Demon hunters aren't just called demons for no reason.

Jin, the first demon-hunter.

When I had to be a demon, I could always be a demon. It was powerful, overwhelming, and had sharp teeth and claws. Sometimes the creature that bites even humans is far from a hero.

Again.

Gene knew Ashfile would be obsessed.

I didn't think it would be so morbidly obsessed.

But that didn't make Jean sad.

‘Demons are not infinite. ’

‘W-what is it...? ’

‘If all the demons of the world disappear, let us be together. ’

If Ashfile's distorted mind shows a pathological obsession, Gene used that pathological obsession.

‘It's not that you and I won't see each other until then. There are times when we have to fight together to hunt demons. But we need to split up. ’

‘I, I, really.... Really.... Really? Oh, when all the demons are dead... Keep coming, me and me, will you? ’

Ashfile's eyes flush with a feeble bucket of breath, and she continues to cry. Gene replied boldly, looking at Ash's file, which was both psychopathic and changed at the same time.

‘Yes.'

There is only one person in the world who is significant to Ashfile.

It was Jean's word.

That's why Ashfile had to get up because it was hard to feel sad. Ashfile's eyes were glowing brightly after waking up from several days of grief.

‘I will wipe out the devil's seed from the world. ’

Ashfile confidently said that, looking at Gin.

‘So, Father. ’

‘ ……. ’

‘Wait for me. ’

In fact, she hunted the most demons in the world.

‘Cause I will give you the blood of every demon in the world. ’

She was already one full-blown demon-hunter back then.

When the demon hunt was over, we decided to be together.

That was the reward Ashfile agreed to receive.

That's why Ashfile became a demon-hunter.

That was all she had.
