Sorry, But I Never Rely On Luck When Playing Cards

Chapter 136: Chapter 60: Master, I want to learn to eradicate demons_2

It seems that this isn’t what I’m good at dealing with.

But for the sake of completing the Instance Mission, I just have to grit my teeth and follow through.

Stepping over the threshold, I walked inside the courtyard.

"What a strong smell of alcohol..."

I immediately furrowed my brows.

The odor rushed into my nose, making me slightly uncomfortable.

In the middle of the small courtyard, there was a wooden bed for relaxation.

On the bed lay a disheveled man, perhaps around 30 years old.

"Huu...snoo...huu...snoo..."

With a scruffy beard and his mouth wide open, his snores resounded along with the rise and fall of his belly.

Several empty wine pots littered the ground around the bed.

"This is the exceptional demon hunter?"

Ree Shil thought about the mission brief and couldn’t help wanting to complain.

He felt that the guy looked more like a beggar.

"Mmm, you’re here?"

It seemed that Exterminator Thirteen had lazily opened his eyes upon detecting Ree Shil’s footsteps, yawning as he did so.

Although his mouth wasn’t facing Ree Shil, the smell of alcohol grew even stronger.

"Did you bring the recommendation letter?"

Before Ree Shil could answer, Exterminator Thirteen asked again.

Recommendation letter?

Ree Shil was taken aback by the question, yet he instinctively reached into his chest.

Only then did he realize that he had unknowingly changed into this world’s clothing, and there was a letter in his chest at some point.

It seemed that these were all arrangements made by the mysterious power of the Instance.

Uncertain, he handed the letter over.

"Alright, I’ve received it."

In the end, Exterminator Thirteen took the letter without even looking at it and crumpled it into a ball, tossing it onto the ground.

After all, he had already lost count of how many young boys had come to him seeking to learn his craft.

According to the Demon Extermination Residence’s rules, every demon hunter on the roster needed to teach and inherit their knowledge.

Put simply, it was to prevent the skill from being lost.

So most demon hunters wouldn’t act alone, and they would usually have one or two apprentices by their side.

But Exterminator Thirteen was an exception, he didn’t want to take on apprentices.

"If you want to become my apprentice, it’s simple."

"Just make me comfortable."

Upon hearing these words, Ree Shil immediately took a few steps back.

What kind of perverse, indecent language was everyone in this world so straightforward about!

Can I still quit the mission now?

Or should I kill the mission’s target first and then quit?

While pondering, he saw Exterminator Thirteen flip over and lie on his stomach.

Then Ree Shil felt like this man was seemingly composed of a binary code, his whole body full of zeroes.

"Come, help me massage my shoulders."

Fortunately, the other party’s words cleared up the misunderstanding.

However, when he walked over and saw the man’s loose clothes exposing half of his back, it was covered in sweat and dirt.

At an angle that Ree Shil couldn’t see, the corners of Exterminator Thirteen’s mouth faintly curved into a smile.

The boy looked delicate and properly dressed, surely he wouldn’t be able to tolerate this sort of treatment.

But the next moment, he heard Ree Shil seemingly spitting a few times onto his hands.

"Pah! Pah!"

In the blink of an eye, the feeling of disgust was reversed.

Although Exterminator Thirteen was sloppy, he certainly didn’t want to be massaged with saliva.

(Did I meet a formidable opponent?)

For a moment, he wavered and wanted to get up.

But after thinking about it, he decided not to lose face and endure it.

However, the moment those hands touched his shoulders, he couldn’t bear it and screamed before jumping up. freeweɓnovel.cѳm

"Ouch!"

He turned to look at his shoulder and saw a bruise beginning to form.

"You... you’re from the Demon Clan?!"

He frowned while clutching his shoulder, his face filled with doubt.

Why did this young boy’s hands have so much power? The instant before, it felt like he’d been bitten by a demon beast!

"No, you’re clearly a human!"

Immediately, he denied his own conclusion.

Even though he secretly executed his secret technique, he couldn’t detect a trace of demon qi on the guy before him.

He could disbelieve his own eyes, but he couldn’t disregard the secret techniques passed down by his family.

"Of course I’m a human. If you don’t believe me, you can check. My family lives in..."

Ree Shil blurted out a detailed piece of information.

All these background details appeared in his mind out of thin air.

This was also a helping hand from the Instance’s mysterious power.

However, once he had introduced himself, both of them lapsed into silence.

Ree Shil was contemplating how to win over this man’s favor to complete the mission.

Meanwhile, Exterminator Thirteen was pondering how to get rid of the annoying apprentice sent by the Demon Mansion.

In fact, he had many methods to drive people away.

However, as he had just suffered a loss, he decided to resort to his second technique.

That was to ignore him.

Looking up at the sky, he realized it wasn’t early anymore.

With that, he silently walked out the door, not giving Ree Shil another glance during this time.

"Hmm? Where are you going?"

Even Ree Shil’s inquiry fell on deaf ears.

Just like that, Exterminator Thirteen went out to buy some food for tonight, chatting casually with acquaintances he bumped into, then detouring to buy a few wine jars.

It wasn’t until the sun began setting that he leisurely returned home.

Seeing the empty courtyard, he sneered disdainfully.

With such little patience, how could he possibly learn the craft?

But when he walked into the room, he saw Ree Shil sitting on a stool.

"You’re back."

His natural tone made Exterminator Thirteen feel like, for a moment, that this boy was the actual owner of the house.

(Ignore, ignore, ignore.)

He silently repeated those words to himself and then sat down at the table.

After arranging the dishes and drink, he began to eat.

"..."

Seeing that the other party seemed determined not to pay attention to him, Ree Shil had no choice but got up by himself.
