Demon Hunter and His Cabin-Chapter 1068 - 761 Establishment of Branch Fractions
Chapter 1068: Chapter 761 Establishment of Branch Fractions free𝑤ebnovel.com
Since Chloe chose to escape, Roger would not expose her actively.
Perhaps one day, when Chloe is fully mentally prepared, she will take the initiative to find Roger, but that day may never come.
If a lie is long-lasting enough to cover one’s entire life, then truth and falsehood don’t seem so important.
Early the next morning, Roger bid farewell to Emil and temporarily left here. Before he set off, many people came to see him off, but Kenneth was not among them.
He was still using the thin body of a young noble, while Roger’s true form was hidden in the surrounding space.
Now all his strength had returned, and many things could be put on the agenda.
The wheels rolled southward in the bleak autumn wind as the weather gradually cooled.
They saw many dilapidated villages and emaciated farmers. Changes had already spread here, with environmental forces starting to affect the real world.
"Where are we going?"
Emily asked.
Roger opened his eyes, the light in his eyes flickered and disappeared, and he found his body again, his cultivation progress skyrocketing.
If his true form appeared, the distinctive vertical pupils would be hard to ignore.
That was power from the World Serpent; the Eye of Truth had already merged into the Hunter’s Cabin, and also promoted the development of the Axis Sword Seal.
This was no longer simple illusion technique and mental disturbance.
"Going home."
"Back to the place we used to live."
Roger replied.
"Home?!" Chloe exclaimed with surprise.
She thought she would never have the chance to go back there.
"But Havier’s family..."
Although knowing Roger was very powerful now, Chloe still believed that a count’s deterrence was greater, as there was no standard for reference.
"Don’t worry, they can no longer pose any threat."
Roger smiled, Chloe hesitated for a moment but chose to believe in Roger.
The return journey was monotonous and tedious, but with hope in their hearts, it wasn’t so boring.
Although they hadn’t been away for long, it seemed everyone was full of anticipation.
At dusk.
The orange-red sun lazily hung on the horizon, casting a glow on the edges of the withered leaves, accompanied by the light sound of hooves, the chief guard put away his whip.
The speed gradually slowed down, stopping in front of the iron gate.
It wasn’t the imagined decay; the manor was bright and new, seemingly unchanged since the night they left.
"Someone?"
Chloe asked with confusion as she stepped off the carriage.
Creek.
The big door was opened from inside, and a tall figure emerged.
He bowed in respect, his attitude towards Roger almost reverent.
"You have returned, my master."
"You did well, Ox."
Roger smiled and led the way into the manor.
Ox’s gaze was steady as he nodded at Chloe and the others. Although Chloe instinctively didn’t want to interact with this eerie man, she returned a smile out of trust in Roger.
Previous servants were all dismissed, but the return of the master quickly brought life back to the manor. Although some time had passed, every room was impeccably clean.
They found their rooms and places with ease and quickly integrated back into their past life.
The sun set in the west and night fell, with lights lit in the rooms.
Roger sat behind the desk while Ox stood respectfully across from him.
"I killed Havier’s father, and the subsequent unrest has been thoroughly handled."
Ox’s face was calm, no longer the hunted and panicked federal spy.
"It should have been uneventful, but the count retaliated indiscriminately, and this place was within his strike range, so I had to act."
Roger waved his hand, "Handle such matters yourself."
"Have you shaken off the federal pursuit?" He asked casually.
Ox nodded, "I am of low status, soon no one cared."
"Hmm... that’s good too. Breaking free from their control, you can develop on your own."
As he spoke, another figure materialized in the room out of nowhere.
"Turn around... do not resist."
The voice came from behind, and Ox turned, then saw a stranger’s face.
For some reason, from this figure, he could feel a calming and familiar sense.
Then he saw a pair of yellow vertical pupils.
A finger touched Ox’s forehead, and a hint of vitality seeped into it.
Ox’s cultivation progress surprised Roger, so he deemed it appropriate to offer a reward to this earliest follower.
Given Roger’s current abilities, even a rapid progress wouldn’t harm Ox’s foundation.
Who knows how much time passed before Ox regained his senses.
By then he had already clearly perceived the drastic changes within his body.
That burgeoning power almost reached the limit of his control.
"You can become stronger, have more!"
"This world might belong to the nobles, perhaps the future federation, but in the darkness, Ox, you should become the serpent entrenched in this world."
"The king in the dark."
Ox breathed heavily, slowly lifting his head, his eyes filled with endless desire.
"Can I... can I really?"
Roger smiled, placing a hand on Ox’s shoulder.
"Of course, because this is what I allow."
