When I can't be a ghost swordsman, I become a monster hunter

Chapter 4 Dragon's Brilliant Flame
"Delicious!" Ye Qi's eyes flashed with surprise. After returning to Sasha's house, Sasha prepared dinner for him. There were not many styles, just a bowl of stewed meat and a bowl of mushroom soup.When Sasha served these two foods, she still had a look of shame on her face. Her family was very poor, and this was already the best food she could come up with.Fortunately, Ye Qi didn't care. He picked up the bowl and took a bite of the stewed meat, and suddenly found that the taste was far beyond his imagination.

"It's really delicious." Ye Qi took another sip, and his expression of surprise grew stronger. "That's great." Seeing Ye Qi's continuous praise, Sasha had a satisfied smile on her face. She stood beside Ye Qi, staring blankly at the young but honorable Master Hunter. boy.

"What is this?" Ye Qi looked at the stewed meat in the bowl, the amount of meat was not much, but the fineness of the meat was different from any kind of meat he had ever seen.

"My lord, this is the meat of Marutori," Sasha said with a smile.

"Marutori ground meat? I see." Ye Qi remembered that Marutori should be regarded as the most basic monster in the world of Monster Hunter. Not only does it not pose any threat to humans, but it is often domesticated as livestock or means of transportation.However, according to the current situation in Hunter King Village, is Maru Bird still domesticated?Ye Qi glanced at Sasha subconsciously at this moment, and found that she was staring blankly at the broth in his hand, with involuntary longing flashing in her eyes.

"...Sasha, don't you want to eat?" Ye Qi asked.

"No, no need, I'm not hungry." Sasha said with twinkling eyes. "Sasha, is there any more in this stew pot?" Ye Qi frowned and asked.Under Ye Qi's gaze, Sasha shook her head slowly, and then said in a low voice: "This is the last Xiaomaru bird in the village. The village chief asked me to prepare it for you. After all, you are a hunter. We can't treat you badly." you."

"There is no such thing as an adult, I only know that we are all equal." Ye Qi said, after thinking for a while, he went to the side to get another bowl, and shared half of the stewed meat with Sasha. "Here, let's eat together." He handed the bowl to Sasha. "This, how can this be, this is used by everyone in the village to entertain you..."

"I won't eat it if you don't eat it." Ye Qi said directly, "And don't worry, don't worry, I will let everyone eat meat soon, so you can eat it with peace of mind."

"Your Excellency." Sasha's eyes lit up, and she looked at Ye Qi in surprise and joy. "I'm not a hunter, I promise, I will bring the village back to prosperity." Ye Qi promised.

"Thank you, thank you." Sasha couldn't help but shed tears and said emotionally.

"By the way, we are about the same age, don't call me an adult, it always feels weird, just call me Ye Qi." Ye Qi said.

"How can I do that! You are a noble hunter, and you are different from us. How can I call you by your name directly?" Sasha, with bright eyes and tears in her eyes, has a charming and delicate beauty, but she still shakes her head firmly.Judging by Sasha's appearance, he would not agree to be called by his name. Ye Qi felt a little headache. After all, he came from the modern earth, and he was just an ordinary student. Naturally, he was not used to others calling him that.

"How about I call you young master." Sasha saw Ye Qi's hesitation and entanglement, and said softly after thinking for a while. "Master?" Ye Qi was taken aback, but looking at Sasha's persistent eyes, he knew that this was the limit of her compromise, so he nodded and said, "Okay, just do as you say."

"Yes, master!" Sasha smiled, seeing her smile, Ye Qi couldn't help laughing too: "Then eat with peace of mind." He pushed the bowl in front of Sasha and said gently. "Yeah!" Sasha nodded vigorously, took a small sip of the bowl with both hands, and the two looked at each other and smiled.Under the dim candlelight flickering, Ye Qi and Sasha drank the warm broth quietly, the atmosphere was peaceful and serene.

It was late at night, and Ye Qi was lying on the bed prepared by Sasha, looking at the light blue moonlight outside the window, feeling a little sleepless.One day has passed, although it seems that he has always been strong and has initially gained a foothold in this strange world, but he is only a young student after all, no matter how strong he is, he will still be confused and uncertain about the future fear.

"Oh, you obviously have an incredible hunting spirit, so you're actually so timid." Suddenly, in the darkness, a voice suddenly sounded, which startled Ye Qi and looked around warily.However, the room was empty, and there was no one there except for the moonlight shining in from the window.

"Hey, boy, here, here." At this time, the mysterious voice sounded again, and this time Ye Qi knew the source of the voice, it was the dragon tool that he got in the ancestral hall during the day, the The sound came from this dragon tool. "Who are you? You can talk?" Ye Qi stared at the slender weapon and asked cautiously.

"Hahaha, don't be so vigilant, my name is Huangyan, this is my name." A reply came from the dragon tool.

"Huang...yan...what's your name, what are you?" Ye Qi became more vigilant facing the dragon tool. "Boy, don't be so hostile to me. I'm not your enemy. I'm nothing. More precisely, I'm the soul of this dragon tool." Huang Yan replied.

"The soul of the dragon tool? What joke are you kidding, how could such a thing happen." Ye Qi didn't believe Huang Yan's words at all.

"Hmph, I don't miss out on my ignorance, everything in the world has spirits, why can't dragon tools give birth to souls? Besides, among the seven levels of dragon tools, which one of the top seven-star dragon tools doesn't have a soul? "Huang Yan snorted coldly.

"Seven-star Dragon Tool?" Ye Qi discovered another knowledge point that he didn't understand.

"The star rating is the classification of dragon tools. According to their strength, they are divided into seven levels, ranging from one star to seven stars, among which seven stars are the pinnacle of dragon tools." Huang Yan seemed to know that Ye Qi knew nothing about hunters. Know, so explain to him.

"Then since you are the tool soul of the dragon tool, then you are also the seven-star dragon tool?" Ye Qi squinted at Huang Yan.

"...One Star..." At this moment, Huang Yan's voice softened. "What? I can't hear you."

"Yixing! You bastard!" Huang Yan became furious, and kept shaking the blade in protest.

"How can a one-star dragon tool give birth to a weapon soul, you are really strange." Ye Qi said while rubbing his chin.

"Hmph, I sacrificed to become a one-star just to stay. Otherwise, at my level back then, I would be famous even among the seven-star dragon tools." After being silent for a while, Huang Yan sighed.

"Stay here?" Ye Qi frowned, and then asked, "Is it the work of that hunting king?"

"He is the most talented hunter I have ever seen, and he is also the most affectionate hunter. It is a pity that his whole body is defeated by these two words. However, before he died, he thought about his hometown and worried about the place where he was born. There will be no one to protect the place, so I was allowed to stay in a special way. It's just that as the years go by, my power is depleted more and more, and finally I have to fall into a deep sleep. And this time, it's you The boy's strange hunting spirit awakened me, and I was able to see the light of day again."

"My hunting spirit is so weird..." Ye Qi muttered. "Hehe, one kind of breath is like the bright sun, which can burn everything, while the other breath is like the deep cold, which can freeze everything. Each kind of breath is far better than the hunting spirits I have seen before, and it makes people feel afraid .”

"Twin breath? Could it be...Taiji Heavenly Emperor Sword?" Ye Qi thought to himself, at this time he became interested in hunting souls. After all, Sasha and the others are not hunters, and they are all in a state of half-knowledge about hunting souls. There is a guy who calls himself the soul of the tool, why not get information from it. "You keep talking about hunting souls, what use is hunting souls for us?"

Huang Yan was very straightforward, and began to explain to Ye Qi: "Boy, let me give you an inappropriate analogy. There is a lake in front of you, and your cabin is beside the lake. When one day you How do you put out a fire when your cabin is on fire?"

"Of course it uses lake water..." Ye Qi said as a matter of course. "Then how are you going to use the lake water? Hold it in your palm? Or find a container?" Huang Yan interrupted him and asked. "...Then it's natural to find a container... I understand that Hunting Soul is like a container for us to use the lake water."

"Hehe, the boy is very smart. Do you know that the lake I mentioned refers to the elemental power that is everywhere in this world, and the hunting soul is the container we use to use these elemental powers. The more the container If you are big, you can use more elemental power and become stronger. This is why people with hunting souls can become the most noble profession in the world." Huang Yan said: "And the hunter's becoming stronger is simply It’s about making the hunting soul stronger.”

"So, the different forms of hunting souls are also the result of continuous evolution to carry elemental power?" Ye Qi asked curiously.

"That's right, there were more forms of hunting souls at the beginning, but not all of them are suitable for controlling elemental power, and the survival of the fittest in nature has made human hunting souls continue to evolve, and finally fixed at twelve. Among the forms that are most suitable for containing the power of the elements."

"Twelve weapons?" Ye Qi asked.

"That's right, this is the foundation of the twelve types of hunting souls. Almost all hunting souls use these twelve weapons as their basic form. Of course, it would be even better if the form could be more biased towards two or more forms of hunting souls." They are rare and powerful, because they represent the ability to control more psychic powers. Just like your hunting soul, it looks like a sword but not a sword, like a sword but not a sword, a weapon that combines the three forms of a one-handed sword, a great sword and a Taidao, The future development will definitely be extraordinary." Huang Yan said with a smile.
